History[]
On the Orville[]
Bolobar worked aboard the Orville under Lieutenant Biggins. Although he had been prepared by Talla Keyali, Biggins objected to Bolobar showing up to work completely naked. He explained this to Commander Kelly Grayson, who told Bolobar that she was going to have to ask him to put on a uniform. He objected to this, explaining that the wearing of clothing on the first day of the month was considered an affront to the Spirit Lord. She told him that a uniform was a basic requirement for service in the fleet and he objected, pointing out that Lieutenant Unk of engineering did not wear a uniform. She replied that Unk was so large he would have to wear a tent. Bolobar pointed out that the Planetary Union was supposed to respect all cultural traditions. She then offered the compromise of putting on pants and remaining naked from the waist up, which he agreed to.[1]
