The Second Best Hospital in the Galaxy season 1 recap

Ad

Viewers meet alien surgeons Dr. Sleech and Dr. Klak in season 1 of The Second Best Hospital in the Galaxy. Their missions to treat people all over the galaxy are similar to the emotional and mental problems people face in real life.

Strange illnesses that happen in space, workplace drama, and deeper mental health commentary were all part of the show, with Dr. Klak's battle with anxiety getting a lot of attention.

Ad

In order to get rid of her anxiety, Klak implants a parasitic worm into her brain, which is a major plot point. It turns out that this worm, Larvin, is part of a mutated species that was harmed by toxic waste from the UniYum corporation.

Larvin's past shows how a species went from being peaceful helpers to an endless source of danger. As Larvin starts to cause trouble, Sleech, Klak, and their coworkers step in to stop him, but they are eventually eaten by the worm.

Inside Larvin, they take away the mutation from his children, creating a new way to treat anxiety. Klak, on the other hand, can't benefit because her brain is damaged. She comes to terms with her illness, showing that getting better doesn't always mean making changes. Sometimes it just means accepting what is. Larvin gives up his life to give his species hope, and Sleech and Klak are praised as heroes.

The baby worms' anti-UniYum feelings at the end of season 1 hinted at possible future conflicts and a darker tone.
