The whole ensemble got something to do, except Ortegas who slowly turns into SNW’s Travis Mayweather: that one cast member that is just there physically but doesn’t get anything to do.

I get the feeling the writers don't really know what to do with Ortegas beyond that she "flies the ship".

"I fly the ship"

She also delivers the many one-line commentaries on dire situations. It's funny at first, but it does get old pretty quickly.
