Striker Joel Grant swept home his fourth goal in four games on 14th minute after two brilliant off-the-line saves by Dean Brill denied Antoni Sarcevic and on-loan Rangers target man Zak Rudden.
Rudden doubled Argyle’s lead on 17 minutes stooping to steer a superb glancing header to meet and greet George Cooper’s pacey cross from the left. It was the targetman's first Football league goal, and one to remember.
Argyle’s best attacking - and swift passing - move of the game resulted in wing back Callum McFadzean cutting inside from the left to send a low, measured shot past Brill to make it 3-0 on 34 minutes.
Rampant Argyle increased their lead in first half stoppage time as another whipped-in Cooper cross from the left came off Joe Widdrow’s back and bounced in, followed in by Rudden.
Argyle’s newest acquisition Billy Clarke fired over after another sweeping move on 82 minutes.
Orient – managed by former Argyle boss and midfielder Carl Fletcher – fared better in the second half with substitute Louis Dennis hitting the post on 87 minutes with an angled shot.
