Man it wasn’t even an arc, they didn’t mention the gorn at all this season except for this episode right?

Idk, it was pretty predictable and it’s still not clear to me why writers who seemingly can’t do better than blatantly rip off Alien deserve to be at the helm.
Get Stephen Baxter and IDK Arkady Martine on the writing team as consultants ASAP because this show needs help. People deserve more interesting sci fi than this.

They’ve been building up the Gorn conflict since early in season 1, did you literally just start watching? Can you remind me how Hemmer died?

At a minimum the script editor should have asked the writers hard questions about the Chapel and Batel subplots to justify.
I would have dropped the two subplots and used the screen time on La’an who was strangely reduced to giving color commentary for an episode that she should have been front and center on.
