Seems like they're setting the Gorn up to be the heavy in this season - and perhaps the nastiest baddies ever (at least the Klingons and Borg didn't actually eat prisoners). Looking forward to seeing how they're actually portrayed when they actually show them. Could be something they're saving for the season finale.
I took it as a one off and I'm hoping they continue to keep this episodic, maybe in the next one they are leaving space drydock for much needed repair/maintenance and leave it at that. I'm not too interested in fleshing out the Gorn because that horrible fight scene and that terrible costume in ST:TOS is iconic.
