    The script described him initially as (outraged), then a few seconds later as (bored). He's clearly recognised Worf's presence as a provocation.

  • It isn't Picard that's trying to disqualify him. That was K'pec's orders, strictly. Picard was just cooperating. Commented Aug 6, 2020 at 2:24

    And this fits in with Gowron's ultimate fate; the whole reason Gowron initiated the duel with Worf is again because he read the room and realized that the other Klingon leaders, if not voicing it openly, also weren't defending him from Worf's accusations, and he knew he'd lost them, so accepting a challenge was the only way he could pull something out of the fire. Martok had earlier explicitly declared Gowron as a politician rather than a warrior, and Gowron's other appearances, such as how he dealt with the clone of Kahless when Worf suggested a way out, showed a savvy political operator.
