    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      According to a DVD interview, Vaughn Armstrong was called shortly before shooting and told he was needed to fill the role of the Klingon Commander. The most challenging aspect of this sudden call, in his opinion, was having to deliver the Klingon language so precisely so as to not upset established Klingon language guidelines.
    • Goofs
      The schematic that the away team examined to find the port fusion injector showed the right side of the ship. Port in naval terms is left, not right.
    • Quotes

      Bu'kaH: I've never seen your kind before, but you have made an enemy of the Klingon Empire!

      Captain Jonathan Archer: From what I've noticed, that's not hard to do.

    Dealing with Klingons is always a treat. Probably the worst thing you can do is to help these guys. T'Pol once again knows what is best. They should have left the ship and let them go to the happy hunting ground. As far as I can tell, they have absolutely no redeeming qualities. Malcolm is the bleeding heart this time. Supposedly, they are to respect other cultures, but he feels he has to impose his own prejudices and is almost responsible for the demise of the away team. All that aside. After seeing hundreds of hours of Star Trek film, I've had plenty of Klingon experiences presented to me. This episode give some insight into their basic existence. For example, the food they eat. Why is it that every aspect of their existence is disgusting. The gobble up worms. They eat bloody soup. They have animal carcasses festering on hooks. Wouldn't it be funny if we found out that their favorite avocation was the ballet. Anyway, the stench on their vessel would be beyond belief.
