    Edit
    • Trivia
      James Cromwell's role as the Yridian had to be significantly trimmed because he broke his leg in between filming sessions.
    • Goofs
      Worf states that the Klingons and Romulans have been "blood enemies" for centuries; however, this series takes place barely a century after Star Trek (1966), where the Klingons and Romulans were allies.
    • Quotes

      L'Kor: Why did you come here Worf? If you had found your father, you would have found... only dishonor.

      Lieutenant Worf: If he had been captured, as you were, if I had found him here - I would be glad to see him. There is no room in my heart for shame.

      L'Kor: I can only hope that if *my* son came here - he would be Klingon enough to kill me.

    Flawed reasoning
    Worf wants the Klingons to be great hunters and warriors. The young Klingon he teaches to be a hunter kills an animal. And slaps it down on a table to show everyone that he is now a great hunter. That's what you do when you want to be a hunter. You kill animals. So the warrior thing. How does that work? You've got Klingons and Romulans in this place. How does a Klingon prove he is a great warrior? Duh! Using the hunter reasoning, kill a Romulan and slap him down on the table. That the elder Klingons joined Warf and could not see the obvious flaw is dumb.
