That is kind of Worf's character arc. He is constantly seen as unworthy by the Klingon elite for not living up to their standards, but he's actually the only one who is still striving for the ideals of honor that none of them actually believe in anymore. His character resolution is to stop trying to gain their approval, and instead follow the values they only pay lip service to.

The Klingon Chef is such a great background character, and you can see a lot about him though just his unspoken actions. My favorite is one point you can see him playing the according while singing to his patrons. I always imagine all Klingons have the same thoughts about what they do as the warriors do. The Lawyers and Scientists, Chefs and Gardeners dedicate them in bringing honour and glory to their houses through their accomplishments. Their society values martial powerness but at the same time knows that a society ruled only by bloodshed cannot grow. It can be the basis of goverment though.

I don't think Kang, Koloth, and Kor just _happen_ to be best buds... I think it was _inevitable._ Each was a high ranking military commander who survived conflict with Kirk, during the height of the Klingon Empire. Surely these famous warriors would meet at some Imperial function; they would have shared experience to bond over while slamming mugs of blood wine.

This is my head cannon about why the three original series Klingon are best friends. In there careers they were all assigned to patrol/operate in the same sector of space where they all had run ins with Kirk. While patrolling said section of spaces they were each others backup and gained a respect for each other and became a strong unit of brother Captains.

My favorite thing about "Blood Oath" is the realization that, back in the day, Curzon Dax was probably the himbo in that crew. While the other 3 were crossing paths (and sometimes swords) with Kirk, Dax was probably counting poker chips he'd won off them the night before 😆

Re: Martok and Sirella Recall that in TNG, Worf describes how during courtship, the woman screams and hurls heavy objects, while the man reads love poetry, and ducks a lot.

@Yora21 Жыл бұрын

The whole thing about man doing manly things on the battlefield being the most important thing about their status and pride is because that's the place where they are all away from their wives and mothers. And throughout history across the world, the homes of knights and lords were often run by their wives full time. The old lady who taught my Japanese class said it was still quite common in Japan to hand over their whole wage to their wives who manage the household finances and then give them an allowance to spend for themselves. Which plays into why history recording was mostly about wars. That's the aspect of life where the boys were among themselves, telling stories about how cool and dominant they are.

One of the things I've always found compelling about House of Quark is how it shows the unexpected similarity of Klingon and Ferengi values. Both Quark and Grilka take it for granted that it's totally legitimate for D'Ghor to try to take what belongs to Grilka--as long as he goes about it the right way. For Grilka, this means taking it by force; for Quark, it means being clever and out-maneuvering everyone.

When I was a kid and watching through DS9 for the first time, my friend spoiled for me that Jadzia would die, which I was very upset about because I like Jadzia and I hate spoilers. But that gave me a unique viewing experience. When I reached 'Change of heart', I fully believed that this was it. She was going to die. The characters go through near death experiences all the time but you never expect the main cast members to actually die usually; but knowing she would eventually die made that episode WAY more tense than it would've otherwise been. And when she didn't die, I got to be overjoyed at being wrong about her demise. Honestly, being spoiled improved my enjoyment of that episode tenfold.

Just realized something. Worf was deeply connected with Martok's family. Joined his House, Martok and his Wife was represented at his wedding, but someone is missing. Martok's son. Remember him? He showed up at the first Episode of the Way of the Warrior, he and his flunkies beat up Garak, and Worf bitch slapped him and took his dagger just to get "Martok"'s attention. We never see Martok's son again. You would think that would have been an interesting story arc of his constant hostility woth Worf, chafing against him joining his house, how close he was getting with his father, maybe jealously as how Martok seemingly dotes on him more than his own son. Perhaps he could have been a turncoat to the Dominion because of it. Don't you hate it when Sons and Daughters just disappear....... BTW Worf, How's Alexander? Ever hear from him after your wedding?

I find it interesting that he is from an extremely misogynistic society and often outwardly agrees with it yet consistently is attracted to strong, independent women. Outside of Ezri, though most of the people attracted to Ezri seem to just be transposing their love of Jadzia. But, yeah, Quark wants Ferangi women to be naked in the home and every other woman to throw him across the room.

I LOVE your impressions of Gowron! You sound so much like him, it's eerie! It was huge shock when Worf was forced to kill him, but there was clearly no other choice. Gowron was allowing his jealousy of Martok to lead him into an unforgivable waste of the Empire's resources, both in personnel and ships. That Sisko practically ordered Worf to do it showed how much Sisko had changed, such that he gave an order to a Starfleet officer to take a direct hand in the Empire's internal politics.

With Worf working with Martok, he would explain why he became a governor of a small moon from the last episode of TNG. Though he can still die in the Klingon council hall, that leads to Alexander going back in time.

I can forgive Kang, Kor and Koloth all knowing one another, as from TOS it seems they all were fairly prominent commanders along the same part of the frontier with the Federation at generally the same time. Given that, it is not unreasonable to assume they knew each other. A bit more implausible they are also friends, but my head cannon is that they met commiserating over losing to Kirk and bonded.

@glamourweaver 3 ай бұрын

Only Koloth really lost to Kirk (and at a plot that TNG DS9 era Klingons would disdain as conniving Romulan political manipulation unworthy of a warrior at that). Kor and Kirk jointly lost to the Organians, and Kang and Kirk jointly beat the energy being feeding off them. Unless of course you’re pointing to non-screen media. I think they all crossed paths with him more times in novels.

I suspect the writers of Strange New Worlds may be avoiding Klingons because, depending on the canon you're following, they're either basically blackface-style TOS Klingons (thanks Enterprise and "Trials and Tribble-ations"), the controversial redesign of Discovery, or a potential continuity glitch. I imagine none of these options is particularly appetizing to SNW's writers. Also, yes Worf did have to kill Gowron. It was a Klingon battle of honor and there's no way Gowron would have yielded. You also didn't mention that Worf was under implicit orders to do so - "Do whatever it takes, Mister Worf. Those Klingon ships out there are the only thing between us and the Breen. Gowron is risking the safety of the entire Alpha Quadrant and he has to stop." While Sisko didn't tell Worf to kill Gowron, killing Gowron was well within his remit. It also made Worf one of the most significant Klingons in the Empire's recent history. EDIT: And just hours after I said that first paragraph, the season 2 trailer for SNW proves me wrong.

It is actually worse because he had at least conscented (scratch that... demanded) a suicide in accordance to his traditions. What they did to him was to insult his beliefs and then murder him. Picard would have totally let Worf kill his brother like he should have. Worf should have just taken Kurn with him to the Enterprise on one of those random visits he always ends up doing in the TNG movies and done the ritual. Then, if anyone on DS9 asks why Kurn did not come back from the Enterprise, tell them he's living in a farm.

You do a spot-on Gowron impression. I am impressed. ..... No pun intended.

Missed a trick on the Kurn bit. "Yes but in my defence he really wanted me to" should have been "Yes but in my defence he was really asking for it."

As a mainenance worker, the part about not just expecting the engineers to do what they're told, you have to coddle them, is very on point for real life maintenance workers, myself included

I like your videos. I should be working right now but I’m watching this instead. I hope you are proud of yourself. Mr complicit in my not doing my job.

Re: the Klingon Chef - I always assumed that gagh comes in some kind of sauce or broth. Like, the main thing is the worms, and probably Klingons will eat them unseasoned, especially when they're fresh. But, in a restaurant (especially a kind of fast food-y place at a space station that serves a lot of different species)... maybe you'd expect some extra stuff then.
