I don’t think he saw it as nonsense as much as begrudging respect.

@@loginbrags7016 Nah, he reveals in the Episode where Worf tries to kill his brother to restore his honour, that he thinks Klingon traditions are nonsense. He tolerates it usually due to wanting to encourage diversity, but he draws the line at what he considers premeditated murder.

I think it's funnier when Work reacts with surprise and a hasty Q'apla in return.

I've always sensed that Sisko regarded the Klingons as honorable warriors, but too stuck in their traditions to move beyond that. They are a great people, a vast and powerful empire, but they'll never reach the level of unity and advancement as the Federation.

Sisko should have brought up the Roman Empire. And to show that humans once knew about being a warrior. That two warriors need not say much. As they know much about each other already. Would make a good history lesson for Worf. To show that humans can be warrior like and an advanced civilization.

That is Leskit, he becomes a main character in the Klingon Empire book series. A very likable character.

@@kdrapertrucker aka Tackleberry from Police Academy....

Sadly, the actor died a couple of years after this episode. He was Amelia Earhart’ Scott copilot in “The 37s” episode in Voyager.

@@keithtorgersen9664 also played Officer Tackleberry in the Police Academy movies.

Every kill begins with K 🤣😂😆 That's gold

"There's no human word for it..." Oh lemme try: "Don't believe in yourself Worf. Believe in the me that believes in you. Grit your teeth and kick logic to the curb, that's how Team Dai-Klingon rolls!"

Yeah, but he doesn't know that. :)

Yes but keep in mind in this setting the last action movie humans saw was over 200 years ago. Not to mention we have no idea how much of Earth's media was lost during WWIII, the Eugenics War, or the 2nd American Civil War.

So we’re all just proving that there ain’t a human word for it eh lol

@Sunday Girl Terran Empire fell bc Spock reformed it into something else

It did once function like that. And they did realize it was a mistake. It stated to be that every ship was being captained by an excellent dualist, but not necessarily a good pilot or tactician. So the current system started forming

Which ultimately would have collapsed without Spock using Kirk's device to seize power (which unfortunately did little good as the Klingon/Caradssian alliance conquerored them soon afterwards).

Pirate captains were often elected.

Real pirate ships did most things by vote. The captain was elected, but he only had command in battle- otherwise most things were decided by consensus. The quarter master often had more say than him. They even had contracts- that would cover compensation if you were wounded on duty or killed (in which case, your family would get the compensation.) what duties you were expected to perform, and how many shares you'd receive after the cost of ship maintenance. (most people would only get a single share, though skilled labor like carpenters and leadership roles like the captain would get a little bit more. Usually the highest or second highest paid job would go to the doctor- reason being that it was hard to find doctors willing to sign on with pirates.) There wasn't terms of service because often times, anyone who wanted to stop being a pirate would just leave when they made port. It's not like there is anything the crew could do to stop them. It basically had to be this way, because Pirates didn't have the backing of a nation that would enforce the rules in the event of say, a mutiny.

Sisko's mind: "Ugh, more Klingon bullshit, just nod along Ben, nod along. Say Qapla when he's done."

She's an agent of chaos!

Captain, snark readings are off the scale...

a well written role played by a good actress.

Your brother waits for you at the gates of Sto'vo'kor!

Terry Farrell did a good job with the character. I liked Ezri too but we didn’t get to see as much of her.

Difference between giving up and accepting defeat. Worf planned on giving up. To not fight back and be killed. It's unknown if the Jem'Hadar would have actually killed Work or not. Maybe he was going to attack a guard and get shot. When Martok told Worf to stay down, he said honor was satisfied. Worf proved he had honor and bravery even though he was defeated. He fought bravely even though he succumb to his injuries. Had Work accepted defeat and stayed down, the fight would have been over and Worf taken back to his cell.

I presume that as they were in a time of war, relieving the Klingons of their weapons was more trouble than it was worth and may have discouraged cohesion, as opposed to Lursa and B'etor who showed up in peace time AND were known criminals who Oda forced to give up their weapons.

@@thesweetman9414 he did tell him honor has been satisfied and to stay down. The Jem'Hadar surrendered saying all he can do is kill Worf and that no longer held his interest

STAR TREK 5 " SHE HAS WONDERFUL MUSCLES "

Some Klingons are weak and some are Strong

Did you not watch the video? "The Klingons are as diverse a people as any, some are strong and some are weak." So why would they all be ripped body builders?

@@valoredramack9117 Because audiences expect all members of an alien race to look and behave exactly the same, and follow the same belief systems, with no variations. It's called the... Planet of Hats rule or trope. It's actually kind of racist, when you really think about it.

@@valoredramack9117 I don't think he meant all Klingons should be body builders. More that if you are wearing a sleeveless leather top you at least need to have ripped arms to try and be credible as a warrior archetype. As it is he looks more like someone from a gay bar in 1980s Soho.

In fairness we do meet Klingon Lawyers, Klingon Monks, and Klingon Scientists

@@oldmanmammoth5364 The Great Khan had all of those as well. Klingon culture is dominated by a strong warrior class, so all industry is geared primarily toward more efficient ways of combat, and combat preparation.

No system could survive with just Warriors, nothing would get done. They need doctors, farmers, engineers, and administrators too.

@@FerretJohn They have all of that, and it primarily supports the warrior caste.

@@FerretJohn klingon empire has subject races

Can't die? Tell me you haven't watched this show without telling me you haven't watched this show. So i guess the mirror odo didn't die by a bajoran phaser blast in Crossover. The Changling in the Adversary didn't get fried and rurn to ash after Odo forced him onto the unshiekded warcore? The Martok changling that exploded in Apocalypse rising, i guess he never died either right? The Changling in The Ship didn't die from injuries suffered from inertial dampener failure and turned to ash infront of Sisko and Dax either? And lastly the Bashir Changling that was on The Yukon when it exploded in by Inferno's light, it never died either, right? 😂😂😂😂😂

Klingons see it as a child's uniform so she kept it on to get some laughs.
