For a race of honorable warriors, they like to go invisible and shoot people in the back a lot.
All’s fair in love and war
LOL, they can't fire while Cloaked. So its more like shooting at someone then taking cover.
@@IN-tm8mw Well, except for that ONE time...
There’s no honor in defeat
"Honorable" tends to be used as a justification for doing whatever the hell they want - so long as they win. Such it is with a *lot* of "honorable" cultures in fiction.
“Captain, I have another option. Beam tribbles into their engine room!” 🤣😝
Get thee down, Satan!
A federation starship will not be a party to war crimes with me as its captain.
Tribble strike > triple strike
The Klingon warrior doesn't torture.
Lol
One of the few times Worf's idea got taken up. Go big or go home.
I was just thinking that lol. Probably the only time nobody said no lol
One of the best things about DS9 adding Worf was how much he got to do AS an officer. He was listened to, respected, and commanded.
@@glenndallas7171 It was probably because almost of all the solutions he presented was opening fire. This was like the only time he ever gave Picard a solution that didn't involve arming the phasers and photon torpedoes.
@@rickym5474 when you're a hammer every problems a nail
So… what was his alternative idea?
Riker: "They´ve cloaked themselves."
Picard: "How did you know, Number 1?"
Riker: "They've cloaked themselves"
Data: "Oops, sorry, I turned the viewscreen off"
Riker: Maybe it's the fact that they just faded out of sight right in front of us after shooting the ship?
Poor Jonathan Frakes. The writers often had him stating the obvious, which just made his character look stupid.
Nice to see Riker get a promotion to his new rank of Captain Obvious.
Plot twist: Riker was covering for Troi. There can only be two people flanking the Captain.
"This may be the only chance you'll get".
As if a Klingon ship from 80 years prior would be any match for the Enterprise-D.
I always took that statement as a matter of being forced to engage them in battle, which is what they wanted to avoid.
Unless of course they had the plot and sheild harmonics on their side
Then even an ancient bird of prey can destroy a galaxy class star trek generations
@@drrohanjacob But only if the writers forget that a Galaxy class is capable of rotating its shield frequencies like the Enterprise did several times in the series.
@@HariSeldon913 True
T T, I think that was more because of the mission those Klingons had - to attack defenseless colony posts. If the threat was not stopped immediately, there was no clue as to how long it would be until casualties started piling up.
A farm dog does not fear a fox for its strength, only for what it can do to the chickens around. I hope that answers the question, even if it’s only my interpretation.
Can we talk about how great K’eylehr’s outfit is?
It is illegally 🔥
Yes we can 🎉
Suzie Plaxton was HOT whatever she was wearing. Klingon, Vulcan, Q, she rocked it all!
It's not the outfit, it's what's in it.
Riker *definitely* wants to talk about it. Watch him at 0:14.
0:12 Riker giving K'Ehleyr a good long once over.
Can you blame him? Suzie Plakson is the sexiest Klingon ever.
I missed that all these years. Riker is always Riker
Riker is willing to get injured for some good Kligon...
Riker wouldn't be the first to admire the physical presence of a Klingon woman...
Pavel Chekov once commented admirably on the musculature of a Klingon chick named Vixis...(Star Trek V - The Final Frontier)
@@Robert_Douglass
I think that was more intimidation than admiration. It was the only honest compliment he could think of; he's almost sweating bullets when he says it.
Trivia note: The ensign at the conn would later go on to be the Commander-in-Chief of Starfleet that cusses out a retired Jean-Luc Picard.
Was she also the lady Irish planet with goats and asked to breed with other humans that had been cloning to the point they could not clone anymore. Ricker got with her?
@@trueconservative5982 No, different actress.
She also played Helen Hunts sister in Mad about you.
holy shit. i thought she was the same age as picard. here she looks like about 12
What js her name?
Riker: "They've cloaked themselves!"
Picard: "Really?!! Are you sure?"
If only Kurn had been onboard. “Very GOOD, Commander!”
@@BPond7 Maybe he could have brought some of the burnt replicated bird?!
Riker is hanging around with Deanna too much.
everyone should have shouted no shit Sherlock.
*entire bridge crew sees them cloak
Riker: They've cloaked themselves.
"What an odd thing to say."
I love the early 80s-afied scores of Season 1-2 pretty funny considering they gave that sound up once the decade ended
Of course I might be in error." Poor Data wasnt used to being wrong.
Data gets instant karma'd
To be fair, he does get better at it with experience...
"Let them die like Klingons."
Lady, to die at the hands of your ally is no honorable death.
I like these scenes. watching people walk to what is obviously a stage mark.
I'm pretty sure that's every single TV show, movie, short, ever made...
_However, I could be in error_
Worf actually did not suggest shooting and blowing up the ship. 😂
Love the piano at the end. You can actually hear the individual parts.
I always thought it would have been better and more accurate if the Klingons in the K'T'Igna were TOS style Klingons. And it'd have been more amusing too.
At the time this episode was made, the in universe assumption was that the Klingons always looked like their movie/TNG style makeup design. TBH as much as the Enterprise storyline officially reconciling the two was a fun bit of fan service, I think that was probably the right choice.
@@user-do2ev2hr7h It wasn't just Enterprise. It was alluded to in DS9 as well during Trials and Tribbilations. ( ua-cam.com/video/rA210N8Y1iM/v-deo.html )
@@TheTurnipKing Yeah but that was kind of a canon breaking (or at least bending) joke episode. Personally I've always felt that while they were re-compositing the DS9 actors into the old footage, they should have just gotten a bunch of extras and dressed them up in the TOS Klingon uniforms with the modern makeup to replace the original actors.
I know it's a controversial position, but I've always felt it's a bit tedious to try to shoehorn in in universe explanations for things that are obviously real world production issues.
The original reason for the ridgeless klingons was lack of makeup budget. It is the same reason the Borg ended up as Cyborgs, rather then insectoids as planned.
In "The Motion Picture" was the first time they had the money for proper makeup and they have used the design ever since - with the usual variations.
"Trials and Tribblelations" could have choosen just to have Worf look like their contemporaries in the past. They did most of the shooting on TOS era film material and TOS lighting, so it would not have been a filmographic stretch.
But they choose to aknowledge the difference instead, resulting in the need for the ENT Episode that explained it.
The look on Worf's face would have been priceless.
1:38 -1:52 Worf solves the whole episode in 15 seconds, while starfleet couldn't bean it out in a week.
Suzie Plakson was such a babe in these.
She's one of my many Star Trek crushes. That woman was a knockout.
Pretty sick drumbeat going on at the beginning there.
I feel like had Worf not proposed his novel and theatrical trick, it makes me wonder what the more conventional alternative would be. Engage them head on, explain the situation whilst noting that you have no expectation that they will believe nor comply, appeal to their sense of honour when they inevitably fight against overwhelming odds anyway (disabling only their weapons and warp capability, then let them sit tight and wait for the other Klingon ship to arrive. So long as they're no so offended that they actually commit ritual suicide first (is that a thing for klingons?), then it'd just be a case of tailing some grouchy klingons stranded in space.
Considering the age of the Klingon ship, there probably wasn't much they'd have been able to do in regards to battle.
"You and your damn options" - K`Ehleyr
Oh FFS....you cut it there? I bet you're the kind of person who turns off Sultans of Swing just before the guitar solo
That would make me signal SoS.
Riker "They've cloaked themselves" Thank you captain obvious.
That’s Commander Obvious to you
If Troi had been there "I sense they've cloaked"
@@richardtawse8613 Ok they turned invisible...What now..?
@@krishelfferich3487 🤣🤣🤣
@@lrecollet lol thanks 😋
The fact that the Capt entertained Worfs auggestion shows how good of a captain he was
Have that Klingon wrapped and sent to my room…No Worf not you..The other spunky one.
KayLar was an amazing character big mistake killing her off
"theyve cloaked themselves"
riker is a frickin genius
I immediately reacted to that, thinking they must’ve put that in the script as dialogue instead whatever the tv version of “stage directions” are.
It’s oddly out-of-place.
WOW, what a great rack of, uh, disruptors.
Damn, but is Suzie Plakson even hotter as a Klingon, or what.
Amen. I remember being a pre-teen when I first saw this back in the 90s.
Had no idea what I was feeling, but I was feeling it everytime she was on screen.😈❤💘
idk dude, but i can attest that she is pretty
She tends to be a hottie no matter what she plays.
and she played two different species in TNG ..... a Klingon and a Vulcan.
@@dhinton1 she also played a Q.
So three species.
"YOU have another option?" => The look of everyone on the bridge.
The Helmswoman / pilot is Anne Elizabeth Ramsay, She played Lisa Stemple on Mad About You. Suzie Plakson , Klingon K'Ehleyr, was also on Mad About You.
Anne Elizabeth Ramsay also portrayed Starfleet Chief of Staff Admiral Clancy in Star Trek Picard...
@@Robert_Douglassis she the one that told Picard "sheer fkng hubris!"?
@@JohnS-il1dr That would be the one...
Worf is like the most respectable person in the whole series
TRUE !
Thank you is Ezre Dax
They contracted the composer of Miami Vice for this episode.
Not sure if Suzie Plakson made a hotter Klingon or Vulcan back in the day.
Leaning towards Dr. Selar
I liked her as the female Q.
She wasn't so hot as Tarah in ST:E, imo.
Didn't that helm officer eventually get ahead of Picard in rank and become Starfleet Chief of Staff after he retired?
That is the joke going around. I don't think it's supposed to be the same character though. Also, I don't hear her dropping multiple F bombs.
What's this? Did she?!
The Kamala Harris technique of career advancement still works in the future.
@@malcolmt7883 Some people really need to make everything political.
-- (sotto voce) Oh, the fucking hubris....
- Mind your language, helmsman, or you may just find yourself keeping that rank throughout your career...
-- Oops...sorry, sir, did I say that out loud?
--If you can keep from doing it again in the meantime, I hope you get to say it out loud later...
Ok, the expression of the helmswoman at 0:40 is priceless
Wharfs brilliant option will save those klingonlives
@frodo roo too
Did you just spell this mans name wrong?
@frodo roo it's why I fly KLM
@@yianniassimakis2285 sorry i didnt watched much of next gen enterprise. I really dislike Q . I went after hearing and guessed the name and please, do not explain me, how his name is written
@@Kinsanth_ pretty much realized just now english isnt your first language so allow me to apologize and star trek tng is the best thank you for attending my TeD talk.
Tune in next week, folks, to hear Mr. Worf's other option…
ua-cam.com/video/rbb4IJWrm-8/v-deo.html
Always bothered me that klingons would cloak themselves before battle, more of a romulan thing to do really
“They’ve cloaked themselves.”
“You don’t say.”
I imagine that when they're older enough to fear death, elder Klingons reunite and fight in battle arenas (no nursing home like us) with parents ready to screm to the sky.
No, a Klingon fights and dies Honorably before they get too old.
Random misread right now that I love to embrace:
*Star Trek The Nerd Generation*
0:14 - riker being like OH YA
Thank you for that update Riker.
"... however, I could be in error."
This was a great episode all around.
0.51. "they cloaked" No Shit, Sherlock! XD
Exposition for the audience
Picard: We'll just promote you to admiral right now.
She had great beans!
I figured Warf would agree.. "Let them die in battle" By not doing so, they robbed them of the chance to go to Stovokor
The Dominion War provided plenty of opportunities to rectify that.
The most beautiful 😍 Klingon Woman ever ❤😍 !!!
Data: however I may be in error 😂
WHAT WAS IT?!!! THE FREACKIN' OPTION?!!!!!!!
The good 'ol days of the 50 dolla fight scene budget
They must have put some lifts in Picard's shoes. K'Ehleyr (Suzie Plakson) is four inches taller at 6' 1" and appears equal in height if not shorter.
Wharf’s tactical... “Option”...
1:19 I have noticed this thing that Lavar Burton does sometimes where he sounds like he runs out of breath in the middle of a sentence, then starts talking again. This is one example, there is another example in "the Nth degree" when hes talking to Reg on the shuttle about how its time he saw the interesting stuff. I will be on the look out for other examples.
"However, I could be in error." -Data
Now i wonder what mr Woofs plan was.

Lol Riker checking out the Klingon woman in the beginning
soundtrack so good
Riker : "they've cloaked themselves"
Picard : "No shit number 1"
0:40 the guy in the back’s reaction lol.. just another day at work I guess
_Captain... I have another option. ... ... Beans._
i just have to say that i find the positions here hilarious. worf, data, various others: at computers operating the ship. riker, picard, and lady with them: stand in the middle and strike a pose 😂😂
Enterprise D with the new Supermodel Bridge.
"They deserve to die in battle, like Klingons" Why? What have they done to deserve any special consideration?
Its not there felt there waking up in a centurie they dont undetstand
1:06 To whom is LeVar Burton gesturing when he gets off the turbo lift?
"However I *could* be in error."
*_COULD_*
Extra-funny coming from Data. Showing how he is picking up human habits.
Another option: stimulate a subspace fold with a harmonic transmission, this will completely incapacitate the Klingons. ;)
Cpt, I have ANOTHER option, offer them some EARL GREY tea!
0:06 Why is Jonathan Frakes turning his head over there?
0:13 Jonathan Frakes is checking her out.
What is the name of this episode?
The Emissary (details in the descriptions)
@@tjwparso Don't toy with him. Video descriptions are a myth told to young smartphone users to scare them.
You know, it just occurred to me that Worf is a lot like Colin Kaepernick.
Name one episode where Worf went to a knee by choice.
Worf is nothing like Colin Kaepernick, but Al Bundy is a lot like Kaepernick though.
The music in the first part of this clip sounded very Knight Rider esque to me.
Well, let's hear it Mr. Worf.
the Klingon lady is a real Babe
she plays a klingon in TNG and a Q in Voyager...
What's Mrs Q doing disguised as a Klingon
The music from this era of TNG is great
Don't get me wrong here ... love Star Trek TNG, and while I realize budget constraints often made for some cheap looking scenes it is hard to forgive when they make logistical errors as they did in this scene. Picard says to magnify 100x, which implies the Klingon ship is several light years away. As we all know, ship scanners can get information on ships dozens of light years away.
And yet, despite the seemingly faraway distance which forced Capt Picard to order 100x magnification, the Klingon ship was able to shoot photon torpedoes at the Enterprise and either hit directly or detonate close enough for the ship to feel the shockwave. Suffice it to say, I grew up on TNG and love the show despite these mistakes.
A gorgeous Klingon, who knew ?
Am I the only one who noticed Riker checking her out?
captain - i have another option .... BEANS!!! doo do do dode dooo
What's the other option?
Takes a strong woman to pull off a skin tight red cat suit like this one. Very sexy.
Worf, using guile once again.
So what was the Klingon's plan? Have a crew drift for 100 years and wake up after the war is probably over?
Send out sleeper ships that (with warp tech at the time) would take awhile to reach deep into Federation Space, keeping mostly inactive to avoid detection. They would then wake up deep in the federation rear, cause havoc, causing starfleet to divert a large number of ships from the front to deal with them. The war may have been stalemated at the time and the Klingons thought this a way to break the stalemate.

Camera
0:18 bloody hell! I spotted the female Klingon!!!
She has wonderful muscles, doesn't she? 😏
Star trek loved to forget about being able to disable ships..... all you had to do was drop their shields and beam them to the brig. or just destroy their engines and send a klingon vessel to scoop them up.

What was the other option?!

She's the hottest Klingon I've ever seen (well.. B'Etor was close too)
love her boots
Wait, is Picard actually going to listen to Worf? Say it ain't so!
Worfs klingon women was hot and probably the only female klingon that wasnt repulsive
Um , this video didn’t go where worf was going . But you’d be surprised . Too . Because it works .
Um , a spoiler , worf becomes commander of the federation flag ship (enterprise) . Now what do you think is going to happen ? That I’m not telling . But let’s just say , kaylar is surprised too . Guile .
thats one hot klingon female
A D-7 against the Enterprise D would like a ironclad against a WW2 battleship. So why are they so concerned about how dangerous the D-7 is?
I thoght cloaking was a Romulan exclusive.
Nope, IIRC the Klingons either bought or stole the tech from them
