By a lawyer.

Sa'ar Chasm 03-13-2014 09:11 PM

Yeah, I got nothing.

Zeke 03-14-2014 01:58 AM

A Klingon lawyer.

The only Klingon lawyer I recall seeing on TV was in ENT's "Judgment," but I just had to spend five minutes looking that up, so I barely remember the scene. (Trip had four lines in that ep. Trinneer was contractually required to appear in every episode, but he had been injured by Phlox's stunt guy while filming "The Crossing" the week before, so his role was very brief.)

Michael Dorn played a lawyer in Trek VI, but again I think he had two lines.

Good grief, even Phlox's stunt double was out to kill Trip!

It's not "Judgment" or Trek VI. Apparently this was not a memorable episode! (Well, I liked it anyway...)

Klingon lawyer...then it must be that DS9 episode that I wrote a fiver for all those years ago and whose name I can't recall.

Zeke 03-14-2014 10:04 PM

Right on both counts, but you'll have to remember the name or identify the episode unambiguously -- before someone else does!

Nate the Great 03-15-2014 01:17 PM

But if I look up my own fiver, that's still cheating. Someone else will have to do it from memory.

Zeke 03-16-2014 12:43 PM

I just mean tell us more about the episode -- besides "Klingon lawyer", which is begging the question. Surely you at least remember what he was on the station for.

Nate the Great 03-16-2014 01:09 PM

Worf was framed into thinking that he destroyed a defenseless ship, and this was going to be used as a political weapon.

Zeke 03-17-2014 10:39 AM

That's more like it. The episode was "Rules of Engagement" (and as the blurb indicates, I've always found it funny that the premise is so similar to the movie of that name). You're up.

"He just kept talking in one incredibly unbroken sentence, moving from topic to topic so no one could interrupt, it was really quite hypnotic."

Sa'ar Chasm 03-18-2014 10:27 PM

Picard in Timescape. They're on a runabout coming back from a conference and Picard's describing a speaker who gave a talk on a completely differently topic than was mentioned in the program, and nobody could tell him because he didn't shut up.

Nate the Great 03-19-2014 12:41 PM

Quite. Your turn.

Sa'ar Chasm 03-19-2014 07:08 PM

"He knows nothing of our ways."

Nate the Great 03-19-2014 10:12 PM

That sounds like a Klingon statement, but I have no idea where or who.

Zeke 03-19-2014 11:06 PM

Worf to K'Elehyr re Alexander, "Reunion"?

Sa'ar Chasm 03-20-2014 01:46 PM

Correct. I don't know why, but I've managed to memorise that little exchange, possibly because that episode got a lot of rerun airplay when I was watching the show after school.

"Our ways? You mean Klingon ways."
"He is Klingon!"
"He is also *my son*, and I am half human!"

Zeke, you're up.

Zeke 03-20-2014 06:40 PM

"It <i>is</i> gold!"

Nate the Great 03-20-2014 06:58 PM

One of the poker players in "Times Arrow"?
