00:07You
00:44Chancellor's address, stardate 868943.8.
00:49We're three days into our first official space flight,
00:53circling the Val Nebula.
00:56I'm struck by its beauty.
00:59I'm struck by its very existence.
01:03The incalculable number of atoms
01:06that had to converge in this tiny patch
01:08of a seemingly infinite universe.
01:11This nebula was once a star.
01:13It could not have evolved into this present
01:16without every moment of its past.
01:18It makes me think of all of you, my cadets.
01:21The paths each of you have taken,
01:24all your life experiences,
01:26the decisions you've made
01:28that have led you to be right here, right now.
01:31As you go off to class today, ask yourselves,
01:34how will you keep evolving?
01:36How will we all, as our journey continues?
01:42With the first link, the chain is forged.
01:46The first speech censured.
01:50The first thought forbidden us all, irrevocably.
01:58Who said that?
02:00Come on, you little zygotes, who reads?
02:03Ah, cadet live.
02:05Judge Aaron Sauti.
02:06One of the finest minds of the 24th century,
02:10and in whose honor we hold the Academy's debate competition.
02:15Speech and debate is not for the chicken shit.
02:19Um, excuse me, are you allowed to talk like that?
02:22Like what?
02:23Cadet Holloway, know that I have existed
02:26longer than your entire lineage.
02:28I have earned the right to speak as I see fit.
02:30One day you too may earn that same privilege.
02:34But alas, that day is not today.
02:39Now, as I was saying before being pointlessly interrupted,
02:41Yo, are you okay?
02:42Despite any medicines, you may feel...
02:44I do not like public speaking.
02:47I know you're the only shy Klingon in history,
02:49but you got some game, right?
02:50Klingons do not do game.
02:53We do complex and violent mating rituals
02:57that end in bloodshed.
03:00Ended poetry.
03:02That was a lot more information than I was expecting.
03:04And you may be interested to know
03:05that debate is one of the oldest arts,
03:07not just on Earth, but throughout the...
03:09Debate.
03:10Something else can handle on the battlefield.
03:12You know, you...
03:13You don't...
03:13Framie, I tend to pop in now and then.
03:16On the USS Voyager,
03:18long before you were even a twinkle in your father's past,
03:22I won the right to be myself through argument.
03:26I debated myself into existence.
03:30The power of speech and debate
03:32brought Betazed back into the Federation.
03:35If you and I were to stand up
03:37and take our positions at these two podiums,
03:41I could prove you don't exist.
03:45What?
03:46Sorry?
03:46That's your opening argument?
03:48Warm-up drill.
03:49Everyone up.
03:51Come on.
03:51One straight line down the middle.
03:54Now, let's see who among you
03:55has done your preparation
03:57on Starfleet debate regulations,
03:59or who among you will humiliate themselves
04:02in full view of their peers.
04:04Resolved.
04:05Sentient existence should return to a pre-war time.
04:08Every species enjoyed the more harmonious,
04:11peaceful era.
04:12Amateurs motivate arguments with feelings, not facts.
04:16Any research on the Cygna-Ducana system
04:18and its pre-space flight culture
04:19proves that the pre-war era
04:20was continually in conflict.
04:22Mir, advance.
04:24Resolved.
04:25The War College should move its campus to Earth's moon.
04:28If one regards the War College
04:29as a possible defensive bridge...
04:31The War College is indeed a college,
04:32not a branch of the military.
04:34The strategic benefits of a divided defense
04:36are immeasurable.
04:37Therefore, it falls under Regulation 17,
04:39subsection 343, paragraph 234,
04:41which requires all lunar campuses
04:43to maintain Level 5 or higher
04:45on the Fuller-Story scale for lunar stability.
04:47Mir, advance.
04:53Mir, advance.
04:56Mir.
04:57Mir.
04:59Mir.
05:00Against all reason and expectation.
05:03Yep, yep, yep.
05:15Cadet Krog, your prompt, please.
05:20Cadet Krog?
05:24Cadet?
05:25Are you all right?
05:27Do you need to sit down?
05:30Cadet Krog?
05:39Cadet, are you okay?
05:40You okay?
05:40My pants are breaking.
05:45Dude, what the hell happened in there?
05:48How bad was it?
05:50Uh, on a scale of what to what?
05:52I have difficulties expressing my point of view at times.
05:57You have the advantage.
05:57You're a Klingon.
05:59Let me tell you something.
05:59Before you even open your mouth,
06:00people are intimidated by you.
06:02What if a hologuard catches us?
06:04Last time I checked,
06:04it's not a crime to reprogram a dot to bring us lunch.
06:07Did you truly memorize all of those laws and regulations?
06:11Or were you making them up?
06:13In prison, you have to learn stuff to survive.
06:16Arguing is just another form of combat for me.
06:18Klingons, Klingons love combat.
06:19That is not the issue.
06:22The issue is that arguing,
06:24standing up for what I believe makes sweat flood down my face.
06:28Here.
06:29Eat your feelings.
06:31I swear it doesn't even taste like replicator food.
06:34Yeah.
06:36See?
06:38What are you doing?
06:39No pepperoni.
06:40The pepperoni is the whole point.
06:41I will not eat anything that did not die in a fair fight.
06:44It doesn't even come from a real pig.
06:50Are you hoarding food under your bed again?
06:53I'm not taking questions at this time, unfortunately.
06:56I saved a surprise for you, though.
06:58I gave the replicators the recipe.
07:02But should we click?
07:04That's real Klingon food, right?
07:07And trail stew?
07:08That is warrior stew.
07:10Only those who have served their house in battle can taste it.
07:14My father and mother taught me better than that.
07:18You grew up with three parents?
07:20A triad house.
07:23I once shared a garbage freighter with the Klingon.
07:27Still waste.
07:28She told me the story.
07:29How Kalish united the houses and conquered Konosh from the tyrant Molor.
07:35How they ate entrails stew to taste their victory.
07:40And how Kalish's warriors laid their weapons at his feet to honor him.
07:43My parents used to sing us to sleep with that myth.
07:49It gave us comfort in the refugee camps.
07:52Konosh would have been cool to see.
08:04Chancellor Ake regards my presence.
08:08Kadadkrat.
08:09We wanted you to hear it from us before the news breaks publicly.
08:13A Klingon ship carrying about eight houses to a refugee camp on Taurus 7
08:20and suffered catastrophic mechanical failure.
08:24It's unconfirmed, but we've reasoned to believe your family was on board.
08:43Are they dead?
08:45We don't know yet.
08:47Logistics are complicated.
08:49There was a time before the burn when the Federation and the Klingons were allies.
08:54Today, they refuse...
08:56Everything.
08:59Even if it means their extinction.
09:03The horrific tragedy unfolding in real time as the Klingon refugee crisis worsens.
09:08Today, an unregistered heavy cargo carrier with members of the eight remaining Klingon houses on board
09:15suffered a catastrophic mechanical failure and crashed on its way to a refugee center.
09:20After the burn caused the lithium reactors on Kronos and other worlds to explode,
09:25billions perished.
09:27Now, one of the most powerful races sits on the brink of extinction.
09:32They're crap.
09:35Jaden.
09:38We'll do everything we can to get you answers.
09:42That might not be easy as the news spreads.
09:47You're the only Klingon cadet Starfleet has.
09:50So if you'd like to take some time off...
09:53No, Chancellor.
09:59Am I dismissed?
10:00I would not like to be late to class.
10:03If you want to speak with a counselor, the doctor is more than...
10:06I said goodbye to my family a long time ago.
10:13With your permission.
10:16Of course.
10:16given more.
10:20I'm escaped.
10:25I'm not.
10:33I'm T-R.
10:41I'm not.
10:43I'm not.
10:44I'm not.
13:20Ah, warrior stew.
13:22Yes.
13:23Jayden.
13:24You will have the stew too.
13:26One day, my son.
13:29Beware, Klingon's bearing gifts.
13:33Thar, rise and approach your father.
13:37I made this horde with for you.
13:39The way our ancestors have been making weapons for centuries.
13:43Please.
13:44Klingon in its marrow.
13:45Yes.
13:48I will make one for you as well, Jayden.
13:50Once you honor the hunt, and become a warrior like your brother.
13:58I do not want a weapon.
14:03What did you say, boy?
14:07I will tell you one last time.
14:11Herbs and healing have their place, but they will not serve you if you are dead.
14:18Dar, brother.
14:22My brother.
14:28Why couldn't they see me?
14:32As you saw me, you knew my heart even before I did.
14:45You led me to it.
14:51Brother, come.
14:53I found you something quite rare at the trading post.
14:59But you must promise not to tell mother and father a Starfleet transmitter.
15:05That is forbidden.
15:06Alien technology.
15:08I heard Starfleet is a place for explorers, scientists, healers.
15:14Fathers and I are going to the trading post again tomorrow.
15:17I can get you some more Starfleet tech.
15:20Your mind is hungry, Jayden.
15:23We should feed it.
15:29Leading diplomatic missions, providing medical aid.
15:33If you are looking for us, we are looking for you at Starfleet Academy.
15:38After 120 years, we are recruiting again.
15:42Your destiny, little brother.
15:43It is not here.
15:45It is out there in the stars.
15:49The rest of the Klingon Empire became uninhabitable.
15:51Now, one of the most powerful races sits on the...
15:55Pause.
15:57Jaden.
16:00I am so sorry.
16:08If there is, like, anything we can do to help, or to...
16:13But, uh...
16:15Maybe...
16:21Our Aaron Satie debate event is this week.
16:25Competitors will argue for and against a resolution.
16:29After affirmative and negative statements, there will be a round of cross-examinations.
16:34Then, final summations.
16:36A battle of words.
16:39Now, I'd like to hear ideas for our central topic.
16:44Anyone?
16:46The new government on Beta Zed?
16:48The geopolitical impact of the Emerald Chain?
16:53Yes, Cadet?
16:54Doctor, it seems irresponsible to focus elsewhere with what's just happened with the Klingons.
16:58Everyone knows they lost Kronos because they blew it up themselves.
17:01No one needs your embarrassing conspiracy theories.
17:03That Klingon incursion into Hectaren, that enslavement, total fiction.
17:07That's enough, Cadet Mere.
17:08Read a book, moron.
17:10I do not need you to defend me.
17:13Cadets, the Klingon diaspora is not an appropriate topic for this debate.
17:19Why not?
17:26It is the one thing everyone is already speaking about.
17:32Dude, don't do this to yourself, okay?
17:35It is either going to happen in here or out there.
17:39I would rather it happen in here.
17:41I cannot allow the reality of the current situation to influence this event.
17:47Avoiding reality does not make it disappear, Doctor.
18:00Very well.
18:03Any dissenters?
18:13We are resolved.
18:15Review the facts of the Klingon diaspora, then choose your positions.
18:22Cadets, I admonish you.
18:24Your preparation had better be faultless.
18:29There's been a tragedy.
18:31Don't compound it with ignorance.
18:35I have no news on Jaden Krog's family yet.
18:39I wish I did.
18:40I know that look.
18:41Whatever this is, I'm gonna hate it.
18:43I think the opposite.
18:45Take a look.
18:47Command has identified an uninhabited planet within Federation space.
18:51Fon Alpha.
18:51It's geothermal energy matches that of Kronos.
18:56A new realm, potentially?
18:57Did you bring this to the Klingon?
18:59Oh, yes.
19:00They made it clear that they would rather die than take Starfleet charity.
19:05There's one.
19:07Their oldest warlord.
19:09Obel Wachak.
19:10You knew him when he was a young diplomat.
19:13He's known to be open to outsiders as long as it benefits his people.
19:18I thought maybe you'd give it a go, given your history.
19:23My history happened decades before you were born, Charlie.
19:27How do you even know about it?
19:28Your personal files.
19:31I've been reading them for the last seven years.
19:33Longer than War and Peace and so much more...
19:35Dramatic?
19:36Insane.
19:37The plot twists.
19:39Do it for your cadet now.
19:42At the very least, Obel can help locate Jaden's family.
19:46If there is a Klingon who can see the benefit of Fallen Alpha, it's him.
19:54Yeah.
19:58No one can know about this meeting or he would risk dishonor from his own.
20:03And never come.
20:08Why is he doing this?
20:09The last thing Jaden needs is to be on stage battling against his friends.
20:14Hey.
20:16We were just strategizing.
20:18I'll be arguing the affirmative.
20:20That the Federation should offer the Klingon's asylum.
20:23If you want to partner up.
20:26I'm sure the doctor would approve it.
20:27Given everything.
20:30Who else is working as a team?
20:33Well, but...
20:35Special circumstances.
20:39Just an offer.
20:40You do not think I can do this myself?
20:43What?
20:44No.
20:45Jade, no, that's not what I'm saying.
20:46I'm saying...
20:46I do not need to partner with you.
20:48Or anyone else.
20:50Jaden.
20:51Mir is an ass.
20:53He's the best debater we got.
20:55Master.
20:55Master debater.
20:57Sir.
20:58I do not care who I debate against.
21:01And I am on the negative.
21:03Any plan for Klingon's survival should be left to the Klingons.
21:08Wait, wait, wait, wait. Negative?
21:09What, you don't think the Federation's protection would help your people?
21:11There is no protection.
21:13Not from laws.
21:15There never can be.
21:33Zahar.
21:35Zahar.
21:36Remember when Mother taught us about the Nightbird?
21:42That was before.
21:46You flew away.
21:52What happened?
21:53He tried to trade for Starfleet technology.
21:55Some kind of regenerator.
21:57The traitor stabbed him.
21:59Zahar.
21:59Your blood is black.
22:02The dagger was poisoned, Mother.
22:04You should see the traitor.
22:07We need to stop the bleeding.
22:10Is it still there?
22:12The dermaregenerator, is it still at the market?
22:15It can save him.
22:16The tools of the Federation are not for us!
22:23Dad!
22:26Listen to me, brother.
22:30No matter what happens.
22:34You are enough of everything.
22:38Warrior.
22:42Healer.
22:45Jaden.
22:47Trust yourself.
22:50Trust.
22:56Trust.
22:57Trust.
22:58Trust.
22:59The stars.
23:02The stars.
23:13Ah.
23:14Fuck.
23:44I smell vintage blood wine.
23:47One might think you're trying to get on my good side.
23:50I'm pretty sure I never left.
23:54You managed to get here under the radar.
23:56You had doubts?
23:58Nope.
24:08It is good to see you.
24:10Time has had a light touch.
24:11Even for a lanthanite.
24:13Says the Klingon who's seen a sentry.
24:18Catch up properly or straight to business?
24:22Business. Catching up properly.
24:25Can only complicate.
24:30That's phone alpha.
24:33Virtually identical to Kronos in temperature.
24:37Topography.
24:38Volcanic emission.
24:40Nala.
24:40Only one species I know.
24:43Could build a home there.
24:45Fun alpha is a charity.
24:47The houses would never accept.
24:51You know who we are.
24:53Who I am.
24:54Yes.
24:55I'm trying to save you.
24:57Arrogant.
24:59Always.
25:00And there it is.
25:04I came here knowing this wouldn't work.
25:06But there were a few ways for us to spend time together that do not frighten you Nala.
25:12I haven't changed.
25:14But I have.
25:15The warrior I knew would have done anything to ensure the future of his people.
25:20I would have dishonored my people to spare them.
25:23Now.
25:25Now.
25:26We have nothing left but our traditions.
25:29Is there.
25:31Room to expand tradition.
25:34No more of your word games.
25:36No more of your word games.
25:37We haven't been drinking long enough.
25:39No games.
25:42I know.
25:43The houses consider you their leader.
25:46So many of them have already taken refuge.
25:48In Faun Alpha's sector.
25:51In Federation space.
25:52Let us grant them.
25:54All of you.
25:54Asylum.
25:55On Faun Alpha.
25:56Faun Losh.
25:57Was not granted.
25:58You know this.
26:00Accepting the charity of the Federation is an impossibility.
26:04Our houses will only unite over conquest.
26:08Conquest.
26:08Conquest.
26:09Won't save you from extinction.
26:14And it'll only orphan my cadet.
26:17What?
26:18A Klingon?
26:21In the academy?
26:22Yes.
26:23And if this family is still alive.
26:26You're their only chance to stay that way.
26:31Honorable Assembly.
26:33I am here to refute.
26:37My opponent has argued that the Klingon.
26:42That the Klingon Empire.
26:45Could try losing the notes.
26:47Memorizing your arguments.
26:49I know.
26:50Sexual work.
26:52But it ends up being kind of liberating.
26:54I did not ask for pointers.
26:57But you need them.
26:58You do not determine what I need.
27:00A day ago you were pouring a sweat.
27:01In public.
27:03Is this because I offered to partner up?
27:04You were not offering partnership.
27:06You were offering to speak for me.
27:08No. Look.
27:10Neither of us are like anyone else here.
27:11We both grew up with nothing.
27:13Came here with nothing.
27:15Neither of us has anywhere else to go.
27:17But our sacrifices are not the same.
27:20Yeah. I know. I know.
27:21But we have a kind of orphan fraternity thing going on, don't we?
27:24We do not.
27:26We are not brothers.
27:33Is that why it's so important for you to challenge me?
27:36Hmm?
27:38Are you trying to teach me a lesson?
27:39This is not about you.
27:41But if you happen to learn that lesson in defeat, it will be an added benefit.
27:45I would love to make this nightmare about my people, but I don't have any people.
27:50Okay? So you need to-
27:51Correct.
27:52You do not have people.
27:55You regurgitate facts about everything and everyone.
27:58The Klingons, the Orions, the Federation.
28:01But you have no understanding of what any of that means.
28:22You let's judge-
28:24You let's judge-
28:24Judge Judge!
28:30Oh! That was a glorious night!
28:34The cops came.
28:38And then I woke up and you weren't there anymore.
28:44You made it clear this wasn't in the cart for you.
28:49You made it clear you'd never leave your ship.
29:01Tell your cadet I'll look into his house.
29:04See if they survived.
29:07Is that all?
29:10A century later, then you're still surprised when you don't get what you want.
29:25You always insisted in making everything a fight.
29:29I am Klingon.
29:30No.
29:31The fight is where I live.
29:45We're looking for you.
29:47Time to fly your own path.
29:57I made this Horwick for you.
30:05You will complete the hunt and make your first kill.
30:10You will take your place in the house and come back a true warrior like him.
30:16Have you considered my request, father?
30:19I could learn valuable skills at Starfleet Academy.
30:23Skills I could have used to heal him.
30:26Federation technology would not have saved your brother.
30:32This is an insult to our family.
30:35This has no place in our house.
30:38You are Klingon.
30:40This trinket?
30:44Starfleet has not bled for you.
30:46Has not put its dreams, its future into you.
30:52To Vekla Tok.
30:54A bird of prey.
30:56It is a sign.
30:57Now is your time, son.
30:59Now!
31:02Strike now!
31:03Prove you are a warrior!
31:05Strike! Strike!
31:07I am brother.
31:17I am.
31:20Honoring him.
31:22I am.
31:23Honoring him.
31:39Father, stop!
31:53These weapons are not for you.
31:56These weapons are not for you.
32:04No, no, no, no.
32:09No, no, no, no!
32:19Go away.
32:27Look, I am just here to ask a favour.
32:29Whatever you have said to Caleb has got him stomping around our room now.
32:32He is like super pissy with me.
32:34So I am going to ask you.
32:36Hit me.
32:38What?
32:38Come on, you...
32:40I do not want to punch you.
32:44We all want to punch Caleb in the face.
32:45Even Caleb wants to punch himself in the face.
32:47It's a...
32:48It's a core tenant of his personality.
32:51Jayden.
32:52What are you so scared of?
32:54Huh?
32:55Just show me what you got.
32:56Come on.
32:57Hit me.
32:57Show me. Come on.
32:59I am not hitting you.
33:02It would be like squashing an insect.
33:09That felt good.
33:11Didn't it?
33:13You know what they teach young fighters?
33:15On Kaunia.
33:16When fear takes hold.
33:18Hmm?
33:20Where near?
33:23Battle breathing.
33:26Well, on your feet.
33:33Trust me.
33:38No?
33:38I don't know.
34:08I don't know.
34:34It's your voice.
34:37It's yours.
34:38Use it.
34:44Honorable assembly.
34:47Yes.
34:48My opponent has argued that the Klingon...
34:54Yes.
34:56Go on.
34:57Go on.
34:57Go on.
34:59That the Klingon Empire...
35:02Come on.
35:03Come on.
35:04Come on.
35:08Go on.
35:35Gather round and take your seats, little Zygotes.
35:37It's time to welcome your judge for today's debate, the Doctor.
35:48Welcome all to Starfleet Academy's first Aaron Satie debate competition in over a century.
36:05Competitors will challenge each other on a pre-chosen topic about the Klingon Diaspora.
36:13Please be aware that facts and evidence presented in affirmative and rebuttal speeches must be accurate.
36:20You look very bad.
36:22Thanks, Laura.
36:26Are you hungover?
36:28Nope.
36:31I take it things went badly with Obel Wojcik.
36:35Yep.
36:37Now, without further ado, may the most impressive performance become part of Starfleet history.
36:48Cadet Lied for the affirmative.
36:50Cadet Ramey for the negative.
36:53The Federation has a moral obligation to provide security for Klingon houses.
36:57The Federation has a moral obligation to the rest of the galaxy to rebuild itself with limited post-burn resources,
37:04unless you're suggesting severe galactic rationale.
37:07An existential crisis outweighs a little belt tightening.
37:11Cadet Ramey.
37:13What the God!
37:16I affirm that the Federation should moderate armistice negotiations between the Klingons and their former subject.
37:22I countered that the Organian peace treaty between the Klingons and the Federation, it didn't last.
37:28Inaccurate.
37:29It was superseded by the Ketomer.
37:31I countered that the Klingons and the Federation, it didn't last.
37:33Cadet Sirius Acclamation Mill.
37:36Sam.
37:37Sam.
37:39Sam.
37:39Sam.
37:39Sam.
37:40Sam.
37:40Sam.
37:41Sam.
37:49Sam.
37:50Sam.
37:51Sam.
37:53Sam.
37:55Sam.
37:56Sam.
38:09Sam.
38:16Sam.
38:18Federation law, section 2386, a core responsibility of its personnel is to provide aid to any
38:36sentient being in need of assistance, unless it violates the Prime Directive, which in
38:41this case, it does not.
39:06Book 12, Code 23.
39:13Code 2398, subsection 89, if engaged in diplomatic relations with species that are not allies,
39:24Starfleet officers need not contradict alien morality.
39:28There's legal precedent that amends Code 2398.
39:32Star date 2314, the USS Origin saves Lin species from extinction via relocation.
39:38Non-consensual relocation, as 2398 does not qualify.
39:43It does, when a known race is in mortal danger.
39:46Star date 2289, Koth versus Pharah.
39:54Star date 2930.8, Vulcan versus Koth concedes that mortal danger is a matter of subjective perception.
40:03How many Klingons are left in the Quadrants, Jaden?
40:06Enough to know that each Klingon matters.
40:08Cadets, refrain from personal comments.
40:11First warning.
40:12Cadet Krog, your rebuttal.
40:16My criterion is the Klingons in and of themselves.
40:23In the context of this debate, the Federation and their laws are irrelevant.
40:27To argue otherwise is to deny Klingons their right to define themselves.
40:33Is that not an existential right?
40:36Without self-definition, are Klingons Klingons?
40:40And does the Federation require other great peoples to cease to be in order to redefine itself after the burn?
40:47It is not the Federation's advantage or place to tell the Klingons who they are.
40:55Never. Or yours. Ever.
41:00Cadet Krog, second warning.
41:02Your argument implies that all Klingons must feel the same.
41:05Demands Klingons exist as Klingons.
41:09Klingons need to exist, period.
41:10And we do as ourselves.
41:13I know a Klingon who's rejected the isolationism you say defines all Klingons,
41:17and now enjoys Federation-provided food, safety, and resources.
41:21As a Klingon.
41:22Klingon.
41:23Cadets.
41:23Return to your podiums.
41:25Refused to belong to anything.
41:27Yet you will define it for those who are willing to die for it.
41:30Isn't that why you left your family?
41:31Because they were willing to...
41:32You have no idea what family means.
41:35And you stabbed your family in the back!
41:45Both of you.
41:47Out.
41:48You are done.
41:49I guess you did.
41:49OK.
41:55Come here.
42:05You'll be here.
42:07Fil cowardけて your running away.
42:08Be a hoje.
42:11Run.
42:16Pentang.
42:17That the fire is you!
42:19for my behavior at the debate.
42:21I do not know-
42:22Stop.
42:23At ease, cadet.
42:41I come from a Jem'Hadar Klingon family.
42:44Freed Jem'Hadar lineage on my father's side,
42:47Klingon on my mother's.
42:50My Klingon grandparents renounced their house
42:55to ride in conquest by the side of the Jem'Hadar.
42:59So I've seen my fair share of brotherly fights.
43:02They usually end in broken bones.
43:04This one was quite tame if you ask me.
43:06Caleb is not my brother.
43:13I've never had the privilege of being a mentor
43:17to a fellow Klingon.
43:19I do not want to...
43:22F it up, as Commander Reno says.
43:25But I regret not trusting my own instincts and speaking to you.
43:29Not as your Starfleet instructor, but as your Klingon elder.
43:34I would have helped you see the Klingon you are, as all elders should.
43:39But I do not know what Klingon I am, or what Starfleet officer.
43:46I dishonored both worlds.
43:50The last day with my house, my father and I went hunting together.
43:56It was my family's right of passage.
44:00You become a warrior after your first kill.
44:04I...
44:05I could not do it.
44:07I caused my father such anger.
44:11He missed the kill shot.
44:16And abandoned the hunt.
44:19He left me.
44:22They all left.
44:24My father!
44:29Come back!
44:32I'm back!
44:38There are only a few things I know to be true.
44:42One of them is...
44:44Klingons do not miss out of anger.
44:48I do not understand.
44:50A hunt is a battle.
44:53Rage makes our kills more satisfying.
44:59Unless...
45:00We find an opponent who humbles us.
45:05I believe your father honored the hunt the only way he knew how.
45:10By recognizing your victory.
45:14And setting you free.
45:17So that you could fly.
45:23Your father missed his shot.
45:26To let you go.
45:31He saw you for who you are.
45:38A Klingon warrior.
45:42Whose passion for death...
45:47Is surpassed only by his passion for life.
45:53Now...
45:54You must see yourself.
45:56As he did.
45:58And as your brother did.
46:00A warrior not with weapons.
46:02But words.
46:09How does any of this matter?
46:11If there is no hope for any of us?
46:15There is a planet.
46:17A new Kolosh.
46:19The Federation wants to gift it to our people.
46:23But I do not have to tell you how that offer...
46:26...landed.
46:34Get me back on that debate stage.
46:53I am a Klingon warrior.
46:59I learned that here.
47:02That is not a simple thing to say.
47:07My opponent has offered some valid points as to why the Federation should compel the Klingons to accept asylum.
47:17It is the Federation after all.
47:20But the Federation stops being the Federation if it insists.
47:27Klingons stop being Klingons.
47:30These are not mutually exclusive.
47:33Both exist in me.
47:35I exist as both on my own terms.
47:39Now it is time when we meet Klingons on theirs.
47:47Our culture was born in myth.
47:50My father made us memorize the story of Kaelish.
47:58Who gave us our laws of honor and our home of Klingons.
48:04Warriors everywhere laid their weapons at his feet.
48:09My brother, he understood the full expanse of the myth of Kaelish.
48:21He always did.
48:27I did not.
48:36I could not.
48:39I could not.
48:49Until now.
48:51Battle exists in as many forms as there are warriors.
48:56As long as it is fought in service of our people.
49:01Battle is the language we use to honor each other.
49:06It is the way we first became one.
49:10The Federation would do better to humble themselves and learn to hear our language as it is spoken.
49:21Therefore, I suggest a Klingon solution to a Klingon problem.
49:48Captain Krog has arrived, Captain Hake.
49:59Welcome to the bridge, Cadet Krog.
50:03Captain, what if I'm wrong?
50:07And I have convinced everyone to take advice of a cadet with no battle experience.
50:12The Federation thinks it's worth the risk.
50:15No matter how this ends, you brought us here.
50:19That means everything.
50:21Come with me.
50:24Lieutenant Dandred, get us out of warp.
50:27Aye, Captain.
50:28Come, stand by to hail General Wojok.
50:31It's time to meet an old foe.
50:34May the Klingon Gods help us.
50:43Why have you called me here, Nala?
50:46General Wojok, Klingon ships have taken refuge in this sector.
50:50They have trespassed Federation space and have threatened the security of our planet, Vaughn Alpha.
50:57The Federation has no choice but to declare any Klingon ship an enemy vessel.
51:05I see.
51:09Do you dare to declare war on all Klingon houses?
51:13Fight with me, Obel.
51:18Our Starfleet vessels are arriving now.
51:22USS Captain Washington.
51:23USS Crimson.
51:24USS Horizon in position.
51:26USS Lexington.
51:27USS Riker.
51:28We are in position and ready for your command, Captain Not-K.
51:32The Klingon fleet is warping in now.
51:49Let's go to red alert.
51:51Lieutenant Yah, tell our folks to put on a good show, but make sure they miss wide.
51:55Aye.
51:56Captain, incoming fire from the Klingons.
51:58Papla!
52:13Status report.
52:14Shield holding at 95%, Captain. No structural damage.
52:35All Starfleet vessels hold fire. Repeat, hold fire. It's time to stand down.
52:46We seize this planet as spoils of war.
53:11On behalf of the Federation, we offer you complete surrender.
53:16Pawn Alpha is now Klingon.
53:19Oh, ships have showed ours' mercy. For that, there are no casualties.
53:25On both sides, it seems.
53:29Good fight.
53:31My pleasure.
53:35Come here, boy.
53:41I have a special gift for you.
53:44Permission to beam it aboard.
53:54I honor you, Jay Dan Krak, with a weapon of a true Klingon warrior.
54:04One more thing. We located your parents.
54:07One more thing.
54:15They survived?
54:17Yes.
54:18They are safe now.
54:21And the Klingon houses have a new home.
54:24Thanks to you.
54:46Maybe but I can even tape down.
54:55We need to, you know...
55:07How did you even know?
55:08I had some help from a Kionian who stopped being a dick for a day.
55:16It was a gift from my brother, Dar.
55:25I am sorry. You two are alike.
55:31I did not think both of you could live in my heart.
55:38I believed I had to let him go.
55:42I've never been good at letting go.
55:46You asked me why I hoard earth food.
55:50My mom promised me we'd try together someday.
55:57She's...I don't know.
56:00She's with me.
56:03All the time.
56:06The memories of her just hit me.
56:11And I have to drown them out somehow.
56:13So I start shit.
56:17And I can be an asshole.
56:20Sometimes.
56:25I'm sorry too.
56:30Maybe the trick is not to let go of the past.
56:36But to let the present in.
56:48After 120 years, we are recruiting again.
56:53At Starfleet Academy, it's time to fly your own path.
56:59Leading diplomatic missions.
57:01Providing medical aid.
57:04If you're looking for us, we're looking for you.
57:08At Starfleet Academy.
57:35We're looking for you in a different fui.
