Star Trek: Deep Space Nine 2x19 Blood Oath

Baltar! :eek:

And of course, my favorite Klingon Kang

How do you watch with your dying breath? Breath can’t see!

He really let himself go.

Does the symbiont share a bloodstream with the host? The blood oath would affect it as well, in that case.

And of course, Kor as Baltar (classic flavor)

The symbiont would need the hosts blood as a way to get “food” so yeah.

I like that of all the people Dax could speak with about this she chooses Kira. I feel like we haven’t seen as much of her (Kira) lately

I’ll say it again. So cool that they got the original three actors for the three Klingons.

When I was growing up, Kor, Koloth and Kang were kinda the only model we had for what Klingon’s were.

“Your hand would never slip, unless you’ve become old and feeble”
hehe

[li]This episode “reunites” three Klingons from The Original Series: Kor (TOS: “Errand of Mercy”), Koloth (TOS: “The Trouble with Tribbles”), and Kang (TOS: “Day of the Dove”).
[/li][li]Before the episode entered production, Junie Lowry-Johnson and Ron Surma checked to see if Michael Ansara, John Colicos, and William Campbell were still acting. They found the first two easily, but had difficulty finding Campbell. He was actually doing Star Trek cruise conventions at the time. (Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Companion)
[/li][li]On the return of the TOS actors, Michael Okuda commented "At first, you almost didn’t recognize them because they were in heavy Klingon makeup. But as soon as Michael Ansara opened his mouth, there was a powerful sense of déjà vu. Having the three original Klingons on the show was magical for everyone. (Where No One Has Gone Before)
[/li][li]This episode marks the deaths of Koloth (William Campbell) and Kang (Michael Ansara), although, Kang later appeared in VOY: “Flashback”. Incidentally, Kor (John Colicos) is the only one of the three Klingons to survive the events of this episode. However, Colicos was the first of the three actors to pass away, on March 6, 2000. William Campbell passed away April 28, 2011.
[/li][li]William Campbell said this episode was his most difficult acting job, and one he would have liked to do again. (Deep Space Nine Chronicles)
[/li][li]Terry Farrell is a big fan of this episode because she feels that it reveals a great deal of depth to Dax. Farrell feels that each of the three Klingons require a different approach from her, and that the character is capable of switching gears like that is something she is quite proud of; “With Kor, I had to convince him that he was a hero, and that in my eyes he would always be a hero, so that was philosophical. With Koloth, I had to prove that I was strong enough to go to battle with him, so that was physical. And with Kang, I had to prove to him that my desire and need to be a part of this blood oath was strong enough that I could not imagine staying behind, that I was mentally strong and capable enough. So I had to exhibit the honor, the physical strength, and the mental perseverance to go with them.” (Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Companion)

Dax does well manipulating the three Klingons

This is a great Dax episode for sure

Kang: You use big Science Words, Dax

This is one of those episodes that I get distracted watching and less comment…

luckily Jadzia Dax is a science officer.
SCIENCE!

A location scene. Awesome.

Klingon outfit words for Dax

“with all due respect…”

Just say it, Jadzia. They’re old and slow, and you’re not :stuck_out_tongue:

I was just thinking the same. She looks like she’s ready to kick ass and take names. Also, her hair isn’t as poofy, which I say is a plus.

Great guard there. Moron.

Silly blind eye helmets. The sure sign of an evil henchperson
