Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:10,143 --> 00:00:11,872
Good morning, Commander.
2
00:00:11,911 --> 00:00:12,969
Data.
3
00:00:13,079 --> 00:00:14,376
Interesting night?
4
00:00:14,414 --> 00:00:16,848
I found it
extremely interesting.
5
00:00:16,883 --> 00:00:18,578
The lateral sensor arrays
6
00:00:18,618 --> 00:00:20,779
ran three separate
spectral analyses
7
00:00:20,820 --> 00:00:22,117
on the Alawanir Nebula
8
00:00:22,155 --> 00:00:23,952
on three distinct frequencies.
9
00:00:23,990 --> 00:00:25,321
I'm sorry I missed it.
10
00:00:25,358 --> 00:00:27,656
I will have the report
sent to you, sir.
11
00:00:27,694 --> 00:00:30,094
We are still on course
for the Gariman Sector.
12
00:00:30,130 --> 00:00:33,497
Our speed is warp six.
ETA: 1300 hours.
13
00:00:33,533 --> 00:00:35,626
Sick Bay reported
one minor injury
14
00:00:35,668 --> 00:00:38,762
in the exobiology department
at 0420 hours.
15
00:00:38,805 --> 00:00:40,102
Very well.
16
00:00:40,140 --> 00:00:42,700
Isn't Lieutenant Worf scheduled
to replace Ensign Torigan?
17
00:00:42,742 --> 00:00:44,471
Yes, sir.
I was not informed
18
00:00:44,511 --> 00:00:46,502
of any change
in the duty roster.
19
00:00:46,546 --> 00:00:48,275
He's never late.
20
00:00:48,314 --> 00:00:50,009
Riker to Lieutenant Worf.
21
00:00:53,286 --> 00:00:55,618
Computer,
locate Lieutenant Worf.
22
00:00:55,655 --> 00:00:58,419
Lieutenant Worf
is in his quarters.
23
00:00:58,458 --> 00:00:59,755
Something's wrong.
24
00:00:59,793 --> 00:01:01,784
Mr. Data, you have the Bridge.
25
00:01:01,828 --> 00:01:05,423
Security team, meet me on
deck seven, section 25-baker.
26
00:01:05,465 --> 00:01:07,524
Aye, sir.
27
00:01:17,377 --> 00:01:20,972
Computer, override security lock
on this door.
28
00:01:21,014 --> 00:01:23,346
Authorization:
Riker-alpha-six-zero.
29
00:01:31,391 --> 00:01:36,328
Torva... Luk... Do...
30
00:01:36,362 --> 00:01:38,990
Shell.
31
00:01:39,065 --> 00:01:40,965
Torva...
32
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:42,331
Worf...
33
00:01:42,368 --> 00:01:44,233
what the hell are you doing?
34
00:02:17,937 --> 00:02:22,340
Space, the final frontier.
35
00:02:22,375 --> 00:02:26,209
These are the voyages
of the Starship Enterprise.
36
00:02:26,246 --> 00:02:28,214
Its continuing mission...
37
00:02:28,248 --> 00:02:32,184
to explore strange new worlds
38
00:02:32,218 --> 00:02:36,655
to seek out new life
and new civilizations
39
00:02:36,689 --> 00:02:41,149
to boldly go
where no one has gone before.
40
00:03:41,087 --> 00:03:42,577
Enter.
41
00:03:54,867 --> 00:03:56,562
Captain...
42
00:03:59,839 --> 00:04:01,397
On your feet, Lieutenant.
43
00:04:04,844 --> 00:04:06,368
Sir.
44
00:04:06,412 --> 00:04:09,313
Mr. Worf, your personal affairs
are strictly your own concern
45
00:04:09,349 --> 00:04:11,874
until they interfere
with the operation of this ship.
46
00:04:11,918 --> 00:04:13,647
You have now crossed that line.
47
00:04:13,686 --> 00:04:17,645
As your Captain, I want to know
exactly what is going on.
48
00:04:17,690 --> 00:04:19,521
It is difficult to explain.
49
00:04:19,559 --> 00:04:21,288
Try.
50
00:04:21,327 --> 00:04:24,524
Ever since I returned
from the Carraya System
51
00:04:24,564 --> 00:04:27,362
I have felt... empty.
52
00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:30,961
Does this have something to do
with the Klingons you rescued
53
00:04:31,037 --> 00:04:32,971
from Carraya IV?
54
00:04:33,006 --> 00:04:34,974
They were young.
55
00:04:35,041 --> 00:04:37,566
They knew nothing
of their heritage
56
00:04:37,610 --> 00:04:40,511
so while I was there,
I tried to teach them...
57
00:04:40,546 --> 00:04:42,980
teach them about their people
58
00:04:43,049 --> 00:04:44,516
their culture.
59
00:04:44,550 --> 00:04:47,519
I told them our ancient stories
60
00:04:47,553 --> 00:04:50,147
instructed them in our customs
61
00:04:50,189 --> 00:04:51,554
explained our beliefs.
62
00:04:51,591 --> 00:04:53,991
And then I told them
about Kahless...
63
00:04:54,093 --> 00:04:56,755
how he had united our people
long ago
64
00:04:56,796 --> 00:04:58,991
how he gave us
strength and honor
65
00:04:59,098 --> 00:05:01,726
and how he promised
to return one day
66
00:05:01,768 --> 00:05:03,099
and lead us again.
67
00:05:10,243 --> 00:05:12,404
Is that what you're doing here?
68
00:05:12,445 --> 00:05:14,709
Trying to recapture
those feelings?
69
00:05:14,747 --> 00:05:16,044
Yes.
70
00:05:16,082 --> 00:05:18,846
I was trying to summon
a vision of Kahless.
71
00:05:18,885 --> 00:05:20,785
It's a pity that you
didn't try the holodeck
72
00:05:20,820 --> 00:05:22,617
instead of setting fire
to your quarters.
73
00:05:22,655 --> 00:05:25,818
Using the holodeck
would not have been appropriate.
74
00:05:25,858 --> 00:05:29,157
Everything had to be real
if Kahless were to appear.
75
00:05:30,830 --> 00:05:33,128
But all this...
76
00:05:33,166 --> 00:05:35,532
is for nothing.
77
00:05:35,568 --> 00:05:37,832
He did not come to me.
78
00:05:40,873 --> 00:05:43,967
I gave Toq and the others
a belief in Sto-Vo-Kor...
79
00:05:44,077 --> 00:05:46,477
the life which lies
beyond this life
80
00:05:46,512 --> 00:05:48,844
where Kahless awaits us.
81
00:05:48,881 --> 00:05:51,441
When I saw the power
of their beliefs
82
00:05:51,484 --> 00:05:54,681
I began to question
the strength of my own
83
00:05:54,721 --> 00:05:59,658
and I found it... wanting.
84
00:05:59,692 --> 00:06:03,526
Have you lost your faith
in Sto-Vo-Kor?
85
00:06:03,563 --> 00:06:04,860
To lose something
86
00:06:04,897 --> 00:06:06,797
one must first possess it.
87
00:06:06,833 --> 00:06:10,291
I am not sure
I ever had a true belief.
88
00:06:16,476 --> 00:06:19,070
But I should not have allowed it
to interfere with my duties.
89
00:06:19,112 --> 00:06:20,101
My behavior has been...
90
00:06:20,146 --> 00:06:21,704
Inexcusable.
91
00:06:23,282 --> 00:06:25,216
And understandable.
92
00:06:25,251 --> 00:06:27,378
It may be
that what you are looking for
93
00:06:27,420 --> 00:06:29,581
cannot be found
here on the Enterprise.
94
00:06:31,190 --> 00:06:33,249
Perhaps you need
to immerse yourself
95
00:06:33,292 --> 00:06:35,692
in Klingon beliefs
96
00:06:35,728 --> 00:06:37,423
in order to discover
97
00:06:37,463 --> 00:06:39,931
if they can hold
any truths for you.
98
00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:43,525
Is there...
something you can do?
99
00:06:43,569 --> 00:06:45,628
Is there somewhere you could go
100
00:06:45,671 --> 00:06:48,765
to explore your faith
more fully?
101
00:06:50,710 --> 00:06:52,541
Boreth.
102
00:06:52,578 --> 00:06:55,672
The followers of Kahless
await his return there.
103
00:06:55,715 --> 00:06:58,445
To Klingons, there is
no more sacred place.
104
00:06:58,484 --> 00:07:03,421
Mmm. And Boreth is only 12 days
from here by shuttle.
105
00:07:05,391 --> 00:07:08,383
As of this moment, Mr. Worf,
you are on leave.
106
00:07:08,428 --> 00:07:10,453
Thank you, sir.
107
00:07:10,496 --> 00:07:13,863
But when you set foot
on this ship again
108
00:07:13,900 --> 00:07:16,869
I expect you
to perform your duties
109
00:07:16,903 --> 00:07:18,530
like a Starfleet officer.
110
00:07:18,571 --> 00:07:19,731
Yes, sir.
111
00:07:25,511 --> 00:07:28,207
And, Mr. Worf...
112
00:07:28,247 --> 00:07:31,375
I hope you find
what you're looking for.
113
00:07:31,417 --> 00:07:32,975
Thank you, sir.
114
00:07:46,666 --> 00:07:52,605
Torva... Luk... Do... Shell.
115
00:07:52,638 --> 00:07:55,971
Torva... Luk...
116
00:07:56,008 --> 00:07:58,841
Do... Shell.
117
00:07:58,878 --> 00:08:05,113
Torva... Luk... Do... Shell.
118
00:08:05,151 --> 00:08:11,112
Torva... Luk...Do... Shell.
119
00:08:11,157 --> 00:08:14,388
Torva... Luk... Do...
120
00:08:14,427 --> 00:08:16,292
Kahless!
121
00:08:16,329 --> 00:08:17,489
I see Kahless!
122
00:08:17,530 --> 00:08:21,466
He is standing before me
with a sword.
123
00:08:21,501 --> 00:08:23,093
He wants something.
124
00:08:23,135 --> 00:08:25,933
Me.
125
00:08:26,005 --> 00:08:28,098
He wants me.
126
00:08:28,140 --> 00:08:31,541
He wants me to go with him!
127
00:08:32,778 --> 00:08:36,111
It is a powerful vision
you have had, Divok.
128
00:08:36,148 --> 00:08:39,743
Kahless wants you to join him
in Sto-Vo-Kor.
129
00:08:39,785 --> 00:08:42,583
You're only 19,
and yet your place
130
00:08:42,622 --> 00:08:45,614
among the honored dead
is already secure.
131
00:08:45,658 --> 00:08:47,751
Take him back to his chamber.
132
00:08:47,793 --> 00:08:49,192
Let him sleep.
133
00:09:02,875 --> 00:09:05,742
You're leaving us?
134
00:09:05,778 --> 00:09:08,440
It has been ten days, Koroth.
135
00:09:08,481 --> 00:09:10,449
I have had no visions.
136
00:09:10,483 --> 00:09:12,678
I have received no insight.
137
00:09:12,718 --> 00:09:15,050
There is nothing here for me.
138
00:09:17,223 --> 00:09:20,454
What is the story
of the promise, Worf?
139
00:09:23,229 --> 00:09:25,561
When Kahless
had united our people
140
00:09:25,598 --> 00:09:27,725
and gave them the laws of honor
141
00:09:27,767 --> 00:09:29,860
he saw that his work was done
142
00:09:29,902 --> 00:09:32,427
so, one night, he gathered
his belongings
143
00:09:32,471 --> 00:09:35,031
and departed
for the edge of the city
144
00:09:35,074 --> 00:09:36,200
to say good-bye.
145
00:09:36,242 --> 00:09:37,573
The people wept.
146
00:09:37,610 --> 00:09:39,737
They did not want him to go.
147
00:09:41,581 --> 00:09:44,573
Then Kahless said,
"You are Klingons.
148
00:09:44,617 --> 00:09:47,450
"You need no one but yourselves.
149
00:09:47,486 --> 00:09:50,455
"I will go now to Sto-Vo-Kor
150
00:09:50,489 --> 00:09:53,856
but I promise one day
I will return."
151
00:09:53,893 --> 00:09:57,624
Then Kahless pointed
to a star in the sky
152
00:09:57,663 --> 00:10:03,966
and said, "Look for me there
on that point of light."
153
00:10:04,070 --> 00:10:06,971
So, here we are...
154
00:10:07,006 --> 00:10:11,807
on a world circling
that distant point of light.
155
00:10:13,479 --> 00:10:17,074
It has been 15 centuries
since he made that promise
156
00:10:17,116 --> 00:10:19,243
and still we wait.
157
00:10:19,285 --> 00:10:23,415
What are ten days
in the life of one Klingon
158
00:10:23,456 --> 00:10:25,253
compared to that?
159
00:10:25,291 --> 00:10:30,251
Is the son of Mogh
really so easily discouraged?
160
00:10:30,296 --> 00:10:32,992
You came to us seeking answers
161
00:10:33,099 --> 00:10:37,433
but this is a place
of questions.
162
00:10:37,470 --> 00:10:40,769
Open your heart to Kahless.
163
00:10:40,806 --> 00:10:43,274
Ask him your questions
164
00:10:43,309 --> 00:10:45,277
let him speak to you
165
00:10:45,311 --> 00:10:48,803
with your mind unclouded
by doubt or hesitation.
166
00:10:48,848 --> 00:10:52,614
Only then can you find
what you are looking for.
167
00:10:52,652 --> 00:10:54,950
If you cannot do that
168
00:10:54,987 --> 00:11:00,425
then perhaps you should
return to your starship.
169
00:11:13,673 --> 00:11:18,838
... Luk... Do... Shell.
170
00:11:18,878 --> 00:11:25,408
Torva... Luk... Do... Shell.
171
00:11:25,451 --> 00:11:28,181
Torva... Luk...
172
00:11:35,394 --> 00:11:37,294
I see Kahless.
173
00:12:02,888 --> 00:12:04,879
You are real.
174
00:12:09,428 --> 00:12:12,556
I am Kahless
175
00:12:12,598 --> 00:12:15,829
and I have returned.
176
00:12:37,053 --> 00:12:38,543
What are you doing?
177
00:12:41,924 --> 00:12:43,915
Who are you?
178
00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:45,655
It is Kahless.
179
00:12:50,533 --> 00:12:53,001
I have returned.
180
00:12:53,069 --> 00:12:56,197
You doubt me.
181
00:12:56,239 --> 00:13:01,836
Who here knows the story
of how this sword was forged?
182
00:13:01,878 --> 00:13:03,175
No one knows.
183
00:13:03,212 --> 00:13:05,840
It is not written
in the sacred texts.
184
00:13:08,918 --> 00:13:12,046
I went into the mountains
185
00:13:12,088 --> 00:13:15,524
all the way to the volcano
at Kri'stak.
186
00:13:15,558 --> 00:13:18,527
There I cut off
a lock of my hair
187
00:13:18,561 --> 00:13:22,497
and thrust it
into the river of molten rock
188
00:13:22,531 --> 00:13:25,056
that poured from the summit.
189
00:13:25,101 --> 00:13:27,262
The hair began to burn.
190
00:13:27,303 --> 00:13:31,205
Then I plunged it
into the lake of Lusor
191
00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:35,904
and twisted it into this sword.
192
00:13:35,945 --> 00:13:40,075
And after I used it
to kill Molor
193
00:13:40,116 --> 00:13:42,584
I gave it a name...
194
00:13:42,618 --> 00:13:45,086
bat'leth...
195
00:13:45,121 --> 00:13:47,749
the sword of honor.
196
00:13:47,790 --> 00:13:50,088
You know.
197
00:13:50,126 --> 00:13:52,094
The story of the sword
198
00:13:52,128 --> 00:13:54,528
is known only
to the high clerics.
199
00:13:54,563 --> 00:13:56,394
It was never written down
200
00:13:56,432 --> 00:14:00,698
so that if he returned,
we could be sure it was Kahless.
201
00:14:00,736 --> 00:14:02,203
I have returned
202
00:14:02,238 --> 00:14:05,833
because there is
a great need in my people.
203
00:14:05,875 --> 00:14:10,209
They fight amongst themselves
in petty wars
204
00:14:10,246 --> 00:14:13,113
that corrupt the glory
of the Klingon spirit.
205
00:14:13,149 --> 00:14:16,209
They have lost their way...
206
00:14:16,252 --> 00:14:18,618
but it is not too late.
207
00:14:18,654 --> 00:14:21,282
I have returned
208
00:14:21,324 --> 00:14:25,260
and I will lead my people again.
209
00:14:26,362 --> 00:14:31,459
Vorch-doh-baghk, Kahless.
210
00:14:31,500 --> 00:14:36,904
Vorch-doh-baghk,Kahless.
211
00:14:36,939 --> 00:14:41,308
Vorch-doh-baghk, Kahless.
212
00:14:48,351 --> 00:14:51,843
What is it you are doing?
213
00:14:53,689 --> 00:14:55,680
I was getting my tricorder.
214
00:14:55,725 --> 00:14:57,750
Tricorder?
215
00:14:57,793 --> 00:14:59,488
Is it a weapon?
216
00:14:59,528 --> 00:15:01,996
No. No. It is a tool.
217
00:15:02,031 --> 00:15:04,795
I intended to use it
to see if...
218
00:15:04,834 --> 00:15:07,166
To see if I was real.
219
00:15:09,338 --> 00:15:10,930
Proceed.
220
00:15:11,007 --> 00:15:13,237
Use your tricorder.
221
00:15:25,187 --> 00:15:26,814
Well?
222
00:15:28,657 --> 00:15:30,249
You are Klingon.
223
00:15:30,292 --> 00:15:33,090
What else could I be?
224
00:15:33,129 --> 00:15:35,063
There are many possibilities...
225
00:15:35,097 --> 00:15:38,692
a shape-shifter,
a holographic projection.
226
00:15:38,734 --> 00:15:40,964
So, you are a skeptic, Worf.
227
00:15:41,070 --> 00:15:42,537
I like that.
228
00:15:42,571 --> 00:15:45,904
How do you know my name?
229
00:15:45,941 --> 00:15:48,409
We have met before.
230
00:15:48,444 --> 00:15:53,381
I appeared to you in a vision
in the caves of No'Mat.
231
00:15:53,416 --> 00:15:55,907
You were just a child then.
232
00:15:55,951 --> 00:15:59,443
I told you that you
would do something
233
00:15:59,488 --> 00:16:02,924
that no Klingon
had ever done before.
234
00:16:03,025 --> 00:16:09,692
You still do not believe
it is me, do you, Worf?
235
00:16:09,732 --> 00:16:12,098
I want to believe.
236
00:16:15,738 --> 00:16:18,332
That is a beginning.
237
00:16:33,789 --> 00:16:35,347
Gowron is the leader
of the Council.
238
00:16:35,391 --> 00:16:37,052
He commands
the entire defense force.
239
00:16:37,093 --> 00:16:38,890
If he chooses to oppose you...
240
00:16:38,928 --> 00:16:40,225
Do not worry.
241
00:16:40,262 --> 00:16:43,959
We are on the threshold
of a new era for our people.
242
00:16:44,066 --> 00:16:46,398
Klingons
from all over the Empire
243
00:16:46,435 --> 00:16:48,164
will flock to my banner.
244
00:16:50,039 --> 00:16:52,405
And yet...
245
00:16:52,441 --> 00:16:57,708
something still weighs heavy
on the brow of the son of Mogh.
246
00:16:57,746 --> 00:17:01,113
Are you contemplating
yet another question for me?
247
00:17:01,150 --> 00:17:04,483
After three days,
I am beginning to wonder
248
00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:07,489
if you know
how to do anything else.
249
00:17:07,523 --> 00:17:09,923
Questions are
the beginning of wisdom
250
00:17:09,992 --> 00:17:11,857
the mark of a true warrior.
251
00:17:11,894 --> 00:17:15,330
Do not forget that a leader
need not answer questions
252
00:17:15,364 --> 00:17:16,524
of those he leads.
253
00:17:16,565 --> 00:17:19,056
It is enough
that he says to do a thing
254
00:17:19,101 --> 00:17:20,398
and they will do it.
255
00:17:20,436 --> 00:17:22,666
If he says to run, they run.
256
00:17:22,705 --> 00:17:25,333
If he says to fight, they fight.
257
00:17:25,374 --> 00:17:28,366
If he says to die...
258
00:17:28,410 --> 00:17:30,275
they die.
259
00:17:33,415 --> 00:17:37,215
If the commander
is worthy of that trust.
260
00:18:33,242 --> 00:18:35,369
What is wrong?
261
00:18:35,411 --> 00:18:41,281
Is there only anger
and bloodlust in your souls?
262
00:18:41,317 --> 00:18:45,651
Is that all that is left
in the Klingon heart?
263
00:18:45,688 --> 00:18:49,146
We do not fight
merely to spill blood
264
00:18:49,191 --> 00:18:52,354
but to enrich the spirit.
265
00:18:52,394 --> 00:18:53,952
Look at us...
266
00:18:53,996 --> 00:18:57,659
two warriors locked in battle
267
00:18:57,700 --> 00:19:00,134
fighting for honor!
268
00:19:00,169 --> 00:19:04,731
How can you not sing
for all to hear
269
00:19:04,773 --> 00:19:07,435
"We are Klingons!"
270
00:19:09,778 --> 00:19:12,713
Yes.
271
00:19:12,748 --> 00:19:14,181
Let it out.
272
00:19:14,216 --> 00:19:17,276
Let the joy in your heart
be heard.
273
00:19:17,319 --> 00:19:22,222
We are Klingon!
We are Klingon.
274
00:19:23,926 --> 00:19:25,826
We are Klingons!
275
00:19:25,861 --> 00:19:30,025
We are Klingons!
We are Klingons!
276
00:19:30,065 --> 00:19:32,465
We are Klingons!
277
00:19:32,501 --> 00:19:37,268
We are Klingons!
We are Klingons!
278
00:19:37,306 --> 00:19:38,534
We are Klingons!
279
00:19:42,645 --> 00:19:46,342
Captain's Log, Stardate 46852.2.
280
00:19:46,382 --> 00:19:49,442
The Enterprise is to proceed
directly to the planet Boreth
281
00:19:49,485 --> 00:19:53,216
to take aboard
a very unusual guest.
282
00:19:53,255 --> 00:19:56,315
Did you take
any other tricorder readings...
283
00:19:56,359 --> 00:19:59,624
an anatomical profile
or a neurophysiology scan?
284
00:19:59,662 --> 00:20:00,959
No.
285
00:20:01,063 --> 00:20:02,894
It's going to be very difficult
286
00:20:02,932 --> 00:20:05,662
to eliminate any possibilities
at this point.
287
00:20:05,701 --> 00:20:08,602
He may be a coalescent being
taking Klingon form
288
00:20:08,637 --> 00:20:09,661
or a bioreplicant
289
00:20:09,705 --> 00:20:12,640
or even a Klingon
who has been surgically altered
290
00:20:12,675 --> 00:20:13,835
to look like Kahless.
291
00:20:13,876 --> 00:20:15,741
There is another possibility.
292
00:20:16,746 --> 00:20:19,943
He could be the real Kahless.
293
00:20:19,982 --> 00:20:22,576
He may have actually
returned as he promised.
294
00:20:22,618 --> 00:20:24,677
The appearance of Kahless
in the lava caves
295
00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:26,381
is consistent with the stories
296
00:20:26,422 --> 00:20:27,889
found in the Klingon
sacred texts.
297
00:20:27,923 --> 00:20:30,824
Worf, no offense,
but I have trouble believing
298
00:20:30,860 --> 00:20:34,796
that the man that I escorted
from deck eight is supernatural.
299
00:20:34,830 --> 00:20:36,491
I did not say that he is.
300
00:20:36,532 --> 00:20:37,829
I merely think
301
00:20:37,867 --> 00:20:41,530
we should not completely
reject the possibility.
302
00:20:41,570 --> 00:20:44,869
Look, we have no reason
to rule out anything.
303
00:20:44,907 --> 00:20:46,238
We are not ordered
304
00:20:46,275 --> 00:20:49,142
to investigate
the origins of our guest
305
00:20:49,178 --> 00:20:51,544
nor to tell anyone
what they should believe.
306
00:20:51,580 --> 00:20:54,515
We are simply to transport
Kahless to the homeworld
307
00:20:54,550 --> 00:20:57,542
and while he's here with us
308
00:20:57,586 --> 00:21:00,248
he will be treated
as an honored guest.
309
00:21:03,626 --> 00:21:05,355
Lieutenant.
310
00:21:08,731 --> 00:21:10,062
May I ask a question?
311
00:21:10,099 --> 00:21:13,557
In the absence of empirical
data, how will you determine
312
00:21:13,602 --> 00:21:16,162
whether or not
this is the real Kahless?
313
00:21:16,205 --> 00:21:18,105
It is not an empirical matter.
314
00:21:18,140 --> 00:21:21,109
It is a matter of... faith.
315
00:21:21,143 --> 00:21:22,735
Faith.
316
00:21:22,778 --> 00:21:26,305
Then you do believe
Kahless may have
317
00:21:26,348 --> 00:21:27,747
supernatural attributes.
318
00:21:27,783 --> 00:21:29,978
As an android,
I am unable to accept
319
00:21:30,019 --> 00:21:33,250
that which cannot be proven
through rational means.
320
00:21:33,289 --> 00:21:36,383
I would appreciate hearing
your insights on this matter.
321
00:21:36,425 --> 00:21:39,861
Perhaps some other time,
Commander.
322
00:21:39,895 --> 00:21:44,764
I... do not believe
I can provide much... insight
323
00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:46,358
at this moment.
324
00:22:03,152 --> 00:22:04,676
Welcome aboard, Gowron.
325
00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:07,211
Where is he, Picard?
326
00:22:08,324 --> 00:22:10,792
I assume that you
are referring to Kahless.
327
00:22:10,826 --> 00:22:13,158
I am referring
to the filthy pahtak
328
00:22:13,195 --> 00:22:14,594
who is using his name.
329
00:22:14,630 --> 00:22:17,827
Well, the person in question
330
00:22:17,867 --> 00:22:20,131
is in his quarters
at the moment.
331
00:22:20,169 --> 00:22:22,831
What have you learned
about him so far?
332
00:22:22,872 --> 00:22:24,806
What kind of medical
analysis have you made?
333
00:22:24,840 --> 00:22:26,967
Do you have any theories
about his true origin?
334
00:22:27,009 --> 00:22:28,237
We haven't done any analysis.
335
00:22:28,277 --> 00:22:30,973
What kind of fools do you have
working for you, Picard?
336
00:22:31,013 --> 00:22:33,481
The impostor's been aboard
for nearly a day.
337
00:22:33,516 --> 00:22:35,177
If you had wanted
to run tests on Kahless
338
00:22:35,217 --> 00:22:36,980
you should have sent
a Klingon ship for him.
339
00:22:37,086 --> 00:22:39,247
And have him begin spreading
his poisonous lies
340
00:22:39,288 --> 00:22:41,688
through a ship
of Ioyal Klingons? Never.
341
00:22:41,724 --> 00:22:42,816
If he really is an impostor
342
00:22:42,858 --> 00:22:44,382
then you have
nothing to worry about.
343
00:22:44,426 --> 00:22:46,519
Kahless has been dead
for 1,000 years
344
00:22:46,562 --> 00:22:48,757
but the idea of Kahless
is still alive.
345
00:22:48,797 --> 00:22:50,924
Have you ever fought
an idea, Picard?
346
00:22:50,966 --> 00:22:54,129
It has no weapon to destroy,
no body to kill.
347
00:22:54,170 --> 00:22:58,368
The idea of Kahless' return
must be stopped here, now
348
00:22:58,407 --> 00:23:02,241
or it will travel
through the Empire like a wave
349
00:23:02,278 --> 00:23:05,577
and leave nothing
but destruction behind.
350
00:23:13,222 --> 00:23:16,157
So, Gowron has come on board
in order to test your claim.
351
00:23:16,192 --> 00:23:18,786
Gowron knows
that his days are nearly over.
352
00:23:18,827 --> 00:23:21,955
Now he comes crawling aboard
with some kind of test.
353
00:23:22,031 --> 00:23:24,625
We do not have to prove
anything to Gowron.
354
00:23:24,667 --> 00:23:25,759
What is this test?
355
00:23:25,801 --> 00:23:27,200
He has brought a knife
with him...
356
00:23:27,236 --> 00:23:29,431
a knife that is supposed
to be stained
357
00:23:29,471 --> 00:23:30,961
with the blood of Kahless.
358
00:23:31,073 --> 00:23:33,132
Gowron has brought
the Knife of Kirom?
359
00:23:33,175 --> 00:23:34,904
No one is permitted
to remove it
360
00:23:34,944 --> 00:23:36,172
from the sacred vault.
361
00:23:36,212 --> 00:23:38,544
Gowron does not care
about what is sacred.
362
00:23:38,581 --> 00:23:40,879
He wants to run
a genetic analysis
363
00:23:40,916 --> 00:23:43,441
on a sample of the blood,
and on you.
364
00:23:43,485 --> 00:23:46,386
That should tell us
if there is a biological match.
365
00:23:46,422 --> 00:23:47,753
Now, if you agree to the test
366
00:23:47,790 --> 00:23:50,315
I will make the Enterprise
facilities available
367
00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:53,260
to ensure that it is conducted
impartially.
368
00:23:53,295 --> 00:23:57,698
Perhaps it is time
to settle the doubts
369
00:23:57,733 --> 00:24:01,635
of those
who still do not believe.
370
00:24:01,670 --> 00:24:04,434
I will allow this test.
371
00:24:08,777 --> 00:24:11,041
There, that should do it.
372
00:24:12,948 --> 00:24:16,384
Computer, run
a genetic comparison
373
00:24:16,418 --> 00:24:18,386
on this blood sample
374
00:24:18,420 --> 00:24:21,878
and the tissue
belonging to Kahless.
375
00:24:21,924 --> 00:24:24,358
The genetic patterns
are identical.
376
00:24:25,628 --> 00:24:27,220
But how?
377
00:24:27,263 --> 00:24:29,857
How can this be?
378
00:24:32,368 --> 00:24:34,336
It is true.
379
00:24:36,739 --> 00:24:39,435
Kahless has returned.
380
00:24:47,349 --> 00:24:50,716
Ah...
381
00:24:50,752 --> 00:24:51,980
I am sorry.
382
00:24:52,020 --> 00:24:54,318
Our replicators
do not do justice
383
00:24:54,356 --> 00:24:55,846
to Klingon warnog.
384
00:25:02,530 --> 00:25:05,328
It's been so long
since I have tasted
385
00:25:05,367 --> 00:25:06,925
any food or drink.
386
00:25:07,035 --> 00:25:10,368
There are many things
I have forgotten.
387
00:25:14,042 --> 00:25:15,373
Kahless...
388
00:25:18,046 --> 00:25:22,676
may I ask you about... death...
389
00:25:22,717 --> 00:25:24,651
and Sto-Vo-Kor?
390
00:25:24,686 --> 00:25:27,120
Tell me...
391
00:25:27,155 --> 00:25:29,851
what awaits us beyond this life?
392
00:25:31,359 --> 00:25:34,487
I do not have those answers.
393
00:25:34,529 --> 00:25:36,656
I am merely a traveler...
394
00:25:36,698 --> 00:25:39,428
someone who has journeyed
back and forth
395
00:25:39,467 --> 00:25:41,662
between this world and the next.
396
00:25:41,703 --> 00:25:43,330
While I am in this form
397
00:25:43,371 --> 00:25:45,862
I know only about this world.
398
00:25:47,041 --> 00:25:48,474
And there is
399
00:25:48,510 --> 00:25:51,206
much work for me to do
in this world.
400
00:25:51,246 --> 00:25:53,680
And you will be part of it,
Worf.
401
00:25:53,715 --> 00:25:55,114
Me?
402
00:25:55,150 --> 00:25:57,141
It was your purity of heart
403
00:25:57,185 --> 00:26:00,916
that summoned me
back from Sto-Vo-Kor
404
00:26:00,955 --> 00:26:02,252
and Koroth has told me
405
00:26:02,290 --> 00:26:04,281
about the respect
you have earned
406
00:26:04,325 --> 00:26:06,259
in the Federation
and the Empire.
407
00:26:06,294 --> 00:26:09,422
I want you to have
a place at my side
408
00:26:09,464 --> 00:26:12,433
as we restore honor
to our people.
409
00:26:14,502 --> 00:26:19,667
Let me tell you about
this new Empire we will forge.
410
00:26:23,178 --> 00:26:25,305
It will be glorious!
411
00:26:25,346 --> 00:26:26,779
It will be war!
412
00:26:29,517 --> 00:26:31,382
You're not a fool, Worf.
413
00:26:31,419 --> 00:26:34,820
Do you really think
that every Klingon in the Empire
414
00:26:34,856 --> 00:26:37,825
will bend his knee
and grovel before this man
415
00:26:37,859 --> 00:26:40,419
just because Koroth
says he is Kahless?
416
00:26:40,462 --> 00:26:42,692
He is Kahless.
417
00:26:44,199 --> 00:26:45,962
Your own test proved it.
418
00:26:46,034 --> 00:26:49,094
I will not hand over
the Empire to Koroth
419
00:26:49,137 --> 00:26:50,661
because of one test.
420
00:26:50,705 --> 00:26:52,434
It is not Koroth, it is...
421
00:26:52,474 --> 00:26:54,271
Of course, it is Koroth!
422
00:26:54,309 --> 00:26:56,106
Open your eyes!
423
00:26:56,144 --> 00:27:00,444
Koroth and the other guardians
have always opposed me.
424
00:27:00,482 --> 00:27:02,643
This is nothing more than a ploy
425
00:27:02,684 --> 00:27:04,777
for them
to finally seize power.
426
00:27:04,819 --> 00:27:08,380
Even now, there are warriors
on my own ship
427
00:27:08,423 --> 00:27:10,448
who want to see Kahless.
428
00:27:10,492 --> 00:27:13,461
There are others who believe
he is an impostor.
429
00:27:13,495 --> 00:27:15,929
The divisions
are already forming.
430
00:27:15,997 --> 00:27:18,727
But it does not have
to be this way.
431
00:27:18,766 --> 00:27:22,293
We could all join together
and welcome Kahless
432
00:27:22,337 --> 00:27:23,929
as a united people.
433
00:27:24,005 --> 00:27:25,632
Don't you see?
434
00:27:25,673 --> 00:27:29,109
This is exactly why
they want you to join them
435
00:27:29,143 --> 00:27:32,135
because your brother
sits on the Council
436
00:27:32,180 --> 00:27:35,911
and your voice
carries weight in the Empire.
437
00:27:35,950 --> 00:27:40,080
They want you to influence
others to follow them.
438
00:27:40,121 --> 00:27:41,816
Worf...
439
00:27:41,856 --> 00:27:44,950
we fought together once,
side by side
440
00:27:45,059 --> 00:27:48,586
to keep the Empire
from being torn apart.
441
00:27:48,630 --> 00:27:50,154
Will you stand by
442
00:27:50,198 --> 00:27:52,428
and let these impostors destroy
443
00:27:52,467 --> 00:27:55,800
all that we fought so hard
to protect?
444
00:27:59,641 --> 00:28:01,939
Renounce him, Worf.
445
00:28:01,976 --> 00:28:03,500
Stand with me
446
00:28:03,545 --> 00:28:07,777
and we can hold the Empire...
447
00:28:07,815 --> 00:28:09,282
together.
448
00:28:11,986 --> 00:28:13,613
You do not understand.
449
00:28:13,655 --> 00:28:15,452
Kahless is our future.
450
00:28:15,490 --> 00:28:16,923
Only with his help
451
00:28:16,991 --> 00:28:20,927
can we revive the pure warriors
within ourselves.
452
00:28:20,995 --> 00:28:22,792
Listen to him, Gowron.
453
00:28:22,830 --> 00:28:23,922
Open your heart.
454
00:28:23,998 --> 00:28:25,363
Hear his words.
455
00:28:25,400 --> 00:28:30,463
He will restore your faith
as he has restored mine.
456
00:28:30,505 --> 00:28:33,633
Give him a chance to lift
your spirit
457
00:28:33,675 --> 00:28:35,540
and cleanse your heart
458
00:28:35,577 --> 00:28:38,011
before you take up arms.
459
00:28:52,794 --> 00:28:54,261
Koroth...
460
00:28:54,295 --> 00:28:56,661
I see
that not all fools die young.
461
00:28:58,166 --> 00:29:00,396
Kahless.
462
00:29:05,306 --> 00:29:09,834
Kahless, may I present Gowron,
leader of the High Council.
463
00:29:09,877 --> 00:29:12,607
Kahless.
464
00:29:17,819 --> 00:29:23,451
Long ago, a storm was heading
toward the city of Quin'lat.
465
00:29:23,491 --> 00:29:26,619
The people sought protection
within the walls...
466
00:29:26,661 --> 00:29:29,323
all except one man
who remained outside.
467
00:29:29,364 --> 00:29:32,765
I went to him and asked
what he was doing.
468
00:29:32,800 --> 00:29:35,928
"I am not afraid," he said.
469
00:29:36,037 --> 00:29:40,633
"I will not hide my face
behind stone and mortar.
470
00:29:40,675 --> 00:29:45,635
I will stand before the wind
and make it respect me."
471
00:29:45,680 --> 00:29:49,172
I honored his choice
and went inside.
472
00:29:49,217 --> 00:29:52,084
The next day, the storm came
473
00:29:52,120 --> 00:29:55,647
and the man was killed.
474
00:29:55,690 --> 00:30:01,151
The wind
does not respect a fool.
475
00:30:01,195 --> 00:30:05,393
Do not stand before the wind,
Gowron.
476
00:30:05,433 --> 00:30:08,493
What was his name?
477
00:30:10,605 --> 00:30:12,505
What?
478
00:30:12,540 --> 00:30:14,440
If you were really there
479
00:30:14,475 --> 00:30:16,841
you should be able to tell us
480
00:30:16,878 --> 00:30:19,608
the name of the man
outside the walls.
481
00:30:19,647 --> 00:30:22,343
Describe him to us.
482
00:30:22,383 --> 00:30:24,851
What was he wearing?
483
00:30:24,886 --> 00:30:27,514
How tall was he?
484
00:30:27,555 --> 00:30:29,648
What color were his eyes?!
485
00:30:29,691 --> 00:30:32,683
I do not remember.
486
00:30:32,727 --> 00:30:36,356
It was long ago
and in another lifetime.
487
00:30:36,397 --> 00:30:38,991
What matters is I have returned
488
00:30:39,067 --> 00:30:42,366
to restore faith and hope
to my people
489
00:30:42,403 --> 00:30:45,702
to lead them back
to the way of honor
490
00:30:45,740 --> 00:30:48,208
and the glory
that once was theirs
491
00:30:48,242 --> 00:30:50,210
and can be again.
492
00:30:50,244 --> 00:30:53,008
Is that
what you oppose, Gowron?
493
00:30:53,114 --> 00:30:55,480
I oppose you.
494
00:30:55,516 --> 00:30:57,177
I say you are not Kahless.
495
00:30:58,386 --> 00:31:00,411
And I will not
496
00:31:00,455 --> 00:31:06,325
bend my knee to you...
as long as I can draw breath...
497
00:31:06,360 --> 00:31:08,692
or pick up a blade.
498
00:31:18,039 --> 00:31:19,301
No!
499
00:31:19,340 --> 00:31:19,931
Koroth!
500
00:31:32,987 --> 00:31:35,717
Good try, Gowron,
but not enough.
501
00:31:49,437 --> 00:31:52,429
You have no joy, Gowron.
502
00:31:52,473 --> 00:31:55,203
Is your heart so full
of mistrust and suspicion
503
00:31:55,243 --> 00:31:57,006
that you've forgotten
what it means
504
00:31:57,111 --> 00:31:58,373
to be truly Klingon?
505
00:32:08,356 --> 00:32:09,948
Kahless...
506
00:32:10,024 --> 00:32:13,016
the greatest warrior
of them all.
507
00:32:27,541 --> 00:32:29,133
Everything will be all right.
508
00:32:29,176 --> 00:32:30,234
We will say that...
509
00:32:30,277 --> 00:32:32,404
that Gowron used
a dishonorable tactic
510
00:32:32,446 --> 00:32:33,879
in his fight with Kahless.
511
00:32:33,914 --> 00:32:34,881
That he cheated.
512
00:32:34,915 --> 00:32:36,075
That is a lie.
He did not...
513
00:32:36,117 --> 00:32:37,982
We do not need to hear any more
from the son of Mogh.
514
00:32:38,085 --> 00:32:39,245
None of this would
have happened
515
00:32:39,286 --> 00:32:40,651
if you had not brought
them together.
516
00:32:40,688 --> 00:32:41,655
I am Kahless.
517
00:32:41,689 --> 00:32:43,816
I am the strongest,
the bravest warrior.
518
00:32:43,858 --> 00:32:45,553
Do not think
about what happened.
519
00:32:45,593 --> 00:32:48,118
You must think of the future,
of the Empire.
520
00:32:48,162 --> 00:32:50,255
There is no future here
521
00:32:50,297 --> 00:32:53,130
no glorious new era
for our people.
522
00:32:53,167 --> 00:32:55,328
Gowron was right.
523
00:32:55,369 --> 00:32:58,497
You did not know the name
of the man who faced the storm.
524
00:32:58,539 --> 00:33:01,440
You do not even know
what real warnog tastes like
525
00:33:01,475 --> 00:33:03,340
and you certainly are not
the greatest warrior of all.
526
00:33:03,377 --> 00:33:06,608
Whoever you are,
you are not Kahless.
527
00:33:06,647 --> 00:33:08,581
You have said enough.
528
00:33:08,616 --> 00:33:10,106
Now, get out!
529
00:33:10,151 --> 00:33:12,176
You are using
the name of Kahless
530
00:33:12,219 --> 00:33:13,652
for some twisted game.
531
00:33:13,687 --> 00:33:16,087
For that alone, you should die
532
00:33:16,123 --> 00:33:18,216
and if you do not tell me
what you have done
533
00:33:18,259 --> 00:33:19,590
I will kill you right here!
534
00:33:23,697 --> 00:33:25,961
Problems with your memory
535
00:33:26,033 --> 00:33:29,662
are the result
of the way you returned.
536
00:33:29,703 --> 00:33:32,228
What do you mean?
537
00:33:32,273 --> 00:33:33,467
We, the guardians
538
00:33:33,507 --> 00:33:36,601
have been awaiting your return
for centuries
539
00:33:36,644 --> 00:33:39,169
but we did not have
the technology
540
00:33:39,213 --> 00:33:41,204
to bring you back until now.
541
00:33:41,248 --> 00:33:43,978
We were able to use
an organic sample
542
00:33:44,051 --> 00:33:47,282
of the first Kahless
to give you life.
543
00:33:47,321 --> 00:33:48,879
The first Kahless?
544
00:33:48,923 --> 00:33:50,481
A clone.
545
00:33:55,496 --> 00:33:58,090
He is a clone.
546
00:33:58,132 --> 00:34:01,124
What is a clone?
547
00:34:01,168 --> 00:34:03,568
A being created in a laboratory
548
00:34:03,604 --> 00:34:07,062
by using genetic material
from another being.
549
00:34:07,108 --> 00:34:08,939
You are a copy, a fraud!
550
00:34:09,043 --> 00:34:10,874
You are not just a copy.
551
00:34:10,911 --> 00:34:13,607
We gave you more
than the body of Kahless.
552
00:34:13,647 --> 00:34:15,274
We found a way
553
00:34:15,316 --> 00:34:18,717
to imprint specific information
in your neurosynaptic patterns.
554
00:34:18,752 --> 00:34:20,947
We gave you memories,
and not just any memories.
555
00:34:21,055 --> 00:34:23,922
We gave you the experiences
of Kahless
556
00:34:23,958 --> 00:34:26,153
as written in the sacred texts.
557
00:34:26,193 --> 00:34:27,558
So...
558
00:34:27,595 --> 00:34:31,895
I did not do any of the things
that I remember.
559
00:34:31,932 --> 00:34:35,197
I was never
in the city of Quin'lat.
560
00:34:35,236 --> 00:34:38,694
I never went
to the Kri'stak Volcano.
561
00:34:38,739 --> 00:34:40,331
You were not awakened
562
00:34:40,374 --> 00:34:43,309
until we transported
you into the cave
563
00:34:43,344 --> 00:34:44,436
and you appeared to Worf.
564
00:34:44,478 --> 00:34:46,207
Before that, you were
unconscious in a laboratory
565
00:34:46,247 --> 00:34:48,147
where we accelerated
your growth
566
00:34:48,182 --> 00:34:50,742
corrected any genetic
anomalies that occurred
567
00:34:50,784 --> 00:34:53,150
gave you the wisdom
and memories that...
568
00:34:56,824 --> 00:35:01,591
They grew you in a test tube
like some kind of fungus
569
00:35:01,629 --> 00:35:04,655
and programmed you
like a machine.
570
00:35:04,698 --> 00:35:06,325
You are twisting the truth.
571
00:35:06,367 --> 00:35:08,130
You talk to me of truth.
572
00:35:08,169 --> 00:35:12,629
You who have brought to life
this lie and called it Kahless.
573
00:35:12,673 --> 00:35:13,935
It is not a lie.
574
00:35:14,041 --> 00:35:16,305
Genetically, he is Kahless
575
00:35:16,343 --> 00:35:19,141
and he is needed by our people.
576
00:35:19,180 --> 00:35:21,546
You know better than anyone
the corruption and dishonor
577
00:35:21,582 --> 00:35:22,879
that is destroying the Empire.
578
00:35:22,917 --> 00:35:24,179
They need him.
579
00:35:24,218 --> 00:35:26,243
They do not need a false god!
580
00:35:26,287 --> 00:35:28,346
How do you know
that this was not the way
581
00:35:28,389 --> 00:35:30,220
the prophecy was
to be fulfilled?
582
00:35:30,257 --> 00:35:32,589
Who is to say
that what we did was wrong?
583
00:35:32,626 --> 00:35:34,116
I am.
584
00:35:34,161 --> 00:35:37,756
I will not let this fraud
continue.
585
00:35:37,798 --> 00:35:38,890
Worf!
586
00:35:41,068 --> 00:35:43,559
You cannot tell Gowron of this.
587
00:35:43,604 --> 00:35:46,300
Do not give me orders,
Koroth.
588
00:35:46,340 --> 00:35:48,706
All right, but consider this.
589
00:35:48,742 --> 00:35:53,076
If you tell Gowron
what we have told you
590
00:35:53,113 --> 00:35:56,947
it will destroy him,
and with him
591
00:35:56,984 --> 00:36:02,854
the last chance
to restore hope to our people.
592
00:36:02,890 --> 00:36:05,154
It's your choice.
593
00:36:26,013 --> 00:36:29,881
They have been sitting here
for three hours, 17 minutes.
594
00:36:29,917 --> 00:36:32,442
They refused to return
to their ship
595
00:36:32,486 --> 00:36:34,647
with the rest of Gowron's men.
596
00:36:34,688 --> 00:36:39,057
They insisted upon waiting here
until they see Kahless again.
597
00:36:39,093 --> 00:36:41,653
Their faith appears
to be unaffected
598
00:36:41,695 --> 00:36:43,959
by his inability
to defeat Gowron.
599
00:36:44,031 --> 00:36:45,692
They still believe.
600
00:36:47,868 --> 00:36:49,233
Then they are fools.
601
00:36:49,269 --> 00:36:51,203
Does that mean you
no longer believe
602
00:36:51,238 --> 00:36:52,762
this is the real Kahless?
603
00:36:52,806 --> 00:36:54,068
Yes.
604
00:36:54,108 --> 00:36:56,599
I am curious.
605
00:36:56,643 --> 00:36:57,837
Do you still think
606
00:36:57,878 --> 00:37:00,312
the real Kahless
will return someday
607
00:37:00,347 --> 00:37:01,712
or has this experience
608
00:37:01,749 --> 00:37:03,410
only deepened
the spiritual crisis
609
00:37:03,450 --> 00:37:05,281
which originally
sent you to Boreth?
610
00:37:10,157 --> 00:37:12,352
I do not know.
611
00:37:12,393 --> 00:37:14,190
I understand your dilemma.
612
00:37:14,228 --> 00:37:16,662
I once had what could
be considered
613
00:37:16,697 --> 00:37:18,289
a crisis of the spirit.
614
00:37:18,332 --> 00:37:19,924
You?
615
00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:21,092
Yes.
616
00:37:21,135 --> 00:37:22,625
The Starfleet officers
617
00:37:22,669 --> 00:37:25,229
who first activated me
on Omicron Theta
618
00:37:25,272 --> 00:37:26,864
told me I was an android
619
00:37:26,907 --> 00:37:29,467
nothing more
than a sophisticated machine
620
00:37:29,510 --> 00:37:30,841
with human form.
621
00:37:30,878 --> 00:37:34,075
However, I realized
that if I were simply a machine
622
00:37:34,114 --> 00:37:36,708
I could never be anything else.
623
00:37:36,750 --> 00:37:40,186
I could never grow
beyond my programming.
624
00:37:40,220 --> 00:37:42,916
I found that difficult to accept
625
00:37:42,956 --> 00:37:46,323
so I chose to believe
that I was a person
626
00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:49,591
that I had the potential
to be more than a collection
627
00:37:49,630 --> 00:37:51,495
of circuits and subprocessors.
628
00:37:51,532 --> 00:37:54,399
It is a belief
which I still hold.
629
00:37:57,805 --> 00:38:01,172
How did you come
to your decision?
630
00:38:01,208 --> 00:38:06,646
I made... a leap of faith.
631
00:38:22,162 --> 00:38:27,623
The man who appeared to me
on Boreth is not Kahless.
632
00:38:27,668 --> 00:38:30,136
He is a clone.
633
00:38:30,170 --> 00:38:31,603
A clone?
634
00:38:31,638 --> 00:38:32,696
Yes.
635
00:38:32,739 --> 00:38:34,138
Did you really think
636
00:38:34,174 --> 00:38:36,938
you could get away
with this kind of fraud, Koroth?
637
00:38:36,977 --> 00:38:39,639
I will have you and this
abomination put to death.
638
00:38:39,680 --> 00:38:41,511
It does not matter, Gowron.
639
00:38:41,548 --> 00:38:44,881
You will still not be able
to stand against him.
640
00:38:44,918 --> 00:38:46,180
What?
641
00:38:46,220 --> 00:38:47,414
He's not real.
642
00:38:47,454 --> 00:38:48,944
You just said so.
643
00:38:48,989 --> 00:38:50,616
I said he was not Kahless
644
00:38:50,657 --> 00:38:52,682
but, in the minds of our people
645
00:38:52,726 --> 00:38:55,251
he can be
just as powerful as Kahless.
646
00:38:55,295 --> 00:38:57,889
Even now, two members
of your own crew
647
00:38:57,931 --> 00:39:01,594
are sitting on our holodeck
waiting for him to return.
648
00:39:01,635 --> 00:39:04,001
I do not care what they think.
649
00:39:04,037 --> 00:39:05,868
But they are not alone.
650
00:39:05,906 --> 00:39:07,464
Like many of our people
651
00:39:07,508 --> 00:39:09,772
they need something
to believe in
652
00:39:09,810 --> 00:39:13,075
just like I did... something
larger than themselves
653
00:39:13,113 --> 00:39:15,673
something that will give
their lives meaning.
654
00:39:15,716 --> 00:39:16,910
They need Kahless.
655
00:39:16,984 --> 00:39:19,418
But when they find out
the truth...
656
00:39:19,453 --> 00:39:21,318
It does not matter, Gowron.
657
00:39:21,355 --> 00:39:25,121
Despite the facts,
they will still believe.
658
00:39:25,158 --> 00:39:28,355
They will make a leap of faith
659
00:39:28,395 --> 00:39:30,920
and there will be
others just like them...
660
00:39:30,998 --> 00:39:32,590
not everyone, but enough
661
00:39:32,633 --> 00:39:34,897
to plunge the Empire
into civil war
662
00:39:34,935 --> 00:39:36,129
if you oppose them.
663
00:39:36,169 --> 00:39:37,466
What are you saying?
664
00:39:37,504 --> 00:39:40,029
That I should just hand over
the Empire?
665
00:39:40,073 --> 00:39:43,634
No, that would be unwise
as well.
666
00:39:43,677 --> 00:39:46,612
Then what are you proposing,
Worf?
667
00:39:48,715 --> 00:39:52,549
You were right about one thing,
Koroth.
668
00:39:52,586 --> 00:39:57,182
Our people are becoming
decadent and corrupt.
669
00:39:57,224 --> 00:39:59,954
They need moral leadership.
670
00:39:59,993 --> 00:40:04,157
Kahless can be that leader...
671
00:40:04,197 --> 00:40:05,596
as Emperor.
672
00:40:05,632 --> 00:40:08,965
There hasn't been an Emperor
in three centuries.
673
00:40:09,002 --> 00:40:12,802
The political power will remain
with the High Council.
674
00:40:12,839 --> 00:40:14,898
Kahless would be a figurehead
675
00:40:14,942 --> 00:40:18,309
but he will have the ability
to rally the people
676
00:40:18,345 --> 00:40:19,642
to lead by example
677
00:40:19,680 --> 00:40:21,978
to guide them
in spiritual matters.
678
00:40:22,049 --> 00:40:25,985
The title is meaningless
without the power to back it up.
679
00:40:26,019 --> 00:40:30,615
Real power comes
from within the heart.
680
00:40:30,657 --> 00:40:34,184
You would have the power
to mold the Klingon heart.
681
00:40:34,227 --> 00:40:36,957
You could return them
to honorable ways
682
00:40:36,997 --> 00:40:39,659
according to the original
teachings of Kahless
683
00:40:39,700 --> 00:40:40,928
which are within you.
684
00:40:40,968 --> 00:40:43,436
It would be a great challenge
685
00:40:43,470 --> 00:40:46,667
if you have
the courage to accept it.
686
00:40:46,707 --> 00:40:51,007
And what will we tell the people
about their new Emperor?
687
00:40:51,078 --> 00:40:54,377
That he appeared in a cave
or a laboratory?
688
00:40:54,414 --> 00:40:57,508
We will tell them the truth.
689
00:41:00,187 --> 00:41:02,485
All of the truth
690
00:41:02,522 --> 00:41:03,887
but we will tell them
691
00:41:03,924 --> 00:41:06,154
that, even if he is
not the real Kahless
692
00:41:06,193 --> 00:41:08,525
he is the rightful heir
to Kahless.
693
00:41:08,562 --> 00:41:11,725
And if I refuse to go along
with this?
694
00:41:11,765 --> 00:41:15,223
Then my brother and those
who support him on the Council
695
00:41:15,268 --> 00:41:17,566
will fight you,
and I will fight you
696
00:41:17,604 --> 00:41:21,597
and the Empire
will fall back into civil war.
697
00:41:23,877 --> 00:41:26,402
What do you say about this,
Koroth?
698
00:41:26,446 --> 00:41:30,576
What I say is unimportant.
699
00:41:35,222 --> 00:41:37,747
It is acceptable.
700
00:41:53,173 --> 00:41:54,435
Join with me, Gowron.
701
00:41:54,474 --> 00:42:00,504
Let us usher in
this new era together.
702
00:42:03,850 --> 00:42:10,517
Vorch-doh-baghk...
703
00:42:16,029 --> 00:42:18,589
Kahless.
704
00:42:27,207 --> 00:42:29,072
Farewell, Worf.
705
00:42:29,109 --> 00:42:31,669
Good-bye.
706
00:42:31,712 --> 00:42:33,145
What's wrong?
707
00:42:33,180 --> 00:42:37,082
You should be proud
of what you've accomplished.
708
00:42:42,889 --> 00:42:47,417
I went to Boreth
to find my faith.
709
00:42:47,461 --> 00:42:50,988
For a time, I thought I had
710
00:42:51,031 --> 00:42:54,762
but my heart is empty again.
711
00:42:54,801 --> 00:42:58,828
I do not know what to believe.
712
00:42:58,872 --> 00:43:02,330
You doubt the real Kahless
will return one day.
713
00:43:02,375 --> 00:43:05,105
You doubt that he is still
waiting for you
714
00:43:05,145 --> 00:43:08,205
in Sto-Vo-Kor.
715
00:43:11,184 --> 00:43:17,748
Kahless left us, all of us,
a powerful legacy
716
00:43:17,791 --> 00:43:22,728
a way of thinking and acting
that makes us Klingon.
717
00:43:22,763 --> 00:43:27,928
If his words hold wisdom
and his philosophy is honorable
718
00:43:27,968 --> 00:43:30,960
what does it matter
if he returns?
719
00:43:31,071 --> 00:43:36,668
What is important
is that we follow his teachings.
720
00:43:36,710 --> 00:43:39,338
Perhaps the words
721
00:43:39,379 --> 00:43:44,407
are more important
than the man.
