General Martok Asks Worf To Be Become His First Officer

Star Trek Deep space Nine Season 5 Episode 21 Soldiers of the Empire

[@Deadman3913]

I love the relationship between the General & the Doctor. No other Klingon would tolerate such talk from a human and no Human would have the balls to talk to a Klingon that way. But they have shared experiences in a prison camp and have earned each other’s respect. What’s more, they understand each other. That’s why Martok said “Thank you” (not a common thing for a Klingon to say to a Human) and Bashir, instead of saying “You’re welcome” scolded him about the blood on the carpet. That’s rapport not easily achieved.

[@DarkTaylick]

That explains why Bashir was smiling 😆

[@Synthonym]

Not just that but the remarks Martok makes to Bashir in the prison about "the Healer that bound the Warrior's wounds" suggests that Martok respects doctors and medics in general. He started off as a common soldier and so is likely well aware of the need of a good medic

[@purplefood1]

@@Synthonym He's not stupid no but he's definitely got a particular bond with Bashir.

[@darkjediMIK]

Right and he gave him the courtesy to let him know where the line was too.

[@j3pelfrey]

Martok was such a great character. The fact that he understood the joke from the doctor and just smiled was perfect. Martok made friends everywhere he went because he was humble and he listened to people.

[@NormAppleton]

Yes, he also respected Nog. Martok is a Gent.

[@Foolishpleazure]

yeah,I agree,Martok really was a great character!!!!

[@jawstrock2215]

And I love how it ties in to his back story. Unlike all the other Klingons we see that are arrogant, and maybe easily violent, and mostly all comes from a Noble house or are attached to it, Martok came from very humble beginnings, and had to fight his way up the rank, taught him respect for the troops. Then his incarceration with the Jem'adar really taught him humility.

[@dm121984]

​@@jawstrock2215very true, Martok is a rare person, who through his own ability rose up to second in command of the Klingon Empire and through the loyalty and wise he showed as a leader, Worf gave him the Chancellorship. Side note, he and Dr Bashir where imprisoned together for a long time and it's clear they have a bond that few humans and Klingons could.

[@TheGreatSeraphim]

I like how for a moment Martok was actually concerned he left blood all over the carpet before realizing he was being trolled.

[@mbaxter22]

I like how at the end, Bashir angrily says “It takes days to get it out of the carpet!”. You can tell Bashir puts it that way because he knows Klingon psychology. They’d much rather have their doctor angrily admonish them about making a mess rather than showing concern and compassion, which to a Klingon is patronizing and even insulting.

[@EddieA907]

Exactly.

[@falconwind00]

Ah that explains it! The EMH was stuck on Klingon mode the whole time.

[@mbaxter22]

@@falconwind00 LOL. I'd never pictured Robert Picardo on a Klingon ship, but now that you've mentioned it, that would be gold!

[@danielweston9188]

This is interesting to me as some of the indigenous cultures of the Amazon basin when a guard leaves for a "patrol" (needed to defend territorial harvest/hunting areas from the neighbors) he stands at the edge of the compound and complains that he will miss his family and doesn't want to go (he does) and they yell insults back - telling him they don't want him to return - he is too old, too weak and never home. (That way he won't be homesick and distracted.) They believe this will help him return safe. When he returns he acts like he "hates them" ( I understand the only rule is he can't disrespect the elders but everyone else is fair game for comments). The family earns him back by showering him with physical affection, bathing* and gifts they have made while he was gone. It all an act and sometimes I understand it is so over the top that the reunions becomes part of their oral lore. My only comment is both times I saw a reunion the family dogs looked very confused. With a WTF look on their face. *Bathing was a big only family bonding thing - (It took a lot of work to prepare the Hot water and cleaning supplies) No one ever bathe me . . . . . . I have often wondered if some of the Klingon behavior was based on and the Kayapó people (they call themselves Mebêngôkre) as they have a blood wine (bitter - no blood but deep deep red) and an early age of boys becoming men by ritual death. For he Kayapó oratory and group song is a highly-valued social practice. They don't take captives once provoked into a fight. The Xikrin people (neighbors on the left side of the river) consider themselves more evolved and logical and use a three finger signal as a greeting for long life. They order their houses in a certain way - every village layout is the same within a few feet I am told. The natural world is seen as competitive and aggressive. Neutralization of this aggressivity is performed by communal rituals to maintain social order within the group. They consider their language perfect everyone else's confusing - they like Latin. On the other side they don't trust outsiders even as they smile and trade. Vulcan?

[@TsukabuNosoratori2]

@@mbaxter22 I can see it now- Martok admonishing his underlings saying that the doctor Bashir doesn't want quite so much blood on his carpets or other parts of his floors anymore due to their recklessness during training. It's not offensive to their pride, but it would get the point across.

[@benjaminbierley2074]

The art of diplomacy is conversing with someone not in a way they simply understand, but in a way they appreciate. I suppose even a second rate doctor (Bashir the best tho) that has to treat those from so many varied cultures would make a first rate diplomat.

@@lucki4780 How many points do I need to win something? XD If there were a race of dirty, savage Space Pirates, it would definitely be either the Klingon or the Saiyan lol. It's like 'who let the drunk guy drive?'

Martok sounds like any starship commander. No patience for the medical officer treating him.

2:24 WORF > nog < MARTOK XD

[@babayagaslobbedaknobba]

Wow, I can't wait until the next episode of this mini-show on KZbin! I wonder what Worf will say...

[@peterburke1709]

This is the 2nd time worfs been a first officer first time on enterprise d in a parallel universe and 3rd time on enterprise e in some non canon novels

I feel like it's Bashir's cleaning problems are his own fault for *carpeting the floors in Sickbay.*

1:15 that smile haha

[@TRGFBC]

The look in Worfs eyes when he was asked to be first officer...... part of me wonders if he was thinking klingon promotion to captain. He had just about killed the man

[@amarieoflothlorien]

I was never a Klingon fan, But I liked Martok and the Duras sisters
