Riker gains the respect of the Klingons | Star Trek TNG

[@Sherwoody]

What we learned from this clip: 1. Riker was a badass 2. Electrical panels on Klingon vessels are as bad as Federation ones.

[@Nicolas_Cage_Bees]

You just know the Federation shared the knowledge of explodium panels with the Klingons when they formed the alliance.

[@Sherwoody]

@@Nicolas_Cage_Bees they’re from the planet Acme.

[@85Funkadelic]

@@Sherwoody Underrated joke! Well done!

[@Americanpatriot-zo2tk]

Riker was pretty cool. I must say, I am tougher!

[@Romulan2469]

We also learned that Klingon vessels are dirty, cramped with an unhealthy obsession for red lighting. They are hardly a match for the beautiful yet deadly Romulan D'deridex class warships.

[@neneshubby]

Commander Riker “So I take it you challenge my authority over you.” Lt Klag “That is correct. Your uniform does not creak loudly enough with the sound of leather as does mine”

[@LucianDevine]

One of the things I love most is actually how sweaty and winded Riker is after the scrum. It shows just how much force and effort he had to put into it to physically overtake and muscle around a Klingon warrior.

[@genmockify]

Yes indeed, their entire body is perfect for fighting if you saw the one episode where the doctor operates on Lt. Worf.

[@JonnySublime]

Probably no A/C on a bird of prey.

[@LucianDevine]

@@JonnySublime Prolly that too. They likely believe it's a weak creature comfort, like bedding.

[@metsrus]

funny thing is, even though the Vulcans aren't built like it, they are physically stronger than Klingons in Star Trek canon.

[@nudegamer6496]

​​@@metsrusexactly dude. I forgot which episode of TNG it was, and I honestly don't remember the exact dialog, but I think there was an episode where Lt. Worf's wrist had been broken, but due to the whole crew (including Lt. Commander Data) having had their memory erased Worf didn't know who had broken his wrist but mentioned that a Vulcan crewmember could have EASILY done it. It's been over a decade since I last saw the episode, so please correct me if I'm wrong.

[@KubanKevin]

I love how the Klingon Captain demanded they speak English. Klingons do not tolerate disrespect.

[@Mark-yn4vl]

It was a nice touch. The captain saw the officer was dishonoring and insulting Riker in a cowardly manner "behind his back" so to speak. He knew Riker didn't know Klingon so he's basically saying to the officer "If you're going to dishonor a man, dishonor him to his face where he can understand it." Even though the Klingon captain was leery and testing Riker from the second he came on board he showed Riker respect and gave Riker many opportunities to prove his loyalty and honor.

[@LordyT34]

Honor goes both ways, anyone with true honor knows that

[@inkvizitor669]

In fact, there is one interesting feature here. The Klingons are ruled by a warrior aristocracy, and since Riker is also a military man, it means that he is their equal. If he were a scientist or a simple civilian, they would consider its not worth even to talk to him. Also interesting is the fact that the junior in rank showed disrespect to Riker who is higher in rank, which means that he does not show respect for the captain either. Which means it's Riker's duty to punish the upstart. Very medieval.

[@eekthecat9617]

Of course not. There was one where two Klingons were on the run and bumped into a child. There was a tense moment where they just gave the child back to their mom. "Only cowards take hostages".

[@MaybeDHitHim]

@@eekthecat9617 that's gangster as hell. "We're bastards but we're not fucking bastards".

[@claysmith6715]

I feel like the Second officer was ready for a strike from Riker at that point, but he was dead set on calling him out in front of the Captain thinking Riker was all talk. Always loved this episode of TNG.

[@sigbauer9782]

I've always found it funny when the universal translator took a break.

I think Riker is more open to talking first then Kirk.... But Riker still has the fighter in him and the lady's man too...

[@Badgerlust]

Yeah but Kirk gets beat up a lot though 😅

[@tomdumb6937]

Rikers part was written for Kirk. Rik - Kirk The first year scripts were written for Kirk and company

[@anthonybeavan5648]

The Klingon Captain, Kargan, was played by the late Christopher Charles Collins (1949-1994, aged 44) who was born with the name Christopher Lawrence Latta - and he was well known for his 1980s cartoon voice work for the Transformers series (as the Decepticon Starscream) and G.I. Joe (as the Cobra Commander)

[@pclifton4]

Holy crap, would have never guessed that Klingon was Starscreem.

[@GladDestronger]

basically riker is talking to cobra commander and the treacherous jet starscream. neat factoid.

@@GladDestronger Well hell, we had GI Joe in the first TNG ep. Duke. Who I met some years back.

[@ohiorushbaby]

The reason that the Klingons and the Federation have a practically unbreakable alliance is simple: honor and integrity. They may handle their matters in entirely different ways, but the moral lessons are virtually identical. Trust is earned, not granted, and both the Federation and the Klingons knew this was their greatest weapon against their common enemies.

[@Kronosfobi]

Then their alliance breaks twice in the future due to Klingon expantionism and Federation's aid to enemies due to sheer idealism.

[@blackbot7113]

"Practically unbreakable" you say... Let's ask the Dominion what they have to say about that.

[@harrellt1405]

We lack these kinds of show nowadays. Its all about random violence nowadays like rick and morty or even john wick.

[@NoreenHoltzen]

Beating up the Klingon didn’t earn the Klingon’s trust but forced the Klingon’s obedience. You can’t earn trust by beating someone (any creature up) even on a logical basis.

[@Aleiza_49]

​@@NoreenHoltzenit can earn trust.....trust that they'll curb stomp you if you disobey them 😂

[@eddiekalista3222]

I love how Riker’s victory isn’t just from a cheap shot. He starts out with that sucker punch move, but he also shoots the fade with Klag. He can actually square up to a Klingon warrior. That’s no small feat for a squishy human.

[@autarchprinceps]

Sure about that? It seems like the mighty Klingon warriors can be defeated in hand to hand by just about anybody. Unprepared Starfleet scientists usually beat up bigger numbers with wrist punches, despite the Klingons being armed with actual close combat weapons and armour.

[@oldtwinsna8347]

Riker is framed on par with him so not too surprising. This is Riker in his prime, physically, so it would be expected a Starfleet academy graduate on the fast track to the admiralty (that's how he was projected at this time period) would be expected as highly proficient in hand to hand combat.

[@jonathanbair523]

You need to watch the full TNG.. Later on they make jokes about not having human food and he may need one of the females to breast feed him....He shuts that down by taking Gah and starts to eat it.... That earned him more respect then the fight on the bridge.

[@Anomaly188]

The challenge was laid out and the onus was put on Riker on how to respond. They expected him to fold and be diplomatic like a stereotypical human and instead Riker gave Klag proper Klingon corrective action which I bet left the Captain pleasantly surprised at seeing a human not afraid to throw down.

[@scottwhitley3392]

@@Anomaly188wonder what the Klingons would have thought of 20th century humans 💀

[@bobpage6597]

2:52 - always like Captain Kargan's approach here. Putting it to Riker as a first 'command decision', putting it entirely in his hands to see how he handles himself. Then he sits down with a smirk and just watches haha!! RIP to Christopher Collins - he died in 1994 at the age of 44 from a cerebral haemorrhage, comments from a number of his friends at the time suggest he had a number of 'personal issues' that likely contributed to his early death. Collins would make several appearances on Star Trek, playing the Pakled Captain in TNG's 'Samaritan Snare', he played the Albino's head guard in DS9's 'Blood Oath' and the Markalian character Durg in the DS9 episode 'The Passenger'.

[@jonathanbair523]

That was a really good test. He was expecting Riker to talk as the Federation always was viewed as being soft, and he wanted to see if Riker would hold Starfleet rules or go with the Klingon way of fighting to end a disagreement.

[@selfsaboteursounds5273]

I also think there's some buried context here: if Klang is one of those guys who's always that insolent or argumentative, then the Kilingon Captain knows this since they've been serving together. So the Captain is more than happy to let Riker fuck Klang up for talking shit right off the bat

I think what really got this for me is how, if you read the technical brief on Klingon ships, they are deliberately kept as dark, hot and uncomfortable places. This is to keep the crew spoiling for a fight, eager to board an enemy ship and engage with their bat'leths. That a human could thrive in conditions they're accustomed to must've impressed them a lot, especially since I imagine a lot of klingons view humans as soft.

[@GLo-qc8rz]

I love the nuanced portrayal in this. It would be easy to picture the klingons as the bully, but they do not do so: 1. The captn does not instantly dismiss Riker when he sets foot on the bridge, rather inquires to his dedication to make sure he can trust him as an equal member of the ship 2. When the lieutenant does not address Riker in plain language, he corrects him immediately so Riker has the chance to respond 3. When the lieutenant challenges Riker the captn does not intervene since physical prowess IS something that is important to Klingons to hold any rank. If Riker is to be treated as a member of the ship he must prove himself on this too. It's a great scene imo because it shows Klingons not as oppertunistic aggressive beings but rather as a race that holds a specific code regardless of race or background. (also funny is the short intro, the Klingon is as much fascinated as he is ignorant about other races which is also an aspect of Klingon culture)
