WORF: As time passes,
a boy inevitably becomes a man.

But what is not inevitable
is that a man become a warrior.

A warrior must be forged like a sword,
tempered by...

By...

Tempered by experience.

The path of a warrior begins with--

- Alexander.
- No, wait!

[ERIC LAUGHS

Sorry, l didn't mean to hit you.

What is the meaning of this?

I'm sorry.

We made fullerenes
at chemistry class today

and filled them with water.

I asked you to meet me here
after school.

I have been waiting for you.

I forgot.

You forgot because
you allowed yourself

to be distracted by foolishness.

I'm sorry.

There is something very important
I want to discuss with you.

It concerns your future. Sit.

As time passes,
a boy inevitably becomes a man.

But what is not inevitable
is that a man becomes a sword.

What?

No, I meant warrior.

The path of a warrior begins
with the first Rite of Ascension.

Is that when they hit you
with pain sticks?

- No, no, that is the second rite.
- Oh.

You are approaching
the age of ascension.

It is time for you to prepare
for the ceremony.

Well, what do I have to do?

Well, your fighting skills
will be tested

and your knowledge
of the teachings of Kahless.

It will be challenging,
but I will help you prepare.

These are the kor'tova candles.

They represent the fire that burns
within the heart of a warrior.

When you light yours,

you will be declaring your intention
to become a warrior.

Go ahead.

What if I don't want to?

If you do not participate in the rite
before the age of 1 3 years,

you will never be able to become
a true Klingon warrior.

Well, I don't care about that.

You may not care about it now,
but someday you might.

Well, Mother always said

that I didn't have to do any
of this Klingon stuff if I didn't want to.

- It is your decision, but--
- Okay, then.

- I'm not going to do it.
- Alexander.

You just said it was up to me.

I don't wanna be a warrior.

PICARD:
Space, the final frontier.

These are the voyages
ofthe starship Enterprise.

Its continuing mission:
to explore strange new worlds,

to seek out new life
and new civilizations,

to boldly go where no one
has gone before.

We won't rendezvous
with the Kearsarge for four days.

Will we be holding position here
until it arrives?

Yes, and as it would seem
that we're in for a relatively quiet time,

I shall use this opportunity
to visit the Hatarian system.

There are some ancient ruins
that are just being excavated.

The delay will also make it possible
for stellar dynamics

to complete their study
of the Vodrey Nebula.

I'll let them know they can have
more access to the lateral sensor grid.

We could use this time to recalibrate
the weapons targeting system.

Mr. Worf?

Yes, l will begin the procedure
immediately.

Very good. Dismissed.

Lieutenant.

Could I have a word with you
for a moment?

I noticed several times
during the briefing

that you appeared
to be a bit distracted.

I apologize.

In the future, I will make sure
my personal affairs

do not interfere with my duties.

Is everything all right?

I am having problems
with Alexander.

He has made it clear
he does not wish to participate

in the first Rite of Ascension.

Oh, I see.

I tried to tell him

that it is an important part
of a young Klingon's life,

but he does not understand.

But he's had so little opportunity
to spend time with Klingons.

You know, the festival of Kot'baval
is tomorrow.

If he could take part in that,

I'm sure he would
more fully appreciate

what a rich cultural heritage
he comes from.

There is a Klingon outpost
on Maranga IV.

I'm sure they'll be celebrating
the festival.

Yes.

But the outpost is on the other side
of the Vodrey Nebula.

It would take three days by shuttle
to get there.

The Enterprise could be there
and back in time for the rendezvous.

Captain, l could not ask you--

Mr. Worf, Stellar Dynamics
would like nothing better

than a trip around the nebula.

Thank you, sir.

[SHOUTING

[SINGlNG lN KLINGON]

[CROWD CHEERING]

Who's that?

It is the tyrant, Molor.

He was so strong,
no one could stand against him.

[SINGlNG lN KLINGON]

What's he saying?

He is asking if anyone else
will have the courage

to stand up to Molor.

[ALEXANDER YELLING]

[BOTH GRUNTlNG]

[CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]

[SPEAKS lN KLINGON]

You wounded me.

You fought well.

What happens now?

There is only one man
who can stand against Molor.

[SINGlNG lN KLINGON]

It's Kahless.

Kahless would rather die
than live under Molor's tyranny.

[CONTINUES SINGlNG]

[MEN LAUGHlNG lN DlSTANCE]

Father.

- Where have you been?
- We were watching the fire dancers.

- We?
- K'Nor and Bar'el.

They live here on the outpost.
I need some money.

What for?

Well, a man over there says
he has Molor's head in a box.

The real Molor.

That is impossible.
The real Molor died centuries ago.

I know. It's mummified.

He offered to show us
for 50 darseks.

He is trying to take your money.

Please, Father, he's waiting.

No, it is too late.
We should go home.

- But I--
- Alexander, that is enough.

Come, it is time to go.

ALEXANDER:
I have to say goodbye to my friends.

You can see your friends again
tomorrow.

We're coming back?

If you want to.

[YELLS IN KLlNGON]

Run, Alexander.

[ALL GRUNTING]

[YELLING IN KLINGON]

[SPEAKING IN KLINGON]

You were too much for them.

I have seen you before.
Who are you?

A friend.

You are K'mtar.

Your brother sent me here
to protect you.

- He is gin'tak to the house of Mogh.
- Gin'tak?

An adviser so trusted
he has become part of the family.

Do you have any idea
who's behind the attack?

It is a Klingon matter.
It is not your concern.

One of my officers
was almost killed.

That makes it my concern.

Recently, rumors began to circulate
on the homeworld

that an assassination attempt
was going to be made

on the family of Mogh.

Kurn sent me here to make sure
nothing happened to Worf.

Why didn't you warn him
before the attack was made?

I tried to contact him over subspace.

I was told he was not aboard.

I decided to beam directly
to the surface.

And why didn't you let us know
about it?

Forgive me for being blunt,
commander,

but when it comes
to protecting the house

to which I have pledged my life,

I trust no one.

I have full confidence in the officers
with whom I serve.

One of the attackers
dropped this dagger.

The design represents
the house of Duras.

We have other evidence
that indicate the Duras sisters,

Lursa and B'Etor,
were behind the attack.

What do you think they were after?

Kurn's seat on the council,
of course.

We cannot allow their attack
on our house to go unanswered.

First, we must find them.

At one point
they were on Deep Space Nine,

trying to sell bilitrium explosives.

That was months ago.

No one knows
where they went from there.

Maybe we can find them.

We've arranged for quarters
on the ship, if you'd like to stay.

I would.

Worf and l have much to discuss.

I will send Kurn a message
telling him what happened,

but he will not receive it for days.

He has gone to the Hitora colony--

Why did you treat Commander Riker
so disrespectfully?

You were rude.

I may have been rude
by human standards.

I meant no disrespect.

What is the matter, Worf?

Have you been living so long
among humans

that you have forgotten
how Klingons behave?

I have not forgotten.

I am merely stating that their ways
are different than ours.

I trust you have made your son
aware of that fact as well.

Yes, of course I have.

Good.

Because someday,
Alexander may be called upon

to lead the house of Mogh.

Kurn has no male heir.

He wants to make sure that Alexander
is preparing himself.

Does my brother doubt my ability
to raise my son as a Klingon?

No, but you are alone
among humans.

It cannot be easy to keep our ways.

No, it has not been easy.

How are his fighting skills?

Can he handle a bat'Ieth?

He is learning.

He could be better.

He must.

He is nearing the age of ascension.

Actually, Alexander
has not yet committed himself

to undergoing the rite.

What?

I have tried to explain to him
how important it is,

but he will not listen to me.

Perhaps, together, you and I,

we can find a way to spark
the boy's interest in his heritage.

I would be grateful
for any help you could offer.

Tomorrow, then.

Tomorrow.

May I say good night to the boy?

Yes, of course.

Is this your mother?

Yeah, she died when I was little.

You miss her a great deal,
don't you?

It must be hard for you,

being the only Klingon your age
aboard this ship.

Sometimes.

Have you ever been
to the homeworld?

- No.
- I think you would like it there.

At your uncle's house,
there is a lake you can swim in

that is so clear you can see
all the way to the bottom.

ALEXANDER:
Really?

You have cousins there.
They want to meet you.

- I don't know.
- I understand.

You're afraid.

You don't know
whether the homeworld is safe.

Yeah.

And what happened today
on the planet is frightening.

You're still troubled.

I thought they were gonna kill
my father.

You must have wanted to help us
fight them off.

I didn't know what to do.

Someday, if you work hard,

you will become a warrior,
a Klingon warrior.

And you will always feel safe,

because you will know
how to defend yourself.

And I'll tell you something else.

If anyone ever tries
to hurt your father again,

you will be able to fight at his side and
make sure nothing happens to him.

What do you think of that?

Good night, Alexander.

Dream well.

Good night, K'mtar.

RlKER:
Any luck?

Starfleet records contain no mention
of the Duras sisters

after their departure
from Deep Space Nine.

Did I not tell you as much?

Have you been able to contact
Deep Space Nine?

I am being patched through
right now, sir.

On-screen.

Quark, I see you remember me.

How could l forget the only man
ever to win triple-down Dabo

at one of my tables?

And how can l forget you didn't have
enough latinum to cover my winnings?

I thought I explained that my brother
misplaced the key to the safe.

Besides, those vouchers l gave you
were every bit as good as latinum.

You can spend latinum
almost anywhere.

Those vouchers
are only good at your bar.

ls that what this is about?

You're on your way and you're calling
to reserve a holosuite program?

Actually, I was hoping you could
help me with something else.

What would that be?

I'm looking
for some Klingon friends of mine.

The Duras sisters, Lursa and B'Etor.

Yes, Lursa and B'Etor.

Big talk, small tips.

Do you know
where I can find them?

Well, I did hear a rumor, actually.

What kind of rumor?

Oh, I don't know,
l'm sure it was told me in confidence.

And how much
would your confidence cost?

How many vouchers
do you have again?

I have enough
for 12 bars of latinum.

I'd be glad to return them.

I believe the rumor

was that the sisters were trying to buy
some secondhand mining equipment.

What for?

They learned of a magnesite deposit
on the Kalla system.

It belongs to the Pakleds,

but those fools
don't even know it's there.

Your friends are trying to get at it.

All right.

I'll send those vouchers to you.

Oh, don't bother.

I voided them
while we've been talking.

So long, Quark.

How long would it take us
to get to Kalla system?

Approximately 1 6 hours, sir.

Could not he have been lying?

Why would he?

I'd just be knocking on his door again
in a few days.

And I wouldn't be
in as good a mood.

Mm-hm.

Congratulations, commander.

I did not think it would be possible
to find the sisters.

- Take us out of orbit.
CREWMAN: Aye, sir.

K'MTAR: I took the liberty of creating
a holodeck program.

WORF: What kind of program?
- I'll show you.

Computer,
run program K'mtar Alpha-1 .

COMPUTER:
Program initiated. Enter when ready.

Why did you wanna re-create this?

You said you wished you had
been able to help your father fight,

but you did not know how.

You have probably fought that battle
over and over again in your mind.

Yes.

Let's see what happens now.

Computer,
give me two Klingon warriors.

How can I fight someone that big?

Size is not the most important thing.

Skill, cunning, powers of observation
are the most important weapons.

[YELLING IN KLINGON]

Freeze program.

Look what this ko'taI is doing. Hm?

You see his leg?

That will give you a clue
as to what his next move will be.

All his weight is on his right foot.

Yes, he is going to have to shift it
to regain his balance.

Stand ready.

Computer, resume program.

[BOTH GRUNTlNG]

[YELLING IN KLINGON]

K'MTAR:
Finish him.

[WEAPON CLATTERS

- Aah!
K'MTAR: Freeze program.

You should have killed him
when you had the chance.

Why did you not?

- I don't know.
- Look at him.

He did not care
that you showed him mercy.

He was going to kill you.

K'mtar, that is enough.

If this was real,
he'd be dead by now.

Alexander.

- We are approaching Kalla III.
RlKER: Set a standard orbit.

Any evidence
of a mining expedition?

A shaft has been cut
through the outer crust.

There is evidence of machinery,
but it does not appear to be in use.

- Life signs?
- It is difficult to say.

The magnesite is interfering
with bio-readings.

Assemble an away team.

- Who are you?
- Gorta.

I'm Gorta.

WORF:
What are you doing on this planet?

I crashed here.

Then you are denying involvement
in illegal mining activities?

GORTA:
Mining?

So that's what all this equipment
is here for.

We are looking
for two Klingon women, sisters.

Lursa, B'Etor?
Do you know where they are?

Actually,
we were hoping that you did.

Oh, maybe l do.

Would you be willing to share
your information with us?

My personal code of conduct
prohibits sharing.

But l'd consider a trade.

Does your personal code
of conduct tell you

that when you're stranded
on a planet with no way off,

you shouldn't try to cut deals?

You have a point.

We could certainly provide passage
off this planet

in exchange for information.

Could you perhaps fail
to tell the Pakleds

that we were mining their ore?

Don't push your luck.

But if you get us to the Duras sisters,
I'll see what I can do.

Oh...

The Duras sisters. Ah.

They are magnificent, aren't they?

Where are they now?

Selling the ore, I imagine.

They took everything.

The ore, the ship.

And where have they gone?

We were going to sell the ore
to a Yridian trader.

We were supposed to meet him
in the Ufandi system.

Gather your belongings.
It is time to leave.

Like l said, they took everything. Hm.

Worf, I am sorry
about what happened.

I should not have gotten so angry.

It's just that I'm worried
about Alexander.

As am l.

Kurn told me that his mother
actively discouraged him

exploring his Klingon heritage.

When he first came to live with me,
he knew nothing of our ways.

He often reminds me of the things
his mother said to him.

And I try not to disregard
her wishes.

I want the boy to honor his mother.

Someday, I'm sure,

he will appreciate you and be grateful
for all that you have done for him.

But still,
compared to other boys his age,

his fighting skills are years behind.

Yes, l know.

He does not put in the time it takes
to learn the skills.

I thought that you might consider

sending him
to the training academy at Ogat.

Your brother is an influential man.

I'm sure he could see to it
that Alexander was admitted.

Ogat?

I'm only thinking
of what is best for the boy.

There, he would learn our ways.

He would live like a Klingon.

I would like him to learn our ways.

No, this is his home.

Oh. can you expect him
to lead our family

when all he knows is life
aboard a Federation starship?

He is my son. He belongs with me.

The boy is more human
than Klingon.

If he stays here,
he will never be a warrior.

He will never be able
to defend our family against--

Enough. Enough!

- The decision is mine.
- Not necessarily.

I would be well within my rights
to invoke ya'nora kor.

You would question my fitness
to raise my own son?

For the good of our house,
yes, Worf.

I beg of you,
please stop thinking of yourself.

It is Alexander
we should be considering.

Look into your heart
and do what is best for him.

Kahless was determined
to teach his brother a lesson

because he had told a lie.

But Morath refused to fight him,
and instead ran away.

Kahless pursued him
across the valleys,

over the mountains
and down to the edge of the sea.

And there at the shore,
they fought for 12--

Twelve days, 1 2 nights, I know.

I've heard this story before.

Mm. Alexander, it is important
to tell these stories,

even though we already know them.

Well, why was Kahless so mad
about the lie his brother told?

It made him look like a coward.

If Kahless would have
just explained what happened,

maybe they wouldn't have had
to fight about it.

You're missing the point.

Why was it so wrong
for Morath to run away?

Maybe he didn't wanna fight
his brother

because he didn't
wanna have to kill him.

He ran because he was a coward.

- But how do you know that--?
- No, no, no, no more questions.

These are our stories.

It is important for a warrior to learn
how to interpret them properly.

I'm trying to--

No, your head is filled
with foolish human notions

about how things are.

You are Klingon.

It is time you began to act like one.

I am part human too.

Listen to me, Alexander.

When a human looks at you,
he does not see himself.

He sees a Klingon.

It doesn't matter what I look like.

It does.

You are different than everyone else
aboard this ship.

- That's not true.
- It is.

The only way that you will ever feel
as if you truly belong

is to leave here
and go and live with your own kind.

I know a Klingon school
you could go to.

Oh, you would be welcome there.

They would teach you to be a warrior,
prepare you for the Rite of Ascension.

I don't know if I wanna do that.

After you were there for a while,

you would find that you wouldn't
want to do anything else.

I don't wanna leave the Enterprise.

Alexander, you must.

Everything depends upon it.

I thought you were different.

I thought you understood me.

But you don't.

You're just like my father.

All you care about
is me becoming a warrior.

Just leave me alone.

RlKER:
First officer's log, stardate 47779.4.

We've entered the Ufandi system,
where we believe the Duras sisters

might have come to sell the ore
they mined on Kalla IlI.

I am detecting a vessel
holding position near the third planet.

- It is a Yridian freighter.
- Put it on-screen.

Scan for magnesite in its hold.

[COMPUTER BEEPING

The resonance signature indicates
that there is magnesite ore present.

Then we're too late.
The sisters have already been here.

Somehow I doubt the Yridians
are gonna be forthcoming

about where they might have gone.

DATA:
Sir.

Readings indicate that there are only
500 kilograms of ore

in the Yridian hold.

There should be
over 1 0,000 kilograms.

That's odd. Hail them.

[COMPUTER BEEPING

I'm Commander William Riker

from the Federation
starship Enterprise.

YOG [OVER MONITOR]:
I am Yog.

Why are we speaking?

Our sensors indicate
that you're carrying magnesite ore.

Magnesite, yes.

Where did you get it?

From a Corvallen.

For a good price.

Where is this Corvallen now?

I'm under orders
to acquire some magnesite.

Well, he's gone. Where?
Who is to know?

Would you be interested selling me
the ore that you're carrying?

No, heh, l have a buyer.

You haven't heard my offer.

Half a gram
of Anjoran bio-mimetic gel.

Hmm.

Done.

Once we verify the purity of your ore,
we'll beam over the gel.

You're up to something.

Have the Transporter Room
beam the ore to these coordinates.

Sir, that would place the ore
directly off the ship's starboard bow.

I know.

Transport complete.

RlKER: Lock the phasers
on the ore and fire.

Firing.

A Klingon bird-of-prey.

Put a tractor beam on it.

How did you know?

The Yridians had only part
of the shipment in their hold.

I realized that we had arrived

before they had completed
the transfer.

The Klingon ship is hailing us.

On-screen.

Release our vessel at once.

I don't think so.

We've done nothing wrong.

We were engaging
in a simple business transaction.

We know you're dealing
in stolen ore.

But l wanna talk about
the assassination attempt

on Lieutenant Worf.

What assassination attempt?

This is the first I've heard of it.

Too bad it didn't succeed.

[BOTH LAUGH]

We have evidence
that you're behind it.

That is outrageous.

What is this evidence?

Beam over. We'll show you.

We'll be there shortly.

This was dropped
by one of the assassins.

It bears the crest of your house.

[SPEAKS lN KLINGON]

Someone must have given it
to the assassins to implicate us.

Why would someone do that?

In order to tarnish our good name.

You cannot tarnish a rusted blade.

[YELLING IN KLINGON]

RlKER:
Mr. Worf.

You said there was other evidence
they were involved.

Yes, on the homeworld.

We'll set a course.
I want this thing cleared up.

I will send a message to Kurn.

He may wish to return
to the homeworld as well.

[B'ETOR SPEAKS lN KLlNGON]

Impossible.

What is it?

These markings represent
the members of our house.

This symbol represents our father,
myself, my sister,

and this represents her son.

I was not aware you had a son.

I do not.

But l am with child.

She found out only a few days ago
and told no one but me.

How can this marking be here?

Where did this come from?

I will speak with K'mtar.

Father, stop, I am your son.

I am Alexander.

What are you saying?

I am your son, Alexander.

I have come to this time
from 40 years in the future.

[WORF SPEAKS lN KLINGON]

Tell me the truth or I will kill you.

Look at me.

When we first met,
you said l looked familiar.

I could have seen you
on the homeworld.

No, look closely.

I am your son.

If you are Alexander,

you will remember your mother's
last words before she died.

I was 3 years old.

She was dying when we found her.

She barely managed
to whisper my name,

and then she took my hand
and placed it in yours.

And she died.

And then you howled in rage

and said, "Look upon her,
look upon death

and always remember."

And I always have.

[COUGHING]

WORF:
How have you done this?

Come to this time?

I met a man in the Cambra system.

He gave me a chance
to change the past.

He had the ability to send me here
to this time.

And you came here in order
to end your own life?

I was hoping
that I would not have to.

That I could change things,
that I could change myself.

But l could not.

And now everything
is going to turn out like it did before.

I cannot let that happen.

But why? What is going to happen
that is so terrible?

You will be killed

because I was too naive, too weak,
to be able to protect you.

I do not believe that.

I was there.

I saw you murdered. I was to blame.

You must not blame yourself.

You don't understand.

I did not become a warrior.

I was a diplomat, a peacemaker.

When it came my time
to lead our family,

I thought
that I could single-handedly

end the fighting
between the great houses.

I publicly announced

that the house of Mogh
would be the first to end the feuding,

that there would be
no more retribution,

no more revenge.

You tried to warn me.

You tried to tell me
that I should not show weakness,

but I thought
you were a foolish old man.

I told you you were a relic
from an earlier time

and that a new era of peace
was at hand.

But you were right.

My enemies saw my weakness
and moved against me.

And unless I stop it right now,
that boy will see his father killed

on the floor
of the Great Council Chamber.

Ah. That is why you wanted
to take Alexander away,

to turn him into a warrior.

I staged the assassination attempt

to try and frighten him,
to make him realize

that he must follow
the ways of the warrior.

If I had listened to you,

if I had become the warrior
that you had wanted me to be,

you would have not died in my arms.

No.

Who knows what the future will be
now that you have disrupted time?

I may die tomorrow
or I may outlive you.

But when I die,
I would like an honorable death.

And the only way that is possible

is for you to accept yourself
as you are.

And stay true to what you believe.

The cause of peace is a just cause.

The struggle must continue.

It is a futile struggle.

I cannot change things.

You have already changed things
more than you realize.

The boy I was has not changed.

But l have.

You have given me a glimpse
into my son's future.

And I know now
that he has his own destiny.

And I believe it will be a great one.

I love you, Father.

And I you, Alexander.

[GRUNTING]

I've been waiting.

Where is K'mtar?

He had to leave.

He was called away.

He never said goodbye.

He asked me
to say goodbye for him.

He also wanted me to tell you,
no matter what happens,

no matter what you decide to do
