 The Enterprise beams aboard an emissary from Starfleet Command. She informs them that a Klingon vessel - the T Ong - whose crew has been in cryogenic sleep for almost a century. When they awake they will still believe that the Klingon s are at war with the Federation and since they will be near some Federation outposts, which they would immediately attack. Unknown to the crew of the Enterprise Worf and K Ehleyr - a half-human, half-Klingon female - were once linked romantically. Picard asked them to come up with a plan to stop the Klingon ship, they argue and K Ehleyr storms out. K Ehleyr goes to the Holodeck and selects Worf s calisthenics program - which is a battle against deadly aliens. Worf joins her for the exercise. After winning the battle and the resulting intimacy, Worf asks her to take the Klingon oath of marriage, which traditionally follows intimacy, but she refuses. Then Enterprise approaches the T Ong. Worf dressed in full Klingon Captain s regalia and presents himself to the T Ong as the captain of the Enterprise. He convinces that the Klingons are now members of the Federation. As K Ehleyr prepares to take command of the Klingon vessel Worf and her reconcile their differences.
