Frasier, the TV show.
Frasier wanted to speak in Hebrew for his son's bar mitzvah. A co-worker knew Hebrew and agreed to
help if Frasier would do a favor of going to a ST convention and getting an autograph because the
co-worker wasn't able to get there himself. Frasier didn't make it to the convention; so to get
even, the co-worker, who also knew Klingon, taught Frasier his bar mitzvah speech in Klingon instead
of Hebrew. And then it turns out that one of the kids in the audience also knew Klingon.
I have the audio on my site.
