CHEKOV: &#39;uQ luSopmeH nughoSbogh ghot&#39;e&#39; yIloy.</p>
<p>[1] - Even though {qatlho&#39;} is of course out of place for a Klingon, Gorkon is deferring to Federation convention here.<br>
[2] - We don&#39;t have a word for &quot;evening&quot;.  Also, they&#39;re in space, and they came from different planets, so I don&#39;t even know what &quot;evening&quot; could possibly even refer to.<br>
[3] - Again, Gorkon is being ostentatiously polite here.  Maybe {-neS} is a bit much?  He is the Chancellor after all.<br>
[4] - A Klingon would just say {pItlh!} here, instead of all this wordiness.</p>
<p>[Enterprise-A bridge]<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; VOICE (OC): Captain on the bridge.<br>
&gt; CHEKOV: Shall we raise our shields, Captain?<br>
&gt; KIRK: I&#39;ve never been this close.<br>
&gt; SPOCK: The Chancellor is undoubtedly awaiting our signal.<br>
&gt; KIRK: Uhura, hailing frequencies.<br>
&gt; UHURA: Aye sir.<br>
&gt; KIRK: Right standard rudder, bring us alongside.<br>
&gt; VALERIS: Right standard rudder, Z plus five degrees.<br>
&gt; UHURA: Channel is open, Captain.<br>
&gt; KIRK: This is the Starship Enterprise, Captain James T. Kirk commanding.<br>
&gt; GORKON (on viewscreen): This is Kronos One. I am Chancellor Gorkon.<br>
&gt; KIRK: Chancellor. We&#39;ve been ordered to escort you through Federation<br>
&gt; space to your meeting on Earth.<br>
&gt; GORKON (on viewscreen): Thank you, Captain.<br>
&gt; KIRK: Would you and your party care to dine this evening aboard the<br>
&gt; Enterprise with my officers as guests of the United Federation of<br>
&gt; Planets?<br>
&gt; GORKON (on viewscreen): We would be delighted to accept your gracious<br>
&gt; invitation.<br>
&gt; KIRK: We&#39;ll make arrangements to have you beamed aboard at nineteen<br>
&gt; thirty hours.<br>
&gt; GORKON (on viewscreen): I shall look forward to that.<br>
&gt; KIRK: I hope you&#39;re happy.<br>
&gt; VALERIS: Captain, there is a supply of Romulan ale aboard. It might<br>
&gt; make the evening pass more ...smoothly?<br>
&gt; KIRK: Officer thinking, Lieutenant.<br>
&gt; CHEKOV: Guess who is coming to dinner?</p>
