Is there any GOOD Klingon on video?

My aunt, who teaches linguistics at George Mason University in Virginia,
has begun using Klingon in phonetics exercises. She writes:  "Somehow, to
them, Klingon is inherently more interesting, attention-grabbing than,
say, Quechua." 
She sent me her class handouts for comments and corrections -- I'm taking
care of that -- but she adds another question which, with as little tube
time as I have, I'm not qualified to answer (though I suspect the answer
is "There ain't no such beast!"): 
  On the next round, I'd like them to listen to more Klingon
  -- the video I had was too short. Can you recommend a 
  TV episode or movie segment in which there is a lot of 
  *good* Klingon spoken? If it was one that is *for sale*, 
  that would be great, 'cause then I can show it in my class 
  each semester and put it on reserve. (Or, if you could 
  send me a good copy of a clip, that would be second best.)
Can anyone help me with this?
