I love it when the Trek sequels refer back to the Original Series. In Blood Oath we get to check in with three Klingons from the classic era: Kor, Koloth and Kang. (They are all featured prominently in the fantastic “Blood Will Tell” graphic novel as well.) These were Kirk’s nemeses and now they are on DS9 in this new, post-treaty Universe. They are old, they want to die gloriously, and they have a bone to pick with a certain “albino” dude out there. Turns out, so does Curzon Dax – someone who was quite chummy with this Klingon triumvirate – and Jadzia lives up to Curzon’s oath.
I love most Klingon-heavy episodes, and I also like the stuff that deals with the prior Daxes. I’ve been critical of Terry Farrell and her portrayal of Jadzia, but she shows a little edge in this one. Good stuff all around.
