Kor's desire to die a warrior's death leads to Worf assigning the ageing Klingon to Martok's ship. But can the famed Daha Master complete one last mission?
This episode tries to say something about the idea of hero worship, and people not being able to live up to their past, a concept Trek has dealt with before. Disappointingly, this story doesn't really add anything new to what has gone before; it just seems like it was written to give Kor a final send-off before the series ended. Okay, maybe needed to be done, but it didn't have to be.
The only real plus in the episode is that the subplot featuring Ezri Dax and her burgeoning relationships with the people she already knows well is quite fun and interesting. Usually, Klingon stories tend to be just a bunch of Klingons on a ship and not much else, so this makes a change. Sadly there's still too much shouting, singing and generally being Klingon, and it gets on your wick after a while.
