Notes
- Geordi & Troi do not appear in this episode. Was the first episode LeVar Burton did not appear in.
- John Putch appears as a Benzite here. He last appeared as a different one in the “Coming of Age” episode. Apparently this happened as they already had the costume and head gear custom made for him. :)
- The Klingon food was redressed real food. The Gagh was long noodles colored brown. The Rogek blood pie was turnips in pumpkin pies, died red. The other options were various legit animal parts as food.
- The actor who plays Klag here (Brian Thompson) also appears in a few other places in Star Trek, but I actually spotted him naturally in “Star Trek Generations” as one of the Klingon bridge officers (who is not named). He was also in a couple of DS9 episodes and one ENT episode.

There's an officer exchange program where Riker serves as the first officer on a Klingon vessel. There's QUITE a few fun interactions here, and some good drama that comes

#StarTrekMarathon Star Trek TNG Ep 34 - A Matter of Honor - 6 Feb 1989 2/2 from the Klingon ship having a technical fault. The lunch room scene with Klingons is great. There's a B-plot with a Benzite that is somewhat painful. It does tie into the larger plot, tho. Frakes is quite spectacular here.
