5 most badass worf moments in star trek: the next generation (& 5 of his funniest).

Star Trek: The Next Generation's Klingon security officer Worf is one of the franchise's baddasses. He's also one of their funniest characters.

It takes a lot of stones to become the first Klingon in Starfleet, but that's what made Worf so well suited for the job. This orphaned Klingon might have been raised by human parents, but he never lost his connection to his own heritage. This made him both a powerful warrior and an honorable Starfleet officer.

Throughout his career, Worf has shown us that he's a terrific badass, but he's also been the victim of a few jokes at his own expense. Today we're counting down the 5 most badass Worf moments of Star Trek: The Next Generation, and 5 of his funniest!

BADASS: PARTICIPATED IN THE AGE OF ASCENSION RITE

Worf's alienation from his own people to serve in Starfleet meant that he was denied many of the rituals and traditions that came with being a Klingon. Wesley Crusher picked up on this in the season 2 episode " The Icarus Factor ," and decided to do something about it.

On the 10th anniversary of Worf's Age of Ascension (when a Klingon officially becomes a warrior), Wesley recreated the ritual on the Holodeck and invited Geordi LaForge, Commander Data, Miles O'Brien and Dr. Pulaski to bear witness. The ritual was especially difficult for Worf, given that his comrades weren't Klingons, forcing him to divulge his greatest feelings while under extreme pain at the hands of simulated Klingons wielding painstiks. It's a tradition that would probably kill a human being, but Worf soldiered through it, walking the gauntlet and completing a key Klingon ritual in the process.

BADASS: SMACKED A SEXUAL PREDATOR

The season 5 episode "Violations" was controversial due to its subject matter, tackling sexual violence. Several members of the crew fall victim to horrifying psychic attacks at the hands of an Ullian delegate, leaving each one in a mysterious coma. Only Counselor Troi recovers from the ordeal, which forces the attacker to use psychic manipulation to shift the blame onto his own father.

With the mystery apparently solved, Troi is confronted by her attacker once again in her quarters. His benevolent facade soon fades as he instigates another psychic attack on Troi, which she fights against. During a physical scuffle between the two, Worf enters with a security team and delivers a single, effortless palm strike that leaves Troi's attacker seeing stars! A fitting end for such a vile person!

BADASS: TOOK THE FALL FOR THE ENTIRE KLINGON EMPIRE

The relatively modest Worf soon found himself entangled in the snare of Klingon politics during the season 3 episode " Sins of the Father ." Worf's brother Kurn infiltrated the Enterprise under the guise of a Klingon/Federation exchange program in order to reach Worf and divulge his true identity, as well as the Klingon High Council's slander against their father, Mogh.

The two travel to the Klingon homeworld Qo'noS to confront the charges of treason against their late father in relation to the infamous Khitomer massacre which took place years before. He is shocked to discover just how deep the roots of corruption go within the High Council. Rather than clear his father's name at the cost of a Klingon civil war, he agrees to bear the burden of discommendation, becoming a reviled outcast for the sake of his own people. Talk about patriotism!

BADASS: TOOK REVENGE ON HIS FAMILY'S NEMESIS

It wasn't enough that Worf was forced to become a hated exile to protect his own people, while the son of the true traitor enjoyed a place on the High Council. When Worf's beloved mate K'Ehleyr began digging into what really happened on Qo'noS, she discovered the truth and confronted the traitor's son Duras. It was enough for him to attack and murder her to protect his status.

When Worf walked in on his dying mate, he was stricken with anguish and left to confront Duras. The two engaged in a fight to the death, with Worf gaining the upper hand and killing Duras outright. Though technically legal by Klingon law, it infuriated Picard, who placed a harsh reprimand on Worf's permanent record. Was it worth it?

BADASS: DID NOT PARTAKE IN THE RIGHT OF VENGEANCE

Worf's vengeance against Duras would have far-reaching implications for the Klingon Empire down the road. The season 4 finale,  " Redemption, " would see members of the Duras family openly challenge newly-elected High Council leader Gowron for control of the Empire. This put Worf in a very difficult position. With no recourse left to him, Worf resigned from Starfleet to join his brother Kurn in a civil war against those allied to the House of Duras.

The season 5 premiere episode,  " Redemption II, " would end with the Duras family in defeat, and the late traitor's son Toral offered to Worf, so he could exact Right of Vengeance. Rather than indulge in this part of Klingon law, Worf refused to take vengeance on a son for the crimes of his father. When reminded that it is the Klingon way, Worf boldly and honorably replies, "I know, but it is not my way."

FUNNIEST: DELIVERED A BABY AWKWARDLY

The season 5 episode "Disaster" features the Enterprise in a shambles after being struck violently by a quantum filament, causing massive damage and crew injuries. Many of the crew become trapped in various parts of the ship, including Ten Forward, where Worf assumes a leadership role.

However, he didn't bet on O'Brien's pregnant wife Keiko going into labor! His Starfleet medical training is no help when the moment arrives, forcing Worf to deal with an impatient Keiko while struggling to remain calm in one hilarious fish out of water situation!

FUNNIEST: WAS NOT A MERRY MAN

During the season 4 episode "Qpid," the crew of the Enterprise finds themselves trapped in a recreation of Earth's Sherwood Forest during the fictional age of Robin Hood. The dastardly Q is to blame for setting the entire thing up and assigning fictional Robin Hood and his Merry Men roles to the crew members, which they reject outright.

None more so than Worf, who is forced to don the colorful garb of Will Scarlett. Already annoyed at being roped into such a preposterous situation, Worf's patience reaches the breaking point when Geordi LaForge tries playing a tune on his lute, with side-splitting results!

FUNNIEST: FEARED ONLY ONE WOMAN

Worf's badassery was potent enough to have him go toe-to-toe with the Borg, the renegade android Lore, and the Romulans without blinking. However, despite all his courage and warrior's might, there was one person that struck fear into his heart!

That of course, was Deanna Troi's eccentric mother Lwaxana. The moment she entered the room, Worf's stress levels immediately spiked. She forced him to endure her poking around the ship's weapons systems, spoiling her already unruly son Alexander, and incorrectly referring to him as "Mr. Woof."

FUNNIEST: FOUND HIS INNER CHILD ON THE HOLODECK

Worf's stoic nature and brooding personality meant that duty and honor were constantly at the forefront of his thoughts. There wasn't much room left for fun, which is why his son Alexander was such an asset in his life, especially in the season 6 episode " A Fistful of Datas ."

After begrudgingly agreeing to join his son on the Holodeck in a Wild West simulation, Worf's annoyance quickly turned to enthusiasm. He discovered that playing the part of a Sheriff meant that he could impose his authority on fictional characters, and beat the living pixels out of them at the same time!

FUNNIEST: HE GAVE BAD DATING ADVICE

Worf was a brilliant tactician, a strong warrior, and a noble ally, but he wasn't known for his dating advice. Whether it's telling Wesley Crusher to recite Klingon love poetry while the female hurls heavy objects at him, or telling Commander Data to conquer the object of his affections, rather than pursue a regular relationship, Worf's not-so-sage insight would probably end up with a slap in the face, and possibly a restraining order!

The Origins of 11 Famous Star Trek Lines

By rick marshall | nov 6, 2015.

Few franchises have had the cultural impact of the various Star Trek television series and movies, and nowhere is that more evident than in the snippets of dialogue that have become a part of the American vernacular—and in some cases, found their way abroad, too. Here are 11 of the most notable Star Trek catchphrases, as well as a little more information about their origins.

1. "Live Long and Prosper"

The Vulcan greeting and the finger-separating hand gesture that accompanies it first appeared in the second season of Star Trek: The Original Series , during an episode titled “Amok Time.” Spock himself (actor Leonard Nimoy) has made no secret of the fact that the gesture and phrase were his idea, and that he based them on Orthodox Jewish blessings he remembered from his childhood. In the Jewish blessing, the position of the fingers forms the Hebrew letter “Shin,” which represents the name “Shaddai” (Almighty God). Nimoy put his own spin on the traditional gesture by holding up just one hand (instead of both) and changing up the verbal blessing slightly.

2. "Highly Illogical..."

While Spock never shied away from questioning the logic of those around him—usually Kirk—it wasn't until the second season that he took things up a notch and deemed the actions of the native inhabitants of planet Omega IV “highly illogical” in the episode titled “The Omega Glory.” Previously, it had always just been “illogical” or, in rare cases, “most illogical,” but it took a pair of natives attacking Kirk in a jail cell for Spock to pair his trademark raised-eyebrow reaction with the term “highly illogical.” The phrase would then be repeated in several more episodes, as well as the subsequent films and J.J. Abrams' reboot of the franchise.

Bonus: “Highly Illogical” was also the name of Leonard Nimoy's 1993 music album featuring several songs he recorded in the 1960s (including “The Ballad of Bilbo Baggins”) as well as a few new tunes.

3. "Beam Me Up, Scotty"

One of the most interesting aspects of this phrase—a request directed at Chief Engineer Montgomery “Scotty” Scott for transport back to the USS Enterprise—is that it was never actually uttered in any of the Star Trek television series or movies. More often than not, the command was akin to “Three to beam up” or more directly, “Beam them up,” with the closest approximation being “Beam us up, Scotty” in a few episodes of the Star Trek animated series. However, William Shatner did say this line while reading the audio version of his novel Star Trek: The Ashes of Eden .

4. "I'm A Doctor, Not A..."

Everyone knows that Dr. Leonard McCoy is not an engineer, a coal miner, or an escalator, but that never stopped him from reminding his fellow crew members. The first time DeForest Kelley uttered his famous catchphrase as we know it was in a first-season episode titled “The Devil in the Dark.” In that episode, McCoy saw fit to let Kirk know that he was a doctor, not a brick-layer. It's worth noting that an earlier episode, “The Corbomite Maneuver," had him asking Capt. Kirk, “What am I, a doctor or a moon-shuttle conductor?” but it wasn't until much later in the season that we got the full line that would later be heard in just about every subsequent series, as well as the Star Trek films. The line even made it into J.J. Abrams' 2009 reboot, with Karl Urban (as McCoy) exclaiming, “I'm a doctor, not a physicist!”

5. "Make It So"

Captain Jean-Luc Picard's signature line was a part of Star Trek: The Next Generation from the very start, with actor Patrick Stewart uttering what would become his character's most memorable catchphrase in the pilot episode, “Encounter at Farpoint.” The episode was written by Gene Roddenberry himself, so it's likely that he wrote the line for Picard, though the phrase has been in use for quite a while in military circles as a way to tell someone to proceed with a command.

6. "To Boldly Go Where No Man Has Gone Before..."

The infinitive-splitting opening narration for each episode of Star Trek: The Original Series (with the exception of the pilot episodes) was famously recited by William Shatner, but the actual origins of the line are uncertain at best. Some reports suggest that it was inspired by a 1958 White House press booklet promoting the space program, though some have speculated that it came from a statement made by explorer James Cook following an expedition to Newfoundland. Writer Samuel Peeples, who authored the pilot episode “Where No Man Has Gone Before,” is often credited with the decision to make the phrase such a significant part of the series. The line was eventually repeated—with a few minor tweaks—in each iteration of the series and films.

7. "Khaaannnn!"

Possibly the most meme-friendly line of dialogue ever to come out of the Star Trek universe, this scream of rage originated in (no surprise here) Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan . Left marooned on a dead planet by the evil villain Khan then taunted about his predicament, Kirk let loose with a primal roar—and the rest was viral-video history.

8. "I'm Givin' Her All She's Got, Captain!"

Much like “Beam me up, Scotty,” this famous catchphrase often associated with USS Enterprise Chief Engineer Montgomery “Scotty” Scott in Star Trek: The Original Series was never said in this exact form by actor James Doohan in the series or subsequent films. The closest approximation is a line in the second-season episode “The Changeling,” when Kirk asks Scotty to divert more power to the ship's shields. Scotty responds with, “Giving them all we got.” However, Doohan did utter every word of the famous line as part of a cameo in 1993's Loaded Weapon , in which he turns up as a panicky police officer trying to fix a coffee machine. Similarly, Simon Pegg used the same line “I'm givin' her all she's got, Captain!” in 2009's Star Trek reboot, in which he plays a young Montgomery Scott.

9. "Nuclear Wessels"

Russian crew member Pavel Andreievich Chekov's inability to pronounce the letter “V” became a recurring joke after the character was introduced in the second season of Star Trek: The Original Series as the ship's navigator. While it made for some funny moments throughout the series and subsequent movies, one of the most memorable pronunciation gaffes occurred during Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home , when Chekov begins asking passers-by in 1980s San Francisco where he can find “nuclear wessels.” Even though Walter Koenig had been playing the character for almost 20 years before The Voyage Home hit theaters, the two-word line soon became indelibly connected with his portrayal of the character.

10. "Resistance Is Futile"

This famous line was first uttered by robotic aliens The Borg in the epic third-season finale of Star Trek: The Next Generation , titled “Best of Both Worlds, Part 1.” Not only did the 1990 episode offer up one of the greatest cliffhangers in television history, but it also coined a phrase that would live forever in the nightmares of fans—mainly because it was recycled for use in countless other series and films down the road.

11. "Set Phasers To Stun"

It was established early on in Star Trek: The Original Series that the phasers used by the crew of USS Enterprise had a “stun” setting (as mentioned in “The Man Trap” episode), and both Kirk and Spock often found themselves instructing their crewmates to use the non-lethal capabilities of their standard-issue weapons. However, it wasn't until the second season of Star Trek: The Animated Series that we first heard Kirk issue the command “Set phasers to stun.” The line eventually became an oft-repeated order in subsequent series, turning up in both Star Trek: Deep Space Nine and Star Trek: The Next Generation , as well as many of the movies (including 2009's reboot).
