Aw nuts.
I think I will have to load up 'Squire' and 'Tribbles' later today in tribute.

"How did you get in here?"
"I am Koloth."
"That doesn't answer my question."
"Yes, it does."

Of the original Trek Klingons there's now only Michael Ansara left. Curiously, once he's dead too the three will have died from youngest to oldest (John Colicos *1928, William Campbell *1926 and Michael Ansara *1922. Life and its cruel ironies.

To nitpick, he only appeared in one DS9 episode 'Blood Oath', 'Trials & Tribble-ations' did not feature him in any archive footage.

What are the charges against him?
Charges? No charges. He's today's guest of honor.
You must be a very brave man to attempt humor at the expense of a Klingon Dahar Master.
