Thanks, Trinopus. 
High praise from a Klingon, mistaken for an insult.
Not having bothered to read the whole thread, I want to ask if anybody else thought it was implausible that Scotty could just beam stuff aboard a Klingon military ship without a problem. Doesn’t that seem like a gaping hole in the ship’s security?
What keeps somebody from beaming a bomb inside a ship? Or suppose somebody beaming a bunch of microbes over instead of a bunch of tribbles? Next thing you know, everyone on the ship is infected with the Rigellian Plague.
Scotty was just that good. Never under estimate an inebriated Scotsman.
They might have been relying too much on the sanctity of truce at an open port.
I’ve seen visiting Soviet warships (way back in the day) tied up next to U.S. warships, and, in theory, someone could throw a bottle full of virus-laden goop from one to the other. Or a grenade. Or 1,771,561 Tribbles.
I think a nice Organian ought to pay a little visit to Scotty…
The Organians consider involving themselves in other people’s affairs to be disgusting.
But they are the enforcers of the treaty that is alluded to in the episode.
I liked how in “Trials and Tribble-ations” (the DS9 episode), Dax was geeking out about being back in the 23rd century the whole time. She was practically engaging in foreplay with her tricorder, and tried a very transparent excuse to get aboard the space station so she could see her old friend Koloth.
He matched the target ship’s own scanner frequencies, and the transporter signals were passed through the shields as a “friendly” return signal.
I’m sure some polarity reversals was required, somehow.
That’s how O’Brian learned the trick. He remembered it from an engineering textbook, and used the stunt to transport the Defiant people onto the Enterprise and K-7 while the sensors were in cycle.
