I'm a bit surpised at the reactions this episode is getting. I've always found plenty of good things - location shots, Vasquez rocks, Scotty playing cat and mouse with the Klingons, some nice banter among the crew, and DeForest Kelley is fantastic (as usual). On the downside, the Klingon ship was a horrible blob of light, and the transitions from the studio to Vasquez rocks - with both supposed to represent Capella - were pretty jarring.
Oh and, yes, I agree, Bob the Klingon can't hold a candle to Kor, Kang et al.
Funny you quoted this, I was just about to as well - because that might be what we hear, but it sure isn't what Bob's lips were saying. Either Bob is a terrible lip sync, or they were removing a reference to something that didn't make the final cut - 'Kligat' or 'Makeen' maybe?

I'm a fan of this episode, even though it has plenty of faults. Because he has some good lines, I'm even a fan of Bob the Discount Klingon (a.k.a. Kras). My favorite line of his [ref]:
KRAS: The next man who raises a weapon destroys all of you. You and your primitive knives and your weapons, I'll teach you what killing really means.
