"Sins of the Father" Line-by-Line

DURAS: For many turns, the truth about Khitomer has lain dormant. Unknown. Now the truth has been revealed. The traitor Mogh sent the defence access codes to the Romulan patrol ships, allowing them to destroy the outpost. Thousands died on Khitomer. My father died on Khitomer. Their deaths must be avenged. Your father was a traitor. By posing this challenge, you are a traitor.

(Duras tears off Worf's baldric)

DURAS: You will not wear the emblems of our people. You are a fool and your challenge can only result in a fool's death.
 
K'mpec: The council stands in recess. We will return for the Mek'ba, when the evidence will be presented. Q'apla'!
 
Picard, Riker and Troi enter the Bridge

Picard: Mister Data, find out everything you can about the destruction of the Khitomer Outpost. Cross reference with Romulan Tactics and Strategic Information on the region, and request access to the Klingon Central Information Net. Computer: presentation overview of Klingon Custom and Law Pertaining to familial accountability.
 
(finishing)
K'MPEC: You should not have brought the challenge... there was no risk to you... what does it matter... ?

WORF: I am Klingon...
 
K'mpec: Of that I have no question. But your life in the Federation would not have been effected by this judgment.
 
K'mpec: ...Is dead. He died long ago. I knew your father, served with him. This is not how I wanted to remember him. We must let the past be and protect what we have now. If you leave before the Mek'ba, no shame will come on you. Return to your ship. Go back to your life. The Challenge will be forgotten.
 
K'mpec: I will not be questioned by you. leave, now, or you too will be condemned as a Traitor.
 
Riker: Doctor, I want you to look over the medical records from all the rescue vessels that responded to the Khitomer Massacre. See if there's any information on the aftermath that might help us.
