On this super-sized episode of "Enterprise Incidents," we're excited to feature an exclusive interview with actress Susan Howard, the very first woman to play a Klingon on "Star Trek." We're also honored to be joined for our deep dive of the 3rd Season classic "Day of the Dove" by Laurie Ulster, Senior Editor at TrekMovie.com.
After being lured to the planet Beta XII-A by imaginary distress calls, the Enterprise crew and the Klingons are forced into direct conflict by a powerful alien force that draws its strength from violence and hatred. That conflict escalates when the Klingons commandeer the Enterprise, which is sent spiraling out of control towards the edge of the galaxy. Unless Captain Kirk can find a way to reason with the Klingon Commander Kang, overcome the influence of the alien force and regain control of the Enterprise, both crews will be condemned to fight each other in futile bloody violence for all eternity. If there ever was an episode of Season 3 that truly has it all, it's "Day of the Dove." It's exciting, action-packed and briskly-paced, and it features a timely call for peace that resonates just as strongly now as it did back in 1968. It also features a magnificent, scene-stealing performance from Michael Ansara as Kang, who set a new standard for the way the Klingons would be portrayed on every other "Star Trek" series that was yet to come.
