SKI: A few days pass and Hota'ro' reports apparently drunk for duty, 
but the captain finds the real cause.

[94] Admit it, you thought the burned out tujmoHwI' was just terrible 
Klingon engineering, and not a plot point.  Although most of the plot 
so far has been driven by terrible Klingon engineering. See, Klingon 
nerds rarely survive high school.
