Actually, from what I understand, this wasn't from the paq'batlh session; I believe it was given as some sort of teaser for Klingon Monopoly (which I don't think we were aware of at the time, apart from MO and vavoy).

ghunchu'wI' discusses {wel} which was introduced in the opera {'u'}:

  When someone has earned a reward but the prize is not yet
  available to be given, the person in charge of presenting it
  can say {qawel} "I owe you}. It is probably also appropriate
  when you have convinced someone to give you some service or
  product with the understanding that you will pay for it later.
