Talk:Rules of Engagement (Star Trek: Deep Space Nine)

The comment about Klingons not caring about intentions should be removed. The hearing is being conducted according to Federation law (as Worf is a Federation citizen and Starfleet officer) and Federation law certainly does care about intent as well as action. The Klingon advocate is simply working within the necessary confines of the Federation legal system. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 161.184.100.228 (talk) 07:24, 24 March 2012 (UTC)

4th wall, documentary-style
It’s most likely noteworthy to mention that this episodes makes use of unusual dramatic effects.

Interviewees are breaking the fourth wall and speaking directly into the camera, as if being interviewed in a documentary.

For Star Trek, this is an extremely rare means of dramaturgy, which makes this episode outstanding from this viewpoint. -- WA1TF0R䷟ 18:48, 29 November 2023 (UTC)
