Three Klingons are rescued by the Enterprise. They try to subvert Worf and take over the ship. We find out that when a Klingon warrior dies, his associates hold his eyes open until he's dead and then howl "as a warning." (Though, after this episode, we only see the custom once more.) I forgot one great exchange between Picard and the Klingon leader after one of the Klingons dies:
"But mostly, a true friend is a person you can always tell the truth to without worrying about it."
"Do you ever drop one?"
"No, no, no.
They are my worlds, and I protect them. I am a master of worlds, and they fly only as I wish."
"I'll bet you've never been to the colony of free spirits."
"What do they do there?"
"Whatever they want. Artists, philosophers, free-thinkers... .. people who don't quite fit other people's rules."
"Every moment requires a purpose."
"No, it doesn't."
"Every purpose requires a plan."
"He does this every day; usually while everybody's food gets cold."
"The higher, the fewer!"
"Well, that's a conversation-stopper if I ever heard one."
"To all the creatures within us!"
"All the creatures within us?"
"Of course. Every one of us has a thousand different kinds of tiny people inside us. Some of them want to get out and be wild; some want to be sad, or happy, or inventive or even go dancing. That's why we have different urges at different times."
"Are we ready for the entertainment?"
"Ready! Yes! Absolutely!"
"And all those different little people inside us? We must never be afraid to take them with us wherever we go. Who knows when we might need one of them to pop up and rescue us from ourselves."
"The great secret is not the variety of life; but the variety of us!"
"I wanted to say I'm sorry if I got you in trouble."
"That's very sweet, dear. But I really wasn't in any trouble... until I saw this dress. Come sit down."
"But mostly, a true friend is a person you can always tell the truth to without worrying about it."
"Do you ever drop one?"
"No, no, no.

"I'll bet you've never been to the colony of free spirits."
"What do they do there?"
"Whatever they want. Artists, philosophers, free-thinkers... .. people who don't quite fit other people's rules."
"Hold! What is the lesson for today!?"
"Damned if we know. We're just here for some fun and a mudbath."
"Every moment requires a purpose."
"No, it doesn't."
"Every purpose requires a plan."
"He does this every day; usually while everybody's food gets cold."
"The higher, the fewer!"
"Well, that's a conversation-stopper if I ever heard one."

"The great secret is not the variety of life; but the variety of us!"
"So, my little warrior wants to see more in life than just fighting.
Ah, the mind opens, and in creeps wisdom.
Onward, to the laughing!"
"I wanted to say I'm sorry if I got you in trouble."
"That's very sweet, dear. But I really wasn't in any trouble... until I saw this dress. Come sit down."
"Ugly, isn't it?
What's it for?"
"I'm getting married."
"Why?"
"Protocol master?"
"He is nonetheless welcome."
"Campio, dear, personally I adore every ounce of ostentation I can get, but... a protocol master?"
"I would not do you nor our benevolent hosts the disservice of failing to ensure that priorities are observed."
"Oh, well that's... very thoughtful."
"After all, it would be unpardonable to simply abandon ourselves to the moment, would it not?"
Sounds like one of Lwaxana Troi's weddings (which never actually come to pass). I think it was the Next Generation one. I think the final scene has Deanna, Lwaxanna, and Alexander enjoying a mudbath. Pan to Worf saying, "So all we do is SIT HERE?"
Alexander was having trouble with Worf, and Lwaxanna was having misgivings about her wedding. so she took him to a bizarre world (I think it was a holodeck simulation) where they could have fun. Worf was not amused. I'm sure there was also a main plot involving some dire threat to the Enterprise, but I can't remember it.

That about covers it.
Worf had trouble with Alexander ducking responsibility, and Lwaxanna Troi was there to get married
to Campio-whom she never met. Lwaxana made things difficult by teaching Alexander to be
carefree to the point of frivolity, and brought Alexander to a holodeck program where people
did whatever. The irony was that Campio was much more rigid than Worf, and Alexander
pretty much taught Lwaxana that she had to keep from choking her sense of self for the sake
of a marriage that was totally wrong for her except on paper.
The episode was called "Cost of Living", and the Enterprise also had a
crisis-of-the-week which involved a meteorite infecting the ship with space parasites
Deanna Troi mediating between Worf and Alexander. Worf wanted Alexander to do his
chores, and Alexander wanted Worf to not yell, which Deanna pointed out-since he said
he DIDN'T, should be an easy agreement to make.
"But mostly, a true friend is a person you can always tell the truth to without worrying about it."
Lwaxana to Alexander.
"Do you ever drop one?"
"No, no, no.
They are my worlds, and I protect them. I am a master of worlds, and they fly only as I wish."
Alexander and the juggler in the holodeck program, of the colony of free spirits.
"I'll bet you've never been to the colony of free spirits."
"What do they do there?"
"Whatever they want. Artists, philosophers, free-thinkers... .. people who don't quite fit other people's rules."
"Hold! What is the lesson for today!?"
"Damned if we know. We're just here for some fun and a mudbath."
"Every moment requires a purpose."
"No, it doesn't."
"Every purpose requires a plan."
"He does this every day; usually while everybody's food gets cold."
"The higher, the fewer!"
"Well, that's a conversation-stopper if I ever heard one."
I thought the philosopher who kept expounding his philosophy was very memorable.
Especially since Alexander kept saying "The higher, the fewer" whenever he wanted
to stop a conversation.
"To all the creatures within us!"
"All the creatures within us?"
"Of course. Every one of us has a thousand different kinds of tiny people inside us. Some of them want to get out and be wild; some want to be sad, or happy, or inventive or even go dancing. That's why we have different urges at different times."
"Are we ready for the entertainment?"

"And all those different little people inside us? We must never be afraid to take them with us wherever we go. Who knows when we might need one of them to pop up and rescue us from ourselves."
"The great secret is not the variety of life; but the variety of us!"
Lwaxana explaining to Alexander in the holodeck program.
"So, my little warrior wants to see more in life than just fighting.
Ah, the mind opens, and in creeps wisdom.
Onward, to the laughing!"
Alexander stopped the couple that loved to argue by telling them
"The higher, the fewer!" and confusing them.
"I wanted to say I'm sorry if I got you in trouble."
"That's very sweet, dear. But I really wasn't in any trouble... until I saw this dress. Come sit down."
"Ugly, isn't it?
What's it for?"
"I'm getting married."
"Why?"
Lwaxana was sent this antique wedding dress, since she wasn't going to get married
in a traditional Betazed wedding.
Alexander apologized, and asked the obvious question, which Lwaxana needed a friend
to ask, anyway.
"Protocol master?"
"He is nonetheless welcome."
"Campio, dear, personally I adore every ounce of ostentation I can get, but... a protocol master?"
"I would not do you nor our benevolent hosts the disservice of failing to ensure that priorities are observed."
"Oh, well that's... very thoughtful."
"After all, it would be unpardonable to simply abandon ourselves to the moment, would it not?"
".......Unpardonable."
Lwaxana met the stuffed-shirt Campio, who brought a professional killjoy to prepare for the wedding.

No, this episode is much earlier, although I believe that the custom referred to WAS used, perhaps for the last time in ST when Kehlahr died.

"Cowards take hostages. Klingons do not."
"It is a warning."
"A warning?"
"To the spirits. A warning that a Klingon warrior is coming."
"Why do you mock me? Why do you wish to anger me?"
"Only to see if it is still possible."
"You look for the battles in the wrong place. The true test of a warrior is not without, it is within."

Is this the one with the 21st century humans cryogenically frozen and now unfrozen,
and the Klingons from some time ago before the Federation/Klingon treaty?
No, it's HEART OF GLORY, isn't it?
When the 3 Klingons show up on the Enterprise.

Sounding familiar, but about all I'm sure of is that it's not an original series episode. Has sort of a Voyager ring to it.

Logically, then, it can be neither an OS or a Voyager episode. I suppose we'll need another quote or two.
