Goroth

Klingon captain who took Archer prisoner

A Klingon starship captain who received the fugitive Jonathan Archer from the bounty hunter Skalaar in 2153, only to lose his prisoner again within hours.

Goroth appears in the second-season Enterprise episode Bounty. After Archer's escape from the penal colony of Rura Penthe, the Empire offers a reward for him, and Goroth commands the warship sent to collect him from the Tellarite Skalaar.
Goroth treats the bounty hunter with contempt and gloats over the captive. Skalaar, who has just learned that the ship he hoped to buy back with the reward no longer exists, has already come to regret the bargain and secretly gives Archer the means to free himself.
Archer breaks out of his cell and leaves in an escape pod. Goroth pursues, but Enterprise arrives, recovers its captain and disables the Klingon ship.
