Nah, we already knew Zarkon had a past with Voltron with being the first black paladin. Was referring to Haggar actually being Zarkon's wifey (and most likely Lotor's momma).
And yeah, but it makes sense with Keith's character at this point. Dude's still mourning Shiro, and he isn't gonna be the perfect leader right off the bat. Lance is there to snap him out of it whenever he's making a brash decision, so that was nice. Plus the both of them are on better terms. Although the Klance comments I'm reading on Tumblr and how they interpret the scene where Lance opens up to him about stepping down is just ugh.
Also, I can't stress this enough, but I hope this plotline with Lance feeling useless in regards to being part of the team leads somewhere. You have a lot of potential here, and I hope they don't let it go to waste. Crossing my fingers for something amazing to happen with him in season 4

lol that was so obvi tho them two were always making eyes at each other, plus Lotar was totes half Altean.
Yeah I know K's not gonna be perfect and that he's really meant to be Black Lion's Paladin but I gotta say he's shown very few leadership qualities and has a tendancy to put his emotions before the needs of his teamates. Not cool bruh XP
Lol idewk how tumblr processes S3 lolololol
Fingers crossed too in regards to Lance. I'm still waiting for a final showdown when they return to Earth >:)

Tumblr interprets Season 3 (particularly that scene) as two men forming a (so far) clearly platonic friendship as romantic. Because guys can't be really good friends now unless they're totes gay. *rolls eyes*
Also, I've found out that Lotor and Lance had some sort of rivalry in the original 80's series. This gives the showrunners a great opportunity for a 'kidnap Lance' plot where Lotor tries to manipulate and/or hold him hostage.

lol I hope not, ah seen waaay too many ff fics of Lance getting kiddnapped or tortured like some weird fetish. Although, I guess it would be funny if it actually came true, like the fandom predicted it...but the fandom is also way cray cray so...lol pls no XD

Oh, I didn't mean it in that way. Eww, never that way. Hav moah faith in me pls.
We both know unlike Zarkon, Lotor wants to rule not by fear, but by false trust/manipulation. I could see his one lizard henchwoman (her name escapes me at the moment) coming across a situation where in the fight with the paladins, she somehow manages to get into Lance's head and discovering all his insecurities and such. She reports it to Lotor who deems it as a good opportunity to divide and conquer, tearing the paladins apart and ridding himself of the possibility of Voltron being formed again while Lance is in his possession.
Insert a scenario where he and his posse kidnap Lance to the others' dismay, and once captured, have Lotor play into Lance's insecurities and how his 'friends' seemingly treat him like crap. Maybe try to manipulate into joining him, though that may be far-fetched, unless quintessence gets involved.
Although on the bright side of things, I could totally picture Lance trying to hit on Axca and Ezor while imprisoned. From what I've seen of the latter so far, I think she'd find him pretty endearing. xD

That's cause they're all foils to the paladins, kinda like mirror universe counterparts...
Lotor=Shiro/Keith
Ezor=Lance
Acxa=Allura
Narti=Pidge

Well, that much was obvious.
Also I'm pretty sure Acxa is related to Keith at this point. They didn't reveal her being that masked Galra soldier in season 2 for nothing.

No bruh don't mess up my nice diagram! Besides Lotor and Keith clearly have a much greater connection in the flowong locks of Lotors hair.

Also waiting for him to sponsor L'Oréal.

Bitch no way, my hair's all the way down past my butt. Lotor ain't got shit on me. :PP
But yeah that'd be a really good career move on his part.
