What I love about this line, other than the glorious villainous breakdown and Lotor showing what a fun villain he is, is that his entire ideology and plans were given to us from the very start of the arc. But what I enjoy most is this
His plan was to gain Allura’s trust and the alliance of Voltron, and what is the title of the very first episode where the alliance starts?
They told us. The minute he joined voltron they flat out told us.
This is the most blessed image on the internet. Zarkon is smiling and being adorkable reaching to Haggar who reaches his chest, Haggar as the center of her fam ignoring Lotor’s glare and doing her own thing and getting the flirty attention of the host, and Lotor is brat. Truly a blessed day to us all.

The more I watch this scene the more I suspect the whole nature vs nurture that is brought up in interviews really is implying Lotor was always messed up due to his birth circumstances. Those giggles with the music really give a horror movie child feel. The zooming on the little Omen Lotor also seems to give the implication something is not right here, not just with how Haggar and Zarkon are, but with Lotor himself. Could it be that the “odds were against him from the start” they brought up post-s6 was that due to his zombie baby status, something was always off? That he could never be anything other than sinister because of the same thing that made his parents that way? This scene is also placed in the episode where Lotor officially gains the benefit of the doubt from the paladins -which was his plan as he said so to Zethrid and Ezor in all good things- so it was one of the cues of his sinister nature as well.
