Allura secretly attempts to fly the Black Lion since she feels she will need to at some point as Arus' protector. But when the Voltron Force is called to handle an attack, she cannot master its controls and the team is forced to split up between protecting her when Black Lion is hit, and Keith in the Blue Lion. Lotor eventually realizes that the Blue Lion's pilot uses an attack-method unlike the one by the princess he is pursuing and leaves, but the rest of the Voltron Force are displeased with Allura, and Keith angrily contrasts her actions to Sven's selflessness. Unsure if she is still welcome among them at all, Allura overhears that Lotor has demanded her to be given to him, and feels guilty enough, and is so desperate to redeem herself to her friends and save Arus in some way, that she flies out to surrender herself...
