- Narrator: The castle of the Queen of Darkness. Her reign has spread unhappiness throughout the stars. But what happens when an evil queen wants to become good?
- Queen Merla: [of his being on her planet] It is forbidden.
- Prince Lotor: Even for a man who was once your boyfriend?
- Queen Merla: You will rent a modest castle on some suburban planet, and my nephews can come and visit.
- Prince Lotor: They would be cute with their pointy little ears.
- Cmdr. Cossack: Sire, you're ship's ready. I got it all souped up for ya, lean and mean. I even put an 8-ball on the gear shift.
- Keith: Release your slaves and I'll call off the Lions.
- King Zarkon: Release my slaves? Then I'd have to do my own work.
- Princess Allura: The change might do you good, Zarkon.
- King Zarkon: Yes, but it would ruin my image. People just won't accept a tyrant who does his own laundry.
- Prince Lotor: Ah, my good friends. What a pleasure to see you again.
- Keith: Yeah? Well, it's no pleasure for us.
- Prince Lotor: It's nice to see you acting like a *real* prince.
- Princess Allura: [clasps her hand] Then tell me you'll be my bride.
- Prince Lotor: Lotor, I'm a pilot on a mission. Anyway, you're pledged to Merla.
- King Zarkon: Let's see, you're looking for a heart, a brain, and Kansas.
- Keith: You're gonna wish you *were* in Oz.
- Prince Lotor: [Keith takes out his sword] Don't threaten me, little man.
- Keith: This is no threat. It's a promise.
- [last lines]
- Princess Allura: Your time's running out, Zarkon.
- Pidge: That's right.
- King Zarkon: Nonsense. I'll rule forever.
- [the screen showing him goes off]
- Keith: No chance, Zarkon. You're a legend in your own mind. So let me clue you in: two-bit tyrants with fancy titles are a dime a dozen. But there's only one Voltron, Defender of the Universe!
