#1
S1E39 8.4
The Captive Comet

Haggar locates and takes control of the Omega Comet, a legendary black-hole-like structure which crushes and destroys anything in its path, and sends it for Arus. Though Voltron redirected it once after a decade of trying, the Voltron Force are forced to race against time to move it themselves after they get Romelle's warning. Seeing Allura's cousin's loyalty to them, Lotor mentions that a certain control-function will help them in front of Romelle, and she relays the information to them. But it was a trap Lotor had her lure them into, and they crash-land and are stranded upon the comet without power. The Galaxy Alliance can send no reinforcements thanks to Zarkon's fighting. But Bandor goes against orders to stop guarding the power-supply he was posted in front of to repay his comrades. The Voltron Force cannot escape, and conclude that Bandor must use his arsenal to strike the comet away from Arus - though they know it means self-sacrifice.

S1E41 8.4
There Will Be a Royal Wedding

The one who approaches Romelle after her being forced into the Pit of Skulls is a young, wild-eyed man who warns her of the approaching guards that come down to ensure she is finished, and helps her into a passageway through a cave but then vehemently bids her leave him. She is able to identify him as Sven, but the former pilot of the Blue Lion has lost his faith in himself, feeling remorse over his defeat by Haggar and his inability to aid Planet Ebb when it was attacked when he was hospitalized, and is nearly mad with grief after witnessing so many brutalities every day. Romelle tries to convince Sven to help her get off Doom and contact the Voltron Force so she can return to and defend Pollux as only she knows how, with the help of a group of slaves who are desperate for their own freedom and could be what they need to help them escape...

Voltron Versus Voltron

Yadle, an unattended colony-planet of Zarkon's, declares itself independent and prepares to celebrate along with its allies, the Voltron Force. Haggar creates a Voltron look-alike to subdue its people with Lotor's guards before it will be used to attack the real robot. A young friend named Bobby goes to guide the Voltron Force to Yadle to get through Zarkon's magnetic field. However, they have yet to be warned that they are awaited by a robot that has all their powers and the ability to know what maneuvers they will perform even before they carry them out.
