Nuka

I feel like Nuka needs to be discussed.
All he wants is his mother's love. I mean, who can't imagine what his position would be like? What lengths we'd go to to get such a small amount of praise and attention, what things would be done just to get noticed, for that matter. I mean, hell, half the time Zira barely even acknowledges his presence, that's gotta hurt. And yeah, Nuka counts as a bad guy I guess cos he helps Zira try to kill Simba and take over the Pride Lands and all, but he ain't evil, and he ain't crazy, like his mama; he's just a neglected and angsty teen who just wants to be recognized and be somebody. Nuka's like pretty much everybody.
So, how does he fit in?
Is he Scar's son, or not? If he is Scar's son, why isn't he the "chosen one"? Why isn't he Scar's heir? If he's not Scar's son, what made Zira (or Scar, if you believe Zira wasn't just a crazy fangirl and that Scar really chose Kovu himself) choose Kovu to follow in Scar's pawprints instead of Nuka? As a baby it wouldn't have been known if he'd be smarter or more powerful than Nuka in anyway.
What are your theories about poor old Nuka and his meager role in his mother's plan and in the film?
