Still, my guest is that he is indeed human, like Maleficent said, but there was something special about him, could be that he knew Maleficent's secrets, things that she didn't want anybody to know, or because he is Maleficent's weakness (let's say somebody that she really cared about). Since the alternative name for D3 is "The Big Sleep", I'm guessing that Maleficent put Mal's father in a big sleep, could be to maintain her secret safe, or to keep him safe, or to bury her weakness, or all three options above.

In the teaser, Mal could be dreaming, and there, her father contacts her. Mal then decides to look for him and save him.

Another theory that I got is that Mal's dad still remains (sorta) irrelevant throughout D3 and what we saw in the teaser was a trap set by Maleficent. She makes Mal believe that her father needs to be saved, and in the same time, brainwashes Mal into doing bad stuff.

I got a feeling I'll soon make a blog about this... could even extend to fanfic... I need to be stopped. Help!
