expected return has absolutely no effect
I sort of agree, it's just that absolute statements are always wrong.

The price and expected price determine strike points where volitility is maximum. A call too far from an expected price, prices outside expected volitility, trades pretty much at the difference between strike and current price with a small time premium. When you get toward prices that are more likely to actually happen then volitility becomes a premium.
