That's some pretty wonderfully sexy art there. 

Too bad there's likely to be some nasty fallout for Q in the near future, heh.

I'm still worried about the crystal.

100% agreed about the art.

Adrian is definitely a gentleman.  I can't remember which etiquette book said it was important to engage in a threesome at the request of your harem member's twin sister, but I recall that particular rule with absolute clarity, and Adrian is nothing if not considerate to the needs of others.

I wonder if Kanti is going to be shocked and disgusted at Q while simultaneously jumping him, or whether she'll jump in with Adrian and the twins instead.  I maintain that Q is worse for lying about Pink Clouds and what he did to Kanti than actually the use itself.  (You know, it's not the crime, it's the coverup.)  I also wonder if Q's conversation with Laura when she was synthesizing the antidote - giving preparation directions that Laura said would have denatured the compound - was his attempt to forestall Kanti's taking of the antidote.

If Q was so worried about Kanti taking the antidote he could have never mentioned it in the first place.  He was the driver behind its creation; why do that and then try to sabotage it at the last moment?

I'm hoping the antidote turns out to be something like a love potion, that makes the woman into the slave of whoever she sleeps with during the lust phase.  I can just see Adrian's face when both Amy and Hayley call him "Master" in the afterglow.  Bonus points if Kanti is so pissed at Q that she uses Adrian or Yves to scratch her itch instead.  All sorts of interesting conflict could come out of that.

No, I think Q is basically "good", in that he was pointing the way to the antidote, but he tried to sabotage the first try at creating the compound at that moment so that Kanti wouldn't have it, but a second try might have made it work.  Laura, however, spotted the problem and fixed it, so the antidote actually worked.  I think that explanation accounts for his "You're good at this" line, an odd thing to say to a PhD candidate in Chemistry doing research into perfume compounds.

I like the scenario that the "love potion" antidote is itself a mind control drug. Good one.

Also, love the expression on Laura's face in the last frame.  She's a dirty-minded girl, I think, in the best way.

Yeah, that might be interesting if it is a love potion.  I've of course been hoping for the recruitment of Hayley or Raven or whoever into the harem, one way or another.  Also Pearl.  

Speaking of, since it's been implied that Pearl was subjected to PC at one point (and Jacky probably suspects as much), I wonder if the antidote is going to be used on her.  Preferably by her mother, with no one else around.  

Even if it's not a love potion and the effect is only temporary, here's hoping that it gives Hayley to have a conversation with Amy and Adrian about their relationship and she understands.  I mean, at this moment Hayley is in an incestuous lesbian relationship with her twin sister, so I'm hoping she's accepting of other people's alternative relationship structures, including harems.  The mind control might throw her for a loop, but if she understands that it wasn't Adrian who started it, she might be more amenable.  I don't know what the watch status is at this point (I'm not sure if I believe that Cherry has the crystal, it seems strange, but clearly it's up in the air still), but here's hoping that we get more inductees one way or another.  I'm hoping that we get to see an induction start to finish at some point here; the induction scenes with the watch remind me a bit of Good to the Last Drop from the EMCSA.  If the watch ever gets patched up, Amy inducting Hayley would be hot.  Or Jacqui inducting Pearl, obviously.  

And on a note completely unrelated to the current storyline, is anything ever going to happen with Sue?  Curvy waitress seemed like she'd be a bigger deal since she was on a roster at one point.  Have plans changed?
