I....I'm not sure quite where this one is headed.  This could be Derek recovering from his shock to toss the apartment.  It could be Vik's attempt to cope or to find a weapon to restore some justice to his world.  It could be Zenon's next move or Claudia's next move.  It could be a flashback to Erin's night with Raven.  It could be Laura stocking up for Girls' Night before having fun with Adrian herself.  It could be a euphemism for Laura and Adrian coupling--or this could be Weston's skeeviness emerging with his ego.  Or...something else entirely.

We don't know where Raven lives.  It might be nice to find out, but there's no way she's still hanging out at the SJI--although, her snooping through Erin's stuff and tripping over the Watch might have some possibilities.

Hitomi?  With that title, the only thing I could think of would be a flashback to what she did after Cait left.  If we see her alone in the dorm room in this issue, the title makes it sound like she's pawing through Cait's closet and bureau looking for fantasy fodder.

That particular phrase doesn't strike me as highly ubiquitous (like Juicy some years back).  Why did Dani have (at least) two pairs of these?  Did she really like the joke even before her first round of programming?  Remember, she was wearing underwear with the same phrase (though it might have been white) the night she first met Adrian...I think it was episode 3.

Also, even when the blind squirrel finds a nut, he can't express it.  Derek made it sound like he found the girl, when what he found was the ID.  What idiotic syntax from him--though quite typical of his character.  I guess we have to hope that the guy at the desk or El Magnifico take the opportunity to break his nose and dislocate at least one of his shoulders before he can get back to Claudia.

This issue reopens what for me is the biggest mystery of the comic - who is Danielle, and what happened to make her leave the harem?  And why does she have the watch?

So Claudia, Zenon and Derek are after the watch.  They know it's in Kearsarge, or at least linked with someone in Kearsarge.  Derek actually dated Danielle, presumably as part of his secret mission to investigate Wilmot's women.  But he, Claudia and Zenon were unable to make that connection?

I have faith that this will all make sense in due time, but in the mean time, I'm trying to come up with plausible explanations for how this happened.

re: this issue in particular, three things stand out.  First, I really like the closeup of Claudia in panel 4 - very nicely done; secondly, no sign of what disgusted Derek last issue - still wonder what it was; third (and this is in the 'probably reading too much into things' area), what's on the floor in the bottom left corner of panel 2?  Is it just some clothes that landed in a weird way?

Lastly: I'm really glad this happened in terms of plot development - with Dani having visions of her previous life, and with Claudia et al. now aware of her importance, the stage has really been set.

He love Danielle and trust her, For her to control the Harem Girls. So she use the watch ( side note she only know how to do hypnos with watch when she is  hypnosis)
See page SJI 54, 60-62

I was (not surprisingly) unclear.  I didn't mean to imply that Zenon or Derek had a connection with the harem prior to their current assignment - it's more that Zenon actually had Dani in his office, hypnotized, and she didn't behave the way Caitlyn or Laura did, which should have raised some suspicion; Derek actually dated her.  They were both 'on assignment', they both had very close contact with Danielle, and neither was able to make any connection.  Until this issue, neither of them managed to do so, and Zenon had as his assignment the hypnosis of Kearsarge's women to locate the watch!

GodWilling, you put it much better: the polaroids and the computer actually locate Dani and Claudia together.  They know there's something in Kearsarge.

My point was just that I don't understand how Dani could 1) get out of the harem; 2) get the watch; 3) not know about the watch until 'activated'; 4) date someone who came to town specifically to find the watch; 5) go to a hypnosis session with someone who came to town specifically to find the watch; and 6) still fly under the radar until identified by her underwear in today's issue.  Did the original owner of the watch use it to remove all memories of Dani's harem life from Claudia and Dani?  It (to me, anyway) is the most interesting unresolved question of the backstory (and I have many), and I'm excited to see some development on it.

Dani's timeline is all over the place.  She could have been recruited on a college trip to Wilmot, but the insinuation from her flashback episode seems to be that she was abducted in New York on that puddle-jumper the last time she saw her father.

I don't believe in coincidences that amazing.

In Zenon's defense--Dani's reaction to hypnosis was weird, but the story she verbalized was somewhat plausible, and didn't directly point to The Watch.  In addition, that was his first session with her.  He probably thought he'd get another opportunity or that Derek would do his job--heck, that might have been what Derek was there to do during the "hypnotism tango" and everything went pear-shaped.

Maybe the logo on the panties is a trigger phrase?
