You can't quite shake the suspicion that someone has poisoned the butter. While you yammer something mindless to keep Ryouko focused on your head, you quietly slip a packet of anti-toxin powder out of your pocket. You casually get the butter, sprinkle the powder on it, then spread some on your bread. Better test it yourself, first.

Ryoko's eyes bug as she sees you about to eat buttered bread. She reaches across the table, "No, don't eat that...!" Too late. You eat it. Everyone stares at her. Nothing bad happens.

Yosho says to Ryoko, "What was that all about?"

Ryoko blushes, "Nothing. Just that I... nothing."

Ayeka stares at her. "Just that you what?"

Ryoko says, "Uh, er... I thought it had gone bad. Yes, that was it."

Ayeka says, "Bad?"

Washu-chan says to Ryoko, "Nice try, but it obviously didn't work Ryoko, or Kunou would be turning purple by now and trying to take his clothing off." She giggles. "You should have chosen something only your target would eat."

Tenchi shakes his head and moans. It could be disgust, or it could be Ryoko's cooking...

You wonder who the drug was for, but thank the gods your anti-toxin worked. That could have been embarrasing. So who did Ryoko want to embarrass? At least you won't be bored here...
