The Jedi Council gathered in the chambers for an emergency meeting regarding a disturbance on Coruscant. All except for Mace Windu. While he and Brenda were still away on their honeymoon, Myra was sitting in her father's place.

"I could get used to this." Myra sighed, liking how comfy her father's chair was.

"Any clue where Master Mundi is?" said Obi-Wan.

"Comedia said she'd get him." Anakin said, when he heard the door opening. "Speak of the devil."

Except, the Jedi were all surprised to see Comedia had to literally drag her father in, as Ms. Susy kept taking Ki-Adi for herself.

"He's mine!" Ms. Susy said, sounding totally crazy. "No one takes my Ki-Adi Cat."

The Twi-lek purred as she coddled Ki-Adi, getting lost in his eyes again, prompting Comedia to chew on her rubber chicken again. She looked an absolute mess! Her mane was all messed up, her curls were totally uneven, and Comedia was wearing a pink fedora instead of her propeller beanie.

"What happened to you?" Myra said.

"What do you think?" Comedia said. "I woke up, threw up, and my dad is acting all loopy!"

Ms. Susy and Ki-Adi were now waltzing with each other like they were in a fairy tale or something.

"No kidding." Anakin said. "One date, and they're already head over heels. And Master Mundi's got a lot of head to go over."

"Hey! No making fun of my dad's head, okay?"

Again, Comedia really didn't appreciate her dad's head size being the target of poking fun, especially considering he literally got bigger headaches than the others usually did. And head colds were a real nightmare for him.

"Sorry."

But, the other Jedi had to admit, it did seem a little crazy that Ki-Adi and Susy were so in love so fast. It was a good thing Carmine wasn't there at the moment, because he'd probably scream high enough to shatter the windows if he saw this.

"Master Mundi, sit will you please?" Yoda said.

Ki-Adi did sit, but he took Ms. Susy with him, and they wouldn't stop looking into each other's eyes. Comedia stayed to keep an eye on them too.

Finally, the meeting could officially begin.

A holo presentation was pulled up as Anakin pulled up videos of people acting crazy all over Coruscant. People were suddenly doing things they might not normally do. Some were giving away everything they had without a second thought, others were acting like wild animals, and everyone was overall acting like they were on drugs or drank too much at a bar or something.

"As you can see," said Anakin. "This is all just from yesterday, but it's actually been going on for three whole days. We just didn't notice because it began in the lower levels."

"Are you sure people aren't just drinking way too much?" Myra said. "Or the cops just aren't watching for those crazy teen parties? Why do you think I'm picky about what parties I go to?"

"Normally, I would think that was the case, but the police did some investigating, and they found everyone who was acting crazy had boxes of these in their homes."

Anakin placed what looked like a bunch of tea bags on the table.

"Tea bags?" Obi-Wan said. "How could tea cause people to act crazy? Unless… it's drugged."

"It's drugged alright, but not with what you think."

Anakin pulled up a picture of a symbol that looked like a heart with two tea bags tied around it. Comedia recognized that symbol! She'd seen it on the box for the tea she purchased yesterday. But, that wasn't the only thing she noticed, especially once she got a look at Ki-Adi and Susy's eyes.

"According to the database, that's the mark of Scarlett Le Scroc, a drug dealer of the enchanted world. She was once a simple tea ship owner, but eventually she started selling poisoned teas on the dark market and graduated to selling poisoned teas publicly so she can con people out of different things. But the teas' effects vary."

It was true. Scarlett had teas that could make people turn totally obedient, force people to tell the truth all the time, even to act like the opposites of themselves. But, one of her most notorious tea poisons was love potions.

"Uh, this might not be the best time to ask," said Comedia. "But do Cereans' eyes change color when they're in love?"

"I don't think so. Why?" Master Fisto asked.

"What about Twi'leks'?"

"No. Neither of their eyes change color. In love or otherwise. Except perhaps allergies." said Plo.

"Then both these two must have very strange allergies, because right now I'm looking at my dad's eyes and they're looking orange, and Ms. Susy here is looking purple in the eyes."

That didn't make any sense though. Last time any of the Jedi checked, Master Mundi had yellow eyes, and Anakin was pretty sure Ms. Susy's were a dark shade of blue.

Master Plo Koon and Fisto pulled Master Mundi and Susy apart, but the two started to freak out. And when they tried to get back together, Comedia used her magic horn to keep them apart.

"Um…. Anakin? What does this Scarlett Le Scroc person look like?" Comedia asked.

"Ah! There's a picture right here." Anakin said, pulling up the picture, and to Comedia's great surprise, it was the same woman she'd gotten the tea from!

"It's her!"

"What's her?" Obi-Wan said. "Comedia…? Did you see her?"

"Yes… and I think I poisoned my dad and Ms. Susy!" Comedia panicked.

Comedia was suddenly whinnying and running about like crazy, not knowing what to do.

"Comedia, calm down!" Ahsoka said.

"Calm down?! How can I calm down?! My dad just drank poisoned tea!"

"Not deadly poisoned." Anakin said. "At least, I hope. What kind of tea did you give them?"

"Something called thé des luxure." Comedia said. "Does the database have any info on that?"

Unfortunately, the database didn't say which teas did what, but Anakin knew someone who might know.

"Do you still have some of that tea?" Anakin asked.

Comedia nodded. "Yes. In my apartment. I'll go get it."


Garrett ran some tests on the tea bags and looked into a few books. And once he got the results.

"It's just as I thought. Lust juice." said Garrett.

"What's that?" Comedia asked.

Lust juice was more commonly referred to as a Love Potion. Except, that was because a lot of people didn't know how to totally differentiate between love and lust. You could add love to a recipe, but you can't make it turn someone loving. And being attracted to someone or something doesn't mean you love them, whether you're under a potion's spell or not.

"This particular recipe is very dangerous. Not in a sense that it kills the drinkers, at least, not directly."

"What do you mean?"

According to Garrett, this Lust Juice was once used in an attempt to seal arranged marriages between unwilling couples a long time ago by making both halves fall madly in love so they would cooperate and go through with the marriage. But, there were consequences when the potion turned out to be not so loving. For this particular recipe, the effects caused any two people who drank it together to get lost in each other's eyes, as well as acting all mushy and kissing a lot. And with these effects, the two people would be so lost in their lust for each other that they couldn't focus on anything else. At various moments in history, this potion had deadly consequences.

In one instance, two merfolk took this potion and got so lost in each other's eyes they didn't even notice a tsunami forming or when a shiver of sharks attacked their kingdom. In another, one man tried giving this tea to a girl he wanted on a tropical island paradise, but they were so busy lusting for each other, they didn't make it out when a volcano on the island erupted and destroyed almost everything. And in one more instance, two royal families who agreed they would set their children to wed gave this potion to them, and they ended up having children. But since the lustful potion was still in effect, they were so lost in each other's eyes and such, they couldn't focus on taking care of their kids, or performing any royal duties.

"Oh no! Oh no! This isn't good." Comedia said.

"Don't worry, Comedia." Myra said. "Master Mundi and Ms. Susy don't have royal duties, and there aren't any volcanoes or oceans around here either."

"But they still have responsibilities." Comedia said. "If we don't fix this…"

Comedia dreaded what could happen. If Ki-Adi and Susy stayed under the spell… Master Mundi wouldn't be able to train Jedi or take care of Comedia, and Ms. Susy wouldn't be able to teach ballet classes. Before they knew it, Comedia would have to move back to Equinaro to live with Queen Reigna, and aspiring ballerinas would be short one great teacher, which would probably mean no more Life Day performances of the Nutcracker, and Lamenta was excitedly preparing for an audition!

"Not to worry, Comedia. There is an antidote." Garrett said. "But it requires a series of steps."

"What steps?"

The steps to cure this potion were these:

Step 1: Have both drinkers drink one cup of green tea

Step 2: Separate the two drinkers and keep them separated while performing step 3 for one full hour.

Step 3: Get both subjects into some form of exercising and make sure neither looks into the others' eyes for the full extent of the hour.

"Sounds easy enough." Comedia said. "I think Obi-Wan might have some green tea. He's always stocked up on tea. Maybe I should bring some crumpets to trade."

"This is serious, Comedia." Garrett said. "Even without a potion, lust is a dangerous thing. You're young now, so learn all you can so you know the difference between that and love."

"Okay, but back to my dad. How exactly will we make sure they stay apart long enough for us to break the spell?"

"We can always lure one of them onto a ship and take them off-world." Myra said. "Then we just gotta keep them active."

"What about Scarlett?" Comedia said.

"Leave finding her to us." Garrett said. "Where did you see her, Comedia?"

"At the market on Helo Drive in the shopping district. Her booth had a red tarp over it."

"Duly noted. Alright. Girls, you take care of breaking the spell, I will aid the others in locating Scarlett Le Scroc." Garrett gave the book to the girls so they wouldn't forget a step. But, they knew they were going to need some help. So, Myra enlisted the twins Boba and Omega, Gabby, Mona, Lamenta, and Goldie to help them out while the grownups took care of the drugged tea dealer.
