She sent them Wes' way. Surely he had some potions background.

This was certainly an odd situation. The woman can't remember her name, or who she is, what she's doing... and the green smoke. It's not like a typical memory charm; usually those just adjust one memory or erase one. This seems to have completely altered her mind.

"That's definitely a Confusing and Befuddlement Draught," he concluded. So, her memory wasn't modified, she was just...well, confused. "Alright ummmm..." hmm, what to do now? Obviously an antidote was in order, but first they needed to figure out what ingredients were in this potion, so they could counteract it in the antidote.

Samuel had been listening to the conversation between the woman (Calla) and Miss Clueless, but he didn't speak a word until the woman rushed off to the Breakroom and returned minutes later with a cup. For the love of merlin, who keeps a POTION in a refrigerator where everyone could get to it?! This place was crazy.

"Confusing and Befuddlement Draught," he repeated. "Isn't, ummm, scurvy-grass used in that potion, too?" Sam wasn't the one that was an expert in potions, but he did remember a few stuff here and there. This was the time when he wished he had a pocket-sized Potions book.
