Speaking of the drugs, I think the MC is approaching the pills very differently from Jada.Understandable, and even if it doesn't justify it, this only happened because of MC's father, of which she was also a victim. However, you have to give her credit that she is working on herself and seems to have professional help by now. Whereby, let's scratch professional. She is currently being provided with experimental drugs. So she's more of a guinea pig.
Jada wants to take advantage of her drugged vulnerability to get something out of her (which she and MC did with getting Jada to stay). Using the suggestibility aspect.
With a few exceptions, the MC has been using, or trying to use if he can ever get there before Jada, the drug as a truth serum, trying to get behind any facades Rachel may be keeping up, so that she knows if she can trust Rachel. Unfortunately, Jada often goes too far. Given their history, MC primarily want to feel safe around Rachel and saw the pills as a shortcut to learning what was actually going on with Rachel.
Ultimately, it did its job. MC started trusting Rachel more, understanding how damaged she was by MC's dad.
