What we don't see yet is the private investigator Jill's mom hired. Note in Ep8 Bianca says something about putting a face to the name...so it is possible Jill's mom already knows--for some time now-- about MC and that he is banging Sage and/or everything else depending on the path.Re: Jill/Sage date vs. caring for sick friend
DPC made a mistake with this setup, IMO. Caring for sick Sage shouldn't negatively impact the Jill route unless there is a strong narrative reason in future seasons. (That seems unlikely, as both Sage and Jill are LI's.)
Instead, there should have been a pre-emptive major choice: accept Tommy's olive branch to go out to the bar with fake ID or turn him down to go on the picnic date with Jill. Then, if MC finds out that Sage is sick, there could be a second choice to turn down Tommy (Sage path or others path) or to reschedule the picnic date to the next day (Jill path but keeps Sage path open).
edit to add: In fact, by rescheduling the Jill picnic to the following day for such a selfless reason, this should HELP convince Jill that MC is worth fighting for - unless MC is fuck buddies with Sage ... then, Jill might be suspicious.
Sorry, I am making this up as I go along so some facts might be missing.
And assuming a successful Jill path, wait till Jill's mom gets the next report from the private investigator, including the laser mic pointed at MC's window.
