I've long felt that Maya and Josy have had a much larger impact on the MC that the other girls. I'm not sure if that was a conscious choice on DPCs part, or that all the girls will wind up sucking the MC into a vortex of drama and they just happened to be the first in the queue.BADIK hides it well, but at times it feels like the story of M&J and the MC who ended up being much more. In essence all LI weren't created equal
As with many other topics, I'm hopeful Episode 6 will finally point us towards some answers.

Their presence in episode 5 was a lot more subdued than in the first season. Something tells me that now we get to the other girls dramas. Probably Sage will be next with Chad's break up, Heather's coup and Quinn's betrayal, and Jill and Bella will probably follow.
I have a feeling Bella will be the last one to have her "moment", but it could be Jill, since she was the last one added in the game and such.
One more thing, M&J drama is not over, we still have Maya's dad to deal with, Tommy and his little sister complex and Monica as the evil stepmother (or not) and finally the tuition drama were we introduce Maya to the idea of having a job and not believing that there is such thing as free lunch, etc...
I believe the requirements are as follows:
1) Order "sushi" (Riona) from Quinn's restaurant at some point.
2) Talk to Riona at the DiK party after Cathy's pic is posted (Ep. 4), and be willing to talk about it with her.
3) Smoke weed on the roof in Ep. 4.
4) Have at least one $ (will need to make sure you have it at the end of Ep. 4, since you are forced into the Riona conversation before you have a chance to get any money in Ep. 5).
You might also need to make-out with Riona during the party in Ep. 4, but I'm not 100% about that one. Can't hurt, though.
When you get the encounter with Riona, you'll need to pick the options that go with the choices above: smoke weed when she offers it, confront her into opening up to you like you did with her, and give her at least one $ when she mentions money problems. After that she should offer sex, and you just have to accept and enjoy.

my curiosity: but what do we know about DPC? he's Swedish if I'm not mistaken, but do you know anything else?
age? educational qualification?

That's precisely what I was saying would be a mistake.
If the game is going to treat you as having an affair with Sage regardless of whether you have an affair with Sage, what does the "choice" not to start an affair with Sage really mean?
I mean, if we play out your scenario, what are the possible end points?
- Everyone believes MC/Sage is a thing: This makes those trying to avoid Sage feel railroaded. As I mentioned before, it's Maya/Josy 2: Redhead Boogaloo.
- No one believes MC/Sage is a thing: The much foreshadowed confrontation with Chad becomes a nothing burger, despite all the blatant actions by MCs on the Sage path.
- Non-Sage-path MCs easily prove their innocence, Sage-path MC have to deal with a major crisis: This avoids railroading the players, but then again, what was the point of accusing non-Sage-path MCs in the first place? It's also a major branch, making it extremely resource intensive.
- Both paths face major crisis relating to Chad for other reasons, Sage-path MCs get additional scenes dealing with their affair: This seems like the best case by far, and you'll note that it gets nothing out of having Mel/Sarah lie about the MC and Sage.
Or just accept the branch and only have the MC accused of cheating with Sage when he did.

That is the unfortunate problem with these issues. we are not playing a make your own decision game written by a AAA dev studio with a multi-million budget with numerous completely different storylines.
All points must converge at some point. We are following a very set story so regardless of choice (on chosen LI path), they must still all end up at the same place or as a previous poster said, he is then not writing one story, he is writing 25 seperate stories. That just isn't feasible. So as we know for sure (on Sages path) Mel is going to call to Chad, the easiest way around this in all other paths is for the call to have still happened, but she lied instead. Chad is told about the MC and Sage, Chad is pissed, Chad is out for you. You have to understand the 'illusion' of choice here. Regardless of what you do and who with, you still end up at the same place. The trick for DPC is to make the differences inbetween interesting enough to want to see them. You'll still end up at the same place though. Because ultimately, whether you like it or not, you are largely on rails.
Does it cheapen anything? I guess that comes down to personal opinion, but that is unfortunately what has to happen in this type of branching game where the divergences end up at the same place. Just something you have to accept. Or, we all have to wait exponentially longer amd longer between updates for him to deal with 25 completely different branching storylines where eventually, it will be an udate per LI as he has given himself so much work. Unlikely to happen.
Look at like this. if you avoid everyone...you still act like a lovesick cucked husband and walk out of Maya's dorm. You still go on a date with Jill regardless of what you did. You are on rails and you are following a predetermined story. (That doesn't mean we can't have 412 different endings, but there will be more points where regardless of choice, regardless of LI, you'll end up in the same spot as everyone else). For that to happen, there has to be times where you'll just have to roll with it.

the third point would not be forced.
It is credible that Chad still has some suspicions about MC, regardless of whether it is true or not.
also even if there was nothing between Sage and MC, the fact of having to "prove" it to Chad could reopen their relationship

Well, I will quote you on that and say that you don't need the Quinn/Riona threesome. The requirements are as chronomate has detailed.
The one thing I can think of that might create this conflct between Chad and the MC, even if it is just for appearances on Chad's side, could be if the MC and Sage start hanging out a bit more as it seems like they might after the conversation in ep 5 if you're not FWB with Sage. Perhaps the MC and Sage will hang out a couple of times very publicly, and then during one of these times Chad will appear to confront the MC and accuse him of trying to "steal his girl". This could also happen on the FWB path as well, with the MC and Sage spending more time together in public places, and each version would have some variations in dialogue and renders, i.e. a kiss on the FWB path, but not on the friend path.
After M&J, it's hard to see how anyone other than Bella is going to have drama that could even get close to their level. Sage has a boyfriend who doesn't seem interested in her, and Jill doesn't seem to have much in the way of personal problems, so both are relatively tame by comparison. Only Bella seems to be suffering from some kind of deep emotional trauma that could be very dramatic for her story and greatly affect her relationship with the MC.
It's also why I see it involving Jill in some way too (like my theory that whatever "happened" between them before is the reason her husband left), because there doesn't seem to be much solo drama around Jill and having hers linked to Bella's might be easier. But, at the same time, it might feel cheap to do so rather than giving her something of her own to deal with.
personally I wonder if chad’s might be more annoyed at Sage not playing the perception of the doting girlfriend(which would be true regardless) more than whether she’s getting laid.
Easy to add some extra antagonism with MC on top of that if he is dik if they have another confrontation at some point.

I understand your point, but I don't quite agree. I think there are three scenarios.
Sage path. Not much to say. I'm breaking with Chad so we might as well make it official kind of route. Pretty straightforward.
Other LI path with a MC who didn't have anything with Sage (Sarah and Melanie lie and have no evidence). Some drama with some LIs but nothing major. They should believe the MC's innocence.
Other LI path with a MC who had something with Sage. (Sarah and Melanie tell the truth and have evidence, maybe more than we think) That's the complicated stuff. Technically the MC can still fool around with anyone, specially after Maya's no strings attached last episode. But some LI (looking at you Jill) might not aprove. Jill knows we're dating other girls, but I don't know if that in her mind includes having sex with them. So despite not cheating on her she might want to stop it.
I don't think the it has to impact every LI route equally. It could still have a big impact on the story (demoting Sage, HOT trouble) but not affecting a Bella (to name one) path much.

I think it is too early for "jealousy" / "betrayal" problems with LIs
in the middle of the game it would be counterproductive to push a player towards a monogamous relationship, a little freedom must be guaranteed.
it is in everyone's interest, including DPC, that MC has interactions with the other LIs

I think the middle is the right time. Not locking until the end is pointless, and if you can't cheat (or there are no consecuences for it) there's also no good reason to play a faithful route.

I finally did it. I mustered up the strength to do it, and I went full psycho this latest run through; I stole the money in Jill's room!

Most people who play these games/VNs will likely be pursuing all the girls they can, not just one, because that's how most guys are; they want many different women without (much) consequence and these games let them live out that fantasy. So, to keep interest in the game for as long as possible, it can be very beneficial to allow players to continue having multiple relationships right up until the end, or near the end.
DPC can very easily keep all these relationships going until the last few episodes, even if the players have to make choices between certain girls that unlock different scenes, but there's no reason why we couldn't still be dating/seeing Maya, Josy, Sage, Jill, and Bella, with the occasional side pieces like Camila, Riona, Lily, Jade, etc.
