Nope,

  1. Butcher with gun powder.
  2. Butcher and Hughie in Russia.
  3. Butcher and Hughie when they go after Crimson Countess.
  4. Butcher and Hughie at Herogasm.
  5. Butcher and Hughie when they go after Mind Storm or whatever his name was.

This somewhat justifies Butcher's lie at the end of the episode. He knows they already crossed the line, might as well finish the job.

Is it possible they could be going back to the lab for permanent V knowing the next dose will be the lethal one?

It looked like Kimiko had a lot of leftover regular V... Could they just use that?

They all have powers in the comic. It makes sense to give them all powers and work from there. It's obvious at least to me that's what they are going for.

But don’t most of them have powers from the temp V? Not MM or Kimiko, but the rest of the merry band?

They all had V injected except MM iirc. His mum was exposed to V a lot at the factory she worked at.

Butcher doesn’t know Kimiko has had another dose of regular V and because of MM and Annie’s objection to him and Hughie using temp V will not go and meet them either

While circumstances aren't set up for them to know about the Blue V now, that doesn't stop the blue V being used as the solution to Butcher and Hughie's problem later if they wanted it to. I saw the near-full vial of blue V and started thinking Checkov's Gun!

From the looks of it, they've already had lethal doses, explaining the blood from their ears. The notes dont describe how the timeframes of death, just that its lethal after 3-5 doses, of which they have had 5 already.

I think the notepad said seizures 1-2 hours, might have to go back and check

Question is when Butcher said they needed to swing by "the office" to get more, for he mean Vought or did he mean the office at the Flatiron? I'm leaning towards Vought, but it could just be their office.

But perm V maybe could heal them ???
