Suzaku drugged Kallen. Anyone who have doubts obviously haven't been watching Code Geass R2.
If Kallen isn't drugged, she was saved by someone. However, it is clearly obvious that Suzaku will do it.

Also the drug makes the person forget reality completely. They won't even know if they are talking to someone, if someone else is in the room, or if no one is there. Of course, they can't tell a friend from a foe. This is the part where a person can simply ask a question and get an answer.

Suzaku doesn't want to know who Zero is. He just wants to know if Lelouch is Zero. Big difference in terms of vengeance.

Now you can say he's going about it the wrong way or that their's a pepper-shake of selfishness in his actions, but to that end of advancing that dream of becoming a KoOne and building a protected area for all people this is what he feels he has to do...Confirm Lulu's involvment...
what ever agenda he might belive she and he share
there is no way no how no chance in hell that he belives she would agree with hes actions if she knew it was aimed against her brother
he knows that if she learned he was her brothers enemy she would turn against him in a heartbeat
thats why he is lying to her about lulu being missing and telling her not to talk to milly and the others
too bad for him that she already knows he's lying to her (ep 6) and i think she also suspects that lulu is zero
that might be why she took kallen in to her custody
and why she raised the matter of lulu's absence in their talk (she thinks that if lulu is zero then kallen could tell her more)

Regular drugs do that. Refrain does not. It makes people hallucinate about happier times. There's no inhibitions being broken down, just old memories being forcibly recalled. There's no basis in the show for this being a viable method of interrogation. People don't even acknowledge those around them, much less truthfully answer questions.

the drug makes you completely lose touch with reallity
kallens mom didnt notice that she was being carried by a KMF who was at the time fighting against another KMF
what on earth makes suzaku think that this would get him answers (keep in mind that even if she does refer to lulu being zero it could just mean she's talking about the event of season 1)

I don't recall Nunally's dream ever including drugging people against their will, nor Euphies. Their entire dream is to have people come to an understanding of one another without being forced into it, free choice. What Suzaku is doing is not that, he is forcing his own vendetta onto Kallen and using Shirley's death as justification. Refrain will tell him nothing, it is torture to Kallen, not information gathering. He is using her to get back at Lelouch pure and simple. Refrain is not a truth serum, it has no truth relaying affects.

Remember, also, that Nunally offered Zero to join her. She would likely offer the same to Kallen, but that does not work for Suzaku.

KoO cannot do as you said, he simply gains governorship over an area. He cannot just make laws to equalize the Britannians and the 11s. Euphemia made that clear in that she had to give up everything to do it. And she was the Vicereign. If she as a royal and vicereign does not have the ability, Suzaku does not.

This is a haluconigen that makes you utterly detached from reality, you are not aware of anything around you. He can ask her whatever he wants, she will not answer him. She will blabber about the happiest time in her memory which falls on, more likely than not, her childhood with her family. Refrain does not break inhibitions. This is the equivalent to cloroforming someone and asking them questions.

Kallen being hooked on Refrain or even injected with it once has about one way of ending assuming no one consuls her out of it: Biting her tongue.

Not to mention there's no guarantee it'll work properly.

It brings back the past (happy times). Kallen's most happiest times are obviously when her brother was still alive and such. If Suzaku uses it that's all he's going to get unless her most recent times with lelouch were really really happy.

They were certainly awkward, maybe even fond, but happy is a stretch.

They'd have to be the TV-censored kind of happy to top her brother and family during their prime.

she did seem happy when he promised he'd save her

but i cant see it happening
i just cant see him injecting her with it (i can see him trying but i cant see him doing it)
either someone walks in
or she turns the table on him and stabs him with it herself (since we may see a lulu flashback seeing a suzaku one could work as they did spend time together as children)

You think Nunnally would happily join the Oobk when she found out LL=Zero and he killed thousands of people in her name(including a brother and sister)?

I half expect Kallen to rip apart the dress at her legs, tie around her forehead, and go Rombo on Suzaku at the sight of Refrain. She did it for Lelouch and it wasn't even targeted at her. I'd be afraid to be in the same room as Kallen and Refrain... especially with a chair right behin her.

Yes and no, she wouldn't join the OoBK but she would enter contact with Lelouch which would facilitate (and likely lessen the bloodshed) of a take over of Japan by the Order. From there she can save her brother.

Or he's using it as a threat.

So? I don't see why Suzaku is getting this flack. He even admits he isn't a great person earlier this season. He is no better than Lelouch and really, never was, so what the hell is the god damn problem?

Suzaku was completely betrayed by Lelouch. Why SHOULD it work for him?

What? Euphemia had NO real power to do ANYTHING by herself. Cornelia was Vicerine of the Area, not Euphemia. Euphie was just a figure head and there for show. WHy do you think she had to go to Schneizel for permission to even let the SAZ be open? Compare that to Nunnally, she didn't need permission. If Suzaku becomes governor of the Area, he can put in place laws.

Not laws that alter the fundamental edicts of the mainland. Oppression of the Numbers is policy. One territory cannot go against that, unless Suzaku intends to declare the whole nation part of the SAZ, which would probably be blocked by the mainland.

Jeez, this is starting to remind me of the episode where Kallen got kidnapped and handed over to Suzuku, where everyone was SURE that he was either A. going to torture her to get info, or B. bring her to Charles to be mindwiped. It turned out to be something completely different. So couldn't we wait to see what happens before making any sorts of judgements?

Becuase this will: Not give him what he wants, not serve any greater good than making him feel better, has no justification, and is based on his own hatred for Lelouch.

When? I also did not mean that Nunally's offer, I was speaking that Nunally's methods do not work for what Suzaku wants.

Cornelia gave Euphemia the title when she told her that she needed a knight, or was about to give her the title. In either case, she did not have the power, nor did Cornelia, who knew of the plan, have the power to do such a thing. She told Euphemia that the only way her idea would work is if she challenged the Emperor herself. Nunally opened the SAZ because it was an already established idea, one that failed utterly, and failed again when Nunally opened it. What chance does Suzaku have when the people he's trying to protect hate him to the core?

I doubt he would have tortured her had Shirley not died.
