You can reach a rather odd ending by using the toilet before James enters:
>save. sit on toilet. poop. flush toilet. x poop. take poop. z. restore.
Or you can grab the pills before James arrives and have the game fail to come to a conclusion:
>open cabinet. take pills. x pills. x cabinet. x sink. x toilet. x james.
>w. s. restore.
Surprisingly, the best option seems to do nothing significant at all:

Note 1: This entry was MUCH belated, by possibly as much as a month.
Note 2: The vial is misspelt as "vile"; use the misspelling.
Note 3: You cannot "enter" the catapult/trebuchet, but you can "get in" it.
Note 4: If you get in the catapult without drinking the Viagra first, then you'll die.
>x me. x plane. x soldier. x vile. x flowers. x window. x catapult.
>take plane. throw it at soldier. take vile. drink it. get in catapult.
