I Drank What?

As it finally shifted, they saw that the room inside was like the upside-down room in Labyrinth http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lr0po1J5LA1qlem2bo1_500.jpg.
"The Escher room" Tregard's disembodied voice announced.

"This is that M.C. Escher painting, I think." Jacky said.
"You know it?" Jay asked.
"I've seen it a few times. I don't really know it well enough to help out, here. Sorry." Jacky replied. He started rummaging through his pockets, before pulling out some lint.
"What's the lint for?" Jaxx asked.
"I'm going to see which way down is." Jacky said, dropping the lint. The lint went, from his perspective, up. But before it hit the "ceiling", it took a sharp left turn and landed on the left side wall.
"Well, um..." Jacky said, thinking.
"Oh wow." Alex said. "What now?"
Jacky paused before turning to the group.
"Bare with me on this, but..." Jacky said. He jumped off the edge of their platform, falling straight down on the ground below. He got up painfully.
"Well. Scientifically speaking, gravity is pretty screwed up." Jacky said. "Make of that what you will."
"Can you see a door down there?" Jay asked.
"No..." Jacky said. "I see

"No..." Jacky said. "I see more stairs. From what I gather it looks like each set of stairs has its own gravity. Oh well I guess we should keep walking till we find a door." Jay looked at the others and said, "Ok gang lets get going. We need to find that door." Jaxx said, "I'll go first Jay dude. So I can catch you all if you like need help." Jay nodded as he said, "Good idea Jaxx." Jaxx jumped off the edge near Jacky and landed like some kind of gardening superhero. Jaxx caught Evelina and Jade as they went down. However, since the guys didn't want any help they landed a little hard and fell on their butts. Evelina smirked as she muttered to Jade, "Nothing like macho pride to keep a woman entertained." Jade chuckled as she said, "Yeah."
Jacky led the crew down a series of stair cases that twisted and turned. It wasn't long before they were upside down on the ceiling and could clearly see the door where they came from. Jamie asked, "So how is this even possible?" Artemis replied, "Elementary my dear boy. It looks like we are in a realm with pocket dimensions." Jamie said, "How does that work?" Artemis replied. Imagine you are in a room pull of giant bubbles. Each bubble has a similar gravity but is positioned just a little differently. Now imagine those bubbles put in an ordinary room. Of course the technology to even create such a Phenom is beyond us." Jamie though about what Artemis said as he replied, "Oh I see." Jaxx looked at Artemis who was proud of his theory and said, "You know bro, When you open your mouth this weird alien language comes out." Evelina giggled as she tried to hide it with her hands. Artemis glared at Jaxx and said, "You sir are a neanderthal." Jaxx smiled as he replied, "Thanx Arty dude. I am kinda tall." Evelina's laughter got a bit louder as she pulled Jaxx away from Artemis.
Suddenly Jacky stopped as he said, "I found something." The crew walked up near Jacky and saw a door no bigger than two feet high. Next to the door was a small table with a clear potion bottle containing a pink liquid. Attached to the bottle was a small labeled tag that read "DRINK ME." Jaxx looked at the crew and said, "So what now?
