Comment (by antoniou79):

 There's an additional (potential) oddity for this interaction/video with
 Aegeus when playing from Bernice's perspective.

 Looking at a youtube playthrough, it seems that after doing the "caress"
 gesture on Aegeus, you are given the chance to switch perspectives. This
 seems to be part of the script that plays this particular video.

 But this is missing from my playthrough via ScummVM. I should not though
 that I've started the chapter from Bernice perspective.

 If this is not an additional bug, I can think of the following potential
 explanations:
 - Maybe this interaction is only available if you previously switched from
 Aegeus to Bernice in the same chapter (the Youtuber did that; they started
 the chapter from Aegeus perspective, and switched to Bernice when she
 first comes into his office) - **This actually sounds very likely, maybe
 @arrowgent knows for sure?**
 - Maybe the youtube playthrough was made with another version of the game

 Timestamped videos from SGF's (blind) playthrough of the game (on Windows
 3.1)
 Choice to switch to Aegeus during the problematic video (time: around
 26:11):

 Earlier interaction, switching from Aegeus to Bernice (time around: 20:38)
