[LSJ] One more time, about Dark Influences

Sorry, I know this was probably answered somewhere official before, but I am still confused. Situation: Methuselah A plays Govern the Unaligned. Methuselah B plays Dark Influences to cancel the Govern and puts DarkI into play. Which of the following statements is true about Dark Influences, at some point later in the game? 1) *Any* Methuselah plays Scouting Mission. *Any* other Methuselah plays Direct Intervention. The Direct Intervention is canceled, and the Dark Influences is burned. 2) Methuselah B plays Scouting Mission. Any other Methuselah plays Direct Intervention. The Scouting Mission is canceled, and the Dark Influences stays in play. Thank you.

I have a clarifaction to ask: > Botched Move (if successful) Botched Move cancels a card... maybe. But it would seem that dark influences couldn't cancel it _if successful_ ... since at that point Botched move is already in the middle of resolving. You couldn't DI a botched move _after_ you saw it was successful, and it would seem it wouldn't work that way for Dark Influences effect either. So the question is: does Botched move trigger Dark influences at all? And if so, is it indeed immediately?
