I know to a certainty that the Gulfstream is ILG-only (at least for the time being), and I'm fairly sure they want Lear guys in ILG as well (incidentally, they just advertised for a Lear F/O, and imho it might not be a bad deal if you don't mind living in ILG. I think it's pretty much the director's personal plane at this point.)

I have never been extended without consent, but I know the guy who said above that he had been and he's not one to make things up (unless it involves a pizza delivery). If they attempted to extend me without consent I would buy a plane ticket home and let them figure it out.

Happy to help, good luck.
To be fair, I was only extended once against my will, but it was the day after Christmas, after they changed our rotations a week before Thanksgiving. As a bonus, the HF was INOP, so we had to cancel the trip anyways. I did get the opportunity to polish off a bottle of Maker's with our buddy McG, so not a total loss.
