Cup and Saucer of coffee

A porcelain cup and its matching saucer holding black coffee, delivered to Duggan by Romana in the Parisian brasserie to rouse him from sleep. The steam rises sharply as Duggan’s first sip serves not as refreshment but as the spark for confrontation—he slams the cup down in violent reaction, shattering both cup and saucer across the tabletop. The fractured porcelain mirrors his erupting paranoia about the Mona Lisa theft, the spilled coffee staining the cloth as their plan unravels.
