Portrait shot in a living room in the evening with curtains closed and low lighting. On a wooden table in the foreground sits a vintage Martini glass, a coupe shape with gold rim, with alcohol nearly to the rim and a gold cocktail stick spearing three green olives. Our angle showing the top of the glass and the side shows the cocktail stick splitting in two, refracting to show two sets of three olives. The top film of liquid in the glass also reflects a TV in the background, out of focus and set in a bay window surrounded by closed dark curtains. Wooden flooring fills the gap between glass and TV.
"So, Mark, are you having a sports and alcohol kind of evening?"
"Yes, narrative device questioner. I am."
