Colonial Mug Collection: A row of mugs sits on the shelf. Each one depicts a human figure: a dark-skinned woman grinning amidst mysterious symbols, a broad-shouldered man shovelling potatoes, and others.
1->55
2
Inland Empire: Perhaps you should break into apartments more often?

You: Tap on the mugs.
5->16

You: "Do you really think it's the same person who put the dead man's clothes in the trash?"
Is this really the same person who put the dead man's clothes in the trash?
5->24
39
You: Recall the Yellow Man mug you found in the Whirling trash container.
5->39
49
You: Move on from the mugs. [Leave.]
5->49
56
You: Whip out your Yellow Man mug and compare.
5->56
6
Colonial Mug Collection: Yes, your broken mug friend would feel very much at home here. The same humour, the same mocking lines...

Kim Kitsuragi: "There's the missing tin soldier," the lieutenant looks at the mugs next to each other. "Whoever lives here might have used the Whirling's container to dump his trash..."
8->35
29
Logic: The owner of this collection could be dumping his trash in the Whirling's container.
9->29
10
You: Cynical slippery bastard.
13
Conceptualization: You ain't gonna change someone's mind by calling them a bastard.
10->13
11
You: I don't think I like the owner of this apartment.
19
Conceptualization: No one's telling you to like him. You might learn something from him, though.
11->19
12
You: Thanks, good to know. I have no opinion on this.
45
Empathy: Anytime.
12->45
46
Kim Kitsuragi: IsKimHere()
13->46
14
Logic: Who knows? Could be, but this 'clothes in the trash' lead doesn't really seem like it's going anywhere. Still, good thing to keep in mind.
34
Logic: You could ask Evrart who this person is? Once you're done here...
14->34
15
Kim Kitsuragi: "I'm beginning to feel better about breaking into this man's apartment."

Colonial Mug Collection: A little ring. Though cheerful, the images on the ceramic make you vaguely uncomfortable.
16->37
17
Empathy: Of course. So very free.
27
Rhetoric: And so *fun*.
17->27
18
Conceptualization: Of course... You slippery bastard.

20->22
44
Empathy: The owner of these mugs doesn't like people of other ethnicities very much.
21->44
26
Conceptualization: It looks like the artist is celebrating diversity, but underneath he's just making fun of these people.
22->26
23->5

Kim Kitsuragi: IsKimHere()
24->30
25
Logic: An interesting little clue. Let's see where this goes. Clues have a way of magically connecting to other clues -- down the road.
25->2
26->10
26->11
57
You: I don't see these as stereotypes. I think they are honest acknowledgements of difference.
The artist must be free to do what he wants. The artist must be free to tell the *truth* about what these guys look like.
26->57
27->46
28
Conceptualization: There's something disdainful in the way the curves and lines of the bodies were drawn.
50
Empathy: The images betray a lack of interest in human beings. They are merely unflattering caricatures.

Kim Kitsuragi: "Who knows?" The lieutenant opens his notebook. "I'm not expecting too much from this *clothes in the trash* lead either way. It might turn out to be some random local matter. But still -- a nice coincidence."

Kim Kitsuragi: The lieutenant picks up one of the mugs, then puts it back down with a look of disdain.
38->15

You: Typical asshole.
41
Empathy: This person is unhappy.
40->41
41->46
43
You: What do I mean *uncomfortable*?
43->20
44->12
44->40
54
You: So what? They can think what they want. This is a free world.
C'mon, it's just a bit of *fun* -- with a pinch of truth. People have the right to make fun of each other in a *free world*.
