Object
Geordi's Drink (Ten-Forward Glass)
A small, clear drinking glass cradled at the edge of the Ten-Forward table, containing a half-finished, unremarked drink. Light skims its rim and faint condensation dots the surface; Geordi fingers the glass during the farewell, the vessel resting between moments of numb silence and the fierce, wordless hug he gives Data. The glass functions as a physical anchor for Geordi's stunned, angry state, lingering as other voices and tensions encroach on the intimacy of the moment.

Purpose
To contain and deliver synthehol for on-site consumption during social interaction in Ten-Forward.
Significance
Functions as an emotional anchor and prop, externalizing Geordi's attempt to drown romantic shame; its presence frames his vulnerability and catalyzes Guinan's blunt, corrective counsel that redirects his behavior and plants an emotional seed for later development.
