Poirot is seen placing a card with the words "Mlle. Marie Marvelle." on top of the flowers he has brought with him to the apartment before putting final touches to the tea table.
When he gazes at the bouquet before he picks it up later on, the card is nowhere to be seen.
Captain Hastings: You know, you say you have the particular sensitivity to women and all that, Poirot. It seems to me that all you did for Mrs. Marvelle is to lose her her husband.
Hercule Poirot: A blackmailing, adulterous husband who is also the thief. That is such a great loss, Hastings?
