The Recurring Coffee Cup Question, an answer at last?

snipped:
COLLYNS: According to the timeline, just about 5:20. They left the casino 10 minutes before, it's very close by. At 8:35 is when Joran van der Sloot left the room alone with two empty coffee cups.
VAN SUSTEREN: Leaves with two empties?
COLLYNS: He comes out with two empty coffee cups. The surveillance video, there's a camera located right above the doorway. He was filmed clearly leaving with two empty coffee cups.
VAN SUSTEREN: Where did they come from? Is there video of him leaving and getting coffee?
COLLYNS: He claims he left to buy coffee, but he came back with the same empty coffee cups. Police say this was after the murder happened. The theory originally was he went to buy coffee, according to what he said, and returned to the room to find Stephany using his computer, and that's when the argument and the fight ensued.
And of course, that resulted in her murder. It appears that was a lie.
Not quite an answer yet to the coffee cups because how did he get the coffee cups to the room in the first place. All reports coming out of Peru stated he left to get the coffee and bread around 8:00 AM and returned at 8:20 AM. This info had to be backed with something as it was repeated over and over again and the fact that he was wearing the white shirt.
Collyns really never answered Greta's questions: "where did the coffee come from and is there video?"
Jean C even reported where he bought the coffee, although she had the wrong place and later in the day pointed out where he bought the coffee.
