During the flashback scene with Julia, you can see a vial of bloody eye on the stand by the flower.

Controversy
Question:
Who's vial of bloody eye is on the stand over the window?
Answer:
We do not know who's vial it is. However, we do know that the stand is in Julia's apartment. Most people speculate that the vial actually belongs to Vicious and that it was one of the many deciding factors that Julia left him for Spike. The other possibility is that Julia or Vicious were selling the bloody eye for the syndicate.
