Unfortunately, Jamil is in fact present at the scene in the form of Nova Crescent, and he feels his soul leave his body when he sees what Kalim brought back. It is definitely an antique. A one-of-a-kind heirloom antique, in fact, and one Jamil had begged Kalim not to bring to the penthouse precisely to avoid this exact scenario.

Even worse, Nova Crescent can't possibly say anything about that without blowing his cover. His only recourse is to be an asshole about it, and he does so by suddenly appearing to pluck the drum right out of Kalim's outstretched hands.
