Description: |
This cue begins dark but slowly becomes warmer, leading up to a warm, gentle statement of the Flamingo Road theme as Lane goes to get a drink for Field - this indicates that she is thinking of her relationship with Dan; the last note of the phrase is rudely interrupted by a gunshot (perfectly timed!) |

Analysis: |
The first sonority is quite dissonant (a C triad over a Db triad over an Eb pedal); a passage of parallel major triads leads to C major; this cue is interrupted right before resolving to the tonic |
