| Description: |
A bluesy statement of the Flamingo Road theme as Dan talks with Lane; a deceptive arrival leads to a rising sequence building up to the climax of the scene (repeating the last part of the theme to extend it); this is the first time we have heard this theme since the opening title sequence; it represents success, which Lane is about to achieve with Dan |
| On-screen: |
Dan buys some cold drinks |
