Scene Beats in The Rabbit Hole A story can change in an instant, suck the air out of the room, or raise the tension to its boiling point. What are those moments though and why are they so important? Easy, those are scene beats and they prevent the story from growing dull and coming to an unsatisfactory plot point as there was little climax to that point.

To be brutally honest I feel like Cat On a Hot Tin Roof has gotten off to a slow start, however it is a classic and I have high hopes for the rest of the story. I feel as if the setup of the family gathering is not terribly interesting, right now, but may make for interesting revelations and conflict in the future.
