- Track 9, At Tangerine Beach, similarly named to track 4, Tangerine Beach, starts with Jack flipping pages in a speedy way that goes nicely with the zig-zagging violins.

- Then he makes his “Yep, that’s all it is!” face. Which is really cool since track 4 ended with him making a very similar face on the line, “He saw it on the television.”

- This part goes on to include this shot of all the newspapers and magazines littered around the lounge the Carter Collapse and Vela Incident papers last appeared during Tangerine Beach, during the doctor visit. The Glamour magazine last appeared just after the transition between Tangerine Beach and Superstar. The Tower of Babel issue of Scientific American last appeared during the opening track, and here we are in the closing track.

- This song ends the album, and so covers the rest of the ensuing action, right up till Danny and Wendy hit the dead end in the labyrinth. Danny even says it aloud at 38:54, “Dead end.” The final fade to silence is at 38:53, and the album contains a few extra seconds of silence.
- Since the album is only 38:43 (or 2323 seconds), it can’t work the same as Redrum Road, where the music could start again right at the end of the last performance, and do three full repeats across the film entire. I mean, we could keep analyzing it that way and see what it gets us, but I think this “Dead end” is meant to signal the end of the “Quick and the Dead” portion of the film. The mirror action is everything between Wendy first scrolling through the All Work and No Play papers, and Jack flipping through them himself.
