There are many diegetic and or non diegetic scenes in this movie like: the sound from the radio in the background also the back ground music in the sad scene also you could hear the noises all around the room like when he dropped his phone and the clicking one his keyboard and the cutting and pulling on the cello-tape.

parallel sounds and contrapuntal,

• parallel sound matches the action,
• Contrapuntal sound does not match the action, 

The moment the music starts the action gets a lot more intense and dramatic. The crosscutting to a calm atmosphere creates a contradicting effect, during the first attack we can hear the music of jaws. This signals that something bad and or scary will happen.

The Sound bridge helps to create a smooth transition between one scene to the other. The sound 'bridges' the two scenes.


In this scene he starts to remember a police scene that  merges into the scene making it into the sound bridge of 2 scenes.
