Either a brief crescendo stab of music used to enhance the drama of the current situation just before an [[Act Break]] (called a "dramatic sting" when used this way), or a brief comical stab on music to enhance a punchline at the end of a scene (most famously, the so-called "[[Rimshot]]" -- ''ba-dum-bum-ching''). About 95% of TV shows use them.
