I like the last one there. If you have some brief scene like that firmly in mind and it has several people in it, tell it again from another participant's viewpoint. Each person sees things differently, details and all. Each will hear the words differently and read different things into them. Each will notice different things, too. Some wouldn't note the background sounds at all, while others would be distracted by them and perhaps miss a crucial bit of dialogue and misconstrue something. If there weren't other poeple there, make up a hitherto unknown spectator or eavesdropper.
