    Suspense plays a vital role in captivating the audience's interest, attention, and inquisitiveness that assists in evoking the desired response from them. The chief aim of employing such a technique (that has its various forms like dramatic irony, flashback, special effects, etc.) is to intensify the situation through a sudden turn of events and leaving the audience uncertain that what would happen next in the plot.

    In the given passage, 'foreshadowing' is the kind of suspense technique that has been employed by the screenwriter to elevate the curiosity of the audience and keeping their interest intact till end. 'Foreshadowing' involves the indication, reflection or a kind of warning of the unexpected upcoming event that leaves the readers tensed and guessing what would happen forth. In the given example, the 'ticking clocks' indicates the unanticipated future events in which 'Doc Brown finds himself ... perilously far above a massive clock tower'. Thus, option C is the correct answer.
