Interruption

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lapse

'interruption' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for lapse that I've seen before include "Untypical mistake" , "Temporary failure of judgment or concentration" , "Momentary mistake" , "Slip-up" , "unguarded moment" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
