I think there are two reasons you might be procrastinating on the scene: 1. You are afraid of doing it wrong (in that case follow Lauren Ipsum's advice). 2. It's boring and you don't feel like writing it. If it's the second choice I suggest the following: a. **Remove the scene.** I know it hurts. But something I realized is that progress is not how many words you write, but how many _decisions_ you make for your story. Removing a complete scene is a very big decision. Hence an important one. (But since you said it's a crucial scene, maybe this isn't the case.) b. **Change the scene so it becomes fun/exciting to write.** In the past I procrastinated on various scenes. Later I realized it was because I felt they were cliched/boring. Once I came up with a new and exciting way of writing them I couldn't stop.
