About the Scene: 
Our main character is on her last nerve, she just got fired from a job and she's walking through the street upset about all the beautiful people she passes, with their jobs, their lovers, etc etc. She get's so upset she shouts to the sky - something in the vein of "Can't I catch a fucking break!" ---but because she's a wizard (unbeknownst to her) she bewitches the street into a song and dance number (think: beetlejuice)- she obliviously thinks she has stumbled into a flash mob- but the comedy here is that ordinary people are busting out amazing dance moves (there faces are not in synch with their bodies) and she is trying to join in.
