This is the first of what I like to call the "crack dream" episodes, though technically speaking I supose it's not really a dream. I really love the way these sorts of scenes are handled throughout the show, always a little bit strange, with the dark stages and the spotlights and people appearing and disappearing all over the place. The darkness and the empty Zocalo always get to me, because it's just so wrong for there to be no people around.

That's very true! It is reminiscent of Sheridan's dream, and the Inquisitor episode as well.
