A text overlay provides the humorous context that they are high and commuting to 'class at shiz,' a fictional university from the musical.

The structural pattern this video runs on
Framework
The Mundane Fantasia
To create humor by placing a fantastical or absurd character within a completely normal, everyday environment and having them act as if it's perfectly natural, with the premise explained via on-screen text.
The Grounding Context
To establish a mundane, everyday setting through an initial visual shot, creating a baseline of normalcy that will contrast with the coming absurdity.
The Premise Payoff
To transition the camera to reveal a subject who visually embodies the absurd premise from the hook, delivering the core visual punchline through stark juxtaposition.
The Immersive Performance
To have the subject perform actions consistent with the absurd premise, fully committing to the character or scenario and sustaining the joke beyond a simple static reveal.
