That particular scene is also one (of four that I’ve found so far) of the 
Easter egg appearances of Colbert in the opening. As the camera is “passing 
through” the latticed window and the focus clears, Stephen can be seen doing 
the “pull the tablecloth out from under the dinnerware” trick on the second 
floor of GCT on the far right of the screen.

I am struck but how repetitive and low-energy this theme is. I'm not a fan 
of LSwSC but not because of any large, glaring issues. Just lots of little 
ones that kind of "pile up." 

 

One of the shots is a sped-up scene of commuters in Grand Central Terminal... 
an almost exact duplicate of a shot in Jimmy Fallon's opening sequence.
