Eye-line match is when we see the women playing the piano look at the puppet police fighting the puppet black males and we are then shown the fighting after we see a reaction shot which captures her reaction to the violence which we could infer as in shock due to her gobsmacked facial expression and sort of trying to avoid the violence by going into a sort of ducking position which connotes fear towards the violence and she would be gobsmacked because she appears privileged due to her expensive looking costume and wouldn't be used to violence because of her privileges. The use of the prop of the button which is attached to the white policemen helps exaggerate police brutality as we are presented with the policeman hitting the black male in the head which isn't right from the policeman as it is only to be used as self defence and not as a weapon to start fights; this helps create sympathy towards black people.
We see an eye-line match of the two blackface puppets taking a television which we can infer as stolen as we then see a reaction shot of the women playing the piano and we again see her take a double take and the close up shot of the women's face and she looks very shocked referring to how she isn't used to seeing such acts and by the shot including two black males links to stereotypes and racial profiling of black people.
The two shot of the woman and Dizzie Rascal shows us the look on black people as entertainers and it makes the woman appear very big compared to Dizzie Rascal which could refer to society and how black people are seen as little and used for entertainment.
