I took a walk to the new store Ted was opening. On the way there, I passed through every other business on the street -- they all had side doors that connected them to each other in a big chain. Some of the store owners gave me dirty looks, but I pressed onward.
Eventually I reached Ted's store. I had to go outside to get to it -- it was its own building, not connected to anything else. Ted was there, but he was busy running about, getting everything ready. The interior was pure white. The store was very sparse, with 3 or 4 display racks. The first display was a shelf of superhero comics. On the reverse side was a random assortment of items: one hardcover book, some melted candles, and a bunch of Barbie dolls with misshapen heads. On the other side of the room was a cooler with some beverages, and a table holding more random items (I seem to recall a faberge egg). There were some t-shirts behind the counter.
At this point, I had an idea to film someone walking out of the store, for a movie I was making. So I set up all this equipment on a bridge that overlooked Ted's store. Then my dream shifted to the finished product of my efforts: a music video which featured Ted's store cracking down the middle and dissolving, leaving a dance floor with a bunch of animated dancing people going crazy.
