When this happens to me, I think it’s a bit of a mental decision between “They’re going to explain it, it’s meant to be mysterious now.” and “They explained it poorly”.

Biggest pet peeve is when the plot centers on one key character that people only talk about, and you never see. Or when one key piece of information is muttered in a heavy accent during five other things happening.

I of course love the former. I’ve been burnt by the latter many times, like “Oh, I should’ve rewound the movie.”

The scene in question is the opening scene of the film. It is fully explained pretty early in the second act. Definitely intended to be the "mysterious" option in this case.
