The script is built around having Freddie periodically imagine things in a fairly obvious way, almost all the scenes were cut except the nude dancing one. However, I think the phone call is just supposed to be weird and unexplainable, a moment where the superstitious elements of the premise poke their head up mysteriously for a moment, maybe there was some cosmic connection between them. PTA does this often, he'll set up an atheistic, earthly framework to a story and then drop divine details here and there that challenge it.
