Another glimpse into Chelsea's newly-revealed obsession with Peter. Kinda makes you wonder how long she's been watching him like this.
An interesting little bit is the cliche "binocular view" effect used up there. In reality looking through a binocular actually looks like a single circle -- because of how your eyes focus through both sides at once and merge into one solid view -- so I always wondered where the idea came from of having two connected circles in silhouette representing it. It's just another one of those things that makes no real logical sense but is widely accepted as the norm for storytelling purposes, I suppose.

Well, if Chelsea hopes to get these findings published, she needs to be accurate.
And I think the binocular-view is like that just so people immediately recognize what's going on. Point-of-view shots can be tricky, since unless the audience immediately perceives what's happening, it just leads to confusion (shoot, the first such shots actually had little cards to tell the audience what they're about to see. Movie history trivia for ya :P). With this, people get it immediately and move on (especially all those people who are rather dim and/or have never looked through binoculars before).
Although I've seen at least a couple movies that show it right (as one circle), I can't for the life of me remember what they are right now.

Bugs Bunny, actually. Warner Bros started it and everyone else kinda tagged along. It was to differentiate it from the spyglass view that was a single circle. Sadly, using either would result in the same image, just with some depth from the binoculars.
Chelsea needs to get a hobby that doesn't involve Peter.

Two possibilities I see here:
1. Chelsea is head-over-tail fallen for Peter, but doesn't want anyone to know about and is too shy to actually say anything *nice* to him
2. Chelsea has been hired by someone else (mystery admirer girl??) to spy on Peter.
Why else would she have all this equipment and know just where to find Peter when he's off doing stuff with his friends?
