Dunno, but he's about to lose on time, and not even out of the opening yet...

I assume he was referring to the fact that it was at high noon.

And a man on the verge of inhaling his face can seldom be serious.

Possibly.  The picture is one of the many mutilations of the well-known 1963 photograph by Julian Wasser of Marcel Duchamp and Eve Babitz. The photo was a staged at the Pasadena Museum of Art where Duchamp was present for a retrospective of his artwork.  His famous sculpture, “The Bride Stripped Bare by her Bachelors, Even,” gone in the representation above, appeared prominently in the background of the photograph.  The real photo can be seen here.
