Essex has just left Hobbiton.

But, Denethor has totally lost his mind at this point and was about to kill his son, hence Gandalf's emergency and no time to dilly-daddle.
and jackson brought this 'madness' forward in time in his movie, so he could show Gandalf taking control of the city at that time. Hence we have him striking out and asserting his authority at this moment in time. I don't particularly enjoy this scene either, just trying to put in a counter point for discussion that ties in (loosely) with Tolkien's text.
