As he talks about light, Graham makes use of plenty of non-verbal gestures and dramatic changes of intonation. Oliver’s reaction, expressed orally, as thoughts to himself, is:How’s my dad meant to compete? The only time I saw him enthral a room was when he gave a talk about the disappearance of a giant sturgeon.

This statement introduces the sub-Universe of Discourse of Oliver’s inner thoughts and imagination and the viewer thus knows that the now unfolding events are Oliver’s recollection of his father’s talk. In contrast, Lloyd’s speech is precise while Graham’s is divertive and vague.

It is most telling that in Lloyd’s discourse there is mention of the absence of light in the deepness of the ocean. As Lloyd delivers his discourse, he receives from a pupil the question “How deep is the ocean?” (46:42–46:43). This already implies the Dicisign that “Lloyd inspires and answers questions about the deepness of the ocean.” His answer to the question is:Seven miles at its deepest point, but on average, six miles as a rule of thumb. But no fish could live down there. There’s no light, of course, and the pressure is far too great. Any human who found themselves at that level, well, they would die immediately. They would implode. They wouldn’t stand a chance. But in answer to your question, the ocean is six miles deep. (46:44–47:07)
