He just wants to catch the tiny dolph and give it scritches and the tiny dolph is so happy and gosh.. Is the diver Hector? Is this Hector and his Dolphin?

@Miffy fwiw he also designed all the Kaiju in Pacific Rim, which are a lot less Speculative Biology Porn than Expedition, but are nontheless very pretty to look at.
@Miffy Have you read Expedition
