Explanation / Answer

Answer: These are the scenes:

1. The final section shows the whaling company urging survivors to lie about what happened, for fear that insurance carriers won't cover them if they hear that a whale is capable of destroying a huge ship.

2. The film sets it within the broader context of a fossil fuel industry—based on whale oil—that's driven by profit regardless of morality or ethics, on the eve of the switch to land based oil extraction. A revolution looms over the world of the film, which puts the trials of these characters into sharp relief—as if underlining the futility of their suffering in the grander scheme of things.
