she said "I finally took the bull between the horns and said that Captain Taffler was just downstairs and why not go and visit him now? That seemed the right thing to say because I could see a funny look pass through his eyes when I said visit" (Findley 198). Here it is shown that she gives commentary on the physical events but as for the funny look there is no mention as to what it could mean.
