maybe he was saying, "LET ME OUT, I WANT OT BE FREE!!!!!" because that's what we humans do, we take him out of the wild and put him in a small enclosure because we "think" we heard him imitating human speech. Can I ask a dumb question? How did the whale learn human speech if most of it's early life was in the wild, when the vocal cords develop, devoid of human contact? he was probably born with a birth defect and a muscle or extra piece of flesh is hitting hit vocal cords, I've seen it happen in a puppy once. It doesn't harm them just makes them sound funny.
...I forgot how I got here but everyone seems to be heading off in that direction. I hope someone brought food. I have a feeling this is going to be a long journey................
