“Mentally ill” isn’t the best term, but one of the characters is turning, and is very aggressive towards everyone.

22mins 40 seconds during the fibreoptic call, the screen flashes several times and fills with static. Full-screen flashes. Stops after 30 seconds or so. 24 minutes in whilst swimming through the tunnel there are 2 or 3 isolated flashes of a camera as someone is taking photos underwater.
