Well, if you really really insist...

You're at 130', rhythmically inflating and deflating your counterlung,
marvelling at the beauty of the tropical reef and how all is well with
the world, when all of a sudden a scrubber-eating fish that Rich hasn't
even gotten around to cataloguing yet chews a hole in your counterlung,
turns left at the pipe fitting, and starts chowing down on your
Sofnolime.  This of course isn't a problem, because Farb told you exactly
what to do in this situation, so you unclamp your offboard diluent bottle
and breathe straight off the valve as you head upwards.  You decide to
maybe do a deco stop at a higher ppO2 (George told you you didn't have to
do any deco, but he doesn't do 'breathers, so you're gonna deco anyway). 
In order to get the right mix, you grab your offboard O2 bottle and take
alternate breaths off its valve and the diluent bottle's.  You climb back
aboard, and Ludmilla is so overjoyed at your safe return that she leaps
onto you, breaking every bone in your body.

Well, you asked.
