So subtext we know. But what do you call the message or meaning that's right there on the surface, completely open and obvious? They never talk about that. What do you call what's above the subtext? 
Ted: The text. 
Fred: OK, that's right, but they never talk about that.

Like a lightning bolt, there is a post of clarity and lucidity!  Did you stop drinking?  Why?  Are you on some sort of medication not compatible with alcohol?
