[Once Maul is stabilized as much he's going to be in the water, he turns towards the attention of how to get out of here. This is clearly a machination of the Pthumerians, which means he's meant to interact with another person in some capacity. It doesn't take too long for him figure out he's supposed work with the other man in order to escape this torture.
When Lance gestures towards the top of the ice, at first he shakes his head. He already tried that and it didn't work. But they're running out of air fast and their options are limited. Maybe their combined strength will allow them to break through. Venge swims underneath Maul and pushes him up towards the ice. Clamping his legs down on either side of the Maalraas like he's riding his Nightmare Steed, he begins to push upwards, hoping that at least a small hole can be created so they'll be able to breathe.]
