Why don't you stay
and make your home here?

Well, that's a good question.

I guess the reason is that
Virdon's got an itch in his feet...

...and I got rocks in my head,
which is why I go along.

We're taking a survey of the far side
of every hill on the horizon.

I'd like to give you a better answer,
but I can't think of one.

Daughter.

Amy...

...will you say goodbye?

No. You're a stranger
from another world.

I don't know how to talk to men
from another world.

I'm sorry Amy's upset.

I expected her to be.
I know my daughter.

- I wish you well.
- Thank you for everything, Talbert.

You ready?

Let's go.

- Bye.
- Bye.

Maybe they will come back someday.

No.

Never.

All right. Move along. Move along.

I'm just transferring these two
to the work force in the next village.

Father...

...what's wrong?

It's nothing.

I'm just a little tired.

Little tired.

If I were only young and strong again.

Urko, a message from Trion.

The troopers report
the humans have sleeping sickness.

I'll do better next time.

Urko, we have a bet.
The best two of three!

I haven't got time to play games.

What's the matter, Galen?
You hear something?

- Not yet.
- Expecting company?

Trouble.

What is this, crystal-ball time?
Let us in on it.

What's the matter?
Something's bothering you.

You are.

- I don't like what you did.
- When?

When I joined up with you two...

...I knew that I would have to face
the same dangers that you face.

In fact, Urko has probably
told his gorillas...

...that I am first priority
on his death list.

With my own people, I'm a renegade.

I accept that.

But I did think at least...

...that we would
try to protect each other.

Hey, who's not protecting what?
Or did I miss something?

Galen, I still don't understand
what it is.

If you tell me what it is,
I'll correct it if I can.

You can't put water
back into a broken bottle.

Time and time again
you have cautioned us...

...that we must be very careful
not to tell anyone about ourselves.

Amy.

Amy.

I'm in love with you.

Amy, you met me one week ago,
you'll forget me in two.

Will you forget me?

No.

Alan...

...take me with you, please?
- I can't.

- I've told you why.
- You're married.

I don't believe you! You're lying.

Amy...

...now listen.

I'm a stranger here.
I come from a world...

...that's very difficult to explain.
It's this world but in a different time.

A long, long time ago.
Now, you must not tell anyone...

...but I want you to understand.

Where I come from...

...where I hope to return someday...

...in that world, I do have a family.

Lies!

There is no other world!

First, you made her angry.

Then you told her who we are.

Not only did you trust her
with your life...

...but you trusted her with ours.

You're right, Galen.
I shouldn't have told her.

She...

Well, she was hurt.

I wanted to make her understand
why I couldn't stay.

That's not an excuse, that's...

I'd just like you to know why.

I am truly sorry.

I didn't think that you meant
any harm.

It just did seem like such
a needless risk to take.

It was.

Chalk it up to...

...the fact that I'm only a human.
- Oh, yes.

Sometimes...

...I forget...

...that humans can't help
the weaknesses they have.

Father!

Father!

Order. Order.

Please come to order!

You babble on
like frightened humans.

There is much at stake here, Zaius.

Our historians have brought this
to my attention.

In the early part of the Ornan period...

...a fever, which struck
only the human population...

...killed several hundred
in a section of the rural zone.

The entire sector became barren
for years afterwards.

I am aware of the possible
loss of goods and labor.

- I have ordered Trion quarantined.
- Quarantined? Burn it!

Before we consider
any such measures, Urko...

...our chief medical officer, Zoran,
has something to say.

Members of the council...

...I have done considerable research
in the diseases of the lower species.

- I have certain theories of treatment...
- Theories?!

Excuses to waste time and resources
on intellectual games.

I intend to test my theories in Trion.

The entire labor force is threatened,
and he wants to test theories!

Trion is quite isolated.

With the quarantine,
the risk is reduced greatly.

If I can save Trion,
we need fear this fever never again!

Zero loss of labor and goods
in the future.

- Lf you can save Trion!
- Vote! Vote!

Those in favor of allowing Zoran
to proceed to Trion...

- Aye.
- No!

So be it.

I will be at Trion
to enforce the quarantine...

...and if you fail...

You will not regret your faith in me.

Well, good morning, friend.

- Hey.
- I'm sorry, sir.

- You're from Trion.
- You're the coal carrier.

- Not anymore.
- What do you mean?

I was lucky.
I was outside the village.

Guards let no one in, no one out.

- A man was shot.
- What are you talking about?

It's quarantined. A plague.

I was told many are dead
and more will die. Many more.

- Do you know the names of the dead?
- Nothing. Nothing.

I was spared.
Even a name could carry the fever.

Now wait a minute! Wait!

Guy doesn't have to be a mind reader
to figure out what you're thinking.

Tell him that it makes no sense to go
waltzing into a plague-ridden village.

If you did go back,
what good could you do?

I don't know.

But what if we were the ones
who started it?

What if we were carrying some virus,
harmless to us but deadly to them?

If you went, isn't there a possibility
you could catch the fever too?

Yes, there is, if we didn't get shot
trying to get in.

Come on, Alan, this makes no sense.

Pete, we've gotta try.

We've got to at least
try to help them.

Did I say we didn't at least have to try?
All right, we'll try. I'm in. I'm in!

Now, look, you just wait one minute!
Now you just wait!

Are you planning to include me in
on this trip back to Trion?

Yes, I figured...

- I hoped we would stay together.
- But we've just been through all that!

Just because that girl is in love
with you, should I risk my life?

No.

There's no reason at all for that.

Should you risk your life
by going back there?

But you stubbornly insist upon
doing it, don't you?

I am getting to be
no better than a human.

Come on, let's go!

What are you doing back here?
Haven't you heard there's fever?

We know about the problem
and would like to help.

The council has sent the chief physician.
Now go back!

- All we want is to...
- I have orders to kill anyone...

...that crosses the quarantine line!
Now move!

Look, look!

Stagnant water.

- And mosquitoes!
- Yeah, come on.

Help me. Please.

- No question about it.
- Malaria.

Okay, let's get started.

- Alan!
- Amy.

My father... My father is dead.

Amy, I'm so sorry.

Amy, how do you feel?

I'm fine.

I'm very tired, but I'm not sick.

All right, listen to me. All of you.

Come in here and listen.

Hurry, people. Please.
There's no time to lose. Closer.

All right.

The first thing, we've gotta
bury the dead immediately.

If we don't, we'll be fighting fever
and dysentery and worse.

We've gotta set fires, make smoke
to keep away the mosquitoes.

A treatment center's gotta be set up
right way.

Work parties have to be organized.
Everyone who is...

Silence!

- You. Who are you?
- Just a man trying to help.

I am Zoran. Chief medical officer
of the Supreme Council.

This is my assistant, Inta.
I have complete authority here now.

We're happy to see you.
Perhaps we can work together.

A pit will be dug at once.

It will be filled with water.

And I will add certain medications.

Everyone will immerse themselves.
Each one of you will be bled...

...the amount determined
by your size and age.

And there will be no physical contact
between men and women...

...until this disease is under control.

You seem to have a talent
for organizing.

You'll supervise the digging
of the pit. Inta!

- You're whistling Dixie, doc.
- I'm whistling?

I shall speak more clearly.

You still hear it? Is there
something wrong with your ears?

- No, what I'm saying...
- What he is suggesting, sir...

...is that this particular disease,
with which they are very familiar...

...does demand special treatment.

Who are you?
What are you doing here?

I'm just transferring these two humans
to another farm.

Listen to them, sir.
They are more intelligent than most.

- So you're familiar with this disease?
- It's malaria.

How clever.
He even has a name for it!

Inta, call the guards.
I haven't the time to fool with him.

- Please. The guards aren't necessary.
- Sir.

You see, malaria means "bad air."

Like the type you find around those
stagnant pools that we passed.

You see, sir...

...the mosquitoes that live around that
stagnant water carry the disease.

- It's communicated by their sting.
- That is enough!

I don't know whether to have you shot
for stupidity or hanged for insolence.

Germs flying through the air
on the backs of insects.

Disease of the lower species
are transmitted from bodily contact!

This one isn't.

- You are challenging my word.
- Sir, he did not mean to be insolent.

Like most humans, fear puts
foolish words in their mouths.

- I have a quick cure for that.
- But they do both know...

...something about medicine.
- That is impossible!

- Arrest these two!
- Arrest them?

I'll shoot them!

They've crossed the quarantine line.

- As you please.
- I protest!

Has he had bodily contact with
the lower species? He has malaria.

What is he saying? What is malaria?

You said the fever strikes
only humans. Explain!

I can't.

I can't explain! I can't!

Neesa.

Neesa's dead.

You dare tell that to Urko?

I want guards at that end of the road
and more guards at that end.

Watch closely. If anyone tries to escape
from the village, shoot them!

- Now move out!
- Urko.

- Think he'll come into the village?
- I don't know. Does it matter?

- Only if you wanna stay alive.
- Maybe we could get away...

...before Urko has guards
posted everywhere.

Look, Galen. You were right
about us getting into trouble.

And you're probably right
that we should leave now.

But you won't.

- And you, Pete?
- I know it sounds silly.

It sounds so silly, I won't even say it.
You know the answer.

I know the answer.
I knew it before I asked. I always do.

I always disagree,
and I always go along.

But maybe I'm sick... In the head.

Fire! Fire! Purification by fire!
That's the only course left to us!

The situation is different now.
Apes are being threatened!

Please.

We must calm ourselves
and think rationally.

But an ape has died, Zaius!
It's no longer a minor problem.

You and your theories.
He ought to be burned!

Urko, you are out of order!

I suggest we hear Zoran's appraisal
of the situation.

I agree. He has promised us success.

Upon my arrival in Trion,
I discovered that the fever...

...was not of the Ornan variety,
as related in the textbooks.

I made a discovery of
a rare disease called "malaria"...

...obviously fatal to apes
and to humans.

And obviously not transmitted
through bodily contact.

Then how, Zoran?

I have reason to believe that the disease
grows in stagnant pools of water...

...and is introduced into
the bloodstream by the bite of...

...mosquitoes.

Zoran...

...are you aware of what
you're asking us to believe?

- You can't be serious!
- He's got the fever himself.

There are such pools of
stagnant water in Trion.

And humans and your soldiers
were exposed to it.

And what do you propose
we do now?

Well, I need several hours to
further reappraise the situation.

I will not back down to a mosquito!

Urko, this disease is fatal
to our people.

We should use this situation
to develop a cure.

Yes.

Perhaps there's a positive side to this.

We can experiment with the humans.
Even if we lost an entire village...

...if an ape cure was developed,
it would be worth it.

Historically, medicine progresses
because of such experimentation.

Yes.

I believe we should use
this opportunity.

So be it.

You will report to us.

Yes, Zaius.

You're very good, ladies. Very good.

- What are they doing?
- Protective masks and gloves.

We have to send a work crew
to drain off the stagnant water.

I am in a difficult position
with the council.

I have told them
your mosquito theory.

In order to save you from punishment,
should we fail...

...I told them that the theory
was my own.

- You're very generous.
- No, not entirely.

You see, if I had told them
I heard it from you...

...they would have asked who
you were, how you knew this.

Urko would be particularly
interested and curious...

...about humans who know
more than they should.

I do hope you know about this disease.

- Have we been wrong yet?
- You provided a diagnosis and a name.

Right or wrong,
it adds up to very little.

- What about treatment?
- There is a treatment. It's quinine.

It's extracted from the bark
of a tree called the "cinchona."

I've never heard of it.

There's a heavily wooded area
where a cinchona could grow.

If we're lucky,
you will get a chance to see one.

Down through here.
Watch the bridge.

This swamp's gotta be drained.

Right here.

Remember, no part
of your body exposed.

Good luck, Galen.
The rest of you, come on.

Quick, everybody put their mask on.

- Running away?
- No, the cure for the disease...

...is in the bark of a tree.
We believe...

"We believe"?
What do you mean, "we"?

I thought you had
the sole authority here.

I am the sole authority here.
I described the tree to them, and we...

They believe it can be found
in the forest.

Why do you cover your faces?
What are you afraid of?

Mosquitoes.

There are no mosquitoes here.

Missed.

Albino mosquitoes. All white.
Very hard to see.

- It could be.
- Yeah, it could be.

Let's go.

It could be. It's bitter enough.

- I'd feel a lot better if we were sure.
- So do I.

- Terrible.
- That's what I learned as a kid.

All good medicine tastes terrible.

- But will it cure the fever?
- It won't if we just stand around.

Move over here. Take as much bark
as you can, but quick.

Everybody, come here.
We gotta move fast.

Get rocks, flat stones.

We gotta grind this bark into powder
as quickly as we can.

- Any more deaths?
- One.

- Any more illnesses?
- Two more sick.

Amy.

Amy. Amy.

I'm sorry. I wanted to help.

I know. I know.
Honey, it's all right, just don't worry.

Amy, look, we found what
we were looking for.

But you gotta hang on.
You gotta fight it. Okay?

Thattaboy. Come on.

That's it. Good. Good. Okay.

Drink this now. Come on, drink it.

I know. I know.
Come on, try it again.

Alan, Galen's back.

Another time, another world.

Don't go back.

I love you. I love you!

Tell me... Tell me the truth.

I love you. Don't go back.

Don't leave me. Don't leave me.

- The swamp has been drained.
- Good work, Galen.

Another time... This world...

- Another world.
- Another world?

Don't go back. Don't go back.

Don't go back.

Doctor Zoran! Doctor Zoran,
come quick to the upper road.

Hurry, hurry. Kava's sick, he's dying.

Urko, Urko, Kava is sick.
We'll all catch the shaking sickness.

Now we'll see, doctor.

Now we'll see
if the council still believes in you.

This village will burn,
and everyone in it. Everyone.

Urko, I promise you
that I will take care of it.

You make empty promises
and my troops are dying.

Believe me. Believe me.
I have the means to cure him.

This is a new medicine.
A new medication.

It's made from the bark of a tree
which I looked for and found in time.

You will not experiment
with my troops.

Now. Burn the village now
before we are all destroyed.

- No, we are making progress!
- This medication, Zoran...

...is it effective?
- Yes, it will work.

- It will take time...
- There is no more time.

How many must die before
you do what must be done?

- I demand a vote.
- You will have your vote, Urko.

No, no more talking.

I sometimes wonder which you fear
most, death or a few words of reason.

You. I fear you. All of you.
Listening to a fool.

Zoran has found a medication.

Perhaps it will work, perhaps not.
What Urko says is true.

With delay, there is risk.

We have come this far.

The answer, right or wrong,
will be in a few hours.

Those in favor of
letting Zoran continue?

- Those against?
- Aye.

Very well. The decision is mine.

You have until noon tomorrow.

Thank you, Zaius.

Fools.

When you are all dying
in pain, like Kava...

...don't forget what I told you.

Noon tomorrow. I don't know.

You told me the medication
worked quickly.

Yes, it does,
but there could be other factors.

We don't know for sure
whether it's a true cinchona tree.

It could be a mutation,
no medicinal value.

It could be a different strain
of malaria that doesn't respond.

So many unknowns.

I was in no position
to bargain with the council.

I know. I understand.

We'll medicate them again
in the morning.

- Nothing more we can do now.
- Yes, I suggest you get some sleep.

Well, I think I'll get some air first.

Amy.

Amy.

- Yes?
- Your friend...

...from the "other world"...

- Yes?
- Where is...

...that other world?
Where did he come from?

- Here.
- Here?

Is he an astronaut?

Amy, listen to me,
is he an astro...?

Why are you sneaking up on me?

I was coming to look at the girl.
Tell me something.

- Is she talking strangely again?
- Strangely?

Yes, it's the fever.

It does make her say
the most impossible things.

She's got a very good
imagination, though.

Yes, yes. I could make no sense of it.

Here, drink this. It'll help you.

Who is it?

- What were those shots?
- Where have you been?

- Just a small mercy mission.
- You treated Kava?

- Yeah.
- Terrific, now he's making house calls.

- You risked your life for an ape?
- His pain is no different than theirs.

- I left evidence behind when I ran.
- Can anyone identify you?

I don't think so. It was too dark.

- I wonder if it matters.
- What do you mean?

Whether Urko believes it was
him or me, the results are the same.

If Zoran loses, Urko wins.

That gives him more freedom, authority,
power to run things the way he wants.

What difference does it make?

If we don't come up with the results
by noon, this village will be ashes.

- What is it?
- I heard a sound.

- There was someone with Kava.
- Who?

I couldn't see, sir.

Kava, who was it?

Who was it?

Kava, was it Zoran?

Was it Zoran?

Did you drink this?

Did you drink this?

Yes.

If Kava dies, if they've killed him
with this medicine...

...I'll kill you myself.

How is she doing?

She seems to be resting better.

Her fever's down a little.

When they wake up, we'll give them
the second medication. We need time.

Zaius gave me until noon.

If he can control the situation...

The gorillas are coming.
They'll burn our houses, everything.

- There goes the situation.
- Urko acts independently of the council!

I came here for a victory of my own.
Urko will not take it away from me.

Could the council have changed
its mind?

I think not.

This is between Urko and myself.

- Do we try to get away?
- There's no way now.

Our future is in his hands.

Watch. You may see the future
come to a quick stop.

We are helpless. We can't run.
We have no weapons.

We've got one.

- Stand aside.
- It is hours yet till noon, Urko.

Stand aside or die
with the others in the village.

- The council voted.
- The council be damned!

That is treason, Urko.
I command you to withdraw.

You command?
You have words, I have weapons.

Would you kill me?

Before I allow you
to let him kill my troops, yes.

Listen to me! Urko doesn't care for you.
He thinks of himself first.

He would not let me help Kava.
He would let Kava die to discredit me.

It is Zoran who thinks only of himself.

He could not help Kava,
he could help no one!

It appears you are misinformed, Urko.

- It's a lie, a trick.
- No!

Last night somebody came to me
from the village.

- I was dying.
- Silence! I order you.

Urko, you are wrong. They gave me
something to drink, bitter medicine.

The medicine made me better.
It saved my life, Urko!

Urko, I tell you again...

...take your troops and withdraw,
while you still have them to command.

Withdraw! Withdraw!

I'd like to speak to you three
for a moment, please.

I suppose you'll be wanting
to leave soon.

- Right. Today.
- Well, I'm afraid that's not possible.

- Why?
- I can't let you go.

- But, well, everything's under control.
- No, no, you don't understand.

I mean, I must tell Zaius
and the others about you.

You see, I know who you are.

- What are you talking about?
- Don't make it difficult.

Your medical knowledge,
the things the girl said.

I know you are the two astronauts,
and Galen is with you.

Understand, I deeply appreciate...

...what you've done here,
what I have learned from you.

- Then how could you turn us in?
- Because you are fugitives.

Zaius wants you,
and I am loyal to Zaius.

Then what we did here
means nothing to you.

No, it does. It does. It does. But...

- But we're the lower species.
- Yes.

If we're lower,
how come we're smarter?

No, I can't explain that.

How will you explain that
your victory here is really theirs?

Or do you intend
to keep all the credit?

No, I have no other choice.
I have my position to uphold.

You turn us in,
you think we won't tell Zaius?

He'd never believe you.

He'd believe me.

Very well, Galen, you may leave.

Well, you see, where they go, I go.

- Lf they stay here, I stay.
- You can't be serious.

Just try me.

But don't you see, they are...

- I know, lower species.
- Lower species. Lower.

Well, now, Zoran,
you've got a decision to make.

Your loyalty, or your ego.

Ego...
I'm not familiar with that word.

How will you feel when Zaius finds out
you've been counseled by humans?

Every move you made,
every word you spoke?

I suggest that you
stay out of sight for now...

...and then leave after dark.

Good.

It's just as bad the second time.

Saying goodbye, I mean.

You'll be all right, Amy.

When I was sick...

...I had this terrible dream...

...that I told the apes about you...

...and they were gonna hurt you.

What a terrible dream.

That's all it was, just a dream.

It seemed so real.

There are a lot of things
that seem real...

...that, in time, turn out
to be not so important...

...or they're forgotten.

Someday, I'll have a family...

...and I'll tell my children...

...about this...

...man from another world...

...who's the kind of man...

...that they should grow up to be like.

Be happy, Amy.
