Alan! Pete!

Alan!

That... Look!

What's the matter?

That's a flying reptile.

- A what?
- A flying reptile!

I think it sees us.

- I don't believe it.
- Well, what do you know.

- Are you frightened?
- Of what? Seeing a man fly?

A man?

Humans can't fly.

Yeah. It's some sort of a
homemade glider contraption.

Get down.

Let's get out of here.

We better get there first.
A flying human? They'll kill him.

Come on.

Pete! Galen! I found him. Over here.

- You hurt?
- No.

- There.
- Now, better.

Well, you see, that gust of wind...

That gust of wind on that side...
I should put my weight on that side.

It's not that simple.
Your design's wrong.

Sure, sure, I can correct.
You see, if l...

No, never mind.
You wouldn't understand.

Alan! Those troopers spotted him.
Come on.

All right, this way.

He got away.
But we have the thing that flies.

- Yeah, well, it's very impressive.
- You see, it will work.

Leuric, you got your glider in the air,
but it's a wonder you weren't killed.

You have a superstitious fear
of flying.

I've got a lot of fears, but that's
not one of them. You'll kill yourself.

- Now, how do you know?
- Believe me, they know.

It's impossible.
No one has ever flown.

I'm the first. How could
they know anything about it?

Leuric, listen, what you've invented
is a kind of a glider.

A remarkable achievement, but it's
a dead end. Where do you go with it?

- Up into the sky.
- For what?

Put that same thought and energy
into something that can be useful.

Yeah, invent a new kind of plow
or something.

I will fly.

I will do what no human be...

Trying to steal my idea
so you can take the credit.

We're not trying to steal it.
We're trying to help you.

Listen, Leuric,
if we worked on your glider...

...taught you safety techniques,
got you soaring like an eagle...

...we'd only be setting you up
as a target.

Some gorilla would see you, and pow!

I don't care.

I have to get on with my work.

How long do you think it will be
before they find you?

They already know
that a human has tried to fly.

They are not going to stop
until they find that human.

I won't stop my work.

Look, if you have to
continue this project...

...could you do it farther from town,
where you won't be spotted?

There is a place the apes avoid
because of superstition...

No, it would take too much time
to move my tools and materials.

- It doesn't matter. We'll move you.
- Yeah.

Right. Now, let's move this junk
to wherever.

You're very good to me. I'll show you.
Several trips will be necessary.

- Is this something to do with flying?
- No, I found it on the beach.

A strange rock appeared
after lightning struck.

Sand must have melted,
a hunk of glass formed.

I'll polish it,
show you what you can do with it.

If you don't mind, Leuric.

You expect us to believe
a human flew?

- My troopers saw it.
- Something even apes cannot do?

Dolman, I expect you
to believe Konag.

My garrison commanders are not
in the habit of coming here...

...to address the council
for the purpose of lying.

This is very interesting.
But it's no more than a toy.

Is there any objection
to having this human found, killed...

...and any other such toys destroyed?
- No objection.

Zaius, if I might
have permission to speak?

I'm just a female scientist with none of
your wisdom in dealing with humans.

But I merely wonder if this idea...

...even though stumbled upon
by a human, might not serve us.

Ridiculous.
How could a human idea serve us?

I don't know.
But it's new and unexplored...

...and what could be lost
in further examination?

Yes, yes, go on.

It's not widely known,
but there is reason to believe...

...that our ancestors knew how to fly.

What?

There are references,
vague but strongly suggestive...

...in books from the old days before
the world was almost destroyed.

Perhaps this human learned
from some book he found.

If he has such a book,
it is punishable by death.

He could infect the other humans.
But in any case...

...why bother with something
which is just a worthless toy?

I'm sure you're absolutely right, Urko.

And yet, I wonder,
if flying were worthless...

...would our ancestors
have engaged in it?

How much more?

Galen and Leuric should be bringing
the last of it. How you doing?

This is a round stone. It's useless.

- There you go.
- A little innovation.

I think I'm gonna stay here,
work on this.

I can't wait to see Galen's face when
he looks through a magnifying glass.

Alan, Pete, they captured Leuric.
I watched from my hiding place.

There was nothing I could do.
They took him away.

- Why didn't they just kill him?
- The only thing I can think of is...

...they want to make
a spectacle of him.

How?

Public execution.

Bring my baggage.

Commander Konag, congratulations
on capturing the human. Where is he?

He's in a cell.

Handled roughly,
but he can answer your questions.

I'm sure he'll be much more
cooperative thanks to your handling.

- What's all this?
- Some things for use with the human...

...and the others for my personal
comforts, since I'll be staying a while.

The council gave you permission to
deal with the human for a short while.

And how long is a short while, Konag?
Three days? Five? Seven? Nine?

We have no guest facilities!
This is a troop garrison!

I don't mind the inconvenience.
This will be perfectly adequate.

- And, Philip, put those there.
- Yes, madam.

- These are my quarters!
- And it's so generous of you, Konag.

I shall be sure and tell Urko and
the council how helpful you've been.

Now, I shall require a room...

...and I'm sure you can manage
two or three sturdy tables.

Beyond that, you just won't even know
that I'm here. Thank you so much.

My servant will carry your effects out.
I'll question the human shortly.

Trooper.

I'm Carsia.
You were told to expect me?

Take me to the human, Leuric.
What's that?

He's being punished.
He doesn't show respect.

Next time, eat what's given you
without complaining.

- Stand up! Stand up!
- You're worse than these lower animals.

Nothing's worse than strength
and authority without intelligence.

Get out of here.

I'm so sorry.

- Apes are not sorry for humans.
- I'm different from some apes.

And I think you're different from
most humans. That's why I'm here.

When this man has rested and had
his hurts attended to, bring him to me.

I needn't warn you against a repetition
of the brutality I just witnessed.

- Gee, that's a nice carriage.
- Yeah.

- You drive it?
- Yeah.

- All the way from Central City?
- I drive Carsia a lot further than this.

She's a very important ape.

- And you get to ride it, huh?
- Yeah.

Gosh, you're lucky.

You know, if I was an ape that was as
important as Carsia... Is that her name?

- I'd never come to this village.
Nothing ever happens here.

- Something happened.
- What?

I don't know. Carsia wouldn't come
all this way to talk to a human...

...unless something important
was going on.

Oh, yeah.

Why did you tell that guard
not to beat me?

There's nothing which can be
accomplished by beatings...

...which cannot be achieved
in a more civilized manner.

What do you want?

I won't be questioned by a human for
whom I've requested decent treatment.

I'm sorry.

That's the first reasonable thing
you've said.

- And I appreciate what you did.
- I want to help you, Leuric.

I'm a scientist.
I'm interested in truth and knowledge.

I am told that you know
the secret of flying. Is this true?

Yes.

Can you prove to me that a human,
or an ape, could fly?

I can prove to you that I can fly.

- How?
- By flying.

- So you say.
- No, I have flown.

Well, almost.

If they hadn't taken my tools
and materials from me.

If I get out of here,
if they don't kill me, I will fly.

All right, I will try again.

A flying reptile was reported as being
seen near here, or so I was told.

I don't know anything about
flying reptiles...

You're not interested.
And you're wasting my time!

You must have a superior.
Where is he?

Konag is inspecting the outposts.
He'll be back tonight.

There must be somebody else. There
has got to be somebody besides you.

- She's busy.
- She?

- In a garrison?
- Visiting from Central City.

From civilization.

I shall wait.

Here.

Wait outside.
Is there anything else you need?

What else is there to need?

I'm not familiar with tools. Some of
these were developed by our ancestors.

We've since lost the knack
of using them.

Perhaps because we have humans
to do our labors.

I'm sure you'll know
how to use them.

This does seem an awkward device
for driving a nail.

It has another use.

Very good.
You're clever with your hands.

Just be equally clever with your head...

...and design a device which will
take you high into the sky.

How much longer do I have
to wait for this female?

Hello, I'm Carsia.

Hello, indeed. I'm Protus.

I am on an archeological
expedition, and...

What are you doing
in this forsaken place?

I'm on an expedition of another sort.
How may I help you?

You already have, by reviving
my confidence in the fact...

...that I am not the only ape
on this planet...

...with interests
other than sleeping and eating.

I myself have not found the company
very stimulating. Do come in.

So I have been trying to track down
this rumor about this flying reptile.

I'm glad you did,
but it wasn't a reptile.

I know, the guard told me.

A flying human, I mean,
that is much more of a curiosity.

Well, we'll know in a few days
whether or not the human can fly.

I would love to see such a thing.

Well, stay. I'd be delighted to have
you present at the demonstration.

You are kind.

Well, I'm not quite sure
that's the right word for me.

- Charming.
- Thank you.

Well, I'm not asking for compliments,
although I do like to hear them.

- Won't you please sit down?
- Thank you very much.

You don't think that you're kind?

I'm just really not sure.

I think I have other qualities.
They're more important.

Such as...?

Well, I think I'd be more interesting
if you found out for yourself.

Well, I intend to try.

But I very much doubt that I'll find
you're unkind. That is hard to believe.

Well, I suppose I could take credit
for saving the life of a human...

...who says he could fly.

He's promised to give us
a demonstration in five days.

If he fails, well...

Well, I hope he succeeds.
I mean, just so I can see a human fly.

I'm eager too.
That's why I decided he should live.

Galen, can't Carsia help Leuric
even if his flight is a failure?

Well, I can only go
on what she's told me.

She's very sympathetic.

I know she'd want to protect him.
Yes, she's that kind of ape.

Getting a little hung up there
on her, Galen?

If you mean what I think you mean...

...I think you are jumping
to premature conclusions.

Which may be correct.

What are we gonna do about Leuric?

- See that he flies.
- A functional glider.

We're gonna have to make it for him.

I'm not sure we know enough to make
a functional glider out of that junk.

How you coming?

- Okay, Galen, we're ready for it.
- Be right there.

Be careful with this.

- I tell you, it is very hot.
- Set it there.

Okay. Now, keep it taut.
Hold it as tight as we can.

That's amazing.

Boiled tree sap and corn flour.

That's the best we could do.
It's called "glue."

- Galen, hold that a second, will you?
- I can't.

- Why not?
- My fingers are stuck together.

Well, what do you think?

Yeah, I think it could fly, with luck.

I do hope so. It's very exciting.

If you think the prospect of flying
is exciting, wait till you take off.

I will. You know, I can hardly...
Wait a minute.

You mean, I take off?

Thank you very much.
This all has been fascinating.

- Galen.
- Now, you wait a minute.

If you tied me to that thing
screaming and kicking...

...I would find some way
to keep my feet on the ground.

It's gotta be tested
before we try to get it into Leuric.

Yes, and I intend
to watch one of you test it.

And I shall applaud enthusiastically
if you are successful.

What would happen if an ape
looked up and saw a human flying?

Well, he would
shoot the human down.

Right. When you're hanging
up there on a glider...

...there aren't a lot of places to hide.
- Right.

If an ape saw another ape flying, he'd
get shook up, but he wouldn't shoot.

But he's not going to get shook up,
because he won't see an ape flying.

- Galen, you've got to do it.
- It's you or it's, "Alas, poor Leuric."

Look, save your breath.
Now, it is out of the question.

I refuse.
I absolutely put my foot down.

Now, use your foot to kick off, right?

Now, brace yourself
like I showed you. You ready?

- No way.
- Good. Let's go.

- Easy, Galen. Let the wind do it.
- You let the wind blow it!

He likes it.

Well, Protus, what do you think?

It is marvelous.
It's absolutely marvelous.

It is hard to believe
that one can actually fly.

How thrilling that would be.

I'll be the first to know
when I fly tomorrow.

Tomorrow? But that's two days
earlier than Carsia said.

Leuric's been working enormously hard.
He's ready before we expected.

- How nice.
- Come, Protus.

I've had a new book sent
from Central City.

I'm sure you'll be interested.

Carsia, I'll be with you
in one minute.

I do want to take one last look
at this marvelous bird.

Very well.

"Protus"?

Never you mind about that.
Your glider will not fly.

- It will.
- It won't.

But we have built a glider
that will fly.

Now, it is being disassembled,
and it's being smuggled to you.

This will fly, and I will fly it.

You will break every bone
in your stupid head.

Now, you must stall for two days.

See, we can't get it delivered
and reassembled in less time.

You just want time to steal my idea...

...so you can be the first to fly.
- Protus?

- Coming.
- Everything all right, Leuric?

Everything is fine. I'll fly tomorrow.

This is hopeless.
It's absolutely hopeless.

I mean, even if we could get it
into shape by the morning...

...we couldn't deliver it
and assemble it in time.

We're going about this the wrong way.

The first order of business shouldn't be
to deliver a glider that will fly.

The first thing we gotta do
is to stop a glider that won't fly.

- Are you ready, Leuric?
- All ready to move it to the cliff.

I am afraid that Leuric is somewhat
single-minded of purpose.

It's a characteristic of humans.
I was trying to tell him yesterday...

...that there are other areas
of interest in science. See?

What is that?

This, which is a natural substance,
is an unnatural device.

Look. I call it an "expander."
Look, come here. Come here.

See here, it's a fly.

Well, that's fascinating, Protus.

Leuric, come on, it's your turn.
See that?

This, it'll expand almost anything.
Look. See here.

Look. See that? Look.

There's something over there I want
to show you and ask you about.

I want your advice about it.
It's right at the end of that table.

Over there. Right there.

Look at this closely. See here?

A well-made joint, you'd say?

But can you be sure?

How many mechanical failures have
been caused by poorly fitting joints?

Weakened by small flaws that could
have been exposed by my expander.

Could help.

I take a certain conceited pleasure
in the way your mind works, Protus.

Conceited?

It is uniquely, penetratingly,
the mind of a chimpanzee.

Don't be modest.

After all, are gorillas or orangutans
capable of subtle ideas?

Now, you know, I had never thought
of a gorilla as being subtle.

No, they hold high authority
because of brute force...

...since they lack intelligence.

Help! Help! Fire!

- What do you think caused it?
- It's gone. Destroyed.

Oh, pity.

Your expander may have uses
you never thought of, Protus.

Now, that is amazing.
Carsia, I cannot take credit for this. No.

You will be known as the ape...

...who made fire with an expander.

Thank you.

- My flight.
- Oh, no, no. Merely delayed.

You'll have all the materials you need,
and you may start again.

I feel responsible for this.
Let me make amends.

I have these two servants...
They're rascals, both of them...

...but they are very, very clever
with their hands.

I will send for them,
and they will bring all the materials...

...they can provide to put this thing
back together again.

You two, what do you want?

- We're the servants of Protus, sir.
- Yes.

More foolishness for that human
to make into wings?

Yes, sir.

- All right, take it in.
- Thank you, sir.

You know, Protus,
I like doing things for you.

Thank you.

- Interesting?
- Very. Very.

Galen burned the...

Galen burned the wings, didn't he?
Deliberately?

Leuric, what do you want,
an engraved apology?

We only ruined your glider because
you would have broken your neck.

- It would have flown.
- This one'll fly, and you'll be flying it.

All you have to do is
assemble the pieces.

I don't believe it.

Do you hear this guy?
Alan, what are we doing here?

Spinning our wheels.
We should have left you up that tree.

We could have let the troopers
pick you up when you crashed.

You were clever. You wanted to find
out what I knew about flight first.

Right, we risked our necks
just so we could take lessons...

...from Wobbling Willie and his
wonderful, wiggling wings. Let's go.

Now, wait a minute. Wait.

You're... You're really trying to
help me? You really want me to fly?

That's right.

All right, I believe you.
I don't know why you're helping me...

...I don't know why Carsia is,
but I don't care.

As long as I get up there just once,
I don't care what happens after that.

Well, that is very, very flattering.

Oh, no, not flattery.
It's the truth. Every word.

I am delighted to believe...

...that chimpanzees are superior...

...to other apes,
seeing I'm a chimp.

I don't know, however...

...that agreement would be
coming so easily from, let's say...

...a gorilla.

Of course not. They haven't the
intelligence to recognize the obvious.

I suppose...

...patting oneself on the back
could be considered...

...a harmless and good
form of exercise.

I wanted you to read that book.

I wanted you to know how we feel.

We?

Who is the head of the council?

Zaius, of course.

An orangutan. And who is
commander of all the security forces?

Urko.

A gorilla. Can you name me
one chimp...

...who occupies a position
of top authority?

Just what are you hinting at?

- What do you want?
- I advised Urko of the delay...

...in the flight test.
- I expected you would.

This is Konag, the garrison
commander, Protus.

Urko believes the human won't fly.

I know Urko's views.

He's authorized me
to execute the human...

...if the test is delayed
beyond tomorrow.

And you!

You might want to arrange
to have your things...

...taken out by then.

A gorilla in a position to give orders
to you, to me...

...to chimps who are far above him
in intelligence.

He gives orders to chimps, but he
shoots humans. What about Leuric?

The test has been postponed until
tomorrow. There'll be no problems.

Come in.

The guard told us to report to you
when we were through, sir?

A precaution.

Of course. Well, are you through?

Yes.

Is everything prepared
for the flight?

- Yes.
- Very good.

Very well, you may go.

Sir, I wondered if we could speak
to you for a minute, please?

I am busy. What is it?

Well, there's...

There's something
I'm trying to remember...

...we wanted to
talk to you about, sir.

Your servants don't seem
very bright, Protus.

They're not.

Go. You can come back later if you
can remember what it is you wanted.

I just remembered what it was, sir,
that we wanted to talk to you about.

The last load we brought in,
it wrecked the... cart, sir.

We want to show you.

You permit them to bother you
with nonsense like this?

No.

Go! Come on. Go at once!

Yes, sir.

I'll teach them some manners.
I'll be back in a minute.

Now, what's the matter?

What do you think is in that box
in your girlfriend's room?

- What box?
- The green one.

The one that says
"Fragmentation Cosmoline Pack."

I wondered, but I didn't want to pry.

Yeah. Fragmentation bombs.

Lovely mama bombs with
lots of baby bombs inside...

...so when they blow,
they blow all over the place.

They were customarily
dropped from airplanes.

Right. Now, the question arises,
what is that cute little chimp...

...you've been romancing in there
doing with a case of instant death?

Well, now they'll mind their manners.

Now, tell me... Thank you.

- What were we talking about?

We were saying the chimps,
who are the most intelligent...

...and the best-equipped,
are not in control...

...of the government and the council.

Yes. Yes, that's what we...

By the way, I've been meaning
to ask you... What is this?

The answer to some
of the questions I've been asking.

For instance, why would I waste
the time saving the life of a human?

Leuric means nothing to me.

But if he can teach us to fly...

I don't understand.

The council chambers are guarded
when the council is in session.

No one can approach.

The same is true
of Urko's headquarters.

Now, Protus, think.

If Urko, his troops and the council
were eliminated...

...who would control the world?

There are bombs in this box.

To eliminate?

With Leuric's wings, we can swoop
down out of the night sky in the dark.

Unseen, unheard.
That is why I'm determined...

...to keep him alive until
he can teach us to fly.

Do you see, Protus?

Oh, yes.

Absolutely.

It's perfectly clear.

- What are you doing?
- Getting you out.

Why? No!

- Carsia is using you!
- I don't care! Get away!

She'll blow up everything
if she gets her hands on a glider!

There's no time.
The guards are coming.

Pete! Take care of the guard,
I'll bring him.

Get away! You can't...

Get away!

Come on! Now!

Go!

Come on!

Come on, come on!

There's no chance. Let's go!

You chose a human
in preference to me?

In preference to what you're planning.

Take him away!

The test is canceled.

The flight will proceed as scheduled.

I've arranged for the execution of Leuric
and that renegade ape in the morning.

I shall look forward to witnessing
Protus' execution...

...after the test flight.

Leuric will be shot too.
There'll be no test.

A dead man can't operate
those wings.

One of your troopers
will take the human's place.

Risk the life of a gorilla in a pointless
experiment? Absolutely not!

- It's all my fault.
- Of course it is.

Some humans are much more human
than other humans, but you...

You are the most human.

- I'm sorry.
- A lot of good that does.

- How does that feel?
- Well, it's numb.

You know, even if I get out of here,
I won't be able to fly.

It's almost impossible...

Here we are, facing a firing squad,
and all you can do is...

I don't care what happens
to the human...

...but I want that flying device
returned safely. Lf, in fact, it can fly.

If you're worried about them
flying off with it...

Move out!

Lobar, bring the human here.

Look.

You have an open area
marked off by my troopers.

If you fly out of it,
you'll be shot down.

- Well, now...
- Are you trying to signal?

No, of course he isn't.
The poor man is half frightened to death.

- He doesn't know how to tell you.
- Tell me what?

He can't fly with one hand. Look.

Is this true?

- The test is canceled.
- No, I insist the flight go on.

And I still refuse
to risk the life of an ape!

Well, it's no good looking at me.

You couldn't force me onto that thing.
If I am going to be killed...

...I demand a decent,
proper execution.

Wait a minute...

Oh, no, no, no, no.
Now you, you wait a minute.

It is out of the question.
It is absolutely ridiculous.

Even if I were willing, I tell you,
I don't know how to fly.

Will the wings support
both you and him?

- Yes, they might.
- But, no.

Well, Konag, it seems we have
solved two problems.

I want to see if those wings
can carry extra weight...

...and you want to spare any
of your troopers the risk of flying.

But I protest!

And if they fall into the sea,
they'll drown. It'll be no loss.

You will fly.

The human will ride along with you
to show you how to guide the wings.

Oh, Carsia.

I knew you were cruel...

...but I didn't know how cruel.
- Bring the wings!

More fun than the no-hitter
I pitched in high school.

Ready?

I am going to fly!

They're flying. I knew it would work.

I don't know if I can control it.
The wind is so strong.

I made it happen,
what nobody ever did before.

You also may be killed the way
no one's ever been killed before.

Here we go!

- Where are they going?
- Flying out to sea.

Fire!

Shoot them down, both of them.

Wait. You may not have
to waste your bullets.

Hold your fire.

They're dead.

And so is the secret of flight.

I wasn't sure you'd make it.

I wish we hadn't.

It flew like a bird. I knew it would.
I could have stayed up forever.

Please, get me to the shore. Quick.
