Rise of the Planet of the Apes Page #3

before they're examined.

Father?

At times, perhaps, the senate feels

that the army has been. . .

. . .a tad extreme.

Extremism in defense of apes

is no vice, senator!

Your ideas threaten our prosperity!

The human problem

can't be solved with money!

We tried that once,

and all we got was. . .

. . .a welfare state that nearly broke us.

I think the city has about

as much diversity as I can handle.

This garment was made

by one of my humans.

And can you deny the skill?

Obviously, they're capable

of a real culture.

Everything in the human culture

takes place below the waist.

Bow your heads!

We give thanks

for the fruit of the land.

Bless us, holy father, who created

all apes in his image.

Hasten the day when you will return

and bring peace to your children.

-Amen.

GROUP:
Amen.

Next you'll be telling us

these beasts have a soul.

Of course they do.

The senator's daughter

flirts with blasphemy.

Is there a soul in there?

Do you have a towel?

I've lost my appetite.

I'm bored by these society dinners.

-I came to see you.

-Oh, how sweet.

You've wasted your time.

My feelings haven't changed.

I still care about you.

You only care about my father's

influence. And your own ambition.

I know about the trouble

you caused today.

-I could have you arrested.

-I'd do it again.

You feel so much for these humans. . .

. . .yet you feel nothing for me.

A moment, sir.

What is it?

We found something.

We think you should see it.

There's a curfew.

If they see you, they kill you.

You stay here, you're already dead.

Can you take me to

where we were caught?

Not without my family.

APE 1 :

This is where I saw it.

THADE:

Go on.

APE 2:
Something fell from the sky

with wings of fire.

APE 2:
There was a thunderous sound

and the ground itself shook.

-You weren't dreaming this?

-It was no dream, sir.

Look.

-You told no one?

APE 1 :
No, sir.

APE 1 :

We had to come right to you.

You did exactly the right thing.

You smell that?

Don't start now. We're off-duty.

And I'm starving.

You're hurt.

How did you get away?

-Who are you?

-Somebody trying to get out.

She promised to take me back.

This is a house-human.

He thinks he's better than us.

Hey!

We'll go together.

[APES LAUGH]

[APES CHATTER]

[APES CHATTER]

[NOVA SCREAMS]

Good night, little girl.

[SCREAMS]

You go this way.

The rest of you, come with me.

ATTAR:

Send a squad to the north gate! Hurry!

Wait! Someone's coming.

You're lucky I found you first.

Come on. I can reason with them.

-We know how apes reason.

-How can we escape?

Don't get involved with these humans.

Why did you help me?

Why would you take that chance?

Because. . .

. . .you're not usual.
