But...

You will.

You know the scary thing about them?

They don't need power, lights.

Heat. Nothing.

Hey, pal.

That's their advantage.

That's what makes them stronger.

Malcolm, I'm thinking one of us

should stand guard tonight.

With what? They took our guns.

If they wanted us dead,

we would be dead already.

Maybe they're just taking their time.

They killed off half the planet already.

Come on.

What?

You can't honestly blame the apes.

Who the hell else am I going to blame?

It was the simian flu.

It was a virus created

by scientists in a lab.

The chimps they were testing on

didn't have a say in the matter.

Spare me the hippie-dippie bullshit.

You're telling me you don't get

sick to your stomach at the sight of them?

Didn't you have a little girl?

Carver, that's enough.

- How did she die?

- That's enough!

Or your wife, for that matter.

Carver, you better shut up...

Before I kick your ass.

Okay.

I'm the a**hole.

Are you okay?

You sound sick... you ok?

Just need rest.

You worry about the humans...

Where's koba?

Still angry.

Said he was going hunting...

Look, humans below!

Why are we here?

Caesar trusts humans...

Koba does not.

Most of the arsenal seems functional.

Good.

We're testing them out back.

Hey!

Don't you move!

Don't move, do you understand me?

Terry!

Terry, get in here, quick!

Holy sh*t.

What do we do?

What do we do?

Where did he come from?

- Should we shoot him?

- Maybe. I don't know.

You are one ugly son of a b*tch,

aren't you?

Whoa, man.

Dude, I think he's hungry.

He must have gotten separated

from the others.

You lost?

Trying to get home?

Go on! Get out of here, stupid monkey!

Go on. You heard him. Go!

Enough guns here to kill every ape...

Must warn Caesar.

Who knows what humans are really doing up there?

We gotta clear this blockage.

I didn't know you had a daughter.

Yeah.

What was her name?

Sarah.

I'm really sorry.

Well, now I have you and your dad, so...

Yeah.

All right, you got that straight?

Whoa.

That's all the wire we got.

Brace yourselves.

Three, two, one.

- Dad!

- Malcolm!

Malcolm! Malcolm!

Dad?

I can't see carver.

Don't!

- Leave it there.

- I got it.

It's not broken.

Let go. Good.

Thank you.

You saved our lives.

We've got a lot of debris to clear now.

We might need a bit more time.

How long?

Hey, buddy.

Hey... hey...

What are you doing? Are you finished?

What are you looking at?

Hey! Hey!

Hey, get out of there!

- Hey! I'll kill you!

- Carver, what're you doing?

Don't! Don't!

Caesar, no!

No.

Said no guns!

- No, don't.

- Please.

I didn't know.

Human leave now!

Man, we screwed now.

Malcolm?

Malcolm, where are you going?
