Set off the show.

-Help him with that bolt.

-Cover the gate.

Get on the other side!

Pull!

Open that gate!

The lights will hold him back!

Don't shoot.

-He's taken her.

-No one's taken her.

Who do you think went through

there, some guy in an ape suit?

-You all right?

-I just fell in a Goddamn hole.

No, you didn't.

You're not in a hole.

That's a footprint.

Carnahan here. We've gone over two

miles. There's still no sign of her.

-It's better than finding remains.

-Unless he's gobbled her down.

Give me that thing.

Mostjungle apes eat only fruit.

Mostjungle apes don't have

a size-90 foot.

The men have had it.

I'm going to pitch camp.

Are you a bunch of old ladies?

Come on.

Keep moving.

Carnahan's right.

It makes more sense to stop.

All right, Carnahan.

You know the drill.

We'll plant seismic charges

for mapping and fire rockets...

-Right, right!

-Will somebody be on the radar?

Any large, furry blimp seen moving

in your direction, you'll know.

That footprint measured 6.4 feet.

If that were for real.

How high would that make him?

Multiplied by about eight, I guess.

He'd make a hell of a commercial.

"The battles we at Petrox fight

to fill your tank."

If he's not going to eat her,

why did he take her?

Apes are very territorial.

He'll probably take her to his turf.

What for?

Joe said you said that the ape

was going to marry her.

-Is that some kind ofjoke or...

-I don't know, Carnahan!

I'm as ignorant as you. Quit asking

me so many dumb questions.

I can't stand heights.

Honest I can't. When I was ten I got

sick in the Empire State Building.

Put me down!

You put me down!

You put me down!

Put me down.

Please put me down.

You Goddamn chauvinist pig ape!

What are you waiting for?

You wanna eat me?

Then go ahaed! Do it!

Go ahead and eat me!

Go ahead! Choke on me!

I didn't mean that.

Sometimes I get too physical.

It's a sign of insecurity,

like when you knock down trees.

Such a nice ape.

Such a nice, sweet monkey.

We're going to be great friends.

I'm a Libra, what sign are you?

No, don't tell me.

I'll bet you're an Aries.

Of course you are.

I think that's just wonderful.

Help me!

Help me!

Radar had him on the screen.

He moved in a random manner.

-Not in our direction?

-Affirmative. Random. Like a circle.

Maybe he's lost her. She got away

and he's searching for her.

Carnahan! Wait a minute!

-Have you set seismic charges?

-The men are doing it now.

-Don't move until it's finished.

-He's nuts.

The girl might be running for her life

from a gigantic turned-on ape.

I know how you feel.

But there's an energy crisis.

We must all rise above

our self-interests.

-You hypocritical bastard...
