Escape from the Planet of the Apes (1971) Edit

A driver in lane A may crash while a driver in lane B survives.

A fire report in the Simi Valley.

A giant flesh eating dinosaur.

A marriage bed is made for two,

A parrot!

A picture of the artist painting a picture

A Presidential Commission of Inquiry in Los Angeles tomorrow.

A primitive duckbilled dinosaur.

Aah!

Absolutely. I think it is the only explanation.

Actions against the human race

Address, please.

Administration, Doctor. It's urgent.

After this, I doubt we shall be allowed to live at all.

Ah, Dr. Dixon. Come in.

Ah! Like stars in space.

All extra hands in the back yard.

All I can now do to help you

All leading from the past into the future,

All right now, after I break the news,

All right, men! Move out!

All right, open her up.

All right, we'll take the female first.

All right! Let's go!

All right.

All right. All right.

Alter what you believe to be the course of the future

Am I defying God's will or obeying it?

Am I His enemy or His instrument?

An assassin would say the latter.

And a deer with pneumonia and a depressed gorilla.

And a time not for lies, but for silence.

And according to the NASA experts,

And before... before the white light and the tornado?

And burn to a cinder because of an ape war of aggression.

And conceivably end by dominating it.

And dimas which means body frame.

And Earth will be destroyed just as we saw it.

And eventually destroy it by 3950 something.

And for Stevie

And fully documented in the sacred scrolls,

And get a cable out to those frogmen.

And he'll be giving us his views on the crucial statement

And himself, becomes part of the landscape he painted

And how in the name of God are we to know that unless we communicate?

And humans, too, of course.

And hundreds and thousands of them had to be destroyed

And hundreds and thousands of them had to be destroyed

And I am the animal psychiatrist

And I are ready to answer your questions.

And I have to inform you, sir, that these two apes

And I lack the intellect to know precisely how...

And I repeat the question. Are you mad?

And I trust...

And I want to be kept informed about all results.

And I'm Lewis. Lewis Dixon.

And I've been given orders to find them. Drive carefully.

And if the questions become less simple?

And in the course of less than 2 centuries,

And in their spoken, and I repeat spoken testimony.

And is both the observer and the observed.

And is stated to have been manned...

And later, she'll accompany Dr. Hasslein to the Museum of Natural History.

And moved freely in human homes.

And now, my dear, dear friends,

And paints a picture of the artist painting a picture of the landscape.

And sauros, which means lizard.

And scientific research.

And statistically compared...

And that after its prenatal removal,

And that of the president. Please.

And that's the way it was tonight

And the experts can start giving them the once over first thing tomorrow.

And the fatigue arising from its intended publicity,

And the orangutans are a bunch of blinkered,

And there you practiced...

And they seemed to have provoked you pretty thoroughly into the bargain.

And they will be given an extended tour of the city.

And until now, I've only discovered

And until now, I've only discovered 2 who could talk in my life.

And we don't want that to happen, do we?

And we'll squat 7700 for a radar fix.

And worse.

And you are the first.

And you, the best of all chimpanzees.

And you'll be looking down at a harbor.

And your goddaughter Salome.

And, as their numbers grew, to slavery's antidote,

Any more than you can test a corpse's reaction to a lobotomy.

Apes and humans?

Apes did not love humans.

Apes, at this instant in time,

Are vegetarians, sir.

Are you quite sure that what they saw destroyed was the world?

Are you suggesting that they were improperly interrogated?

Arrange for a police escort at 1630 hours.

Arthur, would you set up a cha...

As 3955 A.D., presumably.

As a matter of fact, I came prepared to do just that.

As a possibility, not hysterically as a fact.

As head of this commission, it will be our duty to sit through

As the president's senior science advisor,

As they were made available.

As to humans, I've dissect...

As well as the parents, who knows,

At first, they just grunted their refusal.

At the Bay Area's Women's Club.

At the southern edge of this oil field.

Base radar will vector.

Be doing in a zoo, Mr. President?

Beastly.

Because

Because Dr. Hasslein made me drunk!

Because you and your husband were frightened

Before the police come and the audience gathers,

Before the white light and the tornado?

Believe what?

Believed until now to have disintegrated in orbit,

Bones, muscles, tendons, veins, arteries,

Both the male and the female

Boy, you really are sick.

Brighter than this?

But a search for facts.

But at least the baby will be born.

But because something is still missing,

But by words.

But every damn morning it's the woman who has to make it!

But he could not kill his dog.

But how do you know that if you weren't there, Zira?

But I agree that that's a revelation the masses would not take kindly to.

But I guessed you might ask.

But if somebody had asked...

But if you think you're going to turn a presidential inquiry

But naturally, being animals,

But now... what can I do?

But still 20 times more intelligent than dogs or cats.

But still something is missing... and that something is still his real self

But the relief comes on at 0430 hours.

But then, on an historic day

But then, so were your mother and father.

But there was a moment...

But very wet.

But we saw the Earth destroyed.

But which side won?

But would they be so called in 2,000 years' time,

But, in a democracy, we do not shoot

But, one day, if the progeny turn out

By destroying the world?

By either ape towards the human race

By my father and mother, who were taught by their

By my own testimony we know that it's genetically possible

By slaughtering 2 innocents?

By their own testimony we know that apes one day will acquire

By Zira's testimony, we know that she is pregnant with child.

Call for Dr. Dixon, please.

Calling Dr. Dixon.

Can be exercised intelligently.

Can you read a map?

Cannot yet talk.

Certainly be simple questions.

Certainly she can articulate,

Chimpanzees are passion...

Chosen for man's destiny?

Chow time.

Clip one, please.

Clip two.

Clouds will cover the coastal area with light showers predicted.

Colonel Taylor's speech centers?

Come along, Zira. Now, don't dawdle.

Come now, Doctor, you know as well as I do

Come on. Over here.

Comparative what?

Comparative.

Control yourself. I think they're trying to be kind.

Cornelius, please.

Cornelius, what have you done?

Cornelius, where are we? What's happened?

Cornelius, you spoke of war.

Cornelius: Where we come from, apes talk.

Cornelius!

Cornelius!

Cornelius?

Cornelius.

Cornelius. Did you know Colonel Taylor?

Correct.

Could a sheepdog cook or clean the house

Could travel from time past to time future

Could you explain in terms that our viewers at home will understand?

Could you explain infinite regression for us?

Could you tell us how you personally would handle it?

Described the first known species

Destroyed.

Did Lewis really play here?

Did she rise as a reflex to you having indicated her,

Did they make you tell them about Taylor too?

Did you notice the date meter clicking down after the shock wave hit our ship?

Did you try to stimulate

Dissect Dissect Dissect...

Do you also believe that we should?

Do you have a name?

Do you mean that?

Do you realize what a distinction that is?

Do you think I'm a pet?

Do you truly believe that by deliberate present day action

Do you understand that?

Do you understand? We will not hurt you.

Do you want them and their progeny to dominate the world, Mr. President?

Doctor.

Dr. Cornelius, tell me, how do you find our women?

Dr. Dixon, as a zoologist, I know and respect your work,

Dr. Dixon? Dr. Hasslein calling Dr. Dixon.

Dr. Hasslein, as I recall, when you asked the male ape

Dr. Milo was a genius well in advance of his time.

Dr. Milo was sure.

Dr. Milo, please, do not call my wife mad!

Drop the bale ring!

Eating off plates with knives.

Enough for Dr. Milo to be murdered in your zoo.

Enough for my wife and I to be here now.

Especially in cases of pregnancy, you know.

Every four.

Evidently, we were wrong because you haven't found them!

Excuse me.

Excuse me. I didn't mean to disturb you while you're dressing.

Experimentally for anatomical dissection

Extremely intelligent and sophisticated creatures.

Fear.

For g**** juice plus.

For nearly 2,000 years.

For over 2 years now.

For protection, huh?

For the moment, we should follow their example.

For the sake of two fugitive apes?

For this child... provided, of course, always that we permit its birth...

Found a colony in the Everglades, and live happily ever after.

From here.

From the Jurassic beds of arikoma.

From the windows of the spaceship...

Gate four.

Gate four. Just a minute, sir. I'll take a look.

Gentlemen, gentlemen.

Get down. I have a better idea.

Give it to me.

Given the power to alter the future, have we the right to use it?

God knows who taught them.

Good evening, this is Bill Bonds reporting from Los Angeles

Good God!

Good. We'll offer the banana.

Good. We'll offer the banana.

Gorillas and orangutans of our community believe

G**** juice plus?

G****.

Greg, maybe you should give them their oranges.

Ha ha ha!

Had no part in the destruction of Earth.

Half? Was half enough?

Have acquired the power of speech.

Have it your own way, mate.

Have they been fed? Raw steak or something?

Have they identified the bodies, Mr. President?

Having convened in secret session at the request of the president,

He also became very unpopular, historically unpopular.

He articulated.

He did not grunt.

He is a senior scientific advisor at the White House.

He paints a fourth and a fifth

He said...

He studied it and half understood it.

He wants feeding.

He would perceive, Mr. Bonds, that time is like a freeway

Held there in his care for interrogation by the CIA

Hello, missy. Have a banana.

Here they come. Gentlemen, do you have...

Here we go.

Here you are, old fella.

Herod tried that, and Christ survived.

Hi, Dr. Dixon. Dr. Branton.

How can I tell? I don't even remember.

How do you like it, Cornelius?

How long?

How many futures are there? Which future has God, if there is a God,

How much time has the world got?

However, not unto the same future.

Humans are dumb.

Humans are dumb.

Humans?

I am saying that our 2 visitors seem to be charming, peaceful people...

I am speaking strictly, Hasslein.

I call upon men to let us use them!

I can think of no one better equipped emotionally

I could have released you in the Everglades.

I did it because I hate those who try to alter destiny

I did it because I like chimpanzees best of all apes,

I did not call her mad. I merely asked her if she was!

I didn't mean to kill him.

I do know this: one of the reasons for man's original downfall

I don't believe it.

I don't believe that we can withhold

I don't know.

I don't know. Chimpanzees are pacifists. We stayed at home.

I don't understand what harm there could be in telling that to the commission?

I feel magnificently sleepy.

I had access to history scrolls which were kept secret from the masses

I had planned it so well.

I have from the beginning.

I have to be honest with someone.

I have to tell them.

I haven't the time now. A little later, please.

I just lost my temper with the boy.

I know where we are. I know what has happened.

I know, but we understand each other.

I know, but you will be responsible for a birth. How is she?

I like you.

I mean, as a scientist, I sympathize,

I mean, he might kill his brother,

I mean, I think it's important that when

I mean, they can't be morons.

I now declare this commission dissolved.

I played there as a kid.

I said, good night.

I see you've had your baby, Zira.

I see you've prepared the Wisconsin multiphasic.

I should like to say good bye to Heloise first.

I should. I've been doing it half my life to humans.

I shouldn't do this,

I speak the language taught to me

I suggest you rephrase the question.

I sure appreciate what you're doing.

I think my pains have begun.

I think that by their intelligence and their good humor,

I want every hand on the menagerie tent.

I want that baby. If you won't give it to me, I'll shoot.

I want them taken, yes, but taken alive.

I want you to start slowly with simple answers to what will

I withheld nothing. Nobody asked me.

I...

I'd better do this alone.

I'd say a week to 10 days.

I'll abide by their findings.

I'll augment your force with the city police,

I'll look around.

I'll see you.

I'm a psychiatrist.

I'm an archaeologist. I can even draw one.

I'm aware that what I have to tell you may conceivably create

I'm getting into practice.

I'm glad I did. We can't live with lies.

I'm not hungry.

I'm not saying that you're wrong, Hasslein, but I am saying

I'm pregnant.

I'm sorry.

I've done that too, dear,

I've examined thousands of them.

I've examined thousands of them.

I've examined thousands of them.

I've received an official notification from the president

I've wrestled with this, Mr. President. I just don't know.

If I urged the destruction of these 2 apes,

If it is man's destiny

If she could speak, she'd say she's sorry.

If that moment should come.

If that's close, she can't have gone far.

If they find us, we shall be killed?

If you can call it manned... by monkeys.

In 1879, O.C. Marsh of Yale University

In a present day jungle or a present day zoo.

In babyhood when he was still innocent?

In either the vocal or abstract thinking area.

In light of the tape recordings

In nets and with guns.

In one month, we move on to our winter quarters in Florida.

In order to prevent the spread of infection.

In some fashion...

In that she undoubtedly committed

In which their participation is still legally unproven.

Infer what you will, Mr. Chairman.

Intelligent creature.

Into a ventriloquist's act, I have to inform you...

Is give you this for the baby.

Is no more than what humans now do to beasts.

Is that clear?

Is that what man wanted oil for...

Is this it?

Isn't it beautiful?

It began in our prehistory

It follows that a driver, by changing lanes can change his future.

It has been the language of our ancestors

It has to be done before we start a stone rolling

It is I myself, who was part of the landscape I painted.

It is offensive to us. As an archaeologist,

It is the moment when our artist has regressed to the point of infinity,

It just seems so cruel and horrible and... I don't know.

It was enough for us to escape when war became inevitable.

It was one of two that have been missing in space

It was the gorillas' war.

It wasn't our war.

It's a graveyard for old ships.

It's been noted that what apes will do to humans

It's certainly the most incredible story this reporter has ever covered.

It's in the... the refrigerator.

It's like being the first fish born on land.

It's like being...

It's the only thing that does.

It's time that you were moving on.

It's too late for that.

Its generic name, therefore, is flexible lizard.

Jabbing needles into my pregnant wife.

Just lie down on the couch.

Just outside the surfline.

Ladies and gentlemen, my name is Lewis Dixon.

Later we'll do something about nuclear war.

Later we'll do something about pollution.

Later, he'll visit Disneyland

Let him be dominated by you.

Let me get this straight.

Let us know when the report comes in. Will you, please?

Let's go! Ha! Ha! Ha!

Lewis is here.

Lewis is on his way.

Lewis said only a sip.

Lewis, I was not responsible for the death...

Lewis, you can't use that on Zira!

Lewis! What took you so long?

Look how he's growing.

Look. I'll go back to camp.

Los Angeles has had four.

Los Angeles isn't a circus. It's a zoo.

Madam Zira, I represent Furand Feather, a pet magazine.

Madam Zira, what is your favorite fruit?

Mama.

Mama.

Mama. Mama.

Mama. Mama.

Mama. Mama.

Mama. Mama.

Mama. Mama.

Mama. Mama.

Mama. Mama.

Man destroys man. Apes do not destroy apes.

Man: Every body out! Come on!

May I measure your inside leg, sir?

May I say something...

May we be unchained?

Maybe the female knows.

Meanwhile, Cornelius will attend a prizefight. That's his first one.

Mechanical mimicry. Unique in an ape vocally, without a doubt,

Milo!

Milo?

Milo.

Milo.

Mimicking salutes, handshaking, sitting on chairs,

Mmm.

More oil wells, an abandoned refinery,

Mr. Bonds, I think that time can only be fully understood

Mr. President, we have their own testimony that they provoked the war.

Much as you would animals.

My associate, Dr. Stephanie Branton

My name is Cornelius.

Neither.

No comment. I have nothing to say, gentlemen.

No comment. No comment.

No, gentlemen, no comment... yet.

No, I didn't. He did.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no. Of the living.

No, sir. The lieutenant hasn't checked in yet.

No, you mustn't!

No.

No. Is he a soldier?

Nobody makes a fool out of my wife.

Nobody's going to believe this.

Nonetheless, it is true. Yesterday, a U.S. spacecraft

Nonetheless, the commission is sympathetic

Nonsense!

Noses, nervous systems,

Not a bite. Just as you ordered.

Not by signs, not by looks, or movements,

Not strictly speaking.

Nothing more or less than a well trained sheepdog could do.

Now here's a painting of a landscape.

Now that they know we can speak, how much will we tell them?

Now they've killed. For that, they must be killed.

Now you will deliver our next.

Now, for a look at the weather.

Now, its scientific name is a compound

Now, Mr. Bonds, I do not find it difficult to believe

Now, this little fellow is Camptosaurus Marsh,

Now, wait a second. Just a moment.

Now... convince me.

Of a sort which, if committed today,

Of bearing another.

Of course not. He could talk already.

Of course the female knows!

Of course, for man, this was intolerable.

Of course. Captain, I want you to start an immediate search

Of every menagerie, zoo, and circus.

Of the artist painting a picture of the landscape.

Of the dead?

Of the entire American nation.

Of the Greek antron which means hollow

Off the coast of Southern California.

Oh, come on, ma'am. It's pure vitamin C.

Oh, God. Get in.

Oh, my dear.

Oh, no, I shouldn't, not in your condition.

Oh, no, no, no.

Oh, the driver gave me this report from the air base.

Oh, they look pretty docile to me.

Oh, well, I'm I'm a psychiatrist too.

Oh, yes, well, um...

Oh, yes. I do it for you

Oh, yes. We even tried to stimulate

Oh.

Ohh...

Okay, sir. I'll be off duty,

On the nature of time.

One day to be dominated,

One might as well be talking to a parrot.

One of them was killed early this morning in the Los Angeles Zoo.

Only since seeing it, we have passed through

Only the gorillas and the orangutans.

Only when she lets me.

Onto the president of the United States for implementation.

Open it up!

Or do the marketing for the groceries with a list from its mistress

Or how they came to be in it.

Or killing his mother when he was still in her womb?

Or rather 3, now that one of them is pregnant.

Or rather creatures... and that the voters love them.

Or slaughtering his remote ancestors?

Or some phrase in her language?

Or wait on tables?

Or, indeed, vice versa?

Orderly.

Our chimpanzee friends

Our human captors will not be edified to learn

Our primitive security precautions are lifted,

Over this hill, you'll pass through

Over time without number by humans.

Pacifists!

Painting a picture of the artist painting a landscape.

Painting a picture of the artist painting a picture of the artist

Painting the second picture.

People regard them as practically human.

Personal?

Please do not use the word monkey.

Please.

Please.

Please.

Please.

Primitive, um, civilization, apes just don't talk.

Primitive? It's prehistoric!

Prove an increasing threat to the human race

Pseudoscientific geese!

Quite clear, Mr. President.

Radio: Go ahead, Red Baron 5.

Radio: Roger.

Ratifying the final recommendations made by this commission

Red Baron, control, Red Baron 5.

Referring to the backbone or vertebrae.

Reflexes?

Reporter: Here comes the chairman.

Reporters: General!

Roger. Orbiting southeast corner sector Alpha Charlie.

Savages!

Say it. Mama.

Says something is missing... what is it?

Science regards these apes as unique.

Sergeant, get that half track down here

Shall we go?

She'll get it.

She's been with the circus seven years now.

She's showing an expectant mother what to expect.

Should be prevented

Should humanely be rendered incapable

Si, patron. Salud!

Sick bay's almost empty, except for a mauled fox cub

Since then, other specimens have been found...

Since they came to the Los Angeles Zoo.

So he mentally takes a step backward, or regresses,

So he regresses further and paints a third.

So humans took primitive apes as pets.

So humans were dumb. Were they happy?

So infinite regression then is...

So New Yorkers say.

So that's how it all started.

So, Zira, if you would just come with me, please.

Sodium Pentothal. 1/2 gram I.V.

Somebody has to begin to care.

Something.

Something.

Sounds as if I had hiccups!

Speak any language other than English?

Splashed down off the Southern California coast.

Splashed down unexpectedly yesterday in the Pacific Ocean

Spread your men out along the pier!

Stand by.

Stevie... she's in labor.

Stomachs, reproductive organs,

Stop arguing!

Suitcase?

Sunny California will not be exactly that tomorrow.

Taylor thought we were savages at first.

Thank you. Dr. Dixon, can you pinpoint

That before I have them shot against the wall, I want convincing

That doesn't make any sense.

That God created the ape in his own image.

That hearing, of course, is going to be held in private.

That in the dark and turbulent corridors of outer space,

That is another reason for us to keep silent.

That is only natural.

That one day their world will crack like an egg

That one day, talking apes will dominate this Earth

That the apes, after their arduous space voyage,

That the birth of the female's unborn child

That the first time you say anything in public,

That the handwriting on the wall is calculably true.

That they have withheld vital information from this commission,

That you never told the commission when sober?

That'll gather enough poison moss to kill us all!

That's for you to decide.

That's it. Just be seated.

That's oil and dead fish.

That's your voice, isn't it?

The 'ape o nauts' will, in fact, be escorted by Dr. Lewis Dixon

The 2 so called ape o nauts have already captured the hearts

The 2 surviving apes

The answer is a thousand times... yes.

The ape with the kid?

The apes will be hidden from the public. They'll be quarantined.

The areas we first established.

The army used some for target practice.

The artist who painted that picture

The baby's birth was registered 16 days ago.

The commission makes the following interim recommendations...

The date meter on the spaceship.

The downtown...

The female replied, From your future.

The first chimpanzee ever to be born in a circus!

The general, sir.

The impact of some distant planetary, even galactic disaster,

The killers of today could become

The mass murderers of tomorrow.

The pains are coming every five minutes.

The plague was contained, man was without pets.

The police have roadblocks on every main exit.

The power of intelligent speech.

The precise year of what you merely inferred

The Presidential Commission has empowered me to take it in my care.

The press will be invited to attend, not to participate.

The probable date of the baby's birth with any degree of accuracy?

The right people.

The supply truck isn't due until 0600 hours.

The survivors were put in cages.

The various reflexes.

The zoo tells me that chimpanzees, like all apes,

The zoo.

Their atrophied speech centers.

Their brain system is not developed

Then there was a tornado in the sky.

Then there was a tornado in the sky.

Then there's no need for a shooting match.

Then we saw the rim of the Earth melt.

Then you can travel with them to Florida,

Then, uh... give us the opportunity

There came Aldo.

There is justifiable cause for suspecting

There must be someplace cleaner than this.

There was when he started to ask us...

There were hesitancies and small discrepancies in

There will be a lot of vehicles in the area.

There. That's good.

There's a derelict tanker at one end.

Therefore...

They are apes.

They are not astronauts, General Faulkner.

They are savages!

They became alert to the concept of slavery,

They cannot tell us where the ship came from

They have identified 3 bodies, yes, all living.

They learned the art of corporate and militant action.

They learned to refuse.

They made me tell them everything, Cornelius.

They may do a better job of it than we have.

They may punish us for what we did,

They must have been conditioned to push at least some of the right buttons.

They need medical attention, it's available right on the spot.

They progressed from performing mere tricks

They suggested oranges.

They treated you like dirt.

They were quartered in cages, but they lived

They will not be required

They will, however, be taken from the zoo infirmary to a hotel,

They would have asked if he was still alive.

They, uh, haven't had their breakfast yet?

They, uh, hunted them for sport,

They'll have company there.

They're going to the zoo infirmary.

They're pretending to dress, sir.

This cage stinks of gorilla.

This extraordinary discovery from the world any longer.

This has the same effect as g**** juice plus.

This is a risk we dare not ignore.

This is for relaxing. It won't harm her.

This is my wife Zira.

This is not an interracial hassle,

Though not necessarily in that order...

To appear before the commission tomorrow.

To be Earth's destruction is recorded on the flight synthesizer

To be exact, the one commanded by Colonel Taylor.

To bear or beget a talking ape by a dumb one

To dedicate a new boat for the Jungle Cruise.

To do about it?

To Dr. Hasslein's conviction that these apes' progeny

To handle this unique situation?

To kill ourselves

To perform experimental brain surgery on living humans?

To persuade the people of that possibility,

To the installation known as Camp 11.

Uh, Mr. Chairman, members of the commission,

Uh, well, they're...

Uh...

Uh... well, I mean that in our, um...

Ultimately.

Um, go easy now, Stevie.

Um, we mean you no harm.

Unarmed suspects on sight for a murder

Under the guidance and supervision of Dr. Otto Hasslein.

Unless the spacecraft was remotely controlled,

Use your heads and start thinking.

Very good. Very good.

Very human.

Wait! Just a sip!

Was man's own invention.

Was your peculiar habit of murdering one another.

We are happy to be here.

We came to love him.

We can neutralize that possibility?

We can't allow monkeys to leave their messes on the floor, huh?

We can't contact them until then.

We condoned the attempted assassination of Hitler because he was evil.

We could pick from the rest.

We did all we could to help him...

We did know Colonel Taylor.

We have heads as well as hands.

We have no proof, Hasslein, that these apes are evil.

We have returned to Earth nearly 2,000 years before its destruction.

We have traveled from Earth's future to Earth's past.

We just ought to leave.

We loved Taylor.

We must get this to the commission.
