Lisa, you didn't see them
They're... Oh... They're malformed.
Like the freaks in your|foster father's circus?
Were they mad?|- What's malformed?
Cornelius, go to bed.
But I'm giving Riki his water.
Lisa, freaks are different.
These humans are the end product..
of nuclear radiation
They are mutant and they're mad.
Keep all emergency channels open.
Yes, Governor. All emergency|channels will remain open.
If anything should miscarry...
I'll signal you as arranged.|- Yes, sir.
Hurry, man.|We need it!
The school bus will be|operational, Governor.
The rest of the convoy|will join us at Junction "C."
Get moving.
Riki!
Well, without guns..
we have no power.
We shall take the guns..
and we shall keep them
We need power and guns
Guns are power.
We are the elite.|We are the super-race
We have the right to lead.
Without us, there would be no army.
We need power, guns!
We need power!
Guns! Guns!
Guns are power!
We shall get them|and we shall keep them
With guns we will smash the humans.
All humans!
And then we will smash Caesar!
Hmm?
Look!
It's Caesar's son.|- And he overheard every word we said.
Cornelius, come down.
Come down, or else.
Father!
Cornelius?
Mother!
Cornelius!
I only heard about it this morning
His squirrel is missing.|He must have been looking for it.
How is Cornelius?
Hurt. He's badly hurt
Speak the truth.
Even if we had|a hospital...
I'm not going to tell|Caesar, not yet.
He still believes|he can change the future.
Humans, going towards our city.
I'll get him.
Get ready to fire.|Fire!
I don't believe Cornelius can live.
Caesar does. He refuses|to leave his side.
MacDonald, how can a benevolent God|allow the branch of one of his own trees...
to crack and injure|an innocent child?
It didn't crack, Virgil.|It was cut.
Order at council!
Order! Order!|The humans are attacking.
They have killed one gorilla,|and they have wounded another.
Tell 'em.
We were scouting desert approaches|to the city and saw their army.
They fired.|My companion was killed
I have come to warn you.
And how long before they get here?
Soon. So now we must prepare.
Take the humans out.|Lock them all in a corral.
Aldo! Aldo!|You can't do this.
You're acting|against Caesar's orders.
Caesar is not here.
Hey! What the...
Wait!
Jake.
Strongman, take him to the corral.
Take all humans to the corral
Take all humans to the corral.
All humans... take them to the corral.
Where are you going?|Martial law has been declared.
Everybody is to stay in their homes.
By whose orders?
Go home.
We want guns.
Guns are power.
Now we go and get guns.
Mandemus.|- Who's there?
Aldo. General Aldo.
Hmm? What do you want?
Guns. Guns.
What will you do with them?|- We shall do with them what we will.
"Do what you will"|is the devil's law.
Who are you, Mandemus? God?
I am the keeper|of Caesar's conscience.
And I am the keeper of Caesar's army.|- Under allegiance to Caesar.
Where is he?|- Mandemus, as I speak...
our city is being attacked by humans|from without and within.
Who cares where Caesar is?|- I care!
There is a law that weapons|may only be issued from this armory...
under direct orders from Caesar...
and not under threats from one of his|thicker-headed subordinates...
for whom war means|only personal glory.
Now, find me Caesar.|I will listen to him.
First, listen to this.
Take every gun in the place.|Everything.
Get the ammo boxes.|Get the handguns, grenades.
Stop! Stop! Caesar forbids you!
Well, there it is.|Ape City.
When we leave I don't wanna see|one tree left standing...
two pieces of wood nailed together|or anything left alive.
I want it to look like...|that city we came from.
What the devil is all|that rubbish down there?
It looks like some sort|of barricade, sir.
Nothing that a couple of flame bombs|won't take care of.
Sergeant York, do you read me?
Yes, Governor Kolp.
We're going to attack Ape City|in half an hour at sunrise.
If the fates shouldn't smile on us,|bring that message to Alma.
Yes, Governor.
Caesar, forgive me,|but I couldn't get here before now.
Aldo has seized power.|He's broken into the armory...
and imprisoned all humans|in the corral.
MacDonald?|- He was dragged from the council meeting...
by Aldo's gorillas.
I can't leave Cornelius.|He needs me.
Every ape and human|in Ape City needs you now.
I, uh... I think you|should go to Cornelius.
Father? They...
hurt me.
They want...
to hurt you.
Who hurt you?
The humans?
No.
Then who?
Shall...
Shall I be malformed?
No.
One day...
you are going to be|as tall as a king.
All right, Captain. Lay the smoke screen,|and when I give the signal...
Sir!|- start the bombardment.
Men and equipment, out of the bus!
Deploy your weapons quickly!
All is in order, sir.|- All right. Let's go.
He said they hurt him.
Who?
Who would hurt him?
I think you'll have|your answer, and soon.
What do you know?
That's what I know.
You did this.|- For security.
Did you also raid the armory for the same reason?|- For security!
Caesar! Caesar!
I order you to stop this! I order you|to stop it now and release those people!
See? Aldo was right.
War has come. Let's go.
Go to the barricade.|To the barricade!
Come on!|Go to the barricade!
They're laying a smoke screen.
Here they come.
Where's Aldo?
Probably on the other side|of the valley by now.
Hurry! Fall back!|Fall back!
Fall back!|Go back to the village!
Fall back!
Get away from the fire!|Fall back! Hurry!
Leave the barricade!|Fall back!
Fall back!|Get back to the village!
Nothing left alive!
You can't stay here any longer.
You must save yourself.
Caesar.
Your people weakened our city...
by rebelling against|your human masters
But we who survive|will create a new race.
And you and yours|will be brought low
And you shall learn again...
what it is to have a master.
Ha!
You're learning already|Clever ape.
Oh, no.
Ape.
Clever ape
But then you always were clever.
I was told how you chose|your own name.
But every Caesar must have his Brutus.|Did you know that, ape?
Do you understand that, ape?
And now Ape City|is about to lose its king
No, Kolp! No!
Now fight like apes!
Stop! No killing.
Take them captive.
Get moving.
No. No, no, no. Don't kill them.|Take them prisoner.
No.
No, Virgil.
All right, Virgil.
Let's go home.
No prisoners.|No prisoners!
Dismount.
Aldo! Aldo!
Now we go back...
to our city!
Hail Caesar!|Hail Caesar!
Caesar! Caesar!
Caesar!
Caesar! Caesar!
Let the humans go, Virgil.|All of them.
No
They stay. Aldo says what we do now.
They have done nothing.|They shall go free.
You like humans?|You want them out of the corral?
All right. Kill 'em.
Kill 'em.
Kill them all.
Stop. Stop.|No more killing, Aldo
Put down your weapons.|Take them back to the armory.
No. We shall keep the guns|Move, Caesar.
Or we shall kill you.
let alone an ape child.
