Except for the one I spared

so he could return

and deliver a message.

If they wanted to

relieve me of my command,

theyd have to meet me

here, and do it themselves.

This used to be a weapons depot.

They turned it into a relocation camp

when the crisis was just beginning.

But the weapons are all still here,

inside the mountain.

How many men will be coming?

Probably all of them.

But dont get any ideas,

the only thing they fear

more than me is you apes.

This is a holy war.

All of human history

has led to this moment.

If we lose, weII be

the last of our kind.

It will be a planet of apes,

and weII become your cattle.

Look at you.

You think I am sick, don't you?

I didnt mean to kill your son.

But if his destiny was to

inherit your unholy kingdom...

I am glad I did.

Get back!

So emotional!

I see how conflicted you are.

You are confused in your purpose.

Youre angry at me for something

I did that was an act of war.

But youre taking this

all much far too personally.

What do you think my men

would have done to your apes,

if you had killed me?

Or is killing me more important?

Soldiers everywhere!

How will we get in?

Must get in somehow...

Must get in!

In? In?

No!

No go in! No!

Friends! Friends! No!

No go in!

No go in!

Friend! Friend!

Thank you.

Thank you, friend.

You save our lives!

Sick humans must have

escaped down here!

No, no!

No, no climb! No!

What? What you see?

APE-POCALYPSE

NOW:

Wonder where we are.

No! Friend...

No!

No! No!

No! Come, come!

Come!

Come, come.

No! Come!

Come! Come, come!

Koba...

Sleep.

You cannot save them.

Apes all die here.

- No!

- Yes.

Join me...

If he's still alive in the morning...

He goes back to work

as everyone else.

Or you shoot him.

Come. Come.

Come.

She go in!

Thirsty?

Hide. Quick.

Humans will kill her!

I know what to do! Go!

Are there others out there?

Sweep the area.

Put him in the pen.

Feeling better?

Good.

Then we can talk about escape.

Apes together strong!

- We are the beginning!

- And the end!

Still alive.

Send him to the quarry.

Alone.

Hold on.

What is this?

How did this get in there?

Get him to work.

Thirty-seven.

Fifty-five.

Thirty-seven steps to the adult cage.

Fifty-five to the children.

DONKEY:

You know,

Colonel shoot apes when wall is done.

This wall is madness.

It won't save him.

Anymore that it will save you.

I save myself.

Is there anything

left of you to safe?

Up!

Apes going back to the cage?

You are very brave.

- Brave?

- Brave!

Brave!

Ape?

Me? Ape?

You are...

Nova.

Nova.

Come! Come!

Come to see!

Come to see!

Come! Come to see!

34, 35, 36, 37! 30!

37!

I do.

What now?

What?

No!

No, no! No, no!

Okay.

This is the ape I told you about!

Thank you.

Bad Ape.

Bad Ape.

Bad... Bad Ape.

What's wrong?

We can't keep digging!

It will flood the whole tunnel!

If we don't,

we can't reach the children!

We must keep looking down there...

Find another way to

reach the children.

We must leave now!

More soldiers are coming!

Humans will destroy each other!

And us with them!

WeII have to get the

children out above ground.

How?

You animals!

Who did that?

Who was it?

Was it you?

I love you, son.

Go, go.

Hurry! Let's go!

Caesar, what's wrong?

Hurry.

You must go.

Without you?

No.

Maurice was right.

I am like Koba.

He could not escape his hate.

And I still cannot escape mine.

Move! Go, go!

Go! Go! Go! Go!

Colonel! Colonel!

Where the hell is he?

Hurry up!

Colonel, are you in there?

Colonel?

Donkey! Grenade launcher!

God damn it, donkey!

Get me the launcher!

THE BEGINNING:

THE END:

Don't worry.

Don't worry.

Maurice...

You are home now.

Apes are strong...

With or without me.

Son will know...

who was father.

And what...

Caesar did...

for us.

Caesar...
