Dixon at first thought the apes were mimicking and imitating human behavior.
Lewis Dixon (Bradford Dillman) and research associate Dr. Two scientists were called to the Zoo to observe the apes: animal psychiatrist Dr. In a guardhouse jail on the military grounds, the apes had discarded their spacesuits and changed into their normal clothing.Ī police escort took them to the Los Angeles Zoo Infirmary where they were again caged in a large enclosure, and disconsolate Zira complained: "This cage stinks of gorilla." Milo tried to make sense of what had happened to them: "We have traveled from Earth's future to Earth's past." Although they had seen Earth's destruction, they had barely escaped through a time warp: "We have passed through a backward disturbance in time." The date meter moved backwards when the shock-wave hit their ship: "We have returned to Earth nearly 2,000 years before its destruction." Milo encouraged them to remain silent about what would occur in Earth's future, utter destruction caused by an "ape war of aggression." Present-day apes in the year 1973 could not talk, and Milo suggested for the moment: "We should follow their example." The three were secretly transported to the Marine Corps Air Station at El Palomar, California, to be "hidden from the public" and "quarantined." The ape-chimpanzees, presumed to be vegetarians, were fed oranges (which they ate on plates with cutlery), while awaiting transfer to the sickbay infirmary of a local zoo. When they removed their helmets, General Winthrop (Harry Lauter) in charge was astonished by the sight of three apes: archaeologist Cornelius (Roddy McDowall) and his wife, vet and animal psychologist Zira (Kim Hunter), and their 'genius' colleague Milo (Sal Mineo). When the hatch was opened, three white space-suited astronauts emerged. The capsule was hauled by a towline to a nearby beach where USMC soldiers, trucks and jeeps awaited. This third film opened with a helicopter transmitting a report of a downed spacecraft "just outside the surf line," initiating a pickup and recovery operation off the Pacific coast. And one of its satellites, a green and insignificant planet, is now dead." The preceding second film of the series, Beneath the Planet of the Apes (1970), concluded with the detonation of the Alpha-Omega nuclear bomb and the destruction of Earth, as described by the narrator's (Paul Frees) voice-over: "In one of the countless billions of galaxies in the universe lies a medium-sized star.
