Planet of the Apes (1974) - Episode 11: The Tyrant: Urko really doesn't want these fugitives dead. At any point on the cart ride to Aboro's, he could've had his men overpower and kill all three of them. What? Pete, under the cart, with a pistol, was stopping them? Any decent military unit could receive silent signals to go behind the cart and shoot the compartment full of lead (and shoot Galen and Alan the moment they protested). This is just getting old.

I'm reading Secrets & Lies right now, so one thing I did find amusing was Aboro's faulty authentication of Zaius' assistant: his name is Octavio? And he is a cripple? Ah, so I was speaking to Octavio. Uh, nope, sorry Aboro, ole buddy. That'd be Galen, the surprisingly unremarkable ape on the run. Reading blogs at work? Click to escape to a suitable site!
