All language subtitles for Planet of the Apes - 1x12 The Cure

Why don't you stay
and make your home here?

That's a good question.
I guess the reason is that, uh,

Virdon's got an itch
in his feet, and, uh,

I got rocks in my head,
which is why I go along.

We're taking a survey of the far side
of every hill on the horizon.

I'd like to give you a better answer,
but I can't think of one.

Daughter?

Amy?

Will you say good-bye?

No. You're a stranger
from another world.

I don't know how to
talk to men from another world.

I'm sorry Amy's upset.

I expected her to be,
I know my daughter.

- I wish you well.
- Thank you for everything, Talbert.

You ready?
Let's go.

- Bye.
- Bye-bye.

Maybe they will
come back someday.

No. Never.

All right, now, move it along.

Come on, move along.

I'm just transferring these two
to the workforce in the next village.

Father, what's wrong?

It's-It's nothing, I'm...

just a little tired.

A little tired.

Ha!

If I were only young
and strong again.

Urko, a message from Trion.

The troopers report the humans
have sleeping sickness.

I'll do better next time.

Urko, we have a bet.
The best two of three.

I haven't got time
to play games!

What's the matter, Galen,
you hear something?

Not yet.

Expecting company?

Trouble.

Well, what is this, crystal ball time?
Let us in on it.

What's the matter, Galen?
Something's bothering you.

You are.

I didn't like what you did.

- When?
- When I joined up with you two.

I knew I would have to face
the same dangers that you face.

In fact, Urko
has probably told his gorillas...

that I am first priority
on his death list.

With my own people,
I'm a renegade,

I accept that.

But I did think,
at least,

that we would try
to protect each other.

Hey-Hey, who's not protecting what?
Or did I miss something?

Galen, I still don't understand
what it is.

If you tell me what it is,
I'll correct it if I can.

You can't put water
back into a broken bottle.

Time and time again.
you have cautioned us...

that we must be very careful
not to tell anyone about ourselves.

Amy.

Hi, Amy.

I'm in love with you.

Amy, you met me one week ago.

You'll forget me in two.

Will you forget me?

- No.
- Alan,

take me with you, please.

I can't.
I've told you why.

You're married.
I don't believe you.

You're lying.

Amy, now listen.

I'm a stranger here.

I come from a world...

that's very difficult
to explain.

It's this world, really, but in a
different time. A long, long time ago.

Now, you must not tell anyone.

But I want you
to understand,

where I come from,
where I hope to return someday...

In that world,
I do have a family.

Lies!
There is no other world.

First, you made her angry,

then you told her
who we are.

Not only did you trust her with your
life, but you trusted her with ours.

You're right, Galen,
I shouldn't have told her.

She- Well, she was hurt,
and I...

wanted to try to make her understand
why I couldn't stay.

That's not an excuse, it's-
I'd just like you to know why.

I am truly sorry.

I didn't think that
you meant any harm.

It just did seem like
such a needless risk to take.

It was.

Chalk it up to, uh,
the fact I'm only a human.

Oh, yes.

Sometimes,

I forget that humans can't help
the weaknesses they have.

Father!

Father!

Order.

Please, come to order!

You babble on
like frightened humans.

There is much at stake here, Zaius!

Our historians have brought
this to my attention.

In the early part of the Ornan period,

a fever, which struck
only the human population,

killed several hundred
in a section of the rural zone.

The entire sector became barren
for years afterward!

I am aware of the possible loss
of goods and labor,

that is why I have ordered
Trion quarantined.

Quarantined?
Burn it!

Before we consider
any such measures, Urko,

our chief medical officer,
Zoran, has something to say.

Members of the council, I have
done considerable research...

in the diseases
of the lower species.

and I have developed
certain theories of treat-

Theories! Excuses to waste time
and resources...

on-on intellectual games!

I intend to test
my theories in trial.

An entire labor force
of a whole section is being threatened.

and he wants to test theories.

Trion is quite isolated.

And with the quarantine,
the risk is reduced greatly.

If I can save Trion,
we need fear this fever never again!

Zero loss of labor
and goods in the future.

- If you can save Trion!
- Vote!

Vote. Those in favor of allowing Zoran
to proceed to Trion?

- Aye!
- No!

So be it.

I will be at Trion
to enforce the quarantine.

And if you fail-

You will not regret
your faith in me.

Well, good morning, friend.

- Oh!
- I'm sorry, sir.

Wait a minute,
you're from Trion, aren't you?

- You're the coal carrier.
- Not anymore.

- What do you mean not anymore?
- I was lucky.

I was outside the village.
Guards let no one in, no one out.

- A man was shot trying to run.
- What are you talking about?

It's quarantined, a plague. I was told
many are dead, and more will die-many more.

- You know the names of any of the dead?
- Nothing, Nothing,

I was spared.
Even the name could carry the fever.

Wait a minute, Wait!

A guy doesn't have to be a mind reader
to figure out what you're thinking about.

Oh, no. Will you tell him
that it makes no sense...

to go waltzing into
a plague-ridden village?

Yes, if you did go back,
what good could you do?

I don't know.

But what if we were
the ones who started it?

Pete, what if we walked in there
carrying some kind of a virus...

harmless to us, but deadly to them?

Yes, but if you went back, isn't there a
possibility that you could catch the fever?

Yes, there is. If we didn't get shot
on the way trying to get in!

Aw, come on, Alan.
Look, this makes no sense.

Pete, we've gotta try.

We've got to at least
try to help them.

Did I say that we didn't at least
have to try? All right, we'll try.

I'm in, I'm in!

You just wait one minute!
Now you just wait!

Are you planning to include me
in on this trip back to Trion?

Well, yes, I figured-

I hoped we would stay together.

But we have just been
through all that!

Just because that girl is in love
with you, should I risk my life?

No. There's no reason
at all for that.

Ha. And should you risk your life
by going back there?

But you stubbornly
insist upon doing it, don't you?

I am getting to be
no better than a human.

Come on, let's go!

What are you doing here?
Haven't you heard there's fever?

We are somewhat familiar with
the problem, and we would like to help.

Council has sent the chief physician. Now
turn around, and go back where you came from.

- Look, all we want is to try-
- I have orders to kill anyone...

that crosses the quarantine line.

Now, move!

Look!

Stagnant water... and mosquitoes.

Yeah, come on.

Help me, please.

- No question about it.
- Malaria.

Okay, let's get started.

- Alan!
- Amy!

My father.
My father's dead.

Amy, I'm so sorry.

Amy, how do you feel?

I'm fine.
I'm very tired, but I'm not sick.

All right, listen to me,
all of you.

Come in here and listen.

Hurry people, please.
There's no time to lose.

Closer.

All right.

Now the first thing.
we've got to bury the dead immediately.

If we don't, we're going to be fighting
fever and dysentery and worse.

We've gotta set fires, gotta make a lot
of smoke to keep away the mosquitoes.

A treatment center's
got to be set up right away.

Work parties
have to be organized.

- Everyone who is still not-
- Silence!

- You, who are you?
- Just a man trying to help.

I am Zoran, chief medical officer
of the Supreme Council.

This is my assistant, Inta.

I have complete authority
here now.

We're happy to see you.
Perhaps we can work together.

A pit will be dug at once,

It will be filled with water,
and I will add certain medications.

Everyone will disrobe
and immerse themselves.

Each one of you will be bled. The amount
determined by your size and the age,

and there will be no physical contact
between men and women...

until this disease is under control.

You seem to have a talent for organizing.

You'll supervise the digging of the pit. Inta!

- You're whistling Dixie. Doc.
- I'm whistling?

I shall speak more clearly.
You still hear whistling?

- Something wrong with your ears?
- No. what I'm saying-

No, what he is suggesting, sir, is that...

this particular disease, with
which they are both very familiar,

does demand special treatment.

Who are you?
What are you doing in this village?

Well, I am just transferring
these two humans to another farm.

Listen to them, sir.

They are more intelligent
than most.

So, you're familiar with this disease?

- It's malaria.
- Hmm.

How clever,
he even has a name for it.

Inta, go call the guards. I haven't
the time to fool with this man.

Please, sir,
the guards aren't necessary.

Uh, you see, malaria means
simply "bad air."

Like the type you find around those
stagnant pools we passed on our way in here.

You see, sir,
the mosquitoes that live...

around that stagnant
water carry the disease,

- ...and it's communicated by their sting.
- That is enough!

I don't know whether to have you shot
for stupidity, or hanged for insolence!

But, sir-

Germs flying through the air
on the backs of insects?

Disease of the lower species
are transmitted from bodily contact.

This one isn't.

You are challenging my word.

But, sir, he did not mean to be insolent.

Just like most humans,
fear puts foolish words in their mouths.

Yes, I have a quick cure for that disease.

But, sir, they do both know
something about medicine.

That is impossible!

Arrest these two.

Arrest them?
I'll shoot them.

They crossed the quarantine line
against my orders.

- As you please.
- I protest!

Has he had bodily contact
with the lower species? He has malaria.

What is he saying?
What is malaria?

You said the fever strikes only humans.
Explain.

I- I can't.

I can't explain.
I can't.

Neesa. Neesa's dead.

You dare tell that to Urko.

I want guards
at that end of the road,

and I want more guards
at that end of the road.

Watch closely, if anyone tries to escape
from the village, shoot them!

- Now move out!
- Urko.

Oh!

Galen, you think
he'll come into the village?

- I don't know, maybe not. Does it matter?
- Only if you want to stay alive a little longer.

You know, maybe we could get away before
Urko has guards posted everywhere.

You were right when you said coming back
here would probably get us into trouble.

And you're probably right
that we should leave right now.

But you won't.

And you. Pete?

I know it sounds silly, Galen,
it does sound silly.

It sounds so silly, I won't even say it.
You know the answer.

I know the answer.
Yeah, I knew the answer before I asked.

I always know the answer. I always
disagree, and I always go along.

But maybe I'm sick...

in the head.

Fire! Fire! Purification by fire!
That's the only course left!

The situation is different now, Zaius!
Apes are being threatened.

Please! We must calm ourselves
and think rationally.

But an ape has died, Zaius!

An ape!
It is no longer a minor problem.

You and your theories.
He oughta be burned with the others!

Urko, you are out of order!

I suggest we hear Zoran's
appraisal of the situation.

I agree.
He has promised us success.

Upon my arrival in Trion,
I discovered that the fever...

was not of the Ornan variety
as related in the textbooks.

I made a discovery of
a rare disease called malaria.

Obviously fatal to apes
and to humans,

and obviously not transmitted
through bodily contact.

Then how. Zoran?

I have reason to believe
that the disease grows...

in stagnant pools of water...

and is introduced
into the bloodstream by the bite of...

mosquitoes.

Zoran, are you aware of what
you're asking us to believe?

You can't be serious.

He's got the fever himself.

There are such pools
of stagnant water in Trion.

and humans- and your soldiers-
were exposed to it.

And what do you propose
we do now?

Well, I need several hours to
further reappraise the situation, Zaius.

I will not back down to a mosquito.

Urko, this disease is fatal to our people.

We should use this situation
to develop a cure.

Yes,

perhaps there's
a positive side to this.

We can experiment with the humans.

Even if we lost an entire village,
if an ape cure was developed,

it would be worth it.

Historically, medicine progresses
because of such experimentation.

Yes.

I believe we should
use this opportunity.

So be it.

You will report to us.

Yes, Zaius.

You're very good, ladies.
Very good.

- What are they doing?
- Protective masks and gloves.

We have to send a work crew
down to drain off the stagnant water.

I'm in a most difficult position
with the council.

I have related to them
your mosquito theory.

Of course, in order to save you
from punishment, should we fail,

I told them that
the theory was my own.

You're very generous.

No, not entirely. You see, if I had
told them that I heard it from you,

they would have asked questions: Who you
were, how you came by this information.

Urko especially would be particularly
interested and curious about...

humans who know more
than they should.

I do hope you know
about this disease.

Have we been wrong yet?

You provided a diagnosis-
a name for the disease.

Right or wrong,
it adds up to very little.

What about treatment?

There is a treatment for malaria.
It's quinine.

It's extracted from the bark of a tree,
a tree called a cinchon.

I've never heard of such a tree.

Just beyond the marsh,
there's a heavily wooded area.

Fairly tropical growth,
where a cinchona could grow.

If we're lucky. you will
get a chance to see one.

Down through here, watch the bridge.

Now this swamp's gotta be drained.

Right here.

And remember, no part
of your body exposed.

Good luck, Galen.
The rest of you, come on.

Quick, everybody put their mask on.

Running away, Doctor?

No. the cure for the disease is in
the bark of a certain tree we believe-

"We"? "We believe"?
What do you mean "we"?

I was under the impression
you had the sole authority here.

I am the sole authority here.

I described the tree to them
and we-

they believe it can be
found in the forest,

Why do you cover your faces?
What are you afraid of?

- Mosquitoes.
- Ha!

There are no mosquitoes here.

Ah... missed.

Albino mosquitoes, all white.
Very hard to see.

- Could be.
- Yeah, could be.

Let's go.

Could be,
it's bitter enough.

I'd feel a lot better if we were sure.

- So do I.
- Ugh! Terrible.

That was the first thing
I learned when I was a kid.

- All good medicine tastes are terrible.
- But will it cure the fever?

It won't if we just stand around here.
Let's give it a try.

All right, move over here.
Take as much bark as you can, but quick.

All right, everybody.
Come here, we gotta move fast.

Get rocks, flat stones.

We gotta grind this bark into
powder as quickly as we can.

- Any more deaths?
- One.

- Any more illnesses?
- Two more sick.

Amy.

Oh, Amy, Amy.

I'm sorry,
I wanted to help.

I know, I know, I know, Amy.
It's all right. Don't worry.

Amy, look, we found
what we were looking for,

but you gotta hang on.

You gotta fight it, okay?

Thatta boy, Thatta boy.
Come on.

That's it.
Good. Good.

Okay.

Drink this now.
Come on, drink it.

I know, I know.
Come on, try it again.

Alan, Galen's back.

Another time, another world.

Don't go back.

I love you.
I love you!

Tell me.
Tell me the truth.

I love you.

Don't go back.

Don't leave me.

Don't leave me.

The swamp has been drained.

Good work, Galen.

Another time.

- Another world.
- Another world?

Don't go back.
Don't go back.

Don't go back.

Dr. Zoran! Dr. Zoran!
Come quick to the upper road!

Hurry, hurry,
Kava's sick, he's dying.

Urko, Urko, Kava is sick.
We'll all catch the shaking sickness!

Now we'll see, Doctor. Now we'll see
if the council still believes in you.

This village will burn
and everyone in it. Everyone!

Urko, I promise you
that I will take care of it!

You make empty promises,
and my troops are dying!

Oh, believe me, believe me,
I have the means to cure him.

This is a new medicine!
A new medication.

It's made from the bark of a tree which
I looked for and finally found in time.

You will not experiment
with my troops.

Now! Burn the village now
before we are all destroyed.

No, we are making progress!

This medication. Zoran.
Is it effective?

Yes, yes, it will work.
It will take time-

There is no more time!

How many must die before you do
what must be done? I demand a vote.

You will have your vote, Urko.

No! No more talking!

Urko, I sometimes wonder
what you fear most-

death.
or a few words of reason.

You, I fear you.

All of you, listening to a fool.

Zoran has found a medication.

Perhaps it will work,
perhaps not.

What Urko says is true,

with delay there is risk.

We have come this far.

The answer, right or wrong,
will be in a few hours.

Those in favor
of letting Zoran continue?

- Those against?
- Aye.

Very well.
The decision is mine.

You have
until noon tomorrow.

Thank you, sir.

Fools!

When you are all
dying in pain like Kava...

don't forget
what I told you.

Noon tomorrow.
I don't know.

You told me the medication
worked quickly.

Yes, it does,
but there could be other factors.

We don't know for sure whether
it's a true cinchona tree.

Could be a mutation,
no medicinal value.

It could be a different strain
of malaria that doesn't respond.

So many unknowns.

I was in no position
to bargain with the council.

I know, I understand.

Well, we'll medicate them
again in the morning.

Nothing more we can do now
but wait.

Yes, I suggest that
you get some sleep.

Well, I think I'll get
some air first.

Amy?

Yes?

Your friend...

from the other world.

Yes?

Where is that other world?

Where did he come from?

- Here.
- Here?

Is he an astronaut?

Amy, listen to me.

Is he a-

Shh.

Why, uh, why are you
sneaking up on me?

Oh, I-I was just coming
to look at the girl.

Tell me something, is she
beginning to talk strangely again?

- Strangely?
- Yes, it's the fever.

Oh, it does make her say
the most impossible things.

She's got a very
good imagination though.

Yes, yes,
I, uh, could make no sense of it.

Yeah.

Here, drink this. It'll help you.

Who is it?

- What were those shots?
- Where have you been?

Just a small mercy mission.

- You treated Kava?
- Yeah.

Oh, terrific.
Now he's making house calls.

- You risked your life for an ape?
- His pain is no different.

I'm afraid I left the evidence
behind when I ran.

- Can anyone identify you?
- I don't think so, Pete, It was too dark.

- I wonder if it really matters.
- What do you mean?

Whether Urko believes it was him or me,
the results are the same.

If Zoran loses, Urko wins.
That gives him more freedom,

authority, more power
to run things the way he wants.

What difference does it make?

If we don't come up
with the results by noon.

this whole village
will be ashes.

What is it?

I heard a sound.
There was someone with Kava.

- Who?
- I couldn't see, sir.

Kava, who was it?
Who was it?

Kava, was it Zoran?

Was it Zoran?

Did you drink this?

Yes.

If Kava dies, if they've killed him
with this medicine.

I'll kill you myself.

How's she doing?

She seems to
be resting better.

Her fever's down a little.

When they wake up.
we'll give the second medication.

- We need time.
- Zaius gave me until noon.

If he can control
the situation-

The gorillas are coming!
They'll burn our houses, everything!

There goes the situation.

Urko cannot do this.
He acts independently of the council.

I came here for a victory
of my own.

Urko will not take it away from me.
Not when it is this close.

- Could the council have changed its mind?
- I think not.

This is between
Urko and myself.

- Do we try to get away?
- There's no way for that now.

It looks like our future's
in his hands.

Watch closely. you may see the future
come to a very quick stop.

We are helpless.
We can't run, we have no weapons.

We've got one.

Stand aside.

It is several hours yet
till noon. Urko.

Stand aside, or die with the others
in the village.

- The council voted!
- The council be damned!

That is treason, Urko,
I command you to withdraw.

You command?
You have words, I have weapons.

Would you kill me, Urko?

Before I allow you to let
him kill my troops? Yes.

Listen to me, Urko doesn't care for you.
He thinks of himself first.

He would not let me help Kava.

He would let Kava die
to discredit me!

It is Zoran who thinks
only of himself.

He could not help Kava.
He could help no one.

It appears you were
misinformed, Urko.

It's a lie, a trick.

No!

Last night, somebody came to me
from the village.

- I was dying!
- Silence! I order you.

Urko, you are wrong. They gave me
something to drink, bitter medicine.

The medicine made me better,
It saved my life, Urko.

Urko, I tell you again,

take your troops and withdraw...

while you still have them
to command.

Withdraw!

Withdraw!

I'd like to speak to you
three for a moment, please.

I suppose you'll be
wanting to leave soon.

Right, today.

Well, I'm afraid that's not possible.

- Why?
- I can't let you go.

Oh, but, uh, everything's
under control-

No, no, no,
you don't understand.

I mean, I must tell Zaius
and the others about you.

You see,
I know who you are.

I don't know what
you're talking about.

Please, don't make it
any more difficult than it is.

Your medical knowledge,
the things the girl said in the fever.

I know you are
the two astronauts,

and Galen is with you.

Understand, I-

I deeply appreciate...

what you've done here,
what I've learned from you.

Then how could you
possibly turn us in?

Because you are fugitives.

Zaius wants you, and I am loyal to Zaius.

- Then what we did means nothing to you.
- Oh, no, it does,

It does. it does.
But. uh-

- But we're the lower species.
- Yes.

If we're lower, how come we're smarter?

- No, I can't explain that.
- How will you explain...

that your victory here
is really theirs?

Or do you intend to keep
all the credit for yourself?

No, I, uh, I had no other choice,
I have my position to uphold.

You turn us in,
you think we won't tell Zaius?

He'd never believe you.

He'd believe me.

Very well. Galen.
you may leave.

Oh.

Well, you see,
where they go, I go.

If they stay here, I stay.

Oh, you can't be serious.

Just try me.

But-But,
don't you see they are, uh-

Mmm. I know.

Lower species.

Well, now, Zoran,

you've got a decision to make.

Your loyalty, or your ego.

Ego, ego, I, uh,
am not familiar with that word.

just how are you going to feel,
Doctor, when Zaius finds out...

that you've been
counseled by humans-

every move you made,
every word you spoke.

I suggest that you stay
out of sight for now,

and then leave after dark.

Good.

It's just as bad
the second time...

saying good-bye, I mean,

You'll be all right, Amy.

When I was sick...

I had this terrible dream...

that I told
the apes about you.

and they were
going to hurt you.

What a terrible dream.

That's all it was,
just a dream.

It seemed so real.

There are a lot of things
that seem real...

that...

in time, turn out
to be not so important.

Or they're forgotten.

Someday, I'll have a family.

And I'll tell my children...

about this man from...

another world...

who's the kind of man that...

they should grow up
to be like.

Be happy. Amy.
