Cornelius: "Could a sheepdog cook?... or clean the house? ... or do the marketing for the One of the most debated topics POTA fans groceries with a list from its mistress? ... or wait have argued over has to do with whether or not on tables?" Caesar was successful in changing the Future. This debate has its roots in a scene in ESCAPE Zira: "Or, after three more centuries, turn the FROM THE PLANET OF THE APES tables on their owners?" [hereafterwards just ESCAPE], where Hasslein and two professional interrogators [E-1 and E-2] Hasslein: "How?" question Cornelius and Zira at Camp XI. Cornelius: "Th-they became alert to the, uh, Cornelius says (to E-2), "As an archaeologist, I concept of slavery.

Man destroys man! but then, on an historic day which is Apes do not destroy apes!" commemorated by my species, and fully documented in the Secret Scrolls, there came Hasslein: "Cornelius, this is not an interracial Aldo.

We do not deny a word which had been spoken to him, oh, time the possibility of man's decline and fall; all we without number by humans. He said... 'No.'..." want to find out is how Apes rose." Hasslein: "So that's how it all started." Cornelius: "Well... it began, uh, in our prehistory with the plague that fell upon dogs." Those who argue that Caesar did change the Future often cite Cornelius' reference to "two Zira: "And cats." centuries" -- which is actually "... less than two centuries..." -- during which Apes progressed Cornelius: "Hundreds and thousands of them from performing tricks (as Pets) to performing died, and hundreds and thousands of them had services (as Slaves). Also cited is Zira's to be destroyed, in order to prevent the, uh, reference to a time period of "... after three spread of infection." more centuries..." when Apes turned the tables on their owners. It is only after this Zira: "There were dog bonfires." approximately five-century period that an ape named "Aldo" appeared and "spoke a word" -- Cornelius: "Yes.

I mean, he might kill his brother, but he could not kill his dog. So... I've argued before that these references to 2 humans took primitive apes as pets." and 3 centuries contradict what Cornelius had told the Commission regarding the English Zira: "Primitive and dumb, but still twenty times language. When asked, "Cornelius, do you and more intelligent than dogs or cats." your lawfully-wedded spouse speak any language other than English?" he replies, "What Cornelius: "Correct. They were quartered in is 'English'? I speak the language taught to me cages, but they lived and moved freely in by my father and mother, who were taught by human homes.
