:17:00
then we shall
all be equals
:17:02
and remain so until
the end of the world.
:17:06
Which may be sooner
than you think.
:17:08
You are such a pessimist!
:17:09
or a prophet.
:17:11
Now that apes
are at the helm,
:17:13
the Earth will sail
safely through space
:17:16
until the end of time,
:17:17
and Virgil says
time has no end,
:17:20
so you see
I cannot believe you.
:17:22
Would you believe it
if you heard it
:17:25
from the lips
of your own parents?
:17:29
Are my parents alive?
:17:32
No, but their images
and their voices are.
:17:36
MacDonald, when you talk
about my parents,
:17:39
please do not speak
in riddles.
:17:41
I cannot see them.
I cannot hear them.
:17:43
They came out
of the future.
:17:45
They cannot
give me knowledge.
:17:47
Caesar,
you can see them.
:17:51
You can hear them,
:17:53
and they can
give you knowledge.
:17:55
How?
:17:57
Under the dead city
where we once lived
:18:00
in the archives near
the old command post,
:18:03
there are tapes..
sealed tapes..
:18:05
of Cornelius and Zira
:18:07
being examined by officials
of the American government.
:18:10
When my brother was
Governor Breck's assistant,
:18:12
he told me about them.
:18:14
I know where they are,
:18:17
and I know that they
concern Earth's future,
:18:19
from which
your parents came.
:18:20
But the city
was flattened.
:18:22
The bomb left nothing.
:18:24
Except, I suspect...
:18:27
the archive section.
:18:29
I ndeed, many sections
of the underground city
:18:31
were designed
to survive the impact
:18:34
of a 1 0-megaton overblast.
:18:36
Well, then the tapes and
pictures of my parents..
:18:38
Are still down there.
:18:41
ohh...
:18:43
oh, MacDonald.
:18:45
I want to see
what they look like.
:18:48
I suppose
every orphan does.
:18:53
I want to hear
:18:55
what they thought
and knew.
