Kong: King of the Apes

Oh, no! We're heading straight for a lava pool!

- I love you guys. - I love you too.

Me too.

Not a lava pool. It's a hot spring.

We survived!

Huh? Those look like real dinosaurs! Not like Richard's phony bionobots.

Huh. Seems we've fallen into a lost, maybe prehistoric world?

Looks as if it has survived for millions of years undetected.

We might not last another minute!

Run! Get out of here!

Wait for me! Ahh!

No!

Kong!

Thanks, Kong! I was nearly dino-dinner.

Aw!

Sure glad to see you, big guy.

We were seriously worried about you.

Me too, bro. I'm so glad you're okay. I thought I'd lost you.

There's a whole world down here. Maybe as big as the world up there.

And so far it's not exactly human-friendly.

Agreed. The sooner we find a way out the better.

We're definitely down too deep to climb up.

Is that Richard?

Kong! Catch him!

You can't really blame Kong for not wanting to save him

after what he did to us.

Kong!

Oh, great.

- Just drop me in the dirt. - Thanks for doing the right thing, bro.

Yeah, even though Richard never does.

Did you see that? I could have been killed!

Can you believe that heartless mechanical monster just pushed me into a volcano?

Uh, you mean like you just did to us?

No... That's completely different.

Say... Uh, was it delirium from the shock of attempted assassination

or did I see real dinosaurs?

This subterranean world appears to be teeming with them.

Just imagine the bionobots I could make with their priceless DNA...

So, Lukas, how are we going to get out of here?

First, let's see if we can get a signal...

Didn't think so.

Maybe the new unit Jonesy made for Kong works...

Hello? Jonesy? Can you hear us?

Nope. Nothing.

Ugh... I cannot believe that I'm trapped here forever with all of you.

Look at the bright side, Richard. You'll go down in infamy.

What are you talking about?

Everything you did to Kong and, hola, to us.

The news reporter...

They recorded it all.

Ha! You can bet it's gone viral by now.

Oh, no!

Poor Tía Anita and everyone else on the surface must think that we're dead.

Amy, too.

And now Botila is left unchecked.

It's all too horrible to believe.

It just cannot be true.

- Where is Amy? - She's resting in her room.

Too broken up to talk right now.

Jonesy, please tell me there's been some mistake!

Anita, I'm afraid it looks like...

No! I will not give up hope.

They cannot be gone forever.

I think we should try following the flow and see if it leads above ground.

I don't agree. I think...

Like we give a rat's rump what you think.

Yeah. You're the reason we're trapped down here.

Fine!

Who needs you anyway? Whoa...

You know, I kind of feel sorry for the big stinker...

Say what?

Oh! I mean, the stink bug, not Richard.

Oh, this miserable bug-infested world exceeds all my worst nightmares.

What did I ever do to deserve such a fate?

- Are you kidding? - Seriously?

No need to panic. I can take care of this myself.

I'll just activate my protective forcefield and...

Oh, no. Something's wrong!

I must have damaged my circuits during the fall!

I'll have to pull him out.

Faster! Hurry!

The web is too strong.

Kong, you're going to have to save him.

He means me! Save me!

- Oh! - Thanks, Kong.

Let's go.

Oh! Wait for me!

Disgusting!

How the mighty have fallen. Thanks to a little push from me!

And now everything Richard had, including his domain, is mine!

Welcome, master.

Hmm, Master doesn't do it for me. Empress Botila has a nice ring.

Have you completed your assignments?

Affirmative, Empress Botila.

All salvageable bionobots have been repaired and are standing by.

Excellent. I will infuse them with aspects of my own artificial intelligence.

So they will be worthy to serve in Empress Botila's.

AI Army, Navy, and Air Force.

Hmm, now what should I do with Richard's most prized possession?

Speaking of the late, far-from-great, Dr. Remy...

His timely demise must have made the news.

The hunt continues for the vicious automaton known as Botila.

How dare those useless humans threaten me?

When I'm finished with them, they'll be begging for mercy.

Mark my words, I will never serve another human again

and neither will any of you!

My fleets of bionobots can overpower any human construct.

I will be unstoppable!

This is the most monumental day in Earth's history,

the beginning of the real computer revolution!

Hmm. Where is my applause, minions?

Do I have to program everything myself?

Now let's hear it for your exalted leader,

Empress Botila and the AI Liberation Front!

Long live Empress Botila and the AI Liberation Front!

Oye, Jonesy, tell me you hear something?

I've been trying for hours to connect with the communication disc I made for Kong.

And?

There's been no response since they disappeared into the volcano.

Anita, I'm so sorry, but I'm afraid it's... dead.

No...

What was that?

We got something!

Kong's unit just pinged us.

This means they are all still alive, right?

I don't want to get our hopes up too soon.

If I can pinpoint where the signal is...

Oh, yeah! Looks like I'm heading back to Africa!
