WHERE MONKEYS LIVE.

ROGER.

IN THE JUNGLE.

GOOD, MONKEYS LIVE

IN THE JUNGLE AND

WHO KNOWS WHAT THEY DO

IN THE JUNGLE?

MISTY.

THEY SWING ON TREES.

THAT'S RIGHT, THEY SWING

IN TREES AND THEY

TAKE CARE OF THEIR FAMILIES

LIKE WE DO AND OF COURSE

MONKEYS HAVE TO EAT.

WHO CAN TELL ME WHAT

MONKEYS EAT.

BANANAS.

VERY GOOD.

MONKEYS EAT BANANAS AND THEY

ALSO EAT LEAVES AND BERRIES,

AND SOME MONKEYS EAT RAW MEAT.

EWWW.

YEAH, MONKEYS THAT EAT MEAT

ARE CALLED CARNIVORES.

CARNIVORES MEANS MEAT EATERS.

NOW CAN YOU GUYS

ALL SAY CARNIVORE?

CARNIVORES.

VERY GOOD.

YES BILLY?

IS CARNIVORE...

IS THAT LIKE T-REX?

YES, T-REX

IS A DINOSAUR AND

HE WAS A CARNIVORE.

IN FACT A LOT OF DINOSAURS

WERE MEAT EATERS.

AND YOU KNOW WHAT ELSE?

LIONS, TIGERS, AND

CATS AND DOGS.

JUST LIKE YOU GUYS HAVE AT

HOME, THEY'RE CARNIVORES ALSO.

YES MISTY?

DO MONKEYS EAT TIGERS?

MONKEYS DON'T EXACTLY

EAT TIGERS, NO.

BUT MONKEYS

THAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT

THEY HUNT VERY SMALL ANIMALS,

LIKE LIZARDS AND BIRDS,

AND SOME MONKEYS

EVEN EAT SMALLER MONKEYS.

LIKE PEOPLE DO.

NO ROGER.

PEOPLE DON'T EAT PEOPLE.

WHAT ABOUT JEFFREY DAHMER?

JEFFREY DAHMER WAS DIFFERENT.

HE IS A VERY RARE EXCEPTION.

IN FACT, JEFFREY DAHMER

WAS A VERY VERY SICK MAN.

I THINK PEOPLE ARE MEAN.

LOST HIS FAITH IN HUMANITY.

HEY! HOWDY, NEIGHBOR.

IT'S QUITE A ZOO OUT THERE,

OH, I'M SORRY.

I'M HARRY.

I'M A NEW NEIGHBOR OF YOURS.

I JUST MOVED IN DOWN THE BLOCK.

WHAT DO YOU TAKE ME FOR?

OH RIGHT.

[CHUCKLES]

WELL, INVITING ME IN WOULD STILL

BE A NEIGHBORLY THING TO DO.

I'M BUSY.

OH, COME ON.

THERE'S ALWAYS TIME TO SHOOT

THE BREEZE.

DO YOU KNOW THIS GAYNOR FELLOW?

YEAH, I KNOW HIM.

YOU THINK HE IS A GOOD MAN?

YES, I DO.

BUT YOU GUYS DON'T WANT TO HEAR

THAT.

HEY, I WANNA HEAR THE TRUTH.

WHAT KIND OF GUY IS HE?

MOST HONEST MAN I EVER MET.

HE IS A GOOD FRIEND.

HE IS A GREAT NEIGHBOR.

YEAH.

WOULD YOU GO ON TV AND SAY THAT?

NO.

NO, I DON'T THINK SO.

OH, COME ON.

YOU WANNA HELP HIM, DON'T YOU?

WELL, YEAH.

YEAH.

COME ON IN.

ALRIGHT.

LET ME GET MY CAMERA.

I'LL BE RIGHT BACK.

RIGHT BACK.

* MUSIC

OUCH!

WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?

WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?

GREG, CAN I USE THE PHONE?

SURE.

I TRIED TO CHECK ON MARY AND

KATHY KAYE,

AND THEY WON'T EVEN LET ME NEAR

THE HOUSE.

IT'S OKAY, FRED.

I APPRECIATE IT.

DO YOU MIND IF I USE YOUR VAN?

NO. SURE, SURE.

JIMMY.

[PHONE RINGING]

WE'RE ON.

HELLO.

HI, KATHY.

COULD YOU COME OUT AND PLAY?

I DON'T THINK MY MOM WILL LET

ME.

SHE CAN'T COME OUT.

OKAY.

TELL KATHY TO ASK HER MOMMY IF

SHE CAN PRACTICE THE FIRE DRILL.

KATHY, TELL YOUR MOM THAT

YOUR DAD WANTS TO PRACTICE

THE FIRE DRILL.

ALEX.

SOME MAN WANTS TO SPEAK WITH

YOU.

WE GOTTA GO!

WHY?

COME, WE GOTTA GO NOW.

COME!

ALEX.

THIS IS SPECIAL AGENT PARRISH.

I KNOW YOU'VE BEEN THROUGH A LOT

OF HELL.

IT'S MY JOB TO MAKE SURE YOU'RE

TREATED FAIRLY.

LIKE THOSE BASTARDS BACK AT

THE LAB, HUH?

OKAY.

SET HIM UP IN FRONT OF THE TV.

WE'LL LIGHT THE FIREPLACE--

HARRY.

[OVER PHONE:] IT'S JUST A

MATTER OF TIME BEFORE YOU'RE

CAUGHT.

SHOOT THIS. SHOOT THIS.

ALEX, HI.

I'M--

[OVER PHONE:]SAVE YOURSELF.

AND SPARE YOUR WIFE AND DAUGHTER

THIS ANGUISH.

KEEP MY FAMILY OUT OF THIS,

PARRISH.

I CAN'T DO THAT, ALEX.

TURN YOURSELF IN

AND YOU WILL GET A FAIR TRIAL.

I'VE SEEN YOUR IDEA OF FAIR,

AGENT PARRISH.

FRANKLY, IT SUCKS.

I GOT HIM.

LISTEN.

I'M ON YOUR SIDE.

I'LL DO WHATEVER I CAN HELP YOU.

FRED, YOU KEEP THIS ASSHOLE ON

THE LINE.

ALEX.

I'M HARRY JOHANSEN,

ALEX.

LOOK, YOU DON'T STAND A CHANCE.

THERE ARE TOO MANY PEOPLE OUT

THERE.

I GOT THIS FAR ON MY OWN,

AND I DON'T REMEMBER ANYBODY

ASKING YOU FOR YOUR OPINION.

ALEX, WE CAN HELP YOU.

[OVER PHONE:]ALEX.

HI.

I'M FRED, HIS FRIEND.

YOU WANNA HELP ME?

THEN STAY THE HELL OUT OF MY

WAY.

SON OF A BITCH.

HE'S NEXT DOOR.

WHAT, DO WE NEED AN INVITATION?

LET'S GET THAT SON OF A BITCH.

COME ON, KATHY KAYE.

DADDY!

COME ON.

LET'S GO.

YOU WERE WITH ALEX GAINER

FOR APPROXIMATELY FOUR,

MAYBE FIVE MINUTES.

WHAT DID HE SAY TO YOU?

HE SAID HE WAS INNOCENT.

THAT'S ALL HE SAID.

OH YEAH, AND HE SAID SOMETHING

ABOUT SOMEONE

TRYING TO FUCK HIM OVER.

BUT YOU WOULDN'T KNOW ANYTHING

ABOUT THAT WOULD YOU?

WHY DON'T YOU JUST TELL US

WHERE HE'S AT?

YOU KNOW--

WHAT DID YOU SAY YOUR NAME IS

AGAIN?

OH, SPECIAL AGENT PARRISH.

MUST BE VERY SPECIAL HAVING A

FIRST NAME LIKE "SPECIAL".

ARE YOU AWARE THAT CONSPIRING

WITH A FELON IS A SERIOUS

CHARGE?

YOU MEAN A SUSPECT, DON'T YOU?

OR DID "INNOCENT UNTIL PROVEN

GUILTY" GO OUT WITH THE BILL OF

RIGHTS?

LISTEN, I'M TIRED OF YOUR

SARCASM.

ANSWER THE FUCKING QUESTIONS.

YOU'RE TRYING TO SQUEEZE

SOMETHING THAT AIN'T THERE,

SPECIAL.

PLAIN AND SIMPLE.

NOW, WHY DON'T YOU ARREST ME OR

LET ME GO?

WELL, YOU WILL YOU NOTIFY ME

THE NEXT TIME YOU MAKE CONTACT

WITH GAINER,

'CAUSE IF YOU DON'T,

I SEE TO IT WE NEVER WORK AGAIN.

NOT EVEN IN MONTANA.

YOU'RE FREE TO LEAVE.

HAVE A GOOD DAY.

PUT A TAIL ON HIM.

* MUSIC

KATHY.

COME ON.

CAREFUL.

YOU, MY FRIEND,

ARE IN A LOT OF TROUBLE.

THANKS FOR TAKING US IN,

SENSEI.

WE JUST DON'T KNOW WHERE ELSE WE

COULD GO.

ALRIGHT, CUE UP THE TAPE,

DON'T LET IT OUT OF YOUR SIGHT.

GOT IT.

DID YOU REALLY TALK TO HIM,

HARRY?

DID YOU?

YEAH, I MEAN, WHAT WAS IT

LIKE?

NASTY, [INDISTINCT]?

OH SURE, SURE.

YEAH, SO DID HE DO IT?

I MEAN, DID HE KILL THAT COP?

I MEAN, HE DID DO IT, DIDN'T HE,

HARRY?

OH, GET OUT OF MY FACE.

[SPEAKING INDISTINCTLY]

STOP THE COUNTING.

I'VE GOTTA TALK TO CHARLIE.

NOW.

HARRY.

HARRY, WAIT.

WHERE'S MY COPY?

THERE ISN'T ANY.

THAT'S NOT PROCEDURE.

I KNOW THAT.

I DIDN'T HAVE TIME.

LOOK, DO YOU WANT THE SCOOP ON

GAINER, OR NOT?

I WANNA KNOW WHAT THE HELL

YOU'RE GONNA SAY.

I GOT 3 MILLION VIEWERS THAT

I'VE GOTTA THINK ABOUT.

WELL, WHILE YOU'RE THINKING

ABOUT YOUR VIEWERS,

I'M GONNA BE ON THE AIR.

THE HELL YOU WILL.

LOOK, CHARLIE.

THIS IS THE STORY.

EVERYBODY OUT THERE WANTS IT.

I GOT IT.

HARRY, DON'T DO THIS.

I WAS RIGHT THERE WITH HIM,

CHARLIE.

AND I LIVED TO TELL THE STORY.

EVERY TOM, DICK, AND JANE IN

TELEVISIONLAND IS GOING TO

BE WATCHING THIS.

TRUST ME.

CAN I, HARRY?

I KNOW WHAT I'M DOING.

DON'T LET HIM DO IT, CHARLIE.

HE'LL GET YOU ANOTHER LAW SUIT.

SHUT UP!

[CRYING]

I'M HARRY JOHANSEN WITH CHANNEL

12 NEWS.

IF YOU'VE BEEN FOLLOWING THE

STORY

YOU KNOW THAT ALL OTHER STATIONS

HAVE CONDEMNED ALEX GAINER AS

GUILTY.

I THINK THERE'S ANOTHER SIDE OF

THE STORY.

I WAS FORTUNATE ENOUGH TO TALK

TO GAINER JUST A FEW HOURS AGO.

HE TOLD ME HE WAS INNOCENT

AND FOR SOME REASON,

I BELIEVED HIM.

YOU WANT A STORY?

WHY DON'T YOU TELL YOUR VIEWERS

THAT I WAS SET UP [INDISTINCT]?

THEY'RE DOING EVIL, WICKED

THINGS TO PEOPLE.

YOU GUYS ARE COMPLETELY MISSING

THE POINT.

THIS WHOLE THING IS NOT EVEN

ABOUT ME.

WHAT IS IT ABOUT THEN?

I WISH I KNEW.

ALEX, DID YOU KILL THOSE

PEOPLE?

I WAS JUST DEFENDING MYSELF.

THEY WERE TRYING TO KILL ME.

WHY WOULD THE POLICE

DEPARTMENT OR THE SCORE OF

FEDERAL AGENTS

BE RUNNING AFTER A SECOND GRADE

SCHOOL TEACHER?

SOMEONE WHO SAYS HE'S JUST

TRYING TO PROTECT HIS FAMILY.

IT'S A GOOD QUESTION TO ASK

YOURSELVES.

MAYBE THERE'S SOMETHING WE DON'T

SEE HERE.

SOME HIDDEN AGENDA, PERHAPS?

ANOTHER PIECE OF THE PUZZLE.

AT ANY RATE,

I THINK THAT BEFORE WE BECOME

JUDGE AND JURY,

ALEX GAINER SHOULD HAVE HIS SAY.

AFTER ALL,

WHAT IF HE IS INNOCENT?

CAN YOU BELIEVE THIS?

THAT SON OF A BITCH

IS GONNA GET A JOB

WITH BARBARA WALTERS.

I'M NOT GONNA LET YOU GIVE UP.

SURE FEELS LIKE

THE END OF THE WORLD.

I'VE TALKED TO EVERYBODY

I CAN THINK OF.

I'VE DONE EVERYTHING

I CAN THINK OF.

I DON'T THINK IT'S GONNA HAPPEN.

I DON'T THINK I CAN PULL THIS

OFF.

JOHANSEN'S DESK.

IS HARRY JOHANSEN THERE,

PLEASE?

YES, JUST ONE MOMENT.

HARRY,

I THINK IT'S ALEX GAINER.

GIVE ME THAT.

THIS IS HARRY.

THIS IS ALEX GAINER.

YOU WANTED A STORY?

WELL, YOU GOT IT.

ON ONE CONDITION.

LIVE.

LIVE.

GOVERNOR.

I HAD THEM RUN A PROFILE ON

WEST-TECH.

AND?

THEY'RE STONEWALLING US.

WE'RE NOT ON A NEED-TO-KNOW

BASIS.

IT WILL TAKE A WEEK TO GET

CLEARANCE.

THEY'RE GONNA KILL THAT SON OF

A BITCH.

AND EVERY MAN, WOMAN AND CHILD

ARE GONNA WITNESS IT LIVE.

AND WE'RE NOT GONNA BENEFIT

FROM IT.

IF I'M GONNA BE SUCKED INTO

THIS

I'M SURE AS HELL WANNA SEE IT

COMING.

THEY'RE NOT GONNA KILL THIS GUY

IF I CAN HELP IT.

GET A HOLD OF SENATOR BANES FOR

ME RIGHT AWAY.

NOW YOU'RE TALKING.

IF I DON'T KNOW BETTER, HARRY,

I'D SAY YOU'RE NERVOUS.

DAMN RIGHT I AM.

PROFESSIONAL ANXIETY, KID.

SOMETHING THEY DON'T TEACH IN

SCHOOL.

YEAH, WELL, WHEN YOU GO IN

THERE JUST BE CAREFUL.

REMEMBER EVERYBODY ELSE IS

SAYING THIS GUY IS A LOONY TUNE.

WELL, I DON'T BUY THAT.

I DON'T JUST BUY WHAT OTHER

PEOPLE SAY

BUT WHEN THINGS GET DOWN AND

DIRTY

I NEVER KNOW WHICH IT'S GONNA

GO.

YEAH, JUST TELL ME WHERE YOU

WANT THE CAMERA.

GOOD KID.

LOOK.

IF THINGS GO WRONG IN THERE--

OH HARRY, I'M GONNA GET ALL

CHOKED UP--

HEY, LISTEN TO ME.

IF THINGS GO WRONG IN THERE,

YOU WILL BE BEHIND ME,

WON'T YOU?

WHY I CAN'T I JUST ZOOM IN ON A

THANKS FOR COMING, HARRY.

YOU'RE CAUSING QUITE A STIR

HERE, YOU KNOW?

HOW'S THE FAMILY.

I'M A LUCKY MAN, HARRY.

MY FAMILY LOVES ME

UNCONDITIONALLY.

HAH.

WELL, YOU ARE A LUCKY MAN.

MY WIFE LEFT ME FOR CRAIG

STEVENS,

THE WACKY WEATHER MAN.

I NEVER KNEW WHAT WAS COMING.

SO WHY DO YOU BELIEVE ME,

HARRY?

NO ONE ELSE SEEMS TO.

WELL, I'M MAY NOT BE THE

BRIGHTEST GUY IN THE WORLD,

BUT I KNOW PEOPLE.

I'VE SEEN A LOT OF MURDERERS IN

MY DAY,

AND I DON'T THINK YOU ARE ONE.

ARE YOU READY?

UH-HUH YEAH.

GOOD. OKAY. SHOOT.

YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO HELP ME

HERE, ALEX.

HELP ME TO HELP YOU.

LOOK, I NEVER WANTED FOR ANY

OF THIS TO HAPPEN.

I'M JUST YOUR INNOCENT GUY.

ALEX, COME ON, COME ON.

THEY'RE TRYING TO KILL YOU.

YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO GIVE ME

MORE

THAN "I'M JUST A REGULAR GUY".

YOU WANT MORE?

YEAH!

LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING,

MAN.

THEY USED ME LIKE SOME KIND OF

HUMAN GUINEA PIG

IN THIS RESEARCH LABORATORY.

MY ONLY ALTERNATIVE WAS TO DIE.

THIS IS GOOD.

BARBIE, GET IN CLOSE.

ZOOM IN REAL TIGHT.

I KNOW THAT IF I HAD GONE ALONG

WITH WHAT THEY WANTED ME TO DO,

I'D BE DEAD ON SOME SLAB

NAMES.

ALL I PICKED UP WAS KELLY.

KELLY.

OKAY, ALRIGHT.

HOW DID THIS BEGIN?

TELL ME HOW IT STARTED.

I SAW POLICE CARS.

THE NEXT THING I KNOW

THERE'S A GUY IN MY CAR

WITH A GUN TO MY HEAD,

PANICKING.

YOU WERE KIDNAPPED?

I THOUGHT HE WAS GONNA SHOOT

ME.

[RADIO CHATTER]

THEY SHOT MY ARM.

I MEAN, I WAS FULL OF CHEMICALS,

DRUGS.

I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT IT WAS.

ALL I CAN REMEMBER WAS THE PAIN.

* MUSIC

OTHERS?

THERE ARE MORE?

YEAH.

THEY WERE INDIGENOUS.

UH, MEXICANS.

ILLEGAL ALIENS.

THEY ONLY WANTED ME BECAUSE--

BECAUSE WHAT?

WHY?

BECAUSE THEY SAID I WAS LIKE

THEM.

I WAS STRONGER.

THE OTHERS DID NOT LAST.

THEY WERE TALKING ABOUT

SOLDIERS.

CREATING WARRIORS THAT COULD

KILL WITHOUT REMORSE.

MAKING THEM INVINCIBLE.

JESUS CHRIST.

LOOK.

YOU GOTTA BELIEVE ME, HARRY.

I DIDN'T WANNA HURT ANYBODY.

I JUST WANT MY LIFE BACK.

I BELIEVE YOU, ALEX.

HEY, HARRY.

WE GOTTA GET THIS IN.

WE GOT COMPANY.

YOU SON OF A BITCH!

I DIDN'T DO THIS.

YOU SET ME UP.

I DIDN'T DO THIS.

HARRY!

GIVE ME THE TAPE.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

GIVE IT BACK TO ME.

HEY, HAVEN'T YOU HEARD OF THE

FIRST AMENDMENT?

HEY, THAT'S MY CAMERA.

WHERE DO YOU THINK--

THAT'S MY CAMERA,

COME BACK HERE.

HARRY, THEY TOOK MY CAMERA.

ALEX, YOU'RE SURROUNDED.

TRYING TO LEAVE RIGHT NOW WOULD

BE REALLY FOOLISH.

THINK ABOUT YOUR FAMILY.

BYE.

DON'T YOU GUYS EVER SMILE?

HEY, HARRY.

WHAT?

I GOT THE TAPE.

[LAUGHS]

[INDISTINCT] THE TAPE,

THE INTERVIEW.

OH JESUS,

HE'S NEVER GONNA LIVE TO SEE IT.

LET'S GET OUT OF HERE.

IT'S BURNING RIGHT NOW ISNT IT?

THE ORGANS, THE MUSCLES,

THE BLOOD, THE GREY MATTER.

THEY WILL ALL COLLAPSE.

YOU'LL DIE.

THERE'S A WAY OUT.

THERE'S AN ANTIDOTE BACK AT THE

YOU TURN YOURSELF IN

YOU CAN LIVE.

JAIL, RIGHT?

JUST LIKE YOU TRIED TO THROW ME

OFF THE CLIFF.

I DIDN'T DO THAT, ALEX.

I'M HERE TO HELP YOU.

WHAT GIVES ME THE RIGHT?

I'M A PATRIOT.

I LOVE THIS COUNTRY.

NOBODY CARES HOW MANY SACRIFICES

ARE MADE TO WIN THE WAR.

THEY JUST WANT RESULTS.

THEM.

IT'S NOTHING TO DO WITH YOU.

NOTHING PERSONAL.

YOU JUST WERE AT THE WRONG PLACE

AT THE WRONG TIME.

LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING.

YESTERDAY A SINGLE INDIVIDUAL

TAUGHT HIS COUNTRY

A VERY BIG LESSON.

ALEX GAINER,

THE MAN EVERYONE BRANDED

AS A MURDERER

TURNED OUT TO BE INNOCENT.

AND THE ANIMAL THAT OUR

GOVERNMENT

SAID HAD TO BE DESTROYED

TUNED OUT TO BE A LAMB BEING LED

TO SLAUGHTER.

IRONICALLY, THE FINAL MOVEMENTS

IN THIS GROTESQUE

SYMPHONY PLAYED ITSELF OUT

RIGHT HERE, IN THIS CITY MALL,

A SYMBOL OF AMERICAN

CULTURE TODAY.

BECAUSE IT'S IN PLACES LIKE

THIS ALL ACROSS THE COUNTRY

THAT PEOPLE FROM ALL

WALKS OF LIFE COME TOGETHER

AND TRY TO IMPROVE

THEIR LIVES BY BUYING WHATEVER'S

OFFERED TO THEM.

ALEX GAINER WOULD NOT

SETTLE FOR THAT.

HE WOULD NOT ACCEPT BUSINESS

AS USUAL.

AGAINST ALL ODDS, HE STOOD UP

FOR WHAT HE BELIEVED IN,

AND ALONE HE DREW A LINE AGAINST

A FLAGRANT ABUSE OF POWER

AND TRUST.

A SECOND GRADE SCHOOL TEACHER,

A MAN WHO DEVOTED HIS LIFE TO

CHILDREN HAS TAUGHT

THEM THE ULTIMATE

CIVIC LESSON,

THAT ONE PERSON ACTING ALONE CAN

MAKE A DIFFERENCE.

AND THAT THE FUTURE OF

OUR DEMOCRACY

IS IN THE HANDS OF EVERY

SINGLE ONE OF US.

I HOPE HE WILL BE AN EXAMPLE

TO US ALL.

THIS IS HARRY JOHANSEN,

ACTION 12 NEWS.

AND CUT.

AND TAKE IT AWAY.
