"Hey, I think Kong's going for that hole in the sky! He's got hold of this glowing chick or something-"
"RAY! What are we supposed to do now?" shouts Peter. "The monkey's on our side, right?"

"Yes he is! Don't hurt the monke- I mean the ape!"
"This is no time to be arguing taxonomy, Ray! Peter won't understand it anyway!"
"Eryona, Orea-"
"I resent that, Egon-"
The black-bearded man, heedless of the logistical difficulties inherent in kilt-wearing, scrambles over shattered concrete and launches himself towards the ape at a dead run.
