[the sun rose over the bukuvu landscape as the local birds crowed like roosters, awakening moxxie Millie and Ursula from their sleep, awakening in George's treehouse and his bed. They look around to see they were in what they guessed to be his room]

Narrator: After a night of feverish fantasies... the perfectly permed heiress, Ursula Stanhope... and the visiting imps Moxxie and Millie awoke to the melodious music of the Bukuvu bird life, and found themselves venturing forth in search of that defender of the innocent, protector of the weak, and all-around good guy, George of the Jungle.

[they get out of bed as they hear footsteps approaching the room]

Narrator: but that's not who they saw first

[the footsteps reveal to belong to a gorilla wearing reading glasses and an apron holding a breakfast plate.

Moxxie and Millie are surprised but Ursula screams at the top of her lungs

Moxxie and Millie are surprised but Ursula screams at the top of her lungs. The gorilla shouts in shock as well and Ursula backs away as the primate approaches]

Ursula: Get away! Get away! Get away!

[the gorilla who was named simply Ape slowly breaths reassuringly and puts the breakfast plate on the bed. The two imps look to see it's content in the form of cooked fish, eggs, star fruit literally shaped like stars and shish kabob fruit. Millie takes the latter and chomps it down clearly enjoying it

Millie: yummo! This is pretty good

[Ape blushes at the compliment before George comes in with a bunch of bananas calling out]

George; hello!

[But when George takes a step forward, he slips and falls down but is lucky enough to grab the bananas and throw them onto the counter with ease. He then gets back off pounding his chest spitting out feathers from the carpet making a coo-coo sound in the process]

George: feeling better Ursula?

[Ursula gets up and starts walking toward George]

Ursula; Okay. It's that dream, then. I'm still having that psycho dream. Hello.

[ape reaches out his hands for a hand shake but Ursula screams rushing toward George]

George: Oh, no, no! Don't worry! Ape friend. Ape make your breakfast.

Ursula: What does it want? What does it want?

[Ape, clearly offended scoops you a text book looking right at Ursula]

Ape: "it" wants its Physician's Desk Reference, if you don't mind. Unless you'd rather die of dengue fever, of course.

[Moxxie is amazed at such an intelligent gorilla, especially one who reads "Physician's Desk Reference, however, Ursula, who thought she was starting to go crazy laughs hysterically]

Ursula: That is very funny! I thought I heard the monkey talk.

Moxxie: hey! He's not a monkey. He's a gorilla. Even though that is an outdated misconception
