Meanwhile, Gôdo, Jiro and Pepe have found a village of apes who are heaving some kind of festival during which members of the village where masks that make them look human. Gebâ shows up and starts looking under masks. When he goes too far, fires a shot in the air and tries to break up the party the villagers grab him, which allows Gôdo, Jiro and Pepe a chance to sneak back out of the village. The villagers drug Gebâ, tie him up and leave him on a slab. From the bushes Gôdo, Jiro and Pepe watch to see what will happen.
