Chairman of the President's Committee of Inquiry: [testing Lewis's assertion that the apes can speak] What is your name? Dr. Zira: Zira. Chairman of the President's Committee of Inquiry: One might as well be talking to a parrot. Dr. Zira: A parrot? Chairman of the President's Committee of Inquiry: What did I tell you? Mechanical mimicry. Unique in an ape, vocally, without a doubt, but... does the other one talk? Cornelius: Only when she lets me.
