You ask me to help you? Man is evil! Capable of nothing but destruction!

What's that?

Never to speak!

What the hell would I have to say to a gorilla?

Someone, or something, has outwitted the intelligence of the gorillas.

That shouldn't be difficult.

In one of the countless billions of galaxies in the universe, lies a medium-sized star, and one of its satellites, a green and insignificant planet, is now dead.
