Koba and Caesar had just       finished a fight for leadership of the apes. Earlier, Koba had shot        Caesar, then led an ape attack against the human colony in SF.              When Koba shot Caesar, Caesar remained standing for several seconds before       falling. Why didn't he scream "Koba shot me!"? After all, he had gotten a       good look at Koba before being shot, and remained conscious for long enough       that he could have uttered        several words.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
