-Meanwhile, Bo-Bo finds acceptance with the Temple Tribe.
-An old female adopts him.
-In four years, he is the favorite of everyone.
-In eight years, he is the Alpha-Male.
-But he is always cutoff from other monkeys and their trivial life.
-Now, his gang is the Lord of the city: steal food, leftovers etc.
-There is no more fighting between the two tribes.
-Bo-Bos experience with Humans has helped them but they still sleep in Old Temple.
-Bo-Bo sometimes stares at the mountains, maybe he remembers.
-Thirty years have passed Bo-Bo returns to the mountains.
-He is old, sick, and back at his birthplace after having built an empire.
-Longtooth is long dead.
-Nobody from the Mountain Tribe recognizes him not even his love.
-She has six children and many more kin.
-Nobody accepts him; there is no place for an old monkey in the tribe.
-He moves away from that place to a high flat mountaintop.
-Camera focuses on an Eagle flying high in the sky.
-He stays there until the night.
-Next morning his body is found in the same cave that had given shelter to the two lovers.
He had lived a full and great life. He had known love, hatred, loneliness, brotherhood,dejection, and acceptance and in the process had touched the last frontier of his world.
