Transcript
Tarzan of the Apes from the novels by Edgar Rice Burroughs, when Mr. James H. Pierce as Tarzan and Mr. Anne Burroughs as Jane Potter. This is an American Gold Seal production released by the World Broadcasting System and Associated Station.
Tarzan, learning that Jane Potter has been abducted by the pirates and taken aboard ship, swims alone to rescue her. He succeeds in getting aboard with James' health, and after a fight with the pirates, takes Jane in his arms and leaps overboard.
They are attacked by a shark, but Tarzan kills it. Professor Porter and his party, putting out on a leaking boat to aid Jane, are swamped and stranded on a reef. Reaching shore, Tarzan decides to take Jane to the jungle where he can protect her.
Now, are you ready? The whole really are brass, with the coming of the jungle dawn, the storm blows itself out. The tips of the giant trees have been whipped into feathery crests. The jungle trails are a mass of twisted broken branches.
An unusual silence hangs over the brooding forest, almost as though the beasts of the jungle were afraid to venture into the open. On the platform in the trees, Tarzan looks out over the scene of devastation.
He's turning over in his mind, Jean's insistent demands that she be returned to the hut. The ape man cannot understand it at all. Why should she want to go back where Clayton and the others have been unable to defend her?
Why should she wish to return to the parm and Gany, who do nothing but fight among themselves? He had thought that she liked him, Tarzan. Unconsciously the ape man thinks aloud. Tarzan cannot understand, Permann Gany.
