## Dr. Ilene Andrews

* For most of civilization we believed that life could only exist on the surface of our planet. What else are we wrong about?
* For centuries, there was harmony. The Titans were the guardians of nature, and the Great Apes became the protectors of humanity.
* This world has more secrets than we could possibly imagine.
* [sees the Skar King's handprint on a wall] That's not Kong. That's something else.
* He won't be alone.
* A powerful and ruthless ape, desperate to conquer the surface world, led his tribe into war against the one they called the monster who ate a star. [Trapper: Godzilla.] There's more. The war with the apes nearly destroyed Godzilla and after a great battle, he imprisoned the apes in a fiery realm on Hollow Earth. Their false king remains obsessed with reaching the surface. The Iwi call him the Skar King.
* Trapped within their subterranean realm, the Skar King harnessed a terrible power: the ancient Titan, Shimo. He controls her with pain. Her power covered the Earth in the last ice age.
* We've made some minor augmentations.

## Bernie Hayes

* Kong can't stop this on his own.
* [upon seeing Suko] Is that a mini-Kong?
* The last time those two met up it was almost the end of Kong.
* Now I have seen everything.

## Trapper

* Try not to swallow your tongue.
* That's not just a signal. That's a call for war.
* They don't have to like each other. They just have to work together.

## Taglines

* Rise together or fall alone.
* Bow to your new king. (Skar King)
* Unite.
* Everything changes.
* Unite together or face extinction.
