A large escaped orangutan has been terrorizing the people of Eberhart. He stowed away on a tramp steamer from Sweden where he had been study psychology at the university level. His teachers considered him a star pupil and endorsed his year abroad as well as supplying letters of transit for his voyage. He was held up in the immigration station of an African nation and almost put in a cage and sent off to the jungle. But a personal call from Stevenson's mentor, famed surgeon Andel Verhoeven, soon set the situation right and the orangutan was handed a banana as a peace offering.

The rage of this incident and its conclusion inflamed a rancor in his heart that few could even dream of. Stevenson was on hand in the port of Eberhart to welcome the recalcitrant primate.
"Look here," Stevenson said to Viceroy. "He's got a four inch penis and a five inch palm. Puts me in mind of Alcoholic Larry, Upper East Side."
And then the orangutan began throwing it's shit at the assembled well-wishers.
"Fuck me, he's an American after all!" Stevenson said and then used Viceroy's assistant as a shield while he retreated toward the safety of a bulletproof limo.

Viceroy had other ideas and called on Commandant to restrict the crowd from escaping. "This chimp has a lifetime of grudges against these people. He may be classically educated but damn if he doesn't know the ways of the Frontier," Viceroy explains. Sailor falls off the deck trying to capture the orangutan with a sixty foot long pole. His body is picked up by the orangutan and displayed as a trophy before the aghast crowd. Commandant's men open fire on anyone that tries to flee and from there the orangutan escapes into the city and has been terrorizing the population ever since.
