Origin of the Ape Man (Part I)
While searching for her father in the jungles of Africa, a woman listens to the tale about a wild ape man, from her guide.
FLASHBACK: Lord John Clayton, 4th Earl of Greystoke and Lady Alice leave Dover, England in 1888 to sail on a matter of business to Freeport, in North Africa. But their ship is over-run by pirates and they are taken prisoner. A mutiny erupts aboard the ship, and the Claytons are abandoned on the shores of the Congo.
Lord Clayton tries to eke out a life for his pregnant wife and himself. He builds a tree-house for them far away from the jungle animals. Lady Alice eventually gives birth to her son, John. Before the year is out, Alice contracts a rare jungle virus, becomes delusional and eventually passes away.
A gorilla named Kerchak observes these invaders to his jungle and investigates the Clayton cabin. He bursts into the cabin and kills Lord Greystoke. Another gorilla named Kala, having lost her own child, decides to adopt the human infant.
Kala raises baby John Clayton and he grows up to become the hairless lord of the jungle known as Tarzan.
