Warning: Spoilers
Involving a blind female ape who hates humans for (supposedly) killing her father, and her uncle who heads up a KKK type group who kills humans with masks at the dead of night. For the record, this episode became the best read of the PLANET OF THE APES novelizations...

Herein, Galen and the astronauts have to trick the girl into thinking they are all apes for shelter, and along the way, she falls for Burke. Some intense moments between Galen and Burke and with a suspenseful template throughout - tightening the inevitable anticipation of when the girl will discover she's being duped. Melodrama and suspense ensues, and it's all very well executed.
