Sirian Zoo[]
A gorilla dies of old age at a zoo on Ekea, only minutes before the zoo opens. As the zoo is not very profitable, it is the only gorilla at the zoo. As the gorilla is their most popular attraction, they will go bankrupt without it. The zoo owner asks one of her workers to wear a gorilla suit they have in storage for an extra 150 Aui a day if she will go in the gorilla cage and pretend to be the gorilla until the zoo can afford a new one.
In only a matter of days, the new "gorilla" becomes the most popular exhibit at the zoo. Sirians from all over are coming to see the gorilla that seemingly acts like a Sirian. After a month, the excitement has started to wear off, and the woman begins to perform stunts to attract further attention. One day she decides to climb over her enclosure and hang from the net ceiling above the lion's den next to her. A large crowd of people gather watching the display. Suddenly she loses her grip and falls to the floor of the den.
She begins screaming "HELP ME! HELP!," and enters into her military-trained combat stance. Suddenly a lion pounces her from behind and whispers into her ear, "This unit requests that coworker Sally cease her antics before both of us have our employment terminated."
