Gorilla had a very unfortunate accident. His arm and head were torn off and he lost and eye, nose, and part of his face!
Here are the diagnosis photos I received from his person:
Fortunately, he looked quite treatable. We started with a spa, because he was already going to need new stuffing:
Then he got his heart and was restuffed:
I thought he was back together and sent these photos:
His person wrote “
Wow he looks amazing!” …. but he used to have ears, can you add some? Apparently, the gorilla had lost he ears entirely! So I made a small sample ear and put it temporarily in place:
“Perfect!” said his person. So I affixed it firmly and did the other one as well. Here he is ready to fly home:
Sturdy with 100% scent, 20/20 vision, and perfect hearing again!
One of the neatest things about the Prequel Trilogy is that the character traits which, in any other circumstances, would be virtues end up being the cause of the character’s downfall. Obi-Wan’s dedication to the rules is why he fails as Anakin’s mentor. Padme’s faith in ‘human’ decency and her drive to help others, makes her unable to see the problems of both her husband and the Republic until it’s too late. Anakin’s sense of personal loyalty, need to help, and, most critically, deference to authority, lead him to become Vader. The fact that it’s everyone’s virtues, rather than their flaws, which destroy them make their stories that much more tragic.
