Very nice, though I expected the biscuit monkey would give his chip to the grape monkey to get a share of grape. Either that or he'd attack the guy handing out the treats.

In the end though he takes the grape from the examiner at the cost of his friends grape.

Well, Vulcan and Virgil aren't really friends, per se. More like acquaintances, at work. That's all.

And all that without holy scripture. I wonder how that can be ...

Because our sense of fair play is ingrained in us as social creatures?

Because we differ from other mammals by only a few genes?

Because God is an invisible man in the sky that was invented by man?

Aww, they think they're people :D

I was waiting for the monkey to tear the guys face off though. "What now? What now?! I got all your grapes now, fool!"
