Summary

NoS synopsis: "Not so very old, and not so very young, but great Pals." C/U of two monkeys. They have collars around their necks and leads. "Fond of music? They can’t keep out of it!" One of the chimpanzees plays with a harmonica. One of the chimps stands on a table and moves around, supposedly dancing to the harmonica music. "But, the best music to them is of the liquid, gurgling variety." The two chimps drink from cups. An orang-utan drinks from a bottle.
