Just move⟳ back nice and slow and easy, because that monkey may be having some problems, he may have⟳ some hostility towards you. So please⟳- this is just a public service announcement, that's what this is. Just to make⟳ sure it's very, very clear. And this PSA is brought to you by: Monkey Tuesday!”
