She was affected by the virus. Her thoughts and actions show a simpleton process. She should of reacted to her father's death. She should have been afraid of the apes. She wanders into the camp with no regard to her own safety.
Just saying, that was my impression.

I think the affliction would affect all humans the same to a low level of simple intelligence.The Colonel is just not one to accept such a fate. His crazy ego is just too high.

It's hard to believe that a virus can cause this illness....so in the first two movies it caused the so called "simian flu"...now the virus suffered mutations...it can attack the dna,yes...but to let humans mute...i don't think so.

This virus plot nonsense is hurting the movie a lot. This is Planet of The Apes, not Planet of The Virus. Apes became smart is rudiculous enough and we knew it and we liked it, that's why we see it. That was the premise of the movie.

There is no need to create unnecessary explanations for a such a premise. What they're supposed to do really? Make it more realistic? Like it's even possible to make apes go smart realistic. The only thing they do is making the movie overly convoluted and strayed away from the more interesting parts: the apes, the characters, the drama.

It's like trying to make a back story about the science of how gamma radiation made Hulk. Or how exactly the spider bite actually turned Peter Parker into Spider-Man.
