Monkey (Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome)
Background
Monkey is the pet monkey of Max.
During the events of Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome (1985)
Max is driving a vehicle pulled by camels when the Flying Jalopy, flown by Jedediah and Jedediah Jnr., flies overhead and then knocks Max off the wagon. Jedediah gives the controls to Jedediah Jnr. and jumps onto the wagon, taking over the controls and driving it away from Max. As the wagon drives away, Monkey leaves a trail of items for Max to follow. Later, Max sees The Blaster holding Monkey by a string and starts to yell out to him and is stopped by Pigkiller. After Max is condemned to gulag, Pigkiller takes a canteen and ties it around Monkey and sends it to help Max. Monkey finds Max and they travel further out into the desert before collapsing from dehydration. Savannah Nix is walking in the desert when she finds Max and drags him on a sled to the Crack in the Earth. Monkey later leaves with Scrooloose and Savannah's group, which is then rescued by Max. The group heads to Underworld and Mr. Skyfish swings on a rope and saves Scrooloose and Monkey. Monkey leaves with Max and the children and eventually flies to Sydney with the children in Jedediah's plane.
