Running for my life

I realize this is not the normal run of events,

 but try to follow me.

The purple gorilla is not pleased.

His cage is shredded in seconds.

I am skipping up the escalator,

 and hitting the button on the elevator.

In these kinds of moments,

 you get to think.

First,

  I have a giant purple gorilla chasing me.

  This should stop any other questions.

Second,

  how does a house out in the boon docks have an elevator,

    and an escalator?

The elevator door opens.
