Here's the beginning of a legendary relationship: Jane is deeply conflicted about her strong attraction to an "ape" meanwhile, she has other complications, as back in America she's being forced to marry a creepy rich man to pay her father's debts, while an English aristocrat (Tarzan's cousin, unbeknownst to them all) is in love with her. When they're alone together in the jungle, Jane's afraid of his intentions, but he gives her his dagger to protect herself and sleeps outside their shelter. There's more lurid suggestion than explicit detail, as Tarzan falls hard for Jane but realizes that what works in the ape world won't work with her. For most of the story, Tarzan and his human friends believe he's the offspring of a human father and an ape mother.
