Imperfect Men

On this episode, Cody and Steve talk about Dr. Cornelius, a chimpanzee sympathetic to the plight of astronaut Taylor, played by Charlton Heston...wait, that's not right. No, they talk about Dr. Cornelius Evazan, who messed with Luke Skywalkwer and got Ponda Baba's arm chopped off...no, wait, that's not it either. Who are they talking about, again?
