Tarzan captures Jane not as a bride but as a “shame-bearer” — a role invented by the apes. In this version, the Mangani have a social mechanism: they select a human woman to absorb the group’s shame (for killing, mating, etc.) through a ritual called “The Gaze of the Red Leaf.” Jane submits, believing it will civilize Tarzan. Instead, she begins physically transforming — her skin turns gray, her hair falls out, and she speaks only in animal cries.
