For unknown reasons, Simon was sent to the San Bruno Primate Shelter and resided there among countless other apes. While there, he, like the other apes was tormented by Dodge Landon.
Rise of the Planet of the Apes[]
While he slept one night, Simon and the other apes were exposed to ALZ-113 by Caesar. As a result, Simon gained enhanced intelligence from inhaling the gas. The following day, Simon joined the other apes in preparing to escape the shelter, as Caesar prepared to lead them to freedom in the Ape Rebellion.
