History[]
In the episode The Buddy System of The Venture Bros. show, Dr. Thaddeus "Rusty" Venture attempted to run a summer camp for boy adventurers as a cash grab. As part of the camp, Dr. Venture planned on taking the kids through a tour of the long-abandoned E-Den Facility on The Venture Compound. When Dr. Venture and Master Billy Quizboy opened up the doors, they found the place had grown wild and primal. One of the creatures they encountered inside was a gorilla of hostile disposition. Dr. V. attempted to placate the beast, but Dermott Fictel intended to shoot it with is pellet gun. He missing, hitting Billy, whose cries spooked the gorilla and caused it to go berserk. Venture ordered the kids to retreat, and all escaped save for Billy and a boy named Kyle. Billy was badly maimed, and Kyle was killed in the confusion. However, enough of Kyle's genetic material was retrieved for Venture to make a clone of him to deceive his parents into thinking he was still alive.
E-Den would once again remain shut-up and abandoned until episode the time of Season 5, the episode of What Color is Your Cleansuit? Dr. Venture needed an enclosed space to develop Palaemon Project, for which E-Den had to be cleaned out. The Venture Family lured out the gorilla by covering Billy in meat. Once the gorilla was lured out, it prepared to attack a horrified Billy but Sergeant Hatred promptly killed it by shooting it multiple times. The discovery of two of its babies was an unwelcome and disheartening surprise, as Hatred presumably and regretfully killed them too.
