Tarzan's courtship of the female ape Teeka ends in failure when her preference turns to their mutual friend, the male ape Taug. Tarzan wrestles with his humanness versus his ape-ness. The allusion to Helen of Troy enriches the story, making Tarzan and Taug's fight over Teeka take on symbolic proportions. Stan Galloway writes: when Burroughs chooses to name Helen as an objective correlative for Teeka, he expects both literal and emotional connections to occur. Tarzan's final claim of the story -- Tarzan is a man. He will go alone. echoes the plight of Adam in the Garden of Eden.
