Part 6: “Sixth Iteration”

Part 6, Chapter 1 Summary: “Return”

Grant and the children take the electric vehicle through a tunnel under the waterfall. It leads them right back to the visitor center, and they are elated to be safe, finally. When they walk in, they are shocked to find the windows shattered and nobody in sight. A sign saying, “When Dinosaurs Ruled the Earth” (356) hangs on one hinge. Grant manages to get through to Sattler on the radio, who is relieved to hear that Grant and the kids are alive. He explains that they only have 30 minutes before the boat reaches the mainland with raptors on board, and Muldoon pipes in noting that they are currently surrounded by two at the lodge. He clicks the radio off.

In the lodge, Muldoon, Malcolm, and Sattler discuss how to get the power back on while two raptors attempt to chew through the skylight ceiling above them. They decide they can create a distraction to allow Grant to get to the power box. Sattler offers to be the bait, asking the others not to tell Grant. Wu radios Grant and instructs him to leave the kids in the cafeteria and slowly make his way to the power box. Grant leaves, and immediately Lex begins demanding ice cream.
