How It All Goes Down
Chapter 52: Destroying the World
- Hammond is relieved that the raptors didn't get out and destroy the world. Malcolm mocks him for thinking he has that kind of power.
Chapter 53: Under Control
- Of the twenty-four people on the island, eight are confirmed dead, and six are missing.
- The animals on the island are mixing. There are fewer of them now.
- Gennaro wants the island destroyed from above.
- Grant agrees, but he tells Gennaro that they have to account for all the animals first. They need to visit the nests to assess the extent of the mess.
- Lex has named the baby raptor Clarence.
- Grant explains to Muldoon that the dinosaurs with amphibian DNA could switch their sex. They put a collar on the baby raptor.
- Muldoon drives them to the volcanic fields, where Grant believes a nest is located. They let the baby raptor go. It disappears near a rock. They follow.
- Grant descends into the hole.
Chapter 54: Almost Paradigm
- Malcolm has slipped into a coma.
- Hammond asks Harding if it's safe to go out. Harding says this area should be, so Hammond goes for a stroll.
- Hammond decides he just didn't have the right people to make the park work. He'll do better next time, he thinks.
- Hammond hears the T. rex nearby, panics, and falls, breaking his ankle. Turns out it's just the kids playing with features in the control room.
- Hammond shouts for help.
- Malcolm is delirious.
Chapter 55: Descent
- Gennaro really doesn't want to follow Sattler into the hole. Muldoon threatens him, so he proceeds, then falls in.
- Gennaro sees dozens of eyes around him. They're in a man-made cave of sorts. They count the raptors and notice peculiar behavior patterns.
Chapter 56: Hammond
- Hammond tries to climb the hill, but he can't make it.
- The compys get him.
- What a way to go.
Chapter 57: The Beach
- Grant and friends chase after the raptors.
- The animals line up, watching the ocean.
- Grant realizes that they want to migrate.
Chapter 58: Approaching Dark
- Grant and Sattler admire the raptors.
- Helicopters approach and land.
- An office asks Grant if he's in charge.
- Um, no one is in charge.
- Muldoon tells Grant that Harding and the workmen have already taken off. Hammond is dead. So is Malcolm.
- Explosions hit the island. It's being destroyed.
