The Text:

This week’s text is Return, spanning from pages 317 – 344.

Sixth Iteration – “Systems recovery may prove impossible” (p. 315).

We’ll cover this in part three when there’s a bit more time available to us. 

Synopsis:

This chapter is huge – and so, please allow me to address this in portions, as we scheme to make this a multi-episode chapter. And indeed, it’s as consequential and meaningful as The Tour was, way back when we had to divide that chapter up into three parts.

In this first part: Grant drives back to the Visitor Center via the underground tunnel (p. 317), stashes the kids in the cafeteria at the visitor center, and then heads out to restore power at the generator shed. Meanwhile, Muldoon and Sattler conceive a plot to distract the raptors, ensuring Grant is free to move around.

But the raptors prove to be far more cunning than they could have imagined…

Discussions surround:

Timeline, Feminism, The Lodge, Contrivance in Plot, Park Management and the Island Layout. 

Corrections:

I said that in Utah there were more than 42 ecosystems now identified in the Mesozoic rocks, but my guest Dr. Jim Kirkland said "more than 30." So, I got that terrifically wrong!

Side effects:

The Text:

This week’s text is Tyrannosaur, spanning from pages 288 – 298.

Synopsis:

Muldoon and Gennaro locate the Big Rex and head out to tranquilizer her. Meanwhile, Lex, Tim and Grant plummet over the waterfall where the Big Rex has been waiting to eat them. The tyrannosaur loses them in the water, but finds the life vest.

Meanwhile, Grant snags the kids, resuscitates Lex from drowning and leads them up a path behind the waterfalls to hide from the Tyrannosaur. Behind the falls, Grant finds a secured maintenance facility, golf cart, and juvenile velociraptor, but unfortunately, he gets separated from the kids by a locked door. He tranquilizes the raptor, discovering that it’s a male that was bred in the wild.

The kids, on the other hand, are locked out and the tyrannosaur bursts through the waterfalls, uses its tongue like an elephant trunk to catch Tim, and is about to eat him, when it falls asleep.

The Text:

This week’s text is Aviary, spanning from pages 276 – 287.

Synopsis:

Arnold and Malcolm suppose that Grant and the kids are having challenging navigating the park, because they’ve yet to successfully trigger a motion sensor, and Malcolm shows that the 92 per cent coverage of the motion sensors has decidedly insufficient, to Arnold. Arnold hopes that nobody has gone into the aviary, because the pterosaurs are too dangerous.

Then, Grant and the kids enter the aviary and find that the pterosaurs are too dangerous, and escape with their lives – thanks to Lex’s baseball glove.

Meanwhile, Malcolm waxes philosophical with Sattler over the way of the world, and how misdirected we as a civilization have become.

Finally, Grant and the kids find themselves with nowhere to turn as two dilophosaurs are at the riverside where they’d like to pass. The tyrannosaur distracts them, as the raft slips by unnoticed.

Well, since you spent the effort to download and click on this – here are a few … behind the scenes things, or outtakes from the show that I usually spend a lot of time taking out!

What's in here? A bunch of gross noises … and an interview with my cat.

This episode is trash – sorry you had to listen to it! This seems like something someone who was very appreciative that people were tuning in to listen to the show wouldn’t do – but … I’m not a wise man. I’m a big dumb Jurassic Park fan.

Thank you dearly for tuning in to the Juras Sick Park Cast blooper reel. I promise, I won’t do it again.

Synopsis:

Gennaro and Muldoon investigate the site of the hadrosaur stampede when Arnold radios them, saying that he’s found Nedry’s stolen Jeep! Meanwhile, Grant awakens in the raft flowing down the river to Lex and Tim quarrelling about their dad, while microceratopses bounce in the branches above them.

When Muldoon and Gennaro reach the second Jeep, they find Nedry’s corpse and don’t bother “collecting him,” but do prioritize the weaponry, before returning to the site of the stampede. But there’s no sign of the Big Rex, so they have to wait for her to reappear.

Meanwhile, Grant and the kids flow up to the Aviary, and they climb out of the raft in search of a telephone or motion sensors.
