[As Paul and Amanda explain they are in the island to rescue their son Eric]

Alright, so why me?

He said we needed someone who'd been on the island before.

Yes, but I did not tell you to kidnap somebody.

I have never been on this island.

Sure you have. You wrote that book.

That was Isla Nublar. This is Isla Sorna, Site B.

You mean that there are two islands with dinosaurs on them?

Paul and Amanda

All right, you just stay out of this!

So, how long have they been missing?

Eight weeks.

Amanda

Almost eight weeks now.

Billy, we go back to the plane and salvage what we can. Then we make for the coast.

Dr. Grant, we're not leaving this island without our son.

Then you can go look for him, or you can stay with us as long as you don't hold us up. Either way, you probably won't get off this island alive. [Alan and Billy head off]

[to Udesky]

So...what do we do?

Well, we search for your son...in the direction that they're going.

Excellent. Excellent. [The trio quickly hurry after them]

Dr. Grant says that a bad idea.

Amanda

"Dr. Grant. Dr. Grant says-"

What's the good of hiring an expert if you're not gonna use his advice?

Amanda

Yeah, except Dr. Grant isn't looking for Eric. He's looking for the coast.

Okay, fine. Go ahead and scream. And then when that tricycloplots attacks you, don't come crying to me.

Amanda
[muttering]

Don't worry about that.

What?

Amanda

Nothing.

What did you say?

Amanda

Never mind

What did you say?

Amanda

God, Paul, just drop it.

[As they continue to argue] [to Billy]

If we split up, I'm going with you guys.

Amanda
[about the abandoned laboratory]

This how you make dinosaurs?

No. This is how you play God.

All I'm saying... It's not your fault.

Amanda

No, if he'd been with you, he'd be completely safe. You drive five miles under the speed limit, Paul. And I've totaled three cars in three years.

Well, not three. The Buick wasn't really totaled. I just said it was 'cause I wanted to get the S.U.V.

Amanda

I am so sorry you have to be here.

I'm not.

[After the group reunites, with a fence in between them]

How did you know we were here?

The phone. That stupid jingle from the store, I heard it.

My phone?

Yeah, your satellite phone.

Amanda

Where is it?

I don't have it.

Amanda

When did you use it last?

Uh, uh, on the plane. I got a call on the plane and... [stops in realization]

Amanda

What? What?!

I loaned it to Nash. He must've had it when he-

[Phone ringtones and the group turn in horror to see the Spinosaurs staring at them]

Run.

Amanda

All right, Eric, I'm just gonna leave you just for a minute, okay? Then you're gonna be right behind me, okay?

Mom...I've been alone in a water truck for eight weeks. I think I can manage the next two minutes without you.

[after watching Pteranodons fly away from the island]

Where do you think they're going?

I don't know. Maybe just looking for new nesting grounds. it's a whole new world for them.

Amanda

I dare 'em to nest in Enid, Oklahoma.

[looking lovingly at Amanda]

Let's go home.
