Chapter Summaries & Analyses
The group begins their journey into Jurassic Park, and “everywhere, extensive and elaborate planting emphasized the feeling that they were entering a new world, a prehistoric tropical world, and leaving the normal world behind” (93). Grant and Sattler admit that the dinosaurs look accurate from a distance, and Malcolm remarks that their existence likely changes the field of paleontology, to which Grant agrees. Grant admits that the field predicted this for a long time, but he did not expect it to happen so soon. He and Sattler wonder how InGen could have acquired enough dinosaur DNA to create the dinosaurs, since no sufficient amount has ever been discovered that they know of.
Regis begins boasting about the plants, and Sattler notices that the ones planted near the swimming pool contain poisonous alkaloids. Ellie reflects on peoples’ general lack of knowledge of plants and their marvels and dangers. Sattler takes the poor placement of plants as a warning that the planners of Jurassic Park may not have been as careful as they claim. The group is shown their lodgings and Grant and Ellie notice that the rooms are much smaller than the plans indicated, with steel bars reinforcing each wall.
