Woman: "MY DEAREST GRANDDAUGHTER, BY THE TIME YOU READ THIS,

YOU WILL NO DOUBT HAVE GROWN

INTO A CONFIDENT AND BEAUTIFUL YOUNG WOMAN.

YOUR JOURNEY WILL NOT BE AN EASY ONE.

YOU WILL BE EXPECTED TO SHOW COURAGE

AND FACE MANY CHALLENGES,

WHICH MAY THREATEN TO DESTROY OUR WORLD.

BUT YOU ARE NOT ALONE, MARION,

AND HELP WILL COME IN UNEXPECTED WAYS

AND FROM UNFAMILIAR FACES.

AND AS THE DARKNESS DESCENDS AROUND DINOTOPIA,

NEVER ALLOW IT TO OVERWHELM YOU.

INSTEAD, FOLLOW YOUR HEART

AND PREPARE TO FULFILL YOUR DESTINY AS A MATRIARCH."

"FIND THE LIGHT."

I HATE FLYING.

THIS'LL BE A TREAT, DAVID. WE'RE GONNA GO ISLAND-HOPPING.

YOU'RE GONNA LOVE IT. I PROMISE.

LET'S LEAVE HIM BEHIND. HE'S GONNA BE LIKE THIS ALL DAY.

I AGREE WITH KARL. I WAS HAPPIER READING BACK AT THE VILLA.

YOU'RE NOT GONNA SIT IN YOUR ROOM READING.

YOU'RE GONNA BE OUT DOING SOMETHING.

THERE. WE'RE ALL SET.

COME ON, KARL. FLY THE PLANE.

Dad: THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT--

- YOU KEEP YOUR AIRSPEED ABOVE 140. - Karl: OKAY.

- THIS IS SO COOL. - HE'S FLYING THE PLANE.

YEAH, I SEE.

WAKE ME UP 20 MINUTES BEFORE LANDING.

David: WHAT?!

IT'S ALL RIGHT, DAVID. I THINK I KNOW WHAT I'M DOING.

( thunder crackles )

WHAT IS THAT?

- WHAT? - THAT. WHAT IS THAT?

DID YOU SEE THAT?

WAKE UP, DAD! DAD!

WHERE DID THAT COME FROM?

HANG ON!

I'M GONNA TRY AND OUTRUN THIS THING.

GET YOUR BELTS ON!

DAD... WE'RE GOING OUT OF CONTROL!

HANG ON!

HANG ON!

BRACE YOURSELVES!

- COME ON. - GO FOR THE DOOR.

- David: OPEN THE DOOR! - LET YOUR BROTHER OUT!

KARL!

KARL!

DAVID!

KARL!

DAVID!

WHERE'S DAD?

I COULDN'T GET HIM OUT!

WHAT ARE WE GONNA DO?

HOLD ME!

WHERE ARE WE?

WHAT IS THIS PLACE?

I DON'T KNOW, DAVEY. I DON'T KNOW.

KARL, WHAT ARE WE DOING?

WE SHOULD HAVE JUST STAYED WITH THE PLANE.

WE DIDN'T HAVE A CHOICE, DAVID.

- WE WOULD HAVE DROWNED. - WE JUST LEFT HIM.

I TRIED. THERE WAS NOTHING I COULD DO.

DAVID...

WHAT HAPPENED HAPPENED.

NOW, IF WE CAN FIND SOME HELP...

A PHONE... MAYBE THERE'S A CHANCE.

( bird squawks )

- WHERE DO YOU THINK WE ARE? - Karl: I DON'T KNOW.

- ALL THESE ISLANDS LOOK THE SAME TO ME. - David: I DON'T BELIEVE THIS.

WE'VE BEEN WALKING FOR HOURS, AND NOTHING--

NO PEOPLE, NO HOUSES, NOT EVEN A ROAD TO FOLLOW.

LET'S KEEP GOING. WE'RE BOUND TO FIND SOMEONE SOMEWHERE.

David: DO YOU SEE THAT?

( low growl )

- WHAT THE HELL IS THAT? - I DON'T KNOW.

WHATEVER IT IS, IT LOOKS KIND OF CREEPY.

SORRY.

- ( coughing ) - SORRY-- APOLOGIES.

SINCERE APOLOGIES FOR THE INCONVENIENCE.

I HAVE-- I HAVE PERMISSION

FROM THE VOLCANIUM COUNCIL TO EXPLORE ANCIENT SITES

IN THE HOPE OF FINDING UNUSED SUNSTONES.

IT'S ALL IN ORDER. I HAVE THE PAPERS--

WELL, WELL, WELL.

HELLO, BOYS.

SORRY, YOU GAVE ME A BIT OF A FRIGHT THERE.

OH-- WE GAVE YOU A FRIGHT?

UNLESS I'M VERY MUCH MISTAKEN,

YOU'RE SOMETHING OF A RARITY, HUH?

- HAVE YOU JUST ARRIVED? - UH, YES.

SPLENDID. I KNEW IT. NEWCOMERS.

SO, WHERE ARE WE EXACTLY?

DINOTOPIA. YOU'LL BE THE TALK OF THE PLACE.

IT'S NOT EVERY DAY WE GET NEW ARRIVALS.

DINOTOPIA? WHERE IS THAT?

CAN I USE YOUR CELL PHONE?

- WHAT? - YOU KNOW, TELEPHONE.

WE NEED TO CALL THE COAST GUARD RIGHT AWAY.

WE WERE IN A STORM AND OUR PLANE CRASHED.

OUR FATHER, HE'S MISSING. WE'VE GOT TO GET SOME HELP.

YOU'LL WANT A POSTAL BIRD. I'M AFRAID I CAN'T HELP YOU THERE.

- POSTAL BIRD? - POSTAL BIRD.

WHAT WERE YOU DOING UP THERE ANYWAY?

OH, JUST A BIT OF ARCHAEOLOGY.

YOU'RE THE FIRST ARCHAEOLOGIST I'VE MET WHO USES DYNAMITE.

YES-- WELL, I HAVE A NUMBER OF OCCUPATIONS, TO BE HONEST WITH YOU.

I'M SOMETHING OF AN INDEPENDENT SPIRIT,

WHICH CAN GET A MAN INTO TROUBLE AROUND HERE.

FANCY A LIVENER?

- NO, THANKS. - GO ON.

WELL, FOR WHAT IT'S WORTH AND AT NO EXTRA COST,

I OFFER YOU THE ETERNAL FRIENDSHIP OF CYRUS CRABB.

NICE TO MEET.

WELL, WASTING MY TIME HERE.

THIS PLACE HAS BEEN PICKED CLEAN WITH A FINE-TOOTH COMB.

YOU GOT ANYTHING YOU WANT TO SWAP-- RINGS, WATCHES?

NO? WELL, IF IT'S ANY USE TO YOU BOYS,

I'LL ESCORT YOU TO THE CHANDARA BUS DEPOT.

I'M CATCHING A BUS THERE MYSELF IN ABOUT HALF AN HOUR.

- FANCY THAT? - Karl: ALL RIGHT.

FOLLOW ME.

Karl: SO HOW BIG IS DINOTOPIA?

NOT THAT BIG-- A COUPLE OF HUNDRED MILES ACROSS.

200 MILES? HOW COME WE'VE NEVER HEARD ABOUT IT BEFORE?

WE'RE A LITTLE BIT CUT OFF FROM THE REST OF THE WORLD.

David: LOOK AT THIS PLACE. I MEAN, THESE PEOPLE--!

COME ON.

- David: THIS IS REALLY... - Karl: WEIRD?

- WELL, NO, JUST-- - YOU DON'T THINK THIS IS WEIRD?

LOOK AT THE SIGNS. WHAT KIND OF MARKINGS ARE THOSE?

( distant roar )

- WHAT'S THAT SOUND? IS IT AN ANIMAL? - Cyrus: SCALYTAUR.

( roaring )

( screaming )

WHAT'S GOING ON?

WHAT IS THAT?

HEY, HEY, HEY, IT'S ALL RIGHT. CALM DOWN. CALM DOWN.

( growling )

DON'T PANIC.

- IT CAN'T BE. - IT'S A DINOSAUR.

DINOSAURS DIED OFF MILLIONS OF YEARS AGO.

( chuckles ) IF ONLY, MY BOY. IF ONLY.

- IT'S COMING RIGHT FOR US. - TIME TO SAY FAREWELL, I THINK.

OH-- THERE SHE IS.

I THOUGHT SHE'D TURN UP AT A TIME LIKE THIS.

Karl: WHO IS SHE?

- COME ON, BOYS. - WHAT'S SHE DOING?

THE FUN'S OVER.

SHE MUST BE CRAZY.

- ( roars ) - Woman: EASY, NOW.

David: IS SHE NUTS? HEY!

Cyrus: CALM DOWN, BOYS. DON'T WORRY ABOUT HER.

CALM DOWN.

WHAT IS IT? WHAT'S WRONG?

( roars )

( roars )

TOOTHACHE.

( villagers applaud )

THAT WAS AMAZING.

SHE'S DINOTOPIAN, 20th GENERATION.

I'D LOVE TO SPEND MORE TIME WITH YOU,

BUT I HAVE TO CATCH A NIGHT BUS TO VOLCANIUM.

VERY IMPORTANT MEETING.

IF THERE'S ANYTHING YOU NEED, DON'T HESITATE TO CALL.

IT'S NO BOTHER AT ALL.

"CRABB'S CURIOS, WATERFALL CITY."

THAT'S YOUR STORE?

THE FINEST IN ANTIQUES AND ANTIQUITIES.

LISTEN, DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME IN THE PROVINCES.

GO TO WATERFALL CITY. PICK UP YOUR TICKETS OVER THERE.

- MAYBE WE'LL SEE YOU THERE. - OH, YOU CAN BE SURE OF IT.

I KNOW FUTURE FRIENDS WHEN I SEE THEM.

CHEERIO.

I'M NOT SURE I TRUST HIM.

WHY NOT? HE'S JUST A WEIRD OLD GUY

WITH A LIMP AND A FEW STICKS OF DYNAMITE.

I WONDER IF THERE'S A MAP AROUND HERE.

WELL, LOOK.

- Karl: LET'S TRY TO FIND WATERFALL CITY. - MAYBE WE CAN GET TICKETS.

I GUESS THAT MEANS IT'S CLOSED.

EXCUSE ME.

WE NEED TO GET TO A PLACE CALLED WATERFALL CITY.

WATERFALL CITY--

THE NEXT BUS IS AT DAWN.

DAWN?

GREAT. NOW WHAT?

DAVID, YOU ASLEEP?

WHAT DO YOU THINK?

HOW COULD A PLACE LIKE THIS REALLY EXIST

WITHOUT EVERYBODY KNOWING ABOUT IT?

IT'S MIND-BLOWING.

I DON'T KNOW, DAVID.

I DON'T HAVE ANY ANSWERS.

BUT I DO KNOW WE HAVE TO GET OUT OF THIS DUMP,

GET TO THAT CITY CRABB TALKED ABOUT.

WATERFALL CITY?

EXACTLY. WE CAN FIND SOME HELP THERE,

GET SEARCH PARTIES OUT, CALL HOME.

DO YOU REALLY THINK SOME PLACE CALLED "WATERFALL CITY"

IS GONNA HAVE TELEPHONES?

WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

I THINK THE RULES HERE ARE DIFFERENT,

AND WE BETTER START LEARNING THEM.

NO, NO, SCREW THE RULES. I'M NOT FORGETTING ABOUT DAD.

NOBODY'S FORGETTING ABOUT DAD.

IT'S JUST THAT THERE'S NOTHING WE CAN DO RIGHT NOW,

NOT UNTIL WE UNDERSTAND THIS PLACE.

I DON'T WANT TO UNDERSTAND THIS PLACE. I WANT TO GET HOME.

( sighs )

LOOK...

RIGHT NOW, WE SLEEP, OKAY?

THEN TOMORROW, THE CITY.

WE DO WHATEVER IT TAKES TO FIND SOMEONE IN CHARGE.

( animal roars )

( chattering )

Clerk: ROUTE 11.

BETTER HURRY. OVER THERE.

GREAT. THANK YOU.

THERE. THAT SHOULD DO YOU.

EXCUSE ME. UH, HI.

MY NAME'S KARL. THIS IS MY BROTHER DAVEY.

IT'S DAVID. HI.

HELLO. MY NAME'S MARION.

YOU WERE PRETTY IMPRESSIVE YESTERDAY DEALING WITH THAT...

WHATEVER IT WAS.

- ANKYLOSAURUS. - WEREN'T YOU SCARED?

I'M TRAINING TO BE A LEADER.

I MUST BE CALM IN A CRISIS IF I'M EXPECTED TO INSPIRE OTHERS.

YOU'RE NOT FROM AROUND HERE, ARE YOU?

NO. NOT EXACTLY.

WE HAD AN ACCIDENT, AND WE SWAM ASHORE.

NOW WE'RE TRYING TO GET TO WATERFALL CITY.

OH, THAT'S MY DESTINATION.

NOW, I UNDERSTAND WHAT'S HAPPENED TO YOU,

BUT DON'T BE AFRAID. YOU'RE NOT THE FIRST.

WHEN YOU ARRIVE IN WATERFALL CITY,

EVERYTHING WILL BE EXPLAINED, JUST AS SOON AS YOU REGISTER.

REGISTER?

WE DON'T WANT TO REGISTER FOR ANYTHING.

WE JUST WANT TO GET HOME.

I IMAGINE THAT'S SO.

THIS WAY.

( purring )

THIS IS THE BUS?

HE'S A BRACH, BRACHIOSAURUS.

WE'LL BE TRAVELING WITH HIM ACROSS THE RAINY BASIN.

- David: WHAT'S THAT FOR? - ARMOR. THAT'S TO STOP HIM FROM GETTING KILLED.

( rumbling )

HE SAYS HE MUCH APPRECIATES THE PROTECTION.

THE BUS IS SECURE.

WE WILL BE LEAVING IN FIVE MINUTES.

WATERFALL CITY DIRECT.

THERE'S ROOM AT THE BACK.

EXCUSE ME.

HE WON'T EAT US, WILL HE?

BRACHS ARE PLANT-EATERS.

TO GET TO WATERFALL CITY,

WE HAVE TO CROSS THE RAINY BASIN.

IT'S THE DOMAIN OF THE CARNIVORES.

WE ONLY CROSS WHEN IT'S ABSOLUTELY ESSENTIAL,

AND THEN ONLY IN CONVOY.

BUT DON'T WORRY. WE CARRY EXTRA FOOD TO APPEASE THEM.

APPEASE THEM?

THE CARNIVORES AREN'T EVIL.

THEY'RE JUST HUNGRY BY NATURE.

SO DO YOU HAVE ANY WEAPONS?

WE WON'T FIGHT THE CARNIVORES.

HE MEANS IF THEY ATTACK US.

I UNDERSTAND. DINOTOPIANS DON'T CARRY WEAPONS.

WEAPONS ARE ENEMIES, EVEN TO THEIR OWNERS.

THIRD CODE OF DINOTOPIA.

WAIT A MINUTE.

YOU HAVE A LAW THAT SAYS YOU CAN'T DEFEND YOURSELF?

THERE ARE WAYS TO DEFEND YOURSELF WITHOUT USING WEAPONS.

BESIDES, IT'S ONLY ONE IN FIVE CONVOYS THAT ARE ATTACKED.

OH, GOOD.

NOW JUST COMPLETE THIS HIDEOUS PICTURE FOR US.

EXACTLY WHAT KIND OF DINOSAURS ARE WE LIKELY TO ENCOUNTER?

TYRANNOSAURUS REX, OF COURSE.

OF COURSE.

OF COURSE.

David: WHAT'S HAPPENING? WHY ARE WE STOPPING?

THE BRACHS-- SOMETHING'S SCARING THEM.

( growling )

WHERE IS HE GOING?

WHAT IS THAT?

TYRANNOSAURUS.

THESE DROPPINGS ARE FRESH.

AND THE TRACKS-- THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF THEM.

I'VE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE IT.

TYRANNOSAURS NEVER HUNT IN HERDS.

THESE ONES DID.

Marion: THERE'S AN OUTPOST AT THE EDGE OF THE FOREST.

WE'VE GOT TO MAKE SURE THEY'RE SAFE. COME ON.

( thunder crashing )

Marion: WHAT'S HAPPENED HERE? WHERE IS EVERYBODY?

LOOK.

Karl: WHAT IS IT?

THE SUNSTONE HAS FAILED.

WHAT'S A SUNSTONE?

IT'S OUR SOURCE OF POWER.

IT KEEPS THE OUTPOST AND SETTLEMENT SAFE.

THIS ONE'S DEAD.

Karl: WHAT HAPPENED TO IT?

QUIET.

( thunder rumbling )

WHAT'S GOING ON?

IT MUST HAVE BEEN THE THUNDER.

WE SHOULD GET BACK TO THE BRACHS.

WE CAN'T.

THE NEXT OUTPOST IS MORE THAN FIVE HOURS AWAY.

THE BRACHS WILL NEVER CARRY US THROUGH THE STORM.

THEN WE'LL HAVE TO FIND SHELTER HERE.

WOULD YOU LIKE SOMETHING TO EAT?

THAT'D BE GREAT.

YEAH, I'M STARVING. ANY CHANCE OF A STEAK?

A BURGER OR SOME CHICKEN?

YOU WANT A BIRD? TO EAT?

WE EAT ONLY FRUIT AND VEGETABLES IN DINOTOPIA.

AND YOU?

DO YOU EAT MEAT AS WELL?

ME? NO, NO. I'M A VERY STRICT VEGETARIAN.

WHY, THANK YOU.

UGH, IT'S BITTER.

YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO PEEL IT FIRST.

I SEE YOU HAVEN'T LOST YOUR TOUCH, KARL.

Marion: KARL HAS A RESTLESS SPIRIT.

HAS HE ALWAYS BEEN THAT WAY?

YEAH, I GUESS SO.

I'VE NEVER SPENT THIS MUCH TIME ALONE WITH HIM BEFORE.

YOU'RE BROTHERS, BUT YOU DON'T LIVE TOGETHER.

NO. NO, WE HARDLY SEE EACH OTHER AT ALL.

WE HAVE DIFFERENT MOTHERS.

SEE, MY FATHER-- HE LED A VERY ACTIVE SOCIAL LIFE.

WE WERE BORN JUST A FEW MONTHS APART,

BUT WE DIDN'T GROW UP TOGETHER.

WE JUST DON'T HAVE ANYTHING IN COMMON.

SO WE'RE NOT EXACTLY BEST FRIENDS.

I'M SORRY ABOUT YOUR FATHER, DAVID.

THANK YOU.

( screeching )

DID YOU HEAR THAT?

THEY'RE HARMLESS--

CREATURES OF THE RAINY BASIN.

WELL, SOMETHING'S MAKING THEM PANIC.

SOMETHING'S MAKING ME PANIC.

WE SHOULD ALL TRY AND GET SOME SLEEP.

( sighs )

( screeching )

( creaking )

Karl?

Karl!

Karl?

Karl?

- Karl! - WHAT? WHAT IS IT NOW?

I SWEAR I HEARD SOMETHING.

IT WAS LIKE A RUMBLE COMING THROUGH THE FLOOR.

JUST GO BACK TO BED.

( crashing )

LET'S CHECK IT OUT.

OKAY.

WHAT? CAN YOU SEE ANYTHING?

NAW, NOTHING BUT JUNGLE OUT THERE.

( creaking )

I THOUGHT--

WELL, I THOUGHT-- WELL... I-I--

YOU THOUGHT A T-REX WAS COMING TO GET YOU.

YEAH. ( laughs )

OUTSIDE! RUN!

RUN!

OVER HERE. QUICK.

( roaring )

( growling )

COME ON! KEEP GOING!

AHH!

MARION!

MARION!

YOU OKAY?

IT'S ALL RIGHT.

THEY'RE SKYBAX. THEY'RE HERE TO HELP US.

( screeching )

( trilling )

I AM OONU, SQUADRON LEADER, SKYBAX CORPS.

I THINK YOU JUST SAVED OUR LIVES.

YES, THIS TIME, YOU WERE LUCKY.

I'M GOING TO RECOMMEND THIS BUS SERVICE BE

SUSPENDED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE.

WE CANNOT GUARANTEE THE SAFETY OF THE PASSENGERS--

YOU, STOP.

NO ONE BUT A RIDER EVER APPROACHES A SKYBAX.

THESE ARE NOT TAME BIRDS.

IF YOU VALUE YOUR LIFE, STAY BACK.

I WILL PROVIDE YOU WITH AN AIRBORNE ESCORT

FOR THE REST OF YOUR JOURNEY.

WHAT HAPPENED TO EVERYBODY HERE?

WE RESCUED THE REST OF THE STAFF EARLIER.

WE FLEW THEM OUT BEFORE THE STORMS CAME UP.

BUT THREE PEOPLE AND THEIR TRICERATOPS PATROL

ARE STILL MISSING.

AS YET, WE'VE HAD NO SIGHTINGS.

I FEAR THEY ARE DEAD.

OKAY. LET'S GO.

RIGHT. COME ON. FOLLOW US.

Karl: WHAT'S THE BEST WAY TO FIGHT THOSE THINGS?

Marion: WE DON'T APPROVE OF VIOLENCE IN DINOTOPIA.

EVEN WHEN IT SAVES YOUR LIFE?

THAT T-REX ALMOST KILLED US BACK THERE.

OUR LIVES ARE NO MORE PRECIOUS THAN THAT OF THE TYRANNOSAURUS.

COME ON, MARION. EAT OR BE EATEN. KILL OR BE KILLED.

THAT'S THE LAW OF THE JUNGLE.

WE'RE HUMAN BEINGS,

THAT MEANS WE'RE AT THE TOP OF THE FOOD CHAIN.

WE ARE RECENT GUESTS ON THIS PLANET.

THE DINOSAURS HAVE BEEN HERE FOR 160 MILLION YEARS.

- MAMMALS LIKE US ARE ONLY-- - I LIKE MY DOG BACK HOME,

BUT HE'S NOT GETTING A DRIVER'S LICENSE.

- YOU FEEL SUPERIOR TO THEM? - YEAH, YOU BET I DO.

- BUT YOU'RE NOT. - David: KARL FEELS SUPERIOR TO EVERYTHING.

IF DINOSAURS ARE SO SMART, HOW COME THEY DO ALL THE MANUAL LABOR?

DINOSAURS TAKE PRIDE IN THEIR STRENGTH.

THEY'RE STILL CARRYING US AROUND ON THEIR BACKS.

THERE'S MANY THINGS YOU CAN LEARN FROM A BRACHIOSAURUS.

LIKE WHAT?

LIKE HUMILITY.

Marion: WELCOME TO WATERFALL CITY.

I'VE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE IT.

David: IT'S A BEAUTIFUL CITY.

IT'S LIKE SOMETHING OUT OF A FAIRY TALE.

MARION... YOUR WORLD MAP'S A LITTLE BIT OFF.

AMERICA ISN'T JOINED TO EUROPE.

AT THE BEGINNING OF THE TRIASSIC PERIOD,

ALL THE CONTINENTS WERE JOINED TOGETHER

IN ONE HUGE SUPERCONTINENT CALLED PANGEA.

I'M SURPRISED YOU DIDN'T KNOW THAT, DAVID.

WHY ARE THEY ALL LOOKING AT US?

THERE HAVEN'T BEEN NEWCOMERS IN MANY YEARS.

YOU'RE CELEBRITIES.

( crowd calling out greetings )

THE MAYOR OF WATERFALL CITY'S COME TO GREET YOU.

THIS IS THE PALACE.

( trumpets blaring )

Karl: WHO'S THAT GUY?

LOOKS LIKE A CLOWN WITH ALL THOSE ROBES ON.

- HELLO, FATHER. - MARION.

I HEARD ABOUT THE TYRANNOSAURUS ATTACK.

- I'VE BEEN SO WORRIED. - I'M FINE.

THERE'S NOTHING TO BE FRIGHTENED OF,

BUT I WOULD LIKE TO ADDRESS THE SENATE ON WHAT I SAW.

PLENTY OF TIME FOR THAT. DINNER'S AT 8:00...

QUARTER TILL 9:00 BY THE TIME THE SPEECHES HAVE DRAGGED ON.

OH, WELL.

NOW, ON BEHALF OF THE PEOPLE OF DINOTOPIA,

I, WALDO SEVILLE, THE 207th MAYOR OF WATERFALL CITY

AND SPEAKER OF THE DINOTOPIAN SENATE,

EXTEND TO YOU OUR WARMEST WELCOME AND HOSPITALITY.

( Brach rumbles )

EXCUSE ME, MR. MAYOR?

OUR PLANE CRASHED INTO THE SEA. DAVID AND I--

WE ESCAPED, BUT OUR FATHER WAS TRAPPED IN IT.

WHAT WE NEED IS A SEARCH PARTY.

DON'T WORRY, DEAR BOYS. THE SENATE AWAITS YOU.

WE WILL ADDRESS ALL YOUR CONCERNS.

Mayor: RECORDED ON THIS SCROLL,

YOU CAN SEE THE NAMES OF THOSE SHIPWRECKED SOULS

WHOM DESTINY HAS DELIVERED TO OUR LAND.

THEY NUMBER THOUSANDS,

FROM ALL CORNERS OF THE EARTH, FROM EVERY CENTURY.

THOSE POOR UNFORTUNATES, CAST AWAY ON THE WINDS OF MISFORTUNE

ONLY TO FIND A BETTER LIFE, A LIFE OF HARMONY AND FULFILLMENT

HERE ON THE SHORES OF DINOTOPIA.

AND WE ARE THEIR DESCENDANTS.

WELCOME.

( applause )

BRAVO!

( roaring )

PLEASE. PLEASE DO SIGN.

WELCOME TO WATERFALL CITY, DAVID SCOTT.

( applause )

AND A VERY WARM WELCOME TO YOU TOO, KARL SCOTT.

WE WOULD LIKE TO FORMALLY ACCEPT YOU

INTO THE WATERFALL CITY ACADEMY

WHERE YOU WILL, AFTER TRAINING,

BE GIVEN THE CHANCE TO BECOME FULL DINOTOPIAN CITIZENS

AND TO FIND YOUR SAURIAN LIFE PARTNER.

- SAURIAN? - YOU MEAN ONE OF THOSE SCALIES?

DON'T USE THAT UGLY TERM HERE,

BUT, YES, YOU WILL BE PAIRED WITH A DINOSAUR.

THERE'S A CEREMONY AND WE TAKE A VOW.

IT'S LIKE A MARRIAGE.

THANK YOU FOR THE OFFER, BUT WE HAVE TO GET HOME.

OUR DAD'S STILL OUT THERE. THERE'S NO WAY WE CAN STAY HERE.

WE UNDERSTAND THAT YOU BOTH MUST BE UPSET,

BUT MANY DINOTOPIANS HAVE LOST THEIR FRIENDS AND FAMILIES

IN THE SHIPWRECKS THAT BROUGHT THEM HERE,

BUT I'M AFRAID YOUR PAST LIFE IS GONE.

THIS MUST BE A BIG SHOCK TO YOU,

BUT WHEN YOU UNDERSTAND THE TRULY WONDERFUL LIFE--

WE HAVE TO GET OFF THIS ISLAND.

Mayor: I'M AFRAID THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE.

OVER THE CENTURIES, A FEW HAVE TRIED,

BUT THEY'VE ALL PERISHED ON THE RAZOR REEF.

WAIT A MINUTE. HOW DO YOU KNOW NO ONE'S EVER MADE IT?

HAD YOU EVER HEARD OF DINOTOPIA BEFORE YOU ARRIVED?

- NO. - EXACTLY.

YOU CAN'T IMAGINE HOW EXCITING THIS IS FOR US.

YOU'RE THE FIRST NEW ARRIVALS FOR MANY A LONG TIME.

WE'RE ALL WAITING TO HEAR OF THE CHANGES IN YOUR WORLD.

SO COME ALONG, COME ALONG.

OUR LAST OFFWORLDER WAS SHIPWRECKED IN 1944,

SO WHAT HAVE BEEN THE PRINCIPLE CHANGES

IN YOUR SOCIETY SINCE THEN?

- WHAT? - ( speaking Saurian )

OH, YES. ARE YOU STILL AT WAR WITH THE GERMANS?

NO. WE WON THAT ONE.

WELL DONE.

DO TELL US ABOUT THE SIGNIFICANT HISTORICAL EVENTS THAT HAVE FOLLOWED.

UH, SIGNIFICANT EVENTS. LET'S SEE.

THERE WAS THE WAR IN VIETNAM,

AND WATERGATE, THE GULF WAR, THE COLD WAR,

AND THAT'S WHEN THEY KNOCKED DOWN THE BERLIN WALL.

THEY KNOCKED DOWN A WALL?

WAS THERE SOMETHING WRONG WITH IT?

UH, THAT'S A LITTLE HARD TO EXPLAIN.

LET'S SEE. WHAT ELSE?

THE SPACE PROGRAM-- APOLLO 11.

- THAT'S WHEN NEIL ARMSTRONG WALKED ON THE MOON. - ( chattering )

TECHNOLOGY'S VERY ADVANCED THESE DAYS.

WE ALL HAVE MOBILE PHONES AND DVDs AND LAPTOPS.

EVERYBODY'S ON THE INTERNET.

I'M SORRY. WE'VE ALL GOT A LITTLE CONFUSED.

I THOUGHT YOU SAID SOMEONE WALKED ON THE MOON.

( laughter )

COME ON.

THE MOST SIGNIFICANT EVENT IN MY HISTORY

IS FALLING OUT OF THE SKY

AND WATCHING MY FATHER SWEPT AWAY TO DROWN.

WELCOME TO DINOTOPIA.

WOW.

IT'S JUST...

IT'S JUST INCREDIBLE, ISN'T IT?

- YOU'LL GET USED TO IT. - I'M NOT SO SURE.

I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW A PLACE THIS BIG

HASN'T BEEN FOUND BEFORE OR ISN'T ON ANY MAPS.

- Marion: IS THAT SO SURPRISING? - WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

ARE THERE NO MYSTERIES LEFT WHERE YOU CAME FROM?

NO, THERE'S A LOT OF THINGS WE DON'T KNOW ABOUT.

THIS IS JUST ANOTHER ONE.

THIS IS THE ANCIENT LIBRARY OF DINOTOPIA.

THIS IS YOUR LIBRARY?

IT MUST BE CENTURIES OLD.

LOOK AT ALL THESE SCROLLS.

I'D LOVE TO READ SOME OF THEM.

YOU MIGHT FIND THAT A LITTLE BIT DIFFICULT

SEEING AS THEY AREN'T WRITTEN IN ENGLISH.

OH.

- WHAT'S HE DOING? - DINOSAURS HATE TURNING PAGES.

THEY DO THEIR BEST THINKING WHEN THEIR FEET ARE MOVING.

( speaks Saurian )

GOSH, I'M SORRY.

NO, NO, NO, IT'S PERFECTLY ALL RIGHT.

IT WAS COMPLETELY MY FAULT.

THIS DINOSAUR CAN TALK!

( speaks Saurian )

( speaks Saurian ) MARION.

DAVID AND KARL SCOTT, RIGHT?

AND, YES, I CAN SPEAK ENGLISH AND FRENCH.

- BONJOUR, MON AMI. - BONJOUR.

I CAN UNDERSTAND 17 MAJOR HUMAN AND SAURIAN LANGUAGES

AND IMITATE MANY NATURAL SOUNDS.

I WAS TOP OF MY CLASS.

SO HOW MANY DINOSAURS CAN TALK?

ALL OF THEM.

BUT VERY FEW LEARN TO SPEAK ENGLISH PROPERLY, IF THAT'S WHAT YOU MEAN.

HOW EXCITING TO MEET YOU. YOU KNOW, I JUST LOVE MAMMALS.

I HAVE TO LEAVE YOU NOW.

I'M GOING TO SPEAK TO THE SENATE.

GOODBYE.

WAIT A MINUTE. WHERE ARE WE SUPPOSED TO GO?

WHERE ARE WE GONNA SLEEP?

OH, I'M SORRY. I THOUGHT YOU'D BEEN TOLD.

ZIPEAU HAS KINDLY AGREED

- TO GIVE YOU TEMPORARY ACCOMMODATION IN HIS HOUSE. - YES.

GOODBYE.

- YOU MEAN WE'RE STAYING WITH A DI-- - LIBRARIAN.

- RIGHT. LIBRARIAN. - YES. HMM.

MMM, THIS IS-- THIS IS DELICIOUS.

- YOUR FORK, KARL. - YOU'RE VERY KIND TO PUT US UP, ZIPEAU.

NO, NOT AT ALL. I FIND YOU A VERY INTERESTING SPECIES.

I JUST LOVE THE WAY YOU JUMP ABOUT, VERY QUICK REACTIONS,

AND THE WAY YOU EAT WITH YOUR LITTLE KNIFE AND FORK,

CUTTING UP ALL THE FOOD FIRST.

IT'S SO FUNNY.

SO DO YOU HAVE A HUMAN PARTNER?

I WAS PARTNER TO SILVIA OF THE HATCHERY,

BUT I'VE NEVER SOUGHT ANOTHER AFTER MY SOUL MATE'S DEATH.

WOW. HOW'D YOU SCORE A BABE LIKE THAT?

GOD.

- HMM? - WHAT?

BABE. VERY COLORFUL LANGUAGE.

IT'S A SPIRITUAL UNION

I DON'T THINK YOU QUITE UNDERSTAND YET.

NO,

I'LL NEVER MEET ANOTHER LIKE HER.

BABE.

( speaks Saurian )

SOUP'S GETTING COLD, DARLING.

I THOUGHT YOU SPOKE BEAUTIFULLY TO THE SENATE.

I COULDN'T BELIEVE MY LITTLE GIRL LOOKED SO GROWN UP.

THE DEBATE WAS VERY INTERESTING,

BUT THE NEXT MEETING'S NOT SCHEDULED FOR ANOTHER MONTH.

THE DINOTOPIAN WAY IS THE REASONED WAY.

A GOOD MIND IS A CALM MIND.

( speaks Saurian )

( speaks Saurian )

FATHER, THIS ISN'T THE FIRST TIME THE SUNSTONES FAILED,

AND I'VE NEVER SEEN TYRANNOSAURS RUNNING IN HERDS.

PERHAPS THE OUTER SETTLEMENTS ARE BEING ATTACKED

BECAUSE THE SUNSTONES ARE FAILING.

WELL, THAT'S AN INTRIGUING IDEA.

I SHALL SEND OUT SKYBAX PATROLS

TO CONFIRM THE REPORTS BEFORE THE NEXT MEETING.

WOW. VERY COOL.

- WE ARE IN THE NUTHOUSE. - YEAH, I KNOW,

BUT WHAT A PLACE. IT'S JUST INCREDIBLE.

AND ALL THAT TALK ABOUT PARTNERS...

DOESN'T THAT SEEM A LITTLE CREEPY?

WE'RE TALKING ABOUT LIZARDS HERE.

NO. THIS IS SOME KIND OF UTOPIA,

WHERE EVERYONE LIVES IN HARMONY.

THERE'S NO WAY I'M GONNA BE WALKING AROUND WITH A LIZARD GIRLFRIEND.

AS FOR STUDYING SAURIAN, WHATEVER THAT IS, YOU CAN FORGET IT.

WHY DO YOU ALWAYS TURN AGAINST EVERYTHING

BEFORE YOU'VE EVEN STARTED?

WHAT'S THE POINT WHEN WE'RE GOING HOME ANYWAY?

OH? AND HOW ARE WE GONNA DO THAT?

YOU SAW WHAT THE RAZOR REEF DID TO OUR PLANE, RIGHT?

THE MORE I LISTEN TO YOU, THE MORE I THINK YOU WANT TO STAY HERE.

OF COURSE I WANT TO GO HOME, BUT WE DON'T KNOW HOW TO RIGHT NOW.

SO ALL I'M SAYING IS WE SHOULD TRY AND MAKE THE BEST OF IT.

YOU REALLY DON'T WANT TO LEAVE, DO YOU? I CAN'T BELIEVE IT.

THINK ABOUT IT, KARL. DON'T YOU SEE SOMETHING

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING HAS HAPPENED TO US?

I THINK WATCHING DAD DIE HAS KIND OF RUINED IT FOR ME.

YOU KNOW I DIDN'T MEAN THAT.

WELL, I THINK I KNOW WHAT DAD WOULD SAY.

HE'D SAY THIS WAS A GREAT ADVENTURE.

WE SHOULD BE EXPLORING

AND SEEING THINGS THAT NO ONE'S EVER SEEN BEFORE.

MAYBE WE SHOULD STAY, JUST FOR A LITTLE WHILE.

AND SEE WHAT LIFE IS LIKE HERE.

MAYBE THAT'S BECAUSE YOU DON'T HAVE A LIFE BACK HOME.

WELL, I DO, AND I WANT IT BACK.

UM, BEFORE YOUR GRANDMOTHER ORIANA DIED,

SHE GAVE ME THIS.

SHE SAID IT WASN'T TO BE PASSED TO YOU

UNTIL AFTER YOUR 18th BIRTHDAY.

WHAT IS IT?

OPEN IT.

WHAT DOES IT SAY?

"FIND THE LIGHT."

UH-HUH.

( chuckles )

A SUNSTONE.

THIS WAS HER GREATEST TREASURE.

THE EXPLORER ARTHUR DENISON FOUND IT

AND GAVE IT TO HER AT LEAST 100 YEARS AGO.

AH. IT'S ALMOST PERFECT.

APART FROM THE PRIME SUNSTONE, I'VE NEVER SEEN ITS EQUAL.

ORIANA KNEW YOU WERE SPECIAL, EVEN AS A BABY.

MARION, I WOULD LIKE YOU

TO LEAD THE SUNSTONE PARADE NEXT WEEK.

OH, FATHER, THAT WOULD BE THE GREATEST HONOR.

I TELL YOU, MY DEAR,

THERE IS NOTHING COULD MAKE A FATHER PROUDER.

SHE'S VERY NICE TO LOOK AT, ISN'T SHE?

DON'T LET THE MAYOR CATCH YOU STARING AT HER LIKE THAT.

HE'LL RUN YOU OUT OF TOWN.

SHE'S NOT FOR THE LIKES OF US ORDINARY PEOPLE.

I WAS JUST HAVING A LOOK AROUND.

OF COURSE YOU WERE.

WHO WOULDN'T ON A WONDERFUL NIGHT LIKE THIS?

OH, KARL, I HOPE YOU DON'T MIND ME SAYING,

BUT THAT BROTHER OF YOURS--

HE'S A BIT OF AN ODD SORT, ISN'T HE?

WE'RE ONLY HALF BROTHERS.

WE'VE NEVER REALLY BEEN THAT CLOSE.

I'M SORRY THAT YOUR FATHER'S GONE.

YEAH, SO AM I.

I'LL BE SAYING A LITTLE PRAYER FOR HIM TONIGHT,

IF THAT'S ALL RIGHT WITH YOU.

SURE.

WHY DON'T YOU CALL ON ME AT THE SHOP SOMETIME,

WHENEVER YOU GET TIRED OF THE SCALIES TRYING TO CHANGE YOU.

- BREATHE DEEP. - SEEK PEACE.

I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU JUST SAID THAT. "SEEK PEACE."

YOU GIVE ME THE CREEPS.

KARL, GROW UP. IT'S A GREETING.

Zipeau: OTHERS FIRST, SELF LAST.

Kids: OTHERS FIRST, SELF LAST.

DO ONE THING AT A TIME.

DO ONE THING AT A TIME.

AH, HERE ARE YOUR TWO NEW CLASSMATES, DAVID AND KARL.

BREATHE DEEP, DAVID AND KARL.

SEEK PEACE.

NO WAY. I'M NOT STAYING HERE.

THIS SCHOOL'S FOR LITTLE CHILDREN.

THEN YOU SHOULD BE RIGHT AT HOME.

YES, IT'S A BEGINNER'S CLASS.

FORGET ABOUT IT, ZIPEAU.

NO, WELL, I THOUGHT YOU'D BE DELIGHTED.

THE VISITING TUTOR IN THIS CLASS

IS YOUR TRAVELING COMPANION, MARION.

THIS TERM, WE WILL BE STUDYING SAURIAN.

AT THE END OF TERM, YOU WILL SIT IN EXAMINATION

AND WRITE YOUR ANSWERS IN FOOTPRINT LANGUAGE.

NOW, WHO CAN TELL ME THE FIRST CODE OF DINOTOPIA?

ONE RAINDROP RAISES THE SEA.

VERY GOOD.

I WILL NOW READ TO YOU ALL THE CODES OF DINOTOPIA.

ONE-- ONE RAINDROP RAISES THE SEA.

TWO-- SURVIVAL OF ALL OR NONE.

THREE-- WEAPONS ARE ENEMIES, EVEN TO THEIR OWNERS.

FOUR-- GIVE MORE, TAKE LESS.

FIVE-- OTHERS FIRST, SELF LAST.

SIX-- OBSERVE, LISTEN, AND LEARN.

SEVEN-- DO ONE THI--

KARL, THAT IS UNNECESSARY DESTRUCTION OF PUBLIC PROPERTY,

AND THAT IS NOT HOW STEGOSAURUSES REPRODUCE.

( laughter )

EIGHT-- SING EVERY DAY.

NINE-- EXERCISE IMAGINATION.

10-- EAT TO LIVE. DON'T LIVE TO EAT.

NOW, WHO KNOWS WHERE WE WOULD FIND

ALL THE CODES OF DINOTOPIA WRITTEN DOWN?

- IN FOUNTAIN SQUARE. - VERY GOOD, DAVID.

WHAT? I READ IT IN ZIPEAU'S CITY GUIDE.

AND OF VERY SPECIAL SIGNIFICANCE TO ALL DINOTOPIANS.

ANCIENT LEGEND TELLS HOW IT WAS BROUGHT UP

FROM THE WORLD BENEATH TENS OF THOUSANDS OF YEARS AGO.

WHAT'S THE WORLD BENEATH?

IT'S A MYTHICAL PLACE WHERE DINOSAURS WERE SAID

TO HAVE FOUND SANCTUARY AT THE DAWN OF TIME.

RULE FOUR-- GIVE MORE, TAKE LESS.

VERY GOOD.

YOU CAN SEE DOWN NEAR THE BOTTOM HERE

THAT THE VERY LAST CODE IS MISSING.

ALL THAT CAN BE MADE OUT ARE THE FIRST THREE LETTERS-- F, I, N.

NOBODY KNOWS WHAT THE 11th CODE IS.

ANYONE LIKE TO GUESS WHAT THE 11th CODE MIGHT BE?

- FIND A WAY OUT OF HERE? - DID YOU SAY SOMETHING, KARL?

YEAH. I HAVE TO GO TO THE BATHROOM.

DO I NEED A PASS?

NO, BUT TONIGHT'S HOMEWORK WILL BE ON THE CODES.

HOMEWORK? FORGET IT.

Zipeau: KARL?

SHOULDN'T YOU BE AT SCHOOL?

I QUIT.

OH, DEAR. PERHAPS THERE'S SOMETHING ELSE YOU'D LIKE TO DO?

NOTHING.

COME ON. THERE MUST BE SOMETHING YOU LIKE TO DO.

CAREFUL WITH THOSE. THAT'S LIBRARY PROPERTY.

THAT'S NOT HOW WE READ SCROLLS.

NO, ZIPEAU, IT'S A GAME.

A GAME? OH. CAN I PLAY?

SURE.

OKAY, WE'RE READY.

NOW, WHAT DO I DO?

- YOU'RE AT THAT END. - RIGHT.

- NOW, GRAB YOUR BAT. - GRAB THE BAT.

- HOLD IT LIKE THIS. - LIKE THIS?

THAT'S IT.

SO YOU'RE CLEAR ABOUT WHAT HAPPENS

WHEN I HIT THE BALL OVER THE NET?

I HIT IT BACK.

- YOU'VE GOT NO QUESTIONS ABOUT THE RULES? - NOPE.

OKAY.

( grunts )

ONE-NOTHING.

YES, YES, YES.

HEY. OH, DEAR.

TWO-NOTHING. TRY AGAIN, ZIPEAU.

( sighs )

I'M JUST GETTING THE HANG OF IT.

DON'T WORRY, ZIPEAU. YOU'LL GET THERE.

I'M UPSET THAT KARL HAS LEFT MY CLASS.

DID I DO SOMETHING WRONG?

NO. NO, IT'S NOT YOU.

KARL QUITS JUST ABOUT EVERYTHING.

HE DOESN'T KNOW WHAT HE WANTS.

I THINK I KNOW... SOMETIMES.

BUT SOMETIMES I'M NOT SO SURE.

YOU SEEM PRETTY SURE OF WHAT YOU'RE DOING.

MY MOTHER'S A MATRIARCH. IT'S MY DESTINY.

IS THAT WHAT YOU WANT?

HOW CAN YOU WANT ANYTHING OTHER THAN YOUR DESTINY?

YOU DO ASK THE STRANGEST THINGS.

SUPPOSE YOU DON'T KNOW YOUR DESTINY.

IT KNOWS YOU. YOU FIND EACH OTHER. THAT'S ALL.

- MARION-- - WOULD YOU LIKE TO SEE THE PRIME SUNSTONE?

WHAT? UH, SURE. YEAH.

I'D LOVE TO. LET'S GO.

COME ON.

GREAT.

HERE WE GO.

VERY GOOD.

NICE.

OH! THAT'S IT?

THAT'S IT.

HOW MANY POINTS DID I SCORE?

NONE. 21-0. I WIN.

WELL, I DON'T UNDERSTAND IT.

USUALLY, I HAVE EXCELLENT HAND-TO-EYE COORDINATION.

THERE YOU GO.

WHEN CAN WE PLAY AGAIN?

I'M SURE I'LL BE ABLE TO BEAT YOU AT THIS GAME.

I CAN HONESTLY SAY

THAT HUMANS WILL ALWAYS BEAT DINOSAURS AT PING-PONG.

LET'S PLAY AGAIN.

I CREAMED YOU.

I DON'T MIND. THIS IS FUN.

I HAVEN'T HAD SO MUCH FUN IN A LONG TIME.

YOU KNOW WHAT, ZIPEAU? ME NEITHER.

THINK FAST.

OH, YEAH, GOT YOU.

WE'LL HAVE TO RACE.

WE'VE ONLY GOT ABOUT 10 MINUTES.

THERE'S 361.

COME ON, DAVID. I'LL RACE YOU.

SLOW DOWN. I'M DYING HERE.

DON'T BE SILLY. THIS IS NOTHING.

MAYBE FOR YOU, IT ISN'T.

ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?

( panting )

IT'S JUST MY ASTHMA ACTING UP.

I DON'T SUPPOSE THEY SELL INHALERS IN WATERFALL CITY.

THIS IS FANTASTIC.

I HAD NO IDEA.

YOU DON'T HAVE CITIES LIKE THIS WHERE YOU COME FROM?

NO.

( gasps )

I THINK WE'RE A LOT FARTHER UP THAN I THOUGHT.

THIS IS WHAT POWERS THE WHOLE OF DINOTOPIA.

IT'S THE MOST POWERFUL SUNSTONE EVER FOUND.

IT'S ALMOST FLAWLESS.

WHAT ARE THEY DOING?

EVERY EVENING, THE PRIME SUNSTONE

REGENERATES ALL THE OTHER SUNSTONES ACROSS DINOTOPIA.

COME ON.

IT'S ALMOST TIME.

WE CAN WATCH IT FROM HERE.

SO, WHERE DO SUNSTONES COME FROM?

ALL WE KNOW IS THAT THEY'RE VERY OLD.

LEGENDS SAY THAT THEY WERE MINED FROM THE WORLD BENEATH

AT THE BEGINNING OF TIME.

THEY'VE BEEN FOUND ALL OVER DINOTOPIA,

BUT NOT FOR MANY YEARS.

BREATHE DEEP.

( music playing )

( humming )

( loud thump )

WHAT ARE YOU READING?

ONE OF OUR COURSE BOOKS. WHY?

WHAT'S IT CALLED?

"THE CARE AND TEACHING OF HUMANS."

AND YOU DON'T FIND THAT SICK?

NO.

IT'S A VERY INTERESTING BOOK.

ANOTHER WEEK AND THEN I'M LEAVING.

YEAH? AND WHAT'S THE PLAN?

I DON'T NEED A PLAN TO KNOW I HAVE TO GET OUT OF HERE.

YOU'VE GOT A WEEK TO DECIDE WHETHER YOU COME WITH ME OR NOT.

I MEAN, WHAT ARE WE DOING HERE?

KARL, I'M TRYING TO STUDY FOR GRADUATION.

GRADUATION? WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT, GRADUATION?

WE DON'T BELONG HERE. WE'RE NOT DINOTOPIANS.

YOU'RE GETTING BRAINWASHED. CAN'T YOU SEE THAT?

LOOK, I DON'T HAVE TIME TO ARGUE WITH YOU, OKAY?

ARE YOU INSANE?

THERE'S A DINOSAUR SLEEPING IN THE NEXT ROOM.

YES, EXACTLY.

KARL, THIS IS THE CHANCE OF A LIFETIME.

WE ARE THE FIRST IN OUR GENERATION

TO SEE ANYTHING LIKE THIS.

THEY'RE SCREWING WITH YOUR HEAD AND YOU DON'T GET IT, DO YOU?

WHY ARE YOU SO NEGATIVE ABOUT EVERYTHING?

THIS IS ALWAYS WHAT HAPPENS WITH YOU.

YOU'RE STUCK.

FOR THE FIRST TIME, NO ONE'S GOING TO BAIL YOU OUT.

WHY DON'T YOU STOP BEING SO SELFISH

AND AT LEAST GET TO KNOW THIS PLACE BEFORE YOU CONDEMN IT?

I'M GOING AND YOU'RE COMING WITH ME.

LOOK, KARL, NOT THAT YOU BOTHERED TO ASK,

BUT I KIND OF LIKE IT HERE.

I CAN'T BELIEVE I'M STUCK HERE WITH YOU.

IT WASN'T ME WHO WAS FLYING THE PLANE.

DO YOU BLAME ME FOR WHAT HAPPENED?! DO YOU?!

LET GO OF ME! LET GO OF ME!

IF YOU EVER SAY THAT AGAIN, I'LL KILL YOU, DAVID.

I SWEAR I WILL.

( door opens )

( door closes )

MAMMALS.

KARL, COME IN. COME IN.

I WAS JUST CLOSING UP THE SHOP FOR THE NIGHT.

YOU'VE GOT A LONG FACE ON YOU.

NO, I'M FINE.

WHAT IS THIS?

OH, THAT'S OGTHAR.

IF YOU BELIEVE THE LEGEND,

HE RULED OVER A MYTHICAL PLACE CALLED THE WORLD BENEATH.

SOME SAY IT EXISTS, OTHERS SAY IT'S JUST STORIES FOR CHILDREN.

AND WHAT DO YOU THINK?

HOW CAN I HELP YOU, MY FRIEND?

I WANT TO GET OFF THIS ISLAND.

I SEE.

WELL, TAKE A SEAT.

I WAS JUST HAVING A BITE TO EAT.

EVERYONE SAYS IT'S IMPOSSIBLE TO LEAVE.

THEY CERTAINLY WANT YOU TO BELIEVE THAT IT'S IMPOSSIBLE.

THEY DON'T WANT THE REST OF THE WORLD

KNOWING ABOUT THEIR LITTLE PARADISE.

I DON'T CARE ABOUT THEIR LITTLE PARADISE.

CAN I GET OFF THIS ISLAND?

I'VE SPENT THE PAST 20 YEARS

COLLECTING SHIP'S LOGS, CHARTS,

MAPS OF THE TIDES AND REEFS THAT SURROUND THIS ISLAND.

THERE'S ONLY ONE MORE THING I NEED

TO BUY MY OWN TICKET OUT OF HERE, BUT WE'LL NEVER SEE IT.

IT'S THE CAPTAIN'S LOG FOR THE REBECCA'S FOLLY.

WHERE'S THIS CAPTAIN'S LOG?

IN THE ARCHIVES OF THE ANCIENT LIBRARY.

BUT THE ONLY ONE WHO'S GOT THE KEYS

IS THAT SCALY THEY STUCK YOU WITH.

- ZIPEAU? - YES.

SO WHY DON'T YOU GET IT?

( laughs )

NO, NO, NO, NO, NO.

THEY'D NEVER LET ME NEAR THAT LIBRARY

ON ACCOUNT OF AN INCIDENT TO DO WITH ONE OF MY RELATIVES.

A SMALL FIRE A LONG TIME AGO.

NOTHING TO DO WITH ME,

BUT JUST ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF SCALY PERSECUTION.

NOW, COME TO THINK OF IT,

IT WOULDN'T BE TOO DIFFICULT FOR YOU

TO GET AHOLD OF THAT BOOK.

YOU MEAN STEAL IT.

I DON'T KNOW. IT DOESN'T SEEM RIGHT.

I MEAN, THE SCALIES--

THEY HAVEN'T DONE ANYTHING TO ME.

THIS IS WHAT THEY DID TO ME.

I WAS EXPLORING A SACRED TEMPLE WHEN ONE OF THE UGLY BUGGERS

TOOK A GREAT BIG CHUNK OUT OF MY LEG.

THAT'S WHAT THEY DO WHEN THEY DON'T AGREE WITH YOU.

THINK ABOUT THAT.

- DID YOU GET ONE OF THESE? - MM-HMM.

WHAT'S IT SAY?

IT'S AN INVITATION FROM MARION.

GREAT. WHAT FOR?

- HELLO? - CAN'T YOU READ IT?

YOU GOT A BIG MOUTH. ANYONE EVER TELL YOU THAT?

ONLY YOU, KARL.

HERE YOU GO.

THANKS.

YOU'RE WELCOME.

( grunting )

IT'S QUITE FANTASTIC, ISN'T IT?

YOU'LL SCARCELY BELIEVE YOUR EYES.

THE THEME THIS YEAR IS "THE WORLD BENEATH."

SO THE WORLD BENEATH-- THAT REALLY EXISTS?

ACCORDING TO LEGEND, IT WAS THE PLACE

WHERE THE SUNSTONES WERE ORIGINALLY FOUND--

THE HEART OF DINOTOPIA.

WHERE'S KARL?

SORRY, ZIPEAU.

( growling )

OH! OH, LOOK!

OH, I'M SO EXCITED.

OH, THE CEREMONY IS ABOUT TO BEGIN.

( growls, roars )

( fanfare plays )

LONG AGO, A TERRIBLE DARKNESS STRUCK THE EARTH.

THE SEAS CHURNED AND THE SKIES TURNED BLACK

AND THE LIGHT OF THE SUN WAS LOST FROM THE LAND.

OUR ANCESTORS SOUGHT REFUGE IN CAVES DEEP BELOW THE EARTH,

WHERE THEY FOUND FOOD AND SHELTER

AND MAGICAL STONES, WHICH BROUGHT LIGHT.

A YOUNG GIRL LEFT THE SAFETY OF THE WORLD BENEATH

AND CLIMBED UP TO THE SURFACE--

A SUNSTONE ILLUMINATING HER WAY.

( fanfare plays )

HIGHER AND HIGHER SHE CLIMBED IN THE DARKNESS,

NOT KNOWING THAT THIS WAS NIGHT.

( applause )

SO BEAUTIFUL.

( applause continuing )

CENTURIES PASSED,

AND A GREAT CIVILIZATION EVOLVED,

BUT NO ONE HAD EVER SEEN THE SUN.

THEN... THE DAWN CAME,

AND SHE SAW THAT THE SKIES HAD CLEARED

AND THAT THE SUN SHONE ONCE AGAIN.

OUR ANCESTORS FOLLOWED HER FROM THE WORLD BENEATH,

AND THEY BROUGHT WITH THEM THE MAGICAL STONES,

AND THEY BUILT DINOTOPIA.

THE WORLD BENEATH WAS SEALED.

THE GREAT RULER OGTHAR DECREED

THAT IT SHOULD REMAIN A SACRED PLACE,

UNDISTURBED FOREVERMORE.

( applause )

- ( rockets whistling ) - OOH!

Child: IT'S BEAUTIFUL!

WOW!

HI.

I REALLY ENJOYED THE SHOW.

( children laughing )

IT WAS A CEREMONY. THANK YOU.

YEAH.

WHATEVER IT WAS, SAURIAN SPECTACULAR.

KARL, I WANT YOU TO COME BACK AND FINISH THE COURSE.

IS THAT WHY I GOT AN INVITATION?

LOOK, I CAN'T DO SCHOOL. NEVER HAVE.

WHY SHOULD I START NOW?

BECAUSE YOU'RE NOT THE PERSON YOU WANT TO BE.

OH, AND YOU ARE? YOU KNOW IT ALL, DO YOU?

IF YOU CAN'T BEAR SCHOOL,

I'LL SPEND AN HOUR A DAY TEACHING YOU PERSONALLY.

REALLY?

OKAY. DEAL.

AND IN RETURN, YOU'LL SIT FOR YOUR FOOTPRINT EXAM.

Marion: YOUR GRADUATION QUESTION IS, HOW ARE WE TO LIVE?

YOU HAVE AN HOUR TO ANSWER IN ANY WAY YOU WISH.

YOU MAY BEGIN.

( whimpers )

( muttering )

ZIPEAU, YOU LOOK UPSET.

WHAT'S WRONG?

THE MOST TERRIBLE THING HAS HAPPENED.

A BOOK HAS BEEN--

I CAN'T BRING MYSELF TO USE THE WORD.

A BOOK HAS BEEN STOLEN.

REALLY?

MAYBE IT JUST GOT LOST SOMEWHERE.

EVERY INCH OF THE LIBRARY HAS BEEN SEARCHED.

I'VE BEEN THROUGH "ANTIQUES," "ANTIQUITIES" A DOZEN TIMES.

WHO COULD DO SUCH A THING?

LOOK, ZIPEAU, BOOKS GET STOLEN FROM LIBRARIES ALL THE TIME.

NOT IN DINOTOPIA.

IT'S INCONCEIVABLE

TO STEAL KNOWLEDGE THAT SHOULD BE FOR ALL.

IT HAS TO BE HERE SOMEWHERE.

( door opens )

STOP WRITING, PLEASE.

Karl: YOU SAID YOU'D HELP ME GET OFF THIS ISLAND.

YES, YES, YES, YES.

I'M A MAN OF MY WORD. I JUST NEED TO STUDY THIS BOOK.

NOW, THIS CAPTAIN'S JOURNAL CHARTS THE COURSE

OF THE TWO SHIPS I TOLD YOU ABOUT.

WITH A LITTLE BIT OF PATIENCE,

I'LL FIND THE WRECK OF THE ONE THAT DIDN'T MAKE IT THROUGH.

I THOUGHT WE WERE TRYING TO FIND A WAY OUT.

OF COURSE WE ARE.

WE JUST NEED TO GET SOMETHING FROM THE WRECK.

YOU SAID A WAY OFF THE ISLAND. THAT WAS THE DEAL.

IF YOU WANT TO COME WITH ME, BE HERE TOMORROW AT MIDNIGHT.

BUT COME ALONE.

NO, I CAN'T GO WITHOUT MY BROTHER.

YOUR BROTHER?

FOLLOW ME.

LET ME SHOW YOU SOMETHING, KARL.

HORRIBLE WHEN IT HAPPENS TO KIN, ISN'T IT,

SEEING THEM SUCKED IN?

HE'S STILL MY BROTHER.

I CAN'T JUST LEAVE HIM HERE.

WAS YOUR BROTHER.

YOU MAY NOT BE ABLE TO TRUST HIM.

NOT ANYMORE.

( laughs ) RIGHT.

( speaking Saurian )

SO, ARE YOU LOOKING FORWARD TO GRADUATION TOMORROW?

YEAH, SURE.

I CAN'T WAIT TO HEAR WHAT THEY THOUGHT

OF YOUR FIVE-MINUTE ANSWER.

THE QUESTION WE ASKED

WAS PERHAPS THE MOST IMPORTANT QUESTION

ANY DINOTOPIAN CAN BE ASKED--

HOW ARE WE TO LIVE?

DAVID, YOURS WAS POSSIBLY THE LONGEST ANSWER WE HAVE EVER HAD.

AT 17 PAGES, YOUR ARGUMENT WAS AN EXHAUSTIVE ONE,

AND YOU'RE CLEARLY NOT FRIGHTENED

TO SAY WHAT YOU BELIEVE

MANY TIMES WITHIN THE SAME DOCUMENT.

BUT PERHAPS THE FINEST ANSWER WE HAVE EVER HAD

WAS WRITTEN BY KARL.

MARION WILL NOW READ KARL'S ANSWER ALOUD

FOR THE ENTIRE ASSEMBLY.

"IS THIS THE REAL LIFE, OR IS IT A FANTASY?

CAUGHT IN A LANDSLIDE, NO ESCAPE FROM REALITY.

OPEN YOUR EYES, LOOK UP TO THE SKIES,

AND SEE."

( crowd murmurs )

BRILLIANT!

THAT'S CHEATING!

THAT'S THE LYRICS TO "BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY"!

KARL'S ANSWER WAS VERY INSPIRING, MARION.

YES, IT WAS QUITE SPECIAL, ZIPEAU.

IT WAS THE WAY HE COMBINED FANTASY AND REALITY

AND THEN COMPARED IT WITH THE LANDSCAPE...

HAVE YOU EVER DONE ANYTHING IN YOUR LIFE

WHEN YOU HAVEN'T CHEATED?

ALWAYS BEEN A SORE LOSER, DAVID?

HEY, I WORKED HARD TO GET THROUGH THAT EXAM.

YOU'RE TAKING THIS DINOTOPIA STUFF WAY TOO SERIOUSLY.

WHAT IS IT YOU'VE GOT AGAINST THIS PLACE?

I WOULDN'T KNOW WHERE TO START.

I THINK YOU'RE STILL TRYING TO BLAME DAD'S DYING ON DINOTOPIA.

HEY, LEAVE DAD OUT OF IT.

I'D BE GLAD TO.

LET'S FACE IT, HE PRETTY MUCH LEFT US OUT OF HIS LIFE.

DON'T TALK ABOUT HIM LIKE THAT.

AT LEAST YOU TWO HAD SOMETHING IN COMMON--

HE DIDN'T HAVE THE TIME OF DAY FOR ME.

WONDER WHY THAT WAS.

HE DUMPED MY MOTHER, THEN DID THE SAME TO YOURS.

BUT YOU STILL WORSHIP HIM.

DON'T TALK LIKE THAT!

YOU KNOW WHAT? WITHOUT DAD AROUND, I FEEL FREE.

KIND OF MAKES YOU THINK, DOESN'T IT?

I'M ALMOST GLAD HE'S GONE.

( both grunting )

- AAH! - AAH!

MY DEAR, THOSE TWO WERE JUST NEVER SUITABLE

FOR A DINOTOPIAN EDUCATION.

BUT, FATHER, I FEEL IT'S MY DUTY TO LOOK FOR THEM.

MARION, THEY'VE GONE.

WE HAVE SEARCHED, BUT NOBODY'S FOUND ANY SIGN.

NOW, DON'T FORGET THAT TOMORROW YOU TRAVEL TO VIDABBA.

YOU'RE DUE TO START YOUR HABITAT TRAINING.

FATHER, I REALLY DO FEEL THAT I SHOULD--

MARION?

I FEEL LIKE I'VE FAILED THEM BOTH.

I SHOULDN'T HAVE MADE KARL GO BACK TO SCHOOL.

THEY WERE IN M CHARGE, MARION.

IT IS I WHO HAVE FAILED THEM.

- I MUST GO AND FIND THEM. - WHAT, OUT THERE?

I HAVE NO CHOICE.

MY FATHER'S GOING TO BE FURIOUS.

THAT COULD BE GROSSLY UNDERSTATING HIS REACTION.

I SUPPOSE I SHOULD GO HOME AND GET MY BAG.

WHY?

YOU DON'T THINK I'M LETTING YOU GO ALONE, DO YOU?

( squawking )

Bird: WELCOME TO WATERFALL CITY CENTRAL POST OFFICE.

MESSENGER BIRD 371 AT YOUR SERVICE.

NOW, I MUST REMIND YOU

THAT OUR NEW RATES ARE IN EFFECT FROM TODAY.

- SORRY, 371. - ( squawks )

( coughs )

STAY WITH ME. WE'RE ALMOST THERE.

( growls )

( coughs )

COME ON, DAVID. TALK TO ME.

( coughs )

Zipeau: DAVID!

KARL!

IT'S ZIPEAU AND MARION!

KEEP UP, ZIPEAU.

OH, WHERE COULD THEY BE?

DO YOU KNOW I'VE NEVER BEEN SO FAR FROM WATERFALL CITY

IN MY LIFE?

( bird muttering )

BRAVO, MARION!

YOU BROUGHT A POSTAL BIRD.

( squawks )

WAH! WHERE ON EARTH...?

I MUST REMIND YOU, THERE IS A SURCHARGE

FOR DELIVERY OF MESSAGES OUTSIDE WATERFALL CITY.

HOW CAN I HELP?

MESSAGE READS, "ARE YOU KARL OR DAVID?"

DESTINATION OF MESSAGE?

FOLLOW THE RIVER AS FAR AS YOU CAN UNTIL SUNSET.

FOLLOW THE RIVER?

NO RESPONSIBILITY CAN BE TAKEN

FOR DELIVERY OF MESSAGES WITHOUT PRECISE DESTINATION.

I WANT YOU TO FLY AS FAST AS YOU CAN AND ASK ANYONE YOU MEET.

GO!

PROPER MESSAGE WITH A PROPER DESTINATION...

( sighs ) SO, WHAT DO WE DO NOW?

WAIT.

WHERE ARE WE?

WAIT HERE FOR A MINUTE.

I'M GONNA CHECK IT OUT, OKAY?

( rustling, bird squawking )

( roaring )

HELLO?

( creaking )

I DON'T KNOW WHERE TO LOOK.

"UP THE RIVER" COULD BE ANYWHERE.

WHAT KIND OF A DESTINATION DO THEY CALL THAT?

IT ALL LOOKS THE SAME FROM UP HERE, ANYWAY.

Karl: REMEMBER WHEN WE DRANK HIS 1918 PORT?

HIS LAST BOTTLE.

( chuckles )

$1,300 WORTH OF PORT IN ONE AFTERNOON.

WE DIDN'T LIKE THE TASTE, SO WE MIXED IT WITH COKE.

IT ACTUALLY MADE IT BETTER. REMEMBER?

THAT WAS A GREAT CHRISTMAS, WASN'T IT?

( weakly ) SANTA DIDN'T COME THAT YEAR.

WHAT WAS THAT? SAY IT AGAIN.

SANTA DIDN'T COME THAT YEAR.

OH, HE DID.

IT'S JUST THAT HE WAS AWFUL PISSED.

DAVEY?

DAVEY! COME ON, DAVEY.

STAY WITH ME.

CAN YOU HEAR ME?

DON'T FADE ON ME, OKAY?

I CAN'T DO THIS ON MY OWN.

( bird approaching )

WAH! OH, BOTHER.

( coughs ) ARE YOU KARL OR DAVID?

KARL. THAT'S ME.

END OF MESSAGE.

POSTAGE HAS BEEN PREPAID. THANK YOU.

COME ON, HURRY. THEY'RE JUST UP AHEAD THIS WAY.

KARL?

DAVID?

- ARE YOU THERE? - 371: COME ON!

Marion: KARL?

DAVID?

SOMEONE'S HERE.

KARL!

OVER HERE!

Zipeau: OH, THANK GOODNESS! WE'RE COMING!

- STAY WHERE YOU ARE! - Marion: OH, THANK GOODNESS!

Marion: WHAT'S HAPPENED?

( growling )

HE FEELS REALLY COLD.

HE'S VERY FAR AWAY.

WHAT'S SHE DOING?

WELL, SHE'S... LISTENING.

COME BACK, DAVID.

DAVID?

( snoring )

- ( Zipeau clears throat ) - DO YOU HAVE ANOTHER MESSAGE?

YES, YOU MUST FLY TO VIDABBA

AND TELL THEM TO SEND A RESCUE PARTY AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

DON'T STOP FOR ANYONE OR ANYTHING.

NOW, GO.

GO!

THEY'RE USUALLY QUITE RELIABLE.

OH, WHAT A FIND!

OH, WHAT A MARVELOUS FIND!

THIS TEMPLE HAS BEEN LOST FOR CENTURIES!

LOOK HERE--

OGTHAR, THE GREAT KING OF THE WORLD BENEATH.

LEGEND SAYS HE WAS HALF MAN, HALF DINOSAUR.

QUITE REMARKABLE!

I DO BELIEVE YOU HAVE CONFIRMED MY RESEARCH.

THIS MUST LEAD TO ONE OF THE ENTRANCES TO THE WORLD BENEATH.

- BUT... - WHAT, ZIPEAU?

THE LEGEND HAS IT ALL THE ENTRANCES

ARE GUARDED BY CARNIVORES.

OH, DEAR. IF THIS IS AN ENTRANCE,

THE CARNIVORES WILL THINK WE'RE VIOLATING THEIR SACRED SPACE.

WELL, DON'T WORRY.

I HAVEN'T SEEN ANY CARNIVORES LATELY.

( growling )

( growling )

OH, MY GOD.

WE HAVE TO GET OUT OF HERE, AND FAST. COME ON.

BUT DAVID CAN'T WALK.

DAVID, WE HAVE TO LEAVE NOW.

I'LL GET ZIPEAU.

I'LL WAIT FOR YOU.

NO, KARL! TAKE DAVID AND GO.

ZIPEAU, GET OUT OF THERE NOW!

YOU REALLY MUST SEE THIS.

THESE CARVINGS ARE QUITE UNIQUE.

ZIPEAU, WE MUST GO! COME ON!

HMM? WHAT'S WRONG? MARION?

( roars )

MARION!

ZIPEAU!

ZIPEAU!

( growling )

( roaring )

COME ON, YOU CAN MAKE IT. COME ON.

- OH, NO. - RUN, MARION!

Zipeau: MARION!

( roaring )

COME ON, YOU CAN MAKE IT.

( growling )

Karl: NOW! NOW!

GO! GO!

JUMP, MARION! JUMP!

- AAH! - Karl: ZIPEAU!

Karl: I'M COMING, ZIPEAU!

( growling )

OOH! OH!

HELP, KARL!

( Zipeau gasping )

OH, OH, OH!

HE WAS EATING ME!

I HOPE YOU CHOKE ON IT!

COME ON, DAVID.
