Ian Malcolm (Jeff Goldblum)’s Timeline and Summary

  • Ian Malcolm arrives at Jurassic Park via helicopter.
  • He's against the whole idea of the park from the start, finding it against nature.
  • In the jeep, he flirts with Ellie Sattler and explains Chaos Theory. It's something to do with drops of water.
  • When the T. rex escapes, Malcolm distracts the dinosaur with a flare but is injured in the process.
  • He is found by Sattler and Muldoon, who drive him back to the visitor's center with the T. rex in hot pursuit.
  • Patched up, he lays around the control room being sexy and briefly helping read a map and lead Ellie to the power source to restore power to the park.
  • That's about it. He lives, and he is on the helicopter leaving the park at the end of the movie.
