Jurassic Park Scene 2 Summary

  • Now it's daylight. A man in a suit is being pulled on a raft by a black man to a shore.
  • His Spanish guide on the shore mumbles, in Spanish, "1,000 pesos he falls."
  • The text tells us we're at the Mano de Dio Amber Mine in the Dominican Republic.
  • Somehow, the dude in the suit doesn't fall. He's a lawyer, and he mentions to his guide that they're facing a $20 million lawsuit from Jophery's family, but he can't believe that Hammond, whoever that is, isn't there to see him.
  • Oops, he trips over a rock.
  • Then he continues that investors are anxious about the park's safety issues.
  • Pepe, the guide, says Hammond "hates inspections. They slow everything down." Who needs safety when you're running a park full of bloodthirsty monsters?
  • A man runs up to Pepe and tells him to go into the mine.
  • As they go inside, the lawyer explains that the investors want two "experts" to sign off on the island. They have Ian Malcolm, but the investors want Alan Grant.
  • Pepe doesn't think that's a good idea: "Grant's like me. He's a digger." Pepe examines a chunk of amber dug from the mine, and the camera zooms in. There's a mosquito inside.
