Jurassic Park Scene 7 Summary

  • Now let's find out how they brought these dinosaurs to life.
  • The Jeeps take the scientists (and mathematician) to the Jurassic Park visitor's center.
  • There's a big ol' T. rex skeleton in the middle of the atrium. Um, how does the living T. rex feel about that?
  • Hammond leads everyone into a little movie theater where a movie version of himself appears on screen to talk about the park and the miracle of cloning.
  • "Where do you get 100-million-year-old dinosaur blood?" Sattler wonders.
  • Well, a cartoon named Mr. DNA swirls onto the screen to explain it to us. (We already know about DNA, Mr. Cartoon.)
  • Mr. DNA explains that mosquitoes bit dinosaurs, getting fat and filled with juicy dino blood, and then some mosquitoes got stuck in fossilized tree sap, or amber.
  • Jurassic Park scientists extracted the blood from the mosquitoes and—boom—dinosaur DNA.
  • Geneticists use frog DNA to fill in the holes in the genetic code and make a dinosaur.
  • Hammond is done with that movie, so he hits a button, and the theater seats rotate to a window where they can observe the scientists.
  • Grant, Sattler, and Malcolm force the safety bars off their laps so they can get off the ride and head into the lab itself to see the unfertilized eggs.
  • If this place can't secure people in barely moving seats, how can we trust it to secure dinosaurs?
