Synopsis - After failing to make it to the last Evacuation Ship, the campers are now stranded on Isla Nublar and with the Dinosaurs roaming what remains of the park. The Campers struggle to survive until rescue comes, they are faced with dangerous dinosaurs including the T-Rex. However they soon learn that they are not only on the Island, and soon find themselves against something sinister transpiring on Isla Nublar!
Season 2 takes place a days after the first season, and the campers head back into the island after, failing to make it to the last evacuation boat. We see how the park, has now become a habitat for the dinosaurs, as we see them now free to roam throughout the island. Through season 2, we see how the dinosaurs are adapting to the changes, as well as see some behavior through certain types of dino's. As the campers are struggling to survive, they find some certain struggle within themselves, as well as against each other. The campers also discovers some mysteries, within the island, as well as come across many unexpected surprises, including a reunion they never though possible!
Darius Bowman (Voiced by. Paul-Mikél Williams), continues to work hard, in figuring out a way to get him and the other's off the island, as he made a promise to them that he would. He finds a method to send a distress beacon, but upon learning that the device is with the nest of the Tyrannosaurus Rex Nest, he formulates a plan and with the help of the others, they were able to distract the T-Rex long enough to activate the beacon. Darius then leads the other's into the best place for them to take shelter, as they wait for rescue, which was the remains of they're Camp Ground. We see through the season, that Darius is guilt ridden over what happen to Ben and how he failed to hold on to him, which make's him determine to ensure that the other's will get off the island no matter the cost to himself.
Darius was the most excited in seeing how the dinosaurs were now living, and documenting what he has discovered. During a scouting with Kenji in figuring out what happen to their water supply, they came across a watering hole, where all dinosaurs predators and herbivore's gather in peace and Darius proves this further by joining them. Upon returning to camp and regrouping with the other's Darius saw a camp fire at a distance as the other's saw and he realize that they are not alone. This leads them all to go where they saw the fire assuming that it was rescue that came for them, however when Darius went to check from the tree to which direction to go to, he saw that the fire was gone. After fearing that they had lost they're chance, they are soon attacked by a Ceratosaurus, but were saved by a group of Eco Activist Mitch, Tip and Hap, who came to the island to study and document the dinosaurs. Darius was thrilled to meet them, as well as the other's, the Eco group promised to take them home in a few days, when they're ship return. As they spent some time together, Darius formed a bond with Mitch, as the two had a love of Dinosaurs and helped them see many dinosaurs that they've been wanting to meet and promise to take them to the watering hole, however he is unaware that the Eco group are not what they say they are, and Darius refuses to listen to Brooklynn when she starts to suspect something and leads two to be at odds with each other. When the other's started to suspect something off, after the disappearance of Brooklynn and Kenji, Darius was still convince, and leads him to prove that Mitch and Tiff are nice people who will help them, however in his search, he realizes he was the one wrong when he found a severed head of a Sinoceratop and after confronting Mitch Darius learns that he and Tiff are actually Hunters here to hunt Dinosaurs and collect trophies. Though Darius no long wanted to help, he was left with no choice when they held Yaz and Sammy hostage and was force to lead them to the watering hole. However as they made they're way, Darius formed a plan and helped Yaz escape with a hint, at where he was taking them instead which was the T-Rex nesting grounds.
Their Darius and Sammy were able to break free from Mitch and Tiff, and manage to take their guns, but they were manage to get back their guns and leave Darius and Sammy with the T-Rex. With the help of their friends, Darius and Sammy were able to escape from the T-Rex, but still needed to stop Mitch and Tiff. Darius wanted to go alone to deal with them as he felt it was his fault, however his friends were going to stick by his side. After coming up with a plan, they set out to stop Mitch and Tiff, but when there was a complication, Darius set out on his own to stop them, which upset Brooklynn. Darius manage to get to Mitch and Tiff before they could take their first shot at a Dinosaur, however he was soon to be remove, until Brooklynn came in a Gyrosphere and knocked Mitch and Tiff down. They both were able to distract Mitch and Tiff long enough, for the others to evacuate the heard, and Darius and Brooklynn escape from Mitch and Tiff in the Gyrosphere. As they made they're escape, the Gyrosphere lost power and Mitch and Tiff found them, but the Dinosaurs came back charging at them forcing Mitch and Tiff run and the Gyrosphere regains power and they out drive the herd! Both Darius and Brooklynn then made they way to the docks, to stop Tiff from taking the boat, but they arrived too late and Tiff was already out too far. Though they didn't get to the boat, Darius was reunited with the other's including Ben and Bumpy, who he hug and apologies for not hanging on to him at the Monorail. Darius then looks to the other's and tells them, that they will no longer wait for rescue to come to them and it's time for them to find a way off the island themselves!
In Season 2, Darius truly takes on the responsibilities as a leader greatly and works hard in finding a solution to get everyone home. Though his efforts sometimes blinds him and also take risk to himself. This is because he is still filled with guilt that he couldn't save Ben, this the also why he is willing to take on any risk to himself, if it means that his friends can go home, as he also believes that he has failed in doing so! However thanks to Brooklynn, Darius was able to finally understand and also given a new drive, into leading the other's.
Brooklynn (Voiced by. Jenna Ortega), helps in trying to survive on an island that is filled with dinosaurs that can now roam free anywhere. She still however wishes to show the experiences she and the other campers gain to her viewers, to which she was able to do when she found a digital camera to help her, but in the end she sacrifices that to help save Ben and Kenji from a T-Rex. When they return to their camp grounds and decided to be the place for them to stay as they waited for rescue to arrive, Brooklynn started to hear these weird sound's, at first she though it was just a bird or in her head, but after hearing multiple times, she decided to find out what he was, which lead her to find a pod of frozen flowers. Seeing as their was some kind of mystery going on, Brooklynn decided to uncover it, with Sammy and Yaz tagging along. As they journey through the jungle, Brooklynn try to join in with Sammy and Yaz as they were bonding, but had no luck as she couldn't relate what they were talking about, until they discovered that they all watch a show called Esther Stone. They started to hear the noise again and found the cause of the frozen flowers that lead them back to Dr. Wu's Genetics Lab. While there Brooklynn starting thinking of a connection to Dr. Wu, Mantah Corp and Birthday guy (Eddie). Her search into the Lab lead her to a envelope marked E570, but she and the other's soon found themselves being targeted by two Baryonyx. Fortunately she and the other's were able to elude and escape from them and get to safety, however she believed she lost the envelope, only for Sammy to reveal she has it. Upon opening it, she it's contents were not too her expectation only cards with numbers and blank card. Upon returning to Darius and Kenji, she saw along with the other's the camp fire in the distance and realize that they are not alone on the island.
Brooklynn went with the other's in hoping to find whoever else on the island, however when Darius told them they lost the trail they were following she became disappointed like the other's. However when they came under chase by a Ceratosaurus, they are save by Mitch, Tiff and Hap, a group of Eco Activist. After settling into their camp, Brooklynn started to become suspicious of the group, including Hap and her attempts to uncover what they are hiding, lands her in trouble, which in turns creates conflict with her and Darius! Still determined to find answers, she continues to investigate, along with Kenji, however there efforts soon leads them to be chased by Hap, only to be save by Ben who were shock and speechless that he was alive. Brooklynn gave Ben a hug and after, they tied up Hap and began to interrogate him. Brooklynn then lead them to the garage that Hap talked about in hopes of finding Vehicles to go to the docks, where they're boat is. Upon arriving at the garage they see that the Baryonyx have come, as they try to find a way in, Brooklynn learns that the Keycard she had, is a Master Keycard, as it was able to open the side garage door. Upon finding a Motorcycle Brooklynn drove with Kenji and Hap, however they soon were being chase by the Baryonyx. They manage to escape from them, thanks to the sacrifice of Hap, who in turn gain her trust and believe when he said that there is a boat at the docks.
Later on she and Kenji reunited with Yaz, along with Ben and Bumpy and learned from Yaz that Darius plans to lead Mitch and Tiff to the T-Rex's nest, which leads her to lead the others to go help Darius and Sammy. Brooklynn soon leads them to the underground tunnels in hopes to get to Darius and Sammy quicker, but soon found their route blocked. However upon hearing the noise again, Brooklynn and the others soon stumble upon a emergency control room. Upon finding it, Brooklynn decides to use it, to help Darius and Sammy and once they got the island's power back on, they were able to use the camera's to see where they are and use the control, to help Darius and Sammy escape from the T-Rex, after Mitch and Tiff left them to go to the Watering Hole. Brooklynn was onboard in stopping Mitch and Tiff, she stayed behind in the control room, to keep eyes on everyone, including them even able to use the controls to slow them down a bit. However when she informed the other's that Mitch and Tiff were about to reach the Watering Hole, Darius thought of a plan to slow them down and left Kenji and Sammy to continue on! However Brooklynn was able to deduce that Darius plan to do stop them on his own, which upset her and try to stop him, but was too late. Brooklynn then search for a way to help him, but along the way discovered a door that had the same numbers of the envelop she found E570, but she ignored it, when she found a Gyrosphere. She took the sphere and saved Darius by knocking Mitch and Tiff down. Brooklynn, then reminded him on how lost she and the others would be if it wasn't for Darius, thought as they talked, Mitch and Tiff got back up, however Brooklynn and Darius manage to distract them long enough for the other's to evacuate the Dino's. Brooklynn and Darius then made they're escape in the Gyrosphere, however it soon lost power, with Mitch and Tiff finding them, but when the Dino's Stampede in their direction, Mitch and Tiff left them and the sphere regained power and Brooklynn and Darius made there way to the docks. As they arrived at the Docks, they saw Tiff heading to their boat, planning on leaving them, she and Darius try to stopped her, but were too late. Though they failed to reach the boat, after they reunited with the other's she looked as Darius told them, that it was time for them to find they're own way off the island!
In Season 2, Brooklynn showed that she is second in command next to Darius, when she lead the other's into rescuing Darius and Sammy when they are captured. Brooklynn also still has that desire to uncover mysteries when one is presented. We also see that among the rest Brooklynn is the one Darius entrust with the other's should something happen to him. Also Brooklynn greatly values in all that Darius has done for her and for the other's. We got to learn more of Brooklynn's life, that she have private web tutors and she doesn't attend school. Also a mystery has popped up between her and her parents!?
Kenji Kon (Voiced by. Ryan Potter), continues to act like a spoil, privilege rich kid with a big ego to boot! Kenji does however try to cheer everyone up in his own way. We also see that he is still effected over the loss of Ben, as he still holds onto Ben's Fanny Pack. After helping Darius in activated the Distress Beacon in the T-Rex's next, he tries to offer a solution for him and the other's to stay while they wait. His choice was his Father's penthouse on the island, however that could not be the place as his father changed the lock's, after Kenji failed his Math class! When the group decided to make the camp grounds into their base, he stayed behind to look after Yaz who leg was still injured and Darius, Brooklynn and Sammy went to go find any medical supplies, while also moving the debris from the camp, however Kenji only did that work for a few seconds, then took a break on a relaxing tree. This creates friction between him and Yaz, as her personality to work hard conflicts with his. However when Yaz tries to do things despite her condition this forces Kenji to step up. After creating their treehouse, Kenji takes in their built in shower (despite it being cold water), he then goes with Darius when they're water supply run's short. During they're adventure Darius tries to show Kenji the wonder of the park despite, it's current status but Kenji is unmoved by it as he has been to the park many times and knows all it's secrets that he shows Darius. After finding the cause, of their water shortage and solving it with the assistance of some Stegosaurus's, but on the process getting chase by them, but when they lost them they soon came to face a Ceratosaurus. Though Kenji was prepare, wielding a butter knife, but were shock then the Ceratosaurus ignored them and thus found a Watering Hole. Though Kenji was hesitant in joining the dinosaurs, after seeing Darius standing between a Predator and Herbivore, Kenji also joined and after watching the other dinosaurs coexisting in peace, Kenji was able to understanding what Darius was telling him as he believed it was "Majestic", as well as tell him to document all this and bring show it to everyone when they return him. After returning to the tree house, Kenji wanted to throw a party for the day they had and accomplishing what they were doing, however during which they discovered they were not alone after seeing a camp fire in the distance.
Kenji ran along with the other's to see who else was on the island, but when they lost the trail, he was disappointed along with other, as they believed they missed they're shot, until they were rescued, when a Ceratosaurus, was chasing them and they met Mitch, Tiff and Hap a Eco Activist group. He then followed them back to they're camp and enjoyed a well sought breakfast and was thrilled that they will be heading home in a few days. However when Brooklynn started having suspicions about the group, Kenji agreed with her, while the other's just thought it was Brooklynn's imagination, though the reason Kenji was suspicious was because they act too much like him. After Brooklynn and Darius had a fight, Kenji stayed with herm while the other's left with Mitch and Tiff. Kenji continue to help Brooklynn find answers and went to go investigate Hap's yurt , but was caught by him and then chase through the jungle and just when they were cornered, they were saved by Ben and Kenji was shocked to see him alive. Kenji was the first to give him a hug and was as he was happy to know Ben had survived, though was shock to see that Ben had a new personality with him. When Hap, told them what Mitch and Tiff were planning to do and that he was trying to help them, Kenji believed him, especially after learning that they're boat was at the docks. Kenji then followed Brooklynn, along with Ben and Bumpy and a tied up Hap to a garage hap mention to find vehicles to help them get to the docks fast. However upon arriving they are then hiding from the Baryonyx, that showed up. They were able to get into the garage thanks to the Master Keycard that Brooklynn had and were able to find a motorcycle and use it, but as they drove off they were soon chased by the Baryonyx, until Hap sacrificed himself for them.
Later on Kenji and Brooklynn reunited with Yaz along with Ben and Bumpy and learned of Darius plan to lead Mitch and Tiff to the T-Rex's nest. Wanting to get to them as fast as they could, Brooklynn proposed a shortcut that Kenji was not too thrilled to use, which then lead them back to the underground tunnel's. However after finding their rout blocked, Kenji along with the other's then followed Brooklynn and found a emergency control room, and Kenji was able to help bring power back online. They then use the control room to help Darius and Sammy escape from the T-Rex and learned that Mitch and Tiff are planning to head to the Watering Hole to kill the Dinosaurs. Kenji was onboard in stopping them and not let Darius do this alone and after a planned was made, Kenji took the bike and met up with Darius and Sammy and headed to the Watering Hole. However when they learn, that Mitch and Tiff arrived, Darius went on his own to allow Kenji and Sammy to get their faster, unaware that he plans to face Mitch and Tiff by himself! Kenji and Sammy soon arrived at the Watering Hole, with Yaz, Ben and Bumpy and drive the Dino's away, foiling Mitch and Tiff. However when they saw the Dino's coming back and the T-Rex behind, Kenji along with the other's made they're getaway! Kenji reunited with everyone at the Docks and though they didn't get the boat, Kenji wondered what they're next move was, with Darius telling everyone that their gonna find they're own way off the island!
Kenji still has a that Rich Boy personality, feeling superior to other's and having his own set of principle's, which is to do nothing and let other's do the work. However Kenji, shows that he has also grown, doing his part, when other's can't, as well as being an open shoulder to other's whenever they feel down. Kenji also shows his fun side and always ready to start a party!
Yasmina "Yaz" Fadoula (Voiced by. Kausar Mohammed), still injured from her leg from last season is still limited in her movement and requires help to move around or run when they are being chased, however this does not stop her from being a active member of the group and do what she can to help with survival, even take the first shift in watch patrol. She was able to help Darius, when he felt troubled and with some advice, she was to help Darius into figuring out what he needed to know. Yaz has to deal with being a hindrance, as she cannot do much with her leg injured and her friends having stay on the sidelines and rest, which frustrates her as she is a girl of action and determination. She wasn't too thrill in having Kenji watch over her as her go to personality contradicts his carefree not working personality. Though Yaz was able to have Kenji step up when she couldn't, which impressed her, as well as listening to Kenji in knowing her limits. After building their treehouse, as well as bandaging her leg, Yaz was able to move more freely, without any assistance. She went along with Brooklynn and Sammy in investigating the weird noise that Brooklynn was hearing. Along the way at the urge of Sammy, Yaz tried to include Brooklynn into their conversation, but found it difficult as Brooklynn has lead a different life then them. But upon finding hearing the noise and the source of the noise, both Yaz and Sammy find that they share a common interest in a TV show with Brooklynn that they all like. Upon returning to the genetics lab, Yaz help in finding answers she was looking for, but found nothing, and they soon came into contact with two Baryonyx and after a brief chase they were able to escape and return to the treehouse. Yaz then helped Darius with his journal and as they partied Yaz saw along with the other's the campfire in the distance and realize they are not alone!
After seeing the fire, Yaz ran with the other's in hopes of finding whoever else was on the island, but upon loosing the trail, she felt disappointed. Though her disappointment turned into fear, when she and the other's were chased by a Ceratosaurus, soon her fear turn to shock then joy upon being rescued by a Eco Activist group. Yaz followed them as the other's did, to their camp, where they enjoyed a nice meal they made for them. Yaz like most of the other's believed in Mitch, Tiff and Hap, as well as having hope in finally going home, however when Brooklynn started to have doubts about them and her conflict with Darius, leads Yaz to reject Brooklynn's claims! However upon learning of both Brooklynn and Kenji's disappearance along with Hap and Mitch and Tiff acting strange, she and Sammy distracted them, while Darius went to investigate which lead them all in discovering that Mitch and Tiff are hunter's and take them hostage to force Darius to lead them to the watering hole.
After being taken by Mitch and Tiff, Yaz was able to escape from them, thanks to Darius and Sammy holding Mitch and Tiff back and with her leg fully healed, Yaz was able to get away fast. She then reunited with Brooklynn and Kenji was shock to see both a fully grown Bumpy and a alive Ben to which she hugged him, which Ben was surprise. Yaz then showed them, where Darius was planning on taking Mitch and Tiff, then followed Brooklynn to the Underground Tunnels to get to them fast, but when they found they're route blocked, she then went with them and found a Emergency control room and helped bring power back to the island. After Darius and Sammy were safe and escaped the T-Rex. Yaz helped in stopping Mitch and Tiff from killing the Dino's at the Watering Hole, she then went with Ben and Bumpy to a garage and retrieved a Jeep and road off to head to the Watering Hole. Upon reuniting with the other's Yaz helped in herding the Dino's away from the Watering Hole, foiling Mitch and Tiff in the process. After watching the Dino's flee, Yaz was surprise as the other's as they saw them coming back and then understood why as the T-Rex had come. Upon seeing the T-Rex, Yaz tried to start the Jeep, however it would no longer start, however thanks to Sammy, she, Ben and Bumpy came to Yaz's recue and manage to escape the T-Rex. Yaz them reunited with everyone at the Docks, she then looked at Darius as he tells them, that they're gonna find a way off the island themselves!
In the beginning of Season, Yaz had to struggle with her limitations due to her injury, which compromises her character as she is a dedicated hard worker. However despite her injury, she is still willing to due her part. She also displays more of her artistic skill in both designing the Treehouse and drawing the pictures for Darius Journal. Yaz has also shown to have open herself to other's, as she shows when she helped Darius, opening to Kenji and getting along with Brooklynn. Yaz also has forgiven Sammy for her action and show to greatly care about her. Also Yaz is now showing to be a Hugger, only when the moment is right and for a limited time!
Sammy Gutierrez (Voiced by. Raini Rodriguez), is still the most energetic and optimistic of the group. Helping in finding a way off the island and help warn when the T-Rex return's, when Darius and Kenji were trying to activate the emergency beacon. Sammy kept track off all the places that couldn't serve as a base for them as they waited for rescue, as well as carrying supplies they manage to obtain at the visitor center. Sammy was onboard in using the Camp Grounds as they're base, she also went with Darius and Brooklynn to go find medical supplies to help with Yaz's leg, while Kenji looked after her (Though Yaz, would much rather have Sammy stay with her instead). Sammy was the second person in the group who was just as excited in the Dinosaurs behavior, just like Darius and when they stumbled upon cage Dinosaurs that needed help, she along with Darius were onboard to release them. That is until they came across a cage Baryonyx, in which she and Darius conflicted on what they should do! Sammy believes they should release the Baryonyx, Darius given that it is a Carnivore believes they should leave it in the cage, for their safety. Though at the end Darius did release the Baryonyx and they returned to Kenji and Yaz and then helped construct a treehouse, and upon moving the rumble Sammy returned a memento of Darius to which he was grateful for. After the construction of the treehouse, Sammy saw as their water supply was gone, though Darius and Kenji went to investigate, She and Yaz went with Brooklynn to investigate the source of the frozen flowers she mentioned, to which Sammy proclaim this to be a "Girl's Adventure"! While traveling Sammy and Yaz bonded and upon seeing that Brooklynn was feeling left out, nudge Yaz to include her and though there were things that Sammy and Yaz couldn't relate to Brooklynn, they all soon learn that they have a common interest in this TV show called Esther Stone, upon finding a vent that was the cause of the frozen flowers, that also lead them to the return to the Genetics Lab. As they investigated the Lab, as Brooklynn believed their was a connection to Wu, the Indominous Rex, and Mantah Corp, however they soon found themselves chase by two Baryonyx, but were able to escape and Sammy was able to cheer Brooklynn up when she thought she lost the envelope that she found in the Lab, that Sammy picked up. She, Brooklynn and Yaz reunited with Darius and Kenji and Sammy encourage everyone to have a party for the day they have and she saw and pointed out the camp fire from the distance and like the other's realize they were not alone on the island.
Upon seeing the camp fire, Sammy ran along with the other's in hoping to find whoever else was on the island and believe that is was rescue, but upon loosing the trail, Sammy believed that they missed they're one shot to get home. Until After being chased by a Ceratosaurus, with the other's, were rescued by Mitch, Tiff and Hap, a Eco Activist Group. As they went to the group's camp, Sammy was thrilled by it all and was happy to have a descent meal for breakfast and upon hearing that they will be able to return home, she like the other's were thrilled. However when Brooklynn started to have suspicions about them, Sammy was skeptical in believing especially when she though, they were sent by Mantah Corp. However, when Brooklynn and Kenji were missing along with Hap and Mitch and Tiff started to act strangely, She and Yaz started to believe what Brooklynn said was true and when Darius went to go investigate himself, while Sammy distracted Tiff with some random question's (Reference to season 1, with Dr. Wu) they discovered that Mitch and Tiff are hunter's. Sammy along with Darius and Yaz were then taken hostage and force Darius to lead them to the Watering Hole. Wanting to stopped them, Sammy helped Yaz escape, so that she can regroup with the other's and show them where Darius is planning to take Mitch and Tiff instead, which is the T-Rex nest. Upon arriving at the nest, they manage to take the guns and try to keep them away from Mitch and Tiff, however, after encountering with the T-Rex, Mitch and Tiff were able to get their guns back and leave Sammy and Darius with the T-Rex. They tried to hide, but were discovered, fortunately, their friends in the control room, were able to distract the T-Rex long enough for them to escape.
After escaping the T-Rex nest and learning that Darius plans to stop Mitch and Tiff alone, Sammy was against it and try to tell him that the guilt he was feeling was wrong, though unconvinced Darius still wanted to go in alone. It wasn't until they heard Ben's voice from the speakers, that made her speechless. Sammy joined in stopping Mitch and Tiff and she and Darius met up with Kenji and road to the Watering Hole on the Motorcycle. However when they learned that Mitch and Tiff had already gotten their, Darius got off, so that Sammy and Kenji can get to the Watering Hole faster, while he thought of another planned. Sammy and Kenji then left, Darius unaware that he plans to face Mitch and Tiff alone! She and Kenji then arrived at the Watering Hole, with the other's and drive the Dino's away, stopping Mitch and Tiff in the process. As they celebrated in accomplishing they're plan, Sammy and the other's saw as the Dino's came back and saw the T-Rex chasing them, which leads to she and the other's to retreat at well. Sammy hitch and ride with Ben and Bumpy, and she then pointed out how Yaz was in trouble and they went to her rescue and after a brief chase from the T-Rex, they manage to escape. Sammy went to the Docks and reunited with the other's and looked at Darius as he tells everyone that it's time for them to find they're own method off the island!
Sammy seems to have been forgiven over her action with Mantah Corp, by everyone, including Yaz. Sammy also still bring that cheery personality, that she displays. In Season 2, it is shown that Sammy is the second character most amaze by the new behavior that the Dino's are showing next to Darius. She also has the most concern for the Dinosaurs and also believes that she and the other's should help any that are in danger whether they are Herbivores or Carnivores! Also in Season 2, she establishes her catchphrase that she initially started in Season 1 "CampFam"!
Ben Fitzgerald Pincus (Voiced by. Sean Giambrone), was last seen in being taken by Pteranodons and was believe to be dead in season 1, and found by Bumpy in the last scene in the final episode. He appeared in the 1st episode of season 2, in a dream that Darius had, but made his true debut at the end with episode 3 with a adult Bumpy! In episode 4, we got too see what happen to Ben, after Bumpy found him, they were stranded together, Ben believed that the other's had made it off the island and will send help for him. Since Ben didn't have anyway to know which way to go back to the park, he try to find a path and he did however he turned back when he learned that he area were the hunting ground of Toro. He remained in the spot with Bumpy and manage to make a somewhat shelter for them. With Bumpy's help Ben was able to find food and water to survive and continued this routine, for many days and over the course, Ben started to become frustrated as Bumpy took up much of the room of their shelter and Ben ended up losing it and shout at her and made her run off, though he regretted it and he try to take her back, but she was gone. Ben continued to do the routine, but over the course he became targeted by a group of Compys and one night they surrounded him and ready to attack, but Ben mustered up the courage to fight back and with this newly discovered courage he had, he became more of a survivalist, was no longer afraid of dangerous situation and crafted a spear for himself to which he used to face Toro. When Ben faced off against Toro, he fought well, manage to evade Toro and got in some good strikes, but just when Toro gain the control over the situation, a fully grown Bumpy came to Ben's rescue and the two were able to drive Toro away. As the two continued to journey forward, they came across Mitch, Tiff and Hap and over heard them saying in getting rid of some "kids", which Ben theories that his other's were still on the island, thus leading to a reunion with Brooklynn and Kenji, after saving them from Hap.
After a embrace with Brooklynn and Kenji and regained his fanny pack from Kenji, Ben told them what had happen to him, after the Monorail. He then tied Hap up and gave his opinion on what they should do with him and his thoughts were pretty harsh and shocking to Brooklynn and Kenji. Wanting to intimidate Hap, Ben showed him a few wounds that he got, though Hap responded with wounds of his own. After Brooklynn broke of the "Who was tougher contest" Ben traveled with them to a garage with vehicles they can use. Ben ride on Bumpy, while Brooklynn, Kenji and Hap rode on a Motorcycle, when they made they're escape from the Baryonyx, they then split up in hoping to split the Baryonyx, but no luck.
Ben reunited with Brooklynn and Kenji along with Yaz who was shocked to see him and gave him a hug, which surprised Ben. Ben then followed Brooklynn along with the others to go help rescue Darius and Sammy, knowing where they were heading to, but was too far, until they took the underground tunnels as a short-cut. However when they found they're route block, they stumbled upon a secret emergency control room and used it to help find Darius and Sammy. They use the control room to help Darius and Brooklynn escape from Mitch, Tiff and the T-Rex after they lead them to the T-Rex's nest. They then learn of Darius planning to go stop Mitch and Tiff from killing the dinosaurs at the Watering Hole. However when Darius wanted to go alone, Ben spoke to him through the speaker, that he is going to help, as well as revealing to Darius and Sammy that he was alive which shocked them like the other's. Ben then rode on Bumpy as he, along with Sammy, Yaz and Kenji forced the dinosaurs to leave the Watering Hole. As they celebrated in victory while still herding the dino's away, they happy faces soon turned fear when the T-Rex arrive and started chasing the Dino's and them. Ben with Bumpy's help manage to save both Sammy and Yaz from the T-Rex and along with Kenji got to safety. He then reunited with Darius at the docks, to which he told Darius that everything was ok with them and he stand with the other's as Darius told them that it was time to find they're own way off the island!
Among all the campers, Ben has gone through the biggest character development. In the first season, he was always shy, scared and lacked courage to step up, until the near end of the last season. In Season 2, Ben had to go through solitude and after getting into a life threatening situation, he realize that it was time for him to Man-Up! He went from being a cautious kid, to become a full survivalist ready to take action. Though Ben new personality does surprise the other's!
Bumpy, The Ankylosaurus makes her return at the end Season 2, Episode 3 as a fully adult Ankylosaurus along with a alive Ben! At the end of Season 1, we see that she found Ben's body, after being separated with the others after jumping from the Monorail. After finding Ben, he helped him to survive in finding edible food and water, as well as protected him from when they came across Compys. However their relationship soon became strained when Bumpy continue to take much room of their sleeping area and Ben ended up losing his temper and shout at Bumpy, making her runaway and action he greatly regretted and try to find her to make amends but she was gone. She returns to Ben, days later, as a fully adult Ankylosaurus and helped him defeat Toro. She continued to follow Ben, listening in on Mitch, Tiff and Hap's plan in dealing with the "Kids" and learning that the other's are on the island and came to their rescue. Bumpy served as a ride for Ben whenever they were going to far off places and she helped in saving the Dino's at the Watering Hole, as well as save Sammy and Brooklynn from the T-Rex and ride them back to the other's at the Dock.
In Season 1, Bumpy was sometimes depicted as a nuisance and a liability, due to her small size as well as the noises she made, though that did help the campers be alerted to dangers. In Season 2, however she now serves as a protector, with her being a adult. As stated by Dr. Wu that all Dinosaurs in Jurassic World have an accelerated growth to help them reach a full size quickly! The difference in Bumpy is before she was more designed like a animated character, now that she is an adult, she is designed more real into how a Ankylosaurus is depicted!
Mitch and Tiff (Voiced by. Bradley Whitford and Stephanie Beatriz), were posing as a Eco Activist, who came to the island to document the dinosaurs in a free environment with Hap who acted as they're tour guide. They came to the Campers rescue when they were being chased by Ceratosaurus. They were surprise in finding the campers in the island and brought them back to their camp, where they gave them food as well as inform them that they will bring them home, when they're boat returns in 2 days. During which Mitch got close to Darius, as the two shared a great love of Dinosaurs, to which Darius showed him places he and Tiff haven't been yet and see Dinosaurs they have not yet seen. However Brooklynn started to get suspicious of them, including Hap, but this leads her to get into conflict with Darius as he believe that they can trust them. However Darius was soon proven wrong upon discovering that Mitch and Tiff are actually "Big Game Hunters" and have come to the island in hunting Dinosaurs for trophies! Upon being discover Mitch and Tiff, took Darius, Sammy and Yaz hostage and force Darius to lead them to the Watering Hole, so they will be able to kill all the Dinosaurs they need for they're trophies.
Along the way Darius started working on a plan to foil them, which lead to Yaz escaping and leading them to the T-Rex's nest. When they were at the visitor center, Mitch and Tiff knew that Darius lead to the wrong place, however just as they were confronting them, Darius and Sammy manage to get them off balance and take their guns. Mitch and Tiff then scoured the Visitor Center to find them, but Darius and Sammy manage to hide pretty well, that it until the Power and Lights came back on and they were able to spot the kids easy. However just as they confronted Darius and Sammy, they were attacked by the T-Rex, however Mitch and Tiff manage to pin the T-Rex, as well as Mitch antagonizing it and left, leaving Darius and Sammy alone with the T-Rex, as they no long needed them, due to the restoration of power, restoring the grid on the Tablet, thus giving them the location of the Watering Hole.
As they set out Tiff killed one of the Baryonyx (Grim), thus leading the other two to track them down. Once they made it to the Watering Hole, Mitch prepare to take his first shot, but was stopped by Darius, however as they were preparing to remove them, he was rescued by Brooklynn in a Gyrosphere. Those two manage to distract them long enough to allow the other's to evacuate the Watering Hole. As Mitch and Tiff watch, as they've been foiled, Darius and Brooklynn made they're escape only for them to find them when the Gyrosphere lost power. However when the Dino's stampeded towards them, Mitch and Tiff, ran, then up a tree but the last gun was destroyed. After the Stampede left, Mitch got himself tangle in one of his traps and though Tiff tried to help him, she abandoned her husband, as soon as she saw the T-Rex coming towards them. Mitch watch as the T-Rex Starred at him and then ate him! Tiff managing to reach the docks before Darius and Brooklynn, takes off and yells at the kids that she will never tell anyone about them being on the island and that they will die there. However while she celebrated in escaping the two Baryonyx (Limbo and Chaos) jumped on Tiff's boat and ended her!
Mitch and Tiff were the primary antagonist to the Camper. At first, they acted like a happy go lucky and caring husband and wife, as well as caring Eco Activist. They were truly cruel with an optimistic personality, though as long as they are in the right mood. When things go wrong for them, they soon become frustrated and annoyed.
Hap (Voiced by. Angus Sampson), was the guide to Mitch and Tiff, who came to the island to Document the Dinosaurs, as they were Eco Activist. He helped rescued the kids when they were being chased by a Ceratosaurus, and escorted them back to they're camp. Hap was a very unsocial, quiet, and stern person, didn't answer any of Brooklynn's question, when she try to get to know him better. Hap became hostile towards Brooklynn, when she began snooping around and trying to enter his Yurt. Hap knew that Brooklynn wasn't gonna stop investigating and stayed behind to watch over her and Kenji, while Mitch and Tiff, took the other's and went off. Hap chased after Brooklynn and Kenji, after hearing what he plans to do with them, though Hap manage to catch up and corner them he was knocked about by Ben. He then reawakened and found himself tied up, this is when he tries to tell Brooklynn, Kenji and Ben that he is trying to help them, as Mitch and Tiff are planning against the kids. Though they are unconvinced, Hap tries to gain their trust in telling them that they have a boat at the docks and helps lead them to a garage with vehicle to help them get there. At the Garage they are encountered with the Baryonyx Gang and after a brief chase, Hap sacrifices himself for Brooklynn and Kenji as he wanted them to have a full life and his sacrifice earned the Trust of the two!
Roxie and Dave (Voiced by. Jameela Jamil & Glen Powell), had only a brief voice only part in season 2, at the ending of episode. 3! In which the Campers are listening a Demo track Dave made mixing his and Roxie's voices into a music video that the campers though were pretty good!
The Season ends with the Dino's continuing exploring the island and along the way, a couple of Compys, shut down the power to the park and in the last scene we see a room Mark E570, which is the same Number on the envelop that Brooklynn found and discovered the door through the screens in the control room. Also when Kenji reestablished power, he pushed a green button that at first did nothing around him, but was controlling the cryo chamber containing a mysterious Dinosaur. In the last scene in season 2, we hear the roar of whatever dinosaur that is in that room!?
Theory: I'm thinking that it is the other Indominous Rex, that was killed and eaten by the first as was mention in "Jurassic World"!? The other Indominous Rex, was in fact actually Cryogenically frozen, by Dr. Wu, as a precaution in case something went wrong with the first Indominous Rex!
The Tyrannosaurus Rex makes it's official debut in Season 2, having only appeared in Season 1, as an obstacle in a Video Game that Darius played and also being in the opening credit sequence in the series! The T-Rex appeared in the opening scene to the first episode, and also became a obstacle to the campers when, the device needed to transmit a Distress Call, was in the nest she was creating. However thanks to Brooklynn who distract the T-Rex, allowing the others to activate the beacon and escape. The T-Rex made her next appearance in the last few episode of Season 2. The T-Rex stumble upon Darius, Sammy, Mitch and Tiff and attacked them, however as Mitch and Tiff manage to escape first, Mitch antagonize the T-Rex by electrocuting her with a Electro-Staff! The T-Rex, the went after Darius and Sammy, but thanks to their friends in the control room, helped them escaped. The T-Rex returned again, chasing the Dinosaurs from the Watering Hole, including Bumpy who was carrying Ben, Sammy and Bumpy and help to escape her. The T-Rex final scene was confronting Mitch who was dangling from a trap of his and proceeded to eat him!
Baryonyx Gang, are Dinosaurs that have been introduce in Season 2 and are the latest Dino's to have nicknames. Sammy named them Grim, Limbo and Chaos after the antagonist from her's, Yaz and Sammy favorite show Esther Stone! They made they're debut in Season 2, in episode 2 when Limbo and Chaos went to go in search for Grim, who was left behind in a Dino Clinic, when the Park was evacuated! After being discover by Darius, Sammy and Brooklynn a debate happened between Darius and Sammy over releasing the Baryonyx or not. Sammy believed that they should, as the Baryonyx had the right to be free, however Darius believed that in freeing the Baryonyx would put themselves at risk, as it is a predator (which was true as the campers had life threatening situations from them later), but they're debate was cut short, when the other two arrived. However after seeing that the two, came to rescue the one, Darius decided to set the Baryonyx free. The Baryonyx Gang had many other scenes in later episodes, encountering Brooklynn, Yaz and Sammy in the Genetics Lab, chasing Brooklynn, Kenji and Hap and also facing and ending Hap, after he sacrificed himself for the kids. After Grim was killed by Tiff, Limbo and Chaos, hunted her down, for revenge, to which they did after entering her boat and ending her life!
The Baryonyx Gang served as a secondary antagonist to the Campers, next to the T-Rex, who was also a threat and Mitch and Tiff as the primary antagonist. Though predator's the Baryonyx's showed to be very caring to their own, coming to the aid of another and even avenging when one of their own was killed!
The Compys had various scenes in the season and served as nuisances to the camper's who referred to the Compys as the Rat's if the Dinosaurs! Though they did serve as a threat to Ben, however it is through facing them that Ben discovered the courage within himself, which gave him the strength to survive!
There were many other Dinosaurs in Season two, as well as brought the return of some old one's including Toro. Toro, after being defeated by the Camper's from Season 1, has recovered from his wounds, leaving only the burned scars that he gain, and has made a new hunting ground for himself. We also see the return of Blue who was exploring the island and seen in various places with her last scene at the Watering Hole!
Like Season 1, Season 2 did have death scene, in keeping to the Jurassic Park/World Franchise. However like Season 1, all death scene were taken out of shot, due to the series still being a kids show, while also still capturing to an audience of all ages!
Season 2, made references many references to Season 1, with all that the campers experience, from the island and with each other, like Darius and Brooklynn in a tough situation inside a Gyrosphere. They also made reference to Jurassic Park with Dr. Grant and Jurassic World. A big reference to Jurassic World was when the Camper's returned to the Visitor Center and saw the aftermath of the fight with the Tyrannosaurus Rex and Blue Vs the Indominous Rex and also the Indominous being killed by the Mosasaurus! Another big reference is to the Watering Hole, where both Herbivore's and Carnivore's come together in peace, this is reference to The Jungle Book 2016 and the Water Truth's where animals of both Predator and Prey agreed not to hunt or fight one another (This is my reference to that scene)!
Season 2 contained that same, Action, Adventure and also Survival that Season 1 brought. However Season 2 also did great in adding Mystery into it, as with Brooklynn through her search, leads to further mysteries that are on the island. The Second Season still though captured that sense of amazing and wondered, when our character's encountered Dinosaurs!
