By dusk, the Fokker plane landed in a clearing. Off in the distance was a cliff wall with a waterfall, and several buildings nearby.
Gerry walked up to a blonde-haired woman.
"Dr. Harding..." The woman said. "Oh, thank goodness your safe. After we lost contact, I was worried something had happened to you."
"We have had quite a day, Dr. Sorkin." Gerry said.
"I'll bet!" Sorkin said. "Systems are down all over the damn park, dinosaurs are running free! Bring the kids, fun for all!"
Jess became very nervous.
"Hey, don't worry kid." Sorkin said. "We're fairly geographically cut-off from the rest of the island out here. Nothing but herbivores around these parts."
Yoder and Oscar approached the group.
"What's going on here?" Sorkin asked.
"There were some...complications." Gerry explained.
"Who are you?" Sorkin asked the mercenaries.
"We're just your friendly, neighborhood rescue team!" Yoder said, jokingly. "At your service, ma'am! I'm Billy Yoder, and this-"
"Look, let's just get this out of the way." Sorkin interrupted. "I'm not going anywhere. This part of the island is pretty remote and is a long way from the predators. I'm perfectly safe, and I don't need saving."
"That's not a good idea, ma'am." Yoder said.
"But, since you're here," Sorkin said, "what you can do is start loading the stacks of bureaucratic InGen paperwork that's taking up valuable space. They were supposed to have sent for that stuff months ago!"
"Listen lady, we don't have time for this!" Oscar said. "You either get in the plane peacefully, or I will personally knock you out, put you in cuffs, and throw you in!"
"You lay one hand on me and I will have you so deep in litigation that you'll be reading legal text for a decade!"
"Ah, yeah, yeah. You know what?" Yoder said, trying to defuse the situation. "If it'll help us get off this island faster, we'll move your boxes. Where are they?"
"Over there, at the loading dock." Sorkin gestured.
"You heard the lady!" Yoder said as he and Oscar walked to the dock.
"Hey, can I help?" Jess asked.
"Yeah...I'm not sure having you help is such a good idea." Yoder said.
"Uh, she needs you to carry boxes and stuff, not bring fugitives to justice." Jess said. "Let me help."
"Alright, alright!" Yoder said. "Are you always such a pain in the ass?"
"Not always, sometimes I'm a total bitch." Jess said.
"I find that hard to believe." Yoder laughed.
"Oh, yeah, watch what happens if we don't find any food soon."
"I can probably get you some dino-burgers." Yoder joked.
"Seriously, I'm turning the tables on the next dinosaur that tries to eat me."
