Jess, Yoder, and Sorkin rushed into a room. Jess slammed the door shut, halting the Troodons' chase.
Yoder peered around a corner, cautiously.
"Would ya look at this..." Yoder said.
Jess and Sorkin followed Yoder into a large, open room. Catwalks surrounded four large tanks of water.
"What are they?" Jess asked.
"They look like feeder tanks." Sorkin said. "This could be a hatchery."
"A hatcher...what?"
"They're raising these fish to feed another animal." Sorkin explained. "Like at the National Aquarium."
"Like the sharks?" Jess asked.
"Precisely."
"That's a lot of fish." Jess said in amazement. "How many sharks are they feeding?"
"I don't know." Sorkin said. "It looks like each of these tanks could feed eight to twelve sharks per day."
"You're a fish expert now?" Yoder asked, snidely.
"I can make an educated guess." Sorkin said.
"Look, there's a sign over there." Jess pointed at a chalkboard hanging on a wall. "It looks like a schedule or something."
"This is a hatchery." Sorkin confirmed. "That's the stocking schedule for the tanks."
"Something tells me these fish aren't for feeding sharks, huh, doc?" Yoder said.
Sorkin rolled her eyes.
