The Shawshank Redemption Page #3

Of course I came down here.

Stories of mutilation and death.

Were you paying attention?

Please! Don't treat me like a grad student.

I've worked around predators

since I was 20.

Lions, jackals, hyenas, you.

Where's the fire?

I'm trying to change 100 years

of entrenched dogma.

Dinosaurs were characterised early on

as vicious lizards.

There's resistance to the idea of them

as nurturing parents.

Robert Burke said the T. Rex was a rogue...

who abandoned its young at the first

opportunity. I can prove otherwise.

Fire! Dr Malcolm, fire, base camp!

No! Water makes the smoke billow.

Use dirt!

Who started the fire?

I just wanted to make dinner.

I wanted it ready when you guys got back.

Do you see any family resemblance there?

You practically told me to come.

I... What?

You said, "Don't listen to me".

I thought you were trying to tell me...

Kelly, you knew exactly what I meant.

You have no...

You want to lock her up for her curiosity?

Where do you think she gets it?

- Thank you, Sarah.

- Don't start the teaming-up thing.

Out of the conversation. Please. Really.

Eddie, why doesn't this thing ever work?

It's not a land line.

You're not in a phone booth.

Wait for a decent signal.

Violence and technology:

not good bedfellows.

Hammond wants your equipment

as close to the animals as possible.

Great idea. And why don't you smear on

a little sheep's blood?

Eddie, is there any reason to think

the radio in the trailer might work?

Don't tease me.

If you feel qualified,

try flicking the switch to "on".

Okay, I'm taking my daughter out of here.

Anyone coming with me,

this is your last chance.

When you're out in the field....

Nick, if you're staying, I'll gladly deliver

a letter to your wife or loved one...

so you can say good-bye.

Eddie, if you have any personal effects...

it's the least I can do.

I'll be in there, guys.

Our presence needs

to be 100-percent antiseptic.

If we so much as bend a blade of grass....

- Dad, are you mad?

- No, I'm not mad. I'm furious.

This looks like your room.

- I was going to clean it up.

- Right now.

What is this? There are 100 switches!

Don't be mad. I was going to call

to let you know where I was.

I always do, don't l?

I'm the best kind of girlfriend there is.

One who travels a lot. You like that.

You love your independence.

I've gotten used to being apart,

but that's not how I want to live.

Kelly, this is tall talk. Just for a minute.

It's like a height restriction

at an amusement park.

If you wanted to rescue me,

why didn't you save me from...

that museum fundraiser

three weeks ago?

This is a slightly different situation.

What about the dinner with your parents

you never showed up for?

Why not rescue me when I need it?

Be there when you say you will?

I have made a career

out of waiting for you.

You know, she has a pretty good...

It's so important to your future that you

not finish that sentence. Please, outside!

Ian, come on. Look.

I love that you rode in here

on a white horse. I really do.

It's very touching, very dramatic.

I just need you to show up in a cab

now and then, too.

What are you doing? Don't go out there.

It's not safe.

Stay in here. Come back. Shut the door.

I know what I'm doing.

You guys should definitely go.

But I'm staying.

I love you. I just don't need you right now.

What you need is a good anti-psychotic.

- I'll be back in five or six days.

- You'll be back in five or six pieces.

What bothers you is that I'm not afraid

and you are.

Of course I am. That's the whole thing.

What's that sound?

I'll get you out on one of these right now.

Hello! Over here!

I don't get it.

It says InGen on the side of that chopper!

I don't get that.

Why would Hammond send two teams?

Cut the umbilical, Dad!

Doesn't he trust us?

We haven't even started.

This is as good a place as any

for base camp.

That's first priority after we're finished.

I want it up and running in 30 minutes.

That's half an hour.

- Understood? Over.

- Cancel that order.

What? Why?

This is a game trail.

Carnivores hunt on game trails.

You want to set up base camp or a buffet?

Let's find a new spot, shall we?

Over and out.

Peter, if I run your little camping trip,

there are two conditions.

First, I'm in charge.

If I'm not around, Dieter is.

You just pay us, tell us we're doing well,

and serve us Scotch after a good day.

Second, my fee. You can keep it.

All I want for my services,

is the right to hunt a Tyrannosaurus.

A male. A buck only.

How and why are my business.

If you don't like those conditions,

you're on your own.

So go ahead, set up base camp here,

in a swamp, or in the middle of a Rex nest.

I've had too many safaris with rich dentists

to listen to any more suicidal ideas.

Okay?

Cycle, break off the stray from the herd

and flush him to the right.

Snaggers, stay ready.

He's bringing them out to you. It'll be a...

Pachy.... Pachya.... Oh, hell.

The fat head with the bald spot.

Friar Tuck.

Stop.

Pachycephalosaurus.

Carnivore?

No, herbivore, late Cretaceous.

See the distinctive domed skull?

Nine inches of solid bone. Now, careful.

A pachy's neck attaches at the bottom

of its skull, not at the back of its head.

When it lowers its head,

its neck lines up with its backbone...

which is perfect for absorbing impact.

Snagger, Friar Tuck's on the loose,

just about to cross your path.

Dieter, get in the outrigger.

You're closing in on a carina....

Say that again, Roland. A what?

The one with the big red horn.

The pompadour. Elvis.

Take me out.

Okay, Carter, reel me in.

Easy!

Not too close.

Go for the legs! The legs! Watch the tail!

Burke!

Come here.

Recognise this trackway?

Yes, I do. Tyrannosaur.

Roland.

Where do you think you're going?

To collect my fee, Mr. Ludlow.

To collect my fee.

Oh, my God.

Procompsognathus Triassicus,

found by Frass in Bavaria in 1913.

Is it dangerous?

No, I wouldn't think so.

The Compy's been presumed

to be a scavengers, like jackals.

It gives me the creeps.

It's like it's not scared.

There haven't been any visitors

to this island.

There's no reason for it to fear man.

Now it does.

It's the Rex nest.

It's probably only a couple weeks old.

Never left the nest.

Offspring that young, the parents

won't leave him alone for too long.

make your blind here?

Wait for the buck to return?

If the nest is upwind, then so are we.

When he comes back, he's gonna know

we're here without us having a chance.

The trick is to get him...

to come where we want him.

This is why Hammond was in a hurry to

get you here. He knew they were coming.

my God, they are well-organised.

Those are major-league toys.

maybe I should ask to use their phone.

Their dish is bigger than yours.

So they actually want

to build another park here?

After what you said happened

on the other island?

They're not building anything.

They're taking these animals out of here.

Back to the mainland.
