Brooklynn Was Almost Murdered (Using An Allosaurus)

The Allosaurus Attack On Brooklynn Was Not An Accident

Close

Until the very end of Jurassic World: Chaos Theory season 1, it’s believed that Brooklynn died in an allosaurus attack. Brooklynn planned to meet up with Darius that night so she could show him the illegal dinosaur sales going on within the DPW. The situation went horribly wrong when the allosaurus was released from the transportation truck. Despite what everyone believed, this was no accident. During Jurassic World: Chaos Theory episode 7, “That Night,” a DPW agent named Mateo details exactly what happened the night of the allosaurus attack.

Mateo was paid to make an illegal dinosaur drop, but the other truck never showed up. Upon exiting the truck, he realized that the dinosaur wasn’t sedated like usual. The lock was then undone remotely, allowing the allosaurus to exit the truck and attack Brooklynn. She barely survived the assassination attempt, losing an arm in the process – which explains the blood. It’s unclear exactly how she escaped, but it could have to do with the DPW agent Ronnie, who messages her at the end of Jurassic World: Chaos Theory season 1.

Why Brooklynn Was Attacked

Brooklynn Wouldn't Stop Researching Illegal Dinosaur Sales

Before the allosaurus attack, Brooklynn began tracking the illegal buying and selling of dinosaurs using the conspiracy theory website Dark Jurassic. She figured out that the DPW was involved and wanted more information. Brooklynn went to Kenji’s dad, Daniel Kon, thinking he was involved in the illegal practice. While he denies his involvement when speaking to Kenji, the money and note that Kenji and Darius find in her closet indicate that he lied.

The note references that Brooklynn and Mr. Kon had a deal, pointing to the possibility that she was getting more information by becoming involved – possibly planning to take down the trade from the inside. This is presumably how she knew about the dinosaur drop on the night of her attack. As she continued digging into the DPW’s dinosaur smuggling, Cabrera sent threatening messages warning Brooklynn to stop. She wouldn’t, so he planned the allosaurus attack to scare her into silence.

Brooklynn Is Alive (& Why She's In Hiding)

Brooklynn's Survival Is Revealed At The End Of Jurassic World: Chaos Theory Season 1

At the end of Jurassic World: Chaos Theory season 1, it’s revealed that Brooklynn has been alive the entire time. After the allosaurus attack, she went into hiding; however, the exact reason isn’t known due to the last-minute nature of the reveal. The most likely reason is that she realized that her life would continue to be in danger unless she gave up on exposing and taking down the illegal dinosaur sales – a goal she wouldn’t let go of.

Another possibility is that she went into hiding to protect her friends. Brooklynn might have found out that the DPW caused the allosaurus attack and believed they would leave her friends alone if she were dead. A third explanation for her going into hiding is that she realized that she could get more done if everyone thought she was dead. She could continue researching and tracking the transactions online without constantly looking over her shoulder. Jurassic World: Chaos Theory season 2 will need to provide more clarity on this aspect of the story.

Where Brooklynn's Story Goes From Here In Jurassic World: Chaos Theory

Brooklynn's Corkboard Provides Hints About Her Possible Storyline For Jurassic World: Chaos Theory Season 2

In her hiding place – seemingly her secret apartment – Brooklynn has a corkboard covered with maps, blueprints, press releases, and photos. It seems that she is continuing to collect information on the underground dinosaur sales with the help of her friends on Dark Jurassic. One of the papers has a silhouette of a person, pointing to the possibility that she could be trying to find the identity of the person in charge of the dinosaur smuggling trade. This hints at a possible direction for Brooklynn's storyline in Jurassic World: Chaos Theory season 2.

Brooklynn could continue collecting information on the dinosaur black market, learning that it stretches globally. Eventually, she could go searching for higher-ups in the business, including “the broker,” whom the rest of the Nublar Six seek out at the end of Jurassic World: Chaos Theory season 1. This would bring Brooklynn back together with the rest of the group, who currently still believe she's dead.
