Idiot-boy wants a burger or some chicken to eat. An outpost is deserted and its sun-stone has failed, but they must stay there the night. Marion notes that the carnivores "aren't evil they're just hungry by nature." Dinotopia does not believe in weapons, but there are disturbing signs that the tyrannosaurs are hunting in packs. "He won't eat us, will he?" "Brachs are plant-eaters," replies Marion, but the creature is armored because they have to pass through the rainy basin, the domain of the carnivores. The next morning the half-brothers and Marion climb onto an armored brachiosaur (the "bus"). A plated dinosaur rampages but a woman named Marion calms it and extracts a tooth, alleviating the toothache that caused the rampage. There are no cell phones they'll have to use a "postal bird." They trek to a village in order to catch a bus to Waterfall City. Moreau emerges, identifies the place as Dinotopia (about 200 miles across), and introduces himself as Cyrus Crabb, archaeologist. They soon see a cave shaped like a dinosaur head and it blows up. Dad is stuck in his seat-belt (kids, take note) and presumably drowns as the boys swim ashore. Dad Scott tells son David to stop complaining about flying and, in a small plane, half-brother David takes the controls while Dad sleeps.

This mini-series in turn became the pilot for a short-lived TV series, wherein the failure both of the sunstones and of Dinotopian officials to adhere to the underlying meanings of their culture's philosophy caused several discontented people – a leader-in-training, Zippeau himself, and two twentieth-century Dolphinbacks, Karl and David – to embark on a quest that led ultimately to the World Beneath. A new plot device was also added the sunstones, which are described as a source of power and protection originating in the World Beneath.
