Synopsis[]

The team is on high alert when a pack of Giganotosaurus and a herd of Argentinosaurus appear at a fairground, putting innocent lives on the line. And to make matters worse, Ethan, Eve, and Darren have escaped A.R.C custody, with Ethan stealing important documents and the Lakes heading toward the anomaly site. Can the A.R.C team figure out what are their intentions are?

Plot[]

The episode opens with a girl at a fair wandering away from her mother and sneaking into one of the fair's warehouses. However, as she explores the warehouse, she sees an anomaly and walks over to it, staring at it in awe. However, a growl catches her attention and she turns around, only to come face to face with a Giganotosaurus. She freezes up in fear as the giant carnivore sniffs her before lunging at her. The girl screams as the Giganotosaurus snaps its jaws close, killing her, before devouring her.

Meanwhile, in the A.R.C interrogation room, Lester asks Eve and Darren about their relationship with Helen and what they know about her plan, but they tell him that they didn't know anything about what she was up to. Suddenly, the ADD alarm goes off and Jess locates the anomaly to the fairgrounds warehouse. Lester claps his hands, telling the Lakes that they'll resume the interrogation later before ordering two A.R.C soldiers to take Eve and Darren back to their cells and to send Ethan in. The soldiers escort the Lakes back to their cells, but when they arrive, Darren punches the guard left in charge of him and Eve in the face, knocking him out. Eve and Darren then make their escape, just as the other soldier exit out of Ethan's cell with Ethan in tow. He tells the Lakes to stop, but Ethan takes to opportunity to attack and knock out the soldier before releasing himself and taking the soldier's EMD. However, Jess sees this on the CCTV feed and sounds the alarm. Ethan quickly navigates through the A.R.C before locating a specific lab and entering it. He then rummages through some papers before finding some documents. He then stuffs them into his pocket before leaving the lab.

Meanwhile, the team arrives at the fairgrounds, which is in chaos as people frantically run away from something. The team splits up, but they quickly regroup when they find a herd of Argentinosaurus walking through the fairgrounds. As everyone stares at the titanosaurs in awe, Matt sends Becker and his men off to locate the anomaly site. Meanwhile, the team tries to figure out how to herd the Argentinosaurus back to the anomaly. However, before they can come up with a plan, the Argentinosaurus suddenly begins to panic before a pair of Giganotosaurus appears and takes down a juvenile Argentinosaurus. Danny then mumbles about their job getting a whole lot harder as the team watches the Giganotosaurus pair chowing down on the juvenile Argentinosaurus.

Meanwhile, in the A.R.C parking garage, Eve and Darren find their family car and hop into it before turning on the radio. They hear about the fairground incursion and after some deliberation, they decide if they are to prove to the A.R.C team that they can be trusted, they should take the risk and proceed to dive out of the garage.

Meanwhile, inside the A.R.C, Lester asks Jess for an update on the Ethan situation, to which she tells him that she's lost track of him. Lester expresses is frustration over Ethan's escape before the two soldiers from earlier arrive in the hub, leaning on each other. The soldier Darren knocked out tells Lester that Eve and Darren had escaped and that they were the cause behind Ethan's escape, which further frustrates Lester. Lester asks Jess to hack every CCTV camera in London to find the three, but Jess says they will unlikely find Ethan in the city, as he usually stays low, but Lester tells her that if that's the case, finding Eve and Darren will make him happier.

Meanwhile, back at the fairground, Connor, Michael, and Danny join Becker and his men at the warehouse to give him a detailed update on the situation, prompting Becker and his men to leave the anomaly site to the three as they head off to deal with the Argentinosaurs. Meanwhile, on the other side of the fairgrounds, Emily and Abby make their way over to the lost children's area, where they see a young boy there. Abby warns him to leave the area, but he ignores her and heads straight for the Giganotosaurus pair, who are now wandering the fairgrounds. The larger female Giganotosaurus spots the boy and is about to attack him, but Matt, Jenny, and Jack arrive just in time. Jack leads the boy away while Matt and Jenny cover him with cover fire. The Giganotosaurus pair roar in annoyance as the EMD rounds hit them and they quickly flee the area.

Meanwhile, back at the anomaly site, Michael notices one of the larger Argentinosaurus heading towards one of the water rides to get a drink of water. However, before it can get a drink, the Giganotosaurus pair arrives, scaring it away. The Giganotosaurus pair roar at the Argentinosaurus as it flees before spotting the team by the anomaly site and roaring at them. Connor deduces that the Giganotosaurus pair must've claimed the anomaly site as part of their territory before realizing that they are in trouble. As the Giganotosaurus pair approach the anomaly site, Danny fires his EMD at them, but it does little good as the Giganotosaurus seemed unfazed by it since Danny's EMD is a Type 1 EMD. However, Emily, Abby, and Jenny arrive and fire their EMDs at the pair, forcing them to flee.

Meanwhile, at the fairgrounds' car park, Eve and Darren arrive and they swipe some Type 2 EMDs from the A.R.C car before running into the fairgrounds. However, Jack, who was with Matt after they had brought the boy to safety, spots the pair running into the fairgrounds and tells Matt, who then calls Jess through the comms, asking why Eve and Darren are here. She explains the situation to Matt before informing Lester about the Lakes' whereabouts. Lester gives her a frustrated remark about the Lakes before telling her to send a backup team to the fairgrounds.

Back at the fairgrounds, Matt and Jack are following Eve and Darren as Jess informs Matt that backup is on their way. Matt thanks Jess before telling the others about the Lakes being on-site. Meanwhile, Darren and Eve have found the Giganotosaurus pair and are following them from a distance. However, Darren accidentally knocks a chair over, catching the Giganotosaurus pair's attention. Eve and Darren begin to shoot their EMDs at the Giganotosaurus, but it doesn't faze them. Luckily for the Lakes, Matt and Jack arrive in time and drag them to safety. Matt asks them why they're here, to which they tell him that they want to help and prove to them that they are trustworthy. Jack, after hearing this, is convinced and asks Matt for his opinion. However, Matt is unconvinced, but after some back and forth arguing, Matt concedes, but orders Darren and Eve to stay close.

They then come up with a plan to herd the Giganotosaurus back through the anomaly and calls the others to let them in on the plan as they search for the Giganotosaurus pair. They eventually track them down and using their EMDs, they herd the Giganotosaurus pair back to the warehouse. As the Giganotosaurus pair approach the warehouse, Connor opens the anomaly and the smaller male goes back through the anomaly. However, the female Giganotosaurus runs away from the warehouse and back into the fairgrounds, prompting the team to give chase while Connor locks the anomaly. However, Becker calls them, telling them that he and his men are herding the Argentinosaurus herd toward the anomaly site and to have the anomaly unlocked when they get there. Matt informs Becker about the remaining Giganotosaurus at to keep an eye out for it before he splits the team up, with Michael, Jack, the Lakes, and Connor to stay at the anomaly site while the others follow Matt as they chase after the Giganotosaurus.

Meanwhile, with Becker and his men, they are slowly herding the Argentinosaurs back toward the anomaly site with some tractors and cars. However, one of the other juveniles splits off from the rest of the herd, having spotted a tree to eat from. Becker orders his men to continue herding the titanosaurs while he deals with the juvenile. He hops out of the car he's in and walks over to the juvenile, patting it on the leg and trying to get it to move. However, it continues eating leaves and Becker tries again. However, the Giganotosaurus suddenly appears and bites the juvenile Argentinosauurs by the neck. Becker moves out of the way as the Argentinosaurus struggles against the Giganotosaurus. However, the Giganotosaurus forces the young titanosaur onto its side before snapping its neck. As the Giganotosaurus prepares to devour its kill, its spots Becker and turns it sights onto him. However, Matt, Abby, Danny, Emily, and Jenny arrive and fire their EMDs at it, distracting it and allowing Becker to run to them.

They then herd the Giganotosaurus back toward the anomaly site, where they see all of the Argentinosaurus going back through the anomaly. However, Connor locks the anomaly, prompting everyone to tell him to unlock it again. Connor quickly unlocks the anomaly as the Giganotosaurus enters the warehouse and they force it back through the anomaly. The Giganotosaurus goes back through the anomaly, hitting Michael and an A.R.C soldier with its tail as it goes back through before Connor locks it. With the incursion taken care of, Eve and Darren try to slip away, but backup arrives at the anomaly site and captures them.

Meanwhile, Jenny helps Michael up and checks on him before pecking him on the cheek. However, Michael kisses her on the lips, prompting Danny to jokingly tell them to get a room. As a squad of A.R.C soldiers enter the warehouse to guard the anomaly, the field team returns to the A.R.C with the recaptured Lakes. Meanwhile, on the other side of the anomaly, the female Giganotosaurus reunites with the male Giganotosaurus and they walk off into the forest as the Argentinosaurus herd continues on their way.

Back at the A.R.C, Eve and Darren are taken to Lester's office, where Lester gives them an earful, warning them to not pull that kind of stunt again or they will be sent to prison. While acknowledging his warning, Eve tells him about her and Darren's past. She tells him that everything was fine and that their family was beginning to live a happy life when the Tapajara came along. The pair are then escorted out of Lester's office while the field team stays. Lester then tells them that Ethan has escaped and that during his escape, he took several documents with him, including the A.R.C's layout.

Later, in the Menagerie, Emily watches Rex, Sid, and Nancy play on the floor while Matt silently watches the Raptor preen itself in its enclosure. Emily asks Matt what's wrong, to which he tells her that he needs to find out what the second Matt meant by "they," and that he'll begin his search for the information soon. However, unbeknownst to them, Abby had overheard everything.

Meanwhile, at an abandoned warehouse, Ethan walks through and door and gives the second Matt the A.R.C's layout. The second Matt and tells Ethan that he has done well and that Eve and Darren are a threat that must be killed.
