Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom recap
Three years after the park's collapse, Isla Nublar's volcano is about to erupt. Claire Dearing, now a dinosaur rights activist, is approached by Eli Mills, who runs the estate of Benjamin Lockwood, Hammond's former partner, with a plan to move the animals to a sanctuary. She recruits Owen to help find Blue. On the island, Mills's mercenaries shoot Blue, capture the dinosaurs and leave Owen and Claire to die as the volcano erupts. At Lockwood's estate, Mills plans to auction the animals as weapons, and Dr. Wu has made the Indoraptor. Lockwood's granddaughter Maisie learns she is a clone of Lockwood's dead daughter. Mills kills Lockwood.
