The plot ofJurassic World: Chaos Theorycenters on Brooklynn’s apparent death, leading to questions about what really happened that night. Building off the events ofJurassic World: Camp Cretaceous,Chaos Theorypicks up not long before the events ofJurassic World: Dominion.TheJurassic Parkfranchisecontinues to expand, with the Nublar Six fromCamp Cretaceousnow young adults who come back together when they become the targets of a conspiracy.
Right off the bat,Jurassic World: Chaos Theory’s trailerincluded the shocking twist that Brooklynn was killed in a tragic dinosaur-related accident prior to the first episode — a devastating loss for the rest of the cast andCamp Cretaceousfans alike. However, as the rest of the Nublar Six quickly learn, there is more to the attack than initially believed. It sets up a larger story for Brooklynn in season 2, with the fast-paced story including multiple twists and turns. Here is what happened to her and how she factors into season 2.
Brooklynn Was Almost Murdered (Using An Allosaurus)
The Allosaurus Attack On Brooklynn Was Not An Accident
Until the veryend ofJurassic World: Chaos Theoryseason 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. DuringJurassic World: Chaos Theoryepisode 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 at the attack site. Brooklynn only survived thanks to DPW agent Ronnie, a friend of Darius who was able to reach Brooklynn before the dinosaurs killed her.
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.

Screen Rant interviews producers Scott Kreamer and Aaron Hammersley on Jurassic World: Chaos Theory, the sequel to Netflix’s Camp Cretaceous.
The note references that Brooklynn and Mr. Kon had a deal, revealing she was getting more information by becoming involved directly in the black market.This is how she knew about the dinosaur drop on the night of her attack, only for it to turn out to be a trap. As she continued digging into the DPW’s dinosaur smuggling, Cabrera sent threatening messages warning Brooklynn to stop. She wouldn’t, so he worked with the allosaurus attack to scare her into silence — only for the Broker to try and silence her forever.
Brooklynn Is Alive (& Why She’s In Hiding)
Brooklynn’s Survival Is Revealed At The End OfJurassic World: Chaos TheorySeason 1
At the end ofJurassic World: Chaos Theoryseason 1, it’s revealed that Brooklynn has been alive the entire time. After the allosaurus attack, it’s clear that Brooklynn went into hiding, leaving her friends and family to assume the worst, but the true reaosn was left secret to the audience. The most likely theory about why is thatshe realized that her life would continue to be in dangerunless she gave up on exposing and taking down the illegal dinosaur sales – a goal she wouldn’t let go of.
Another liklihood 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. Ultimately, all three of these theories proved correct in season 2.
Brooklynn Has A Good Reason To Go Into Hiding
The full details ofBrooklynn’s story are revealed inChaos Theoryseason 2episode 3, “C13v3rGr186.” The episode is largely centered on a number of flashbacks, delving into Brooklynn’s actions shortly before and right after the attack. It turns out that it was Darius' boss Ronnie at the DPW who rescued Brooklynn. Given her experience with dinosaurs and medical expertise (albeit with wildlife instead of people),Ronnie was able to rescue Brooklynnand patch her up enough that she could survive losing her hand.
Despite her temptations to tell her friends and family about her survival,Brooklynn ultimately holds back for a few reasons. Having already begun to track down the mysterious Broker, Brooklynn decides being dead could allow her to remain under the radar as she continues her investigation. It also prevents her (and Ronnie) from being targeted again. On top of that, Brooklynn overhears the villainous Jensen casually mentioning killing her friends if they become a problem, which convinces her to keep them out of the loop for their own safety.

How Brooklynn Goes Undercover
In season 2 ofChaos Theory, Brooklynn’s storyline sees her go undercover within the dinosaur black market. Working both sides of the conflict between them and protesters looking to “liberate” the dinos,Brooklynn is eventually able to meet the Broker herself, who turns out to be Soyona Santos. Santos is the same smuggler who appeared inJurassic World: Dominion, hinting at the scope of the operation. Eventually working her way into Santos' good graces, Brooklynn is able to learn more firsthand and witness her crimes.
This could be the key to Brooklynn exposing the black market fully, but may also be a bridge too far for her friends to forgive.
This sets up Brooklynn’s status at the end of season 2. Although she’s found by the rest of the Nublar Six and confirms her survival, she brushes off their attempts to keep her around. Instead, despite her temptation to rejoin her friends, Brooklynn goes with Santos to meet her other allies. This could be the key to Brooklynn exposing the black market fully, but it may also be a bridge too far for her friends to forgive. Fans will have to wait and see how things play out in the subsequent seasons ofJurassic World: Chaos Theory.
What Happens To Brooklynn In Season 3
Brooklynn’s Betrayal Plays A Major Role InChaos Theory
WhenJurassic World: Chaos Theoryended its second season, the Nublar Six were shocked as Brooklynn seemingly betrayed them all. When she joined The Broker and headed off as a new villain, it shook the show’s status quo to the core. However, inChaos Theoryseason 3, things picked up immediately following those events, and the Nublar Six refused to take this setback lying down. The third season opens with them leaping into action and chasing after Brooklyn and the Broker to get answers.
As most fans might have expected, the Broker and BioSyn play a large role in the third season. They are the overlying villains of the entireJurassic Worldfranchise, BioSyn since the start and the Broker sinceDominion(andChaos Theoryas its prequel). However, Brooklynn’s betrayal is the heart and soul of the third season, with one character specifically acting as an antithesis to what Brooklynn has seemingly become. In the end,Jurassic World: Chaos Theoryis headed for some heartbreak in season 3, and it is all based on Brooklynn’s actions.
