Whats so special about Karolina?

The plot, to me, has never felt more scattered.

(And so Frank and Leslie can just…watch this melee happen, I guess?)

Eventually, they return to the construction site, only to see that everyones gone.

Whats a group of five teenagers and a dino to do?

The Pride, meanwhile, has fractured.

They accuse each other of how much they knew about their kids abilities.

Turns out: None of them had any clue.

It wont be easy for them to get to Karolina, even with Leslies help.

Alex tells Gert she has to leave Old Lace behind (no!)

as dragging a dinosaur along will only slow them down.

He tells them that Gibborim is his family, and hed never turn his back on the Church.

Which is why Chase and Molly wind up posing as runaways and sneaking into the Church of Gibborim themselves.

They believe him for the time being.

Outside, Nico, Gert, and Alex wait for Chase and Molly to bring Karolina back out.

And at that, Gerts speechless.

Alex has a far less comfortable time onhisside mission.

All they can do is trust in what hes doing…or else.But what is he doing?

Let me know whats next.

On the other side of town, the Pride has returned to the dig site.

Instead, Leslies just as curious and even incensed over whats really at the dig site.

The Yorkes then report that whatevers down there isalive, and thats a fact Leslie didnt even know.

After all that, it turns out the inner circle of the Pride includes Jonah, and Jonah only.

Later, the Yorkes talk over what their finding means, questioning how its survived underground for so long.

So in other words, they need to use Jonah himself to destroy whatever hes created.

All they need is the support of the rest of the Pride.

And as Alex puts it, the enemy of my enemy is my friend.

Hes learned this lesson himself, calling up Darius for help.

Darius wants to know whats going on with Alexs friends, but Alex wants to make a deal.

(Good thing the other kids arent attempting anything this foolhardy.

As night falls, both sides gather again to figure out what to do next.

She admits that Jonahs been using them all.

(No s-, Stacey responds.

Staceys the best.)

At that, she glances at Tina and everyone understands.

She doesnt have to, as Robert points out.

Jonah, though, doesnt seem all that concerned about his mortality.

He and Frank meet again, this time with Frank saying hed doanythingfor Karolinas safety.

(At the very least, she has two devoted dads.

One just happens to be a megalomaniacal villain, the other a thick-as-cardboard minion.)

He then pulls back his sleeve and reveals that his bodys going gross and flaky again.Uh oh.

Its a plan thatll get Alex to safety before going to war.

With no other options, they decide not to wait around to purchase bus tickets after all.

Maybe it will in season 2.

It probably will, and Im keeping an open mind.

Besides, Old Lace steals every scene shes in.

Now all she needs is a chance to feed on a diet of all those extraneous story lines.
