After having Val swim with Mona the Mosasaur, Wu and Owen made an agreement that Val should be carefully watched. Her gift in communicating with the dinosaurs was too great to be revealed to all. He was lucky that Wu was helping them discover Val's gift. Wu observes her very carefully as well as the Indominus Sisters. They have been growing rapidly for quite some time now. Like when one week passed, they grew twice the size of Val. This shocked Wu very much that he has to monitor them every 24 hours. Though they were well behaved...well, Iris is. Ivy always gets into trouble like the time she snuck out from the lab to go to the restaurant in the hotel. They were lucky they found her before she could cause trouble, again.

But that wasn't the problem, Child Service came to talk about Owen's irresponsibility about how he let Val in Rexy's paddock. At first, Owen was terrified that he would lose custody of his niece, but luck was on his side when Masrani came and helped Owen win Val's custody. You see, Masrani heard from Claire and Barry that Owen needs to get his niece's custody. So, he hired lawyers and detectives to find out if his brother left a will. As it turns out, he did. Oscar hid the will underneath his drawer, indicating that Owen has full custody towards Val. Owen was happy by this but shocked when Masrani was the one to support Owen and his niece since she brought great attraction to the park with Rexy. So, long story short, Owen won custody of his niece with Masrani's help and Val will live happily with Owen.

Happy ending right?

Actually, no. There was another problem to deal with.

And that is the head of security, Hoskins.

Hoskins was trying to get info about Val, trying to figure out how she was able to make Rexy docile. He's been trying to get an answer from Owen, but the protective uncle didn't answer his question as he ignored him. Owen had to make sure that Val had to stay away from Hoskins. Soon afterwards, Owen has been sneaking Val to Wu's private lab to learn more about her gift. Wu has been watching Val playing with Ingrid, the Inostrancevia, for hours as he checks on her brain-waves for any changes. So far, nothing has changed, it was the same data that was used when she talked with Mona. Ivy and Iris were hopping on Ingrid's back, enjoying the view of the prehistoric mammal's back. Ingrid was rather calm about this as Val rolled a red ball towards her, which she simply nudged with her snout. Wu was rather impressed by Ingrid's behavior. She was never this calm before, she would roar and lashed out at him. But she was rather calm when she was with Val. It was very interesting.

Wu rubs his chin as he takes down notes whenever Val interacts with Ingrid or the two hybrids. He then notices that it was lunch time, he has to get some food. He was about to get Val, when he spotted the little girl fast asleep on Ingrid's side. He was surprised to see her already asleep while Ivy and Iris were sleeping on Ingrid's back. Ingrid was still awake, keeping watch while the young ones slept. It surprised Wu very much to see that. He never seen Ingrid's behavior like this before.

"Interesting..." Wu whispers before taking a mental note.

He went out to get some food for them to eat. As he went out, he noticed Hoskins was at the lab, observing the new batch of dinosaurs being ready. Wu mentally sighs. Hoskins would go to the lab and ask him or some scientists about any new dinosaurs. He's been doing this all the time and everyone knows why, to make dinosaurs as living weapons. Wu was no fool, he knew it was unorthodox considering dinosaurs can't be tamed as weapons, but they can be tamed to be as friends since he witnessed it when Val was with Rexy, Ingrid, and Mona. Wu quickly avoided him as he went to the elevator, but before the doors could close, a hand prevented them from closing. Wu made a blank look to see who it was.

Vic Hoskins.

Apparently, the head of security was able to spot Wu before he could leave. Wu sighs in annoyance as Hoskins enters the elevator, allowing the doors to close. He stood beside Wu as the elevator went down.
