"Kenji? You... you're alive?" Mr. Kon is frozen in place along with everyone else. He hesitates before letting his tablet clatter to the floor and rushing Kenji with a hug which his son gratefully returns.

"No way." Darius' mouth hangs open.

"Kenji's father..." Brooklyn mumbles as if this is some kind of dream.

"I never thought I'd see you again." Mr. Kon grins.

"Me too." Kenji matches his expression.

"It is sooo nice to meet you, uh, Mr. Kon, I'm guessing?" Sammy saunters over, "I'd shake your hand, but, uh..." She glances around at all the intimidating BRADs.

"Of course," Mr. Kon smiles, "Have the BRADs stand down." He instructs Kash.

"Are you kidding me?" Kash grumbles but fulfills his bosses' orders.

"Dad," Kenji regains his father's attention, "What are you doing here?"

"It's a long story--" Mr. Kon begins.

"Hey," Kash narrows his eyes at Sammy, "Do I know you?"

"I thought you worked with Masrani." Kenji returns to his conversation, "You run Mantah Corp now?"

"Yes, Kenji. A lot's changed." Mr. Kon nods, "I took over Mantah Corp after Jurassic World went down."

"So, you're in charge of this island?" Y/N tries not to sound judgmental.

"You're behind the dino fights?" Brooklyn adds.

"You let him keep our friend's prisoner?" Yasmina points at Kash.

"You made these death robots?" Ben folds his arms.

"And were you aware he tried to kill me!?" Mae cries.

Mr. Kon pauses for a moment, caught off guard by the well of questions. It takes him second to fully process Mae's piece, but when he does, he seems enraged.

"You did what!?" He glares at Kash.

"I did what had to be done." Kash shrugs casually.

"You were supposed to get things up and running, not commit murder." Mr. Kon stalks towards him, "Apparently, I gave you too much freedom."

"Too much freedom?" Kash echos, "You mean that you were happy to sit back while I did all the hard work!"

"You know what, forget this. This is my island." With that, he reactivates all the BRAD-Xs and they begin eerily stomping forward, "Party time."

The BRADs follow orders and surround everyone once again. They open their mouths and prepare their blasts.

"Take them out!" Kash commands, but they don't do anything.

"Execute override 9-1-6." Mr. Kon sighs like this is just some kind of inconvenience. The BRAD-Xs whir shut and power down.

"You didn't really think I'd give you total control, did you?"

Kash panics. He looks around at the array of angered faces before darting off, pushing past Mae and knocking her to the floor.

Y/N rushes to help her up and Kenji gets ready to chase after Kash, "I got this dad!"

But Mr. Kon snatches him by the arm and pulls him back. He instructs the BRADs to take care of Kash instead and they do just that, knocking him to the ground with a large blast.

"What are you thinking!?" Mr. Kon scolds his son while Ben and Y/N help Mae to her feet.

"I just get you back and you're needlessly risking your life when the BRADs could do the job?"
