Everyone looked at the buffet that was left out for them on the tables in the common area. It was food they hadn't had in months since the fall of Jurassic World.

Jeff was prancing around the place playfully after being given a whole line of sushi. The little guy seemed to be enjoying his freedom on the island. With everything rhat was going on, they had almost forgotten about the little guy.

"The sun is shining, no dinosaurs are chasing us, and most importantly, breakfast is served." Sammy cheered.

"Feels weird to have nothing to worry about for once," Yaz said.

"Yeah, definitely," Darius says.

"I, myself, am very relaxed." Darius lied.

"Oh, same," Brooklynn said. "I'm, like...chill." Sammy and Yaz walked off, focused on them.

"You're not though, right?" Darius asks. "I wanna trust Kenji's dad I really do, but..."

"He gives off total liar vibes?" Peter asked as he approached Laura.

"Yeah, no, I don't trust the guy," Laura stated as she clawed at the food, using her claws like a fork. "Considering Kash all but confirmed he made me."

"What about Norman?" Darius wonders.

"I honestly don't know how to feel about the guy," Peter admitted. "He seems to be on our side. Which confuses me more."

"Yeah. But we can't turn Kenji's world upside down just because of a vibe." Darius said.

"No, but what if it turns out we're right?" Brooklynn asks.

"Why so doom and gloom in here, bros and girls?" Kenji asked as he approached them.

"I'm always gloomy," Laura informed him, not showing any emotion.

"Kenji!"

"Morning!"

"That's the spirit," Kenji said. "Man, am I pumped for today? Dad actually wants my help." He took some food and headed off to the table.

"I'm so happy you're happy, Kenji," Brooklynn said. "So, has he mentioned anything about when we get to call home or anything like that?"

"Well, you heard him," Kenji said, seems like he is siding with his dad. "He just needs a few days to arrange everything safely. Plus, he's super focused on the presentation right now. You get it."

"Right," Peter said sarcastically. "Because we understand the mind of a billionaire."

"Right!" Darius said. "So since you brought it up, now that dino fights are off the table, what exactly is he presenting?"

"I'm sure he's doing something super cool using Mae's communication." Kenji guessed. "We really got through to him. In fact, he even asked me to prep for the investor cocktail party. He said, and I quote, 'I'd rather you do it than those stupid robots'."

"Wow, Kenj. Nice." Brooklynn said. "How about I help?" She wanted to try and get closer.

"Oh, sorry, B. Dad's gotta get to know you before he'll trust you with an important assignment like this," Kenji said.

"And yet his dad expects us to trust him just because?" Laura muttered to herself. "It has taken me a long time. But I am sure you guys can find something to occupy time, right? Like... a date?"

That got Peter, Yaz, and Brooklynn to look amongst themselves. "What?"

"Huh?" Yaz asked, looking just as shocked.

"Ooh, a first real date?" Darius asks.

"Uh..." Peter quickly jumped up and chuckled. "I am gonna go see how Carla is doing. And this is not at all a way to get out of a kinda touchy subject that is still a little weird to hear out loud."
