Unaware to them, young journalist and cub reporter outside, Jack Driscoll spies on them through the window and is on a deadline to get a scoop on Denham's project to keep his job for the NY newspaper.

Carl, Preston and Ann pull up at the Hoboken docks the next night where their moving picture ship, a tramp steamer dubbed the S.S. Wanderer is weighing to set sail for the Pacific. Carl introduces Ann to the ship's skipper Captain Englehorn and his first mate Wayland Hayes. Stepping aboard and being escorted to her cabin by Preston, Ann meets the young cabin boy, Theo, who kindly offered to help carry her luggage. To Ann's surprise, Brad Maxwell arrives onboard, whom she has bit of a crush on. Professor J.B. Hamilton and his assistant Christopher arrive with their scientific equipment, followed by Jack Driscoll who manages to persuade Englehorn to be on board to have five minutes to get an interview with Carl Denham. Ann manages to get to her cabin with Theo and Preston's help, she meets a feisty Latina second mate, Rayna Caruso who has taken a liking to Ann, knowing it's nice to have another woman on board for a change then helps her unpack for she and Rayna are roommates. Preston then leaves to assist Brad with his luggage. Jack nearly finishes his interview with Carl but with the last of Carl's production equipment on deck, the Wanderer has already departs from the port. Carl chimes in that having a journalist around will be beneficial for his picture and be a big story for the papers when they return. They were being spied on my a mysterious individual on board from the shadows.

The next few days have passed sails through the Atlantic Ocean the new few days as Ann settles in and Rayna hives her a tour through the Wanderer while meeting the rest of the crew along the way; the ship's lovable cook Lumpy, his two friends; Indian sous chef Kafi and Choy the cargo supplier, Briggs the ship's third mate and helmsman, Flynt the lookout, LaRoche the French rigger, Shepard another deckhand and his entomophobia friend Frank O'Neil, and Duke the tall but silent anchorman. Ann then meets Carl's production crew that includes his cameraman Gordan, the screenwriter Chester and sound recordist Jared. While going through her scripts, Ann comes across an unfamiliar rifle and curiously looks at it when a man steps out from the shadows behind Ann which startles her; a shady-yet infamous hunter Niles Serrone who Carl hired for protection and his tracking skills along with his associates Burke and Snyder. While reading and rehearsing through her scripts, Ann bumps into Jack Driscoll who he accidently bumps into her deck while carrying his note pads. Jack helps her up buts gets a "love a first sight moment" before helping her sort our her script. After thanking him she makes her way on deck for Carl that they're ready for filming. In the afternoon, Carl then starts filming a scene on deck shooting Ann and Brad together while other crew members serve as background material and the others watch. Upon finishing the scene Ann unfortunately soon discovers that Brad is not as charming in his films only cares for himself. However she did had praise from Jack, Theo, Rayna and Lumpy. Later that evening, Englehorn had a private conversation with Carl of their destination with Rayna and Hayes eavesdropping.

The next night, Jack interviews with Carl Denham along with Preston in the mess hall taking notes and discussing the truth of where they are going. In which Hayes, Rayna, Briggs and Lumpy join in to confront Denham of the matter after Rayna listen in on a primate conversation with Englehorn yesterday. After maintaining the secrecy throughout the trip, Carl reveals them along with Englehorn the map that depicts the uncharted location of the mythical Skull Island, said to be the last undiscovered land in the world which he acquired from the skipper of a Norwegian bark in Singapore three year ago. Though Hayes, Lumpy and LaRoche counter Carl's claim said there was more. Several years ago they came across a castaway who had been drifting at sea for days. The castaway had told them that his crew was sailing in the Pacific Ocean when they were shipwrecked on an island hidden in fog. He then spoke of a huge hundred foot stone wall built so long ago, no one knew who made it but it was still strong today as it was ages ago. Jack curiously asks of why the wall was built, Carl explained that the castaway was raving about a giant mythical creature feared by the locals “said to be neither beast nor man, but monstrous in nature" that rules the island as their god named "Kong." Before there was more to be said, the castaway suddenly died from a heart attack. Reyna was the only one unfazed and skeptic by the whole story for she doesn't believe in ghost and monster stories and claimed that the man was hallucinating from drinking saltwater and the whole voyage is a wild goose chase. They were soon surprised by the appearance of Theo, who was walking by for a drink of water. Carl then advise them to keep this conversation between them on the down low, especially from Ann and Brad. Unbeknownst to them, Niles was out in the hallway eavesdropping in on the whole story then walks away giving with a evil smirk hinting he knows of Kong as well.

One month at sea have passed with Ann from enjoying parties to helping Theo and Reyna and finishing several scenes with Brad. Jack's feelings for Ann grows more for he is in love with her. As tensions rise amongst the crew when the Wanderer enters the Pacific with Englehorn considering of changing course when all of a sudden his compass becomes erratic, as well as the ship's radio and navigational equipment started malfunctioning for the ship sails into a fog bank out of nowhere straight ahead. Everyone comes out see themselves unnerved and unsettled in the anonymous thick fog. Flynt perches up from the lookout. Englehorn orders LaRoche to measure the depths by lead line who read 30 fathoms, but no bottom. After ordering Briggs to reduce speed, Hayes and Rayna both suggest that they should stop the ship until Laroche announces that they have touched the seabed of 24 fathoms and begin shallowing. Carl then takes is as a opportunity to film a scene then calls Ann. The shoot a scene with Ann in the fog who screams then they where all stunned from hearing a loud echoed roar coming from the fog. Atop the lookout, Flynt looks around all sides then sees the encircling jagged rocks and as they sail further, Flynt sees land but wall ahead the fog begins to clear at daybreak. After dodging the rocks, the ship sustains minor damages then stops all engines by an open area. At daybreak, the fog clears to reveal an huge Island in sight with a stone wall and a giant mountain in the vast distance with a rock formation shaped like a human skull. To Carl's amazement and to Ann's, Jacks, Rayna's and everyone's shock and disbelief, they have found Skull Island.

After dropping anchor, Denham and Englehorn gathers a small scouting party with Ann, Jack, his film crew, Rayna, Preston, Hamilton, Christopher, Niles, Brad and 8 other sailors whiles Hayes to take charge of the ship to oversees the repairs. Jack believes that it may not be a good idea to bring Ann to the island, but Carl dismisses him. Theo stays behind as well. They all rowed ashore on the beach where Carl starts filming a romance scene for Brad and Ann. The filming was interrupted when Ann was distracted by something and they all heard a sound of faint drumming nearby and move on to investigate while three sailors stay behind with the lifeboats. They discover a large native village in front of a huge stone wall with a large wooden gate that cuts off from the rest of the island just as Denham described and they witnessed the island natives performing a some sort of ritual and they see a young native woman distressed in garments and an elder walks up to bless her. When Carl tells Gordon to film the ritual out in the open, the tribe's chief spots them and angrily halts the ceremony. The chieftain and his warriors approaches the intruders and ask them to leave in native language. Though Englehorn's native translation was rusty, but Hamilton is able to understand native speech and said that the Chief wants them to leave at once. The Chieftain's son and daughter, Amaya and Faraji come from the crowd to act as mediators between both sides for they speak english much to the crew's surprise. The two explained to them that they are trespassing and interrupted their sacred ceremony and demands them to leave. Carl tells Hamilton to ask them of what the ritual is about. Faraji translates his fathers words that the young woman is a sacrificial offering for their god, Kong at the height of the full moon tonight for it has been their way of life for thousands of years. They warned that If Kong doesn't receive a sacrifice, he would invoke his wrath upon the islanders. The chief angrily silences his children and demanded the crew to leave once more. The sailors ready their rifles to when the blind shaman joining them.

While the chief apologizes for the interruption, the shaman shakenly points directly at Ann Darrow seemingly captivated by her beauty as the "golden haired one" seeing her in a golden aura in his point of view. To the crew and native's shock, the shaman selects Ann to be a gift for Kong with the Chieftain agreeing with his decision. The chief then offers the crew to give them Ann in exchange for six of their women. Denham and Jack declines, thus angering the chief, Faraji tried to reason with him with the fact that Ann is an outsider, but he ignores his son aside and rallies the tribe's warriors to take Ann by force until the Shaman prevents them. The crew then make their way back to the beach, with professor and Englehorn telling the natives that they'll return tomorrow to be more acquainted with a better solution. With the crew gone, the Chieftain tells his Faraji to take his sister and go home and assembles a small group of warriors to bring Ann back by nightfall.

Back on the ship at sunset, Jack comes by Ann who thanks him for stand up for her from the Natives. Just before he attempt to confesses his feelings to Ann and before he could do so, Lumpy comes up and tells him that he needs a hand with vegetables and Englehorn and Denham want a word with him later. Ann then gives Jack a kiss on the cheek and tells him that she'll be in her cabin later. Night falls with Ann humming to herself alone on deck when a stealth group of natives sneak aboard and quietly abducts Ann, pulling her over the side and drugging her unconscious to be carried back to shore in their canoe. Hours later before midnight, Jack talks with Carl, Preston, Reyna, Hayes and Englehorn on the bridge of the situation with the Natives when suddenly they notice torches are lit throughout the village. Theo was on deck looking out to the village when he looks down and spots a boney bracelet on the floor then runs off to the bridge. In the village, a dazed Ann regains consciousness and finds herself wearing sacrificial garments and barefooted is being prepared for the sacrifice by the islanders. Faraji and Amaya tried to reason their father reconsider but he having none of it before the natives forcibly drag Ann through the village all the way to the top of the wall while they all continuously chant "Kong! Kong! Kong!" and the Shaman awaits her to be blessed. Theo enters the bridge urgently and shows the bracelet to Englehorn, Jack, Rayna, Hayes and Denham, who all recognized it belonging to the natives, only to realize that Ann has been taken. Calling all hands on deck, the sailors start to load the lifeboats with weapons - rifles and machine guns and Rayna gets her sword-like machetes while Theo wants to come along also. Carl and his film crew also discreetly load their film gear onto another boat. The five lifeboats row through the crashing waves while heading for shore.

On top of the wall, the natives tie Ann's arms to a wooden framework and the Shaman comes to bless her before whispers to her ear in english that Ann is special for she will bring peace to Kong and that she'll be okay, much to her confusion. The natives beats the drums even louder to attract their god and the framework starts to tilt Ann and two witch doctors gently over the chasm where the two tie her arms to a sacrificial alter with two great pillars on the other side and the two men return on the framework. The drums and chanting immediately stop after the Chieftain, Faraji, Amaya, the Shaman and the natives lineup at the top of the wall as they watch in silence. Ann struggles to free herself when she hears noises coming from the jungle; branches snapping, leaves rustling and birds fleeing. Ann vaguely sees something enormous through the trees in the distance but oily smoke obscures her vision and for can do nothing but hear heavy footsteps approaching. The smoke clears as the island god Kong, revealed to be a giant 30-foot gorilla emerges from the jungle before Ann who trembles helplessly in fear as the giant ape towers over her then rose up on his hind legs then repeatedly beets his chest and lets out a mighty roar echoing the grotto causing Ann to scream and the natives cheering. Kong then turns attention to Ann and examines by gently stroking her face and hair with his finger. Jack, Hayes and Rayna and the crew arrive the village, scaring the natives by shooting multiple flares. Kong also sees the flares and lets out another roar and pulls Ann loose, causing her to scream loudly that echoes everywhere for the crew to hear. Jack realizes she's behind the wall and starts climbing to the top followed by Rayna. Carl and Niles go to the gates and through them, they see Kong in the smoke holding Ann. Ann's fear overcomes her and faints unconscious in Kong's grasp as he carries her away back to the jungle but pauses. Kong turns his head and menacingly glares back at the two men followed by a growl before disappearing with Ann into the night. Jack and Rayna raced to the top of the wall only to see Shaman looking down at the alter and also see that Ann was already gone.

The crew regroups at the gate where they discuss of what they should do. Englehorn decides to assemble a search party to find Ann Darrow and track down the beast. Led by Jack, Hayes and Rayna, the group consists of Frank, Shepard, Rigby, Niles, Snyder, Burke, LaRoche, Brad and 30 other crewmen while Englehorn, Lumpy, Choy, Briggs, Kafi, Flynt, Duke and the rest of the sailors will remain at the village and the ship. Carl and his film crew volunteer to come along as they bring the camera, tripod and all the film stock. Hamilton also volunteers to join the search along with his assistant Christopher with their science equipment. Faraji comes out of hiding to warn them about the dangers beyond the walls and tells them further that many of their people did go out foraging for food but never return. Theo wanted to join the search but Rayna wouldn't allow it, telling him it's too dangerous out there with Englehorn agree with her. While the group finishes stocking up weapons, ammunition, food and rope, Englehorn promises Jack that they'll keep guard on the gate until he and the others return and he will provide more supplies from the seaplane tomorrow. Upon opening the gates and lowering the draw bridge, the party have begun their journey to the jungles of Skull Island with Shaman still on top of the wall looking down.

As they march their way through the dense jungle, they call out Ann when they hear noises in the brush then were attacked by a passing Ceratosaurus only to be shot down by Niles, killing the dinosaur. Despite Jack's eagerness to press on, Hayes decides for them to rest within a nearby ruin for the night that they'll have better chances to look for Ann in the morning rather in the pitch black. Rayna assures Jack that Ann will be okay before getting ready for sleep. At the crack of dawn, O'Neil and Shepard open up the supply crate for breakfast, they discovered that Theo has stowed away inside, alerting the crew. Theo insists of helping them find Ann and with the Crew can no longer turn back, they had no choice but to let Theo tag along. Shortly after, Theo, Jack and Rayna stumbles upon a massive footprint left by Kong then was joined by everyone in disbelief, believed to be very beast that has taken Ann. Astonished, Hamilton tells Christopher to get plaster to caste the footprint, for it shares similarities to a east-lowland gorilla. They follow the footprints along broken trees that leads to a cliffside view, the crews is shocked and discovers a vast array of Dinosaurs living on the Island from tree grazing Brachiosaurs to passing Gallimimus and soaring Pterodactyls. They soon were approached an grazing Iguanodon before continuing their march into the valley below. The Iguanodon speaks after they left "Strange humans. Mmm-hmm".

Meanwhile elsewhere, Ann wakes up only to find herself in Kong's palm while he still sleeps. Ann then slowly sneaks away to escape and runs off. She runs through the brush then passes a Maiasaura nesting ground then to open field with Termite mounds when she heard voices from the other side of a huge rock. Ann meets Rodney and Dumbar, a Stenonychosaurus and a Pachyrhinosaurus who scream in unison. Frightened at first but befriends them although they have never seen a human that looks like her before for they haven't seen them around this side of the island. Ann ask if they could take her there bu they never been near the wall before, as well as everyone else for they never bothered the villages and the other way around. Dumbar froze for he sees a raptor scout in the distance and Rodney tells Ann to hide in the log nearby. A Raptor pack shows up and surrounds Rodney and Dumbar then their alpha, Razer. One of the raptors Klaww sneaks around the perimeter but stops when he catches Ann's scent and finds her in the log. Alerting the pack, Ann makes haste with the Raptors give chase. Ann was then rescued by the arrival of Kong who fends off the pack then turns to Ann only to get mad for running off. Once he does, Ann struggles before finally settling down that Kong had saved her life and discovers the towering ape's true nature that he's no monster that she thought and two move on with Ann in Kong's grasp and the Rodney and Dumbar accompanying them along.

The crew made their way to the Valley where they came a cross a grazing herd comprised of Brontosaurs, Parasaurolophus, Corythosaurus and Edmontosaurus, and Stegosaurus. Carl had Gordon briefly filmed the dinosaurs with Brad in the shot, but the herds were spooked by a pack of three Allosaurs and stampede towards the party. The crew manage to avoid getting trampled but three men were killed. The situation gets worse when the raptor pack joined the chase just in time and Klaww catching a crew member and Razer mauling Jared off-screen allowing the crew to escape out of the valley. Raptors and Allosaurs are seen fighting over a dead Edmontosaur when suddenly Dharak the Tyrannosaurus rex emerges and overpowers both packs and takes the carcass with him only after to get information from one of the Raptors of Kong's whereabouts.

Some time later in the afternoon, Ann being carried by Kong as they are wandering through the jungle followed by Rodney and Dumbar while asking questions back and forth of where Ann came from. They later stop by a tree filled with tropical fruit for lunch which Kong sets Ann down and offers her fruit. Ann then ask them of what is life on the island like then Rodney explains despite the hazardous terrain, danger around every corner and lurking carnivores life on the Island is pretty simple, with the exception with the swamps. Ann asks why but Dumbar insist that she heeds their warning for what lurks there. Ann takes their word but she is still timid around Kong even after saving her life from the raptors. Rodney and Dumbar are very familiar with Kong very much and even though he's intimidating, he isn't so bad once she gets to know him. During a song, the music attracts other juvenile dinosaurs who were intrigued by Ann. To Ann's surprise, Kong was amused and calm by Ann's entertaining dance and sweet-talk and discovers the towering ape's true nature that he means no harm to her. then Dumbar slips and slides down the brush and foliage and stumbles on a Pachyrhinosaurus herd he's too familiar with as the leader Bulldust walks forward to see what was going on. Displeased, Bulldust had once told Dumbar to leave the herd and never return but Dumbar nervously claimed that he was just passing through. Ann and Rodney catchup as the herd is in awe by Ann's appearance but ended by the presence of Kong, much to Bulldust chagrin. He then berates Dumbar for his cowardice and turns to Kong that he brings nothing but trouble to everywhere he goes.

A baby Pachyrhinosaurus wanders to the bushes while following a Longisquama and noticed something moving. As she goes deeper, she's sees the Longisquama lands on something: the nose of a bloodthirsty T-rex. She runs out of the jungle in terror which catches the attention of the herd, Ann, Kong, Rodney and Dumbar. As it runs, the T-Rex bursts out of the jungle, revealing to be Dharak. Bulldust urgently tells the herd to run for safety as Dharak is only there for Kong as he charges at him through few Pavhyrhinosaurs. Kong and Dharak start to fight as Ann and Rodney watch one while Dumbar stands shocked, frozen with fear as he remembers horrible flashback from his childhood. Ann and Rodney trie to snap him out of it but Dharak pins Kong then notices Ann.

Elsewhere the crew regroups at a clearing hillside underneath some tree to keep dry from the rain, tending to the injured while Hayes orders Raynaa nd LaRoche to do a head count. Carl was distressed by the loss of Jared and with the assurance from Preston and Gordan that it wasn't his fault, Carl decided to dedicate this film in Jared's memory. Hayes reminds them that need to catchup with Kong if the wished to rescue Ann but they all have don't have a clue of where Kong is taking her.

Elsewhere around the same time, Ann and Kong rest by a large tree and a few ruins at a hillside with Rodney and Dumbar as the rain stop. Ann comments of her first day out in the jungle of making new friends (and enemies) Rodney explains to Ann that Dumbar used to be part of that herd until there was an incident involving a bloodthirsty Acrocanthosaurus attacking the herd which he failed to protect due to his cowardice which led him to be kicked out of the herd. After explaining his own backstory to Ann, Rodney and Dumbar founded each other and had became inseparable since. As Ann comforts Dumbar, Rodney also tells her of Kong's unpleasant history with Dharak. she ask the two of where Kong lives. Rodney points out to the mountains in the vast distance where the tallest peak, Skull Mountain lies a long lost temple where Kong resides. The scene switches While Prof Hamilton is looking on through the jungles his telescope, he spots a ruin in the mountains far distance and Carl speculating that is Kong's lair and Jack ask how would he know that. Carl simply stated that's where'd he live if was king of the island and then trademarks the name "King Kong." Hayes then states that's where they need to go to find Ann but Niles did point out it's another hundred miles away and couldn't find anymore tracks. Upon seeing a river close by, Hayes orders then tells everyone to make camp for the night with Laroche and Shepard keeping watch over the perimeter. Awhile the rest of the crewmen were to gather logs to build rafts. Then scene switches back to Ann asking Rodney and Dumbar if there are more apes like Kong up there, maybe his family. They remain silent but answers back simply "maybe." Ann then turns her attention to Kong for she is much more comfortable with him now

The clouds begin to clears and reveals an Aurora Borealis lighting up the night sky. Rodney always wondered what they are and Ann explains that it's an Aurora

Meanwhile back at the wall, despite being fifteen years since the Great War, Captain Englehorn preps the seaplane to send in supplies for the search party with Lumpy joining him as his co-pilot and the two take off.

The following early morning, Kong moves on with Ann resting on his should but leaves Rodney and Dumbar behind who are still asleep. A the same time, the crew finish board the rafts then travel up stream and while to enjoy the scenery of any dinosaurs, they realize that they were being pursued by a pair of two T-Rexes with Carl filming them. The situation worsens as the crew heads for the raging rapids leading to a fork straight ahead. A T-rexes jumps to them, causing Theo to be separated from the crew much to Rayna's Jack's and Hayes' shock as he takes the right stream while the continue to the left. The T-rexes immediately stop their chase as the rafts make their way toward the swamp nodding the "she" will be their problem now.

Meanwhile Ann spends a lot of time with Kong spend from tending to her minor injuries to having fun with her. During the song, Ann helping out and befriending a few dinosaurs along the way such as helping a Dimetrodon finding a place for catching the sun, getting a baby triceratops out of the mud and returning a pterodactyl chick back to her nest. The song ends with Kong giving Ann a beautiful flower native to the island but notices that she's a little dirty and finds a place to clean her.

The crew paddle their way through the misty swamp and notices that there aren't any dinosaurs around with Carl, Gordon, Preston and Brad looking every direction. Rayna worries for Theo but Jack asures her that they'll find him too and hopefully Ann. As Shepard tries to drink his flask to come his nerves, Hayes takes it and throws it far where it hits a strange looking fin-like rock. However it was revealed to be a dinosaur sleeping while submerged with its nose sticking out but it awakens by smelling the liquor. The crew continue through the swamp when the rafts are swarmed by packs of Rhinesuchus. Jack, Rayna, Hayes, Carl and the others did their best to fend them off but they all retreat when the sense the presence of a predator nearby. They are confused for the movement the two rafts where hit by something huge beneath the water, which reveals to be a giant prehistoric eel and it attacks the two rafts, breaking them apart. This causes the raft's passengers to plummet in to the water. Jack, Rayna, Hayes, Niles and the other tried shooting it with rifles and machine guns to scare it away buy to devours six other crew members in the struggle, with Rigby amongst them. Brad struggles in the water pleading for help as it reveals that he can't swim. Jack swims a to him with Rayna's help but the eel swims towards. Carl tried to defend them but the eel ends up destroying the remaining rafts. Just when it could devour Jack, Brad and Rayna next when it was attacked by a large female Spinosaurus emerges from the swamp. The remaining survivors crew began to swim for the closet shore and runs to the jungle for safety while the Spinosaurus is occupied dealing with the eel then goes in for the kill. While eating it, the dinosaur soon turn it's attention to find the party for they have violated her territory.

The crew stops to rest for five minutes except for Brad who puts his foot down and gives up on the search much to Denham and the other's surprise. Convincing that Ann was dead, he decides to got back to the wall and go home not before Jack berates not only for being nothing like the charming hero he played on screen, but a both a fraud and a coward as well. Brad fires back at Jack and reminds him and the others that he's just an actor and that he never wanted to be apart of this for almost killed back there by the eel. And states th3 fact that they lost 8 crew members along the way including their friend Rigby. Although Jack agrees with the part, He won't give up to find Ann. Brad then advises Jack to not torture himself with false hope for he along with Rayna, Hayes, Denham and the others that they are all in over their heads. Rayna jokingly ask it he's done complaining for it's been getting on her nerves since they left. Brad angers her that Theo is dead as well, causing her to slap him and Jack punching him. Jack and Brad begin fighting each other but the fight was quickly broken up by Hayes and the others. As Brad leaves, Hayes asks if anyone else like to return as 8 other crew members join Brad. Niles decides to lead them all back with Snyder and Burke for he knows a short cut but promises that he'll catch up.

Elsewhere, Kong takes Ann to a waterfall and holds her under it to be showered, cleaning the mud off of her. He slipped his footing and drops her in to stream where goes over another waterfall but survives as Kong is relieved. While Kong finds a way down, Ann swims for bit and she was alone for he a felt something and divers that it was a young Brontosaur named Andy swimming by the falls and asks Ann why is she on his back. She learns that he's not alone for he and his family which consists of her mother, father and grandparents are bathing by the falls and greet Ann. Kong soon joins in to check on Ann who was then greet by the Brontosaurs. Ann was worried that they would hate Kong like everyone else but the mother tells her that's silly and learns that not every dinosaur hates Kong. As is reminded by his own family, he quickly turns his attention else where. Ann ask what was wrong, the fathers states that Kong sense something not too far from here for then nods Ann to stay with the Brontosaur family until he returns. The young brontosaur wanted Ann to come along with to join his friends and his parents approve.

Niles leads Brad away from the surviving crew members to have a little chat then leaves to die for a Raptor nesting ground as his screams were echoed nad Niles leaves to rejoin the others. Meanwhile, the crew make their to they to a chasm and see a tunnel on the other side. They soon see a hug fallen tree bridging the deep ravine and start to cross it. Professor Hamilton stays behind until the others make sure it is safe. As they were half way across, Kong emerges from the tunnel and attempts to intimidate the. Amazed at Kong's appearance, Hamilton advise them to try not to provoke him with Jack, Rayna, Hayes, Carl and the men hold their ground on the log. Suddenly, a gunshot was fired that missed Kong, which enrages him and he furiously shake and rolls log left and right the the majority of the crew off the log into the chasm below while Jack, Rayna, Hayes, O'Neill, LaRoche, Gordon, Preston are holding on for dear life as Carl films the beast. Kong then throws the entire log into the chasm below, with only Jack, Rayna, Hayes, LaRoche, Frank, Denham, Chestor and Shepard survive the attack along with few crew members left while Preston and Gordon grab on to few vines and Hamilton fainted. Kong decides return through the tunnel when another shot stops him and turns to Nile, who was revealed to fired the first round earlier. After having and eye-to-eye with Kong, Niles maliciously warns him that they'll meet again very soon with a killer look on his face but Kong dismisses him with a grunt and then leaves.

Ann spends time with a Andy and his friends when they all heard a scream close by, Ann goes to see who it was and finds out it was Theo who is on top of a dead tree after being chased by the same Allosaurs yesterday.
