This week’s chapter is Skeleton, pages spanning from 42 - 48.

Synopsis

Alice Levin’s X-Ray of the biting lizard shocks Grant and Ellie, who diagnose it as a procompsognathus, and consider if it’s a hoax or a rediscovery, before Hammond calls to invite them to inspect his new island.

Discussions surround: 

Allusions to the Piltdown man, coelocanth's rediscovery, archaeopteryx, Fred Hoyle, the real procompsognathus triassicus, responsibility and safety, heroes and villains, Hammond's ironic comments on character, paleontology, costly digging, Child of the 80s, the Portrayal of Women, Hoaxes are Omnipresent, Timeline, Due Diligence, MacGuffins, and Building a Mystery.

Side effects vary from minor problems like a runny nose to life-threatening events:
