Jurassic Park[]

- He discovered hidden dinosaur eggs which had already hatched, confirming InGen's decision to use frog DNA as part of the procedure to clone dinosaurs for Jurassic Park led to them inheriting said frogs' ability to reproduce via. parthenogenesis triggered by absence of male — cloned dinosaurs were created as females so they won't propagate.

- Contacts John Hammond to implore him to call in helicopters as soon as communication lines properly restored by Lex.
- Tries his best to hold off escaped raptors before joining the others in escaping through ventilation duct. He also helped Lex when she nearly fell due to one of raptors' attempt on her life.

- Reprimanded Billy for stealing raptor eggs, especially after noticing them not after him and his companions as their would-be preys.
- Acknowledging Eric's achievement of living long enough for him and his parents to come to his rescue, as well as Paul and Amanda's efforts to trick him to accompany them despite their initially strained relationship.

What Prevents Him From Being Pure Good?[]
- Although he subverts most of the corrupting traits, he is still shown to be prone to anger, shown when he angrily punches Paul Kirby and even abandons the search for his son (forced but still), as well as mocking the boy and angrily telling Billy that he is no better than the Jurassic Park builders. He does later show regret for at least some of this, but it is shown as a loss of control due to rage more than once.
