Instead of standing apart, Jurassic World: Chaos Theory season 3 pushes the series even closer to events shown in films like Jurassic World: Dominion. This season also lays a strong groundwork for a potential season 4 that could run alongside the major events in the 2022 movie.
The Netflix animated shows, Camp Cretaceous and Chaos Theory, have always run parallel to the movie series and continued to showcase the danger, wonder, and emotional weight that the franchise is known for. Most of the story revolves around the Nublar Six, and their coping mechanism after finding out Brooklynn is alive.

While all the secret activities and emotional strain take center stage, Chaos Theory still includes moments that highlight the bond between characters and dinosaurs—like scenes with baby dinosaurs or intense escape sequences from lethal predators.
But this time, the emotional toll feels heavier than before. Brooklynn, Yaz, Kenji, and Sammy each go through difficult personal struggles that push them into unfamiliar emotional territory.
Though the primary danger is dealt with by the end of season 3, the last moments of the season make it clear that one more big adventure might still be ahead, one that would fit right alongside the existing timeline of the films.
Santos’ Arrest & Its Tie To Jurassic World: Dominion In Chaos Theory’s Ending
Brooklynn’s Secret Work Plays A Key Role In Santos’ Capture
What truly connects the animated series with the live-action movies is the arrest of Soyona Santos at the end of Jurassic World: Chaos Theory season 3, which also hints that season 4 might bring even more danger.
Santos has been a major force in the series from the beginning—starting in the background as the “Broker” before stepping into the light as the lead antagonist. Brooklynn’s undercover work to expose Santos plays a central role across seasons 2 and 3.
Over time, she gains the criminal’s trust by posing as her assistant. This storyline reaches its breaking point in the episode “Morituri Te Salutant,” which plays out in the streets of Malta. This part of the season lines up with what happens in Jurassic World: Dominion, where Santos also appears and is taken into custody.
Chaos Theory expands on that moment by showing the behind-the-scenes efforts that made her arrest possible—revealing Brooklynn as the key figure who set everything in motion. Her undercover role, which stays hidden in the movie, becomes her most defining act in the animated show’s season finale.
It ties everything neatly with the existing events in the franchise and adds weight to the Nublar Six’s connection to the wider story, especially now that they are making their way to Biosyn HQ.
Where Are Kenji And Sammy Going In Chaos Theory Season 3’s Final Scene?
Sammy And Kenji Head Off In Search Of Bumpy At Biosyn’s Lab
Instead of joining Brooklynn’s mission to Malta, Kenji and Sammy decide to go their way due to unresolved anger and mistrust. While Darius, Ben, and Yaz go to help Brooklynn, Kenji, and Sammy are still too hurt to follow.
Their first plan is to head back to the United States and reunite a baby dinosaur, Smoothie, with its mother, Bumpy. But everything changes when they realize Bumpy has been taken, pushing them into a search mission of their own.
As the season wraps up, Kenji, Sammy, and Smoothie find themselves at the edge of Biosyn Sanctuary, where Bumpy and other dinosaurs are now being kept.
It seems all members of the Nublar Six are on track to end up at Biosyn, setting the stage for a possible reunion in season 4 and placing them right in the middle of events that align with Jurassic World: Dominion’s most intense moments.
The Biosyn Sanctuary, according to Dominion, was built as a home for dinosaurs displaced across different regions. But beneath the surface, the company had darker plans, using the sanctuary as a site for experimentation.
That location was also where the movie’s final act played out before the facility eventually became a haven for dinosaurs. The Nublar Six heading there strongly hints at their involvement in more than just a side story—they could be part of major upcoming events, especially if season 4 connects directly with the film.
A Breakdown Of The Nublar Six’s Emotional Clashes In Season 3
The Group Faces Deep Emotional Rifts And A Painful Separation
While past seasons of Jurassic World: Chaos Theory and its prequel Camp Cretaceous focused on the growing bond among the Nublar Six, this season sees that bond stretched to its limit. The fact that Brooklynn had been alive the whole time and didn’t tell anyone becomes too much for some of them to accept.
Though Kenji slowly starts to forgive Darius and Ben, he still refuses to support Brooklynn, who used to be his girlfriend. However, a more emotional argument takes place between Sammy and Yaz.
There’s still affection between Sammy and Yaz, but their relationship starts falling apart in season 3 as Yaz begins to see Brooklynn in a more forgiving light. During a heated exchange, Sammy admits that her own family has abandoned her and that Yaz’s emotional distance while undergoing therapy hurt her deeply.
These emotions become too much to manage, and both girls agree to end their relationship. Before going their separate ways, the group breaks up on a deeper emotional level. While season 4 may reunite them physically, the personal wounds from season 3 are likely to linger for a long time.
Is Brooklynn Turning Into A Villain In Chaos Theory?
She’s Still A Hero, But She’s Pushing Ethical Limits
Brooklynn’s story across this season deals with her increasing willingness to make questionable choices if it means protecting others or stopping evil. This change in her behavior is what first draws Santos to her in season 2 and deepens their complex bond by season 3.
In some ways, Brooklynn adapts well to Santos’ no-nonsense, profit-driven approach. While she never shows any interest in truly joining Santos’ black-market dealings, she gets swept up in the power and influence she gains by staying close to her.
While Brooklynn had been voiced by Jenna Ortega in Camp Cretaceous, she’s voiced by Kiersten Kelly in Chaos Theory. One of the season’s strongest moments comes when Brooklynn tries to stay undercover while also protecting a young journalist named Davi.
Davi, who once looked up to her, becomes terrified after Brooklynn threatens him—something she does instinctively, without fully thinking. She still manages to close the season as a brave and determined character, but the way she handles things makes it clear that she’s becoming more hardened.
Her success is partly due to these tough qualities, which help her survive, but they also raise questions about what kind of person she’s becoming in this morally grey environment.
How Season 3’s Ending Prepares Chaos Theory For Season 4

Although Jurassic World: Chaos Theory season 3 doesn’t finish with a shocking final scene, it leaves behind too many open threads for the story to feel fully complete. Brooklynn’s conflict with the Broker has been wrapped up, but within the group, several personal stories remain unsettled.
On top of that, Bumpy’s disappearance and the group’s emotional split still need to be addressed, especially now that all six members seem headed toward the same location—one that also happens to be where Jurassic World: Dominion reached its climax.
This setup presents a strong chance for the show to bring the Nublar Six face-to-face with some familiar characters from the live-action films.
Though season 3 feels like it’s moving toward a proper ending, unresolved plots like Bumpy’s fate, Dodgson’s twisted research with genetically modified locusts and the personal rifts among the Nublar Six make it hard to call this the finish line.
Season 3 of Chaos Theory holds its own as a powerful chapter, but it appears to be preparing for an even bigger continuation in a fourth season.
