What is happening?

You're alright, Dad.

You just fainted
for a second.

We're almost there, Aman.
Ow, ow, ow!

-Owww!
-Ahhh!

Why don't I help
push Dad for a bit?

Yeah, come on, Mom.

[Dad]
Hello? Hi!

Hi, I'm Eva.



I mean we're Eva.

That's Eva.

We called ahead and
we're having a baby.

I can't breathe.

Mrs. and Mr. Jain.

Follow me.

It's going
to be alright.

I've got you in a room
just over here.

Keep breathing.
You're doing great.

Hey, why don't
you two

wait in the
waiting room

while we get
your parents set up?

We'll come get you
in a... second.

Ooh. Ah.

Everything will be
okay, Dana.

Are you sure?

Yeah.

Seester promise.

Come on.

Are you still nervous?

Why don't we think
about something else,

get our minds off
of this for a while?

What else should we
think about?

Um...

Why don't you
tell me

how dinosaurs
have their babies?

Really?

Uh huh.

Well, for one thing,

dinosaurs didn't have
live babies like people do.

They had their babies
in eggs.

I knew that.

But did you know
that each dino

laid their eggs
a little differently?

Really? Why?

Well, there's a lot
of theories.

Sounds like a dino
experiment to me.

Dino Experiment ABC.

I prefer to use numbers.

Okay, um...

Dino Experiment 626.

I've used that
number already.

Alright.

Dino Experiment 1000:

"How do different dinosaurs
lay their eggs?"

"How do different dinosaurs
lay their eggs?"
Test number one,

Test number one,

the Brachiosaurus.

[grunts]

[grunts]

[Brachiosaurus grunts]

[grunts]

Ouch.

What was that about?

Paleontologists have discovered
fossilized Brachiosaurus eggs

in long lines
like this.

Their theory
is that Brachiosaurs

would have laid their eggs
while they were walking.

They couldn't think
of a better way

to get their eggs
to the ground?

-Well, it's better than...
-[crunch]

...that.

Brachiosaurus are some
of the largest creatures

that ever existed.

They're way
too huge to--

See where
they're stepping?

Correct.
They also couldn't

sit on their eggs
like chickens,

so laying their eggs
this way

gave the baby
Brachiosaurus

their best chance
at survival.

[squawking & snarling]

[squawking & snarling]

Something tells me

we're going to have
to survive that next.

You're right.

Baby Brachiosaurus
would make a nice snack

Baby Brachiosaurus
would make a nice snack
for a hungry Troodon.

for a hungry Troodon.

Lucky for us our dino-parents
are still close by.

What do you mean, "no"?

They're not going to
turn around and help us?

So we're on our own?

Not exactly.

Mama Brachiosaurus!

Come back here!

Come back here!
There's a Troodon
trying to eat us.

There's a Troodon
trying to eat us.

There's a Troodon
trying to eat us.
Come back!

Come back!

She's really not
coming back, is she?

Nope.

[dinosaur squawks
& snarls]

[squawking]

Dana, what are we
going to do?

We're not as massive
as our parents.

Don't worry, Saara.

Everything is going
to be okay.

Seester promise.

But how am I going
to defend myself?

You don't have to
defend yourself.

You don't have to
defend yourself.

Thanks, seester!

But look...
There's two more Troodon!

[both squawking]

There might be
two of them,

but there's
way more of us.

[babies squawking]

[both squawking]

Come on, Seester!

Roar!

[Saara]
Roar!

[dinosaurs all squawking]

[gasps] We did it!

[quietly] Um...

I mean, "We did it."

Yep. Paleontologists believe
Brachiosaurus babies

may have formed
little mini herds

so they could help
defend each other.

Safety in numbers.

I like it. [laughs]

Kind of like
how we seesters

always look out
for each other.

Exactly.

-[knocking]
-[both gasp]

Girls, we're ready for you.
Come on in.

[breathing deeply]

Look who I found.

Hey, there's my girls.

-Mom!
-How are you feeling?

Oh, like I'm having the worst
stomach ache of all time.

But it'll all be
worth it if I get to

have another kid
like you two.

-Oh!
-Another contraction?

[breathing heavily]

What's a contraction?

A contraction

is when Mom's muscles

are starting to
squeeze the baby out.

Oh, sorry.

-[sighs]
-It's fine, honey.

The feeling will
come back eventually.

Oh, there's
my baby girl.

-How are you feeling?
-Oh, it hurts, Mom.

Oh, I know it does,
sweetheart.

Aman, why don't you
take the girls

to the waiting room,
let everyone get some air?

-Actually, I was going to--
-Don't worry, Aman.

I've got everything
under control.

Sure. Sure.

Come on, girls. I'll just be
outside for a bit, hon.

When's the last time
the doctor was here?

-An hour.
-An hour?!

Well, that's too long.
I'll go talk to him.

Good to have
your grandma here.

[Dana]
You know,

Troodon had
a different way

of laying
their eggs too.

You mean the dinosaur that
just tried to eat us?

Yep. Troodon babies

would never be
able to hatch

if they didn't
get help from this

if they didn't
get help from this
very important
family member.

very important
family member.

very important
family member.
Who was it?

Who was it?

Oh.

Why is it so dark?

Oh, and hot?

Like chickens,
some dino babies

needed one of their parents
to sit on their egg

so they could stay warm
and keep growing inside.

But I thought
you said dinosaurs

were too big to sit
on their eggs.

Some dinosaurs,
like the Brachiosaurus,

were too big,

but the Troodon
were the perfect size.

Wait,

so who's sitting
on us?

Yeah, who was it?

Yeah, who was it?
Let's find out.

Let's find out.

[both grunting]

[Saara]
Dad?

There's my girls.

[Saara]
Dad?

Me?

[Dana]
Yep!

Paleontologists found
fossilized male Troodon bones

sitting on
a nest of eggs.

Their theory is that
Troodon dads

would have looked after
the eggs and babies

until they were ready
to take care of themselves.

They needed
their dads, huh?

-[Saara giggles]
-Absolutely.

Especially with so many
predators around.

Predators?

Unlike baby
Brachiosaurus,

who form little mini herds
to protect themselves,

it was up to the
Troodon dad alone

to protect his babies.

[Saara]
Don't worry, Dad.

Look at those claws.

No ones going to
get you.

No ones going to
get you.
[dinosaur roars]

[dinosaur roars]

Okay, maybe that one.

Well, I'd happily
do anything

to protect
the two of you.

to protect
the two of you.
Except it's not just
the two of us.

Except it's not just
the two of us.

What do you mean
not just the two of you?

The nest paleontologists found
the fossilized Troodon bones on

had over 30
eggs in it.

[Saara & Dad]
Thirty?!

In prehistoric times,
the more babies you had,

the better chance
you'd have

that some of them
would survive.

Huh. Dino times
were rough.

I know. Especially
for the dino parents.

Yeah, I see you.
Hello. Hello, you--

-Dana, that one's getting away!
-Oh! On it!

And Saara, help that
little guy out of its shell.

What?

That one!
Needs help! Shell!

[Saara]
I can't hear you!

I said...

[dinosaur roars]

Oh, that...
that can't be good.

Dad, what do we do?

How should I know?
You're the dino expert.

Yeah, but you're
the... dad.

You're right.

And dads take care
of the kids.

Okay, everyone get down.

Okay.

Now what?

I haven't thought
that far ahead yet.

Just remember, Dad:
you have huge claws.

Yes, I do!

[roars]

It's got bigger claws.

[Dana]
That's the Spinosaurus.

It's the largest
meat-eating dinosaur

ever discovered.

[whimpers]
It's getting closer!

Okay, listen.

I know you're scared.

So am I.

But we're in this
together, right?

[all squeaking]

Now, that thing might be
huge and scary.

It's got long claws and
a mouth full of sharp teeth.

[roars]

And it's got
a super-loud roar.

But you know one thing
it doesn't have?

A dad who loves them.

Now, run!

Go! Go!

Hey!

Over here!

Over here!
"Chase me! Chase me!"

"Chase me! Chase me!"

Smart thinking, Dad.

I figured
that Spino guy

couldn't chase after
all of us.

And you were right.

Part of the reason dinosaurs
had so many babies

was to guarantee at least
some of them would survive.

Congratulations,

you're officially our
number-one Troodon dad.

I think there's
one more baby

that might need some
Troodon dad attention.

[sighs]

Looks like your dad's
got it now.

Um, we could use
your help, Grandma.

To help with the
dino experiment!

Right, Dana?

[Dana]
Right.

The Maiasaura has
a different way

of laying
their eggs too.

I'm not really interested
in a dino story, Dana.

Oh, I think you're
going to like this one.

[breathless] What... was...

that... about?

What was what about?

All this dirt.

I cracked out
of my egg,

and then I had to crawl up
through all of this.

and then I had to crawl up
through all of this.
Oh! Remember
how I said

Oh! Remember
how I said

Troodon sat on their eggs
so their eggs

could stay warm and
keep growing inside?

[spits]

Yes.

[Dana]
Maiasaura couldn't.

They were too big.

So instead, they covered
their eggs in dirt

to keep them warm.

[dinosaur snarls]

The Spinosaurus is back!

Looks like we're going to
have to start running again.

Oh. Waaa!

What happened?

Fossils of baby Maiasaura
show paleontologists

that when they hatched
out of their eggs,

their legs weren't
fully working.

What?!

So we can't run?

Nope.

-So we're doomed.
-Sounds like it.

Think it through, Saara.

Well, if the parents
were too big

to sit on their eggs,

then does that mean
they just left them

to fend for themselves
like Brachiosaurus did?

No... but you're
getting warmer.

Oh, so their dads take care
of them, like Troodon.

Warmer.

Well, if the parents
didn't leave

Well, if the parents
didn't leave
and the dads did
look after them,

and the dads did
look after them,

who else did?
The moms?

So warm, you're hot.

The name "Maiasaura"

even means
"good mother reptile".

So if the moms
and dads

did look after them,

who else is there?

[roars]

[Saara]
Looks like Mom and Dad are here.

Finally!

[Spinosaurus roars]

But the Spinosaurus
isn't stopping!

Nope. The Spinosaurus

could easily take on
two adult Maiasaura.

[Grandma]
What about three?

[Grandma]
What about three?
[gasps] Grandma?

[gasps] Grandma?

More like
Grandma Maiasaura.

[laughs]

Maiasaura didn't have
many defenses,

so instead they lived
in massive herds,

which meant that moms
and dads and grandpas

and grandmas

worked together
to keep their babies

safe and protected.

In fact, paleontologists
think their herds

In fact, paleontologists
think their herds
might have had thousands
of Maiasaura in them.

might have had thousands
of Maiasaura in them.

Thousands?

Uh huh.

[Grandma]
Well...

how about we go deal with
that pesky Spinosaurus?

[roars]

[Grandma]
You want to roar?

I'll give you a roar.

Roar!

-Yay, Grandma Maiasaura!
-[laughs] Good job, Grandma!

[Grandma laughs]

[chuckles]

I like Maiasaura.

So do I.

Me too.

[Grandma]
Oh.

I'm going to go see
if your mom and dad

need a little Grandma
Maiasaura support. [chuckles]

[door clicks & squeaks]

How are you two
holding up?

Good.

Would you like me
to help?

Yes. Please.

You're both
doing so well.

Oh, here comes
another one!

Deep breath.

Wakey, wakey.

Do you want to come meet the
newest member of our family?

[whispering] I'll check back
in a few minutes.

[Mom, quietly]
Hi, girls. There's someone here

who'd like to say
hello to you.

-Hello.
-Hi, baby.

I'm your big
seester Saara.

And I'm your...

big seester too.

[family chuckles]

They're going to
look out for you.

Yes, we are.

So am I.

Me too.

[Dana]
Seester promise.

I think Dexter
likes that.

Dexter?

Wait, we have a...

-...brother?
-Brother!

[Dana]
Aww.

-Dexy, you're so cute.
-We love you, baby.
