* Despite her [[AdaptionalWimp lack of badassery]] in the movie, Sarah at least gets a few awesome moments of her own. Those moments include surviving the "Stegosaurus" attack, having a raptor fall onto another raptor to [[SetAMookToKillAMook provoke a fight between them while she escapes]], and most notably being the one to tranquilize the T-Rex in a nick of time, thus saving the animal's life along with more human lives in San Diego!

** The ''Triceratops'' charging down the tent that Ludlow and his men were in warrants a mention. Especially since the previous movie portrayed its ''Triceratops'' as ill. To see one in action in the Jurassic Park films for the first time shows us the awesomeness of the elephant-sized ceratopsian.

* The final moments of TheClimax. Before he was killed by the baby rex, Ludlow gave an order to InGen to send a helicopter with mercenaries armed to gun down the adult rex from above, thus necessitating Ian and Sarah to pull off their plan to safely trap the rex inside the cargo hold more quickly. The two return to the deck of the boat as the authorities are arriving and the helicopter (seen earlier in the background) is on the approach. Ian hurries to control panel operating the cargo hold doors and slams his hand down on the closing button. Sarah, carrying a tranquillizer rifle, loads a dart in and takes careful aim at the rex just as the helicopter flies in above her. Slowly, as the scene's orchestral score rises to its height, the helicopter hovers into position, allowing the mercenary sitting by the portside door to have a clear shot through the closing doors at the rex. In the next second, practically the length of a single human heartbeat, Sarah pulls the trigger first and lands the dart before the mercenary can fire, ''saving the rex''. Never has the firing of a tranquillizer dart looked so awesome.

** Tembo shoots a ''Tyrannosaurus'' with a tranquilizer dart. The hulking monstrosity recoils in pain, roars at him and begins charging at him. Tembo, ''entirely undeterred'', begins loading another dart into the rifle. Calmly staring down a very pissed-off adult ''T. rex'' takes a very special kind of man.
