King and Crystal Play Red Rock/Nick of Time
dinosaur train

King and Crystal Cryolophosaurus are back together in their on-again, off-again rock'n'roll relationship. The Conductor shows up to extend an offer to play the Red Rock Ampitheater in Laramidia (the Cretaceous mini-continent that is now the Rocky Mountains). Our Pteranodon Family is visiting King and Crystal in Jurassic Antarctica when they get the big news. Crystal is all for it - this concert is the big time! But King is hesitant, worried about performing because of stage fright. It takes emotional support from the Pteranodon kids to get King to perform, plus they help him get Crystal an anniversary gift. In the end, King and Crystal rock the Red Rocks and the festival crowd with their new hit song, "Red Rockin' the Cretaceous." / When Dad's good friend from their teenage years -- a pterosaur called Nyctosaurus -- comes for a long overdue visit, he's fun at first. Being a professional flyer, Nick thinks about flying 24/7, and teaches the kids exciting new flying and diving techniques for a couple of days. The kids need a break and end up showing Nick what they like to play - other activities besides flying. Nick appreciates that and invites the family to his upcoming big flying race!
