Our interpretation.

Spoilers for Jurassic Park IIIShow the scene

On the flight to Isla Sorna, Grant dreams that a Velociraptor is sitting beside him and addressing him by name. He wakes to Billy calling to him. The one-word page credits the raptor in Grant’s dream, rather than treating the voice as a talking animal encountered on the expedition.
