History[]
Yasmina is a multi-medal world track and field champion whose corporate sponsor was Jurassic World. However, due to constant training, she has not had time to have fun or make real friends, as her training regimen has led her to lead a disciplined and solitary life.
Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous[]
Season 1[]
In the winter of 2015, Yaz was invited to participate in the Camp Cretaceous.[2]
Yaz arrived on Isla Nublar at Ferry Landing along with the other campers, and is greeted by Dave and Roxie. They are then taken to Camp Cretaceous, only stopping briefly when the councilors attempt to retrieve an escaped Compsognathus. Once at camp, Brooklynn tries to interview her as an athlete but Yaz just looks away, saying that she doesn't like being in front of the cameras. That afternoon, all the campers, including Yasmina, have the opportunity to zipline over the herd of dinosaurs.[2]
On the first day at camp, Yaz and the rest visit the Genetics Lab (after Roxie and Dave excluded Darius and Kenji, as punishment for entering the Raptor Paddock). Yasmina is present at Bumpy's birth, however she and the rest of the group are abruptly expelled by Dr. Wu in retaliation for Brooklynn's invasion of his office and return to camp.[3]
That night, Yaz is among the group listening to Darius's campfire stories, although she is drawing with her notebook before the rain forces them inside. Sammy tries to connect with Yasmina to become friends, but Yaz decides to walk away rather than interact with her. The next morning, campers are taken to Gyrosphere Valley to ride the Gyrospheres along with the herd of dinosaurs that park staff will lead to pastures new. Yasmina is paired with Sammy in her gyrosphere, much to her dismay. Initially, Yaz continues to resist Sammy's attempts to get closer, even as they travel together. However, the counselors interrupted the activity due to the approaching storm and went out to warn the other employees while the group remained in their Gyrospheres. Initially planning to stay put, Yaz and Sammy end up trying to help the others bring a Sinoceratops back to the herd.[4]
However, the group accidentally causes the herd to stampede, and Yaz and Sammy are separated from the others after accidentally catching their sphere. Thinking quickly, the girls manage to create a ramp by which they can quickly exit the enclosed area, quickly reuniting with Ben and Kenji soon after. Discovering that Brooklynn and Darius are trapped in a sinkhole, the group tries to get them out, but they only succeed with the help of the Sinoceratops. Later that night, as the group prepares for bed, Yasmina apologizes to Sammy for her earlier behavior and reveals her secret hobby of drawing sketches of dinosaurs in her notebook and becoming friends.[4]
Jurassic World Incident[]
The next morning, the campers were left alone at camp by their counselors to attempt to contact Claire Dearing about the recent incidents. While the campers wait, Brooklynn confronts the group and accuses Sammy of stealing her phone, but Yaz steps in to defend her. The group is distracted by the sound of an approaching dinosaur and decide to head to the observation tower to see where the roar is coming from. The campers successfully enter the tower and climb it, apparently relieved to see that the noise is just a Brachiosaurus.[5]
At that moment, two employees emerge from the jungle who alert them, but the children do not hear them from above. But they just watch in horror as the Indominus rex kills the two men. When the hybrid attacks the tower, the group tries to use the zip line to escape, although the emergency brake activates, leaving them stranded in the middle. Darius grabs onto Yaz to create enough momentum to force the other campers along the zipline, just as the Indominus breaks the tower and they fall to the ground. They wake up after being briefly disoriented and run towards the camp, only to see it destroyed. Yaz finds a radio in the rubble, but after a first attempt at communication, she realizes that they are alone. After some deliberation, the group decides to head towards the main area of the park to find help.[5]
The group continues walking alongside Bumpy, with the new goal of going to the Genetics Lab to seek shelter, using a van they discovered to get there. However, they are soon ambushed again by the Indominus, forcing the group to escape in the van, getting lost near the laboratory. When the group enters inside, they run into scientist Eddie, who quickly abandons them and attempts to escape using his truck. Yaz chases after him, but Bumpy trips her while trying to catch up to him but the Indominus suddenly appears, attacks and quickly kills Eddie. The hybrid stalks the group as they try to get to the truck. As they escape, Yaz takes over driving the truck, but is distracted by evidence of Sammy's betrayal when she sees that he had actually stolen Brooklynn's phone, causing the truck to crash into a rock.[6]
After the group recovers, Yaz storms out because she defended Sammy when he was lying to her the whole time. But she doesn't accept Sammy's apology when she confessed to being a spy for Mantah Corp, and before the group can decide what to do, they witness Masrani's helicopter chasing the Indominus, before it breaks into the aviary. The Pteranodons escape, crash the helicopter and chase the group. The children run towards the Kayak River and decide to paddle to the main park. As they row towards the underground cave, Yaz argues with Ben about Bumpy, but they are interrupted by Parasaurolophus, who became agitated by Bumpy's screams before abruptly fleeing. The group is then sucked into a side tunnel by a strong current, which expels them into the Mosasaurus lagoon. The Mosasaurus begins to surround them, even as the children quickly paddle to safety. Realizing that the Mosasaurus will catch up with Darius and Sammy, Yaz navigates to a central platform and uses an oar to distract her from them. She narrowly escapes with Kenji helping her escape using the food chain, but not before the tablet she had on her back falls into the water losing the signal with Dave and Roxie. When Yaz narrowly escapes the dinosaur, she lands on the stands but sprains his ankle. Later, Yaz again rejects Sammy's attempts to apologize.[7]
When the group hears the sirens, they try to get to the evacuation ferry that leaves in two hours and therefore decide to use the monorail to get there. As they approach the monorail, they are intercepted by Toro, who chases them. Yaz narrowly avoids being attacked by the Carnotaurus, while Darius rescues her from the stairs and helps her to safety. Yaz celebrates with the group because they think they are going home, however, her joy is cut short when the Pteranodons proceed to attack the monorail. Yaz helps the group try to turn off the lights to avoid them, and then they use the flashlights to distract Ben's Pteranodons and divert the monorail to prevent it from crashing. But then, he sees Ben fall off the monorail, but I can't help with the others.[8]
When Ben fell off the monorail, Yaz laments, seeing the monorail returning, she and the rest of the group jump off the monorail and land in the jungle. Yaz is injured from the fall and is unable to move any further without help, causing the group to attempt to use the maintenance tunnels to reach the ferry in time. Finding a dinosaur prod in the tunnels, they use it as a staff for Yaz. The group runs into some obstacles and a group of Compies. While in a brief fight against the Compies, the campers begin to argue with Yaz and eventually begin to blame Sammy for getting the campers into the mess they have to get into, but Brooklynn defends her and tells Yaz that I forgot just before Tonto ambushes them again. The group manages to evade it for a short time, until they reach a sealed part of the tunnel that was previously the exit. They decide to open the boxes and try to scare away the Carnotaurus.[9]
Yaz uses her dinosaur prod to light a fuse in a box in an attempt to light up compressed air tanks. The dinosaur attacks the box, sending the tanks flying everywhere and starting fires. When Yaz tripped, Sammy helped her up with Yaz thanking her and possibly forgiving her. As the group evades each attack, Darius causes an explosion, eventually injuring the Carnotaurus and opening the tunnel, allowing the group to exit. When they arrive at the ferry landing, they find that the evacuation has already taken place, but then decide to stay together to wait for their rescue.[9]
Season 2[]
Yasmina is partly carried by Brooklynn and Sammy due to her injury, fleeing the dinosaurs' pursuit. Eventually, everyone arrives at Main Street in search of food and communication, and Yasmina takes the first watch that night. She notices that Darius is having a nightmare and wakes him up, then suggests he do something fun to clear his mind, such as push-ups. Darius prefers to read license plates, and in doing so realizes that there is probably a camouflaged distress beacon somewhere on Main Street. She helps monitor Rexy, the T. rex, as Darius and Kenji enter her lair to reach the beacon, and then flees with everyone else after Darius activates the beacon.[10]
Still injured, Yaz is left behind at their new base to rest under the care of Kenji, which she at first detests. Disgusted by Kenji's laziness, Yaz continues to push her limits by trying to sift through the rubble, using a makeshift crutch. This forces Kenji to come after her and attempt to stop her, but she rattles off her athletic medals as a way of conveying her refusal to give up under any circumstance. Not having it, Kenji takes her crutch, but still she won't relent, and ends up hurting herself even further. Kenji then carries her back, and during the process makes her realize her own limitations. She then tries to get away from Kenji, but collapses and cries. He comforts her, assuring her that sometimes one must rely on others, then continues carrying her back to camp, now reconciled. When the others return, she draws a schematic of a tree house for their new base.[11]
With her ankle healing, Yasmina is now ready to travel with Brooklynn and Sammy to investigate the strange frozen flowers Brooklynn had discovered. During their search, Yasmina talks to Sammy about high school and to Brooklynn about a show they all like, until they finally arrive at the genetics lab. There, they search for clues until a group of Baryonyx arrive, forcing them to flee back to camp. Yasmina helps Darius draw dinosaurs in his notebook, until everyone notices a campfire in the distance.[12]

Yaz relaxing in the sun at Mitch and Tiffs camp.
Yaz runs towards the fire with everyone else and Hap, Mitch and Tiff save him from a Ceratosaurus that tried to eat them along the way. At their camp, Yaz delights in everyone else and gets angry at Brooklynn when she seriously offended Darius, after trying to explain to them about Hap's suspicions, and instead goes with Mitch and Tiff to go dinosaur watching. However, something goes wrong at the camp and when Yaz returns, she finds that Hap, Brooklynn, and Kenji are gone.[13]
Yaz becomes suspicious of Mitch and Tiff, and decides to distract them while Darius snoops, but Yaz ends up captured by Tiff and used as a hostage to force Darius to reveal the location of the watering hole. Finally, Darius summons a Stegosaurus that charges them all and scatters them. In the chaos, Darius gives her a piece of paper and makes her run; Yaz is the only one who escapes. He then encounters Brooklynn, Kenji, warning them that Mitch and Tiff will kill the dinosaurs at the watering hole. But remembering the paper Darius gave him it turns out to be a map, marking Main Street where he will take them.[14]
When Yaz notices an Ankylosaurus approaching, she gets scared but when she notices that it is Bumpy now older and Ben in particular, she looks at him with her mouth open and hugs him, happy that he is alive. After learning of Darius' plan, Yaz and the others enter the tunnels to try to reach Main Street in time to help Darius and Sammy, but end up blocked by a door. Yaz accompanies everyone deeper into the structure until they find a control center, but she is unable to help in any meaningful way. Kenji manages to restore the power and eventually everyone figures out how to reactivate the hologram of a T. rex, distracting Rexy long enough for Sammy and Darius to escape.[1]
Darius sends Yasmina with Ben to scare the dinosaurs away from the watering hole, so he takes a car and sets off, blasting music and flashing lights to scare the dinosaurs and cause a stampede. However, after taking them out, and seeing that they are returning for Rexy, her car won't start, leaving her stranded. Ben and Sammy save her, riding Bumpy and finally managing to escape from Rex and then regroup with everyone else at the docks. They have a big group hug, which is too much for Yaz, but she endures it with good humor.[15]
Special[]
"Hidden Adventure"[]
Season 3[]
The season begins with Yasmina and the other campers on the makeshift raft they created in an attempt to escape the island, and when they are swept away by a wave, she returns to camp with the others. The campers discuss their previous failed escape plans, including Yaz's plan to try to fly a helicopter (which failed due to none of them knowing how to fly a helicopter). When Kenji suggests they go to Lookout Point to find hang gliders, she goes with him too. Yaz shares a gondola cabin with Brooklynn on the way up, something that both girls are very upset about. They fight over which of them had a more difficult childhood, and somehow come to the conclusion that both of their childhoods were exploited by numbers, whether it be internet followers or backgrounds. When they reach the top, Yaz leaves Brooklynn to go find a rock to break the lock holding the hang gliders, and instead finds a nest of Dimorphodon eggs. The Dimorphodons attack and Yaz and Brooklynn escape on one of the hang gliders. The campers find Tiff and Mitch's yacht, and Yaz celebrates with them.[16]

What eight years of diving lessons looks like
Yaz joins the other campers in swimming to the yacht. Join a yacht party and go diving with Ben. Bumpy shows his affection for her, much to Sammy's dismay. When the yacht has a hole, she joins her friends in trying to find supplies to plug the hole. When a pair of Ouranosaurus attack, she runs to a shipping container and then saves Kenji by throwing a crowbar at one of the dinosaurs. He rejoins the group and saves Sammy, and then continues to the ship before scaring away the dinosaurs with fireworks. She reveals to Sammy that Bumpy likes her because she feeds him the snacks she carries with her.[17]
Yaz goes with the other campers to Kenji's father's penthouse, briefly enjoying some snacks and water before the Monolophosaurus attack. She escapes down the hallway with Sammy and Ben, then they enter through the vents. The group gets gas from the limos and sealant for the hole in the boat, before setting off in one, picking up Darius, Brooklynn, and Kenji on the way back.[18]
Yaz helps Darius place the food tray on the ship. While everyone is waiting for it to set, a Compsognathus steals a compass from the campers. Yaz, Darius and Kenji run after him and find themselves in front of the old Visitor Center. Yaz comments that Jurassic Park is cursed and that John Hammond died there after breaking his ankle and being eaten by the Compies (Darius corrects her by saying that Hammond died of natural causes and asks where she heard that, and she replies, "I read it in somewhere"). She also says she likes reading about theme park deaths. Once inside the center, she climbs the scaffolding to retrieve the compass and successfully retrieves it before Velociraptor Blue enters the center. The three campers flee from the raptor and accidentally trap him under a car. At first she wants to leave her alone, but after Darius says that the Compies will eat her, she helps free her. Darius initially calms her down, but Kenji provokes her by throwing a coin at her, prompting Yasmina, Darius, and Kenji to run away.[19]
Yaz is running when Darius leaves Kenji packing. When he returns, Ben is gone and Kenji is struggling to do anything. Yaz gets Kenji to join her in searching for Ben and finds him in a field with Bumpy. She talks to him on the way back to camp, and when he tells her that it's unlikely any of the campers will remain friends after leaving the island, she begins to worry even though Kenji tells her that they're all going to be friends. They will keep in touch. Back at camp, they meet up with Darius, Sammy, and Brooklynn, who warn them about the Scorpios rex. Yaz is sent to prepare the boat for departure, but sees that the swell is too high to set sail and returns to warn the group. Once she warns them, they decide to fortify the camp to prepare for the storm. As Yaz builds the wall, she argues with Sammy and tells her that they have nothing in common and will not remain friends. Sammy tries to tell him that they will remain that way, but Yaz tells him that once the group can survive and return to the mainland, Sammy will return to Texas and reluctantly tells him that they are not best friends and then seriously tells him that they never were. , presumably. remembering her bitterness towards Sammy from after she revealed the truth to when they are attacked by Toro, to which a saddened Sammy walked away from Yaz starting to feel bad for having to do this. After the argument, the Scorpios rex roars in the distance, causing all the campers to hide in the treehouse. When the S. rex charges the camp, it falls out of the treehouse and hides until it leaves. After he's gone, he turns around to see Sammy collapsed from the Scorpios' spikes and runs to help her.[20]
“The Long Run”[]
Yaz runs quickly through the jungle, even when she encounters an overflowing river, which makes her try to jump over it, even when she fails and falls, being carried away by the current. Yaz barely makes it to shore again by grabbing a vine, as she remembers her and Sammy's first meeting. This motivates her as she reaches a sign and heads towards where she thinks the lab is. He finds the Raptor Paddock and realizes it is near the lab. When he arrives and sees that the door is blocked by a log he tries to get it out, just as he briefly runs into the Scorpios but hides. He has another flashback to his previous conversation with Sammy, which gives him the motivation and inner strength to open the door. Once in the laboratory, she searches for the antidote while becoming frustrated and almost giving up, but finds a first aid kit containing red vials of the antidote for the E750 poison.[21]
When she leaves the laboratory with the antidote, she encounters the Scorpios once again, while feeding on prey, and it roars in agitation upon seeing her. Yaz drops the antidote, bends down to pick it up, as she runs off, with the Scorpios chasing her. While running, he encounters the river again, this time jumping on the first attempt, but hurting his ankle again. She has another flashback to the first time, when she showed her drawings to Sammy and how she never gives up and she decides that she won't either. When the Scorpios corner her, Yaz shouts defiance and urges her to eat her, before the explosion caused by Darius and Ben distracts him. On the final leg back from camp, her ankle injury from season one reappears, causing her to collapse along the way. She thinks about all the times Sammy has been kind to her, motivating her to keep going. He arrives at the camp just as Sammy is getting worse from the poison and gives him the antidote. Yaz takes Sammy's hand and apologizes for what she said earlier, saying that they will always be friends no matter how hard it is. When it appears that Sammy has died, the others become sad and Yasmina cries. However, Sammy wakes up Yaz smiles and starts crying with joy.[21]
Yaz helps Sammy up after the poison, supporting her while she can't stand up. The campers begin heading to the ship when the storm breaks, but lose Ben when he searches for Bumpy, then Darius when he tries to find him. The rest of the group continues, Yaz is unusually encouraging and kind, confusing the rest of the group. Brooklynn and Kenji finally take her aside, worried about how nice she's being. She explains that she wants Sammy to feel relieved, and Sammy interrupts to say that it makes her feel worse. Before the group can speak more, a herd of Parasaurolophus lux chased by the Scorpios stampedes right where they are talking and hides behind a log. Yaz, although continuing to protect her, forces Sammy to get up and run by calling her lazy and reverts to her old personality. The group arrives at the ship at dawn but discovers that Ben and Darius have not returned. When they see the Scorpios, they cast off and steer the boat out to sea.<re name="Shock to the System">Camp Cretaceous: Season 3 – "A Shock to the System"</ref>
Yaz returns to the dock with the other campers on the boat, hoping that the hybrid is gone. The group fears that Darius and Ben may have died in the overturned limousine, but they find footprints in the mud, proving that they are alive. They follow footprints leading to the site of a Brachiosaurus stampede. They find a baby Brachiosaurus that was left behind, and Yaz joins Brooklynn and Sammy in petting it. Once reunited with the herd, they continue following the trail of footprints. They find Darius and Ben at the Visitor Center and agree on their plan to defeat both Scorpios rexes, but one of them attacks before they have the chance. They hide inside the center, and the second Scorpios and Blue join the fight. Once the center's roof collapses and kills both Scorpios, the campers set out for the ship. At the dock, Ben says his final goodbye to the campers and Yaz says she'll miss him. When he returns, she celebrates with the other campers. But they are interrupted by a helicopter.[22]
When the helicopters on the mission to collect samples of the Indominus rex order it to return to shore. Before Yaz, Brooklynn, and Darius can board the helicopter, Rexy attacks and forces him to leave. Yaz and the other two left behind flee from Rexy and are chased to Main Street, before the dinosaur is distracted. They watch the Mosasaurus eat a man trying to escape in a helicopter and then run to try to find their campmates. They watch Dr. Wu get out of his helicopter and begin walking towards his lab in search of his laptop. Brooklynn wants to find the laptop and destroy it to prevent the creation of more hybrid dinosaurs, but Yaz thinks they should let him have it and be rescued. Finally, she agrees to go with them to the laboratory and they arrive before Dr. Wu. They sneak into the lab through the vents and obtain the laptop, but are caught by Wu's bodyguards. Yaz and Darius grab the laptop and run per Brooklynn's request while she is being kidnapped.[23]
Yaz and Darius flee from Hawkes when they encounter Sammy, Ben and Kenji. They take the laptop to camp to eliminate the investigation. While being erased, Yaz takes a break to take a mental photo with Sammy and Darius. She finds out that while she was busy, Kenji took the laptop to trade for Brooklynn. The campers rush to find him and find him when he hands the laptop to Wu. When Ben attacks with Bumpy and his pack, Yaz runs with Sammy to get the laptop. The girls throw him to the ground and an Ankylosaurus destroys him. They flee with the other campers, narrowly avoiding the helicopter Hawkes is piloting. Back on the ship, Yaz sits with Sammy as they set sail for Costa Rica, unaware that there appears to be something on board the ship with them.[24]
Season 4[]
Yaz is happy they are coming home. She shows Sammy a drawing she made of the 6 of them on their ferry ride on the first day and gives it to Sammy, much to the latter's happiness. When the boat gets stuck in seaweed, Yaz decides not to go in the water due to a shark movie that scared her for life, so Darius opts to go in. Yaz, Sammy and Ben tie a rope to Darius. Despite being chased by the Mosasaurus and the rope breaking, Yaz, Sammy and Ben managed to recover Darius with Kenji's help. The six are then attacked by the Mosasaurus. Yaz tries to scare it away by hitting it with an oar, but the Mosasaurus continues to attack. The Mosasaurus eventually destroys the ship, leaving the campers stranded on a new island. The six enter a cave to find shelter for the night.[25]
After Ben sees something shiny, a reluctant Yaz and the others head out to find what it is. The group wanders into the desert as a sandstorm begins to form. While Brooklynn and Kenji are separated in the process, Yaz and the others are able to find them after the storm ends. Unfortunately, they are all disappointed to learn that the shiny thing is just a metal rectangle. Later at night, Yaz starts yelling around the fire and with the rest of the group to vent her frustrations. Later the group wakes up and notices a saber-toothed tiger in a bush, but they manage to escape. The next morning, Yaz and the others find an invisible wall which opens to reveal a metal hallway, much to their shock.[26]
At the other end of the hallway, the group finds themselves in a forest. After avoiding two T. rex, they encounter Dr. Mae Turner, who is studying how dinosaurs interact with each other. They head to her house, but their experiences lead them to distrust her. When Brooklynn suggests they go to the place Mae told them not to go, Yaz, who realizes that Kenji likes Brooklynn, suggests they go, but Brooklynn convinces him to go and so does Ben. While walking, Yaz keeps Ben distracted so Brooklynn and Kenji can be alone. They encounter a BRAD, a robot that kills the Compy that was aboard the ship because it is an "unrecognized life form" on the island. Mae stops BRAD before he finds Yaz, Brooklynn, Kenji and Ben. Later, when Mae leaves to monitor Big Eatie and her daughter Little Eatie, Darius and Sammy follow her, while Yaz stays with the others. Still wanting to give Brooklynn and Kenji time alone, he tries to push Ben away, but the attempt fails. Kenji, who knows what Yaz is doing. He takes Yaz to the kitchen and asks her to stop. Then, a BRAD enters Mae's cave, causing the four of them to hide. As BRAD finds Yaz and Ben and is about to kill them, Kenji saves them and destroys BRAD.[27]
Yaz dreams of finding her notebook outside. He opens it and sees a drawing of his mother, which makes him comment that he misses her. However, she is then chased by the Indominus rex, Toro, the Scorpios rex, and a Ceratosaurus. Yaz wakes up scared from her nightmare and Mae asks if she's okay, Yaz says she's okay. After Mae discovers that Mantah Corp is tampering with the food to make the dinosaurs more aggressive, everyone comes up with a plan to call the supply plane and get rid of the tampered food, so they can get off the island and stop Mantah Corp. Yaz and Darius activated the time box in the T-rex area. The group is then chased by Big Eatie, but the rex's roar causes Yaz to freeze in fear, but Kenji brings her back. The six are pursued by BRADS, but manage to escape into the cold, snowy biome, where they encounter the Kentrosaurus, Pierce. Despite wanting to take the plane, the group agrees to help get Pierce out. As they are attacked by a BRAD, a scared Yaz successfully throws it into the water. After saving Pierce, the 6 campers rush to the plane, but unfortunately they arrive too late. Darius and Ben return to Mae, while Yaz talks to the others about her nightmares and her desire to return home and to her mother, and Yaz is comforted by Sammy, Brooklynn, and Kenji.[28]
Darius tells Mae that everyone will help, with even a reluctant Yaz agreeing. To help Yaz, Sammy takes Yaz back to Mae's place to rest. Yaz tells Sammy she does not remember how to sleep, but Sammy convinces her to think about what she misses to help her sleep. Yaz says she misses food she likes and her mom, and then falls asleep. The two however, wake up when they hear a man and a BRAD come in Mae's place. They hide under the bed and go unseen. Sammy recognizes the guy and tells Yaz, as the guy takes Mae's journal containing her research. After regrouping, Sammy reveals that the man is Kash who blackmailed her family into sending her to Jurassic World. When Yaz and the others attempt to dissuade her from confronting him, an angry Sammy decides to do so anyway and runs off. Fortunately, Yaz stops Sammy from confronting him, and tells Sammy that they are here to protect her. Wile Kash turns the BRADs against Mae and orders them to kill her, Yaz and the others save Mae. When a pack of Velociraptors surround them, with one injuring Mae, Yaz and the others are saved by Sammy using one of the damaged BRADs to injure and scare off the raptors. The 6 take Mae somewhere where they won't be seen.[29]
Yaz tries to help the others get Kash's phone so they can try to call for help. After Big Eatie and Pierce are lured to a place by the BRADs and Mantah Corp drones are are forced to fight, the six campers come up with a plan to lure Kash away, stop the fight, and get the phone. However, when Yaz suffers a panic attack after hearing Big Eatie and Pierce roar at each other, Darius decides to go and get the phone by himself. Yaz, Ben and Sammy cause an explosion, which causes an alert to pop up on Kash's monitor, which lures Kash and his BRAD out and allows Darius to go inside the compound, but Darius ends up being caught by Kash.[30]
Yaz and the others wonder why Darius has not stopped to fight. Per Brookylnn's advise, Yaz and the other start destroying the drones with the hope of this stopping the fight, but Darius fortunately convinces Kash to stop the fight. After telling Mae, she advises them to use a platform to go to Med Bay. Despite being chased by a Spinosaurus and the Saber-toothed Tiger, Yaz and the others are inadvertently saved by the Spino killing the Smilodon, and then escape and head into the med bay. Despite reuniting with Darius, Darius ends up staying so he can act as a spy for the rest of the group.[31]
In order to communicate with Darius, Yaz and the group have Brooklynn reprogram a BRAD-X. Fortunately, the plan works and Yaz and the group are able to communicate with Darius.[32]
The five head to the Medbay to save the younger dinosaurs with Darius's assistance. Feeling awkward about Kenji telling her he likes her, Brooklynn goes with Yaz and the two find a Spinoceratops. Yaz asks her about Kenji, and Brooklynn tells her how she feels about him. After running into Kenji and Sammy, Yaz suggests that Brooklynn and Kenji take the Spinoceratops that she and Brooklynn found. After noticing that Sammy is being really affectionate to the Spinoceratops she found (which she names Angel), a guilty Sammy says Angel and the other Spino who is Angel's brother are here because of the samples she took back on Jurassic World. Yaz comforts her by saying that most of the blame should go to Mantah Corp, and that Sammy can help her by getting her out. While the 5 and the baby dinos are attacked by a Ceratosaurus, they escape and head outside.[33]
After Ben sees Kash inject a control chip in a Brachiosaurus he found, he tells Yaz and the others, and the five come up with a plan to trap Kash. Fortunately, the plan works and Kash is trapped. After Darius and Ben reunite with the group, Yaz and the others are happy. Yaz is amused when Ben names the Brachiosaurus Firecracker.[34]
While taking Rebel (Angel's brother whom Kenji and Brooklynn named) and Angel to the desert biome, Brooklynn tells Yaz and Sammy about her and Kenji, much to their (Sammy in particular) happiness. Brooklynn even thanks Yaz for pushing her. Unfortunately, the Spinosaurus chases them away. They go to the cold and snowy biome to drop off Angel and Rebel. While Yaz wants to leave. Sammy and Brooklynn don't want to at first. Yaz tried to pressure them to leaving which upsets them and they try to stop her, which leads to their snowmobile going into the ice cold water. Luckily, the three get out before it goes in. Brooklynn and Sammy voice their frustration to Yaz for not listening, and Yaz apologizes for her mistake. After some time, the three agree to head back, but are approached by what they believe to be Darius's BRAD-X who tells them that Pierce is in danger. They end up saving the Darius, Kenji, Ben, Mae and Pierce from a pack of Dilophosaurus by chasing them away with another snowmobile. When Kenji tells Brooklynn that he did not send the BRAD-X to them, Darius realizes that it is a trap, which angers Yaz. The six are approached by a group of BRAD-X's, Kash and the president of Mantah Corp. Yaz and the others are shocked to learn that the president is Kenji's dad.[35]
Season 5[]
Yaz, like her friends, doesn't feel sure she can trust Kenji's father. Seeing that Big Eatie misses his daughter, Little Eatie, they tell Kenji this, at the same time they learn that the dino fights will continue for the investors. Yaz then helps the rest convince Daniel not to force them to fight, with Ben they lure Little Eatie towards her mother, happily reuniting them. That night, Yaz meets Sammy in the hallway, deciding to have a sleepover together by meeting the others in the hallway.[36]
Yaz eats breakfast without thinking about worrying about anything, without noticing that Brooklynn and Darius are interested in Mr. Kon. Then, noticing that Kenji is preparing for a date with Brooklynn, he and Sammy help him prepare the hall, leaving him alone after finishing it. Later he returns to the lobby finding Brooklynn, Darius and Ben, who were investigating Daniel, discovering that Kenji is not there, but with his father and the investors.[37]
The next day, Yaz and the rest let Brooklynn try to talk to Kenji about what his father did, but he doesn't believe it. Then the group tries to help Mae, they follow her and Kash to a vault, Brooklynn and Ben sneak inside in a box, while the rest make a distraction so that later they come out, they discover that Mae gave them some radios capable of destroying the mind control chips. They returned to the observation panel, where Kenji was waiting for them. He tries to convince them that Daniel is trying to protect the dinosaurs, but they are not convinced. Even though this changed their friendship, they decide to go to prevent the dinosaurs from getting hurt, they head to the forest and begin to free the dinosaurs from mind control, Yaz and Sammy managed to free the Raptors just before Kash used them to kill Mr. Kon being eaten alive and the rest of the investors dead as well, although Lana Molina survived. Seeing everything ruined, Yaz is locked up with her friends by Kenji before leaving for Nublar, she glaring at him angrily.[38]
Locked in the nursery, the children found a way out to the drain, although it made them feel disgusting, they went in. Down in the sewers, Yaz with Ben, Sammy and Brooklynn talk about how Kenji could have left them locked up, and they begin to blame him for everything, although Brooklynn believes that her father is to blame. However, it is interrupted by a BRAD that was watching them approaching, causing the group to separate. Finding Sammy and Darius, they hear them screaming, they arrive where the island's power core is and are attacked by a Nothosaurus. They manage to avoid it thanks to the BRAD, and go up to the forest biome. Yaz wonders about the dinosaur and believes that Kenji put it down, causing everyone to argue, but Darius, who did not speak anything, tells them that it is not the time to blame Kenji, just as the island shakes from an earthquake, due to the core was damaged by the attack of Nothosaurus and BRAD.[39]
While Darius takes care of the nervous T-rex, Yaz goes with the rest to turn off the drones, at the same time that they turn on a drone that arrived in Nublar and destroyed by the Scorpios rex due to the signal they sent in season 2. When they discover through the drone that Daniel will make the control chips to sell to Biosyn, they see that Brooklynn exploded with anger and sadness when she saw Kenji happy with his father and Yaz comforts her, just when another earthquake sounds and she hides under the furniture. Later, they helped Big Eatie lift her from a fallen tree, using the snowmobile, then left Brooklynn alone with Darius.[40]
The next day, Sammy and Yaz enter a BRAD workshop to find the chips and destroy them. While there, the girls destroy a BRAD under repair, until it is disabled like the others thanks to Brooklynn. Then they go to a mountain where they make a bonfire and burn the chips, while the others arrive and start making marshmallows.[41]
Yasmina drinks chocolate with her friends, while they think about what to do for the dinosaurs on the island, and decide to create a watering hole for all the animals. Yaz accompanies Ben to take charge of taking the herbivorous dinosaurs. They escort the Spinoceratops hybrids Rebel and Angel to the forest biome, and meet up with Pierce, then find Firecracker, and take them to the watering hole with berries. As they walk, Yaz tells Ben that she has feelings for Sammy. They continue walking and sharing their feelings before noticing that Firecracker is gone and looking for her, finding her in the swamp, just before running into a pair of Dilophosaurus. They flee from carnivores, and evade their poison, escaping through the mangroves. They carefully lead the herbivores the rest of the way to the new watering hole already completed by Sammy. The group plays at the new watering hole, while Sammy and Yaz share a moment.[42]
The episode begins with Yasmina, running through the forest until she reaches the watering hole, jumping on Ben and laughing, mentioning that she likes to run for fun and not for the chase. Yasmina is finally ready to tell Sammy about her feelings, as she leaves the meat for the rexes, but is interrupted when they are eating. Brooklynn records footage of the group for posterity, as they recount their various adventures and personal growth. As the conversation turns to Kenji, Darius brings up the point that they need to be proactive for when Daniel returns to the island. The group heads back to the maintenance corridors as they come up with a plan, while Yaz walks away to talk to Sammy. However, the doors accidentally close, separating the two, when a sudden alarm sounds throughout the premises. They run out and see a warning error that a geothermal power malfunction has occurred. Realizing that the core has been compromised, the group runs around while trying to figure out how to fix the problem.[43]
The group heads to the core tunnels, as the group approaches they detect a noxious odor and determine that BRAD-X has been damaged in the fight with the Nothosaurus. They approach the core, and realize that the core was overheating because it was not aligned. Meanwhile, they hear noises and realize it's the Nothosaurus. The Nothosaurus lunges at the group, but collapses due to the noxious fumes. The children flee, realizing that if the gas pressure becomes too intense, the island will explode. The children quickly drag the Nothosaurus out of the area. Yasmina, Sammy and Ben are in charge of carrying the Nothosaurus up to the swamp, while Brooklynn and Darius try to seal the core back to its normal stability. Staring at the Nothosaurus watching over her, Yaz requests time in private to tell Sammy how she really feels about her. Just as she confesses, the Nothosaurus wakes up and starts attacking them, the trio barely manage to evade it in the elevator, giving them plenty of time when they reach the swamp. When a Dilophosaurus approaches, the Nothosaurus attacks it and eats it, giving the children time to run.[43]
Arriving somewhere safe, the kids take a breather while Sammy and Yaz catch up on their feelings. Sammy confesses that she also feels the same way about Yaz, and the two kiss, just as the rest of the group arrives and cheers for them. At that moment, they see the perimeter drone activate while they witness the arrival of Daniel Kon's people. The group is horrified to see how the animals are unloaded from the trucks, especially when they see Kenji helping them, at the same time that they saw that Bumpy was also captured.[43]
Yasmina, Sammy, Brooklynn and Darius are in charge of finding a USB of the chip files, while Ben goes to rescue his friend Bumpy. In the office, Yaz and Sammy stand guard and flirt with each other, while Darius and Brooklynn search the computer where the BRADS-X are. They go to the swamp biome to locate the BRADS and begin checking the path. They find nothing and continue on, while Hawkes and Godinez pursue them. The campers head to the arctic biome, but again they do not find it there, until finally in the desert biome. When they realized that they were being followed, the children woke up the Spinosaurus to evade them. They take advantage of this moment to flee and find the pendrive in the desert. However, they flee while the Spinosaurus chases them, and they realize that Hakwes managed to chip the dinosaur and is in control of it and they lose the drive. They manage to escape into the tunnels, and Darius destroys the gate circuit, while they regroup and make plans to meet up later. When Ben returned with Bumpy freed from mind control, Yaz and the rest are surprised to see that Kenji has returned.[44]
Yasmina stands still as she looks at Kenji very angry, with Brooklynn and Darius waiting for an explanation, Kenji then explains that he knows there is nothing magical he can say to make things right again, and that he is very sorry. What he did is because he was with ideas, thoughts and hopes that his father was a good man, but he finally realized that he was wrong, much to Yasmina's happiness and she forgives him. They make peace again and Yaz and Sammy present themselves to Kenji as a couple for his happiness. When they hear Daniel using Toro to open the floodgate, they run to the watering hole to try to make the dinosaurs flee. Yaz helps Sammy with the babies, while they try to calm them down they see Limbo coming and Yaz fights protecting Rebel, although the Baryonyx leaves due to the T-rex's roar. Then, she saves her girlfriend from a controlled Dimorphodon. She then takes down Hawkes with the help of Rebel, freeing the controlled Spinosaurus. However, when Daniel takes down Big Eatie with the newly controlled Spinosaurus, Yasmina is left with a horrified face.[45]
Yaz hides with her friends at the top of a tree, thinking about what to do, give the password to Daniel or leave the island, and Darius agrees with the latter. They run to the dock, but are ambushed by the controlled dinosaurs and Yaz splits up with Sammy and Ben. They hide in Godinez's warehouse, but are attacked by the Raptors, although they managed to get out, leaving the mercenary to be eaten. Before they could leave, they had collected sleeping gas, and created a plan, scaring Mr. Kon into believing that the core was about to explode, and releasing the gas to make it appear poisonous, rendering Big Eatie (who was thought dead) and Little Eatie unconscious. With the defeat of Mantah Corp, all the campers including Yaz along with Sammy sit, watching the dinosaurs at the watering hole now happily.[46]
At the dock they see that Roxie, Dave, Mae and Brandon came to rescue them, and Yaz ran hugging Roxie with Sammy. Finally Yasmina was able to happily reunite with her mother and showed her and Mr. Gutierrez that she and Sammy are a couple. At the end of the series, which takes place in 2018, Yaz is seen now with short, flowing hair, living with Sammy in Texas and attending colleges, mentioning that they have amazing sports programs and that she is learning how to bond.[46]

She was surprised to see Sammy and Ben visiting her, but at first she was hesitant to believe them that someone is hunting them and killed Brooklynn. This caused an argument between Yaz and Sammy, who had not spoken in a long time. Taking a moment with Ben, Yaz was proud for him when discover that he has a girlfriend. But this is interrupted when a Becklespinax appears on the island, undetected because the entire security system was disabled, and Yaz was willing to accompany her friends.[47]
When they are about to leave the island, the truck they were in was stopped by another Becklespinax that was blocking the road. Two corrupt Department of Prehistoric Wildlife agents fired darts into the truck's tires as the dinosaur attacked, forcing the vehicle off the bridge and into the water. Yaz, Sammy and Ben barely escaped drowning and managed to swim to shore.

However, the driver does not see his pursuers and gets back in so Sammy and Yaz can continue following him. Sammy apologizes to her girlfriend and they both admit that they are too stressed. The truck arrives at a facility checkpoint and is allowed in, while Sammy and Yaz sneak past.[49]

She can be very sensitive when it comes to trust and new friendships, finding difficulty to forgive Sammy for her actions. Yaz also isn't above showing grief as she did cry after Ben's supposed death. During her adventure to escape the Jurassic World incident alive along with her newfound friends, Yaz begins to develop a new sense of friendship and knows that she and her friends are on their own and that they will have to rely on each other to survive.
In season 2, Yaz is more friendly with the other campers, especially Sammy. She even hugs Ben after learning that he is alive.
In season 3, Yaz has become closer friends with the other campers, which is first evidenced when she is willing to do a give me five with Brooklynn as they escape a pack of Dimorphodon via a hang glider. While she tells Sammy that they won't be friends when they leave the island because they have nothing in common, she has a change of heart and realizes that Sammy is her true friend when she is trying to save Sammy, after the latter is poisoned by the Scorpios rex.
In season 4, Yaz develops PTSD due to her experiences with dinosaurs, which causes her to have nightmares and some breakdowns. She is shocked to learn that Kenji's dad is the president of Mantah Corp.
In season 5, Yaz among the other campers were angry at Kenji for his betrayal but did ended up forgiving him in the end after she had realized his mistakes.
Yaz is more insecure as well due to her love for Sammy. Furthermore, she was at first nervous about confessing her feelings to Sammy. Throughout the season, she tries to tell Sammy on separate occasions. However, due to circumstances that keep getting in her way, she finally told Sammy how she feels. She's willing to be affectionate with her and share passionate kisses with her. However, the two are willing to be less affectionate in front of Darius and Brooklynn so they won't feel bad.
By the end of the series it's shown the two are living together proving their love is so strong they stick together.
In Jurassic World: Chaos Theory, it's revealed that Yaz's experiences on the island left her with severe PTSD, causing her to react badly to dinosaurs making it to the mainland. However, due to years of immersion therapy on a dinosaur-free island in Wyoming, Yaz was able to overcome this, leading to her becoming greatly frustrated with how fragile Sammy kept treating Yaz as being.
Appearance[]
Yaz has brown eyes. She wears a warm gray and gray jacket (still remains fully zipped up just like Brooklynn), underneath a purple and gray tank top, with the right sleeve almost torn off. She has dark brown hair tied up in a long ponytail. In the first episode of Season 1, she wears gray jeans later been replaced by sport shorts that are dark gray, purple lines that shapes the letter "T" upside down and gray cuff (wears mostly during through the show). She also has white socks, gray and purple shoes.
In the fifth and final season in episode 12, Nublar Six, Yaz has taken off her jacket and finally reveals her tank top, which is purple and gray with a white outline.
In the episode "Safe Harbor" Yasmina wears a one-piece swimsuit that is purple with pink stripes under the arms on both sides. This is reminiscent of her shorts which also had pink banding on them, along with pink stripes on both sides, creating the letter "T" upside down.
In the series finale, Yaz is now shown with her hair down and cut short and wearing a cropped violetta sports shirt.
In Chaos Theory, Yaz is shown to have grown taller given the timeskip between 2018 and 2022. It’s unknown what her hair’s actual length is but could still be short. It is also shown that her hair also has grown bangs that no longer show the curl-like bang she had in Camp Cretaceous her hair is now black. She also has her hair pulled into a low bun at the back of her head and shows a different outfit than before.

Relationships[]
Sammy Gutierrez[]

Sammy and Yasmina's first kiss
In season 1, Yasmina was shy at first upon Sammy was the first one to befriend with her. In The Cattle Drive she mostly avoided trying to bond with Sammy but at the end of the episode she bonds with Sammy and even lets Sammy hug her. She quickly defends Sammy from Brooklynn who was angry at Sammy for stealing her phone. In Welcome to Jurassic World, it turned out Sammy was a spy. Yasmina was angry at her. It is implied that even through Yasmina was angry at her, she wasn't purely angry as she had a bit of regret for saying they'll never be best friends. She did forgive her at the end of the season during the fight with Toro and even before that, stopped her from jumping out of the train after Ben when the latter seemingly died.
In season 2, the two are shown to be close and constantly worrying for one another. Yaz wants Sammy to stay with her as she rests rather than Kenji. She later goes with Brooklynn only because Sammy is going. When Mitch and Tiff announce they're taking the campers home, Sammy quickly hugs Yaz, who smiles awkwardly. Sammy tackles Tiff to protect Yaz and later, Yaz is shown as relieved when Sammy is safe with Darius. Sammy quickly rushes back, alongside Ben and Bumpy, to save Yaz when her jeep isn't working and pulls her onto Bumpy, with the two warmly smiling at one another. Yaz is also seen hugging Sammy later in their group hug.
After spending six months together, Yasmina and Sammy have bonded so well, it is implied in season 3 the two have romantic feelings for each other. In Eye of the Storm, the only reason why Yaz told Sammy they're not best friends was because she loved Sammy and didn't want to get attached once they go their separate ways, but she has a change of heart once Sammy is poisoned by the Scorpios rex. She ran all the way across the island to get the antidote for her. Yaz assured her they would always be friends and cried tears of joy when Sammy survived. After saving Sammy's life, Yasmina changed her personality, as she was more gentle with everyone and protected Sammy all the way back to the boat. She later protected Sammy when the latter had Wu’s laptop and they were being chased by Hawkes.
In season 4, they are still best friends. Yaz went to save Sammy during the sandstorm and Sammy was the only one who knew Yaz was suffering nightmares and comforted her. The two even sleep on the same bed together and talk about what they miss at about home. Yaz protected Sammy when the latter went to confront Kash in rage. When Sammy was feeling guilty of her indirect role in creating Angel and Rebel, Yaz convinced her to give Angel a push. In the season finale Yaz kept pushing Sammy which Sammy was angry at her for, but Yaz apologized to her as she revealed she wanted to give Sammy the push as she did for her. Sammy hugged her knowing it wasn't her fault for getting them stuck. Yaz even said to her "Pretty sure you're the reason I have any feelings at all".
In season 5, their relationship reaches it's highest point and they become closer than ever before. She notably becomes rather nervous as she attempts to find the right opportunity to tell Sammy how she feels about her on multiple occasions before the initial attempts were interrupted by various circumstances such as when they release the Nothosaurus into the Swamp biome, eventually managing to confess her love to Sammy and affectionately kiss her.
By the series' finale, which takes place in 2018, Yaz is last seen living together with Sammy.
In Chaos Theory, Yaz had left Sammy’s house to start college on a dinosaur-free island but continued their relationship in a long distance way…but during the time when dinosaurs were roaming the planet after the Lockwood Manor incident, Sammy started becoming overprotective of Yaz, as she would put it, “treating me (Yaz) like a child instead of your (Sammy) girlfriend.” and Yaz had been silent with contacting Sammy for a while before the events of the show. When she reunited with Sammy and Ben, she and Sammy got into an argument after being told that they were being hunted but they reconciled shortly after a dinosaur attack and Yaz showing confidence and comfort to Sammy after the van fell into the water. After getting out of the water, Yaz and Sammy both admit they need each other and reconcile with a kiss.
Mrs. Fadoula[]
Yaz has a very positive relationship with her mother, despite generally preferring to avoid being around people.
Ben Pincus[]
Yaz has a good friendship with Ben and clearly was overjoyed to learn he was still alive. She still thinks he's a bit odd even after they get off the island.
Bumpy[]
Yaz and Bumpy didn’t bond a lot in season 1 or 2. But, in season 3, Yaz starts carrying fruit in her pocket and giving some to Bumpy, thus, their relationship with each other has increased, making them close enough for Yaz to call her “Bumpster”. She later gives some fruit to Sammy to she can bond with Bumpy too.
Brooklynn[]
During the 1st season, Yaz doesn't start out on best terms with Brooklyn due to their clashing personalities, often getting mildly annoyed over the vlogger filming however she saw fit. This goes to the extent of having an argument where she defends Sammy when Brooklyn first suspects the former stole her phone, though the allegations turned out to be true in the end, much to Yaz' anger.
Over the course of the series she and Brooklynn develop a grudging respect for one another's strengths. Their friendship grew strong enough that Yaz asked Brooklynn for help with her PTSD treatments.
Kenji Kon[]
Yaz was initially annoyed and disgusted by Kenji and his lack of work ethic. She kept pushing him until Kenji actually started working on self improving himself. They have a good friendship with one another.
Darius Bowman[]
It took time for Yaz to develop a friendship with Darius due to their ages and hobbies. Eventually, they grew to respect each other and became good friends.
Mae Turner[]
It took a bit for Yaz to become comfortable around Mae but she eventually felt safe around her. Mae in turn was showed to care for Yaz and told her after they initially parted ways that even though she did know what Fadoula was afraid of, she did believe that the rest of the Nublar Six could help her overcome it, which Yaz took to heart.
