Tonight was another great show. This whole season has been jam packed with details and plot twists upon plot twists. Tonight’s show was particularly fast paced even though the story centered mostly on Desmond. Rather than break it down by group or era, I think it’s best if we just follow the progression of the show. Forgive me if I leave any thing out or miss a few details or it gets hard to follow. Like I said, it was a very busy show.
The episode opens with Sayid, Desmond, and Frank on the Helicopter. Frank is carefully trying to follow the heading he was provided with. While Sayid and Desmond puzzle over why Penny’s picture was found with Naomi. The Helicopter enters a storm and suddenly Desmond is time traveling again.
Desmond finds himself back in the army shortly after his breakup with Penny. Then he’s back in the Helicopter, but he’s forgotten who Sayid is. And… Title Sequence.

We were told to expect the most significant announcement in this history of Busch Entertainment Corporation (BEC) and, short of a plan for Anheuser-Busch to sell the company, they delivered. Today BEC was joined by executives from Nakheel, the largest property developer in Dubai United Arab Emerites, to reveal the agreement to create the Worlds Of Discovery – a four park mega resort – on The Palm Jebel Ali in Dubai.

SeaWorld, Aquatica, Busch Gardens, and Discovery Cove – The Worlds Of Discovery parks – will see their first guest as soon as 2012 on a Shamu shaped reclaimed custom built island at “The Crown” of The Palm Jebel Ali, the world’s largest man-made island. The Palm Jebel Ali is the second palm tree shaped man-made island to be built as part of Dubai’s quest to become the world’s entertainment destination. It will feature luxury housing, and resort hotels along its many acres of new shoreline.

More than 2 billion people live within a 5 hour flight of Dubai, which makes it a natural hub for the Middle East, Africa, Eastern Europe, and India. Worlds Of Discovery – Dubai will join Universal Studios Dubailand and a host of other tourist attractions including Cirque De Soliel, The QE2, Trump Tower, and an Atlantis Resort in the region.
