  <description>This week, we look at the big show-stopping attractions for each side of our new theme park. Jim, having done little preparation last week, gets more in-depth on his vision for his side of the park and its new showcase attraction The Golden Coaster, because when one is talking theme park history, it's hard to ignore how important the coaster is. The attraction also includes exhibits, ways to design your own coaster (think CyberSpace Mountain), and other fun surprises.
Meanwhile, Scottye takes his guests on a tour of The Secrets Of The Unicorn. In this zero-drink minimum family-fun attraction (a phrase no one in the theme park business has probably ever typed before), guests travel to the cave of the mystical unicorn and help it wage war against Rat Fink, who is seemingly the mascot of this side of the park. Afterward, enter the requisite gift shop/requisite-for-this-park bar to try some Cave Water, which is apparently just a Blue Hawaiian but probably in some kind of souvenir container for an exorbitant price. This is a theme park after all.
