Episode
Day 1
Welcome, dear friends, to Seahaven Springs—where the bread smells sweeter than the promises made to keep it, where a beloved bench has vanished into mystery, and where Gus Tidewater swears he didn't enjoy a single cloud that drifted across his sky. Tonight, as rain blessed the town and painted a rainbow across the bay with almost theatrical precision, the residents have gathered at The Salty Gull to share their first evening together, while Pearl Gorse broods over her sandwich-stealing seagull nemesis and a peculiar three-second darkness reminds the town clock that it, at least, is dependable. In Seahaven Springs, nothing bad ever happens—but something is always going on.
