Day 1186
Day 1186 in Seahaven Springs, under rainy skies. The radio in Truman Beaumont's kitchen has been persuaded to play his favourite song. He is singing along, badly. Dot Ferris is expecting a baby with Kip Doyle. Rex Callahan is in Seahaven General after they went over on the cobbles carrying rather too much at once. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Anonymous Good Deed takes a turn. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
