Day 128
Day 128 in Seahaven Springs, under rainy skies. For four seconds Truman Beaumont's radio carried a voice describing exactly where Truman Beaumont was standing. Dot Ferris is stepping out with Dr. Cornelius Pratt. Gus Tidewater is stepping out with Marla Finch. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
