Day 170
Day 170 in Seahaven Springs, under cloudy skies. The radio in Truman Beaumont's kitchen has been persuaded to play his favourite song. He is singing along, badly. 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. A Quiet Week for the Sheriff reaches its conclusion. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
