Day 1959
Day 1959 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Ewan Callahan has been released from the Sheriff's office with a stern word and a handshake. The puddle outside the Sunrise Café has returned to its usual dimensions. Ned Ferris was born to Lark Ferris and Abel Callahan. 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.
OPEN THIS DAY IN THE BROADCASTWhat was announced
00:00Ewan Callahan has been released from the Sheriff's office with a stern word and a handshake.
01:00The puddle outside the Sunrise Café has returned to its usual dimensions.
03:00The rain has cleared. A rainbow appeared at a frankly cinematic angle.
07:00The Bakery's fresh bread smell has reached the town square. Productivity plummets.
08:00Clouds drift in over the bay. The fishermen pretend not to enjoy it.
08:14Hattie Whitlow has got good enough at learning the orchard properly to be quietly smug about it.
08:52Ewan Callahan and Orson Ferris have cleared the air over a quiet chat.

09:12Whatever Elaine Whitlow and Marla Finch were circling, they have landed on it.
10:00Saturday orchard morning is under way. Opinions about ladders are plentiful.
11:00The community orchard is in blossom and briefly the best place in town.
11:41learning the orchard properly has stopped being something Bev Tanner is trying, and become something they do.
14:00A kite is stuck in the big park tree. A committee is forming.
15:00The orchard is loud with bees. Nobody has been stung in living memory.
18:00Someone is practising the same eight bars of piano again. The town has grown fond of them.
20:00The sun breaks through over Seahaven Springs, precisely on cue.
21:00A face Truman Beaumont last saw years ago walked by wearing a different coat and a different life.
21:00A lighthouse postcard has been added to today's mail. Truman Beaumont collects them, and Control knows it.
21:43Hal Brody has decided the dartboard is at fault and said so publicly.
21:58Rue Callahan is negotiating with a bar stool and appears to be losing.
22:00The lights of Seahaven Springs flickered for exactly three seconds. The town clock is unbothered.
22:03Bea Callahan is teaching the room a song that appears to have no chorus.
22:05Hattie Whitlow offered to buy the room a drink, then checked a pocket.
22:06Orson Ferris has reached the storytelling stage at The Anchor.
23:00A door that has been locked for as long as Truman Beaumont can remember was standing open this morning.
