Day 1978
Day 1978 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Rex Callahan has been released from the Sheriff's office with a stern word and a handshake. Rex Callahan is not currently speaking to Linus Tidewater. Ned Ferris was born to Lark Ferris and Abel Callahan. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Shortcut reaches its conclusion. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
