Day 2241
Day 2241 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Orson Ferris has been discharged from Seahaven General and is right as rain. The Sheriff declares the town safe and returns to the crossword. And so concludes: A Quiet Week for the Sheriff. The town will live with how it ended. 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.
