Day 2300
Day 2300 in Seahaven Springs, under rainy skies. Kip Doyle has come down with a cough with genuine ambition and is being kept in for observation. The tide is out further than usual. Dot Ferris has gone to look at what it left behind. Marla Finch is in a staring contest with a gull on the dock. The gull is winning. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. A Wager on the Weather takes a turn. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
