Day 2494
Day 2494 in Seahaven Springs, under rainy skies. Sal Marino is in a staring contest with a gull on the dock. The gull is winning. Edie Gorse is not currently speaking to Hattie Whitlow. Hattie Whitlow is cooling off in the Sheriff's holding cell after the business at The Anchor. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Shortcut runs into trouble. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
