Episode
Day 2607
Day 2607 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Ned Ferris has hosted the thing they kept meaning to host. For four seconds Truman Beaumont's radio carried a voice describing exactly where Truman Beaumont was standing. Word has gone round the kitchens: Truman Beaumont is to be given his favourite, and no bill. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Bench at The Pond runs into trouble. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
