Day 2658
Day 2658 in Seahaven Springs, under cloudy skies. Rex Callahan is in a staring contest with a gull on the dock. The gull is winning. Abel Callahan is not currently speaking to Iris Brody. Abel Callahan 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. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
