Day 2868
Day 2868 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Ned Ferris has been released from the Sheriff's office with a stern word and a handshake. Hal Brody is not currently speaking to Toby Tanner. Truman Beaumont is not currently speaking to Orson Ferris. 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.
