Day 3204
Day 3204 in Seahaven Springs, under cloudy skies. Truman Beaumont and Elaine Whitlow discover they are both entering the pie-baking contest. Elaine Whitlow is not currently speaking to Alma Callahan. Alma 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. The Great Pie-Baking Rivalry takes a turn. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
