Day 3413
Day 3413 in Seahaven Springs, under rainy skies. The town clock has stopped at twenty past four. Nobody can agree on when it happened, which is itself a problem of some irony. The radio in Truman Beaumont's kitchen has been persuaded to play his favourite song. He is singing along, badly. Somebody has repainted their front door overnight. Opinions are being gathered. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. What Our Song Actually Is reaches its conclusion. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
