Day 3550
Day 3550 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Hal Brody has been discharged from Seahaven General and is right as rain. Bea Callahan has got to the bottom of it. The bottom was not far down. Cass Tanner was born to Bev Tanner and Milo Ferris. 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.
