Day 361
Day 361 in Seahaven Springs, under rainy skies. Ada has been released from the Sheriff's office with a stern word and a handshake. Dot Ferris is stepping out with Dr. Cornelius Pratt. Dot Ferris has found her weeks unaccountably full. 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.
