Day 3998
Day 3998 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. The puddle outside the Sunrise Café has returned to its usual dimensions. Hal Brody and Bev Tanner no longer need a reason to call round. One small Seahaven question is settled, and Wilf Tanner is already eyeing another. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. Everybody, Slightly Left runs into trouble. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
