Day 4298
Day 4298 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Hal Brody is in a staring contest with a gull on the dock. The gull is winning. Dot Ferris and Kip Doyle no longer need a reason to call round. Flo Ferris and Cass Tanner have cleared the air over a quiet chat. 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.
