Day 4712
Day 4712 in Seahaven Springs, under cloudy skies. Commotion at The Anchor! Gil Ferris and Hattie Whitlow came to (very gentle) blows over a difference of opinion regarding the jukebox. Hattie Whitlow is not currently speaking to Gil Ferris. Hattie Whitlow is cooling off in the Sheriff's holding cell after the business at The Anchor. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. Whose Ladder Is This reaches its conclusion. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.

18:00The rain has cleared. A rainbow appeared at a frankly cinematic angle.
