Day 5074
Day 5074 in Seahaven Springs, under rainy skies. Commotion at The Anchor! Cass Tanner and Hal Brody came to (very gentle) blows over a disputed game of dominoes. Hal Brody is not currently speaking to Cass Tanner. Cass Tanner 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. A Quiet Week for the Sheriff begins. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
