Day 5078
Day 5078 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. The Sheriff declares the town safe and returns to the crossword. And so concludes: A Quiet Week for the Sheriff. The town will live with how it ended. Nell Tidewater was born to Mabel Tidewater and Dell Tanner. 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.
