Day 5148
Day 5148 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Iris Brody and Marla Finch have quietly become the sort of friends who notice things. For four seconds Truman Beaumont's radio carried a voice describing exactly where Truman Beaumont was standing. Control has sent an old friend to sit with Truman Beaumont for a while. Nothing calms him faster. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. Word of an Inspection runs into trouble. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
