Day 5172
Day 5172 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Commotion at The Anchor! Hal Brody and Flo Ferris came to (very gentle) blows over an argument about the correct way to pronounce "buoy". Hal Brody is not currently speaking to Flo Ferris. Hal Brody 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. The Clock Is Two Minutes Fast runs into trouble. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
