Day 5236
Day 5236 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Milo Ferris is in a staring contest with a gull on the dock. The gull is winning. Hal Brody is not currently speaking to Edie Gorse. Posy Gorse was born to Edie Gorse and Ewan Callahan. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. A Visitor Is Expected runs into trouble. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
