Day 5269
Day 5269 in Seahaven Springs, under cloudy skies. Commotion at The Anchor! Bea Callahan and Hal Brody came to (very gentle) blows over a heated debate over the last pickled egg. Hal Brody is not currently speaking to Bea Callahan. 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. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
