Day 5667
Day 5667 in Seahaven Springs, under sunny skies. Jonah Ferris has been released from the Sheriff's office with a stern word and a handshake. The radio in Truman Beaumont's kitchen has been persuaded to play his favourite song. He is singing along, badly. Gil Ferris and Flo Ferris have stopped leaving their friendship to chance. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Photograph Nobody Can Explain takes a turn. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
