Day 5722
Day 5722 in Seahaven Springs, under rainy skies. Commotion at The Anchor! Dell Tanner and Gil Ferris came to (very gentle) blows over a disputed game of dominoes. Iris Brody is not currently speaking to Cass Tanner. Dell Tanner is not currently speaking to Gil Ferris. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Shortcut reaches its conclusion. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
