Day 5752
Day 5752 in Seahaven Springs, under cloudy skies. Hattie Whitlow has been discharged from Seahaven General and is right as rain. Posy Gorse and Perry Gorse have got into the habit of each other. Iris Brody and Marla Finch have got into the habit of each other. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Leak at The Town Hall reaches its conclusion. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
