Day 5796
Day 5796 in Seahaven Springs, under rainy skies. Jonah Ferris has been released from the Sheriff's office with a stern word and a handshake. Milo Ferris is in a staring contest with a gull on the dock. The gull is winning. Iris Brody is not currently speaking to Jonah Ferris. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Loaf That Cannot Be Repeated runs into trouble. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
