Day 5843
Day 5843 in Seahaven Springs, under cloudy skies. Ike Tidewater has been released from the Sheriff's office with a stern word and a handshake. Perry Gorse is not currently speaking to Ike Tidewater. Perry Gorse 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. Talent Night at The Anchor takes a turn. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
