Day 597
Day 597 in Seahaven Springs, under cloudy skies. A lighthouse postcard has been added to today's mail. Truman Beaumont collects them, and Control knows it. Dot Ferris lost Dr. Cornelius Pratt after a long life together. Dot Ferris is stepping out with Kip Doyle. 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.
