Day 603
Day 603 in Seahaven Springs, under rainy skies. Training montages occur. Trash talk remains extremely polite. 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 Great Chess Rivalry reaches its conclusion. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
