Day 618
Day 618 in Seahaven Springs, under rainy skies. Flo Tidewater slipped on the wet planks down at the dock and is spending a few days in Seahaven General. 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 Leak at The Anchor runs into trouble. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
OPEN THIS DAY IN THE BROADCASTWhat was announced
08:00The rain has cleared. A rainbow appeared at a frankly cinematic angle.
10:00There is one more chair at The Anchor than there was yesterday. Rex has not mentioned it.
11:00The lights of Seahaven Springs flickered for exactly three seconds. The town clock is unbothered.
12:49UPDATE: 'Case half-closed' Anchor leak reopens as second damp spot found — Truman vows to get to the bottom of it, literally.
15:00The tide is out further than usual. Edie Gorse has gone to look at what it left behind.
16:00Flo Tidewater slipped on the wet planks down at the dock and is spending a few days in Seahaven General.
18:00A kite is stuck in the big park tree. A committee is forming.
19:00The Town Hall clock and the bakery clock disagree by two minutes. Both are certain.
19:34Spotted: June Ellery patiently nodding along to insurance-adjacent leak theories over dessert.
20:00An unclaimed umbrella has been standing by the café door for three days.
20:46Kip Doyle is teaching the room a song that appears to have no chorus.
22:00Rain has begun over Seahaven Springs. Umbrellas deployed with suspicious synchronization.
22:03Fern Gorse is describing a fish that grows between each telling.
