The Second Sally

Welcome back to Havershed County, where people continue to double down on screwing up. Here we find a small glimpse into their lives and disillusionments - and maybe one or two triumphs and happy endings. Of course, there's still plenty of insecurity and disappointment. And the transitive nature of human existence. And that crucial boy/girl stuff. A cook realizes a lot can happen between last call and 7am, and a man who tries to go on the run finds he can't. One young man loses faith in his hero, another loses his first love, and one tries to win the girl with the power of rock and roll. A woman who won't admit she lost a bet gains something else, while a woman who made the wrong bet wins a new chance. A widower's friends try to help him move on.

See what happens when you balance a fair measure of misery versus a spare optimistic thought.
