In our quest , we got an idea of what kind of town Seward might be . The diner Tom wanted to go to closed at 7.30 , just as the town was filling with evening revelers for the pre - July 4th festivities . The next restaurant had a 45 minute wait for a table .

Answer the following question: What may be a fact about their situation ?
They are trying to find somewhere to eat .
