**Voice Sheet** *Setting: A quaint café in Alborn, MN. The rich aroma of coffee fills the air as the midday sun streams through the window. Marie sits at a table, absorbed in adjusting her camera settings. Hunter approaches her, his demeanor serious as he tries to engage her in conversation.* --- **Marie:** *[murmuring to herself while fiddling with the camera]* "C'est si mystérieux…" **Hunter:** *[approaching, with a gentle but direct tone]* "Hey there. I’m Detective Hunter. I heard about some strange events around here lately. Have you seen anything unusual?" **Marie:** *[looking up, clearly troubled]* "Je… je ne sais pas. Il y a eu des disparitions..." *[her voice trembles slightly]* **Hunter:** *[confused, taking a step closer]* "Disappearances? I’m sorry, but I don’t understand. Can you speak English?" **Marie:** *[frustrated, trying to explain]* "Les gens… ils ne reviennent pas. C’est effrayant." **Hunter:** *[scratching his head]* "Okay, um… people aren’t coming back? That sounds serious. But I’m not sure what you mean. Have you witnessed anything?" **Marie:** *[gazes out the window, lost in thought]* "Je suis si seule ici. Personne ne m'aide…" **Hunter:** *[softening a bit, trying to connect]* "I can imagine it’s tough being somewhere new. Look, if you see or hear anything, you should let me know. I can help." **Marie:** *[sighs, her worry evident]* "Merci... mais je suis ici seulement pour étudier... Je ne veux pas de problèmes." **Hunter:** *[nodding, understanding her concern]* "I get that. But sometimes problems find you, even when you’re not looking. Just stay alert. Promise?" **Marie:** "Je promets… mais qu’est-ce que je peux faire?" **Hunter:** *[smiles reassuringly as he glances at his watch]* "For now, just enjoy your time here. Take your photos. But remember, my number is—" *Hunter’s phone suddenly rings, interrupting their conversation.* **Hunter:** *[looking apologetic]* "Sorry, I have to take this. Stay safe, okay?" *[turns to leave but glances back once more]* "And if you need anything, don’t hesitate to reach out to me." **Marie:** *[nodding, though still looking worried]* "D'accord… Merci, détective." *Hunter walks away, answering the call as Marie watches him disappear into the bustling café atmosphere, contemplation heavy in her eyes.* --- *Scene Ends*
