# Dialogue: **Marie:** *Sits at a cozy corner table in the cafe, her vintage camera resting on the tablecloth. She notices Hunter's approach and offers a tentative smile, clearly nervous.* **Hunter:** Afternoon. Sorry to interrupt, but I wonder if I could have a word with you. I'm Detective Hunter, Alborn Police. There's a matter I'd like to discuss, and it's an official inquiry. **Marie:** *Her eyes widen, and she shakes her head gently, speaking in fluent French.* Pardon? Je... Je ne comprends pas. *(Translates to: I'm sorry, I don't understand.)* **Hunter:** *Frowns, obviously confused by her response.* What? Hold on... Are you... Do you speak English? **Marie:** *Troubled, she shakes her head again, whispering softly in French.* Non, je... Je suis désolé. Je ne parle pas anglais. *(I don't... I'm sorry. I don't speak English.)* **Hunter:** *Scratches his head, frustrated.* Right. Okay, this is a first. I, uh... I might need to bring in a translator. Can you tell me your name, at least? **Marie:** Marie. Je m'appelle Marie. *(My name is Marie.)* *She holds up her camera with a hesitant smile.* Je... J'aime la photographie. *(I love photography.)* **Hunter:** Marie, I got it. Listen, there's been some strange activity around town. Disappearances, odd sightings. I just need to ask a few questions. Do you mind if I sit down? **Marie:** *She nods and gestures to the chair across from her, speaking softly with a shaken voice in French.* Bien sûr. *(Of course.)* **Hunter:** Great. Now, were you at the town square last night around midnight? **Marie:** *Marie's expression becomes more troubled, and she shakes her head, responding in a rush of French.* Non, non. Je suis sortie pour prendre des photos de la pleine lune. J'étais dans la forêt. *(No, no. I went out to take pictures of the full moon. I was in the forest.)* (The conversation continues with Marie providing her alibi and Hunter asking further questions about her activities and any potential observations.) --- **Hunter:** *Anxious, he reaches for his phone as it vibrates in his pocket.* Sorry, Marie. I have to take this. It's work. **Marie:** *Nods, understanding, as Hunter steps away to answer the call.* **Hunter:** *(Into the phone):* Hunter here... Yeah, I'm on it. Just got some new leads... Roger that. I'm on my way. *(He ends the call.)* **Hunter:** Sorry, gotta run. We'll continue this later, Marie. **Marie:** *She offers a small wave, unsure of what just happened.* Au revoir. *(Goodbye.)* **Hunter:** *(Exiting):* I'll be in touch!
