Here is the scene with the dialogue in a voice sheet format: **Scene: "A Troubling Encounter at the Cafe"** **Setting:** A cozy cafe in the heart of Alborn, MN. The aroma of freshly brewed coffee fills the air, and the sound of gentle chatter provides a warm background hum. Marie sits alone at a small table by the window, her camera in hand, gazing out at the autumnal scenery. **The Scene Unfolds:** Hunter, dressed in casual yet authoritative attire, approaches Marie's table. His expression is a mix of curiosity and professionalism. **Voice Sheet:** | **Speaker** | **Dialogue** | | --- | --- | | **Hunter** | Excuse me, miss. Mind if I join you for a minute? I'm Detective Hunter with the Alborn Police Department. I'm investigating some recent... unusual occurrences in town. Did you happen to witness anything out of the ordinary last night, perhaps during the apple festival preparations? | | **Marie** | *looks up, visibly troubled and shaken* Oh mon dieu, oui... La nuit dernière, j'ai vu quelque chose de très étrange près du grand verger. J'étais là pour prendre des photos de la lune sur les arbres, mais j'ai entendu des bruits bizarres, puis j'ai vu une personne disparaître dans les ombres. J'ai cru que c'était mon imagination, mais maintenant, je ne suis plus si sûre... *trails off, looking anxious* | | **Hunter** | *looks at her, confused* I... sorry, could you please repeat that? I didn't quite catch what you said. *leans in slightly, hoping to understand through body language or tone* | | **Marie** | *realizes the communication barrier, looks worried* Oh, désolée... *tries to mimic taking pictures with her camera, then acts out looking around nervously and points towards the outskirts of town, attempting to convey her message non-verbally* | | **Hunter** | *watches her charade, still perplexed but nods sympathetically* I see. Well, ma'am, I appreciate your willingness to communicate. Unfortunately, I don't speak... *gestures vaguely, hoping she'll understand the language barrier*. If you'd be willing, could you come down to the station later? Maybe we can find someone to... translate? *pauses as his phone rings* Excuse me, I need to take this. *answers the phone* Detective Hunter. | | **Marie** | *nods, looking both relieved and concerned, watches as Hunter stands up and steps aside to continue his call* | | **Hunter** | *into the phone, walking away* Yes, what's the update on the Smith case?... Alright, I'm on my way. *to Marie, from a distance* I'll send someone for you, okay? *gives a reassuring nod before exiting the cafe* |
