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 and baked goods fills the air. Melanie sits at a small table by the window, her camera in front of her. **Action:** Melanie gazes at her camera, her eyes distant. Hunter, dressed in casual detective attire, approaches her table. **Voice Sheet:** | **Character** | **Dialogue** | | --- | --- | | **Hunter** | Excuse me, mind if I join you for a quick question? We've had some... unusual occurrences in town lately. Did you happen to witness anything strange around the apple festival grounds last night? | | **Melanie** | (looking up, troubled and shaken) _"Was ist hier los? Ich habe seltsame Geräusche gehört, als ich Fotos machte. Es klang wie... wie jemand weglief. Aber ich war allein, oder zumindest dachte ich das."_ (What's going on here? I heard strange noises while taking photos. It sounded like... like someone was running away. But I was alone, or at least I thought I was.) | | **Hunter** | (confused, furrowing his brow) I... I'm sorry, could you please speak English? I didn't quite catch that. | | **Melanie** | (realizing, embarrassed) _"Ach, Entschuldigung... ich... "_ (Oh, sorry... I...) (pauses, struggling to find English words) No... no English. (shakes her head) | | **Hunter** | (pulls out a small notebook) Okay, no problem. Let me try again. (draws a simple picture of a person running away) Did you see anything like this last night? | | **Melanie** | (nods, still looking shaken) _"Ja, so etwas... Ich zeige Ihnen die Fotos."_ (Yes, something like that... Let me show you the photos.) (begins scrolling through her camera) | | **Hunter** | (looks at the camera, intrigued) Ah, great... (just as he's about to ask another question, his phone rings) Excuse me, I need to take this. (stands up, answers the phone) Detective James. | | **Melanie** | (nods, still looking concerned, and continues to scroll through her photos, muttering to herself in German) _"Das erklärt nichts... "_ (That doesn't explain anything...) | **Action (continued):** Hunter steps away from the table, engaged in his phone call. Melanie's eyes linger on him for a moment before she returns to studying her photos, her expression a mix of worry and determination.
