``` Melanie: "[Quietly reviewing photos on her camera, sipping coffee]" Hunter: "[Approaches table] Excuse me, miss. I'm Detective Hunter. I'm investigating some recent events in town, and I was hoping you might have seen something unusual around here." Melanie: "[Looks up startled, eyes widening] Oh! Um... ich verstehe nicht. Ich spreche kein Englisch." Hunter: "[Confused] You... don't speak English? Do you understand what I'm saying? I'm with the police." Melanie: "[Nervously clutching her camera] Polizei? Ja, ich verstehe. Aber... ich bin nur hier für Studien. Ich habe nichts gesehen." Hunter: "Look, I just need to know if you've noticed anyone acting strange or if you've seen anything out of the ordinary. People have gone missing." Melanie: "[Shakes head, speaking rapidly in German] Nein, nein! Ich habe niemanden Verdächtiges gesehen. Nur... ich habe Fotos gemacht. Landschaften. Nur Bäume und Hügel." Hunter: "Photos? You take pictures? Could I see them? Maybe you captured something without realizing it." Melanie: "[Hesitates, then shows camera] Die Fotos? Aber sie sind nicht wichtig. Nur die Natur. [Points at camera screen] Sehen Sie? Nur der See, die Bäume..." Hunter: "[Peering at camera, frustrated] I can't understand what you're saying. This would be a lot easier if we had a translator." Melanie: "[Notices his frustration, speaks more slowly, worried] Es tut mir leid. Ich wünschte, ich könnte helfen. Aber ich habe wirklich nichts gesehen. Außer... [trails off, looking troubled]" Hunter: "Except what? Did you see something?" Melanie: "[Shakes head again, more shaken] Nein. Es ist nichts. Bitte, ich möchte nicht in Schwierigkeiten geraten." Hunter: "[Phone rings, sighs] Hold that thought. [Answers phone] Detective Hunter... Yeah? Okay, I'm on my way. [To Melanie] Look, I have to go, but I may need to speak with you again. Don't leave town." Melanie: "[Confused] Was? Warten! Ich verstehe nicht!" Hunter: "[Already walking away] We'll talk later!" ```
