**Voice Sheet: Dialogue Between Maria and Hunter** **Scene:** Maria sits at a quaint café in Alborn, MN, sipping a cup of tea and scrolling through photos on her camera. Detective Hunter approaches her table, clearing his throat to get her attention. --- **Hunter:** "Excuse me, miss? Do you mind if I ask you a few questions?" **Maria:** *(looks up, startled, and smiles politely)* "¿Disculpe? No hablo inglés. ¿Puede hablar en español?" *(Excuse me? I don’t speak English. Can you speak Spanish?)* **Hunter:** *(frowns, confused)* "Uh… I don’t understand. Do you speak English?" **Maria:** *(shakes her head, gesturing apologetically)* "No, lo siento. Solo hablo español." *(No, I’m sorry. I only speak Spanish.)* **Hunter:** *(sighs, trying to gesture)* "I’m Detective Hunter. I’m investigating… uh…" *(pauses, frustrated)* "Never mind. Let’s try this. Did you see anything… unusual? Strange? Last night?" *(makes exaggerated gestures with his hands)* **Maria:** *(her expression darkens, and she looks visibly shaken)* "Sí… anoche, vi algo muy raro. Era como una sombra, moviéndose entre los árboles. Me dio mucho miedo." *(Yes… last night, I saw something very strange. It was like a shadow, moving between the trees. It scared me.)* **Hunter:** *(leans in, intrigued but still lost)* "A shadow? Trees? What are you saying?" **Maria:** *(tries to explain further, pointing toward the woods outside town)* "Allí, en el bosque. Vi algo… no sé cómo explicarlo. No debería haber estado allí." *(There, in the woods. I saw something… I don’t know how to explain it. It shouldn’t have been there.)* **Hunter:** *(frustrated but trying to stay calm)* "Look, I don’t understand what you’re saying, but… thank you, I guess." *(Just then, Hunter’s phone rings. He holds up a finger to Maria, answering the call.)* **Hunter:** *(into the phone)* "Hunter. What? Another one? Alright, I’m on my way." *(He hangs up and turns back to Maria, nodding curtly.)* **Hunter:** "I have to go. Thank you… for… whatever you said." **Maria:** *(smiles weakly)* "De nada. Buena suerte." *(You’re welcome. Good luck.)* (*Hunter exits the café, leaving Maria staring after him, her brow furrowed with worry.*) --- **End Scene**
