**Voice Sheet: Dialogue Between Maria and Hunter** **Scene:** A quaint café in Alborn, MN. Maria sits at a corner table, her camera in hand, looking troubled. Hunter approaches her table. --- **Hunter:** (Firmly) Excuse me, miss. I'm Detective Hunter. I need to ask you a few questions about the recent events in town. **Maria:** (Looking up, startled, in Spanish) ¿Perdón? No entiendo. (She shakes her head, looking confused and frightened.) **Hunter:** (Frowning) I said, I'm Detective Hunter. I need to ask you some questions. (He gestures to the empty chair across from her.) May I? **Maria:** (Nodding hesitantly, still in Spanish) Sí, sí, por favor. (She gestures to the chair, her hands trembling slightly.) **Hunter:** (Sitting down) Do you speak English? I need to ask you about the disappearances in town. **Maria:** (Shaking her head, in Spanish) No hablo inglés. Lo siento. (She looks down at her camera, her expression troubled.) **Hunter:** (Sighing, leaning back in his chair) Alright, let's try this. (He pulls out his notepad and pen.) Do you know anything about the disappearances? Have you seen anything unusual? **Maria:** (Looking up, her eyes wide, in Spanish) Sí, sí. Vi algo. (She hesitates, then continues quickly.) Anoche, vi a un hombre. Él... él estaba actuando de manera extraña. (She gestures with her hands, trying to convey her meaning.) **Hunter:** (Frowning, trying to follow her gestures) A man? What did he look like? Can you describe him? **Maria:** (Nodding, in Spanish) Sí. Alto, pelo oscuro. Llevaba una chaqueta negra. (She mimics zipping up a jacket.) Él... él estaba cerca del bosque. (She points in the general direction of the woods outside of town.) **Hunter:** (Writing notes, nodding) Tall, dark hair, black jacket, near the woods. Got it. (He looks up at her.) Did you see anything else? Anything that seemed off? **Maria:** (Shaking her head, in Spanish) No, no vi nada más. Pero... (She hesitates, then continues.) Pero tenía una sensación extraña. Como si alguien me estuviera observando. (She shivers, wrapping her arms around herself.) **Hunter:** (Nodding sympathetically) I understand. That's enough for now. (He stands up, putting his notepad away.) Thank you for your help. If you remember anything else, please come find me at the police station. **Maria:** (Nodding, in Spanish) Sí, sí. Gracias. (She looks down at her camera, her expression still troubled.) **Hunter:** (Turning to leave, then pausing) Oh, and one more thing. (He turns back to her.) Do you have a name? I didn't catch it earlier. **Maria:** (Looking up, in Spanish) María. Me llamo María. **Hunter:** (Nodding) María. Thank you, María. (He gives her a small smile, then turns and walks away.) **Maria:** (Watching him go, in Spanish) Adiós. (She looks down at her camera, her expression still troubled.) **Hunter:** (Pulling out his phone as he walks out of the café) Hello? Yeah, it's me. I think I've got a lead. (He pauses, listening to the voice on the other end.) Yeah, I'll be right there. (He hangs up, quickening his pace as he leaves the café.) --- **End Scene.**
