**Voice Sheet:** *(Scene: A cozy café in Alborn, MN. Marie is sitting at a small wooden table, adjusting her camera lens. Hunter enters, scans the room, and approaches her.)* **Hunter:** "Excuse me, ma’am. Do you speak English?" **Marie:** *(looking up, startled)* "Désolée, je ne parle pas anglais." *(Sorry, I don’t speak English.)* *(She hesitates, then adds shyly in accented English)* "A little." **Hunter:** *(relieved)* "Oh, great! You’re French?" **Marie:** *(nodding)* "Oui." *(Yes.)* "I am Marie." **Hunter:** "Detective Hunter." *(He pulls out a chair and sits across from her.)* "I wanted to ask you about the disappearances in town. You’ve been here a while, right?" **Marie:** *(voice trembling slightly)* "Oui. It... it is scary. I saw a woman near the old mill. She was—" *(She stops, gripping her camera tighter.)* **Hunter:** *(leaning in)* "Saw what? Anything unusual?" **Marie:** *(shaking her head, nervous)* "Non. But she looked... afraid. Like me." *(Hunter frowns, confused by her tone.)* **Hunter:** "Like you?" **Marie:** *(hesitant, switching back to French)* "Oui. Comme si quelque chose n’allait pas." *(Yes. Like something wasn’t right.)* **Hunter:** *(sighs, rubbing his temples)* "Look, I don’t speak French well, okay? Can you try in English?" **Marie:** *(takes a deep breath, forcing a shaky smile)* "I will try. The woman... she was young. Like me. And she ran. I think she saw something before I did." **Hunter:** *(pulling out his notepad)* "Did you tell anyone else?" **Marie:** *(shaking her head)* "No. Only you." *(Hunter’s phone rings loudly. He checks the caller ID, curses under his breath.)* **Hunter:** *(standing up abruptly)* "Gotta take this. Listen, Marie—if you see anything else, call the station." *(He hands her a business card with his number.)* "And... thanks." *(Marie nods, watching as Hunter answers the call and strides away, leaving her alone with her camera and uneasy thoughts.)* *(End scene.)*
