**Voice Sheet – Scene: Café in Alborn, MN** **Marie:** *(looking at her camera, frowning)* *…* **Hunter:** *(approaches, clears throat)* Excuse me, ma’am. I’m Detective Hunter. Mind if I ask you a couple of questions? It’s about the disappearance near the apple orchard yesterday. **Marie:** *(looks up, startled; speaks rapidly in French)* Oh, pardon… Vous parlez de l’homme près du verger ? Oui, j’ai pris une photo… C’était étrange. Il avait l’air perdu, puis il a disparu dans les arbres. Je n’ai pas compris ce qui s’est passé. *(shakes head, voice trembling)* **Hunter:** *(blinks, pauses)* Uh… I’m sorry, I don’t… do you speak English? **Marie:** *(tries again, slower but still French)* Je ne parle pas anglais. Désolée. Je disais que j’ai vu un homme… Il avait l’air en danger. *(points at her camera)* La photo… je peux montrer ? **Hunter:** *(sighs, scratches his head)* Look, I really need to know what you saw. Do you have anyone who can translate? **Marie:** *(frustrated, gestures at the camera)* Photo ! Ici ! *(turns the camera screen toward him)* **Hunter:** *(leans in, peering at the photo)* That’s… that’s the guy from the report. The one who went missing. You saw him right here? **Marie:** *(nods vigorously, then speaks more urgently in French)* Oui, oui ! Il était tout seul, il regardait autour de lui comme s’il avait peur. Puis quelqu’un a crié—je ne sais pas d’où—et il a couru vers le bois. Je n’ai pas osé le suivre. **Hunter:** *(frustrated, shakes head)* I wish I understood what you’re saying. But that photo is evidence. I’m gonna need to take your memory card. **Marie:** *(looks alarmed, clutches camera)* Non, non ! C’est à moi ! Je ne veux pas… *(stands up, backing away slightly)* **Hunter:** *(raises a placating hand)* Hey, hey—I’m not taking your camera. Just the card. I’ll give you a receipt, you can get it back after the case. Trust me, I’m the law. **Marie:** *(confused, but slowly hands the camera to him after a long pause)* …D’accord. Mais faites attention. **Hunter:** *(takes the camera, extracts the memory card, hands the camera back)* Thanks. I appreciate it. *(His phone buzzes)* Hold on— *(answers phone)* Hunter here. Yeah? … On my way. *(hangs up, turns to Marie)* I gotta go. Stay in town, okay? I might need you for more questions. *(tips his hat, exits quickly)* **Marie:** *(watches him leave, whispers in French)* Je n’ai pas compris un mot… mais j’espère qu’il trouvera cet homme. *(sits back down, hugging her camera)*
