**Scene Setting:** The scene takes place at "The Cider Press Cafe" in the heart of Alborn, MN. The air smells of cinnamon and roasted coffee. Maria is tucked into a velvet booth in the corner, her digital camera resting on the table. She is scrolling through photos of the town square, her expression anxious. Detective Hunter approaches her, his heavy boots thumping on the hardwood floor. He looks tired, his brow furrowed with the weight of the missing persons cases. *** **Dialogue Voice Sheet:** Hunter: "Excuse me. You're the exchange student, right? Maria?" Maria: "*(Looking up, startled)* ¿Sí? ¿Quién es usted?" Hunter: "I'm Detective Hunter. I'm investigating a few things around town. You were taking photos near the old mill yesterday afternoon. Did you see anyone heading toward the woods around four o'clock?" Maria: "*(Her voice trembling, gesturing frantically with her hands)* ¡Sí! Vi a alguien. Era un hombre, pero parecía... asustado. ¡Estaba corriendo como si alguien lo persiguiera! Intenté tomar una foto, pero pasó demasiado rápido." Hunter: "*(Blinks, leaning in)* Slow down. I don't speak whatever that is. Do you speak English? Just a little?" Maria: "*(Shaking her head, eyes wide with distress)* No hablo inglés. No entiendo. ¡Por favor, escúcheme! El hombre... desapareció entre los árboles. ¡Fue muy extraño!" Hunter: "*(Sighs, rubbing the bridge of his nose)* Great. Just great. Look, I don't know what you're telling me, but if you saw something, I need to know. Can you point to it on a map? Or show me the photos?" Maria: "*(Quickly scrolling through her camera and showing him a blurry image of a dark figure)* ¡Mire! ¡Aquí! ¡Lo vi desaparecer! Tengo miedo de que le haya pasado algo malo." Hunter: "*(Squinting at the screen)* It's a blur, kid. I can't tell if that's a person or a smudge on your lens. Look, I want to help you explain this, but—" *(Hunter’s phone rings loudly in his pocket. He answers it quickly)* Hunter: "*(Into phone)* Hunter here. What? Another one? Where?... Dammit. I'm on my way." Hunter: "*(To Maria, gesturing to the camera)* Stay here. Don't delete anything. I'll be back with someone who actually speaks your language. Don't move." Maria: "*(Confused and frightened)* ¿A dónde va? ¿Qué está pasando? ¡Espere!"
