Hunter: "Excuse me. Mind if I take a seat? I'm Detective Hunter. I'm investigating the disappearances connected to the Alborn Apple Festival. My deputy said you were taking landscape photos near the old cider mill last night when the second girl went missing." Isabella: "(Clutching her camera tightly, her eyes wide and shaken) Scusi, ma non capisco l'inglese. Parla italiano? Per favore, ho visto qualcosa di terribile ieri sera... [Excuse me, but I don't understand English. Do you speak Italian? Please, I saw something terrible last night...]" Hunter: "(Frowning, leaning back slightly and looking confused) Uh. No. I don't speak Italian. English? Do you understand any English at all?" Isabella: "(Shaking her head frantically, her voice trembling) No, mi dispiace. Non parlo una parola di inglese. Sono qui solo per un programma di studio all'estero. Ma deve guardare le mie foto! [No, I'm sorry. I don't speak a word of English. I'm only here for a study abroad program. But you must look at my photos!]" Hunter: "(Sighs, rubbing the back of his neck) Look, miss, I need you to slow down. I don't understand a single word you're saying. Do you have a friend here? Someone who can translate?" Isabella: "(Points emphatically at her camera, then taps the screen) No, sono sola. Guardi! Le fotografie. Ho scattato delle foto del paesaggio, ma c'era un uomo... un uomo con un cappotto scuro vicino ai frutteti. [No, I am alone. Look! The photographs. I took pictures of the landscape, but there was a man... a man with a dark coat near the orchards.]" Hunter: "(Squinting at the camera) The camera? You took pictures of the suspect? Let me see it. Hand it over for a second." Isabella: "(Pulls the camera to her chest, protective) No, no! Non la tocchi! È la mia macchina fotografica, è molto delicata. Le farò vedere io, ma deve guardare lo schermo. [No, no! Don't touch it! It's my camera, it's very delicate. I will show you, but you must look at the screen.]" Hunter: "(Holds his hands up in surrender, his tone firm but patient) Alright, alright. Keep your hands on it. Just show me the screen. What am I looking at? That's just the apple trees. Wait... zoom in on the tree line. Is that a vehicle?" Isabella: "(Zooms in with her trembling fingers, nodding eagerly) Sì! Esattamente! Un furgone bianco senza finestrini. E ho visto che trascinavano qualcuno nel retro. Era così spaventoso, non sapevo cosa fare. [Yes! Exactly! A white van with no windows. And I saw them dragging someone into the back. It was so frightening, I didn't know what to do.]" Hunter: "(Leaning in close, his marine focus kicking in) I don't know what you just said, but I see the van. No windows. That matches the description of the van seen near the county line. You've got a good eye. Can I take a picture of your screen with my phone?" Isabella: "(Nods, understanding his gesture, and holds the camera steady) Sì, certo. Faccia pure. Ma per favore, mi aiuti a capire cosa sta succedendo in questa città. Sono così spaventata. [Yes, of course. Go ahead. But please, help me understand what is happening in this town. I am so scared.]" Hunter: "(Snaps several photos of the screen, then pockets his phone) Thanks. This is exactly what we needed. I'll get a translator from the university down here to take your full statement. Just stay put at this table, okay? Don't wander off." Isabella: "(Nods, taking a deep breath to calm herself) Va bene. Aspetterò qui. Ma faccia in fretta, per favore. [Okay. I will wait here. But hurry, please.]" Hunter: "(His cell phone suddenly buzzes loudly on the table. He glances at the caller ID and answers) Hunter here. What? They found another one? Where? The abandoned barn on Route 4? I'm on my way." Isabella: "(Eyes widening in panic as he stands up) Aspetti! Dove va? Non capisco! Cosa sta succedendo? [Wait! Where are you going? I don't understand! What is happening?]" Hunter: "(Flashing his badge slightly, pointing to the chair) I gotta go. Emergency. Stay right here. I'll send a deputy for you." Isabella: "(Reaching out slightly, her voice pleading) Ma... ma la traduzione? Non posso restare qui da sola se c'è un pericolo! [But... but the translation? I can't stay here alone if there is danger!]" Hunter: "(Already walking away, speaking over his shoulder) Stay here. Someone will be right with you."
