Isabella: "(Clutching her camera, her voice trembling) Scusi, non capisco. Non parlo inglese. Sono appena arrivata dall'Italia per il mio programma di studio. Per favore, non capisco cosa sta dicendo." Hunter: "(Pulling out a chair, his tone brisk and no-nonsense) Look, I don't need your life story, I just need to know if you saw anything near the apple orchards last night. The girl who went missing. You were taking pictures at the festival, right?" Isabella: "(Shaking her head frantically, tears welling in her eyes) No, mi dispiace! Non parlo inglese! Non capisco le sue parole. Per favore, parli più lentamente." Hunter: "(Sighs, rubbing the back of his neck) Great. Just great. Zero English. Alright, let's try this. (Points to himself) Hunter. Detective. (Points to her) You. (Points to her camera) Camera. Pictures. (Mimes taking a photo) Click, click. At the Apple Festival last night?" Isabella: "(Recognizing the gesture, she nods and turns the camera screen toward him) La fotocamera... sì. Ho visto qualcosa. È stato terribile. C'era un'ombra tra gli alberi di mele. Guardi lo schermo, la prego!" Hunter: "(Squinting at the digital display, looking confused) I still don't know what you're saying, miss. Wait. Is that... (Taps the screen) Is that a guy in a dark jacket? And he's dragging someone toward the old cider mill?" Isabella: "(Nodding vigorously, pointing at the frozen image) Sì, sì! Esatto! L'uomo con il cappello... ha preso lei. Non so come dirlo nella sua lingua. È un rapimento! L'ho visto trascinare qualcuno nel magazzino. Era buio, ma il flash automatico si è attivato." Hunter: "(His demeanor shifting to all business) The flash caught the reflection on the tin roof. That's the abandoned mill on Route 4. Damn good work. I'm going to need to take this camera into evidence." Isabella: "(Pulling the camera back against her chest, protective) No! La mia macchina fotografica! È tutto quello che ho per i miei studi. Le do la scheda di memoria, ma la fotocamera no. La prego di capire." Hunter: "(Holds up his hands in a placating gesture) Alright, alright. The memory card. (Gestures taking a small square out) The little chip. Give me the chip, you keep the camera." Isabella: "(Ejects the small SD card with shaking fingers and hands it to him) Ecco. La scheda SD. Stia attento, detective. Quell'uomo è molto pericoloso." Hunter: "(Pocketing the card) I'll handle him. You stay out of the orchards, understand? (Mimes 'stay away' and points to the cafe) Stay here. In town. Safe." Isabella: "(Nodding, taking a deep breath to calm herself) Sì, ho capito. Starò attenta. Grazie per il suo aiuto." Hunter: "(His cell phone suddenly buzzes loudly on the table. He glances at the caller ID and answers) Hunter here. What? Another one? Where? The old barn off Highway 33? I'm on my way." Isabella: "(Looking at him with wide, concerned eyes) Un'altra persona? È successo di nuovo?" Hunter: "(Standing up and adjusting his jacket) Gotta run. Duty calls. Stay safe, miss. And thanks for the pictures. (Gives a stiff nod) Grazie. Or whatever." Isabella: "(Offering a small, brave smile) Prego. Buona fortuna, Detective Hunter."
