Maria: *(murmuring to herself, scrolling through her camera)* "No puede ser... esto no estaba aquí anoche..." Hunter: "Excuse me, miss. Mind if I sit? Name's Hunter. I'm a detective looking into some disappearances around town." *(slides into the seat across from her)* Maria: *(startled, clutching her camera to her chest)* "¿Qué? ¿Quién es usted? Yo no he hecho nada—" Hunter: "Whoa, easy. I'm not here to bother you. I just have a few questions about something that happened by the old mill two nights ago." Maria: *(eyes wide, shaking her head)* "No le entiendo. No hablo inglés. Por favor..." Hunter: *(pauses, frowning)* "...You don't speak English. Great. Just my luck." *(rubs the back of his neck)* "Okay. Slow. The mill?" *(gestures vaguely toward the window)* "Did you see anything?" Maria: *(catching the word, her face goes pale)* "El molino. Sí. Yo estaba allí. Vi algo... había luces, y un hombre, y luego—" *(her voice trembles, hands shaking)* "Tengo miedo. Lo tengo en la cámara." Hunter: "Hey, hey—you're shaking. Something scared you, didn't it." *(leans in, softer now)* "The camera. Can I see?" Maria: *(hesitates, then hugs the camera tighter)* "No sé si debería... ¿y si me pasa algo a mí también?" Hunter: "I don't understand a word, but I get the feeling you saw something nobody was supposed to see." *(sighs)* "Look, I want to help. Help. You. Understand?" *(points to himself, then to her)* Maria: *(studying his face, slowly nodding)* "Ayuda... sí. Necesito ayuda." Hunter: "There we go. Something we both—" *(Hunter's phone buzzes loudly. He glances at the screen, jaw tightening.)* Hunter: "Dispatch. Of course." *(answers)* "Yeah, this is Hunter. ...Where? ...When did the call come in?" *(stands abruptly, knocking the chair)* "Copy. I'm on my way." Maria: *(alarmed, half-rising)* "¿Se va? ¡No, espere! ¡Hay algo que tiene que ver!" Hunter: "I'm sorry, I have to go. There's been another one." *(fishes a card from his pocket and presses it into her hand)* "My number. Find someone who speaks Spanish, call me. Okay? Call." *(mimes a phone to his ear)* Maria: *(looking down at the card, then up at him desperately)* "Por favor, no me deje sola con esto..." Hunter: *(already backing toward the door)* "I'll be back. I promise. Stay safe, alright?" Maria: *(quietly, to the empty seat as the door swings shut)* "...Tenga cuidado, detective. Lo que vi no era humano."
