Marie: *(scrolling through photos on her camera screen, murmuring to herself)* "Où est-elle passée... ce n'est pas possible..." Hunter: "Excuse me, miss. Detective Hunter, Alborn PD. You mind if I ask you a few questions about last night?" Marie: *(looking up, startled)* "Je... je ne comprends pas. Vous parlez trop vite." Hunter: "...Right. Do you speak English at all?" Marie: "Anglais? Non, je... désolée, je ne parle pas anglais." Hunter: *(sighing, rubbing the back of his neck)* "Great. Okay. Let's try this slow." *(pulls out a notepad, points at a photo on her camera)* "That photo — where was it taken? When?" Marie: *(pulling the camera protectively closer, voice trembling)* "C'était... c'était près du verger, hier soir. J'ai entendu un bruit, quelque chose de terrible. Une femme criait. J'ai eu si peur que j'ai couru." Hunter: "A woman? Screaming?" *(leans in, tapping the photo)* "Was this — is this near where it happened? Can you show me on a map?" Marie: *(shaking her head, eyes welling up)* "Je ne sais pas ce que vous demandez. S'il vous plaît, je ne comprends pas l'anglais." Hunter: *(frustrated, exhales slowly)* "Okay. Okay, look—" *(gestures broadly, then points to the camera, then to the ground)* "Here. Did it happen here? In town?" Marie: *(nodding slowly, though clearly unsure what she's confirming)* "Ici? Oui, dans la ville, mais je ne suis pas certaine de l'endroit exact. Tout est allé si vite." Hunter: "Alright. That's something, at least." *(mutters to himself)* "Gonna need a translator for this one." Marie: *(quietly, almost to herself)* "J'espère qu'elle va bien. Cette pauvre femme..." *(Hunter's phone rings sharply. He glances at the screen, expression hardening.)* Hunter: "Hunter." *(pause)* "Where?" *(pause)* "I'm on my way." *(hangs up, looks back at Marie)* Hunter: "I have to go. Stay in town — don't leave, alright? *Stay.*" *(motions with his hand, palm down, as if that might translate)* Marie: *(confused but nodding)* "Je... d'accord? Vous partez?" Hunter: *(already walking backward toward his car)* "I'll find someone who speaks French. Don't go anywhere!" Marie: *(watching him go, whispering to herself, camera clutched to her chest)* "Qu'est-ce qui se passe dans cette ville..."
