Maria: (in Spanish, troubled) "¿Perdón? No entiendo. No hablo inglés. ¿Habla usted español? Por favor, no me hable tan rápido." (Translation: "Sorry? I don't understand. I don't speak English. Do you speak Spanish? Please, don't speak so fast.") Hunter: (in English) "Excuse me, ma’am. I’m Detective Hunter, Alborn Police. I need to ask you about Saturday night. A man named Wayne Dobbs disappeared after the apple festival. Did you see anything?" Maria: (in Spanish, shaken) "No entiendo. No hablo inglés. Soy de España. Estoy de intercambio. Solo hablo español. Lo siento." (Translation: "I don't understand. I don't speak English. I'm from Spain. I'm on an exchange. I only speak Spanish. I'm sorry.") Hunter: (in English) "I didn't catch any of that. Ma’am, do you speak English? English? No? Okay. I don’t speak Spanish, not a word, so we’re off to a fantastic start." Maria: (in Spanish, troubled, holding up her camera) "Sí, la cámara. Tomaba fotos del paisaje por el huerto, cerca del molino. Vi una camioneta blanca. Un hombre salió corriendo. Luego, nada. Se esfumó. Me asusté mucho. Mire la foto, por favor." (Translation: "Yes, the camera. I was taking landscape photos by the orchard, near the mill. I saw a white van. A man ran out. Then, nothing. He vanished. I got very scared. Look at the photo, please.") Hunter: (in English) "Right. Still nothing. Okay. Camera." (He points to the camera and mimes taking a picture.) "Saturday night. The apple festival. Wayne Dobbs disappeared. He’s the missing man. Did you see him? Yes or no?" Maria: (in Spanish, shaking her head, then nodding urgently) "Sí, sí. La camioneta blanca. El hombre… creo que era él. Pero no estoy segura. No entiendo sus preguntas. La foto es del sábado, después del desfile. Había niebla. Luego escuché un ruido y… nada." (Translation: "Yes, yes. The white van. The man… I think it was him. But I'm not sure. I don't understand your questions. The photo is from Saturday, after the parade. There was fog. Then I heard a noise and… nothing.") Hunter: (in English) "Okay, okay. You're upset. I get that. But I can't understand a word. You said something about a man running? Show me. Point. Did you see him get into a van? A white van?" (He points to the image on the camera screen.) "This guy? This the missing man? Yes or no, just nod." Maria: (in Spanish, frightened) "Sí, escribir. La matrícula… no la recuerdo toda. Pero la camioneta… blanca. Quizás en la foto. Un momento, busco un bolígrafo." (Translation: "Yes, write. The license plate… I don't remember all of it. But the van… white. Maybe in the photo. One moment, I look for a pen.") Hunter: (in English) "Fog. Noise. White van. All right, that's something. Did you see a license plate? Write it down. Write. Please, write the numbers." (He mimes writing on his palm.) Hunter: (into phone) "Hunter. … Another one near the orchard? … Copy that. I’m on my way." Hunter: (to Maria) "I’ve got to go. Stay right here. Do not leave this café. Understand? Stay." Maria: (in Spanish, calling after him, frightened) "¡Espere! ¡No me deje! No entiendo. ¿Adónde va? Tengo miedo. ¿Y si vuelven? Por favor…" (Translation: "Wait! Don't leave me! I don't understand. Where are you going? I'm afraid. What if they come back? Please…") Hunter: (pausing at the door, no-nonsense) "Stay. That’s an order."
