Isabella: "No, no, no. The pictures were here. I saw them this morning." Hunter: "Isabella?" Isabella: "Sì? I mean—yes?" Hunter: "Detective Hunter. I’m asking about what happened at the apple festival last night." Isabella: "Il festival? What about it?" Hunter: "The lights went out near the orchard. A man disappeared while everyone was trying to find their way back to the square. You were there, weren’t you?" Isabella: "I was taking photographs. The lanterns, the trees, the people dancing. Then everything went dark." Hunter: "Did you see the man leave?" Isabella: "No. I heard someone calling. Then a crash. I turned on my camera, but—" Hunter: "But what?" Isabella: "The photograph is wrong. Look." Hunter: "I’m afraid I don’t understand." Isabella: "This is the path behind the cider tent. It was empty when I took the picture. Empty. But look at the window." Hunter: "I see a reflection." Isabella: "Not a reflection. A person. He is standing inside the tent, watching the path." Hunter: "You’re sure?" Isabella: "I am sure. And now the photograph is gone from my camera." Hunter: "Gone?" Isabella: "I opened the folder this morning. It was there. Now it is not. I did not erase it." Hunter: "Did anyone else handle the camera?" Isabella: "No. I keep it with me. Always." Hunter: "I’ll need to see the rest of your pictures. And I’ll need you to show me exactly where you were standing." Isabella: "I can show you. But I do not want to go back there alone." Hunter: "You won’t. I’ll come with you." Isabella: "You believe me?" Hunter: "I believe you saw something that frightened you. We’ll find out what it was." Isabella: "Thank you. I am sorry—I do not understand all your words." Hunter: "And I don’t understand any of yours. We’ll manage." Isabella: "You have a phone. Perhaps you can use the words inside it?" Hunter: "A translation app. Good idea." Isabella: "I will speak slowly." Hunter: "And I’ll try not to ask questions faster than it can keep up." Isabella: "That would help." Hunter: "Isabella, I need to take this." Isabella: "Your phone?" Hunter: "Dispatch. Hello? ...Yes. Where? All right. I’m on my way." Isabella: "Something happened?" Hunter: "Another disappearance. I have to go." Isabella: "At the orchard?" Hunter: "They didn’t say. Stay here, and don’t delete anything from that camera." Isabella: "I will not." Hunter: "I’ll be back as soon as I can." Isabella: "Detective Hunter—be careful." Hunter: "I will."
