Isabella: “No, no—non era una festa. C’era qualcuno nel frutteto.” (No, no—it wasn’t part of the festival. Someone was in the orchard.) Hunter: “I’m sorry. I don’t speak Italian. Give me a moment.” Hunter: “My phone will translate. I’m Detective Hunter. I’m asking about the disappearance after the lantern walk.” Isabella: “La donna con il cappotto blu? L’ho vista vicino al vecchio ponte.” (The woman in the blue coat? I saw her near the old bridge.) Hunter: “You saw her there?” Isabella: “Sì. Stavo fotografando gli alberi. Poi ho sentito un rumore, come un ramo spezzato.” (Yes. I was photographing the trees. Then I heard a noise, like a branch snapping.) Hunter: “Did you see anyone with her?” Isabella: “Non lo so. C’era una luce tra gli alberi. Quando ho guardato di nuovo, lei non c’era più.” (I don’t know. There was a light among the trees. When I looked again, she was gone.) Hunter: “Show me the pictures.” Isabella: “Questa è prima. E questa è dopo.” (This one is before. And this one is after.) Hunter: “Wait. Zoom in on that.” Isabella: “La figura? Non l’avevo vista sullo schermo.” (The figure? I didn’t see it on the screen.) Hunter: “Someone’s standing at the edge of the bridge. Can you tell who it is?” Isabella: “No. Ma guarda qui—la luce è dall’altra parte del fiume.” (No. But look here—the light is on the other side of the river.) Hunter: “You’re right. That doesn’t match the reflection.” Isabella: “C’è qualcos’altro. Una striscia rossa, vicino al sentiero.” (There’s something else. A red strip, near the path.) Hunter: “A scarf, maybe. Did you see it that night?” Isabella: “No. L’ho notata solo adesso. Mi dispiace. Avrei dovuto dirlo prima.” (No. I only noticed it now. I’m sorry. I should have said something sooner.) Hunter: “You didn’t know what you had. This helps.” Isabella: “La donna è viva?” (Is the woman alive?) Hunter: “We’re still looking. I can’t promise more than that.” Isabella: “Allora prendi la macchina fotografica. Ti mostro dove stavo.” (Then take the camera. I’ll show you where I was standing.) Hunter: “I’d like that. But I have to go—dispatch just called. Another person’s missing.” Isabella: “Un’altra persona?” (Another person?) Hunter: “Yes. Stay here, and don’t go back to the bridge alone. I’ll come find you.” Isabella: “Aspetta—la striscia rossa… credo di averla già vista.” (Wait—the red strip… I think I’ve seen it before.) Hunter: “Where?” Isabella: “Sulla porta del vecchio capanno delle mele.” (On the door of the old apple shed.) Hunter: “Don’t move. I’ll be back.”
