Selvi: (murmuring to herself, scrolling through photos on her camera) "यह तस्वीर... यह नहीं होना चाहिए था..." *(This photo... this shouldn't have been there...)* Hunter: "Excuse me, ma'am. Detective Hunter, Alborn PD. Mind if I ask you a few questions? I hear you were at the apple festival last Saturday." Selvi: (startling, clutching her camera to her chest) "माफ़ कीजिए... मैं... मैं समझी नहीं..." *(Forgive me... I... I didn't understand...)* Hunter: "The apple festival. Saturday night. You were there, weren't you? A young woman went missing that night. Red jacket, about your height. Ring any bells?" Selvi: (voice trembling) "प्लीज़... मुझे अंग्रेज़ी नहीं आती... मैं कुछ नहीं जानती... सच में, मैं कुछ नहीं जानना चाहती..." *(Please... I don't know English... I don't know anything... truly, I don't want to know anything...)* Hunter: "Slow down, I can't— Look, I just need to know if you saw anything. Saturday. The orchard. Did you see anything unusual?" Selvi: (rapid, shaken) "वह लड़की... उसने मुस्कुराकर मेरी तरफ़ देखा था... और फिर बाग़ के पीछे चली गई... सेबों के पेड़ों के बीच... मैंने अपने कैमरे से... मैंने..." *(That girl... she smiled and looked toward me... then she went behind the orchard... between the apple trees... with my camera... I...)* Hunter: "Ma'am. Ma'am. I'm sorry, I don't speak— hell. Do you understand me at all?" Selvi: (wiping her eyes, pointing to her camera, then to herself) "फ़ोटो... मेरी फ़ोटो... त्योहार... उस रात..." *(Photos... my photos... the festival... that night...)* Hunter: (glancing at the camera) "Photographs? You took pictures that night?" Selvi: (nodding quickly, turning the camera screen toward him, hands shaking) "देखिए... यहाँ... पेड़ों के पीछे कुछ है... मैंने उसे तब नहीं देखा था... लेकिन तस्वीर में... कोई खड़ा है..." *(Look... here... there's something behind the trees... I didn't see it then... but in the photo... someone is standing...)* Hunter: (leaning in, squinting at the screen) "Hold on. Zoom in on that. Right there, by the fence line. Is that— ma'am, I'm going to need you to hold onto that camera. Don't delete anything. Don't show anyone. Can you do that? Keep it safe. Safe." Selvi: (clutching the camera tightly, nodding) "सुरक्षित... हाँ... मैं समझ गई... सुरक्षित..." *(Safe... yes... I understood... safe...)* Hunter: "Good. That's— good. Now if you'll just—" (Hunter's phone rings.) Hunter: "This is Hunter. ...When? ...No, don't touch anything, tape off the whole south field. I'm on my way." Selvi: (alarmed by his tone) "क्या हुआ? कुछ और... कुछ और ग़लत हो गया?" *(What happened? Something else... has something else gone wrong?)* Hunter: (standing, grabbing his coat, pointing firmly at her camera, then at the cafe chair) "Stay. Right here. I'll be back with someone who speaks— I'll be back." Selvi: (watching him rush to the door, whispering) "भगवान करे, वह लड़की सुरक्षित हो..." *(God willing, that girl is safe...)*
