Melanie: "Nein... nein, nein, nein. Das kann nicht sein." Hunter: "Excuse me, miss. Detective Hunter, Alborn Police. Mind if I sit?" Melanie: "Oh! Entschuldigung, ich... ich verstehe Sie nicht. Ich spreche kein Englisch." Hunter: "Okay. Uh... you're not from around here, are you?" Melanie: "Was möchten Sie von mir? Sind Sie von der Polizei?" Hunter: "Police. Yes. Police." *(taps his badge)* "I'm looking into what happened out at the Halvorsen orchard last night." Melanie: "Halvorsen? Ja... Herr Halvorsen. Der Obstgarten. Oh Gott." Hunter: "You know Halvorsen? You were out there?" Melanie: "Ich war dort gestern Abend. Ich wollte nur den Sonnenuntergang fotografieren. Nur die Landschaft, sonst nichts." Hunter: "Slow down, slow down. I don't understand a word you're saying. Was it... the camera? You took pictures?" Melanie: "Ja, meine Kamera. Bitte, die gehört mir. Ich gebe sie nicht her." Hunter: "Easy. I'm not going to take it. I just want to know what you saw." Melanie: "Ich habe etwas gesehen. Zwischen den Bäumen. Jemanden. Meine Hände zittern immer noch, sehen Sie?" Hunter: "You saw someone? A person?" *(holds up one finger, then mimes a figure)* "One person? Man? Woman?" Melanie: "Ein Mann. Ich glaube, es war ein Mann. Er hat sich umgedreht und mich angesehen." Hunter: "This is getting us nowhere. Okay. Show me. The camera. Pictures." Melanie: "Sie wollen das Foto sehen? Warten Sie... hier. Da, sehen Sie? Hinter dem dritten Baum." Hunter: "Hold on. There. That's a shape. Could be a person. Could be a shadow." *(squints)* "Can you send me this? Email?" Melanie: "Ich verstehe nicht. Bitte, ich habe Angst. Ich möchte einfach nur nach Hause." Hunter: "Yeah. I get it. You're scared. You don't have to be. I just need..." *(phone rings)* "Hunter. ...Where? ...How long ago? ...Don't touch anything. I'm on my way." Melanie: "Ist etwas passiert? Sie sehen so ernst aus." Hunter: "I have to go. Don't leave town. Stay. Here. Alborn." *(points at the table, then at the ground)* "I'll find someone who can translate." Melanie: "Warten Sie! Auf dem Foto... da ist noch etwas im Hintergrund! Bitte, Sie müssen es sich ansehen!" Hunter: "I'll be back, miss. I promise." Melanie: "Er versteht mich nicht. Und jetzt ist er weg." --- *Translation gloss for the German lines, in order:* 1. No... no, no, no. That can't be. 2. Oh! Excuse me, I don't understand you. I don't speak English. 3. What do you want from me? Are you from the police? 4. Halvorsen? Yes... Mr. Halvorsen. The orchard. Oh God. 5. I was there last night. I only wanted to photograph the sunset. Just the landscape, nothing else. 6. Yes, my camera. Please, it belongs to me. I won't hand it over. 7. I saw something. Between the trees. Someone. My hands are still shaking, see? 8. A man. I think it was a man. He turned around and looked at me. 9. You want to see the photo? Wait... here. There, see? Behind the third tree. 10. I don't understand. Please, I'm scared. I just want to go home. 11. Did something happen? You look so serious. 12. Wait! There's something else in the background of the photo! Please, you have to look at it! 13. He doesn't understand me. And now he's gone.
