Sahwit is seriously starting to fall apart here. He's confused about the
mysterious voice that said the time too. Phoenix is sure he really does
know about it, though. The Judge will ask for yet another testimony.
------------------------------------~Sahwit's Testimony-Hearing the Time~
-------------------------------------Actually, I didn't "hear" the time...I "saw" it!
-There was a table clock in the apartment, wasn't there!
-Yeah, the murder weapon! The killer used it to hit the victim!
-That must have been what I saw.
Sahwit is becoming less talkative. Press the first statement. Seems odd
that a table clock hasn't been mentioned yet. Press the third statement,
the one about the murder weapon, afterwards. The heck? Since when was that
statue actualy a table clock? Fairly obvious-present the Statue at this
statement.
Phoenix will bring up the point that The Thinker statue isn't a clock. So
how DID Sahwit know the time? He still insists its a damn clock. Payne
soon confirms it actually is a clock. All you need to do is flip the neck
a little and it will speak the time.
Crap. Sahwit wasn't lying there. The Judge will ask if you have an problems
with this testimony still. Answer "Yes". After all, it could only be known
this was a clock if the witness held it. However, he never went into the
apartment. Phoenix will say Sahwit knew it was a clock for one of two
reasons. Choose "Went into the apartment".
Phoenix is now pressuring Sahwit and accusing him of being the one who
killed Cindy. By hitting her with the clock, it made the statue speak the
time. That voice burned through his mind. Sahwit spazzes out, flings his
toupee at Phoenix, and starts screaming. The Judge asks how you can prove
he heard the clock. Choose "Try sounding the clock". The clock will respond
"I think it's 8:25". Most certainly intriguing. 8:25 is a 3 hour difference
from the current time, 11:25.
However...so what? What's the three hour difference have to with anything?
Was ir really like that the day of the murder? Before the verdict is called
Mia will step in and exclaim to Phoenix to get a hold on this case. He can
prove the clock was three hours slow. Choose "Yes" when asked if you know
why it was slow. Time to pull out the final blow-present the Passport.
You will see that the clock had been set to Paris's time zone-9 hours
ahead. The clock never did say AM or PM so it could have been either way.
Since the victim never reset the clock, it stayed that way through the
murder.
And then Sahwit collapses. He gets arrested right away, and the Judge is
ready to pass his verdict. Larry Butz is "Not Guilty"! Whoo! Not sure
why there is cheering and confetti, but who cares?
----------------------------------------------
Date-August 3, 2:32 PM
Location-District Court; Defendent Lobby No. 2
---------------------------------------------Mia will congratulate you on your first court victory. Shame Larry isn't
feeling the same way. He's still as glum as ever despite being declared
not guilty. Apparently he can't stop think his girlfriend didn't care
about him. Mia calls Larry "Harry" (combine that with his last name...),
get a chuckle out of that.
Phoenix of course gets no credit from Larry, who is kissing up to Mia. He
gives her The Thinker as a keepsake. Mia will mention that Cindy actually
did care about Larry and you have the evidence to prove it. Present The
Thinker once again. For her to carry that thing everywhere, she obviously
cared about him.
...and that's it. Good job solving the first case.
==========================================
~6.Episode Two-Turnabout Sisters~
==========================================
The opening cutscene this time around is a bit different than what it was
last time around. It starts with a phone conversation between Mia and her
younger sister Maya. Mia is requesting that Maya to hold a piece of
evidence for her. It just so happens that it's The Thinker statue again.
Mainly because she's worried something may happen to the evidence. However,
Mia took out the clockwork in the statue in order to make room for some
important papers that is to be used as evidence in an upcoming trial. The
conversation gets recorded on September 5, 9:27 AM.
===================
Day 1-Investigation
===================
-----------------------------Date-September 5, 8:57 PM
Location-Fey & Co. Law Offices
-----------------------------Someone is in the room ahead of you. Somebody is talking to Mia, demanding
something about some papers. Then, in order for this to remain a secret
the man picks up The Thinker and whams it through Mia's skull. Once again
you gets to see the murderer's face. Kinda creepy. Before dying, Mia
mutters "Red....White....Blue". You'll understand this cryptic message
later through the case.
-----------------------------Date-September 5, 9:08 PM
Location-Fey & Co. Law Offices
-----------------------------And here comes Phoenix. Apparently, Mia, her sister, and Phoenix were
planning to go out to dinner together. At that moment, Phoenix smells
blood. He becomes a bit worried at what has happened. You will be
introduced to the investigation mode now. You have only two options here.
You can choose Examine to search the room for clues. There's nothing of
interest here, though. You can also Move to a different location. Choose
Move and go to the only other place available, the Office.
Phoenix clearly smells blood in here, but not before hearing someone
crying right next to Mia's fallen body. The girl will stand up, and you'll
inquiry who she is. She'll pass out after that. Mia's body is still warm
up until where you touch her, then the heat escapes all too quickly. Mia
must have been killed very recently.
Choose the Examine the room. Choose the examine Mia's body first. She was
struck on the head by a blunt object. The Thinker lies next to her. Once
again, THE THINKER is added to the Court Record. Near Mia's body as well
are some glass light shards from a stand that must have shattered from
this incident. GLASS SHARDS are added to the Court Record. Finally,
Phoenix will notice a piece of paper that is lying near Mia's hands. It
has the word "Maya" written upon it, and from the blood on her finger it
appears that Mia must have been the one who wrote the message on the paper.
Choose to examine the piece of paper on the ground to confirm these
suspicions. You will notice that this paper is actually a department store
receipt dated September 4. RECEIPT is added to the Court Record. Phoenix
will now mention he should call the police. Examine the phone on Mia's
desk. Problem is, the phone is missing some screws and won't work. The
murderer must not have wanted anybody calling the police.
As if this can't get any worse, a loud
woman looking out of her window across
apparently seeing Phoenix and assuming
you can do about her, or anything else
Law Offices (the previous room).
The girl will have woken up and will talk to Phoenix now. She will explain
that she is Maya Fey, Mia's sister. It is probably her name that is written
on the receipt that Mia wrote. Two new options open up. You can Talk to
Maya on certain topics, or you can Present her with items from the Court
Record in hopes that she will comment about something. Choose to talk to
her first about "What happened?".
Maya came into the office not too long ago and apparently Mia was already
dead. This pretty much rules Maya out as the murderer. Ask about "You and
the Chief" next. Maya will confirm that she is Mia's younger sister. She
will mention she was here this late at night only because she was needed
to hold a piece of evidence for Mia. She'll note it was a clock, The
Thinker.
Don't feel too bad about doing this, but present the Receipt to her. Maya
will exclaim why Mia would have written her name on this receipt. Real
smart Phoenix.
Just then, you will hear the police coming up to the office building.
Detective Dick Gumshoe will race up to intervene you guys. Get used to
Gumshoe, you'll be seeing him. A lot. He'll mention that the woman you saw
earlier did phone the police and they ran down here as soon as possible.
Gumshoe will then find the Receipt that has the name "Maya" written on it.
He'll ask Maya if that's her name, and of course she will say it is. He
will note Mia wrote it in her own blood. Based on this evidence, Gumshoe
will arrest Maya immediately and take her down to the Detention Center.
Phoenix will feel awful at these turn of events. He gets taken in for
questioning along with Maya, unable to sleep all through the night. He
must talk to Maya as soon as possible in order to get information on this
case.
----------------------------------------Date-September 6, 9:07 AM
Location-Detention Center; Visitor's Room
----------------------------------------It's depressing to see Maya locked up like this. She will ask if you are
going to be her attorney. Be a good guy and choose "Of course I will".
Maya probably wasn't expecting you to say yes so she appears even further
depressed. She'll explain there's no way anybody could believe her case.
She doubts even Phoenix believes her, seeing as you saw her next to Mia's
dead body.
Maya also says the Mia talked about you in another phone conversation.
Mia said that you performed well in court, but she said you still need
more experience, several years worth, before you can tackle bigger cases.
Mia also said not to hire Phoenix unless she wants to be declared "Guilty".
(Good thing Mia's dead or Phoenix would blow his top!). Phoenix does want
to do something, though. Now you can talk to Maya. Start off with "Maya"
to talk about her outfit. She says she's an acolyte, or basically a spirit
medium.
Talk about "The day of the crime" next. She says she got a call from Mia
earlier that morning to pick up a piece of evidence for a trial. She
forgets the details of the conversation, but remembers that she recorded
the conversation on her cell phone. Talk about "Your cell phone" next of
course. Phoenix will request that he hears it right now. However, Gumshoe
took away her cell phone when she was arrested. Maya will write you a note
to the detective requesting that her cell phone gets returned to her.
MAYA'S MEMO is added to the Court Record.
You can talk about "The day of the crime" again. Maya will tell it a bit
differently, saying how she smelt blood before entering. Finally, mention
"Spirit mediums". The entire Fey family, more so the women, have some sort
of connections to the spirit world. Yes, Mia was also a spirit medium.
Creepy stuff. She decided she would rather be a lawyer than a full
fledged medium, though, and came here. Maya's powers aren't strong enough
yet, so she is unable to contact Mia's spirit and ask who killed her. Boy,
what an eays case this would be if we could.
Maya will ask you to go to the address of a famous lawyer. Mia said to go
to him if she was ever in trouble. Don't be an ass, choose to "Accept" her
offer to do this favor. Trial begins tomorrow so you have little time to
get this case together, or the lawyer that hopefully can do this case at
least. Move to Grossberg Law Offices now.
-----------------------------Date-September 6
Location-Grossberg Law Offices
-----------------------------Well...there's nothing here. Grossberg is gone for now and won't be back
until later. Might as well get back Maya's cell phone now. Head to Fey &
Co. Law Offices.

it. Something is in there, but until she leaves we can't find out. Ugh.
You can try talking to April, but she will just exclaim that if you want
any info you will have to wait until court tomorrow. What a useless pile
of...
In any case, let's check in on Grossberg and see if he's back now.
-----------------------------Date-September 6
Location-Grossberg Law Offices
-----------------------------Grossberg will suddenly appear. He'll recongnize you as a lawyer right
away. As soon as Phoenix mentions Maya, Grossberg will change is attitude
towards the situation. Infact, he instantly refuses to take on the Maya's
case despite the fact you haven't even asked him yet. This sure isn't a
good spot to be in.
Talk to Grossberg about "Your refusal". Pheonix will mention Maya is Mia's
sister, and she trusted he would help Maya out. Phoenix says he would try
elsewhere, but Grossberg steps in and says that's not going to happen. No
lawyer will dare step in and take this case. Grossberg keeps hiding the
reason why, though. Talk to him about "Mia" next. Mia worked with Grossberg
quite a while ago. He was her mentor. Mia left, with some mission in her
eyes. Quite an amount of determination.
Finally, bring up "That painting". As ugly as it is, Grossberg likes it.
He has no need to part with it for no matter the price put on it. There
isn't much else you can really do with this geezer for now. We need to tell
Maya the bad news...somehow.
----------------------------------------Date-September 6, 3:42 PM
Location-Detention Center; Visitor's Room
----------------------------------------Phoenix will say that Maya shouldn't use Grossberg as her defense attorney.
We are still at square one, though. Somebody still has to help her in
court. Talk about the only new option available, "Your family". Maya's
father has been dead for a while and she has no idea where her mother is.
Talk about "Your mother" to dive deeper into this puzzle. The women in her
family have been mediums for generations. Maya's mother was involved in an
incident. Some man ruined her mother's life. She disappeared after that.
Mia decided to become a lawyer several years after that, possibly to find
out who did this.
Talk about "Your mother's enemy" next. In the incident, there were no leads
and the police had to resort to using a spirit medium to talk to the
murder victim. The case ended up getting solved, but the man declared
guilty was really innocent. The spirit had lied for some reason. This
incident was dealt in secrecy, but somebody spilled the beans. Her mother
was mocked far and wide. Maya mumbles "White" at the end of her speech.
That was the man who ruined her mother's life. It is 4:00 after this, and
you should choose to "Defend Maya". When asked why, "A can't abandon you"
is the best response.
One more problem remains-what the hell is inside the drawer in April May's
room? Before leaving, present Maya's Cell Phone to her. She wants to hear
Mia's voice once more. After you cheer her up (or make her sadder, depends
on the perspective), head back to the Gatewater Hotel.
----------------------------------Date-September 6
Location-Gatewater Hotel - Room 303
----------------------------------Once you are back in the hotel, the Bellboy will appear in April's room.
April isn't in the room right now so it's a better time than ever to
investigate the drawer. The Bellboy asks that you give April this message:
"Mr. White of Bluecorp called". White? Is this a connection to who Maya
mentioned earlier?
In any case, examine the screwdriver sticking out of the drawer again.
Phoenix will find none other than a wiretap inside the drawer. For those
who don't know, this thing is used to tap into phone lines so you can
hear private conversations without the speakers realizing it. What is April
doing with this thing anyways? WIRETAP is added to the Court Record.
None too late, Aprile will be returning to her room. Cheese it out of
there and get ready for court!
===========
Day 2-Trial
===========
---------------------------------------Date-September 7, 10:00 AM
Location-District Court; Courtroom No. 1
---------------------------------------No wasting time; we enter court right away. Edgeworth will start off saying
there is decisive proof Maya killed Mia, as well as a witness who saw the
entire thing. Firstly, Edgeworth calls Detective Gumshoe to the stand. He
begins by presenting a floor map of Fey & Co. Law Offices. FLOOR PLANS are
added to the Court Record. Gumshoe claims he has "hard evidence" proving
Maya commited the murder.
--------------------------------------~Gumshoe's Testimony-Maya Fey's Arrest~
---------------------------------------As soon as the phone call came in, I rushed to the scene!
-There were two people there already:
-The defendant, Ms. Maya Fey, and the lawyer, Mr. Phoenix Wright.
-I immediately arrested Ms. Maya Fey!
-Why? We had a witness account describing her!
-The witness saw Ms. Maya Fey at the very moment of the murder!
Before you can cross examine Gumshoe, Maya flings a note at your head.
Whenever Mia was stumped by a testimony, she'd bluff it and press every
statement she could. Eventually the witness would crack down. Couldn't
hurt to try it, right?
The first four statements will get you nowhere by pressing them, however
the fifth, about the witness' account, is suspicious. Phoenix will say that
Maya was arrested from "hard evidence". Why is one person's testimony hard
evidence? Too bad for Phoenix, though, Gumshoe has other means of proof.
The order of events was scrambled in his testimony, according to Gumshoe.
He is going to testify once more.
----------------------------------~Gumshoe's Testimony-Hard Evidence~
-----------------------------------After securing the suspect, I examined the scene of the crime with my own
eyes.
-I found a memo written on a piece of paper next to the victim's body!
-On it, the word "Maya" was written clearly in blood!
-Lab test results showed that the blood was the victim's!
-Also, there was blood found on the victim's finger!
-Before she died, the victim wrote the killer's name!
Press the final statement, about blood on the victim's finger. Isn't it
wierd that she would write the killer's name, especially her sister, of all
people? Clearly, something is wrong with this statement. Check out the
autopsy report. "...death was instantaneous". Kinda hard to write a note
when you die instantly, right? Present Mia's Autopsy Report.
As soon as Phoenix gets to the point of the argument, Edgeworth will
object to your little game. When asked when you got the autopsy report,
respond "The day after the murder". Sadly, Edgeworth states that report
is outdated. Edgeworth requested that a second autopsy report be made
yesterday. It reads "Death was almost immediate due to a blow from a blunt
object...but there is a possibility the victim lived for several minutes
after the blow."
Well that's not good. Edgeworth asks if you have anything to say, respond
"You're a sham, Edgeworth!" Why did Edgeworth really want a second report
made? He'll never say. Possibly this was forged evidence but we can't
prove that. AUTOPSY REPORT is updated in the Court Record.
Edgeworth will call the poor, innocent April May to testify. The audience
is on her side what with her sex appeal. This'll be a painful testimony
for Phoenix.
------------------------------------------~April May's Testimony-Witness's Testimony~
-------------------------------------------It was, like, 9:00 at night. I looked out the window, y'know!
-And then, oooh! I saw a woman with long hair being attacked!
-The one attacking her was the mousey girl sitting in the defendant's
chair!
-Then the woman, like, dodged to one side and ran away!
April still won't give in to your examination. She states that she has
seen the clock before at a store. Choose "Yes" when asked if you still
have any objections. That's impossible if you recall. Present The Thinker
once again to the Judge. The Thinker was handmade by Larry Butz. Only two
are currently in existance. One is in Phoenix's possession right now, the
other in police custody from the previous case. April says everything is
sold in stores. Yeah, right.
...and then April spazzes out and gets real mad. Scary mad. She'll regain
her composure and be asked how she knew it was a clock in the first place.
You'll need to provide evidence that April knew it was a clock in the
first place. Choose "You had heard about it". You'll need to show the proof
for this, though. Present Maya's Cell Phone once again. Part of the
conversation will be played again. Mia clearly states in the conversation
that The Thinker is a clock.
How did April hear this conversation? Present the Wiretap. It was found in
April's room after all. She must have used it to listen to Mia and Maya's
conversation. Edgeworth will object, but April's face clearly shows that
this is the truth. April decides to yell at everyone in the courtroom, how
they have no right to gang up on her like that. Too bad for her case. Then
she'll start crying hoping to get out of this alive. Ugh. Choose "You did
it, didn't you?" April will admit that she did indeed tap the phone.
She states the murder was at about 9:00 PM, and at that time she was in her
hotel room ordering room service from the Bellboy. She has a solid alibi.
She couldn't have killed Mia. You'll need to pull out something fast.
Choose to "Call the Bellboy as a witness". Perhaps he knows something.
Edgeworth will object to this idea, though. However, he'll agree on one
condition. If there's nothing wrong with the Bellboy's testimony, Maya
will be clared "Guilty" on the spot. You have no choice. "Accept the
condition". There better be something in this testimony...
--------------------------------------------~Bellboy's Testimony-Miss May's Room Service~
---------------------------------------------I am the head bellboy at the fine Gatewater Hotel, in business for four
generations!
-I believe I recieved a call after 8:00 in the evening from our guest,
Miss May.
-She asked for an ice coffee to be brought to her at 9:00, on the dot, sir.
-I brought it to her at precisely the requested time, of course.
-And I delivered the ice coffee to our guest Miss May, herself.
Crap! There's clearly no contradiction in this testimony! Of course, why
would the bellboy lie? He's not involved directly in this murder. You will
need to press the bellboy on every single statement. You won't get much
information from any of the statements, however. Once you have done this,
Phoenix will realize there's nothing wrong with this testimony. Before the
bellboy leaves you can ask one more question. "Protest" to him leaving,
then ask him about any of the three options that you are given. The
DL-6 was top-secret at the time. One person unfortunately found out about
this, however. Grossberg was forced to tell White this shocking news. White
told the media the police were using a spirit medium, and they were
mocked. They started to search for who spilt the beans. White blackmailed
Grossberg at this point. If he kept paying White, White would keep quiet
about this whole business. Before you leave, he'll note that Mia had been
keeping tabs on White for years. You may be able to find something in her
office.
-----------------------------Date-September 7
Location-Fey & Co. Law Offices
-----------------------------There's only one place in this office you could hope to find a bounty of
information. Examine the filing cabnet. You will be offered three different
sections of the files you can inspect. Start off with "A-I".
Phoenix will stop at F when he notices the file for Misty Fey. Choose to
"Read it". Misty had apparently done something terribly wrong (and we
aleady know what it is). In doing so, she mysteriously vanished. Mia
started to devote her life to find out who did this to her mother. She
used her E.S.P abilities to talk to the dead. In doing so, the names of
two people related to this incident surfaced. One of them was Marvin
Grossberg who we already know and the other is...
The record mysteriously ends there. We already know the missing person. It
is Redd White. Choose to examine the filing cabnet again, this time
choosing the "J-S" file. There's nothing relevant to this case in there,
though, so choose to "Skim" a bit of it. Phoenix will notice that the S
section has a huge file, and all of it are on suicides. The people who
killed themselves were famous in business, fortunes, politics, and so on.
Also note that Mia happened to write something on almost all of these
files. "White" is clearly written in pencil. Mia clearly thought that
White has driven all of these people to commit suicide. Phoenix finds a
highly relevant suicide and borrows a newspaper clipping of the article.
NEWSPAPER CLIPPING added to the Court Record.
Choose to "Check 'em" once more (the filing cabnet). Choose the
section left "T-Z". Phoenix will realize he should start with W
Problem is, the entire W section of the cabnet is missing! Gee,

-----------------------------------Date-September 7
Location-Bluecorp Inc.; CEO's Office
-----------------------------------White still isn't pleased with your presence. He mentions that a nasty
incident will occur if you continue to pester him. Well, we have nothing to
lose at this point. White will continue to yell at you if you try talking
to him about any subject. Present the Newspaper Clipping to him. Phoenix
will explain to White that it describes the suicide of a politician. Word
got leaked to the press about some crime he committed, then he comitted
suicide. White will ask what this has to do with him. Phoenix says he
found it in Mia's office, along with a ton of other articles with similar
stories, all marked with "White" at the top. Choose "You blackmailed him".
White isn't going to give up so easily. White will order the secretary to
escort you out of the office. You can't leave just yet, though. Yell
"You're wrong" to him. Phoenix should be going after White right now, not
the killer. Why? White is the killer of course. White will call his
secretary a second time, this time to be placed on a call to the
prosecutor's office. White has decided that he wants to testify
tomorrow in the trial. White "witnessed the murder" apparently and wants
to get Phoenix proved guilty now. He also order the police to bring Phoenix
into custody now.
Detective Gumshoe will arrive instantaniously. White will say it was
Phoenix who was the real murderer. Gumshoe will arrest you on the spot.
Time to head for the Detention Center. Of course, it's not like you have
a choice on this matter.
----------------------------------------Date-September 8, 3:37 PM
Location-Detention Center; Visitor's Room
----------------------------------------Note:I assume the date error is from a mistranslation...
Phoenix says that White is probably gonna set a trap for him. He has very
little chance of winning this case and proving White guilty. Edgeworth
will be well aware of this, he's sure. Phoenix plans on defending himself
in court. He is a defense attorney after all. Maybe he can actually win
this thing.
Maya will appear. She has been set free with the knowledge that you are
the real murderer. Phoenix will explain the story to Maya. She wants to
help somehow. It doesn't matter what you choose, but I believe "Help me
break out of here" is the funniest response.
Phoenix will explain why court is this way now. Remember, this game takes
place in the future (2016 to be exact). There's a three day limit on all
court cases. Tomorrow is day two. Either way, a verdict is more likely
than not going to be decided tomorrow. Oh dear...
===========
Day 3-Trial
===========
---------------------------------------------Date-September 9, 9:52 AM
Location-District Court; Defendant Lobby No. 1
---------------------------------------------Edgeworth will greet you before the trial begins. He'll state that whatever
White states it will be "the absolute truth". Basically, any objections you
make will be in vain. Phoenix is pretty much going to be declared guilty
by trial's end. Phoenix notes that he knows Edgeworth already. That isn't
important to this story, though. Court time!
---------------------------------------Date-September 9, 10:00 AM
Location-District Court; Courtroom No. 1
---------------------------------------Phoenix is actually going to defend himself. Good luck with that! Edgeworth
will comment there was a second witness to this crime. However, the Judge
doesn't bring up why he wasn't called in yesterday. "Objection" this
fact. Edgeworth replies White is a busy man, and that he didn't think his
testimony would be needed. Redd White gets called to the stand. After
trying to show off his gaudy jewelery, the real action begins.
-----------------------------------------~Redd White's Testimony-Witness's Account~
------------------------------------------Let's see, it was about 9:00, I believe.
-I was quietly perusifying...er, that's "reading" to you, some papers by
the window.
-Then I heard a bedlam coming from outside!
-Surprised, I turned to look at the building across the way.
-It was then I saw him:a spiky-haired man attacking a woman with long hair!
-Needless to say that man was none other than you, Mr. Lawyer!
-I called Miss May over at once. She, too, was surprised of course.
-The victim, she...she ran away, but you gave chase!
-Finally there was a terrible impaction! Then it was all over...
Damn, that's a long testimony. This testimony seems quite...factual. Start
by pressing these statements one by one. Always "Press further" when
asked to. The first statement is important. The bellboy said White wasn't
in the room at the time. White will state he was outside at the time and
couldn't have seen him anyways.
The fifth statement is the most critical one. White states that he saw a
spiky-haired man attack Mia. Funny, April stated she clearly saw a woman
attack Mia. You have no evidence for this, so press this instead. Phoenix
won't get anywhere, though. Press the next statement where he claims it
was clearly Phoenix. Phoenix brings out the contradiction here. White
claims that his eyesight, counting both eyes, is 40. Well...that STILL
gets us nowhere. White is seriously hiding the details.
The next statement that important is eighth statement, about "Phoenix"
giving chase to the victim. Notice the stammer in this statement. White
was clearly going to reveal what direction Mia ran off, but stopped himself
and changed the statement. Phoenix will demand more specific information
in this statement. He'll change this statement to...
-The victim ran to the left, and you gave chase!
That's odd. White has already contradicted April's testimony several times,
and this statement does it again. Check out May Testimony. It states "The
victim dodged an attack then ran to the right, but she was caught and
struck". Present this item at this statement.
Phoenix will explain the situation, but White won't falter and claims you
misunderstood her. Too bad you have clear evidence proving this statement.
Phoenix will present the floor plans. Had Mia run to the left, she would
be head away from the door and into a wall! There's only one way this
could be true-White was in the killer's spot. If Mia ran left from that
perspective it would make sense.
Maya will comment that White probably isn't lying. He probably did see Mia
run to the left. It is starting to make sense now. The Judge will ask you
whose statement is correct-White's or April's. We already know White is the
killer, and April was in her room, so it makes sense that both of them are
correct. Choose "Both are right".
Edgeworth will object to this ludicrious statement. He says there's no way
both witness's could possibly be correct. Phoenix will say that White must
have seen the murder firsthand from the Fey & Co. Law Offices. You will be
asked to show where White was standing to make the statement true. The
floor plans will appear. Move the cursor onto the red "K" for the killer's
spot. If you look at it from White's perspective (assuming he is the
killer for the moment), it's clearly his left, and April May's right. This
proves that both witness's are correct in their statements.
Edgeworth will object to this crazy assumption. White just now will
remember an important detail he left out in his testimony, and asks to
testify again.
---------------------------------------------~Redd White's Testimony-She Ran to the "Left"~
----------------------------------------------Miss May's testmony was correct...as was mine!
-When you first assaulted the girl, she first ran to the left.
-And then you hit her, savagely! That is what I saw.
-Next, with the last of her strength, she ran to the right.
-You chased her, and delivered the final blow.
-That is what Miss May saw.
-You see? You hit her twice!
Press White on his fifth statement, on how you chased Mia. It will do no
good, but something strikes as odd. Press White on the final statement as
well. White must have been watching both times. Odd. Doesn't the autopsy
report state that Mia was struck once by a blunt object? Present Mia's
Autopsy Report on the last statement.
Phoenix will present the evidence and White will start to fall apart. White
is starting the shut his trap. Edgeworth will object and call for a 10minute recess. Phoenix will object right away and state White is confused
mainly because he keeps lying. The crowd agrees with Phoenix to allow no
break. White is forced to testify yet again.
----------------------------------------~Redd White's Testimony-The Two Accounts~
-----------------------------------------Umm, well, see--I looked at the other window when I heard that thing fall.
-Then, the next moment, I saw Miss Mia run to the left!
---------------------------------------------Date-September 9
Location-District Court; Defendant Lobby No. 1
---------------------------------------------Phoenix will wake up and realize he is in the defendant's lobby, and soon
recall the he lost the case. Mia will appear and start talking to Phoenix,
who freaks out right away because Mia is...dead. Right? Apparently choosing
to give up in court freaked Maya out so much she was able to channel Mia
right there on the spot. She will tell you that she is in Maya's body right
now (look at the clothing) and that Maya will have no recollection of this
once she leaves. She will also say that White killed her (duh). Remember
that receipt with "Maya" written on it? White wrote that too. She will
being to your attention what's written on the other side, though.
"Amount spent:$1,000.00; Item purchased:Glass Light Stand; Date of
Purchase:September 4"
...huh? The fourth? That's the day before the murder! RECEIPT has been
updated in the Court Record. Now it is time to screw White over in court!
---------------------------------------Date-September 9, 1:16 PM
Location-District Court; Courtroom No. 1
---------------------------------------Phoenix will ask for a final chance at proving White guilty. Edgeworth will
amuse himself by allowing you this final chance. Let's get to it!
---------------------------------------~Redd White's Testimony-The Wiretapping~
----------------------------------------It was the beginning of September...the week before the murder.
-I had entered Fey & Co. Law Offices.
-Of course, I had done so to place the wiretap.
-That is when I saw this glass light stand.
You already know what to do. Present the Receipt at the first statement.
Phoenix will ask the Judge to inspect the other side of the receipt. Low
and behold, the glass light stand was purchased on September 4, the day
before the murder. The stand couldn't have existed when White alledgedly
went there.
Edgeworth will object again. You still haven't proven yourself innocent.
Edgeworth will ask the Judge for one last day of investigation in order
to create strong evidence proving Phoenix's guilt. Obviously, "Object"
to Edgeworth's request. The Judge will deny Phoenix's objection. Mia will
tell White to freeze. She will hand Phoenix a note to be read out loud.
The note contains a bunch of names written in Mia's handwriting. The list
of names is supposedly of everyone and then some that White has, or had
once been, blackmailing.
White goes completely insane at this point. Phoenix will threaten to turn
this into the police if he doesn't confess now. Of course, White has no
choice but to comply. He confesses to hitting Mia with The Thinker. That's
it! Damn good. (Side note, nobody is actually certain who the list is
referring to, but it is logical that it would be the people White has
blackmailed.)
---------------------------------------------Date-September 9, 2:24 PM
Location-District Court; Defendant Lobby No. 1
---------------------------------------------Well, another case solved. Mia can't stay in Maya's body forever so she
will be taking her leave soon. She tells you to meet her in the office
later tonight.
-----------------------------Date-September 9, 9:02 PM
Location-Fey & Co. Law Offices
-----------------------------Instead of expecting Mia to appear, Maya will come out all cheerful. She
was left a note by Mia to "take care of Phoenix". Now that Mia is gone the
company is yours. The Wright & Co. Law Offices is born. Whooo! Maya will
assist you for now on your cases.
Well, so much for a happy ending. Save the game after the final cutscene.
==========================================
~7.Episode Three-Turnabout Samurai~
==========================================
It is time to begin your third case. In the opening cutscene, you will see
what appears to be a samurai and some evil villian duking it out under the
moonlight. At the end, something tells you to "Watch the next exciting
episode". This must be some television show. I see no murder, though.
===================
Day 1-Investigation
===================
--------------------------------Date-October 14, 5:31 PM
Location-Wright & Co. Law Offices
--------------------------------A continuation of what you just saw, Maya will explain that the show is
the "Steel Samurai", the most popular kids show on television right now.
Why Maya is appealed by it is beyond comprehension. All the propaganda and
"inappropiate language" used in the show maks it funny that it is for kids.
Heh. Afterwards, Phoenix will note that it has been over a month since his
trial and he hasn't had any clients come in. He's starting to worry, but
all is not over yet!
--------------------------------Date-October 16, 8:14 AM
Location-Phoenix Wright's Bedroom
--------------------------------Early in the morning Phoenix will recieve a call from Maya. She'll say that
the Steel Samurai just got arrested. Apparently he killed the villian.
Problem is, this is real life we are talking about. The Steel Samurai
actually killed the actor who plays the villian with his signature "Samurai
Spear" weapon. Crazy. Phoenix will rush back to the office.
---------------------------------
joke. Her last name really is "Oldbag". Feel free to laugh. She'll rant
on about how lawyers have nothing to do.
Back to seriousness, as a security guard she should know some info about
the actors here. Start by talking to her about "The studios". At Global
Studios, they make children's dreams come true. She mentions that ten
years ago Global Studios was a lot more lively. Also, back then, Jack
Hammer was a big star. It wasn't long though before he was reduced to
playing as the villian.
Ask about "Will Powers" next. Oldbag will immediately start off by dissing
Powers and mentioning that playing as the Steel Samurai was his chance to
kill Hammer. That's an absurd statement realising that Powers has nothing
on bad grounds with Hammer. She thinks Powers is guilty. Press her on
"Reason for suspicion" next. Oldbag was standing in the Main Gate area from
1:00 PM to the time of rehersal, 5:00 PM. The studio in question where the
murder took place is only accessable by going through the main gate. In
such an event they would have to go through Oldbag first. Only one person
went by the Main Gate between 1:00 PM and the murder time, and that person
was Powers. She says she saw him. But didn't Powers say he was napping?
Odd contradiction...
Lastly, talk about "Mr. Hammer". Oldbag was a serious Jack Hammer fan back
in the day. He was apparently the ultimate action hero. However, there was
an incident five years ago. After that accident, Hammer went from a star to
a nobody who played the lamer villian on an action show.
Oldbag will demand a "Letter of Request" from Powers before she will let
you tour the studio at your own leisure. Head back to Powers.
-----------------------------------------Date-October 16
Location-Detention Center; Visitor's Room
-----------------------------------------Talk to Powers about "Your alibi" again. Remember, Oldbag's statement
completely blows off what Powers previously stated. Powers will state that
it was impossible for him to have gone to the studios early in the
afternoon. He's quite certain that he was sleeping the entire time. Too bad
there's no witness to account for that.
Talk about "The security lady" afterwards. Oldbag has a thing against most
people, including Powers. What a creep. Phoenix will ask if he could write
a note saying that Phoenix will represent him as his lawyer. Powers will
be glad to do so. POWERS'S REQUEST will be added to the Court Record. Head
back to Oldbag so we can shove this in her face.
---------------------------------Date-October 16
Location-Global Studios; Main Gate
---------------------------------Present Powers's Request to Oldbag. She will take it from you and confirm
the handwriting is indeed Powers'. Oldbag will grant you access the studios
but nothing else for now. She won't let you go to the employee area for,
well, obvious reasons. Maya will pick up a map from the guard station.
GUIDEMAP is added to the Court Record.
Oldbag mentioned a detective told her that nobody could be given access to
Once you get into the Employee Area you will find it quite abondoned. You
will need to examine several things in here. First of all, you will notice
that the tables are full of dirty plates. Almost all of them contain the
remains of t-bone steak. This must have been the employee's lunch on the
day of the murder. There is another thing you should note. On the left
screen (tap the button at the bottom of the touch screen or push the L
button to change screens) you will see a drainage grate on the ground.
Somebody could probably fit through here. Interesting.
Nothing else of importance is in here. Head to the Dressing Room.
-------------------------------------Date-October 16
Location-Global Studios; Dressing Room
-------------------------------------There are several interesting things you can examine in Powers' dressing
room, including the bed which confirms that someone must have slept here.
Focus in on Powers's bag on the ground near the table. You will find a
keycard inside his bag. CARDKEY will be borrowed and added to the Court
Record. It's your ticket to get inside Studio One. Head to the Studio One
Entrance.
---------------------------Date-October 16
Location-Studio One Entrance
---------------------------You can't enter the studio just yet. Examine the little doors in the
distance that reads "1st" to insert the cardkey. Head inside the studio.
------------------Date-October 16
Location-Studio One
------------------Not much of a studio to say the least. There are several things to keep in
mind that will help you for later. First, there is an outline on the ground
that marks the spot that the police found the body of Jack Hammer on the
ground. What Phoenix will realise is that there are no blood stains on the
ground. For a bloody mess that a stab through the heart would cause, there
should be some mess on the ground, right? Where could it all have gone?
You will need to examine the cameras next. Maya will get excited over
seeing them, but before long somebody will yell at you for touching them.
Penny Nichols will mention that she is a stage assitant here at Global
Studios when you meet her. Talk to her first about "The day of the crime".
Penny will state that she was in Studio One for the majority of the day
because she was the only assistant that was working the day of the murder.
She was aware an action scene was occuring in the morning as well. Powers
and Hammer were there. She went to the Employee Area for lunch, like
everyone else, and saw Hammer and Powers there. Powers went into his
dressing room and Hammer left the room. It was the last time she saw them
for the day.
Talk about "Will Powers" next. Penny cannot confirm that Powers was
actually sleeping in his dressing room the majority of the afternoon
because she didn't enter his dressing room at all that day, mainly because
she had no reason to.
After talking to her about this, Penny will mention that something has been
bothering her for a while. She will explain that some time after lunch in
the Employee Area she "sensed" that somebody that didn't work at the
studios was here. This isn't very descriptive, but it's the only lead that
you have right now. Remember, Oldbag said that everyone that comes to the
studio has to come by her...so why didn't she see this mysterious person,
if there is one at all?
Time to pay an certai old duff another visit.
---------------------------------Date-October 16
Location-Global Studios; Main Gate
---------------------------------Oldbag is still at her post. Talk to her about "Assistant's claim". Oldbag
will go berserk after realising that someone at the Studios is questioning
her authority. She will then run off to Studio One, most likely in order to
give Penny a large piece of her mind. Now that Oldbag is out of the picture
we have some time to do a little snooping around. Examine the computer
inside the guardstation. In order to access the files for the security
camera pictures you will have to insert a code. Choose "ST1-307". Once you
do this the computer will print out a single photo, pretty much the only
one taken that day.
The picture shows the Steel Samurai, limping his leg and heading towards
the studio. Problem is, we can't see his face as he's turning away from the
camera. This technically could be ANYBODY since we can't prove the person
wearing the costume. Phoenix will also note the timeprint on the card:
"Oct. 15 2:00 PM, Photo #2"
POWERS'S(?) PHOTO has been added to the Court Record. This is all you are
capable of doing for today. Court begins tomorrow, and we are a long way
from finding the real killer of Jack Hammer.
===========
Day 2-Trial
===========
---------------------------------------Date-October 18, 10:00 AM
Location-District Court; Courtroom No. 4
---------------------------------------Nothing special, you are thrown into court as soon as you begin the trial
day. Edgeworth will begin by calling Detective Gumshoe to describe the
crime scene. Gumshoe will describe the entire layout of the studios,
including the crime scene of course. However, Studio 2 for some reason is
left out. Did you notice that? Something important could be there for all
we know. Choose "Skip it" when asked if you want to hear that speech once
again. SAMURAI SPEAR will be added to the Court Record once you choose to
move on.
Edgeworth will have to call the only other real witness that day, Wendy
Oldbag. Yes, this duff is going to testify in court and damn it's not gonna
be pretty. She even starts off by flirting with Edgeworth, then talk about
her younger days for a few paragraphs (really fast text so read quickly).
Let's cross examine.
then the person who was on it easily could have been the murderer as well!
Oldbag will totally flip out at this statement. Unfortunately for you, she
will calm down right away and remember something important. The old duff
still has more testimonies to come.
------------------------------------------~Wendy Oldbag's Testimony-The Other Person~
-------------------------------------------Every day, after I finish my guard duties, I have one other important job
to do.
-I go through the photos recorded on the security computer and check them.
-I throw out any photos that aren't suspicious lookin', you see.
-Come to think of it, now I do remember throwing out one photo that day!
There is only one important statement here. Press her final statement,
about who she erased. She will respon that it was a mere fanboy. You know
why these kind of people are. Freaks who will do anything to see the Steel
Samurai in action. Do you remember the grating from the Employee Area? They
generally sneak in that way. Could this fanboy also be a suspect to the
murder at hand? Remember, these are kids we are talking about.
Everybody in the audience will start to suspect that the fanboy in question
DIDN'T do the murder and that he has nothing to do with this case. That's
not how it's supposed to go. The Judge will call for a break now.
---------------------------------------------Date-October 18, 11:08 AM
Location-District Court; Defendant Lobby No. 3
---------------------------------------------Maya, Powers, and yourself will converse and decide the verdict can't be
decided in your favor today. For the time being you will need to push the
blame on somebody else. There's only one person who could have possibly
done this as far as we know. Let's press her on when court comes back
into session.
---------------------------------------Date-October 18, 11:13 AM
Location-District Court; Courtroom No. 4
---------------------------------------Edgeworth thinks that this new revelation is completely pointless to the
case. Phoenix will state that there is the possibility that another person
could have commited this crime. Remember, you will be penalized if you
choose the wrong answer. Choose the only possible suspect right now, "The
security lady". Who else?
Oldbag is going to flip her lid at this point. Phoenix says that only one
other person knew about Powers' injury-Wendy Oldbag. Well, Wendy Oldbag is
now on the suspect list for possible murderers. She has no alibi, so she
could have easily snagged the Steel Samurai costume. She knew that the
camera would take her picture, so she obviously looked away. Aha! Oldbag
will claim the fanboy just as easily could have been the murderer. Be sure
to "Press further" when asked. Phoenix will mention that there is no way
the fanboy could have been the killer. Show proof by presenting the
Cardkey. It is the only way into Studio One, and he obviously didn't have
Examine the van. It's hard to miss. Think about what it could carry and how
fast it can get to its destination. Next, there is an incinerator near the
van. It's covered in soot, as if somebody was trying to burn something.
Next, look at the garden infront of the trailer. See the fence? It appears
really lethal due to the spik top of it. Finally, look at the plates on the
front table. Two people probably ate here. Maya will say that something
feels odd about the plates. Remember that these plates are empty, it'll
come in handy!
Head back to the main gate so we can hopefully snag a trailer key.
---------------------------------Date-October 18
Location-Global Studios; Main Gate
---------------------------------Do what you did last time to get a key. Examine the guardstation. You will
find they key, but Penny will prevent you from taking it. She is afraid
Oldbag will rip her apart if she found out someone took the key. There's
one more place you haven't checked out yet. Besides Studio One, head to the
Dressing Room.
-------------------------------------Date-October 18
Location-Global Studios; Dressing Room
-------------------------------------"WTF? Who are j00 d00dz!? LMAO!" This is the shocking sentence Maya will
be greeted with as soon as you enter the dressing room. The director, Sal
Manella who suffers from "internet chatroom syndrome" and decides to speak
mostly in 1337 speak. As soon as he notices Maya he will get a spark of
inspiration and think about a new show. It's "Pink Princess:Warrior of
Little Olde Tokyo". NOW THIS deserves a "WTF?" There's three important
things to discuss here. Let's start with "The day of the crime".
He will mostly talk about the obvious information. He was in the Employee
Area from the early morning until noon doing a run-through of an action
scene. He then mentions a meeting from lunch in the Studio Two trailer.
He'll make a sad face when he mentions he couldn't eat. He was there until
after 4:00 PM.
Talk about "The producer" next. You will finally find out her name. She is
Dee Vasquez. She gave the studios a huge comeback quite a while back right
before it went out of business. She was in the meeting as well.
Finally, mention "The bigwigs". These people are actually the main sponsors
of the show, some guys at the network, those type of people. They also
arrived at about noon. That, and they were in the meeting the entire time.
We are out of viable leads. Time to head back to the main gate to see if we
can get the key this time around...or not...
---------------------------------Date-October 18
Location-Global Studios; Main Gate
---------------------------------Ack! She returned! Oldbag has unfortunately come back to haunt the security
station. She says that the police had her try on a spare Steel Samurai
costume, and when it was clear there was no way Oldbag could have fit into
the costume it ruled her out as being the murderer right away.
Oldbag won't give you the key, of course. You can try talking to her on the
various subjects, but you will get nowhere since she hates your guts right
now. Head right back to the Employee Area.
-------------------------------------Date-October 18
Location-Global Studios; Employee Area
-------------------------------------Maya's efforts to destroy the drainage blockade didn't go in vain. You will
find the crazed fanboy, Cody Hackins, standing in the Employee Area with a
smug look on his face.
Talk to him about "The Steel Samurai". Maya and Cody will get into a fight
about who's the bigger Steel Samurai fan, leaving Phoenix confused. Now
that Cody is willing to talk (somewhat), ask "What happened". Cody will
shut his trap right away, then comments that "the Steel Samurai always
wins!". He saw everything that happened. Before you get yourself a chance
to interrigate him, Cody will dive through the storm drain. Hmph. He'll be
back. That's for sure.
On his way out, though, Cody hit a table and a bottle fell off. What could
it be? EMPTY BOTTLE will be added to the Court Record. Head back to the
main gate.
---------------------------------Date-October 18
Location-Global Studios; Main Gate
---------------------------------Oldbag will catch eye of Cody and start chasing him like there's no
tomorrow. Pretty funny. Since she is a bit occupied, why not examine the
guardstation now and swipe the key there? TRAILER KEY will be added to the
Court Record.
Now all you need to do is enter the trailer. Head for Studio Two.
------------------------------------------Date-October 18
Location-Global Studios; Outside Studio Two
------------------------------------------Examine the trailer. Once you do, Phoenix will insert the key. You have
access to the trailer now so don't hesistate to enter.
------------------------------------------Date-October 18
Location-Global Studios; Studio Two Trailer
------------------------------------------The trailer is where the producer of Global Studios, Dee Vasquez, works. I
won't comment on her bizarre style of clothing or her looks in general.
Anyways, try talking to her about "The day of the crime". Vasquez won't say
a thing. She will mention something about a "script", though. She is
looking for a script (why is she in her trailer then...?) for the Steel
Samurai.
Ask about "The director". Vasquez will bring up that she still needs her
script. Before you decide to leave, Vasquez will hand you a note to give
to Manella if you happen to see him. VASQUEZ'S MEMO is added to the Court
Record. Manella should still be in the Dressing Room so let's head there.
-------------------------------------Date-October 18
Location-Global Studios; Dressing Room
-------------------------------------Manella is still here. Not sure why in Powers' room to be sure, but he is.
Present Vesquez's Memo to him and Manella will freak out for a second. He
will say that he has no clue where he left the script. That helps up quite
a lot, now then doesn't it.
Fine. The script in question is a bit hard to find-move to Studio One.
----------------------------------Date-October 18
Location-Global Studios; Studio One
----------------------------------In a studio there is only one logical place that a script could be. Lo and
behold the script is clearly visible tipped on the director's chair.
Genious! Examine the chair to add the SCRIPT to the Court Record...for now.
With that said and done you should probably head back to Vasquez. Perhaps
with this motivation she will finally talk about something.
------------------------------------------Date-October 18
Location-Global Studios; Studio Two Trailer
------------------------------------------Present the Script to Vasquez. She will take if from you, then start to
read it. She'll stop, ask if she's a suspect, then inquiry if you wanted
to know more about the day of the murder.
You will learn a great deal more information here. Remember that there was
a meeting in the trailer at noon on the crime day. She will state that none
of the people in the trailer had gone to Studio One that afternoon. It was
actually impossible for them to leave. The road to the Studio was blocked
the majority of the afternoon. She will suddenly break off there.
Talk about "The blocked path" to pick up on the discussion. Remember the
Mr. Monkey head, mascot of Global Studios? Wind was strong that day and it
knocked off the head from its high perch onto the ground. The path towards
the trailer was completely blocked. The path wasn't cleared until 4:00 PM.
Hammer died at 2:30. Since everyone was stuck in the trailer, it would have
been impossible for anybody inside the trailer to go to Studio One and kill
Hammer then.
Phoenix will say the monkey could have falled after 2:30. However, Vasquez
will show the monkey broke when it fell (it also spoke the time. Inanimate
objects speaking the time is such a cliche theme now). Indeed it did break
at 2:15 PM. MR. MONKEY data will be added to the Court Record.
Phoenix and Maya agree they should head back to the offices to plan their
next move. Head there now.
--------------------------------Date-October 18
Samurai did it. If Cody is put on the stand it will ensure that Will
Powers will get declared guilty.
Too late! Gumshoe was waiting outside, listening to the conversation. Cody
is a key witness and will be under severe police protection until after
the trial.
Well that's just great. The one place you could have gotten leads is gone,
you are pretty much screwed for court, no useful evidence that can be used
to contradict anything has surfaced, and Cody is probably going to testify
tomorrow.
===========
Day 3-Trial
===========
---------------------------------------------Date-October 19, 9:42 AM
Location-District Court; Defendant Lobby No. 1
---------------------------------------------All seems hopeless now, and Mia even declares Powers as a dead man walking.
You have no real defense in trial, after all. If Powers is really innocent
then perhaps you overlooked something critical. And now for trial!
---------------------------------------Date-October 19, 10:00 AM
Location-District Court; Courtroom No. 4
---------------------------------------To prove that the extra people in the studios had nothing to do with the
murder, Edgeworth will call Manella to the stand.
----------------------------------------------~Sal Manella's Testimony-The Day of the Murder~
-----------------------------------------------I was at the studios from around 9:00 that morning.
-During the morning, I was doing...umm...an action scene run-through.
-It took a lot more time than I thought it would.
-I hear that everyone else ate lunch in the Employee Area...
-But I had a meeting in the Studio Two trailer, so I ended up skipping
lunch.
-We were in the meeting until about 4:00...
-During the meeting, well, I'm pretty sure nobody left their chairs.
There isn't any clear contradicion. You will need to start pressing. Press
his first statement to confirm when he arrives at work (no, I don't know
what FWIW means). Press the second statement. Only Oldbag, Hammer, Powers,
and himself were in the Employee Area for the run-through. Skip to the
fifth statement, about him having to skip lunch. Manella will say that he
didn't eat at all. Mia will ask you if something about that statement
sounds a bit wierd. Choose "It's contradictory". Remember the plates that
were on the table infront of the trailer? If that's the case then somebody
However, he was too busy watching the intense action scene that he didn't
bother taking a picture. He will now testify on what kept him so occupied.
-----------------------------------~Cody Hackins' Testimony-What I Saw~
------------------------------------Y-yeah, I had my camera with me.
-But I was glued to the action! I couldn't take my eyes off it!
-The Steel Samuraim he goes for the bad guy...wham!
-Then...the bad guy stopped moving!
-He's so strong! The Steel Samurai rules!
Cody is starting to get very vague with his explainations. You'll need to
press him for the facts. His fourth statement, about when he goes for the
bad guy and he stops moving. Phoenix will ask what the Steel Samurai did to
make his foe stop moving. He will mention a kick, punch, and a slap. Choose
to "Press him harder" after that comment. Cody said before he couldn't take
his eyes off the action. However, he missed the most important moment-the
Steel Samurai's finishing blow.
The Judge will now ask you for an explaination of how Cody could have
missed the most important detail. Why couldn't have Cody seen the most
important part? It should be obvious. Cody takes pictures of every final
blow the Steel Samurai makes. Cody must have been fumbling around with his
camera to take a picture. Present Cody's Camera after choosing "Show
evidence".
Cody wanted to take a picture. Badly. He will admit to this statement. Mia
is quite sure herself that Cody is still hiding something critically
important to this case. Cody will testify one last time.
----------------------------------~Cody Hackins' Testimony-No Photo?~
-----------------------------------Yeah, you're right, pops.
-The Steel Samurai has just escaped from the clutches of the villian.
-So I held up my camera to take a picture!
-But the lens wouldn't open in time, so I missed it.
-Th-that's all that happened. Yup.
No, that most certainly is NOT all that happened. Choose to press his final
statement. Phoenix is pretty sure that he did end up taking at least some
pictures. Choose to "Press him harder". Accusing him of taking a picture
might work in your favor.
Cody freaks out a bit. Cody apparrently gives in quite easily. He did
indeed take some pictures of the Steel Samurai at that moment. Cody's line
of testimony will change to:
Phoenix will restate that the path was blocked at 2:15 PM that day. In
total, the victim must have gone to Studio Two before that time. Manella
said that nobody in the trailer could have killed Hammer since that path
was blocked. In reality, the opposite is true! Only those in the trailer
actually could have commited the murder. They were the only other people
who were at Studio Two at the time.
What have we learned today? The scene of the crime is actually Studio Two.
Jack Hammer was the one in the Steel Samurai suit, not Will Powers. What
we still don't know is why he would steal the Steel Samurai costume.
Edgeworth will demand proof that the person in the photo was actually
Hammer and not Powers. Choose "I have proof". Remember the empty bottle
we got a while back? Present the Empty Bottle. It turns out this bottle
actually contained a bunch of sleeping pills. It was at the table Hammer
and Powers ate. Hammer drugged Powers with the sleeping pills. That was the
only way Hammer could steal the costume.
There is still no proof Hammer used it though. The Judge will ask if you
know a way. Choose "Fingerprint the bottle". If Hammer really did use this
bottle then his fingerprints are going to be all over it. The Empty Bottle
will be given to the Judge.
So many things in this case all changed, in our favor, thanks to Cody. You
will be asked to find the answer to two very important questions. Why would
Hammer want or need to steal the Steel Samurai costume? Also, who is the
real killer? Court will finally be adjourned.
---------------------------------------------Date-October 19, 2:47 PM
Location-District Court; Defendant Lobby No. 1
---------------------------------------------Well, you still have a little work to do. You will need to find the real
killer by the last day of the trial.
===================
Day 3-Investigation
===================
--------------------------------Date-October 19, 3:27 PM
Location-Wright & Co. Law Offices
--------------------------------Mia has left Maya's body for now. Phoenix will explain to her that you have
a good lead from today's court session, but you are missing vital points
such as who really killed Hammer and why they did. Talk to Maya about "Any
ideas". She suggests that you go talk to Powers. Head to the Detention
Center.
----------------------------------------Date-October 19
Location-Detention Center; Visitor's Room
----------------------------------------Powers must know something that will give you a new lead. Talk about
"Produce Vasquez". He states the obvious; she is a genious, been at Global
Studios for five years, saved it from going out of business and so on.
Powers is also about to say something else before he stops himself. Hmmm.
Talk to him about "Director Manella". His works intriqued Vasquez. However,
something you didn't know was that Manella is basically Vasquez's servent.
He is willing to do almost anything for her.
Talk about "Mr. Hammer" last. Hammer was famous until about five years ago.
Five years ago also happened to be when Vasquez joined Global Studios.
Perhaps there is a connection? Head back to Global Studios for some final
investigations.
---------------------------------Date-October 19
Location-Global Studios; Main Gate
---------------------------------Oldbag is still at her post, as expected. She isn't that talkative today
for some reason. Get her rambling when you talk to her about "Producer
Vasquez". The studio bigwigs love here and she always seems to get her way.
Oldbag appears to dislike the producer, that and she isn't allowed to talk
about her.
Talk about "Director Manella" next. She says what Powers just said. Vasquez
treats him like dirt. Manella doesn't seem to mind it, though. Talk about
"Mr. Hammer" last. She heard everything that you said today in court and
she will get seriously pissed off at it. Uh, before she gets a heart attack
I suggest you head to the Employee Area.
-------------------------------------Date-October 19
Location-Global Studios; Employee Area
-------------------------------------After Maya comments on how she wanted to see a film shooting today, you
will meet up with Detective Gumshoe again. Gumshoe is here to examine the
plates on the tables for any signs of the sleeping pills. Talk to him about
"The plate". He is capable of testing the plates for any traces of the
sleeping pills right here on the spot. He will test the plates, and indeed
there are sleeping pill traces on the plate. STEAK PLATE will be added to
the Court Record.
Talk to Gumshoe about "The investigation" next. The entire police are
confused by these events. Some say Powers couldn't have done it, while
others are saying there's no way anybody but him did it. Gumshoe is in a
real bind here.
Ask about "Prosector Edgeworth" last. Edgeworth is seriously ticked off,
and earlier crushed a paper cup with hot coffee in it, spilling it over
himself. Gumshoe will also mention that the empty bottle was tested and
Hammer's prints were clearly visible on the bottle. Powers really was
sleeping the entire time. SLEEPING PILL BOTTLE will be added to the Court
Record again. Head back into Powers's Dressing Room.
-------------------------------------Date-October 19
Location-Global Studios; Dressing Room
-------------------------------------Manella isn't here anymore, but Penny sure is for whatever reason. She also
mentions that this will be the last episode of the Steel Samurai, so Powers
probably won't be using the room anymore. Ask her about "Mr. Hammer".
Phoenix will talk about the recent revelations about Hammer going to Studio
Two and so on. She mentions that the "rumor" has been true. The secret is
that Vasquez has some kind of hold upon Hammer this entire time. He would
do anything she said, much like Manella. About five years ago there was a
movie starring Jack Hammer. They were shooting in Studio Two, the newest
studio back then. It was during that time that an accident occured. After
that happened, Studio Two was never used for filming ever again. The film
set, namely the trailer, wasn't move either.
Ask about "The last episode" next. Whoever killed Hammer also signed the
Steel Samurai's death warrant, so-to-speak. Global Studios is also changing
its programming. They won't be filming any more kids' shows. How
disappointing. Continue this conversation by talking about "Studio policy".
The studio bigwigs don't want the Steel Samurai to be around anymore. This
whole incident is because of that show and they all want to forget about
it. However, Maya complains that kids everywhere will be heartbroken if the
Steel Samurai is kicked off the air. You will be asked to present something
that shows Penny that kids still care about the show. Present "Path to
Glory".
Penny is ready to talk about the incident several years ago. Talk about
"Five years ago". Penny doesn't know all the details, but apparently
somebody died five years ago, and it was Hammer's fault. It was an
accident, however. Vasquez was there at the time and managed to quiet the
paparazzi to avoid news getting out. This essentially became blackmail
against Hammer in favor of Vasquez. Hammer was afraid of what would happen
to his career if news got out. That's all Penny knows. She mentions that
Oldbag worked here at the time of the incident so you are better off asking
her. Head there, now.
---------------------------------Date-October 19
Location-Global Studios; Main Gate
---------------------------------Oldbag still hates you. Heh. Talk about "Five years ago" with Oldbag as
well. She gets real mad. She demands to know who told you that information.
She still doesn't believe Hammer stole Powers' costume. To get her talking,
you need to present some proof. Say "I have proof" then show her the
Sleeping Pill Bottle. You will now need to show proof that Hammer used
these pills on Powers. Present the Steak Plate. There are still pill
powders left on the plate. She becomes quickly disappointed in Hammer, and
will agree to talk to you.
She has wanted to tell somebody about the accident, so this is her chance.
Five years ago there was an accident. What's worse, the media took a photo
of it. Vasquez was there to solve the situation. She will then show you a
picture the media took. It shows Hammer standing on the balcony of the
trailer with a man pierced through the chest by the spiky fence. He
accidentally shoved a man off the stand and onto the fence. FIVE-YEAR-OLD
PHOTO will be added to the Court Record. Let's go pay Vasquez a visit.
------------------------------------------Date-October 19
Location-Global Studios; Outside Studio Two
------------------------------------------You will find Vasquez outside of the trailer, just staring at the clouds.
You can try to talk to her about the various subjects but she won't respond
at all. Present to her the Five-Year-Old photo. Once you do, she will ask
to know where you got the picture. She seems...odd all of a sudden. She
will head into the trailer and asks you to follow if you wish to speak
with her.
------------------------------------------Date-October 19
Location-Global Studios; Studio Two Trailer
------------------------------------------Vasquez will finally agree to talk to you, as bitter as she still may seem.
Phoenix exclaims she was using the accident as blackmail. She claims it
wasn't an accident, though. She is implying that Hammer killed that man in
the photo on purpose. If it was an accident, she wouldn't have been able to
blackmail Hammer for so long. Oldbag claims it was an accident because she
was a big fan of Hammer back then. Oldbag jumped the photographer, which
explains how she got the photo.
Vasquez will now demand that you hand her the Five-Year-Old photo. Of
course, Maya will step in and demand she backs off. Vasquez calls her
little mafia gang. She is planning on "erasing" you and Maya (if you don't
get this, she's basically about to kill you). Before she has a chance to do
that, Gumshoe will quickly jump through the door and rescue you. Gumshoe
will place Vasquez in police custody and take her away. She is going to
appear in court tomorrow.
This pretty much guarentees that Dee Vasquez is the murderer. We are still
lacking a clear motive, though. Maybe we can find one in court...
===========
Day 4-Trial
===========
---------------------------------------Date-October 20, 10:00 AM
Location-District Court; Courtroom No. 4
---------------------------------------Dee Vasquez will finally be called to the stand. You will need to expose
the fact that she is the real killer...somehow.
----------------------------------------------~Dee Vasquez's Testimony-The Day of the Murder~
-----------------------------------------------I entered the trailer, oh, a little before noon.
-The meeting began at 12:00 sharp. It ended at 4:00.
-There was to be a rehersal afterwards, so we went to Studio One.
-I was fatigued, so I had Sal take me.
-At 2:30, we took a 15-minute break in the meeting.
-Sal and I ate t-bone steaks on the table in front of the trailer.
The Judge will first ask about how Vasquez got to the studio when she was
fatigued. She will mention the van parked in the Studio Two lot. She had
Manella drive her to Studio One, mainly because she was worried that
something else might happen after the monkey head fell over. VAN will be
added to the Court Record.
The first three statements, when pressed, will give you some comical
dialogue. Skip to the final statement of her testimony. She says that Sal
and herself at t-bone steaks, however I told you to remember one important
detail quite a while ago. Infront of the Studio Two trailer there were
indeed several plates. However, they were empty! Present the Steak Plate
at this statement.
Vasquez claims she ate the steak, but she obviously couldn't have done
that. Phoenix will show the plate, and that it clearly has a large bone on
it still because nobody has cleaned them up yet. Vasquez and Manella ate a
t-bone steak as well. The problem is, their plates are empty! Phoenix
claims he knows how Vasquez ate the steak and got rid of the bone. As funny
as the remarks and resulting speeches are, choose "You didn't eat the
steak".
Phoenix will say Vasquez didn't eat the steak in the break, but rather
threw it somewhere convienent, such as the incinerator next to the van. The
Judge will now ask that if she wasn't eating a steak, what was she doing?
Respond "Meeting the Steel Samurai". Phoenix claims that while she left the
trailer the Steel Samurai appeared, and then she killed him. Vasquez is
fine with you calling her a murderer. She is actually entertained by the
thought of it. You and her are going to have a battle of wits, see? You
will have to pry out the information from her.
She will begin by mentioning the murder weapon. She says how would she have
been able to use that heavy speak as weapon. Say "No you couldn't, could
you". Think about it. The Steel Samurai was holding the Samurai Spear the
entire time. How the hell would Vasquez have managed to have gotten the
spear and used it to slice through Hammer? Not to mention she would have to
be damn strong to do so. This is irrelevant information, however, because
the Samurai Spear isn't actually the murder weapon.
You will need to show proof. Obviously, present the Samurai Spear. Remember
that the Samurai Spear had been broken the day of the murder, but was
fixed with some duct tape. In its mangled state it would have been
impossible to ram it through the Steel Samurai costume, let alone someone's
chest.
What an interesting series of events! Vasquez will question that if the
Samurai Spear isn't the actual murder weapon, then what was? Choose "I can
tell you". Such an accident has occured before in the past. That's rightHammer was most likely killed by falling onto that spiky fence. Present the
Five-Year-Old photo to back up this absurd claim.
Remember, Jack Hammer was standing at the top of the stairs. He pushed a
fellow actor off the stage and onto the fence. What does this have to do
with the current case? The fencepost pierced through the man's chest, much
like the Samurai Spear was said to have done to Hammer. What happened back
then has happened again.
Vasquez will point out a problem in your theory. The body was found in
Studio One, and inside the Evil Magistrate costume to boot. There isn't
exactly any way Vasquez could have moved Hammer's body to Studio One,
Press this new statement. How did Vasquez find out about the injury? She
will state that Manella has told her Hammer was injured. Wait, a long time
ago we learned Powers had been injured, not Hammer! Present Powers's(?)
Photo here. Vasquez will freak out for a second. If Manella really told
her who was injured, he of all people would know since he was there. Choose
"You saw Hammer limping". Hammer dragged his leg to pretend that he was
Will Powers. Vasquez, before she killed Hammer, saw him limping and
assumed he was injured. Vasquez has one last question. You still have no
idea what the hell her motive is. She would gain nothing from killing him!
She would be losing one of her big stars in Global Studios. The stupidity
of the idea!
Has it all made sense yet? No? You will be asked whether or not Vasquez had
a motive. Think about it. Hammer went through a crapload of trouble to get
the Steel Samurai costume and seek out Vasquez. He was the one out for the
killing, not Vasquez. Choose "Of course I can prove it!" Choose to present
the Five-Year-Old photo.
Phoenix will, again, restate all of the information you well already know.
Vasquez used Hammer like a slave. But we still haven't said a motive.
Choose "She had no motive". Hammer was actually out for blood, not Vasquez.
Vasquez easily pushed Hammer off the stairs in self-defense before she
undoubtably would have been killed by Hammer.
What a crazy turnabout. Dee Vasquez will finally admit to killing Hammer
accidentally out of self-defense. Everything else that was important in
this case, well, is history. Technically Vasquez never did anything wrong
but defend herself. Eh.
---------------------------------------------Date-October 20, 1:12 PM
Location-District Court; Defendant Lobby No. 3
---------------------------------------------Well, that's a happy ending. Powers is still curious why Hammer wanted to
frame him for the murder, present Powers's(?) Photo. Hammer was once a big
time star, after all. He was totally jealous that Powers got to play the
leading role as the Steel Samurai. Edgeworth will then appear. Phoenix
thanks Edgeworth for stepping in when Vasquez easily would have gotten
away with her crime. He will mention that he didn't expect to meet him
after all these years. Huh? Phoenix and Edgeworth knew eachother a long
time ago...?
That's the end of the case. The Steel Samurai has been cancelled, but the
Pink Princess quickly took up its spot. Good going.
==========================================
~8.Episode 4-Turnabout Goodbyes~
==========================================
The opening cutscene you will see what appears to be two men standing on a
boat in the middle of a very foggy lake. One of them will mention that it
has been a long, suffering 15 years and that he is back for revenge.
Suddenly he pulls out a gun and shoots it. You will next see a man fall
into the lake. The camera zooms in on the man picking up the gun, and it is
none other than Miles Edgeworth! What the hell?
---------------------------------
to this murder. The police raced to the lake once the witness heard the
gunshots.
Ask about "Edgeworth" now. Gumshoe honestly doesn't believe that Edgeworth
is actually a murderer. Most of the police have the opposite opinion,
though, which makes it seem they are shirking in their investigative
duties. It's sad nobody is going to help him.
Talk about "The witness" next. Once again, the witness's identity is
confidential at this moment. She apparently saw everything. She was the
only person who saw the murder that night.
Ask about "Defense request" last. Edgeworth has a bit of a reputation as
you already know. Basically, if anyone defended him then they would likely
suffer despite their victory, if one was achievable. The case against
Edgeworth is also pretty solid. Fat chance of winning in court. When
Phoenix mentions that Edgeworth wouldn't allow him to defend him, Gumshoe
will call that crazy. Edgeworth actually praised you like crazy after the
Steel Samurai case. That's crazy. Can't imagine him doing such a thing.
Gumshoe will be ordered to leave for an investigative breifing. He will ask
if you have anything left to say. Choose "How to get in touch with you".
Gumshoe will show you where the precinct is so you are capable of coming
back there and seeing him at any time. He will also give you permission to
walk around the park for any other clues the police may have missed.
If you asked for the Autopsy Report, Gumshoe will mention it isn't ready
yet, and will then give you directions to the precinct. Anyways, move into
Gourd Lake.
--------------------------------Date-December 25
Location-Gourd Lake; Public Beach
--------------------------------There is a couple of things on the beachfront property. You can see the
lake from here. It is pretty cold-looking. There is also a hotdog stand
called Samurai Dogs. Too bad the Steel Samurai isn't a show anymore. The
stand is closed, anyways.
There is something you will need to examine. See the little thing on one of
the benches? Examine it to discover that it is actually a party popper.
Maya thinks that this might be a clue. Choose to "Take it" as it will come
in handy soon. POPPER added to the Court Record.
Nothing else is important for right now. Head to Gourd Lake Woods.
------------------------Date-December 25
Location-Gourd Lake Woods
------------------------It appears that somebody is doing some experiments here. There is a large
SUV near some trees, a campsite all laid out, and a large, expensive
looking camera aimed right at the lake. Examine the sign near the car. It
reads "No camping". Silly people. Breaking the law!
Next, examine the most obvious thing here-the large camera. The camera has
a large microphone attached to it. Phoenix deduces that the camera is
triggered when a loud noise is detected. Maya decides to try it out and see
what happens. She wil try yelling at it but nothing happens. She will then
set off the party popper. This noise sets off the camera at full speed as
it uses up a roll of film.
Suddenly, a woman will appear and is quite pissed off that you just used up
an expensive roll of film. The woman won't respond to any of your
questions, so choose to present your Attorney's Badge (note that the popper
has been thrown away). You will introduce yourself as a lawyer and what
not. She will be delighted to help you since this is part of a murder. Why
do so many woman want to be involved in stuff like this...?
She will introduce herself as Lotta Hart. She is photographing meteor
showers for a school research project. Ask her about "What happened" now.
Phoenix will explain the murder details to Lotta. She seems to have no
clue what is going on. She does slightly remember seeing a boat from late
last night.
Ask her about "The camera". She will explain that the microphone attached
to the camera triggers the shutter whenever it hears certain sounds. The
popper just happened to be one of them. It is set to loud noises. LOTTA'S
CAMERA will be added to the Court Record.
Ask about "Lotta" now. She is a research student at Country U. (what an
original name!) She came to this lake several days ago to film to meteor
showers, as stated earlier.
Before you leave, present Lotta's Camera to her. Phoenix confirms that the
camera reacts to explosion-like noises. He will say that the victim was
shot with a pistol. A gunshot makes a noise like an explosion, right?
Phoenix will ask if her camera got a picture of the murder. Lotta will
leave for her SUV to check for the photo. She won't be ready until later.
Head for the precinct now to check up on Gumshoe.
-------------------------------------------Date-December 25
Location-Police Department; Criminal Affairs
-------------------------------------------Gumshoe will have just finished his meeting as you arrive at the precinct.
Ask about "The victim". Nobody can determine his name yet. Edgeworth hasn't
mentioned it either.
Ask about "The meeting" next. Gumshoe isn't able to tell you the details,
however. But he will metion that people are confused. Edgeworth normally
isn't like this. He doesn't go around hiding secrets. He requests that you
defend him whether he likes it or not. Ask about "Trusting Edgeworth" now.
Gumshoe trusts Edgeworth since they have had a working relationship for a
while now. He gets guilty verdicts mainly because he has good faith in the
investigation team. That, and forging some evidence.
Now, finally talk about "The autopsy report". Gumshoe managed to make a
copy of it. AUTOPSY REPORT will be added to the Court Record. Maya will
see the face of the victim and she will mention she may have seen him a
long time ago.
You will find out the cause of death was a bullet to the heart from the
autopsy report. There is also the possibility he died sometime on the 24th.
Hmm. Let's go back and check on Lotta.
------------------------Date-December 25
Location-Gourd Lake Woods
------------------------Lotta is back from her SUV, and she managed to
two pictures last night. She will show you one
dark, foggy night out on the lake. Two men can
boat in the middle of the lake. The man on the
holding a pistol. However, it is impossible to
is actually doing the shooting.
Lotta will now take back her statement from earlier and claim that she
actually saw this murder take place, making herself a witness. She will ask
if she should call the cops. Respond "I reckon so". However, she is going
save the remainder of her information for court so you won't be able to
talk to her until later. LAKE PHOTO will be added to the Court Record.
One little issue. She didn't show us the second lake photo! It will come
to light eventually, just ignore the thought for now. Head back to the
public beach.
--------------------------------Date-December 25
Location-Gourd Lake; Public Beach
--------------------------------As soon as you arrive, a guy in a freaky Santa costume will appear. Hah,
if it isn't just Larry fooling around on a day like this. He has no
girlfriend, remember? Larry is actually the owner of Samurai Dogs. Also, he
managed to get himself a new girlfriend who also happens to be a model.
She better not be killed. His girlfriend bought him the costume. Anyways,
Larry seems to be in a good mood.
Talk to him about "What happened". Maya will mention that Larry probably
was with Kiyance yesterday since it was Christmas Eve. Larry will act
surprised for a moment. She's at a photo shoot in Hawaii right now. Phoenix
will say Edgeworth is going to be the defendant, and he will act really
surprised. Larry knows Edgeworth because he was with Larry and Phoenix in
their fourth grade class. Hah.
Talk about "Samurai Dogs" next. This isn't gonna get you anything special
information wise, though. This will open up the new topic on "Gourdy" so
ask Larry about that. Gourdy is actually a giant lake monster that
supposedly lives in this lake. Larry will then show you a newspaper
article from the previous night. There is a photo of a couple, with a giant
stick...thing in the background. It can be assumed, for now, that this is
the Gourdy that they are talking about. There is also a quote in the
article about someone who set the camera to automatic, heard a loud bang,
then saw something head into the water. Sounds like Lotta made this
photograph. GOURDY ARTICLE will be added to the Court Record.
Now finish this up by talking about "Edgeworth". You know that Larry,
Phoenix, and Edgeworth were friends back in fourth grade. He was always
attempting to be like his father. Edgeworth's dad was a famous defense
attorney at the time. Maya brings up the fact that Edgeworth is a
prosecutor, not a defense attorney. Seems wierd. You'll figure that out all
in due time. For now, head back to your office.
--------------------------------Date-December 25
Location-Wright & Co. Law Offices
--------------------------------Maya will mention that something has been bothering her for a while. Maya
will ask to look at the autopsy report again. She will suddenly remember
that the man who was killed was a lawyer that worked in the office Mia
worked at for a while. That must mean Grossberg knows something about this
guy, like, his name!? Head to his office now.
-----------------------------Date-December 25
Location-Grossberg Law Offices
-----------------------------Grossberg has no reason to avoid you, so you will easily find him at his
office. Talk about "That painting" first. Curious why it still isn't back
to its original place? Redd White technically didn't steal if from him back
in case 2 so Grossberg is unable to justly claim it for himself again. Too
bad, so sad.
On to business. Talk about "What happened". Grossberg won't know anything
on this matter since he just woke up. He should know something, though.
Present the autopsy report. Grossberg will easily remember who that lawyer
is. His name is Robert Hammond. Talk about "Robert Hammond" now. Grossberg
will say he was a defense attorney in "that case". The DL-6 Incident.
Remember that old case? You should remember the details of that case.
Talk about "The DL6 Incident" next. The case happened 15 years ago. This is
an important detail, so remember it for later. The real criminal was never
caught in this case because the spirit that Misty Fey contacted was
innocent. The defense attorney for the case was none other than Robert
Hammond. He got the man declared innocent. So, what does this have to do
with Edgeworth? A lot, actually. The victim in the case was none other than
Gregory Edgeworth, his father. Grossberg doesn't know all the details of
this incident, however, and suggests that you mention it to Edgeworth.
Perhaps he will talk. Grossberg will also hand you a photo of Maya's
mother. You will need to use it to get Edgeworth talking. It's the same
photo you found on Grossberg's desk in the second case. MISTY FEY'S PHOTO
will be added to the Court Record.
Head for the Detention Center now.
----------------------------------------Date-December 25
Location-Detention Center; Visitor's Room
----------------------------------------Obviously, present Misty Fey's photo to Edgeworth. He will say that he
didn't want you to find out about the DL-6 Incident because it supposedly
haunts him (and for good reasons, obviously). He didn't want you involved
so he shoved you away from being his defense attorney. However, since you
found out, there's nothing to keep secret anymore. Edgeworth will confess.
Talk to him "The DL6 Incident". Edgeworth will state that the case indeed
involves his father's death. You will brefily be shown a picture of his
dad slumped over in an elevator. Right infront of Edgeworth his father was
shot and killed. He can't remember all of the details. Somebody was
arrested, the only person who could have possibly killed his father. Misty
Fey even said the same thing when the spirit used was contacted. Robert
Hammond cleared the man of suspicion. Edgeworth thought the case was about
to finally be over, but now it has resurfaced. Note again that the
incident occured 15 years ago, on December 28th. The statue of limitations
on this case run out in three days.
Statue of limitations basically means that after a certain number of years,
in this game 15 years, if a case has not yet been closed then it will be
closed by default permanently. This means that the real killer, should he
still be alive, will be completely free and is unable to be arrested by the
police. There's only three days left in the case.
Ask about "The suspect". After he was declared innocent he left society.
Edgeworth has no idea if he is still alive of not, but he says if he is
alive he would likely be around 50 years old.
Talk about "Your father" last. Gregory Edgeworth was a famous attorney when
he was alive. Edgeworth seems to hate the thought of talking about it so
drop the subject. There's one last bit of info you can get from him.
Present the Lake Photo. Edgeworth will say that he did not kill Hammond.
Isn't that what all of your clients say? Edgeworth will hate to say it, but
he actually wants you to defend him in court. Choose "Of course we will".
Phoenix will mention this is his chance to pay Edgeworth back. You'll
understand later. Edgeworth will hand you his letter of request.
EDGEWORTH'S REQUEST will be added to the Court Record.
Before you can leave and go to Gumshoe, an earthquake will strike. It will
only last a few seconds, though. After it ends, Edgeworth will be on the
floor scared like a cat. Let's leave him alone now.
-------------------------------------------Date-December 25
Location-Police Departmentl Criminal Affairs
-------------------------------------------Gumshoe will be stomping mad when you enter the police department. Lotta
decided to go stomping in and claim that she saw the murder firsthand and
even has the photographic evidence to prove it. Talk about "Lotta's
testimony". You can't tell who is shooting the pistol, remember? Lotta said
that she planned to enlarge the photo. Remember that info! She said that it
may be able to determine who did the shooting. The other witness also
decided to not testify. Oh well.
Talk about "Tomorrow's trial". Gumshoe will look pretty glum since the
evidence is heavily against Edgeworth. Talk about "Edgeworth" last. He will
demand that you defend him in court.
...and we have just the thing. Present Edgeworth's Request. You are now
offically Edgeworth's attorneys. Don't screw it up in court! He will also
mention that Edgeworth had a fear of earthquakes for a while.
===========
Day 2-Trial
===========
---------------------------------------------Date-December 26, 9:44 AM
the description of the pistol. "Fired 3 times". Didn't somebody say, namely
Lotta, that she heard two gunshots? Before you can object to this, Karma
will stop the cross examination. He will ask Gumshoe if the bullet was
actually fired from this very pistol. He will respond that it was. Maya is
confused when "ballistic markings" are mentioned, and you will be told
what they are. They're basically the fingerprints of a gun.
Karma will now explain that since the ballistic markings of the bullet
matching the markings of the pistol, and that Edgeworth's fingerprints are
on the gun, he must have been the murderer. The Judge is almost ready to
declare a verdict at this point. However, he is still curious to hear what
the other witness has to say because it could be important to this case.
von Karma will demand a recess, and that forces the Judge to do so. I
assumed the Judge had control of the court, but I suppose Karma has more
power than he does. Hah.
---------------------------------------------Date-December 26, 11:09 AM
Location-District Court; Defendant Lobby No. 2
---------------------------------------------Edgeworth will talk to you now. He will mention that it was him in the
boat that night. However, he most certainly did not shoot the other man.
He mentions he did hear a gunshot near him, though. Then the other man
fell from the boat. Edgeworth isn't sure why but he thinks the guy may
have shot himself. Strange circumstances.
Maya will then question if she's even useful here. Choose "No, I need you
here". Court will be back in session soon after.
---------------------------------------Date-December 26, 11:19 AM
Location-District Court; Courtroom No. 3
---------------------------------------von Karma will start by calling Lotta to the stand. She's going to testify
on, well, what she saw.
-----------------------------------------~Lotta Hart's Testimony-Witness's Account~
------------------------------------------It was Christmas Eve, just after midnight, I reckon.
-I was in my car.
-I heard this "bang" come up from the lake.
-When I looked out the window, I saw two gents in a boat.
-Then there was another "bang"...
-There wasn't nary a thing on the lake but that boat.
von Karma states that if you cross examine Lotta you will be held in
contempt of court if you find nothing. Choose "I think there was" when
Maya asks if you found a contradiction.
Actually, that wasn't the smartest idea but you have no choice. Lotta's
testimony is rock solid. There aren't any contradicions. Prepare for a ton
of von Karmic objections (as Phoenix calls them) as you will need to
press EVERY single statement. You will need to "Press further" on several
statements to get an objection from von Karma. Phoenix will now be held in
contempt of court. Basically, you can't say anything or you'll be escorted
away from the courtroom and into jail. Whoo. Maya still thinks that Lotta's
testimony has holes, but you can't fill them with von Karma here. Before
the Judge passes judgement (again), Maya will step in. She will yell at
Lotta. Hard. She says pretty much that her testimony is crap. Of course,
you are in contempt of court. The Judge will now have you thrown out of
the courtroom, which basically means the end of the trial.
Maya will take the blame for making the outburst. She requests that she be
removed from the courtroom instead of Phoenix. When Karma asks if all that
is needed is the Judge's verdict, declare "Wrong". Lotta just said, during
Maya's outburst, she saw Edgeworth clearly. That wasn't in her testimony.
This changes her testimony. von Karma will not allow this because you are
still in contempt of court, but the Judge will finally make his own
decision and allow you to cross examine again.
-------------------------------------------~Lotta Hart's Testimony-That Last Statement~
--------------------------------------------I saw it clear as day. That man on the boat was Mr. Edgeworth.
...and that's it! Whatever you do, DON'T PRESS THIS! You are still in
contempt of court. You will be penalized if you press this statement. In
any case, the contradiction is all too obvious. The picture in question
is too foggy and blurry to make out the faces of anybody. Present the Lake
Photo.
The picture was taken with high-quality and expensive film, right? It
should have better viewing capabilities than the eye. Therefore, if the
film couldn't get a view of the faces then Lotta easily couldn't have. She
will explain how she saw Edgeworth now.
----------------------------------------------~Lotta Hart's Testimony-How Edgeworth Was Seen~
-----------------------------------------------Yer right. It was a cold night, and the mist was thick as grits.
-So, once I was finished setting up my camera, I got back in the car.
-Still, I brought my binoculars with me.
-When I heard that noise out on the lake, I looked with my binoculars.
Press her third statement. She is looking at shooting stars, NOT something
on the lake. She has no reason to have binoculars with her. She would be
needing a telescope to see stars in the sky. Phoenix also has heavy doubts
about what the real purpose of her camera is, too. The Judge will ask you
if the camera is really relevant to this case. Choose "Press further" of
course. Lotta will change this line of testimony to the following:
-The camera was set up to take pictures of a meteor shower.
Pressing this statement will get you nowhere. But wait! Her camera was set
to automatic-reponding to loud noises. Shhoting stars are too far away to
that sentence will damage his case. Gumshoe said earlier that Lotta had
enlarged the picture. Well, that must be what she was about to say. Phoenix
will ponder what to do. Choose "Make her show the enlargement". It couldn't
hurt you at this point.
Lotta will admit that she really did
presented yet, though? Lotta remarks
show it in court. She will then show
who is really shooting in the photo.
Record.
Phoenix will now wonder what to do before the case is over. Choose to
"Object to the enlargement". There must be something wrong with it. You
will now need to point to the part that is strange. Remember the pistol
accepted as evidence several testimonies ago? There were fingerprints on
the gun. Problem was, they were of Edgeworth's RIGHT hand. Look at who is
shooting in the picture. They are using their left hand. Point at the hand
the murderer is using. This part of the picture contradicts another piece
of evidence. You'll need to show what eveidence it contradicts.
Present the Pistol here. Phoenix will recap what I just said, and that the
man couldn't have been Edgeworth. However, who the hell did the murderer
shoot? There is only one other person that could have been shot from your
obvious list of choices. Choose "The victim himself". This basically means
that the murderer commited suicide.
von Karma will laugh at your attempt to make way of the situation. Suicide
was impossible. The victim was shot, upon further examination, from a
distance of about 1 to 3 feet. There is no way it could be suicide at this
point. The AUTOPSY REPORT will be updated in the Court Record to make note
of this situation.
That will end this day of trial. The Judge sees that with all of this new
information a verdict is now impossible to be determined. The Judge orders
both you and Karma to investigate further into this mess and see if there
are any other suspects that may have some place in this crime.
---------------------------------------------Date-December 26, 1:15 PM
Location-District Court; Defendant Lobby No. 2
---------------------------------------------Edgeworth is still depressed since he still hasn't been declared innocent
just yet. He still claims he didn't kill the man. Edgeworth also wants you
to say thanks to Maya. Phoenix will have also requested Lotta's testimony
as it may help in court tomorrow. LOTTA'S DEPOSITION will be added to the
Court Record.
===================
Day 2-Investigation
===================
----------------------------------------Date-December 26
Location-Detention Center; Visitor's Room
----------------------------------------This is a familar place to Maya. She decided to do something just because
she felt like she needed too. Damn good thing too or you would have been
Talk about "Today's trial" and she will reflect more on how she will do
better next time she is a witness. Talk about "Gourdy" next. She really
wants to catch a picture of Gourdy so she can be famous. Heh.
Ask about "Making it up" last. Lotta actually has some information for you
that von Karma didn't want her to sya in court. However, she's putting a
price on it. Choose "Deal". She wants information in exchange for the
information you need. She wants proof of Gourdy's existance, or
alternatively proof that Gourdy is a big hoax. No, your personal opinion
doesn't count. She will head back to the campsite so you can find her there
later. Head into the public beach.
-------------------------------Date-December 26
Location-Gourd Lake Public Beach
-------------------------------Once you arrive here you will notice that Larry seems to have decorated the
entire place to boost sales. He has hoisted raises flags all over the place
as well as add a giant Steel Samurai inflatable...thing right in the center
of the beach area. Heh.
Larry will appear. Kiyance gave Larry the idea of doing all this stuff to
boost the Samurai Dogs' sales. Talk to him about "Edgeworth". You will
remember Edgeworth transferred schools from the DL-6 Incident. Uh-huh.
Ask about "The big samurai". Apparently, the kids love the giant Samurai
balloon. It wasn't inflated yesterday because Larry's compressor was
broken. Note the little unit to the right of the Samurai's base. That's the
compressor.
Examine the compressor to learn a little bit more about it. Also take note
of the flags hanging from the Steel Samurai as they will come in handy
later on. Head back to the Police Department to look for Gumshoe.
-------------------------------------------Date-December 26
Location-Police Department; Criminal Affairs
-------------------------------------------Gumshoe is here in the office, and here to stay for a while. Ask about "The
investigation". Another meeting is scheduled soon and the topic of
discussion is going to be Edgeworth's ulterior motive. Edgeworth's father
was killed from the DL-6 Incident, and the only possible suspect was
declared innocent thanks to Robert Hammond. Therefore, he hates him and may
be the reason he killed him (supposedly). This information is likely to hit
court tomorrow.
Ask about "Gourdy" next. Gumshoe doesn't know anything about Gourdy, but
gets annoyed that you're wasting precious investigative time searching for
a sea monster. Phoenix will explain the situation to Gumshoe. Gumshoe is
now able to help you with your search. He is willing to lend you one of
three secret weapons the department has for finding critical evidence.
Ask about "Secret weapons" next. The first secret weapon is "Missile". Not
a weapon of mass destruction, but rather a cute looking K-9 police dog, but
is still in training.
that Lotta has been thinking about. Let's break the bad news to her.
------------------------Date-December 26
Location-Gourd Lake Woods
------------------------Lotta will be here. She has toned done the sound requirements to set off
the camera so now, when Maya sneezes, the entire roll is set off again.
No time to play around. Talk about "Gourdy". When she asks if you have
found any information, say "Gourdy doesn't exist" of course. Choose "Is
here" because you are holding the proof you need in the Court Record. The
proof Gourdy doesn't exist is the Air Tank, so present that. Phoenix will
explain the situation. There was a "bang" sound when it flew off, right?
The tank and Samurai fell into the lake. And oh so convienently, a couple
was taking a picture at that same time. Gourdy is nothing but the deflated
Steel Samurai costume.
This depressed Lotta a bit, but a deal's a deal. She's willing to give you
your information now. Talk about "Case information" now. She heard the cops
around the lake yesterday saying that there is going to be another witness
to appear in court tomorrow. His identity is the old man who is the
caretake of the boat rental shop nearby.
Before you go check it out, Lotta has something else related to the night
of the murder. Her camera clicked twice, remember? You only got one of the
photos. However, the photo contains nothing but the lake so she assumed it
would be useless in court. It still may be useless but nonetheless she will
hand it over to you. SECOND LAKE PHOTO will be added to the Court Record.
Let's check out the boat rental shop now.
------------------------Date-December 26
Location-Boat Rental Shop
------------------------Maya comments there still seems to be nobody around here. Move into the
caretaker's shack.
-------------------------Date-December 26
Location-Caretaker's Shack
-------------------------As soon as you enter you will see the slightly insane caretaker of the
shop. He is an old man, fumbling back and forth. He will mistake Maya as
his daughter (or granddaughter or...something) Meg and Phoenix as Keith.
Okay...the man now thinks the boat rental shop is a pasta resturant. He
will also make a notion to his parrot, Polly. The old duff will then fall
asleep on the spot.
There are two things you must examine to continue. First, see the safe
above the broken television? The safe is locked. There could be something
valuable to the case in there, but you don't know the pass numbers. Next,
examine the parrot. The parrot responds only to its name, and it does say
a couple of other things if you happen to know the secret words. PARROT
will be added to the Court Record.
Talk to the man about "Polly". The other topics will get you nowhere. Polly
knows everything important that Uncle tells him. Maya will then ask what
the combonation to the safe is. The parrot will respond it is "1228". The
old man is angered, and he won't let you open the safe of course! He could
just switch the combonation lock code though...
Now, to get the man talking you will need to present your Attorney's Badge
to him. He finally agrees to help you on the details of the murder, however
he will only do so on one condition. You will need to promise to run the
Wet Noodle when he's long dead. Lie and "Promise to run the Noodle".
To get the man to discuss the events of the murder, present the Lake Photo.
The old man claims he has seen this picture, then requests you start
calling him dad. He claims he saw everything. Ask about "What you saw" now.
It was dark outside and he forgot the time, then he heard a loud "bang"
from outside. He then heard a second "bang". He saw a man fall into the
water. A while later the boat returns to the dock. A young man walked by
the shop, muttering something to himself. The man forgets what he said, but
promises he'll remember by court tomorrow.
Before you leave, Maya will ask the parrot one more question. She'll ask if
they are forgetting something. He will respond "Don't forget DL-6!" What
did that thing just say? How the hell does it know anything about DL-6?
WHO IS this guy? You'll leave the shop now.
You should ask Gumshoe about that guy. He's still in the police department.
-------------------------------------------Date-December 26
Location-Police Department; Criminal Affairs
-------------------------------------------Ask Gumshoe about "The boat caretaker". Gumshoe will confirm that he will
be appearing in court tomorrow as a witness. Unfortunately, he doesn't know
the identity of that man. Because he wasn't very persuasive or very sure of
himself, Lotta was called to the stand yesterday. Ask about "The DL6
Incident". If you are able to convince Gumshoe that the DL-6 Incident has
some importance on the current case, he will allow you to see the files
containing information about the case.
We just learned the importance. Present the Parrot to Gumshoe. Gumshoe will
act surprised to learn that the parrot was taught to remember the name of
the incident. The only way she would know that word is if the old man was
related to the incident. Gumshoe is sure the incident has resemblance on
this case. You can access the records room now.
---------------------------------------Date-December 26
Location-Police Department; Records Room
---------------------------------------Maya will quickly locate the DL-6 file. You'll need to ask her which parts
you want to hear. Obviously you want (and need) to hear all of them. Start
with "The case summary".
DL-6 CASE SUMMARY-This all occured on December 28, 2001. That is 15 years
ago from the next two days! The case is closed after that. The incident
took place in the elevator inside the district court. That's the same court
the current case is being held in as well. At around 2:00 PM that day there
was a terrible earthquake. The building lost power after that. In the stuck
elevator were three people. It wasn't until after 7:00 PM, five hours
later, that they were rescued. The elevator lacked an oxygen supply so the
passengers quickly became oxygen deprived and unconscious. One of the
people has been shot through the heart. That was Edgeworth's father. This
means that one of the other passengers of the elevator was Miles Edgeworth,
because he saw his dad get shot. But, who is the third person? Tell Maya to
get the "Victim data" next.
DL-6 VICTIM DATA-Gregory Edgeworth, 35. He was a defense attorney at the
time. If he were still alive he would be 50 years old. On the day of the
incident he had lost a court case and had gotten aboard the elevator with
his son Miles. This confirms Miles was on the elevator. The angle of the
bullet in the picture proves that Gregory did not commit suicide in the
elevator. The murder weapon, which was a pistol, was found in the elevator.
The pistol has been fired two times apparently. Phoenix will note that this
sounds EXACTLY like the current case. Tell Maya to dig up the "Suspect
data" now.
DL-6 SUSPECT DATA-The main suspect of the case was Yanni Yogi. He was a
clerk inside the court, or a bailiff. He was the third person that was
trapped in the elevator. This makes it perfectly logical he would have done
it, however, he was found innocent thanks to Robert Hammond, the victim in
this case. Yogi was oxygen deprived severely in the elevator so he is
claimed to have had severe brain damage. He lost all memory of ever being
in the elevator. Once the incident was over, he disappeared and was never
heard from again.
That's all the information there is on the DL-6 Incident. There's too much
stuff here to take it all with you, so you will just take the essentials
for court. DL-6 CASE FILE will be added to the Court Record. You can check
this in the Court Record at any time. It basically summarizes the important
details I just outlined above. You'll be needing this file very soon. Court
is starting tomorrow. Get ready.
===========
Day 3-Trial
===========
---------------------------------------Date-December 27, 10:00 AM
Location-District Court; Courtroom No. 3
---------------------------------------For a bit of comic relief, von Karma is predicting that he has so much
sufficient evidence that the trial will end in a guilty verdict in three
minutes. What a lovely estimate.
von Karma will then call the old caretaker to the stand. His identitiy
still hasn't been confirmed yet. The man won't state his name. Choose to
"Raise an objection". von Karma will point out that this is trivial matter
and is irrelevant to the case. That, and he doesn't remember his own name.
His memory is limited to the past few years. However, since the murder
occured a few days ago he is more than capable of testifying. The Judge
will now allow the man to testify.
------------------------------------------~Uncle's Testimony-The Night of the Murder~
-------------------------------------------
-It was the night of the 24th, just after midnight, ayup.
-I was in the resturant...where I er...rent boats as usual.
-Then I heard a "bang!" Ayup.
-When I looked out the window, I saw a boat just a' floating on the lake.
-Then I heard another "bang."
-Just about then the boat comes back to shore, and a man walks past my
window.
Make sure you choose to "Cross-examine". Screw von Karma's three minute
prediction. These facts are quite solid. You will need to press Uncle's
sixth statement, about hown someone walked past his window. He will confirm
that the man was Edgeworth. His line of testimony will change to this:
-That man was the defendant...he was saying "I can't believe he's dead."
Press Uncle again on this new statement. Uncle will confirm that he is
positive that the man was Edgeworth. Then Uncle will collapse upon the
floor. Phoenix realises that von Karma set up this statement so that he
would fall into pressing it and into his trap. You sure better "Raise an
objection" or this will end fast.
Remember, Edgeworth couldn't have fired off the gun. von Karma will easily
explain that Edgeworth wiped off his fingerprints once he fired the gun.
That could be true.
You need to "Raise an objection" again. Phoenix will say that the witness
could easily be lying as there isn't any other proof to back up his claims.
However, von Karma will stop you and say that you'll need evidence to
prove him wrong. The Judge will now declare Edgeworth guilty.
YOU LOSE! Oh...wait. Just after the verdict is called somebody decides to
stop the trial. It is none other than Larry. Remember that Larry was also
at the lake late on Christmas Eve. He confirms that he knows something
about this case. He wasn't sure of himself so he delayed calling himself a
witness for a while, but this trial has made him remember everything. He
knows something about the gunshots. Larry realised that something Uncle
said didn't match with what Larry had witnessed. Thus, he demands to
testify on the matter.
The Judge declares that is custom to provide an inaccurate verdict. Every
witness needs to be heard. Thusly, the Judge temperarily withdrawls his
guilty verdict, then calls for a five minute recess.
---------------------------------------------Date-December 27, 10:28 AM
Location-District Court; Defendant Lobby No. 2
---------------------------------------------Maya will ask Edgeworth why his fingerprints are all over the gun. When the
man fell into the lake Edgeworth became seriously confused. He wasn't able
to think straight. Without a second thought he saw the pistol infront of
him and just picked it up. He had no reason to do so, but he did...
Edgeworth will also comment that this is your chance to screw von Karma.
Hard. He has only run perfect trials, with perfectly prepared witnesses
and perfectly prepared evidence. This is the first time he has ever had
another witness appear unexpectedly. Everything hinges on Larry's testimony
now.
---------------------------------------Date-December 27, 10:35 AM
Location-District Court; Courtroom No. 3
---------------------------------------Nothing exciting off the bat since von Karma can't really do much. Larry's
testimony better be good...
-----------------------------------------------~Larry Butz's Testimony-The Night of the Murder~
------------------------------------------------That night, I was out in a boat on the lake.
-I was looking for something, and I, er, found it.
-So I quietly slipped the boat in at the rental shop deck.
-Then, just as I was thinking about going home, I heard this "bang"!
-I looked out over the lake, but I didn't notice the boat.
-So after I heard that single gunshot, I went home.
Press the first statement. Larry says he left the dock at around 11:00 PM.
Press the third statement next, about slipping the boat back in. Larry
guesses he was searching for around an hour, so it was somewhere around
midnight by the time he arrived back at the dock. This makes sense since a
gunshot went off at 12:15.
Press Larry's fifth statement. He didn't notice any boat while Uncle did.
Isn't that odd? It was very foggy that night and Larry isn't entirely sure
whether he did see the boat of not. That gets us nowhere. Fast.
Press his last statement. Larry confirms he heard only a single "bang"
before he headed home. However, Lotta testified yesterday and Uncle
testified today that they heard TWO gunshots go off. Present Lotta's
Deposition at Larry's last statement. Larry now isn't sure that he even
heard the second gunshot because he may have missed it. He was actually
listening to something else. He was listening to his radio with headphones
on. Not sure why he would use headphones on a quiet, desolate night, but
that's Larry. With all this seemingly pointless information into play,
choose to "Continue" with his testimony.
----------------------------------------~Larry Butz's Testimony-What Larry Heard~
-----------------------------------------It's lonely, being alone on Christmas Eve!
-That's why I was listening to an all-requests show on the radio, see?
-I was listening to it real booming loud, like.
don't know his name. It isn't because you don't know who it is, it's
because he hasn't told you yet! The murderer must be the caretaker of the
boat rental shop. Phoenix claims that the real scene of the crime was not
actually on a boat. The Judge now asks you that if it wasn't on the boat,
where was it?
Move the cursor onto the boat rental shop on the map and present that. von
Karma will object to this right away. Where's the proof? Recall Larry's
testimony for a minute. Larry was searching for something that night and he
found it. Just as he was heading for him he heard a gunshot. He was wearing
headphones at a loud volume at the time. The only way he could hear a
gunshot if it was close by. What was the closest thing to him? The boat
rental shop, of course! Phoenix will now explain what must have happened.
The testimony music will play, but, you won't cross examine yourself. Hah.
--------------------------------------------------~Phoenix Wright's Explanation-What Really Happened~
---------------------------------------------------That night, the caretaker of the boat shop called Robert Hammond to his
shop.
-This was around 11:50.
-That was when the gunshot that Larry heard was fired.
-After that, the caretaker put on Robert Hammond's coat...
-He became Robert Hammond!
-Then he got in the boat with Edgeworth, and went out into the middle of
the lake.
The Judge will ask who fired the Pistol after that statement. Choose "The
boat shop caretaker".
-Of course, it was the murderer who shot the pistol.
-He shot twice. Both missed Edgeworth on purpose.
von Karma will ask you now why the murderer had reasons to shoot twice.
Choose "To create a witness".
-The murderer lifts his pistol and fires one shot.
-That ensures that anyone who heard the shot would look at the lake.
-Indeed, Ms. Hart did exactly that after hearing the first gunshot.
-Next! The murderer waits a bit and he fires again.
-Then...the murderer jumps from the boat himself!
-Leaving the pistol in the boat behind him.
Phoenix then explains the murderer went back to the boat shop, put back
the coat on Hammonds body, and flung him into the lake. These are the
events that occured that night on Gourd Lake.
The Judge will order the bailiff to bring out Uncle so that he can testify
under these new circumstances.
In the meantime, the Judge will ask Edgeworth several questions. Edgeworth
will confirm that the majority of what Phoenix said was correct. Several
days ago he recieved a letter that was signed by Robert Hammond. He asked
to stop by the boat rental shop on Christmas Eve. He had to discuss
something with him. Edgeworth won't say what it was, though.
The bailiff will return and announce that the old man has disappeared. He
isn't at the boat rental shop either. The Judge will order that the old man
must be captured at all costs as he is critical to the outcome of this
trial. The Judge can't declare a verdict right now with all this confusion
going about. You have one more day to find the truth, the old man, and his
actual name.
-----------------------------------------------Date-December 27, 1:22 PM
Location-District Court; Defendant's Lobby No. 2
-----------------------------------------------Good job saving Edgeworth again for the day. He will mention to you that
something has been troubling him for many years. He isn't sure whether or
not he should tell you. It's about some nightmare he has been having. A
memory of a crime he thinks he comitted.
===================
Day 3-Investigation
===================
--------------------------------Date-December 27 2:11 PM
Location-Wright & Co. Law Offices
--------------------------------Edgeworth's murder memory strikes at a severely bad time. Whatever it is,
he will likely confess that in court and get a guilty verdict anyways, even
if you manage to save him.
Just then, Larry will arrive on the scene. Talk to him about "Today's
trial" and Phoenix will admit he'd be screwed if Larry didn't show up. He
suggests you check out the old boat shop caretaker. As if that wasn't
obvious enough.
Talk about "Edgeworth" next. Maya asks why you trust him so much. Phoenix
will then explain his whole backstory with Edgeworth. He did, once, want to
become a defense attorney like his father. Talk about "The class trial".
Back in fourth grade, somebody's lunch money was stolen. Phoenix wasn't
around when it occurred, so suspicion he did it became apparent. He was
held on trial in class (note he had spiky hair back then...). Just then,
young Miles stood up in Phoenix's defense. Larry then comes in and states
that everybody is acting like a total jerk. Hah.
After that day, the three of them became friends. That still doesn't
explain why Edgeworth is now a prosecutor. Talk about "Edgeworth's goals"
now. Phoenix explains Edgeworth wanted to be a defense attorney, but after
several months transferred to another school. This is related to the DL-6
Incident. Phoenix couldn't get in touch with Edgeworth, and thusly became
a defense attorney for the sole purpose of meeting him. Wow. That's a
stupid way to set a goal. Let's talk to Edgeworth about this.
----------------------------------------Date-December 27
Location-Detention Center; Visitor's Room
----------------------------------------Talk to Edgeworth about "Why prosecute?" Edgeworth's father war killed and
the only person who could have done it was declared innocent. Edgeworth
confesses that after that day he despised criminals and would do anything
to get them locked away. Ask him then about "Prosecutor von Karma".
Remember that he is Edgeworth's mentor. Everything Edgeworth knows was
derived from him. Especially his attitude. Hah. He's a complete freak-a
total perfectionist. Edgeworth admits that given von Karma's actions he
will likely be declared guilty. Head back to Gourd Lake. Time to find that
old man again.
---------------------------------Date-December 27
Location-Gourd Lake Park; Entrance
---------------------------------You will find Detective Gumshoe back at the park, obviously looking for the
old man. He will become determined to catch that jerk for you, and then he
will run off. There's also one other thing. Remember that "No camping" sign
in Lotta's campsite? The park warden found out and nobody can go to the
woods today. Not as if you really need to head there. Head for the public
beach now.
--------------------------------Date-December 27
Location-Gourd Lake; Public Beach
--------------------------------Phoenix will notice the large Steel Samurai balloon and attaching flags are
missing. Larry's probably been too busy to care about his stand for the
moment. Head for the boat rental shop.
------------------------Date-December 27
Location-Boat Rental Shop
------------------------For whatever reason, Grossberg has come all the way out here. He suggests
that if you find anything important that you should stop by his office.
There is only one place right now that could hold anything of such value.
The old man is out, which means the perfect oppertunity to sneak into his
shack and open the safe!
-------------------------Date-December 27
Location-Caretaker's Shack
-------------------------Once you are in the shack, you'll find Polly has been left alone in here.
That's sad. Examine the safe now and Maya will be delighted to open it up.
You will find a single piece of paper inside the safe.
The letter starts off by saying to get your revenge on Edgeworth. The rest
of the letter is telling somebody that it's his last chance to do this and
get revenge on the two people who ruined his life. The remainder of the
letter goes on about how to kill Hammond and frame Edgeworth. You will be
shocked to find out that almost everything Phoenix explained in court
yesterday was actually true. It was all part of the plans to frame
Edgeworth. This means the caretaker didn't decide to kill Hammond, he was
merely following instructions! But why would he do so? This confirms he is
the murderer, but that doesn't tell us who wrote the letter. Have an idea?
LETTER FROM THE SAFE will be added to the Court Record. You need to show
this letter to Edgeworth now.
----------------------------------------Date-December 27
Location-Detention Center; Visitor's Room
----------------------------------------Present the Letter from the Safe to Edgeworth. Edgeworth assumes somebody
else is behind this murder. Edgeworth and Hammond are the victims. But why?
The letter also mentions it is his last chance to get revenge. This makes
sense because the statue of limitations on the case at hand, DL-6, runs out
tomorrow.
As if this isn't bad enough, Edgeworth will begin to think who the old man
really is. He believes he is Yanni Yogi, the only suspect originally in the
DL-6 Incident. Ask about "Yanni Yogi" now. Yogi was a court baliff during
the incident. He too was trapped in the elevator. He was declared innocent
due to severe brain damage.
Now you can talk to Edgeworth about "The nightmare". Edgeworth has had the
same nightmare for over 15 years. He keeps dreaming that he killed his
father in that elevator. When Edgeworth flung the pistol, it shot off and
a loud scream was heard. He's not sure if it was from his father or now,
but he's sure it was.
Well that certainly doesn't help you. We have some important evidence, yes?
Let's pay a visit to Grossberg.
-----------------------------Date-December 27
Location-Grossberg Law Offices
-----------------------------Grossberg has a lot to talk about now. Maya will explain that Edgeworth
believes that he really killed his father. He will explain that Yogi holds
a deep enough grudge against Edgeworth that he framed him for murder. Then,
perhaps his dream actually is real. Because being a suspect ruined his
career, he must have had no choice but to get revenge on the one who ruined
his life.
Talk about "Gregory Edgeworth" now. Gregory was a top defense attorney back
then. Gregory also deeply hated von Karma's technique of declaring his
clients guilty. von Karma, after all, has forged many a testimony and piece
of evidence. Gregory planned to call attention to his techniques in court,
but he failed. He died soon thereafter, in the elevator.
Ask about "The spirit medium". Remember, Misty was the one who channeled
Gregory Edgeworth to talk about who really killed him. He said that Yanni
Yogi killed him. But Yogi was found innocent. This means Gregory lied, and
most likely for the reason he wanted to protect Miles. That's only a
possibility, though.
Time to present the Letter from the Safe. Grossberg will suspect Hammond
was killed because he was a skilled defense attorney, but defended clients
for his sake. He didn't care much about his clients at all. Yogi became a
free man again, but in reality his life was ruined thanks to Hammond.
Grossberg then realises he is familar with the handwriting on the letter.
He'll ask you if you know who it is. Choose "Manfred von Karma".
Now it is starting to make sense. Grossberg will remember that this really
is von Karma's handwriting. He must have told Yogi to kill Hammond and
fram Edgeworth. Ask about "Prosecutor von Karma" now. This means von Karma
knows that Edgeworth killed his own father. He will likely state that in
court tomorrow, too. He will then mention that 15 years ago von Karma and
Gregory were in a court case. von Karma won, of course, but something else
happened. Ask about "Gregory vs. Manfred". Gregory, after the verdict,
declared von Karma of faulty evidence. This accusation stood and was the
only penalty that von Karma has recieved in his 40 year long career. von
Karma then took a vacation for several months. It was the only vacation he
has ever taken. We need to know why. The deal to his perfect record isn't
the real answer, likely enough.
Grossberg suggests that if you are so sure he is innocent that you go check
the records again. Head back to the records room for the final trump card.
-------------------------------------------Date-December 27
Location-Police Department; Criminal Affairs
-------------------------------------------An officer will allow you into the record room because von Karma is already
in there. You're allowed as long as he's in there. He beat you to it! We
should hurry and stop that man!
---------------------------------------Date-December 27
Location-Police Department; Records Room
---------------------------------------You, fortunately, won't find von Karma right away. He must be searching for
something else to use in the case. Notice that there is a drawer hanging
open on the right wall. Examine it to find that it contains Unsolved Cases
Evidence. The DL-6 Incident file is completely missing. This must mean von
Karma has recently taken it.
von Karma will suddenly show up, looking as cool and badass as ever. Notice
the files he is carrying under his arm. Talking to him will only confirm
your suspicions that he will bring up the DL-6 Incident again tomorrow in
court. Now it's time to present the Letter from the Safe. von Karma will
admit that he wrote the letter. von Karma will then bring up a stun gun.
He is about to stun Phoenix, but Maya starts tackling von Karma. von Karma
will win, though, then stuns both of you and runs away with the letter.
In the short brawl, Maya stole a piece of evidence that von Karma was
carrying. It happens to be a bullet. It's from the DL-6 Incident, and was
retrieved from the heart of Gregory Edgeworth. DL-6 BULLET will be added
to the Court Record. With the useful evidence stolen, how can you win
court tomorrow?
===========
Day 4-Trial
===========
---------------------------------------------Date-December 28, 9:51 AM
Location-District Court; Defendant Lobby No. 2
---------------------------------------------Maya will be frying everybody she touches. The electricity must not have
worn off inside of her yet. Gumshoe will appear and gladly confirm that he
captured the old man.
---------------------------------------Date-December 28, 10:00 AM
Location-District Court; Courtroom No. 3
---------------------------------------The identity of the caretaker, as we know is Yanni Yogi, still hasn't been
told to the court. It's best if we wait until the best possible time to
reveal that. Yogi will then give a testimony.
----------------------------------------~Yanni Yogi's Testimony-Why I Left Court~
-----------------------------------------Er, I'm really sorry about just leaving yesterday like I did.
-But I wasn't running away or nothing.
-I, uh, went to buy some food for Polly, see...
-I figured I got nothing to do with this incident anyhow.
-Er...I mean, I'd need one of this "motive" things, right? And I don't got
one.
Unless you want some von Karmic objections, stick to pressing only Yogi's
fourth statement. Phoenix claims that if he had lost his memory, how would
he know he really has nothing to do with this incident? Phoenix boldly
states he knows who he is. The Judge will ask if Yogi's memory has anything
to do with the current case. It sure does. All of his statements are lies.
You will now need to tell who his name is. Obviously, choose "Yanni Yogi".
Unfortunately, you will need more proof than just an assumption. Phoenix
will claim that his fingerprints should be taken. von Karma will state that
such an action is impossible. Where this man used to work he had burned his
hands. He has NO fingerprints. Well, that's great!
von Karma will laugh as you struggle to think of another witness. In a
hilariously sarcastic tone, von Karma suggests you cross examine Yogi's
parrot. You know what? That's actually a good idea. It knows about DL-6 so
the little bird might actually know something. Choose "Yes, I'm doing it".
The parrot will now be brought in. Time for the best testimony in the game.
------------------------------------------------~Polly the Parrot's Testimony-Who Is Your Owner?~
-------------------------------------------------Hello! Hello! *squawk*
-...
Well, if that's now that best testimony in history I don't know what it.
I think it should be more than obvious which statement you should pres, if
that actually will do anything. Phoenix will then suggest that Maya asks
Polly a question pertaining to DL-6. Choose "Have we forgotten something?"
Maya will ask Polly this question, but all Polly does is reply hello in
return. What the hell? Did von Karma retrain the bird and trap us into
making her testify?
Press that statement again. Now have Maya ask Polly "What's your name?"
There's a reason this is important. The parrot will respond, of course,
that her name is Polly. The Judge will now ask if this has anything to do
with who the caretaker's identity is. Choose "Of course". von Karma will
laugh and demand proof that the name is related to Yogi. Look at the DL-6
Case File. On page three, suspect data, there are two names mentioned.
Yanni Yogi for starters, and what he did. The other name was his fiancee
who committed suicide after the incident-Polly Jenkins. POLLY. There's a
clear possible connection here. Present the DL-6 Case File.
You will then be asked what page the proof is on. Choose "Suspect Data".
The Judge agrees that while the connection is possible, it's a mere
coincidence. Press this statement a third time. Ask the final question"What's the safe number?" Polly will still respond "1228" as usual. The
Judge will ask again if this has anything to do with who the caretaker is.
Choose "Actually, it does". Once again, present the DL-6 Case File. Do note
that the date of the incident was 12/28. The Judge will ask again what page
the information is found on. Choose "Case Summary".
The Judge now realizes there is a patterns between the events of the DL-6
Incident and the caretaker. Turns out cross examining a bird actually paid
off. DON'T try it in real life! The Judge will now call Yogi back to the
stand.
The caretaker assumes a different pose. He finally confesses that he is
Yanni Yogi. Damn he looks badass. He's been acting like an insane idiot for
over 15 years. Crazy. He confesses to serving in this court all those years
ago. He also admits that he was the one who killed Hammond and framed
Edgeworth for his murder. After finishing the backstory behind his motive,
he will finally be arrested.
Edgeworth, after all this time, is finally declared innocent. von Karma
lost! But wait...Edgeworth objects to the Judge's verdict! He claims that
he isn't innocent whatsoever. Choose "Raise an Objection". von Karma,
however, demands that this new testimony be allowed since it was yesterday.
Edgeworth will breifly explain the situation, then exclaim he is the one
who killed his father. von Karma demands a trial for these new revelations
get held right now. A short recess will now be given.
---------------------------------------------Date-December 28, 2:24 PM
Location-District Court; Defendant Lobby No. 2
---------------------------------------------Edgeworth is ready to be declared guilty. Phoenix, though, is confident
that such will not be the case. He has the evidence to prove that Edgeworth
is actually innocent. You have all the necessary tools, no matter the von
Karmic objection, to prove his innocence once and for all. You'll head back
into court after that.
Phoenix claims, again, that the murderer took the second bullet with him.
The Judge will then ask why the murderer had taken the bullet in the first
place. Choose "The murderer didn't need it". Mia will pop up once again and
mention that "...he had to take it..." and "...you're thinking too normal,
think crazy...". That's a great message to know. So, think why the bullet
HAD to have been taken.
Phoenix now begins to understand what is happening. The murderer didn't
have a choice of whether or not to take the bullet with him that day. What
if the murderer had been shot? Miles and Yogi weren't injured when they
were found, so who was shot? This means that the murderer was actually
outside of the elevator the entire time.
von Karma will quickly stop you and keep saying that such a theory is
impossible. He seems worried about something. Maya then thinks of something
really crazy. Grossberg told you yesterday that Gregory Edgeworth had put
a penalty on von Karma's perfect record. Then he took a vacation. If this
is true, von Karma was shot and took the vacation in order to heal himself!
This is the only possibility! von Karma must be the murderer in this case.
It truly makes sense now. von Karma was at the scene of the crime-the
courtroom that day for obvious reasons. He has a complete motive to murder
Gregory. The Judge will now ask if you know the name of the murderer.
Choose to "Say it now". The truth must be revealed.
Edgeworth will look surprised. So will von Karma and the Judge. von Karma
sees no reason to object to this babble. He will then ask that you prove
he was shot. He would need surgery, of course, to get the bullet removed.
He orders you to get the doctor he used as proof. Of course, he wouldn't
say something so stupid if it wasn't true. Edgeworth will say he couldn't
have had surgery. A doctor would be a witness. This means that the bullet
would still be inside of him to this day.
von Karma now states that if what you claim is true, the bullet is still
inside his shoulder. He tells you to show proof, so choose "Show evidence".
There is only one item you have that can prove that-the seemingly useless
metal detector!
As soon as you present that von Karma will freak out and start sweating
like crazy. It is now obvious he has a bullet in his shoulder. The Judge
will permit the useage of the metal detector. Behold, it goes off around
von Karma's shoulder.
von Karma isn't ready to admit to his guilt yet. He will now claim that he
had the bullet there ever since before the DL-6 Incident. You now have to
prove the bullet in his shoulder is connected to this incident. There's
only one thing now that can link him to this case. Present the DL-6 Bullet
to hammer the final nail in von Karma's deathbed. The evidence states that
the ballistic markings are still very clear on the bullet. Remember that
ballistic markings can be used to tell what gun a bullet was fired from.
Thusly, if the ballistic markings from this bullet match the ballistic
markings of the bullet found in von Karma's shoulder, then it would prove
that they came from the same gun.
It's over for von Karma. Realzing the impossible, von Karma will scream an
impossible to describe scream. Edgeworth will quickly realize that von
Karma's scream is the one that has been haunting him in his nightmare all
these years. The entire case has been figured out. When Edgeworth threw
the gun it shot off. However, the first bullet shot through the elevator
door and into von Karma, who promptly screamed. When the doors opened, von
Karma was standing there facing his most hated rival who dealt a blow to
his perfect record. The perfect crime, no witness's and the only other
people there unconcious. He decided to give payback to the one person who
ruined his life-Gregory Edgeworth.
This also clears up another story. When Gregory Edgeworth was contacted by
Misty Fey, he lied about who killed him. However, he couldn't have known
who killed him since he was unconcious when it occured.
von Karma has finally faced defeat. He will slam his head against the wall
in agony, and utter victory will be yours. After a long case like that, I
wouldn't say that's a bad thing!
---------------------------------------------Date-December 28, 5:38 PM
Location-District Court; Defendant Lobby No. 2
---------------------------------------------Everybody, including Gumshoe and Lotta, will come by to express how happy
they are in your success. Larry stops by, too, and hands Edgeworth an
envelope containing $38.00 exactly. Larry then admits he was the one who
stole Edgeworth's money back in the fourth grade. All those years wanting
to become a defense attorney for nothing, Phoenix!
--------------------------------Date-December 28, 5:02 AM
Location-Wright & Co. Law Offices
--------------------------------It's early in the morning, and Phoenix will awake with a headache. He will
notice a note lying near his bed. Maya will admit she is useless to him
and wants to go back to her spirit medium training. Phoenix will run to the
train station to stop her. Maya still happens to be there. He will admit
that he couldn't have solved this case without her. Present the DL-6 Bullet
to her to show she wasn't useless.
Maya promises that as soon as she finishes her training she will come right
back to help Phoenix out again. Hopefully you don't get into too much
trouble until then.
Phoenix will comment that after all these events he is no longer an amateur
attorney, but rather an ace attorney now. Hell yeah. The credits will now
roll, showing the majority of the characters you have met along the way.
They will talk to you a bit, generally about what they've been up to. Most
of them seem to have forgotten Phoenix...
At the very end, Phoenix will yell "HOLD IT!" and a fifth case will become
unlocked. If you recall, Phoenix Wright is a mere port of GS1 in Japan,
made for the GBA. It had only these first four cases. This new fifth case
was made especially for the DS. You won't find this case in Japan. Hope
you enjoy it!
==========================================
~9.Episode 5-Rise from the Ashes~
==========================================
Begin the final case of the game to see an odd introduction. It is a dark
and stormy night. The silouette of somebody holding a knife appears, then
splits into two seperate images and pans into two different buildings. A
knife is thrown, some glass shatters, the silouette of a familar mascot can
be scene breifly, and finally what appears to be a woman is seen holding a
jammed knife in somebody...
You will find out everything you just saw is connected to one another. And
what a case this is going to be.
===================
Day 1-Investigation
===================
Phoenix starts to talk after the previous series of events. It has been two
months since Maya left, and in that time he hasn't accepted any cases. He
has had offers as a recongnized defense attorney, but he's turned them all
down. One day, though, a girl showed up.
--------------------------------Date-February 22, 10:02 AM
Location-Wright & Co. Law Offices
--------------------------------Phoenix seems really depressed. The person he was just talking about
appears. She comments that her sister's trial is going on tomorrow. She
thinks you're Mia Fey. Haha. She seems to know your name from the Edgeworth
case earlier, though. She begs that her sister needs saving, and Phoenix
gets a flashback to the second case. This sounds kinda similar. Phoenix
finally gives in.
She will introduce herself as Ema Skye. She is a scientific investigator.
Talk to her about "Ema" first. You will find out that she's only 16 years
old and still in high school. So, technically, she's only training to be a
scientific investigator. Ask her about "The case" now. She will mention
that her sister didn't do any crime and didn't stab somebody with a knife.
Oh joy, yet another murder case. She claims, sadly, that there is a witness
that saw her do it. She asks that you go talk to her to get the facts
straight. She mentions at the end her sister told Ema to get Mia. Hmm.
Ask about "Sci. Investigator" next. She seems really energetic about her
future career and stuff. She knows her sister will be declared not guilty
if the case is handled scientifically. She mentions that she has discovered
a new way of handling cases.
Ask about "Relation to Mia" last. Ema's sister specifically requested her
to defend her. Mia was only a few years below her in school. She told Mia
to go to her if Ema ever needed a defense attorney, and now is as good a
time as ever to have one. Ema also says that she hates what her sister has
become lately. Her parents are dead so Ema's sister is her only family.
This still doesn't explain the case. Head over to the Detention Center.
----------------------------------------Date-February 22
Location-Detention Center; Visitor's Room
----------------------------------------You will find Ema's sister standing here with her back to you. She will
turn around and seems to know you right away. That's a first. She will
introduce herself as Lana Skye. She is the Chief Prosecutor for this
prosecutors were involved with. So much info we still need! Let's head to
the High Prosecutor's Office for more answers.
-------------------------------------------Date-February 22
Location-High Prosecutor's Office; Room 1202
-------------------------------------------Wow. What a snazzy room. Pinkish decor, a desk, tons of flowers. The hell
kind of prosecutor has these kinds of things in his office? Ema notices a
trophy right away. She mentions whoever it belongs to must be a real jerk.
And out of total irony, that's when Edgeworth returns to his office. Yes,
HIS office. Ema claims to be Edgeworth's "biggest fan". Ema decides to
insult Edgeworth again by saying a murder took place in an ugly car which,
as he confirms, happens to be his.
Talk to Edgeworth about "The case". Edgeworth recalls Ema as the Chief
Prosecutor's little sister. Edgeworth is also surprised that his car
happens to be the scene of the crime. That, and he's now forced to prove
that Lana is guilty. He explains that he will be the prosecutor in this
case. If he wasn't awesome, I would say that sucks.
Talk about "Edgeworth" next. He's surprised that he's still a prosecutor
mainly because of the rumors circling around. He also mentions how he hates
the award he was given for being a prosecutor.
Ask about "Lana Skye" now. Edgeworth worked with her several years ago. He
also goes on to say he's shocked that she killed somebody in the trunk of
his car, no less with a knife from his toolbox. EDGEWORTH'S KNIFE will be
added to the Court Record.
See the award that Edgeworth won lying on the couch? Examine it. The award
has a big "K" on it, and the shield is slightly broken. Edgeworth pitfully
states it's the "King of Prosecutors" award. Edgeworth seems to hate it,
though. KING OF PROSECUTORS TROPHY added to the Court Record.
Examine the picture of Edgeworth on the wall. For those curious what that
outfit he's wearing is, that was an original design of Edgeworth before he
was made several years younger to throw in the backstory with him and
Phoenix as grade schoolers.
Examine the flowers at the back window. Get a laugh as you'll find out
Wendy Oldbag sent these to Edgeworth. Not sure why, but hey! Examine the
large shelf of case files. Towards the end of the conversation, Phoenix
will picture Gumshoe. Hmm.
Present the Prosecutors Trophy to Edgeworth. He's upset at the pointless
waste of time that the offices spent handing him that trophy. He had to go
to the Police Department to recieve it. He also mentions yesterday was a
very busy day in the prosecutors office.
Ask about "The day of the crime" now. Yesterday was the annual cleaning day
in the Prosecutors Office. Remember the police deal with all sorts of
evidence for solved cases. The police then sort all of the solved case
files, basically getting rid of them. This is called evidence transferal
(remember this!) He also mentions that day was the day of the ceremony
where he recieved that trophy. He was there most of the afternoon and
didn't arrive back at the office until 5:12 PM. Edgeworth cares little for
his memory, so the only way he knows that fact is from hard evidence. He
still has the parking stub he used to get into the parking garage.
EDGEWORTH'S PARKING STUB is added to the Court Record. Upon close
examination, he arrived at 17:12 on 2/21. That's the same as 5:12 PM.
Just then, an officer will burst into Edgeworth's office. He's here to
deliver a report to Edgeworth, mostly concerning the Lana Skye case. The
officer states that isn't what the information is about. Edgeworth gets
ticked off this officer is wasting his time, and the officer gets ticked
as well. He states his name as Officer Mike Meekins. Edgeworth yells at him
to leave, and with his silly report as well.
Edgeworth says he has a lot of work to do, and suggests you head down to
the police station where that officer came from. You might just find
something important there. Head to the Police Department.
----------------------------------Date-February 22
Location-Police Department Entrance
----------------------------------It's true. Phoenix Wright does not have a driver's license. Anyways,
Phoenix will notice a cardboard cutout of something infront of the Police
Station. You should recongnize this as the totally awesome Blue Badger,
defender of evidence and solver of cases...and the police mascot. Ema says
he seems a bit familar.
Somebody happens to be dancing with the Blue Badger. It happens to be none
other than Detective Gumshoe! Talk to him about "The case". Gumshoe advises
you to not defend Lana in court. She has already confessed to the crime so
you're just wasting your time. She claims she summoned Goodman to her
office and killed him there. Gumshoe also says the police hate hearing the
word "faked" these days. Huh.
Ask about "The investigation" next. He admits
Criminal Affairs Department. This murder case
only topped ranked officers and detective are
Affairs Department at this time. Since he had
hang out with a cardboard moving...thing. The
the investigation, explaining why Marshall is
head there just yet.
the cell phone a bit to reveal a blue button on the side of it which opens
it up.
The display of the cell phone is on the redial button. Examine the blue
button that Ema mentions is the redial button. Phoenix will press the
button and you'll hear a familar Steel Samurai tune. Before Ema mentions
who the phone belongs to, Marshall steps in. This phone belongs to Lana
Skye, not the victim! According to the the display, the call Lana made
last nigh right after the murder only lasted a few seconds. Marshall isn't
sure on who she called. Phoenix claims his phone rang as that picked up
Lana's. Yeah, right. CELL PHONE will be added to the Court Record.
You can now talk to Marshall about "Lana Skye". Ema implies that Marshall
and Lana were somehow related. Ask about "Office atmosphere" now. He will
mention that rumors about forged evidence connected to Edgeworth appear to
be true. He was also unbeatable until he went against Phoenix. All of the
rumors lead back to one person-Lana. Edgeworth made deals with Lana in
order to win trials. Phoenix thinks that Gumshoe isn't on this case because
he has a close relation with Edgeworth.
Ema asks how you're doing. Yeah, it's not looking too good right now.
Phoenix also asks if it was actually Ema's phone that just rang instead of
his. This means that at 5:18 PM, right after the murder, Lana called Ema
for only a few seconds. Lana hung up right away, though. CELL PHONE is
added to the Court Record (again).
We have no real leads in this case. But, that's the end of day one. Save
the game and prepare for court.
===========
Day 2-Trial
===========
-----------------------------------------------Date-February 23, 9:34 AM
Location-District Court; Defendant's Lobby No. 2
-----------------------------------------------You'll talk with Lana for a second, then realize you're going into trial
without a Fey helpig you for the first time. Let's see if Phoenix can
actually do something by himself for once.
---------------------------------------Date-February 23, 10:00 AM
Location-District Court; Courtroom No. 9
---------------------------------------Edgey is back! He mentions that a professional witness saw the crime in the
parking lot. Edgeworth will call Angel Starr to the stand. Angel will now
explain her past a bit. Two years ago Angel was a special investigator with
the police force. She was a first-rate homicide detective. The Judge now
remembers her as the Cough-Up Queen, capable of getting anybody to explain
the facts straight out. She'll be explaining thr situation in this case.
She will begin by showing everyone a map of the Underground Parking Lot. As
you remember from earlier, the lot is divided into two seperate lots. The A
Block is made for employees at the Prosecutor's Office while B Block is for
visitor's and clients. There is a fenced divider, what we examined earlier,
that divides both lots. This is erected to keep visitor's from moving into
spaces for the prosecutor's. The crime took place inside the trunk of a car
that was in A Block. The killer, Lana, used a knife to stab the victim and
went to drive the body out. However, she was a witness to this scene and
the police apprehended her immediately. FLOOR PLANS are added to the Court
Record. Now she'll testify to prove she saw Lana.
------------------------------------------~Angel Starr's Testimony-Witness's Account~
-------------------------------------------Somehow, I always knew a day like this would come.
-I was on my way to deliver a lunchbox to my boyfriend...
-When I sensed something...perhaps it was my finely-honed detecive
instincts working.
-Then, through a wire fence, I saw the chief prosecutor standing next to a
garish car.
-The chief prosecutor was holding a knife in her right hand...
-Then, she thrust the pointy tip of the knife into Detective Goodman's
chest!
Uh. No contradictions. Again. Time to start pressing. Press her first
statement. She mentions yet again that she hates prosecutors for their
dirty job. Because evidence is everything, she suspects that Goodman was
killed for knowing too much information. She also notes that she was fired
from her job because of prosecutors.
Press her second sentence and she will mention she was delivering a lunch
to her security guard boyfriend. Not the detective we thought earlier. She
says that because she was a visitor, she was in B Block. This means she
witnessed the crime from B Block.
Now you can skip to her fourth statement, about seeing the murder through
the wire fence. She confirms that is was Edgeworth's car the murder took
place in. Remember that the murder weapon, the knife, was also Edgeworth's.
She confirms that she saw Lana from a distance of no more than thirty feet
away. Phoenix claims that she is a biased witness because of her hate of
prosecutors. She will now present a picture of the exact moment of the
murder. The picture shows Lana facing the open trunk of the car, and she's
wearing a trenchcoat. The CRIME PHOTO will be added to the Court Record.
Note the faint fencing in the picture, proving she took it from behind the
wired fence.
Press Angel's last statement. She will admit she didn't understand what
Lana was doing until it was too late, thusly she couldn't save Goodman.
Now, check the fifth statement. It says that Lana held the knife in her
right hand, and Angel captured the moment of the murder on film. But in
the picture, Lana's not holding a knife at all! Present the Crime Photo
at this statement.
Edgeworth will step in and explain the situation.
before the stabbing, but rather after it occured.
Angel will reply with blood splatter. Despite the
quality, you can see stains on Lana's trenchcoat,
bloodstains.
Next choose to raisn an "Objection", of course. This info contradicts what
Angel just stated. She claims she was slightly unclear with her description
however. She claims that Lana killed Goodman, based on the idea it was a
premediated murder. You will look at the photograph again and Lana will
appear to be wearing gloves. You'll be brought back to her testimony, and
this line will be added:
-The murder was planned! The rubber gloves prove it!
Well, it has never hurt to press a newly added statement so do so.
Edgeworth will claim that these types of gloves are mainly used in
autopsies. Thusly, it makes sense that she was wearing them with the intent
of doing murder. You need to prove a way that the murder wasn't
premediated. Now, this raises a problem. "Premediated" basically means it
was all planned out. Why the hell would Lana forget to bring the most
important thing to a murder:the WEAPON. Present Edgeworth's knife.
Too bad the proof that this wasn't a premediated murder doesn't stop the
fact Lana killed Goodman. Angel will testify again, and things are going to
get a bit more specific.
------------------------------------------~Angel Starr's Testimony-Angel's Deduction~
-------------------------------------------Lana Skye intended to murder Detective Goodman!
-That's why she called the victim all the way to the Prosecutor's Office.
-I'm sure the Chief Prosecutor had a grudge against the victim.
-Nothing else could drive that human machine to plunge the knife in again
and again...
The contradiction here is all too obvious if you looked at the evidence.
Remember, witnesses always slip up on the important details. The most
important one here being either something about a grudge or stabbing
Goodman multiple times. If you looked at the autopsy report, you'd notice
Goodman was stabbed a mere one time. Present Goodman's Autopsy Report at
her final statement.
She thinks that she mistook something for blood. When she lifted the knife,
Angel thought she saw blood on Lana. Perhaps splattered blood from the
victim. This is what led Angel to believe that she has stabbed Goodman
multiple times. The Judge now demands she adds this new statement to her
testimony. The following line is added:
-Her red muffler looked like blood to me...that's how ghastly the whole
scene was.
Press this statement. A muffler, in this case, actually refers to a scarf.
Note that Lana does actually wear this constantly around her neck. She
still seems certain she saw blood on her chest. And now we get to specific
details. Check out the crime photo once again. Lana isn't wearing anything
around her neck, disproving she was wearing her muffler at that time.
Present the Crime Photo.
Edgeworth will step in as soon as you object, and describe everything you
planned on saying. Angel seems determined that she was wearing a scarf, or
at least something red. Now she will testify again. We need to prove Lana
didn't stab Goodman!
-------------------------------------------------~Angel Starr's Testimony-Apprehending the Suspect~
--------------------------------------------------After the murder, the suspect attempted to run behind a partition off to
her side.
-I quickly caught her, explained her rights to her, and arrested her on the
spot.
-When I arrested her, she mentioned the muffler!
-That's what had me confused in my earlier testimony!
-The chief prosecutor made to escape, but against Angel Starr, resistance
is futile!
Press her second statement. We need her to define "quickly" for us. Angel
mentions once again that she was only thirty feet away from the suspect,
making catching her not all too hard of a job. "Press her" for more
details. You will be shown the floor plans again. She witnessed the murder
near the fence in B Block. However, there was a chain link fence infront
of her. She claims that she climbed over the fence. This, however, would
not make it a very quick apprehension since it would take time to climb
over such a tall fence. So, why didn't Lana get away? She clearly had time
to do so...
Press her third statement. Angel doesn't exactly remember what Lana had
said about the muffler, otherwise it would be in her testimony. All Lana
said, infact, was the word muffler. This means she wasn't talking to Angel
but instead was on the phone! Meaning, of course, her own cell phone.
Choose to "Ask further". Lana had first attempted to use the phone hanging
on the wall, but it doesn't work. Thusly, she used her cell phone. LANA'S
CELL PHONE will be updated in the Court Record. She adds this statement to
her testimony as well:
-She gave up trying to use the phone on the wall and just used her cell
phone!
Press this statement. You don't have evidence to disprove this, yet. She
will bring out the floor plans again to show you. The chief prosecutor ran
behind the partition to use the phone planted there. It was out of order,
though. She then pulled out her own cell phone. During that time, Angel
climbed over the fence and apprehended Lana. Note in the picture that Lana
had dropped her cell phone. Phoenix smiles, asking if she "saw" her doing
all this.
That should tip your way to the answer. She COULDN'T have seen any of this
going on, there was a partition blocking the view! Present the Parking Lot
Floor Plans at this new statement. She admits that Edgeworth and Lana had
kicked her out of the police force years ago, revealing that Angel has a
grudge against Lana.
Phoenix will explain the obvious. She couldn't have seen Lana and whatnot.
Edgeworth will now ask you what lie Angel told in her testimony. Angel has
lied about "Where she saw it".
Phoenix will explain that Angel certainly did see Lana make the phone call,
or at least try to, but from a different location. You will now be given
the floor plans and asked to point where Angel could have seen the murder
occur from. There's only once place where it could have happened logically.
No, not the top of the fence. Lana was hugging the partition so it still
wouldn't be high enough. But what about the second floor security room?
Present that as the location.
The Judge states there could be many other places to see Lana, but Phoenix
disproves that. She couldn't have been in A Block since she's not a
prosecutor. Thusly, only the security room gave her the view to see Lana.
Angel has clearly been lying, but she must have a good reason for doing so.
But why? She was in the security room, but said she saw the crime in B
Block. They are two totally different locations. What would be the vitally
changing fact? Choose "Distance to the crime".
So what changed? The guard room is also thirty feet from the scene of the
crime. What matters is the time it took for her to reach the scene of the
crime instead. Her boyfriend wasn't in the security station so she waited,
and saw the crime then. She then found the door leading to the A Block was
locked. She then had to go all the way down a hallway back to B Block. She
mentions it took her about five minutes to reach the scene. But do you have
evidence to disprove any of these claims?
Choose "Raise an objection". Five entire minutes Lana could have spent
running away, but yet she stood where she was. Angel looks freaked out.
The Judge declares that Angel has a grudge against Lana, and thusly there
is a hole in her testimony. He will decide to suspend court for the day,
but Angel yells at him to stop. She will testify one final time, for real,
about some decisive evidence.
------------------------------------------~Angel Starr's Testimony-Decisive Evidence~
-------------------------------------------I should have mentioned those five minutes when I wasn't looking at the
crime scene.
-And now, to the matter of the victim's shoe...Did I not bring this up...?
-Two types of blood were found on this shoe! One was of course the
victim's.
-And the other was...! The defendant, Ms. Lana Skye's blood!
-This shoe proves it! It's flawless, decisive evidence!
Angel will bring out the victim's shoe during the testimony. Problem is,
Edgeworth can't accept this as evidence due to the rules of evidence law.
The Police Department didn't approve of it so it can't be accepted. Angel
responds that the shoe was tested by a member of the forensics department.
That makes it approved by the Police Department. VICTIM'S SHOE will be
makes it quite important. The cloth must be vital evidence. The Judge will
suspend the trial for thirty minutes. Save the game now.
-----------------------------------------------Date-February 23, 11:56 AM
Location-District Court; Defendant's Lobby No. 2
-----------------------------------------------You'll talk with Ema, and Marshall will join you not long after. He was
kicked out of the Underground Lot due to investigation of the mysterious
cloth. Marshall will reply that he, for certain, saw Lana wearing her red
scarf. He saw if the day of the murder. He mentions Edgeworth has seen her
wearing it as well. But the photo proves she wasn't wearing it. This is all
a ball of confusion. She must have been wearing it, but proof shows she
wasn't...who the hell cares? SHE KILLED GOODMAN. A scarf shouldn't dispute
otherwise. Back to court!
---------------------------------------Date-February 23, 12:32 PM
Location-District Court; Courtroom No. 9
---------------------------------------You'll enter the courtroom to find Edgeworth's face look rather
displeasing. He's muttering about something that couldn't have possible
happened. Huh. Perhaps it has something to do with the man that has come
in. After a dramatic pause for effect, he will be mentioned as the district
chief of police Damon Gant. He will have brought Lana's red scarf. He says
that it really was stuffed into the muffler of the car.
Gant will then present a switchblade knife. Gant pushes off Edgeworth,
totally embarassing him. It's his fault the investigation so far has been
crap since he agreed to this case. The Judge will ask you to take a look at
the switchblade knife that Gant found. The knife will open up into the
investigation screen. You need to find a way to open it. However, the only
thing you can examine is the tag attached to it. Present the location of
that tag. This tage reads "SL-9 2". This sounds familar, kinda like DL-6.
Could SL-9 be the code name for yet another incident? Ema also says she
thinks she has seen this before.
You can open the knife now. Examine the little golden switch on the upper
half of the knife to draw the blade. Ema will notice the end of the blade
has been completely broken off. The stain on it is likely to be blood.
SWITCHBLADE KNIFE added to the Court Record.
Edgeworth is ticked off at the chief of police. He will be asked to testify
about the current situation. This is the final testimony of the day. Oh
what fun.
----------------------------------------------~Damon Gant's Testimony-Department in Disorder~
-----------------------------------------------This knife is special...but I can't say how here.
-Unless there's evidence to prove a connection between this knife and
Goodman...
-That was a bad day for the Department. We weren't in any shape to do an
investigation.
no body of Goodman there after all. Anyways, Phoenix thinks the blood
stains are all gone, but Ema thinks otherwise. She brings out her Luminol
Testing Fluid. It's stuff that allows you to see blood traces that have
otherwise vanished. Ema will hand you an extra pair of glasses that will
turn the screen a red hue. You will be able to see a reaction if you get
one. You must tap the area you want to spray on the touch screen.
There's only one place that has blood stains that we can remember-the
footprints that were near the car. Keep tapping the floor back from the
trunk until the footprints are visible, then tap the blue box that shows
they exist. Ema will ask you if something is odd about this. Choose "The
amount of blood". There should be a pool of blood here instead of just a
few footprints. Ema will mention that she has updated the Floor Plans to
show the location of the prints. LUMINOL TESTING FLUID will be added to
the Court Record as well.
You'll be using the Luminol Spray a lot. Angel will come back now. Talk to
her about "Today's trial". She admits she really did see everything from
the security room. She lied, though, because it didn't sound convincing.
That's not important since it doesn't change what she saw.
Now ask about "Detective Starr". She was a famous detective two years ago.
No matter what criminal faced her, she'd be able to cough up the facts out
of them. After doing that for so long, she eventually got the title CoughUp Queen. She finished by saying she was fired soon after the SL-9
Incident.
Present the Victim's Note to Angel. She will see "SL-9" writen on the note
as well as on the knife. Goodman was the head detective on that case. The
broken knife was the murder weapon. It was due for transferral when Goodman
was killed. She thinks the SL-9 Incident still isn't over yet.
She won't cough up the SL-9 facts just yet. Present Goodman's ID to her.
She'll mention she used to have one as well. Now present the Crime Photo.
Angel mentions she could have taken it from the security room, but she
panicked when she saw the murder. She mentions that one of her testimonies
got pushed aside once. You can now talk to her about the "SL9 Incident".
She learned from that incident that detectives were nothing to the Police
Department. It was the biggest case she'd ever handled at the time. The
police were deperate for evidence. In the end the criminal was caught and
executed. The main problem is no actual evidence was ever found. This was
where forged evidence began in the police department. The worst part was,
everybody who worked on the case was fired several months later or had
their position severely lowered. Jake Marshall was also demoted.
Now you can talk about "Detective Marshall". The detectives investigated
the scene as much as possible. Jake was more determined than anyone else.
After the case he was suddenly demoted. Neither him nor Angel have
forgotten the SL-9 Incident. There was something hidden in the case, which
is what the detectives are after now, and nobody can stop them from finding
the truth. She is selling lunches for the sole reason of meeting with the
people who can help her.
She thinks you can help in the investigation. She'll give you a lunchbox
to give to Marshall. STEAK LUNCH will be added to the Court Record. We
need to find Marshall now. Head to the Police Department.
----------------------------------Date-February 23
Location-Police Department Entrance
----------------------------------Ema finds a way to reach the evidence room. You can now move to the
Security Guard Office.
---------------------------------------------Date-February 23
Location-Evidence Room Entrance; Guard Station
---------------------------------------------With such an important room just ahead there should be something guarding
it. If you notice the decor it should be obvious to tell whose job it is
to guard the room. Examine the door leading to the evidence room. You need
someone's permission to go in there first. Examine the security monitors
to find they are recording. You might be able to find out if anybody has
gone in there later on. You can't do anything else here yet. Head back.
----------------------------------Date-February 23
Location-Police Department Entrance
----------------------------------Gumshoe returns here to greet you. He says that the department has caught
the criminal who killed "Goodman" in the evidence room. All they are
lacking is decisive evidence. He says if you want to see the guy, they have
him locked in the detention center. Head there. You can only get there if
you head to Wright & Co. Law Offices first.
----------------------------------------Date-February 23
Location-Detention Center; Visitor's Room
----------------------------------------Meekins? How the hell did he kill a detective? He will blast that damn
siren constantly so get used to it. Talk to him about "The day of the
crime". He's a patrolman with General Affairs. He had some business to do
that day so he had to go to the evidence room. The guard office was empty.
The security officer is none other than Marshall if you have yet to figure
that out. He then looked at a security monitor, and then he saw a
mysterious person in the evidence room. He blacked out shortly after that
and found himself in the detention center.
Ema will ask what happened to Meekins' hand. Looks similar to Lana's. Ask
about "Bandaged hand" now. Apparently Goodman pointed a knife at Meekins
and not the other way around. After that occured he became unconscious. He
was alone in the evidence room when he woke up (has he just contradicted
himself?). Goodman had disappeared. He saw his hand bleeding after that so
he had to patch it up himself.
Ask about "The victim" now. Meekins sees himself as a victim in this case
rather than the killer. He also says he does not know Detective Goodman,
elminating any possible motive. Meekins says he didn't injure Goodman at
all. This is so wierd.
Now present Goodman's ID. This will quickly boost Meekins' memory. He says
that key card was the cause of all this mess. Now you can talk to him about
"Crime details". He didn't know Goodman, hence why he looked suspicious in
the evidence room. He asked him to show his ID card, then Goodman suddenly
pulled out a knife. Him and Goodman had a bit of a struggle, then he
blacked out.
Now you should ask about "Reaosn for arrest". Ema will start to explain
the situation. Meekins didn't know Goodman. The "victim" didn't show his
ID card. Thusly, we don't have any idea if the victim here is actually the
real victim, or even if it's Goodman. Also, if the body disappeared after
the crime there is no proof anybody actually died there. Meekins says he is
in here because the police clearly found Goodman must have been in the
evidence room. He mentions the video tape is quite clear. The one in the
security camera. It should show his tussle with Goodman clear as daylight.
Head to the Criminal Affairs Department. Yes, you can head there now.
-------------------------------------------Date-February 23
Location-Police Department; Criminal Affairs
-------------------------------------------Your old friend, Chief Damon Gant, is in town right now. Talk to him about
"Edgeworth". He's in a bit of deep water concerning what happened in
court today. He also mentions the von Karma incident put the department in
turmoil. Now ask about "Evident incident". He mentions he wanted the head
detective to keep quiet about something. Ema suggests you inquiry him to
get some more facts.
Examine the head detective. He's sitting a desk in the back of the room
near the plush Blue Badger. The head detective mentions almost everything
that belonged at Goodman's desk is now gone, except for one last thing. It
is a lost item report, however it isn't finished. GOODMAN'S LOST ITEM
REPORT will be added to the Court Record. Check it out. He only got to the
ID section of it. He must have forgotten his number. Now you can talk to
Gant about "Permission granted". After another pause, Gant completely
allows you to investigate the evidence room at your will. You will get a
special ID card that will let you inside.
Head back to the evidence guard room.
------------------------------------------Date-February 23
Location-Evidence Room Entrance; Guard Room
------------------------------------------Start off by examining the door to the evidence room. Sadly, the door is
locked and the card reader is shut off so you can't enter. Marshall will
return now. He will gladly turn the card reader back on for you. Before
going in you need to learn a lot of valuable information from Marshall.
Start off by handing him the Steak Lunch you recieved a while ago. He is
willing to talk now. Ask about the "Guard office" now. Phoenix will ask why
he wasn't at his station when Meekins went into the security room. Ever
since Marshall got fired from his job two years ago and was demoted he has
seemed to care less. He mentions if anything was to happen the security
camera would catch it.
Ask about "Marshall". Marshall states that the SL-9 Case is all his, even
though it has already been solved. He can't seem to let it go. The case is
dead now thanks to the evidence transferrals.
Now ask about the "Security system". If nothing occurs on the tapes within
several hours worth of time, they are erased. The struggle between Goodman
and Meekins is still likely to be on the tapes. Also he will say you need
an ID Card to get into the Evidence Room. The card reader keeps a record of
every ID Card that goes through it that day.
You want that record. To get it, present Goodman's ID to confirm the
identity of one of the people on the list. The fourth number on the list is
Goodman's. He went into the room at 5:14 PM, the same time somebody else
did. Remember, Meekins said he was in the evidence room as well and he
asked Goodman to show his ID Card. But if he had it, why didn't he show it?
Marshall will give you the ID CARD RECORD, added to the Court Record. This
list will update itself once you confirm the identities of other people on
it. So far you know Bruce Goodman was here.
Now ask Marshall about "Transferal". Evidence from solved cases is kept in
the evidence room. They are kept for two years so they can be reinvestigated in the event a mistake was made. After that time the evidence
is taken to an underground vault forever and never seen again. This
transferal occurs every February.
You know all you need to. Head to the evidence room.
-----------------------------------Date-February 23
Location-Evidence Room; Sector Three
-----------------------------------Guess who you find in here again? Detective Gumshoe is here on some
business. He wants you to have the EVIDENCE ROOM FLOOR PLANS, added to the
Court Record. The room is quite small, there's a sharp corner leading into
a dead end nearby.
Talk to Gumshoe about "Judge for a day". Gumshoe has been appointed the
head detective of this case for the day. Sadly, everyone Gumshoe can boss
over is gathering information for the trial tomorrow. He mentions that he
has a locker in here. He is a detective, after all. He has one only he can
open. Talk about "Evidence safe" to learn more about this.
You see, every locker here is set so only one detective is able to open it.
These lockers aren't opened by keycards but rather by fingerprints. That
makes it so only each detective can open only their locker. Those who try
to open lockers that don't belong to them get shocked. EVIDENCE LOCKER will
be added to the Court Record.
Now ask Gumshoe about "Edgeworth". The commitee is trying to figure out who
is mostly responsible for the screw up in court today. He mentions that
Edgeworth can't stay away from the SL-9 Incident. It was the beginning of
the end for Edgeworth. To get him to talk about it, present the Victim's
Note-proof you are somehow involved with that case now. The Sl-9 Incident
was Edgeworth's first big case. Perhaps some loose ends of the case are
just now beginning to fill in...
Now talk about the "SL9 Incident". He says the case was very violent. It
was a serial killing. The killer made a mistake, though, and Edgeworth
built his case around that. This is what started all the rumors about him.
All of this was supposed to be cleaned up with the evidence transferal,
it was Detective Goodman's last ever job. He was in the SL-9 Incident after
all. This explains the switchblade knife only vaguely. It has some
connection to the current events.
If Gumshoe is in here, perhaps he's on the ID Card list. Present the ID
Card Record. He will get surprised to find out that he knows one of the
people on that list. The second person to enter this room was Edgeworth!
ID CARD RECROD will be updated now. He came in here at 4:40 PM that day.
But for what reason?
Use the Luminol Testing Fluid and choose to spray the room. Note the locker
directly ahead of you with something hanging out of it. Spray this to find
a handprint. The Floor Plans will be updated to show this. Now choose to
examine the room.
Examine the mysterious locker we just looked at. The cloth hanging from it
is probably some evidence to another case. That isn't Gumshoe's locker,
though. Switch to the other screen now.
There seems ot be a lot here. Examine the paint at the bottom right corner.
Gumshoe will comment he built the Blue Badger right here. The Badger has
a connection to this room, and in more ways than one. Now examine the glove
that is hanging onto the yellow police tape. This is evidence from SL-9
as well. RUBBER GLOVE will be added to the Court Record.
Now examine the open locker near where you found the glove. That locker
belongs to Detective Goodman. It's kept open since it can't be opened
again if they close it since Goodman is dead and all.
Look below the yellow tape to find some broken pieces with some numbers
near them. Once again, this is more evidence from SL-9. Choose to "Check it
out closer". Ema suggests you try putting it back together.
You will be given eight fragment pieces. They are numbered. You need to
rotate them correctly so they fit back together again. Start with Fragement
No. 5 and rotate it clockwise (using the right button) twice and combine
it. Next, head to Fragment No. 4 and rotate it clockwise three times and
combine it.
Head to Fragment No. 6 and rotate it four times clockwise and combine it.
Next, go to Fragment No. 1 and rotate it twice clockwise to be able to
combine it. Head to Fragment No. 8 and rotate it four times clockwise.
Now, go to Fragment No. 3 and rotate it four times clockwise so you can
combine it. Using Fragment No. 2, rotate the piece twice clockwise so you
can connect it. Fragment No. 7 is last. Make it go clockwise only once and
you can finish the puzzle.
Some pieces are still missing. UNSTABLE JAR is added to the Court Record.
Examine the jar now. You will find blood stains on it. Could it mean more
blood is visible in this room somewhere? Try where you found the jar.
Break out the Luminol Testing Fluid and spray the area where you found the
jar. You will find a large pool of blood sitting there. This will be marked
on the floor plans as well. It's unknown how long this blood has been
sitting here or when it was cleaned up.
Look at the lockers again. Examine the one with a bloody handprint on it.
Ema asks that you spray this as well, so do so. The problem is, the locker
it is on belongs to Gumshoe. Once again, the Floor Plans will be updated.
Gumshoe will now comment that Edgeworth's meeting will be ending soon.
Gumshoe will leave now. Phoenix suggests he should go see Edgeworth. Pay
another visit to his office.
-------------------------------------------Date-February 23
Location-Head Prosecutor's Office; Room 1202
-------------------------------------------You'll meet the bellboy from the Gatewater Hotel here. He's delivering
something to Edgeworth. Edgeworth will soon appear, and he doesn't seem to
be in the happiest of moods.
Talk to him about the "Inquiry committee". Apparently this is counted as a
communications error. He was given a warning for his actions.
Ask about "Tomorrow's trial". Although he is the prosecuting attorney,
control over the investigation is now in the hands of the Police
Department, mainly Chief Damon Gant. To get him talking some more, present
the ID Card Record. Why is he on this list?
Gant asked Edgeworth to head into the evidence room at 4:40 PM the day of
the murder. He wanted him to grab a piece of evidence for a case that was
closed over a year ago. He wanted Edgeworth to keep it in the Prosecutor's
Office. Edgeworth won't say what kind of case it was used in, but it is
irrelevant to the current case. SCREWDRIVER is added to the Court Record.
The screwdriver has a tag much like the switchblade kinfe. Examine this
tag. It reads "AI-16" perhaps the name of yet another case. Ema will
sarcastically mention this could be the evidence that wins the case.
Now present the Switchblade Knife to Edgeworth. It has a similar tag on it.
That, and this knife was used in the incident Edgeworth first prosecuted
in. He's willing to talk to you about what really happened back then. Talk
about "Allegations of forgery". Damon Gant was head of police at the time.
Edgeworth worked with him on the SL-9 Incident. Edgeworth used extreme
methods during the case. He had no choice, the suspect who even confessed
had to be proved guilty. Edgeworth didn't touch any of the evidence, but
that doesn't mean others didn't. Lana also wanted Ema to know something.
She wanted to know if Ema was still working on "scientific investigations".
Ema will show the Luminol fluids. Edgeworth is holding something that you
may want. It is a kit for taking fingerprints. FINGERPRINTING SET will be
added to the Court Record. He says it's unimportant to him what happens in
the investagtion now since it isn't in his hands.
You can now test fingerprints and compare them to everybody who is
currently involved in this case. Remember where we found some suspicious
prints? Head back to the evidence room now.
-----------------------------------Date-February 23
Location-Evidence Room; Sector Three
-----------------------------------As soon as you enter you will begin by testing out the bloody handprint on
Gumshoe's locker. Choose either the thumb or one of the clearly seen
fingers. You have to tap the screen to lay down the powder. Cover most of
the screen with the powder then blow into the microphone to reveal the
print.
Sadly, this isn't a finger. The murderer must have been wearing gloves.
Look at the handprint again. You should notice several prints that are
quite clear below the bloody hand. Choose one of the prints and you will
do the process once again. You will discover a very clear print here.
Edgeworth apparently also gave you fingerprint data for everyone in the
case so far. Examine the profiles close up to see a small sample of their
fingerprints. You will notice Gumshoe's looks similar to the center of the
print you just found. Choose to compare the two prints. You will get a
perfect match!
Phoenix remembers a second handprint in this room. Remember it? It's the
one on the locker where some cloth was hanging out of it. Spray the Luminol
Testing Fluid on the locker with the hanging cloth to discover a handprint.
Examine this locker. Choose to "Check for prints" here. Look at the middle
finger. There is an invisible print here slightly to the left of it.
Perform the fingerprinting test again. You will find a print clear as day
here once again. Time to make some comparisons. The center of this finger
matches only one person. Try matching against Jake Marshall. You will find
this is yet another perfect match.
MARSHALL'S FINGERPRINTS will be added to the Court Record. Marshall's
fingerprints are on a blood stain. Now we have some decisive evidence. It's
about time. Finally, we can head to court.
===========
Day 3-Trial
===========
---------------------------------------------Date-February 24, 9:41 AM
Location-District Court; Defendant Lobby No. 1
---------------------------------------------The police are still clueless about this case. Lana also mentions that if
she confesses to the meaning behind the simultaneous murders then she will
get a lesser punishment. Let's get into the courtroom.
---------------------------------------Date-February 24, 10:00 AM
Location-District Court; Courtroom No. 9
---------------------------------------Edgeworth seems confused at the beginning of the trial, but recomposes and
mentions he has evidence that will explain this case.
The first witness is the only suspect to the Police Department murder, Mike
Meekins. He actually confesses to killing Goodman right on the spot. A bit
of nervousness on the stand, perhaps.
--------------------------------------------~Mike Meekins's Testimony-Crime Report, Sir!~
---------------------------------------------Although it's not my norma duty, I was assigned to guard the evidence room
that day!
-I spotted a suspicious man on the security screen, and rushed into the
room!
-I was only doing what I was trained to do, sir! I was suddenly attacked!
-I fought for my life! Then I...I did it!
-After that I passed out...until another officer smacked me awake!
Ema mentions you need to press him on the details because you have VERY
little information to work with here. Press his first statement. Evidence
transferal was going on the day he was assigned to the guard station. Many
peoples' jobs were temporarily changed that day for special tasks. Meekins
was in charge of guarding the Blue Badger. His job was to ensure it wasn't
damaged during the transferal. He relocated it to the Evidence Room for the
day.
Now, press the second statement. Phoenix brings out the ID Card Report and
asks if his number is listed because it should be if he went into the
evidence room. Meekins number is the one listed twice. He entered at 4:50
PM and 5:14 PM, the same time Goodman entered. That makes sense. At 4:50
he moved the Blue Badger to the evidence room. 5:14 is when he entered to
check out the mysterious man. ID CARD RECORD will now be updated.
We're getting somewhere now. Press his third statement. Meekins states
again that Goodman pulled a knife on him and used it to attack him. Also,
when Meekins entered the room, Goodman looked surprised. During the
struggle Meekins sustained the hand injury.
Now press the fourth statement. Meekins says the man let down his guard for
a second and used the time to snatch the knife away from him. His coat was
then covered in blood. The man then punched Meekins right in the face.
Press the final statement. Edgeworth shows a report that states Meekins
woke up at about 5:30. He was unconcious for about 15 minutes then. Once he
woke up, he finished his job for the day by returning the Blue Badger to
the front entrance of the Police Station.
Well, that's all for Meekins' testimony. One question remains, though. Was
the man Meekins murder really the victim? With regard to that question,
Meekins will present a video tape. It shows the footage that the security
camera picked up. You will now be shown the tape.
What follows is one of the worst security tape records in the world. As
Edgeworth states, "What the hell was that wriggling piece of plywood!?"
There were so many things in the video that only one viewing isn't really
enough to make sense of it. "Goodman's" face was never seen and the main
struggle between him and Meekins was missed. SECURITY VIDEO is added to
the Court Record. And now Meekins will testify further on these matters.
-------------------------------------~Mike Meekins's Testimony-Mystery Man~
--------------------------------------His face can't be clearly seen in the video,
-but there's no question that the other person was Detective Goodman, sir!
The Judge
jammed into
Pause after
object and
So this object could have been jammed between the door to keep it open.
This object would have to be very thin to fit in the door, and have
insulation in order to block out the electrical currents in the door. You
will be asked to present an item that fits this description. You should
know rubber doesn't conduct electricity. And you have a rubber glove.
Present the Rubber Glove.
Phoenix will mention the tag attached to the glove, reading "SL-9". It was
Goodman's case. This implies it was in Goodman's locker. On the day of the
crime anybody was capable of opening the locker. Thisly, the person who
Meekins stabbed in the evidence room easily wasn't Detective Goodman.
Meekins will be asked to testify again to show he really is Goodman,
however.
-----------------------------------------~Mike Meekins's Testimony-Mystery Man (2)~
------------------------------------------There's one other thing that proves the man was Detective Goodman, sir!
-To enter the evidence room, one must use their ID card!
Knight, Edith Kerby, Rachael Moss, Jeb Bates, and Neil Marshall.
The important trial data was that the head prosecutor was Edgeworth. The
witnesses were Lana and Ema Skye.
The exectutive investigators were Damon Gant and Lana Skye. The head
investigator was Bruce Goodman. The main investigators were Angel Starr an
Jake Marshall.
There's a lot of things here that connect with this current case. You've
met all of the investigators save for Goodman. Also, Ema was a witness in
this case? Note the victims as well. Neil Marshall was one of them. Could
he somehow be related to Jake Marshall?
Lana also reveals this case was called the "Joe Darke Killings". Ema seems
frightened at this and quickly runs away. Gumshoe will take his leave
shortly afterwards.
---------------------------------------Date-February 24, 12:14 PM
Location-District Court; Courtroom No. 9
---------------------------------------Ema didn't come back in that short time. You're going into trial, once
again, without a partner. You can still do fine. Marshall will be called to
the stand.
-------------------------------------------~Jake Marshall's Testimony-Day of the Crime~
--------------------------------------------My job was to keep a wary eye on that bone orchard.
-They say I was supposed to make rounds three times a day, but that ain't
my style.
-Besides, the room's protected by two security systems, anyway.
-If I remember right, I was at a stree-side saloon at the time it went
down.
-I'm just an innocent travelin' man, so if you're out of ammo it's time I
hit the trail.
Before the examination, Phoenix will ask about the second security system.
He mentions it's the ID Card reader. He then asks about the fingerprint
activated lockers, but Marshall appears to have no idea what he is talking
about. Maybe because he's not a detective?
Let's squeeze the information out of this cowboy. Press the first statement
and Marshall will reply that he erases the tapes if nothing important
happens on them every six hours. In actuality, Marshall never actually sets
foot inside the evidence room.
Now press the second statement. After a bit of fancy talk, Marshall flat
out says he never set foot inside the evidence room on the day of the
murder. The Judge asks if he had any idea of the rubber glove inside
Goodman's locker, but Marshall doesn't seem to know that either. He hasn't
been in there for weeks.
Obviously, only Marshall could open this locker. He's even attested to
opening it in the past. So, how does he not know about the fingerprinting
required to open it. For the cloth to appear after the murder, Marshall
must have been in the evidence room. He opened his locker when the camera
wasn't looking.
Now you need to prove only Marshall could have opened his locker. Present
the Evidence Locker. Marshall appears to be breaking down. He also still
seems to not understand any of this. Then he'll panic. Phoenix says he can
figure out the rest of the puzzle from here, with or without Marshall's
cooperation. Phoenix will bring out the floor plans and show the location
of the killer and the victim. Thusly, where was Marshall standing this
entire time? There's only one possible place. Marshall must have been the
killer who entered the evidence room. Point to the blue V and present.
This is where Goodman was...if he was even Goodman. This means Marshall
dressed up like Goodman and entered the evidence room as if he was him.
Edgeworth will object, saying Meekins would easily recongnize that the face
didn't belong to Goodman. However, Meekins didn't know what Goodman looked
like. When asked to show his ID Card, the man pulled out a knife. It now
makes sense. Had Marshall shown Goodman's ID card, he would easily be seen
as not the real Goodman, and thusly blowing his cover.
Marshall is ready for your challenge. He asks you to prove he put on
Goodman's outfit and went into the evidence room. Sadly, you have no
evidence that can prove this. Edgeworth mentions you should return to the
basics since you're stuck. Funny, Mia said the same thing. Instead of
looking for proof he was in disguise, you should prove what happened
because he was in disguise.
Edgeworth asks why Marshall would open his locker at the time of the crime.
He must not have planned to open his locker, but needed to anyways. But
what exactly is this piece of cloth he stuck into his locker? Phoenix says
the video, sadly, is the key to this whole situation. You will play the
video for the umpteenth time.
So, what if the cloth wasn't actually small and was instead something,
larger? The only major white thing would be Goodman's trenchcoat. But why
would Marshall stuff the coat into his own locker? Well, look at the tape
during the struggle between Meekins and Marshall. See how blood gets
splattered all over the trenchcoat? Present that. It would warrant Marshall
slipping it into his locker.
Marshall is impressed. It seems you have figured it all out. Marshall will
now explain what truly happened and why he was there in the first place.
------------------------------------------------~Jake Marshall's Testimony-Marshall's Confession~
-------------------------------------------------I had to do it that day. I couldn't just stand by and let it die.
-I stole the detective's ID and dressed like him. I planned to take out the
evidence.
-I wasn't expecting Officer Meekins. I knocked him out...
beaten him in a fight. There's more to the record than what lies there.
Well, this entire mystery has been solved. No murder took place at the
Police Department. This means the issue at the parking lot is still real.
Lana is about to be declared guilty....
...but Ema returns from her little vacation with a clear objection. She has
a bit of an explaination. She understood the reasoning of Marshall so she
knew he had nothing to do with the murder. That leaves one other handprint
to look at. The one on Gumshoe's locker. Ema ran over there and
investigated the handprint again.
Ema, sadly, didn't find anything on these prints. She still thinks they are
the only clue you could possibly have. There must be something wrong with
them, then. The Judge will ask if there's something wrong with the
handprint, something you may have overlooked. Choose "I object!" Take a
look at the floor plans again. Something is missing from them. Do you
realize what? The meaning of the bloody handprint will change once this
evidence is in play. The Blue Badger was in the evidence room, right?
Present the Blue Badger Panel.
Now what happens when the Blue Badger is inserted on the floor plans?
Thusly, there's no way a handprint could have been placed on that locker.
Oh snap. Ema will tell you to think it through. The handprint would have to
have been put there before 4:50 PM, the time Meekins inserted the Blue
Badger into the evidence room. This means in the evidence room on the day
of the murder, blood was actually spilled twice. One of the times was
captured on the security camera. This is when Meekins cut himself. However,
someone else bled prior to this tape. The only person it could be was
Detective Goodman, the time he was REALLY murdered.
Edgeworth and Phoenix will constantly object against eachother. Edgeworth
will demand you show when the murder really took place. What shows the
times people went into the room? Present the ID Card Record. You will look
at the record once again. Only two people entered before Meekins. That was
Edgeworth ten minuted beforehand, and somebody with lucky "7777777" thirty
minutes prior to Meekins.
Edgeworth will wipe away any suspect of him doing it. How could Edgeworth
kill Goodman, clean up the blood, and walk away with the body undetected
in only ten minutes' worth of time? Thusly, the last person must have done
the deed. But Goodman's card wasn't here at the time. Thusly, Goodman must
have entered with this man.
Edgeworth goes on to explain he can't find out who it belongs to because
"7777777" is the number to someone with the rank of Captain or higher. He
has no authority to grab the identity of the person. There is one way,
however. An official charge is filled out and accepted.
Marshall will demand an answer from Lana. He wants to know more about the
SL-9 Incident. He demands to know if only legitimate evidence was used in
the trial. Occasionally they felt powerless with the law. Lana had to do
what she did just to get somebody who was clearly a murderer convicted.
Even if it involved forging evidence. The courtroom gets out of control
from Lana's statement. Court will end now.
===================
Day 3-Investigation
===================
--------------------------------Date-February 24, 3:12 PM
Location-Wright & Co. Law Offices
--------------------------------Ema didn't know the Joe Darke Killings were renamed. Lana wanted Darke
convicted real bad so she used Ema. She used what happened to Ema. Ema was
there when Neil was murdered by Darke. That night, Darke was actually
trying to kill Ema. Neil tried to save her. That's what made her a witness
in the trial.
Now you have some important things to talk about with Ema. Ask about the
"SL9 Incident". The case occured right around this time two years ago.
There was a terrible storm that day. Ema was alone in Lana's office. They
planned on going out once Lana finished her work. Suddenly, Darke burst
into the office and pulled a knife on Ema. Prosecutor Marshall showed up
soon after and tackled Darke to the ground. Ema will never forget those
moments. The lights went out, the lightning lit the room for a second, and
an image remains burned in her mind.
Skip to the "Permanent picture" to learn more. Darke had knocked down Neil
and raised his knife. Soon after, Ema passed out. When she woke up Lana was
holding and conforting her. She was unable to testify. She was too shocked
at the events to do so. She tried to draw a picture, but it was no good.
She wanted to become a scientific investigator to fix these problems.
Now ask about "After the incident". She doesn't remember the moment that
Darke stabbed Neil. She couldn't testify about that. This may have been why
Lana forged evidence to get the guilty verdict. Edgeworth used this
evidence, but at the same time he didn't know it was forged. That is when
the rumors about him started.
Now ask about "Something puzzling". How come a serial killer was able to
run into Lana's office? That, and why was a prosecutor chasing him? Darke
was taken into questioning for the day. He attempted to run away about
halfway through the interview and ran into Lana's office. You also find out
that Lana was a detective two years ago. She was transferred to the
Prosecutor's Office and made Chief Prosecutor after the case. Phoenix
mentions he should talk to her again. Let's do so.
----------------------------------------Date-February 24
Location-Detention Center; Visitor's Room
----------------------------------------Lana admits you now have a right to know the truth. Ask about "Today's
trial". Lots of connections to SL-9 were made within the court today, as
well as the truth behind the Prosecutor's Offices motives. Evidence was
stolen to boot. She knows how obsessive Marshall can be. Lana, though,
still won't explain what really happened at the underground parking lot.
She thinks it doesn't concern her.
Ask about "Detective Lana Skye". Ema goes to say she was one of the best
detectives, and how she solved many cases with Chief Gant who was Vice-Head
of Criminal Affairs back in the time. The pair solved many cases before
they could even be filed. Lana became a detective to gain experience in
investigating crime scenes so later the experience would pay off in court.
Gant's help in SL-9 was critical and he became Chief of Police after that.
He then arranged for Lana to become head prosecutor.
Now ask about the "Darke investigation". Gant and Lana were top
investigator's, and thusly shared the same office. She was confident that
Joe Darke was the serial killer. It was when he was called to questioning
that the final murder took place. Lana was the first person to find the
scene of the crime.
Now ask about "First one at scene". Gant and Neil were questioning Darke
that day. Darke must have panicked in the investigation and fled the room
when the two least expected it. He ran straight to Gant's and Lana's office
from there. Lana was doing some work during the questioning. When she got
back to her office, she saw three bodies. Darke, Marshall, and Ema. Lana
panicked and carried Ema out and helped her. Darke was under arrest after
that. Phoenix says it can't be a mere coincidence everyone involved in
SL-9 happens to be involved in the current trial. SL-9 may not be over yet.
Lana mentions the Chief's office, the site of the final murder. It is now
all Damon Gant's. Go to the Police Department.
-----------------------------------Date-February 24
Location-Police Department; Entrance
-----------------------------------You will find Marshall standing outside the entrance to the department.
He intends on turning himself in for his crimes. You can't go to the
evidence room today. He did this because he wanted the truth. Ask about
the "Darke trial". He says something was fishy about the trial from the
beginning. All of the detectives thought the same.
Some facts were just inconsistent with the recovered evidence. For example,
the murder weapon. The switchblade knife was Darke's. The blade of the
knife was not consistant with that of the wound in the victim. Then,
perhaps the knife wasn't the murder weapon. The possibility was erased in
what was thought as a forged report. That case left severe burns in
everyone involved.
Ask about "Prosecutor Marshall" next. He was one of the best prosecutors
around. SL-9 was their first case together. Neil was 27 at the time. He
got the King of Prosecutor's that day none less. The incident also took
place on the transferal day. He tried to steal the evidence so the case
wouldn't die, but that plan failed.
Now ask about "Scars". The detectives knew something was wrong with the
case. Everybody involved, save Goodman since he headed the case, was
either fired or demoted in the police force. Goodman also wasn't dealt with
since the commissioners would be suspicious so they kept the obvious away.
Now talk about "Gant & Skye". There wasn't anybody who hadn't heard of the
famous duo. It was the biggest step in their careers. Lana was never the
same since she changed.
That's all Marshall knows. Edgeworth isn't the enemy. He didn't know and
wasn't involved in the falsifying of evidence. He mentions Damon Gant was
actually behind it. Now he'll take his final leave. Head back to the
Criminal Affairs Department.
-------------------------------------------Date-February 24
Location-Police Department; Criminal Affairs
-------------------------------------------The chief here will mention everybody is at a meeting. He will grant
permission into Damon Gant's office. Head to the Chief's Office.
-----------------------------------------Date-February 24
Location-Police Department; Chief's Office
-----------------------------------------Wow. What a crazy looking office. Gant will now notice you. Phoenix will
notice him place a piece of paper inside his desk. He'll mention he's upset
at the relevations in court today, mostly Lana's and Marshall's actions.
You will notice a picture in Lana's side of the office. Neil is holding the
K trophy with Lana and Gant at his side. GANT TEAM PICTURE will be added
to the Court Record.
Gant insists that you leave because he is busy with things. Ema tries to
mention SL-9, but Gant says it has been closed for years and there's no
reason to reopen it. There's no reason to investigate it. He orders you to
leave after that.
-----------------------------------Date-February 24
Location-Police Department; Entrance
-----------------------------------Phoenix is now sure the case isn't over yet. Gant denied your request to
look at the crime scene. He must have a reason to not want you looking at
it. Perhaps you can get in through another way...
Head to the Criminal Affairs Department.
-------------------------------------------Date-February 24
Location-Police Department; Criminal Affairs
-------------------------------------------You'll quickly meet up with Detective Gumshoe. He mentions that Edgeworth
is under fire from the Police Department and the Prosecutor's Office. It
concerns the falsified evidence from two years ago. Talk about "Edgeworth's
crisis" further. The prosecutor is responsible for the evidence shown in
court. The rumors basically are true, even though it wasn't intentional.
Now talk about the "SL9 Incident". Gumshoe looked through the files earlier
in the meeting. The only evidence was during Darke's final attack. The
evidence involved the murder weapon. He can't remember, so help him do so
by presenting what we think the weapon is, the Switchblade Knife. This
weapon was stolen and placed in the muffler of Edgeworth's car. Gumshoe
remember's the evidence now. Talk about the "Murder weapon". The police
traced the knife back to the store where Darke bought it. His fingerprints
were there, too. We know it's broken, yes? Neil Marshall was carrying the
broken piece inside of his body! It broke off there when he stabbed him!
It made a perfect match when compared. NEIL'S AUTOPSY REPORT will be added
to the Court Record. SWITCHBLADE KNIFE added to the Court Record. The
descriptions of both items are critical. Be sure to look at them now. You
know how Neil died basically and the critical evidence that is the
switchblade knife.
Talk about "Darke's crimes". One day Darke hit somebody with his car. This
accident turned him into a murderer. He killed everybody who witnessed the
accident and anybody who witnesses him killing the witnesses. Afterwards,
he turned himself in (WTF). There wasn't any evidence but he turned himself
in.
Phoenix asks if Gant's office is a crime scene. Gumshoe responds anybody
can get inside his office with an ID card. Gumshoe would be charged with
a breach of trust if he let you in, though. Goodman's card won't work since
it was deactivated from his death. You need to show him something to change
his mind.
Present the Unstable Jar. Gumshoe thinks he has seen this before. He sees
himself in the Chief's office and he's yelling at Gumshoe. He can't help
you yet. Let's visit Edgeworth.
-------------------------------------------Date-February 24
Location-High Prosecutor's Office; Room 1202
-------------------------------------------Edgeworth appears to be busy, but he'll allow you to talk to him. Ask about
"Forged evidence". He says there's no excuse for what he's done. He used
false evidence two years ago to get a guilty verdict. Nothing can erase
this fact. The Police Department's error becomes Edgeworth's error which
makes him the center of blame.
Ask about "Tomorrow's trial". It's funny that you keep worrying about how
Edgeworth will perform in trial. He's starting to hate it. Also, since
tomorrow is the last day prosecutors can't be changed. He never thought the
SL-9 Incident would come back to haunt him. He says the list of evidence
was too short in that case. There was only one thing on his mind. He's use
the evidence as best as possible to get a guilty verdict.
Now talk about "The day of the crime". He hates ceremonies, but he had to
attend. It was mandatory for anybody receiving awards. He finished some
work in the morning and drove to the Police Department. He didn't plan on
returning, but Gant asked him to take a screwdriver back to the office.
Now, Ema mentioned earlier about the picture hanging in Gant's office.
Phoenix thinks something is odd about it, too. Present the Gant Team
Picture. Ema mentions that the trophy that Neil is holding is slightly
different than the one Edgeworth has. There's a story behind the change.
Contradiction is what the award is based on. Talk about the "Prosecutor
trophy" some more. The award originates from a Chinese legend.
Edgeworth will explain the tale to you. It perfectly explains the broken
shield and knife. So, why was Edgeworth given just the shield? KING OF
PROSECUTORS TROPHY will be updated in the Court Record.
Now present the Screwdriver. Gant apparently does a lot of things that make
no sense. It is better than doing things that make sense poorly. Hah. Now
examine the piece of paper on the floor. Sadly, Edgeworth plans on
resigning from his job. Perhaps it can be put to good use later. LETTER
OF RESIGNATION added to the Court Record. Head back to the parking lot.
----------------------------------------------------Date-February 24
Location-Prosecutor's Office; Underground Parking Lot
----------------------------------------------------Angel Starr will return to the lot now. Talk to her about the "Darke
investigation". The detectives trailed him for several months. She also
mentions how Marshall must be going through hell from his brother's death.
Jake was determined after his death. Lana and Gant were the unstoppable
duo that lead the investigation.
Ask about "After case closed". It was from the duo that the investigation
was able to continue. That's why the detectives were shocked at what
occured from it all. Darke got what he deserved, but the evidence used to
do so was easily manipulated. Some items were created, others were kept a
secret. The people who were laid off or demoted were done so without any
sort of explaination. Angel thinks that Lana was merely being used as a
pawn. But by who?
Ask about "Legendary duo". They were the best of the best. Gant was easily
able to find evidence. By that, rumors made it seem like he forged them.
Nobody ever declared him of doing so, however. All the detectives wanted to
be like Lana. Her lookout for the other detectives is what bonded her to
Jake. When Neil was killed she felt as if she had lost her own brother.
This is why Angel will never be able to forgive her. Why did she have to
turn so cold after the incident.
Now ask about "Being used". Lana was transferred thanks to Gant. Gant was
certain to be made chief after the case. Once he had one other place
secured he'd have unstoppable power. That place was the Prosecutor's Office
right here. He transferred Lana because that was his ultimate goal. Lana
must really be Gant's pawn. This explains Lana's attitude and why she won't
say anything. Gant must be controlling her. Could Gant really be the one
who set up this murder?
Head back to the Criminal Affairs Department to have another chat with
Gumshoe.
-------------------------------------------Date-February 24
Location-Police Department; Criminal Affairs
-------------------------------------------Gumshoe still refuses to help you. He isn't ready to put his job on the
line. Something you have might change his mind. Present the Letter of
Resignation. Gumshoe is shocked at what Edgeworth is willing to do now.
The detectives betrayed Edgeworth when he had so much faith in them.
Gumshoe will now loan you his ID card so you can get back into Gant's
office. GUMSHOE'S ID added to the Court Record. Get back in that office!
-----------------------------------------Date-February 24
Location-Police Department; Chief's Office
-----------------------------------------Gumshoe will accompany you to Gant's office. Talk to him about "The
Chief's office". You'll be shown Lana's desk where Ema was waiting two
years ago. This is just Gant's office so nobody uses that desk. He has been
preserving the crime scene, though.
Now ask about "Chief Gant". Gumshoe is curious if Damon Gant is actually a
suspect in this case.
Now it is time to give the offices a thorough examination. Start with the
obvious. Check Gant's desk for the piece of paper he hid earlier. It
happens to be a list of evidence used in a case. The list pertains to the
SL-9 Incident. Gumshoe also mentions the evidence list is half as long as
most cases get. Edgeworth said the same thing earlier! EVIDENCE LIST will
be added to the Court Record.
Examine the Evidence List further. Check the back. There's a sketch of
what appears to be somebody holding a stick and someone lying on the
ground. Also note the list is in half. Is there a second picture to match
this one?
Bring out the Luminol Testing Fluid. You want to find some blood traces
near Lana's desk. Ema thinks this pool of blood was from Neil Marshall when
he was murdered. A murder obviously did take place here. Good confirming
that, though.
Now head back to Gant's side of the room. Near his desk is a safe. A code
needs to be entered, more specifically a seven digit number. Choose to
"Input number". You will be asked to input the code yourself. Have an idea?
You have the answer. Any lucky numbers you want to try? Of course I am
referring to lucky "7777777". Try inputting that.
What do you know? It opened! Yes, the final ID number on the ID Card
Record sheet. It's the number of the mysterious officer who entered the
room that day. Then that must be Damon Gant's number. Examine the now open
safe.
Inside you will find the final piece of the Unstable Jar. You will also
find a piece of cloth. A handprint is faintly visible on it. So, why was
all of that stuff in his safe?
Gumshoe won't let you take the items without proof they are relevant to
this case. Present the Unstable Jar. Choose to "Assemble fragments". Flip
the piece clockwise twice so you can finish the true assembly of the
Unstable Jar. This means Gant knowingly hid a piece of evidence within his
safe. There are some reddish lines on the jar, too. It's probably blood.
Still, it doesn't explain why Gant his it from the police. UNSTABLE JAR
data will be updated.
As for the cloth, present the Fingerprinting Set to Gumshoe. All you have
to do is spray the powder on the cloth and find a readable match. Examine
the middle finger for a very clear result. Upon comparison, the cloth was
touched by...Ema?
You can't possibly tell Ema her prints are on this. Thusly, you won't tell
her that for the time being. STRIP OF CLOTH added to the Court Record.
Oh snap! Gant decides it's time to return to his office. Gant pretty much
fired Gumshoe on the spot for sneaking into the office. After putting on a
creepy grin, he kicks you out.
-----------------------------------Date-February 24
chest...!
At the end, Phoenix realizes Ema has no reason to lie. The only way to
progress is from new facts. Press the first statement. She mentions Lana's
and Gant's office at the time and briefly talk about the organ.
Press the second statement. That man, of course, was Joe Darke. The serial
killer. Edgeworth states they were desperate to convict him. Darke fled the
room at first chance.
Press the third statement. Marshall was there because he was with Gant and
Darke during the questioning. He was able to get there fast since he was
nearby Darke.
Now press the fourth statement. Now something important happens. Marshall
jumped on Darke when the lights went out. Lightning flashed again outside
which illuminated the room breifly. She told the detective about what she
saw. That person being Goodman. Choose to "Hear more". She spoke about this
with him two years ago. She was so scared about the current events she
couldn't find the words to describe it. Thusly, she drew a picture. The
Judge will ask if you have heard enough.
Choose "Ask about the picture". Edgeworth objects and mentions the evidence
list didn't contain a picture. The Judge asks if this information would
be placed in her testimony. This line of testimony changes to this:
-I drew a picture of that scene once...but it seems to have been lost.
Er, if you followed this guide you should have checked the back of the
Evidence List. There was a picture of what looked like someone stabbing
another person. Yeah. That picture. Present the Evidence List here.
Edgeworth is confused when you yell that he's denying its existance. Too
bad that doesn't mean it never existed. Ema quickly realizes it as the
picture she drew. Edgeworth objects and says only the prosecutor in charge,
namely him, should have that list.
Edgeworth has a list of his own. The Judge realizes both are...different?
Edgeworth's list was actually incomplete. The two lists, together, form one
large list of evidence. They were actually torn apart. Funny, only half of
the evidence reached Edgeworth in the case.
Phoenix proposes they may be more to the drawing since the list was torn in
half. Edgeworth flips over the paper and finds a picture of...oh no. The
head of the freaking Blue Badger. What the hell. Edgeworth's reaction is
priceless. EVIDENCE LIST will now be updated. Ema thinks hard to herself
when she sees to complete picture. She'll now explain it.
-----------------------------------~Ema Skye's Testimony-Ema's Picture~
------------------------------------This is the picture I drew two years ago.
-The flash of lightning was so bright all I could see were the shadows.
-After that I must have fainted.
A recess will now be called. Oh how the tides of court have changed. But is
it for the better?
-----------------------------------------------Date-February 25, 12:06 PM
Location-District Court; Defendant's Lobby No. 2
-----------------------------------------------Gumshoe will burst in on your conversation with Edgeworth. Lana asked him
another favor. She wanted to give you a book on Evidence Law. She also
wanted him to give you the message of "If you plan on taking HIM on you're
going to need this book". EVIDENCE LAW added to the Court Record. Edgeworth
also comments the real battle hasn't even begun yet. It's time to bring
down Damon Gant once and for all.
---------------------------------------Date-February 25, 12:52 PM
Location-District Court; Courtroom No. 9
---------------------------------------Edgeworth would normally call a witness, but from the actions Edgeworth has
done lately, he will allow the defense to call the next witness. Time to
bring out the real murderer. Call Damon Gant to the stand. Phoenix demands
to know Gant's role in the SL-9 Incident. Let's not screw up.
-------------------------------------~Damon Gant's Testimony-SL-9 Incident~
--------------------------------------As I recall, Neil and I were questioning him that day.
-To make a long story short, we slipped up. That power outage didn't help
either.
-When I went to my office, I found Lana there.
-Apparently, she had already..."arranged" the crime scene.
-As you can see, I had nothing to do with the "forgery".
You need to link Gant to the incident somehow. He says he has nothing to
do with this incident, but then why were some things kept in his safe?
You can either present the Unstable Jar or the Strip of Cloth. However,
Gant hits you with the second rule of evidence law if you present the
latter so go with the jar.
Phoenix explains where he found the jar. He also goes on to say where he
found the evidence list. This proves he wa spart of the illegal
investigation. Gant will testify on why these were in his office.
------------------------------------------~Damon Gant's Testimony-Evidence & Forgery~
-------------------------------------------For all I know, you could have planted them in my office.
-Anyway, you can't prove "when" those pieces of evidence were discovered.
-If they were found after Darke was convicted, then they're worthless.
floor a little distance away. She'll add this next line to her testimony:
-I broke off the tip of Darke's knife, planted it inside the wound, then
moved the body.
Press this new statement. Phoenix is surprised she would go to such
extremes and do that. You will then be given the choice to ask her a
question. Choose "Why did you move the body" as unlikely and pointless as
that seems. Neil's body was indeed near Damon Gant's desk. Another new
line of testimony will be added:
-The pieces of the jar that shattered during the events threatened my plan.
Press this new statement. Yes, the unstable jar is the one she's referring
to. When she first found the body the jar was broken. It must have broken
during Darke's and Neil's struggle. Ema thinks there's something wrong with
that statement. Indeed, there is. Ema's name is on the jar. If it was
broken, how would Neil be able to write down his final message? Present the
Unstable Jar once more.
Edgeworth states more information about this jar and the bloody message may
be needed. Something critical could be here. Lana will be asked to just
explai what she saw. Edgeworth and Phoenix will fill in the missing
details.
---------------------------------------------~Lana Skye's Testimony-Jar & Message in Blood~
----------------------------------------------I immediately noticed the blood traces on the jar,
-but it was dark in the room and I didn't have time to check it out.
-To be safe, I wiped away the blood.
-The fragments were large, so I'm sure I got them all.
-All I could think about was wiping them clean before they were discovered.
Don't bother pressing. She will keep mentioned she did it, she moved the
body, and whatnot. There's still one problem. Yes, you will need the jar
again. That's original. Lana mentions she gathered every last piece to the
jar. However, we found out that one piece was missing and it was found in
Damon Gant's safe. Present the Unstable Jar at Lana's fourth statement.
Worse of all, there was blood on the final piece you found. Only one thing
remains. Someone else must have arrived first.
Only Chief Gant could have gotten there before Lana. The pieces were so big
it's unlikely an ace detective would miss one. The jar was broken when
found. Possible, the name wasn't written until after it broke. Edgeworth
thinks Damon got there first, broke the jar, and hid one of the pieces.
This action is fabrication of evidence. These whole events is what began
to make Lana Skye Gant's puppet. Gant did this just for control.
But wait. What if this is all Gant's trap still? Thusly, Ema's killing of
Neil Marshall might also be a complete lie. This is Lana's final
testimony. Let's get going.
some things in court you needed the half Edgeworth had. Edgeworth takes his
farewell after that.
The credits will roll now. You can use the fingerprinting scheme to reveal
pictures of the bounty of characters. Don't forget to read what they say as
well!

~10. Frequently Asked Questions~
==========================================
I've been browsing the boards for a while. I see these types of questions
oh so many times.
Q:What is Damon Gant's trap in case 5?
A:He first asks you to present a piece of evidence you have been conealing.
If you present the strip of cloth then you get an instant guility verdict.
Q:Does Edgeworth really quit?
A:(SPOILERS!)
Yes and no. He returns to prosecute in the final case of Justice for All.
It is unknown if he makes any other appearences after that.
Q:Why does Redd White give in so easily in case 2?
A:Hell if I know. Getting beat down when you've been blackmailing people
for so long kinda puts a lot of pressure on you.
Q:What if you present the wrong things to Maya/Edgeworth after case 4/5?
A:They just look disappointed at you and take their leave as usual.
Q:Why is almost every name a pun?
A:Japan is wierd that way. Very, very wierd.
