General Information --------------------------------------------------------- -- This is a walkthrough for the Nintendo Dual Screen (NDS) game called Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth. It's a spinoff of the Phoenix Wright series, starring the ever-popular cravat-wearing prosecutor Miles Edgeworth. You can contact me at [email protected], if you want to put my guide on your website or something like that. This guide is separated by save points. Every time you get a chance to save your game, I start a new section of the guide. I made up my own names for the sections, because the game itself gives unhelpful names like "Middle � Part Two" to the various sections. 2. Video Walkthrough --------------------------------------------------------- -- For those of you who are interested, I have made a video walkthrough for this game. You can find them at the following links. Case One: http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=62B9A937B01AE863 Case Two: http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=7E02337532DA9828 Case Three: http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=0D3E7767D951FD4F Case Four: http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=F2DA664886F286EA Case Five: http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=E695C40AB91C7DD3 3. Case One: Turnabout Visitor --------------------------------------------------------- -- Case One begins with a murder in Miles Edgeworth's office, early in the morning. Edgeworth enters his office about fifty minutes later, having just returned from a month-long trip overseas. He is surprised to find the door unlocked, and even more surprised to find a dead body in his room. It seems the killer is still in the room, as a shadowy figure pulls a gun on Edgeworth and leaves without saying much, or doing much besides shooting the picture frame on the wall. 3a. Edgeworth's Office --------------------------------------------------------- -- The case begins with the police examining the scene of the crime. Edgeworth's friend Detective Gumshoe bursts into the room, ready to investigate. Investigation takes two forms in this game. The first is very simple: you look around and examine things in order to find evidence. This evidence is added to the Court Record...I mean, Edgeworth's organizer. You can look at this evidence whenever you want by pressing the R button (or tapping "organizer" on the bottom screen). Examining evidence sometimes leads to finding out new information. Profiles of all the characters are kept in the organizer, too! The second form of investigation Edgeworth uses is Logic. You can examine Logic by pressing the L button (or tapping "Logic" on the bottom screen), and you can then connect different ideas through logic. For example, in the conversation Edgeworth has with Gumshoe, two thoughts are added to the Logic function. Crime Scene: Why did the murder occur in Edgeworth's office? Office Key: The only way to get into the locked office is by using the proper key. Hit the Logic button and connect these two thoughts by selecting both thoughts, then hitting "connect" (or by pressing A twice, then Y). Edgeworth comes to the conclusion that the murder happened in the office for a reason; after all, it's rather difficult to get inside a locked room, so the killer and victim must have gone out of their way to enter Edgeworth's office. Edgeworth then asks the next logical question: why did the killer enter his room? This is added to Logic. Okay, that's enough Logic for now. Time to begin investigation! As Detective Gumshoe says, you can move around with the control pad and look at things with A (or you can use the bottom screen on the DS). At any time, you can tap the picture of Detective Gumshoe on the bottom screen to start a conversation with him. You can examine various items in this room and talk to the police officers if you want. There are some fun things to look at, like the Steel Samurai figurine, King of Prosecutors trophy and flowers from Wendy Oldbag. However, in order to advance the plot of the game, you need to look at the gun towards the bottom of the screen. Gumshoe recognizes it as the kind of gun that detectives use in this area. Edgeworth adds this to his Logic! Examine the victim's body in the lower/right part of the screen. This leads to a close-up view of the crime scene. Tap the DS touch screen (or just use the control pad) to move the cursor over something, then press A to examine it. There are three things to examine. You can examine the body to see the victim was shot in the abdomen. This information, along with the crime scene photo, is added to Edgeworth's organizer. You can examine the files which are lying around. Apparently, the victim and the killer had some sort of a struggle. This information is added to Edgeworth's Logic. Finally, you can examine the victim's wallet to learn that he is Buddy Faith, a detective. This is added to Edgeworth's Logic. Edgeworth figures he has plenty of information now, so it's LOGIC TIME!!! Modus tollens, it's your time to shine! Hit the Logic button and review the thoughts Edgeworth has. The Killer's Goal: What is it? Disordered Files: There was a struggle in this room. The Murder Weapon: A gun used by detectives. The Victim: He was a detective. Connect the gun with the murder weapon. If the victim was a detective, and the murder weapon is a gun that only detectives have...then it's logical to assume that the murder weapon belonged to the victim. Gumshoe checks the body. The victim is wearing an empty gun holster. Looks like the gun was stolen from the victim, presumably during the struggle between the victim and killer. The gun is then added to Edgeworth's organizer. He decides to take a closer look at it through the power of scientific investigation! Using the scroll wheels and the zoom in/out buttons, you can look at the weapon from all angles. Pretty handy! Check the bullet holder thingy. Five out of six bullets are still in the gun, so that means there was only one shot fired. Edgeworth, of course, adds this information to his organizer. --- So, to summarize this bit of investigation... Examine the gun. Look at the victim's body for a close-up. Examine the body. Examine the files. Examine the wallet. Logically connect the gun with the victim. Examine the bullet chamber of the gun. --- A new character arrives on the scene. Well, technically, he's not new. You saw him kill the victim in the opening cutscene. He introduces himself as Jacques Portsman. He claims to be highly upset by the death of his friend Jim, and in a fit of anger, he accuses Edgeworth, then Gumshoe of being the true murderer. Edgeworth requests that everyone calm down. The investigation is still ongoing, so it is premature to jump to conclusions. Portsman agrees, compliments Edgeworth, and says it's a pleasure to work with him. Portsman wants to say good-bye to his friend, so he busies himself around the body. One of the officers moves to take pictures, which is your cue to go to the upper/left part of the screen and examine the picture frame. The picture frame was shot! We already knew that, though. Edgeworth notices a contradiction (which is a term that reminds our hero of a certain spiky-haired defense attorney). You are then challenged to find the contradiction yourself. Move the cursor over the bullet hole. Hit the "deduce" button, then pick which piece of evidence has the contradiction. You only have three pieces of evidence, one of which is your attorney's badge, so it's not too hard to figure out that you need to pick the gun. Only one shot was fired, right? Then why is it that there are two bullet holes-- one in the victim and one in the picture frame? Edgeworth concludes that there could have been another gun at the scene of the crime, something which he adds to his Logical thoughts. Gumshoe then notices the safe which was hidden behind the picture frame. All prosecutors' rooms are equipped with hidden, secret safes, but no one besides a prosecutor is supposed to know about this (otherwise, it wouldn't be much of a secret). You then get to examine the safe. Look at the keypad to note that, unlike the rest of the safe, it is not dusty. The Forensics officer examines it and concludes the keypad was wiped clean of fingerprints recently. This is such important information that Edgeworth adds it to his organizer AND his Logic thoughts. Logic time again! Edgeworth has four thoughts. The Killer's Goal: What is it? The Hidden Safe: Someone tried to open it recently. Disordered Files: There was a struggle in this room. A Second Gun: Does this exist? Connect the killer's goal with the hidden safe to come to the conclusion that, perhaps, the killer wanted to steal something. Good, but we can make further deductions. Motive: The killer wanted to steal something. Disordered Files: There was a struggle in this room. A Second Gun: Does this exist? Connect the motive with the disordered files. Perhaps the files are disordered because the killer was searching for something to steal! Eager to test this theory out, Gumshoe offers to put the files back in order in case some are missing. The files get put back in place, but something feels wrong... Deduction time. Move the cursor over the bullet hole, then present the crime scene notes as contrary to it. As you can see, the bullet hole is far too close to the ground. Someone made a mistake somewhere. The mistake was with the order of the files. Edgeworth doesn't keep them in numerical order, but if they are organized in numerical order...ah! That's better. This means, oddly enough, that someone put the files in numerical order before the crime. So someone went through all the files both before and after the crime. This is added to Logic. Investigation time is almost finished, folks! There's just one more thing to look at: the files in the lower/right part of the screen. They're covered in blood. A closer look reveals that one of the files is missing. Edgeworth jots this down in his organizer. More importantly, however, the word "Gumshoe" is written on the files in blood, which makes the good detective look very suspicious. Investigation complete! --- So, to summarize this bit of investigation... Examine the picture frame. Deduce (ie. select) the bullet hole. Present the gun as contradictory to the bullet hole. Examine the keypad. Using logic, connect the safe with the unknown motive. Using logic, connect the motive with the disordered files. Deduce, using the bullet hole. Present the crime scene notes as contrary to the bullet hole. Choose "the order of the files". Examine the files in the lower/right. --- Portsman then accuses Gumshoe of being the murderer. Edgeworth requests that Portsman clearly explain his argument, which means...it's time for Cross-Examination! You can choose to have Edgeworth explain cross- examination or not. It's no different than cross- examination in the Phoenix Wright games. What happens is that the witness gives a testimony. If a statement contradicts something in Edgeworth's organizer, he can present it to point out the contradiction. There are five things currently in Edgeworth's organizer: his prosecutor's badge, the crime scene notes, the victim's revolver, details about the safe, and the stolen file. You can also press any statement to get more information (and sometimes, new testimony). Cross-Examination: Why Gumshoe Is The Killer -------------------------------------------- Jacques argues that Detective Gumshoe stole the victim's gun and shot him. Gumshoe tried to throw everyone off track by messing up the files. That's when he moved the body, and overlooked the fact that his name was written in blood on the files. You want to present the stolen file as evidence at the statement about the victim's body hiding the files. As you can tell from looking at the shelf of files, the missing file was stolen AFTER someone wrote Gumshoe's name on the files in blood. Therefore, the victim's body did not really hide the files, as the murderer got a look at the files after the murder. Portsman is impressed by Edgeworth's logic, and he agrees that Gumshoe is most likely not the killer. That's good news, but Portsman brings in another possible suspect...the only other person who had a key to Edgeworth's office...the security guard on watch tonight, Maggey Byrde! Oh no! Not Maggey! For those of you who don't know, Maggey was falsely accused of murder in Phoenix Wright: Justice for All AND Phoenix Wright: Trials and Tribulations. It looks like her bad luck has followed her through to this game as well. Gumshoe is very upset about this because he kind of has a crush on Maggey, and he insists that HE is the murderer, in an attempt to clear her name. No one is fooled by this, however, and Portsman decides to explain why he suspects Maggey. Cross-Examination: Why Maggey Is the Killer ------------------------------------------- Portsman claims that Maggey snuck into the room by using the master key to all the rooms. If Detective Gumshoe didn't open the door to the room, then she must have. On top of which, she knows Gumshoe. The killer knew Gumshoe, which is how he or she knew to frame him by writing a dying message on the files in blood. The Master Key is added to the evidence. Edgeworth suggests pressing some testimony, in case you haven't tried that already. Press the first statement about Maggey using the master key. Maggey says she couldn't have used the master key, but Portsman cuts her off, saying she's making things up. Edgeworth is given the option of hearing Maggey out, or agreeing with Portsman. Hear what she has to say. She says that the master key went missing around 1 AM. Did somebody steal the key and then return it later? Or, as Portsman claims, did she just lose the key? Guess what? We have...a new piece of testimony! Now, Portsman is saying that Maggey's motive was robbery. Present the safe at this statement. True, the killer did attempt to steal something from the safe. But Portsman has forgotten that it is a secret safe! Only prosecutors know about them! Why, even Edgeworth's partner Detective Gumshoe didn't know about it! The conclusion? The murderer is a prosecutor. --- So, to summarize this cross-examination... Press the statement about Maggey using the master key. Ask Maggey to say more. Present the safe at the statement about thievery. --- Prosecutor Portsman is looking very nervous now. He then claims that he told the victim about the secret safes recently. So, clearly, the victim tried to steal things from Edgeworth's room, and Maggey, being a good security guard, decided to stop him at all costs. Portsman further develops this line of thought. The victim was robbing the room, when Maggey came in. The victim pulled his gun on her, and she was forced to kill him in self-defense. Portsman then claims that the victim stole the master key to the room. The reason Maggey now has the key is because she took it from his dead body. Portsman then kicks everyone out of the room, claiming that he is now the prosecutor assigned to the case, and that they are all suspects. The part now ends, and you are given the option to save your game. Oh, you can save your game at any time, did I mention that? Just hit "start" to bring up the "save game" screen. 3b. Prosecutor's Building - Hallway --------------------------------------------------------- -- Things certainly look bad for Maggey, now that our heroes have been kicked out of the crime scene, but Edgeworth is not worried. He wanted to inspect the hallway, anyway. It's the best place to solve the mystery of the missing key. You can explore the hallway and do unnecessary things, like examine the basketball, basketball hoop and talk to Prosecutor Payne. Examine the sofa in the lower/left area. The missing file binder is here, under the sofa! Some pages are missing, however. They all deal with a 10-year-old case, which the person who had the office before Edgeworth served in. This information is added to Edgeworth's organizer. Talk to Maggey. Edgeworth suggests presenting the key to her with the present button. Try it out now. Hit the Y button (or press "present"), and the organizer pops up. Pick a piece of evidence from the organizer, and press Y again to present it. You can do this with any piece of evidence when talking to people. Presenting the Master Key to Maggey causes her to tell you that it was stolen from 1:00 to 2:30. This information is added to Logic. She is sure that is when the key was stolen, because she used the key that night. This opens up a new conversation topic called "Used the Master Key?" She used it to open up a door for a prosecutor who forgot his key...Prosecutor Portsman! Ah! Ask about forgetful Mr. Portsman. At 12:00, Maggey opened the door to his office for him. At 1:30, she locked the door for him. This information is added to Logic. Wait a minute...something about those times doesn't seem right. If the key was stolen from 1:00 to 2:30, how could it have been used at 12:00 and 1:30? Connect "Master key was stolen" to "Master key was used" in Logic. Edgeworth confronts Maggey with this contradiction. She admits that she just pretended to lock Mr. Portsman's door. This information is added to the organizer. It sounds like it's time to examine Portsman's door. When you examine the nameplate, you learn that he actually wanted Edgeworth's room, Room 1202. When you examine the basketball hoop, you learn that people generally recognize which door is Portsman's because of the basketball hoop. When you examine the door lock, you'll notice that it's locked. But...Maggey just said she didn't lock the door. That's a contradiction! Deduce on the door lock and present the office door. Edgeworth concludes that either the door was locked after Maggey pretended to lock it, or that she pretended to lock a different door. A simple fingerprint test should determine what happened. Only the victim and prosecutor Portsman's fingerprints are on the door. Someone else's fingerprints should be on the door. Whose? Pretty simple; select Maggey. If she opened the door, her fingerprints should be on it. Once the door is fingerprinted, it is revealed that Maggey's prints are not on the doorknob. Therefore, she never touched it. Therefore, she opened a different door. Edgeworth then notices a note tucked under the door. Examine it to find that it is a letter from the victim to Prosecutor Portsman. Looks like the victim stopped by his room sometime, but he wasn't there. Interesting...it's almost as if Portsman never entered his room tonight! Examine the basketball hoop. Notice how it's NOT in position? That makes it seem like it was moved tonight. Edgeworth notes this in his organizer. Now, go to Edgeworth's door and examine it to get a close-up. Look at the doorknob to learn that it was wiped clean of fingerprints. INVESTIGATION COMPLETE. --- So, to summarize this bit of investigation... Examine the binder hidden under the sofa in the lower/left. Present the Master Key to Maggey. Talk with Maggey about Using the Master Key and Forgetful Mr. Portsman. Logically connect both times that involve the Master Key. Look at Mr. Portsman's door. Look at the door lock. Deduce the lock. Present the office door as contrary to the lock. Choose "prints on the doorknob". Present Maggey's profile. Look at the note under Portsman's door. Look at the base of the basketball hoop. Go to Edgeworth's door and look at the doorknob. ---- Edgeworth believes that Portsman is the murderer. He, Gumshoe and Maggey all return to Edgeworth's Office for the dramatic confrontation between Edgeworth and Portsman. Edgeworth comes in and formally accuses Portsman. Portsman makes some snide comments about Edgeworth's mentor, Manfred von Karma, who was accused of falsifying evidence at various times in his career. Edgeworth isn't disturbed by this underhanded mud-slinging, and cross- examination begins. Cross-Examination: Mr. Portsman's Rebuttal ------------------------------------------ Portsman claims there is a mountain of evidence that points away from him. Besides, how could he have gotten into Edgeworth's locked office? Present the Master Key at the statement about the locked office. Portsman told someone to open the door with the master key, and that someone is Maggey Byrde. She opened Edgeworth's office, not Mr. Portsman's! Maggey confirms this story. She checked the nameplate on the door before opening it. Edgeworth suggests that Portsman switched nameplates, and furthermore, he tricked her into thinking she was at the right door with something else. That something else is the basketball hoop. The hoop always sits outside Portsman's door, right? So Portsman moved it next to Edgeworth's door to trick Maggey into opening the door to Edgeworth's room. After all, there ARE signs the hoop was moved recently. Portsman then gives more testimony. --- So, to summarize this bit of cross-examination... Present the Master Key at the statement about the locked office. Select Maggey Byrde Select the basketball hoop Cross-Examination: Conjecture's Rebuttal ---------------------------------------- Portsman claims that Maggey opened the door to his room, and he was in his room the whole time. Present the note left by the victim at the statement about being in his room the whole time. Clearly, he was NOT in his room at one point, because the note was delivered when he was NOT in his room. Of course, this is because he was in Edgeworth's Office, not his own. Portsman demands proof. Edgeworth obliges, as he has decisive evidence. Select the office door. Maggey's prints aren't on it; therefore she didn't open that door. Most likely, she opened Edgeworth's (the door with fingerprints that were wiped clean). Perhaps, when the victim dropped the note off at Portsman's office, he heard Portsman in Edgeworth's office, went in to investigate, and that's when he was killed by Portsman. Edgeworth also mentions his confrontation with the killer, that is, the time where the killer held him at gunpoint and shot the picture on the wall. Edgeworth has a pretty compelling series of events, but Portsman lies and says he wiped down his doorknob because he's obsessive-compulsive. He then claims that he simply overlooked the note. Further, because Edgeworth mentioned the confrontation with the killer, Portsman was able to remember he has an alibi. --- To summarize this cross-examination... Present the note at the statement about being in the room. Select Mr. Portsman's door. Cross-Examination: Portsman's Alibi ----------------------------------- Edgeworth was held at gunpoint at 2:00 AM. Well, Portsman was in criminal affairs at the time. It's a rock-solid alibi! Gumshoe double-checks with criminal affairs. Portsman is right! Oh no! Edgeworth, however, believes there MUST be a contradiction somewhere in the testimony. Press every statement. Darn! His alibi IS rock-solid! Portsman then orders that Maggey be arrested, and Edgeworth adds the information about the alibi to Logic. In Logic, connect the statement about the second handgun to Portsman's alibi. What if there's a second gun because there was a second person in the room that night? We know that there must be a second person, the person that held Edgeworth at gunpoint, because Portsman has an alibi for that time. Connect the idea of a second person in the room with the disarrayed files. Remember, the files were set in disarray twice: once before the murder and once after. If there was a second person in the room, this makes more sense; the murderer messed up the files once, and the second person in the room messed up the files once. With all this new information, Edgeworth feels prepared to continue cross-examination. After all, Edgeworth thought the person who held him at gunpoint was the killer. Now, it seems that this is NOT the case; the person who held him at gunpoint is, in fact, someone else. A thief, perhaps? Someone DID steal one of the files from the room after the murder, after all. In any case, the presence of a second person explains why there are two handguns that were fired once in the room, and the fact that the files were disturbed twice. Edgeworth explains the series of events in great detail. Portsman is amused at this series of events. If it's true, his alibi is worthless, as it only shows he is not the second person in the room. Does he have an alibi which shows he is not the FIRST person in the room (i.e. the killer)? Portsman may not have an alibi, but Edgeworth has no solid proof that he WAS the first person in the room. Portsman then gives testimony to the effect that the SECOND person in the room was the killer, not the first person in the room. --- So, to summarize this cross-examination... Press every statement. Logically connect the second handgun to the alibi. Logically connect the second person to the files. Cross-Examination: Portsman's Alibi, Part 2 ------------------------------------------- Portsman claims the thief should be the main suspect, as he was training in his room the whole time. He left to go the Criminal Affairs, and that's when the victim left a note under his door. Press the statement about Jim visiting Mr. Portsman. Portsman clarifies a bit and says that he knew Jim wanted to deliver two pieces of evidence. Edgeworth adds this statement to the testimony. If you read the note from the victim, it clearly says there are THREE pieces of testimony. Present the note from the victim at the statement about two pieces of evidence to make an objection. Foiled by arithmetic, Portsman! Where's the THIRD piece of evidence? Gumshoe searches Portsman and finds a videotape. Portsman gets really, really upset about this, and Edgeworth concludes it must be because the tape indicates him as the murderer. Edgeworth does scientific investigation on the videotape, a tape from the KG-8 incident. Flip the tape over to find blood. Fresh blood! The victim's blood, perhaps? Edgeworth plans to have the tape fingerprinted immediately. If the only fingerprints on it belong to the victim and Portsman, that should pretty much prove that Portsman stole it from the victim after he was killed. Portsman is so upset by the fact that his guilt has been proven that he faints. --- So, to summarize this cross-examination... Press the statement about Jim delivering evidence. Present the victim's note at the statement about two pieces of evidence. Flip the tape over and examine the blood. --- Portsman is arrested, and the lab guys confirm that the blood on the tape was the victim's. Maggey and Gumshoe are both very grateful to Edgeworth now. The case is pretty much over now, but we never DID find out why Portsman robbed Edgeworth's office. Gumshoe suggests that it is because of a behind-the-scenes organization. Edgeworth has a further problem. Present the stolen file at this point. We don't know why the second thief tried to steal this file! Who was that person, anyhow? An officer comes in, saying he found a card in the office. Edgeworth recognizes it as the calling card of Master Thief Yatagarasu! Yatagarasu is a thief who sneaks into corporations and expose corruption from the inside! The Master Thief Yatagarasu...corruption...a behind-the- scenes criminal organization...These are all dramatic things, and thanks to what happened not too long ago, Edgeworth knows about these things all too well. Specifically, Edgeworth learned about the behind-the- scenes criminal organization two days earlier, which is the story we go over in Case #2. After that, Case #3 took place, and that case involved the Master Thief Yatagarasu. Because of these two cases, Edgeworth can't say he was COMPLETELY caught off-guard by the sudden appearance of Yatagarasu and the criminal ring. 4. Case Two: Turnabout Airlines --------------------------------------------------------- -- Edgeworth remembers that two days ago, he was involved in a murder mystery, while flying back to America on an airplane. Specifically, there was some turbulence in mid-flight. Edgeworth, who has a childhood fear of earthquakes, collapsed, unconscious, for about ten minutes while in the First Class Lounge. Edgeworth then gets up and finds a travel wallet in his pocket. Weird. That's not HIS travel wallet! Oh well, no matter. Time to ride the elevator up and return to his seat... AUGH! A dead body is in the elevator! Worse yet, a flight attendant comes in at exactly this moment, and she assumes Edgeworth is the murderer. She quickly puts him under arrest, and the case begins. 4a. First Class Lounge, In-Flight Shop --------------------------------------------------------- -- The flight attendant is Rhoda Teneiro, and she is sure that Edgeworth is the killer. Edgeworth pleads for the chance to defend himself, so Ms. Teneiro gives testimony. Cross-Examination: What Ms. Teneiro Saw --------------------------------------- Ms. Teneiro isn't lying. She is sure Edgeworth is the killer. She saw him with the murder weapon in his hand, and it was dripping blood. That's pretty decisive testimony, except for the fact that Edgeworth never had a murder weapon. Go to the statement about him having the murder weapon in his hand, and present the Travel Wallet. See, Edgeworth wasn't holding a murder weapon! He was holding a wallet! Furthermore, the travel wallet is dripping with wine, er..."grape juice". Grape juice is not blood. Ms. Teneiro requests that the wallet be opened. Do so by selecting the latch with Scientific Investigation! Inside is the victim's passport. The victim's name is Akbey Hicks. Ms. Teneiro is shocked and immediately discerns a motive for the crime. --- So, to summarize this cross-examination... Present the travel wallet on the statement about the murder weapon in Edgeworth's hand. Open the travel wallet. Cross-Examination: Ms. Teneiro's Logic -------------------------------------- So, maybe Edgeworth wasn't caught with the murder weapon. He WAS caught with the victim's wallet. This indicates that Edgeworth killed the victim and then robbed him for money. Present the crime scene notes on the statement about money. You see, there is money strewn about the crime scene. Theft could not have been the motive in this case, because nothing was stolen, save the travel wallet. Of course, Edgeworth needs to prove this, so when given the chance to select something, select the money on the floor. Ms. Teneiro sees the flaw in her logic and apologizes. She frees Mr. Edgeworth, which upsets one of the other passengers: a foreigner by the name of Zinc Lablanc. He is an art dealer from the imaginary country of Borginia. Lablanc is hot-headed, and he is very obsessive about the time of the crime, because he wanted to watch the in- flight movie at 6:00. So he knows for a fact that the victim entered the elevator at 6:00. This tells us that the murder took place somewhere between 6:00 and 6:15. The captain of the airplane gives Edgeworth permission to investigate the crime scene, provided that Ms. Teneiro accompanies him at all times. She also has the power to end the investigation whenever she wants. Examine the first class area if you want to, but what you should do now is go to the left, then down the stairs to the first class lounge. --- So, to summarize this cross-examination... Present the Crime Scene Notes at the statement about money. Select the money on the ground. Investigation: First Class Lounge --------------------------------- Ms. Teneiro says that nobody entered or left first class near the time of the crime. Ergo, we have a First Class Killer. Investigation time! You can examine a bunch of things here, but there are only two areas you need to look at. Both of them give you close-ups of the area. First is the big "grape juice" stain outside the elevator. The close-up reveals something interesting. Select the footprints here. Apparently, someone left the elevator after the grape juice was spilled (at the time of the turbulence). So...someone left the elevator around the time of the murder. The second area to look at is the crime scene. You can get a close-up of the victim's body. Examine the corpse to get a bunch of information, such as the fact that the victim was hit on the back of the head, and his glasses were broken. What is the murder weapon? There's a figurine in the lower/right. It's a piggy bank of Mr. iFly, the airline company's mascot. It is also covered in blood, which makes it likely that it is the true murder weapon. There's a piece of paper in the victim's pocket. Examine it to find that it's a photo. Wait a minute! There's something in the photo which is missing from the crime scene...the cell phone that Zinc Lablanc complained about. Deduce at the cell phone holding device around the victim's neck. Then, present the photo of Mr. Hicks. Edgeworth notes that the cell phone is missing and puts this in his notes. That's all for investigation. We have a lot of information, so let's use Logic and clear up Mr. Edgeworth's cluttered head! You can make two connections right off the bat. Connect "Where was the killer" with "elevator". We don't know where the killer was, but we know the victim was in the elevator. The conclusion? The murderer was in the elevator, too. This is added to Logic. Connect "blunt force trauma" with "murder weapon". Edgeworth concludes that the murder weapon is, in fact, the murder weapon. This is added to the organizer. Connect "In the elevator with Hicks?" with "Spilled grape juice". We suspect the murderer was in the elevator, and we know there are footprints leading away from the elevator. Presumably, the person who made the footprints is the real murderer. So now we know for certain that the murderer was in the elevator. The grape juice footprints are added to the organizer. Investigation Complete! --- So, to summarize this bit of investigation... Examine the grape juice stain. Highlight the footprints. Examine the crime scene. Examine the corpse. Examine the figurine. Examine the paper in the victim's pocket. Deduce, using the cell phone neck strap. Present the picture of Mr. Hicks. Using Logic, connect "Where was the killer" with "elevator". Using Logic, connect "blunt force trauma" with "murder weapon". Using Logic, connect "In the elevator with Hicks?" with "Spilled grape juice". --- Zinc Lablanc, who is still angry, comes down to the lounge to complain that the in-flight move STILL isn't being shown. It was supposed to be shown at 6:00, and past 6:30! What's the hold-up? While complaining, Mr. Lablanc notices Edgeworth. He turns his anger on the good prosecutor and explains why Edgeworth has to be guilty. Cross-Examination: What I Saw ----------------------------- Lablanc saw Hicks enter the elevator to the lounge at six. At that time, Edgeworth was the only one in the lounge. The body was found at six-fifteen. Ergo, Edgeworth is the murderer. Press the statement about Hicks entering the elevator. Edgeworth will ask for more information. Lablanc says the elevator was empty; Hicks was alone in his trip on the elevator. This is too important to let pass by, so Edgeworth has it added to the testimony. Lablanc confirms that no one besides the victim was in the elevator. Present the Grape Juice Footprints at this statement. The footprints prove someone left the elevator after the turbulence. Ergo, Hicks could not have been the only one in the elevator. Lavlanc thinks this is totally impossible and gets upset. However, nobody thinks he is lying. So...why is there a contradiction? Perhaps more testimony will clear things up. --- To summarize this bit of cross-examination... Press the statement "I am certain I saw Mr. Hicks enter the elevator!" Present the Grape Juice Footprints at "The only person inside was that Mr. Hicks man!" Cross-Examination: What I Saw, Part 2 ------------------------------------- Lablanc was very upset when Hicks was passing by. He checked his watch many times, which is why he's so certain of the time. He is equally certain that no one else was in the elevator. Press the second statement, the one about Lablanc checking his watch constantly. Lablanc says that he was hoping to watch the movie at 6:00, which is why he was constantly checking his watch. This leads to Edgeworth checking the in-flight magazine, and a new statement about how Lablanc's watch is set to the destination's time. But...if you paid attention when Edgeworth checked the magazine, you noticed that the flight is set to the departure time. Present the in-flight magazine at the statement about the destination's time zone to show Mr. Lablanc the error of his ways. --- So, to summarize this bit of cross-examination... Press the statement about checking the watch many times. Present the in-flight magazine at the statement about the watch being set to the destination time zone. --- Ms. Teneiro confirms what is in the in-flight magazine. This plane is still working on the Borginian time zone, not the Californian time zone. That explains why the movie was not on at 6:00, as Lablanc expected. It also means that Lablanc saw the victim enter the elevator at 3:00, not 6:00. Edgeworth learns some new information, such as the fact that the plane made a brief stop in Zheng Fa from 4:00 to 5:00. The flight attendant who speaks Borginian, Cammy Meele, says that she saw the victim in his seat at 5:00. But wait! Edgeworth was in the lounge at 5:00 onward. So...that means Edgeworth is STILL the main suspect! Edgeworth is challenged to alleviate suspicion by showing the crime is tied to somewhere besides the lounge. You can present the footsteps which lead to the in-flight shop, but Lablanc is only convinced when you show the iFly Piggy Bank. The murder weapon came from the shop, right? That means the shop is worth investigating. Ms. Teneiro agrees. At 5:40, she saw the murder weapon in the shop. Wait, that's just before the murder! Ms. Teneiro, why didn't you meantion this EARLIER? Ms. Teneiro is looking suspicious now, and she seems even _more_ suspicious when it is revealed that she did not ask the captain for permission to investigate. Cammy did, however, so she's going to be Edgeworth's partner for the next leg of investigation. Fortunately, the investigation in the in-flight shop goes much more quickly than the previous investigation (because there's no cross-examination to be had here). Edgeworth begins the investigation by adding the piggy bank to Logic. Well, right off the start, I can see one thing that looks worthy of investigation: all the broken glass that's on the floor. Examine it to find a mini captain's hat. Gee, where did that come from? If you check Edgeworth's notes, you can probably figure it out. The hat goes on the piggy bank statue. Connect the statue to the hat in Logic, and Edgeworth concludes that the murder weapon probably came from this display case. The notes on the murder weapon are then updated. So let's take a closer look at the display. Hmmm...interesting. The Deduce button is here, so there must be a contradiction here. Perhaps there's a problem with the glass? Select the shelf the murder weapon goes on (the one in the middle that's empty), Deduce, then present the murder weapon. Edgeworth then uses his super logic skills to derive a contradiction. The glass is on the floor outside of the display case, therefore, the display case glass was broken from the inside. Woah! And since no one was inside the display case, obviously, that means the piggy bank broke the glass during the turbulence. But the turbulence took place AFTER the murder occurred so that means it can't be the murder weapon! Edgeworth adds the information about turbulence to his Logic. So much for investigating the display case. Examine the ugly suitcases that are 50% off. Ms. Teneiro designed these suitcases, in case you didn't know. Some turbulence hits, and one suitcases moves out of position. Wait a minute...turbulence. Didn't we just add something about turbulence to Logic? Open the Logic function. We know that whenever turbulence hits, the suitcase moves. We saw that just now. But...we also know turbulence hit at the time of the murder. However, the suitcase couldn't have moved then, because we didn't find it out of position. Odd. Logically connect the suitcase to the turbulence, and Edgeworth points out this odd contradiction. Ms. Meele doesn't understand what he's talking about, so let's help her out a bit. At the close-up picture of the suitcases, point out the missing wheel stoppers on the left suitcase. See? There are wheel stoppers on the right suitcase to prevent it from moving during turbulence! Why aren't there stoppers on the left suitcase? Edgeworth thinks it could be that the suitcase was placed here after the turbulence. In any case, this suitcase is looking highly suspicious. Time to take a closer look at it with scientific investigation. Open the suitcase by pressing the button the side of it. It's a blue button, and it's touching the red trip. Inside the suitcase is a piece of bloody cloth. Augh! Okay, it's official: the suitcase is DEFINITELY related to the murder somehow. But it's rather unlikely that someone would use a suitcase to transport a bloody cloth. No, the murderer probably transported something much bigger...the victim's body. Present the crime scene notes here, which have a picture of the victim's body. So now Edgeworth has a pretty good idea of the crime scene. Well, kind of. The murder weapon is NOT the piggy bank from the In-Flight Shop, and the corpse was transported to the First Class Lounge by means of a suitcase. It looks likes the actual murder didn't take place in the lounge OR the in-flight shop. Rhoda Teneiro comes in and informs Edgeworth that the investigation is over. That is, the captain thinks Edgeworth has had enough time to investigate. Faced with the dead end, Edgeworth is forced to stop investigation, but he's still curious as to the real culprit to this crime. --- So, to summarize this bit of investigation... Examine the broken glass. Using Logic, connect the captain's hat to the murder weapon. Examine the display case Deduce, using the empty shelf in the display case. Present the piggy bank. Examine the suitcases. Using Logic, connect the suitcases to the turbulence. Present the wheels of suitcase on the left. Open the suitcase. Present the Crime Scene Notes. 4b. Franziska Appears --------------------------------------------------------- -- Edgeworth, of course, preserves the crime scene until the plane lands, at which time, he is instructed to leave the matter to the local police. Fortunately, our friend Gumshoe is part of the local police, as well as...Franziska? Hey, it's Franziska von Karma! She was the leading prosecutor in Phoenix Wright 2: Justice For All! She's also the daughter of Manfred von Karma, Edgeworth's mentor, so the two of them saw a lot of each other while growing up. In fact, they have a semi-brother/sister relationship, even though they're not related. Franziska, however, is usually angry at Edgeworth, because he's always showing her up. HE was the first one to get his attorney's badge, not her. HE was the first one to defeat Phoenix Wright in court, not her. And HE gets to star in his own videogame, while she gets relegated to the role of secondary character. Understandably, she's upset about this. Oh, and she has a whip. It's best not to get on her bad side. Franziska is upset with Edgeworth right now because he's a murder suspect, but she doesn't think he's REALLY the culprit, so she agrees to let him continue his investigation...for now. Franziska then calls in Detective Gumshoe and asks him to guard Edgeworth. Talk to Gumshoe about everything. It seems that Franziska mysteriously appeared in the United States, and she was so quick in getting to this crime scene that Gumshoe suspects she knew about the murder ahead of time. Interesting...could Franziska's current case be somehow related to the murder on the airplane? Go left and Edgeworth boards the plane. There is a brief scene of Franziska interrogating the plane captain and whipping him. Edgeworth moves on to the in-flight longue, where Mr. Lablanc is still very angry, this time at being detained on the plane after it has already landed. Talk to Mr. Lablanc here. He is upset (naturally) because he isn't being allowed to examine his artwork in the cargo hold. He has all sorts of art, from statues to costumes. Speaking of costumes...doesn't Mr. Lablanc's hat resemble the bloody cloth we found in the suitcase? Ask him about it, and he says it's a very common cloth to ship overseas due to its popularity, and he isn't transporting any on this flight. Lablanc complains about Ms. Teneiro, whose investigation is taking a long time. Ask him about that, and Edgeworth agrees that it is unusal that the police haven't finished interrogating her yet. Franziska von Karma will come in, because she's finished talking with the captain and Cammy Meele. Unfortunately, she still thinks Edgeworth is the most likely suspect, so there is no need to talk to Miss Teneiro (which is what Edgeworth wants to do). We'll have to disprove Franziska's logic here to continue the investigation. --- So, to summarize this bit of investigation: Talk to Gumshoe about both topics. Go left, to the in-flight lounge. Present the Bloody Cloth to Zinc Lablanc. Talk to Lablanc about Rhoda Teneiro. Cross-Examination: Franziska's Logic ------------------------------------ Franziska says she'll keep things simple. The crime scene is the first class lounge. The only person in the lounge at the time was Edgeworth; ergo, he is the most likely suspect. If you press her statements, you learn the Franziska doesn't know all the facts of the case yet. This is the main flaw in her argument; she hasn't learned about Edgeworth's discoveries in the in-flight shop. Namely, she doesn't know that the murder took place outside of the elevator. At the statement which says the murder took place in the elevator, present the suitcase. The body was transported to the elevator by means of the suitcase. That's pretty clear evidence that the murder took place elsewhere, right? Franziska wants more evidence. Present the Grape Juice Footprints, then select the tracks left by the wheels of the suitcase. Given the fact that the suitcase wheels have grape juice residue on them, it is now certain that this suitcase was taken through the area after the turbulence. Franziska agrees, but she doesn't think this exonerates Edgeworth. After all, who's to say that the suitcase transported the dead body, and not just the bloody cloth? Further, this murder could have been premeditated, an idea Franziska expounds upon in her next testimony. --- So, to summarize this cross-examination: Present the suitcase at the statement which says the first-class lounge is the scene of the crime. Present the grape juice footprints. Present the tracks left by the wheels of the suitcase. Cross-Examination: Franziska's Logic, Part Two ---------------------------------------------- Franziska argues the murder was pre-meditated. Edgeworth prepared the piggy bank ahead of time, and he was in the process of moving the body away from the elevator in the suitcase when the turbulence hit. This sudden problem forced Edgeworth to double back and pretend to be the one who discovered the body. This is an interesting testimony from Franziska especially because, as Edgeworth points out, it accounts for the murder weapon. However, just like with the last piece of testimony, Franziska doesn't have all the facts. Namely, Edgeworth found out that the piggy bank was removed from the in-flight shop AFTER the turbulence (remember how the glass in the in-flight shop proved this?). Therefore, the piggy bank cannot be the murder weapon. So, at the first statement of the testimony, present the piggy bank. Edgeworth tells Franziska that it is not the real murder weapon. Edgeworth then gives a tidy summary of what we know so far. After the murder, the murderer did three things. 1) The murderer moved the suitcase containing the bloody cloth inside the in-flight shop. 2) The murderer took the piggy bank from the in-flight shop in order to make it seem that the piggy bank is the murder weapon. 3) The murderer framed Edgeworth by planting the victim's passport/wallet on him. However, there are no other possible murder weapons. So, either the weapon is still being hidden, or someone tampered with the glass in the in-flight shop to make it seem like the piggy bank was removed after the turbulence. The only person who could have tampered with the in-flight shop in such a way is the only person with the key to the cabinet: Rhoda Teneiro. Ms. Teneiro is in the attendant's room, which is to the left. Walk there now to enter the room. --- So, to summarize this cross-examination: Present the piggy bank at the statement about preparing the piggy bank beforehand. --- It's time to talk to Miss Teneiro now, and see what her relation to the crime is. She's keeping a secret about the in-flight shop; is this secret related to the murder? Or is it just a coincidence? Talk to Ms. Teneiro about the captain's permission. She lied when she said the captain gave her and Edgeworth permission to examine the crime scene. Why? She says she lied because she didn't think the captain would give permission, as he only listens to Cammy. Also, Ms. Teneiro wanted to make things up to Edgeworth after falsely accusing him of murder. Okay, so that's one mystery solved. What about the in- flight shop? Talk to Ms. Teneiro about that, and she lies, denying that she has any connection to the in- flight shop at all. Present the suitcase to Ms. Teneiro. She designed the suitcases in the shop, after all. There's a connection between her and the shop! Ms. Teneiro admits she was interested in seeing how well the suitcases were selling. Talk to Ms. Teneiro about the last suitcase. Apparently, there was only one left for sale! Oh, so they're selling very well! That's surprising, because they're ugly suitcases. And it's double surprising because there were two suitcases in the shop when Edgeworth looked. Speaking of suitcases, isn't that one in the corner? Ms. Teneiro says she bought it a long time ago, but that's an obvious lie. After all, it still has a price tag on it! Point out the price tag, and Edgeworth figures out the mystery. The suitcase in this room came from the in-flight shop, and it was purchased by Rhoda Teneiro. That's right, the only person willing to buy such a hideous suitcase is Ms. Teneiro. She felt really bad that her suitcase design was such a failure, so she determined to artificially boost sales by buying a suitcase every time she served a flight. So, that's her secret. She was in the in-flight shop to buy a suitcase. She didn't want to tell anyone about this, because it kinds of makes her look bad. After all, it's admitting that her suitcase design is a total failure. Okay, so this clears Ms. Teneiro of all wrongdoing, right? No...wait. There's still the problem of the extra suitcase, the one with the bloody cloth inside. We have just confirmed it did NOT come from the in-flight shop; of the two suitcases in the shop, one was purchased by Ms. Teneiro and the other one was there during the whole flight. So where did the third suitcase come from? Franziska knows something Edgeworth doesn't know; the suitcases come from the cargo hold. So this third suitcase must have been brought in from there. But...access to the cargo hold is blocked. You need a special keycard to get there, and Ms. Teneiro is the only one with this keycard. Ms. Teneiro checks her locker and is surprised to find the keycard is stolen. But was it REALLY stolen, or is she just pretending? Franziska places Ms. Teneiro under arrest in the meantime, and Edgeworth goes to examine the cargo hold. --- So, to summarize this bit of investigation... Talk to Ms. Teneiro about the captain's permission. Talk to Ms. Teneiro about the in-flight shop. Present the suitcase to Ms. Teneiro. Talk to Ms. Teneiro about the last suitcase. Present the price tag of the suitcase. Select the in-flight shop. Select Rhoda Teneiro. 4c. The Cargo Hold --------------------------------------------------------- -- If we've thought through everything correctly so far, the suitcase containing the bloody cloth was taken from here, the cargo hold. Also, Edgeworth suspects that the real murder took place here, and the body was transported to the in-flight lounge by means of the suitcase. Start off by examining the suitcases. Yep, one of them is clearly missing! This is almost certainly the place where the mysterious third suitcase came from! Also, Edgeworth notes that there are glass shards on the floor. That's odd, and he adds it to Logic. Speaking of suitcases, do you see an open black suitcase lying on the ground? Examine it to learn that it belongs to the victim. Inside is a picture of Franziska, along with a profile on her. Woah! Sounds like Franzy's got a stalker! Edgeworth adds this to Logic. Talk to Franziska. She talks a little bit about why she was able to get to this crime scene so quickly: she's working with Interpol on a top-secret assignment. So, she was already at the airport, on other business. Logic Time! Open up Logic to see that Edgeworth has four things here, and two pretty obvious connections to make. First, connect the broken glasses to the glass shards. Edgeworth is confident that the glass shards here in the cargo hold come from the victim's broken glasses. Ergo, this is the real scene of the murder, as Edgeworth has suspected for quite some time now. Second, connect the profile on Franziska with the fact that she's working for Interpol. It seems that the victim was working for Interpol; in fact, it seems that he was Franziska's contact. Talk to Franziska about the victim. She confirms that she was going to meet with Agent Hicks on official Interpol business. In fact, Agent Hicks is on the trail of a smuggling ring. He was working undercover, and he was supposed to meet with Franziska upon landing. Edgeworth figures investigation is over (for now). We have a pretty good idea of what happened: Agent Hicks went to the cargo hold as part of his investigation of the smuggling ring. The question is how did he get down to the cargo hold? He must have travelled with a member of the flight crew. The crew member then killed him in the cargo hold, and stuffed his body in a suitcase. While travelling in the elevator, the plane hit a spot of turbulence, and the body flew out of the suitcase. Investigation Complete! Based off the investigation, Franziska concludes that Ms. Teneiro is the murderer, and she explains why. --- So, to sum up this bit of investigation... Examine the double row of suitcases. Examine the black, open suitcase. Talk to Franziska about the airport. Using logic, connect the broken glasses with the glass shards. Using logic, connect Franziska's profile with Interpol. Talk to Franziska about Mr. Hicks. Cross-Examination: Definitive Evidence -------------------------------------- Franziska thinks all the evidence points to Ms. Teneiro. After all, only someone with the right keycard, Ms. Teneiro's keycard, could get down to the cargo hold with the victim. Press the statement about the keycard that allows elevator access, as it is the crux of her argument. She will supplement her testimony with a new statement about how Ms. Teneiro is ALSO the only person with access to the display case that the murder weapon came from. Press this new statement about the key to the display case with the murderous piggy bank. After all, there's a big flaw in this statement. Edgeworth proved the piggy bank was NOT the murder weapon some time ago! Clearly, something else needs to be investigated. What is it? Select "the body". We don't have an autopsy report, so we can't confirm or disconfirm the piggy bank as the murder weapon. Gumshoe runs off to get the autopsy report, and he comes back with the news that, as expected, the piggy bank is NOT the murder weapon. You see, the victim has a large wound which covers most of his back. What weapon could THAT be from? Enter Zinc Lablanc, the angry foreigner. He gets in a fight with a police officer and is pushed off the top of the stairs. Edgeworth suddenly has a flash of insight: someone pushed off the top of the stairs could possibly die. Edgeworth immediately jumps to Logic. Connect the piggy to the cause of death to receive "the missing weapon". Connect "the missing weapon" to "a sizeable weapon". Edgeworth boldly proclaims he knows what the murder weapon is. Franziska wants evidence, but say you don't have evidence to show, because the victim died from a free fall. Zinc Lablanc gets up, perfectly unharmed, because he landed on a piece of cargo. Franziska concludes that this means a fall from the top of the stairs is not fatal, but Edgeworth concludes that the piece of cargo in question wasn't there at the time the victim was pushed. What time was that? Present the article on refueling in Zheng Fa. New cargo was taken onboard at that time, so the murder must have been during/before that time. --- So, to summarize this bit of cross-examination... Press the statement about the keycard and the elevator. Press the statement about the murderous piggy bank. Select "The body". Using Logic, connect the piggy bank to the cause of death. Using Logic, connect the missing weapon with the sizeable weapon. Select "I don't have evidence to show". Select "Free fall". Select "Refueling in Zheng Fa". --- Investigation immediately picks up again, because Edgeworth needs to learn more about this piece of cargo and ascertain whether or not it was moved. Naturally, the first thing you want to do is look at the cargo box. When you do so, Mr. Lablanc runs down and starts hollering about how you should keep your hands off his artwork. Ah, it appears he owns the piece of cargo. Well, this should certainly clear things up for us! Talk to him about it. He tells you that the artwork is very valuable, in addition to being big. Edgeworth adds this to Logic. Open up Logic now. If people are smuggling things on the plane, and the most valuable thing onboard is this piece of artwork, then the smugglers might have targeted this piece of art! In other words, it could be a fake! Lablanc is sure it is not a fake, because he has some certification documents saying it is real. However, those documents might be fake, too. Let's take a closer look. The statue is unveiled, and it's called the Alif Red statue. The victim had a photo of it, and...wait, doesn't something look weird about the statue? In the victim's photo, the statue has different-colored eyes! Deduce at the eyes, then present the victim's photo. Yep, this statue looks like a fake now! Edgeworth is sure he can further prove it is a fake, so do some more deduction. Move down to the bottom of the statue. Deduce at the cover underneath the statue. Present the Cargo from Zheng Fa here. Obviously, if the statue is ABOVE the cargo from Zheng Fa, it was put onboard AFTER the stop at Zheng Fa. Therefore, as Edgeworth suspected, the statue is a fake. Franziska orders the statue to be moved, and sure enough, there's a blood stain underneath. It was cleaned up, however. By what? Select the bloody cloth. It makes sense this was used to clean up the blood from the murder. Edgeworth now gets to choose his next witness. That witness is the real murderer, the flight attendant who led the victim to the cargo hold...Cammy Meele. Edgeworth now has proof she was lying, so he wants to confront her with it. --- So, to summarize this bit of investigation... Examine the large cargo box Talk to Lablanc about his cargo. Using Logic, connect the smuggling ring with the valuable piece of art. Talk to Lablanc about the possibility of the smuggling ring wanting to steal his valuable piece of art. Deduce, using the statue's eyes. Present the photo of the victim at the statue. Deduce, using the cloth under the statue. Present the cargo from Zheng Fa. Select the bloody cloth. Select Cammy Meele. 4d. Confrontation --------------------------------------------------------- -- After the chance to save your game, the investigation picks up again in the cargo hold. Cammy Meele is now here, along with Rhoda Teneiro. Cammy is sleepy, and she seems amused that she is now a suspect. Cross-Examination: Ms. Meele's Alibi ------------------------------------ Cammy is pretty sleepy, but she wakes up long enough to say she was in the flight attendant's room from 3 to 4, and 5 to 6. Press the last statement about her being alone in the flight attendant's room from 5 to 6, and raise an objection when given the opportunity. We have proof that someone else was in the flight attendant's room at that time! Remember? Ms. Teneiro bought a suitcase at 5:40 AM and dropped it off. The suitcase receipt in the evidence proves this, so present that. Why is it that Ms. Teneiro didn't see Cammy in the flight attendant's room when she visited the room at 5:40? Cammy makes up an excuse on the spot: she was in the bathroom at the time. Edgeworth can't disprove this statement, so the cross-examination ends. Fortunately for us, Cammy gives a new piece of testimony in an attempt to exonerate herself. Hopefully, the testimony will do just the opposite. --- So, to summarize this cross-examination... Press the statement about 5 to 6. Raise an objection. Present the suitcase receipt. Cross-Examination: Reason for Suspicion --------------------------------------- Cammy thinks that Edgeworth is defending Ms. Teneiro because the two of them kind of like each other. Interesting idea. However, it's obviously that a flight attendant committed the crime, and Ms. Teneiro is totally suspicious, because she's in charge of the flight shop and has the keycard to the cargo hold. Press the statement about the keycard and the shop to get a new piece of testimony. Edgeworth learns that Cammy is in charge of all foreign guests who don't speak English; as we saw earlier, she speaks fluent Borginian. She also is in charge of all documents written in Borginian. Hey, we have a document written in Borginian! The falsified certificate which says the forged statue is real! Go to the statement that says Cammy is in charge of Borginian stuff, and present the certificate. Cammy gets a little upset now. She admits that she signed off on the certificate without actually checking to make sure it was legit, but that doesn't mean she's a murderer or a member of the smuggling ring. In fact, even if she WAS a smuggler, that doesn't mean she's a murderer. Franziska disagrees; if Cammy worked for the smugglers, she would have a strong motive for murder. Cammy accuses Ms. Teneiro, but Edgeworth defends her. It's obvious the killer went to great lengths to frame Ms. Teneiro, ergo, Ms. Teneiro is most likely NOT the killer. How was she framed? Present the suitcase. The killer went out of his or her way to use a suitcase that is only owned by Ms. Teneiro. Either Ms. Teneiro is very bad at covering her tracks, or the killer was deliberately trying to frame her. Why would the killer frame her? Because of where the murder took place: on an airplane. There was no question of hiding the body before the plane landed; ergo, the killer had to frame someone. It's a very nice (and accurate) picture that Edgeworth has painted here, but it's all circumstantial. Time to change gears. Is there any evidence Edgeworth hasn't looked at yet? Pick the cell phone. Yeah, what happened to the victim's cell phone? Franziska calls it, and it starts ringing. Let's see if we can find it. Go upstairs and look in Ms. Teneiro's locker. The cell phone is there! It looks like the murderer did a really thorough job in trying to frame her. Franziska is ready to arrest Ms. Teneiro again, but Edgeworth tells her to "Hold it!" They haven't examined the cell phone yet. If the killer stole the cell phone, odds are there is some incriminating evidence on it. Edgeworth examines the cell phone. Turn it around to see a camera lens. Examine it to learn that there is a photo on the cell phone. This is our only lead, so we have to examine it, even though it's a photo of the smuggling operation, not the kidnapping. You can examine several things in the picture, but the important thing to look at is the boxes in the lower/right. The boxes are cargo that was dropped off at Zheng Fa; they contain cloth. Wait a second...cloth! Could it be? Yes! Present the piece of bloody cloth. This must be where the bloody cloth came from. The killer pushed the victim off the top of the stairs, and cleaned up the blood with a cloth from one of the boxes down here. What's more, the word "cloth" is written on the crates in Borginian. This must mean the killer was able to read Borginian, right? Cammy disagrees; the killer could have just looted all the boxes in the area until finding the one with Borginian cloth inside. After all, if you're looking for something to clean up a blood spill, you aren't picky about what box you go through. Edgeworth disagrees, because there's a better box here. Select the only other box in view, the one which has "bedsheets" written on it. If the killer wanted something to clean up a blood spill, the killer would have opened the box of bedsheets first. Unless, of course, the killer could read Borginian. The fact that the killer opened up the Borginian box of cloth before the English box of bedsheets indicates the killer can read Borginian. The only crew member who speaks Borginian is Cammy, and therefore, she is the murderer. In the face of this logic, Cammy confesses that she is the murderer. --- So, to summarize this bit of cross-examination... Press the statement about the keycard and in-flight shop. Present the Alif Red Certificate at the statement about Borginian stuff. Present the suitcase. Select "Where the murder took place" Present the cell phone. Go upstairs. Examine Ms. Teneiro's locker. Turn the cell phone over and examine the camera. Examine the boxes in the lower/right. Present the Borginian Cloth. Present the box of bedsheets. --- Cammy is arrested, and Ms. Teneiro is freed. She thanks Edgeworth by giving him a complimentary suitcase. How sweet! Edgeworth decides to stop and talk to Franziska von Karma before she leaves. She says another agent is working on the smuggling ring case with her, and she hints that Edgeworth may meet this person someday. After that vague bit of foreshadowing, there is a more concrete bit of foreshadowing: Edgeworth gets a phone call from Ernest Armano, who wants him to help with a kidnapping case. 5. Case Three: The Kidnapped Turnabout --------------------------------------------------------- -- Edgeworth is working on the kidnapping case now. He has the money, and he's prepared to make the drop-off for Mr. Amano. But where is he? He's in Gatewater Land, a theme park based off the Blue Badger. That's a very unlikely place for a kidnapping exchange, but Edgeworth isn't in charge here: the kidnapper is. The kidnapper forces Edgeworth to go to the Stadium, then the Haunted House. He drops off the money is a room, as ordered, and exits. While he's standing guard outside the room, waiting for the police to show up, someone in a costume sneaks up behind him and knocks him unconscious. What a dramatic start to the case! 5a. Held Hostage in the Wild, Wild West --------------------------------------------------------- -- Edgeoworth wakes up, tied up in a strange room. Oh no! He's been taken hostage! He tries to escape, but he can't because the ropes are too tight. Then, someone jumps into the room to free him. It's Kay Faraday, the Great Thief Yatagarasu. Wait, THE Yatagarasu? Really? The famous great thief just happened to be strolling by, and she decided to help Edgeworth. That's kind of hard to believe, especially because Yatagarasu is such a professional, and this girl is...not. Talk to Kay about everything you can, which is pretty much limited to the Yatagarasu. Once that's done, it's time to escape...except Kay wasn't smart and came in without any idea how to get back out again. Looks like it's up to Edgeworth's logic and investigation skills to figure out how to leave this room. Examine the cell phone on the tarp to start a cutscene where Edgeworth calls Detective Gumshoe. The call is interrupted by Interpol Agent Shi-Long Lang, who basically says the situation is Edgeworth's fault, so he won't help at all. What a meanie! What you want to do now is basically examine everything in order to get all sorts of information and logic. Examining the badger head on the ground gets you information about the Bad Badger. Examining the sign on the ground gets you information about the Badger Photo Rally. And examining the boxes gets you the Blue Badger Bible, as well as some logic about costumes. While examining the boxes, you might notice that there's a key in the upper/left. Grab that key because it might come in handy. Examine the lockers on the far left side of the room to get a piece of logic about the lockers. Examine the beam Edgeworth was tied to get a piece of logic about the beam. Once all that investigation is done, talk to Kay about the kidnapping. She tells you that the kidnappers were in the next room. She then steps aside so Edgeworth can look into the next room, so do so. In the next room, Edgeworth sees a trap door and gets a piece of logic. It's LOGIC TIME! The trap door in the other room is held in place by a hook...there's a similar hook in the room they're in now...what if the hook in this room is ALSO designed to hold open a trap door? Connect "the beam I was tied to" to "open floor panel", and Edgeworth searches for a trap door. Aha! There IS a trap door in this room! Unfortunately, it's locked. We have a small key, so connect "tiny key" to "underground entrance" in Logic. Edgeworth then decides to try using the key on the locked trap door. The trap door is now unlocked, but it doesn't lead anywhere useful. It just leads to an empty room with a ladder. The ladder can be moved from one place to another, so Edgeworth adds this information to Logic. Open up Logic one last time, and connect the "underground ladder" with the "lockers". Using the ladder, Edgeworth and Kay can easily get on top of the lockers to reach the open window. And of course, that's just what they do. Freedom! --- So, to summarize this bit of investigation... Talk to Kay about the great thief. Talk to Kay about the Yatagarasu Examine Edgeworth's cell phone. Examine the Bad Badger head. Examine the photo rally sign. Examine the boxes. Examine the key near the boxes. Examine the lockers on the far left. Examine the beam Edgeworth was tied to. Talk to Kay about the kidnapping. Examine the door to the room. Examine the trap door. Using Logic, connect "the beam I was tied to" with "open floor panel". Examine the trap door. Using logic, connect "tiny key" with "underground entrance". Using logic, connect "underground ladder" with "lockers" --- Edgeworth and Kay land in the Wild, Wild West. Detective Gumshoe shows up and apologizes for letting Edgeworth out of his sight, as well as getting Interpol involved in the case. Speaking of which... 99 Interpol agents are here, along with their leader, Shi-Long Lang and his assistant, Shih-Na. Shi-Long Lang has the most successful arrest record in Interpol, and he's working with Franziska von Karma to stop the smuggling ring we learned about in Case #2. He's also the person we called on Edgeworth's cell phone not too long ago. Agent Lang exchanges cards with Edgeworth as a sign of friendship, but he doesn't like prosecutors, so he orders Edgeworth off the case. He even goes so far as to mock America's court system! The nerve! Well, since there's no official investigation going on now, it's a good time to chat with Detective Gumshoe. Gumshoe talks about how Agent Lang basically showed up out of nowhere to assume control over the police in this kidnapping situation, and Gumshoe talks about Kay Faraday. Poor Gumshoe is upset that Kay has stolen his role as Edgeworth's sidekick, but then again, Kay IS a thief, so that's to be expected. Talk to Kay about everything. She talks more about the Yatagarasu, and what to do next. Ernest Amano arrives on the scene. He's the father of the man who was kidnapped. He has huge earlobes and extensive international connections. He is also upset to learn that the kidnappers took the money, but failed to return his son. Talk Ernest to learn more about the case. His son, Lance, is 21 and popular with women. His best friend, Oliver Deacon, the Amano family butler, disappeared around the time Lance was kidnapped. Mysterious! Edgeworth resolves to solve this case, and since Gumshoe is taken away, it looks like Kay is our assistant right now. Head to the right, where we have a witness. It's the Blue Badger! Talk to him to learn that he is really Mike Meekins, inept police officer! Talk to him about everything to learn that he has been patrolling the park all day, and he has specifically been in this area for the past hour. He has not, however, seen anyone suspicious besides a second Blue Badger. Wait...a second Blue Badger? That contradicts some of our evidence! Namely, it contradicts the Badger Photo Rally, which says there's only ONE of each badger in the park right now. Present the Badger Photo Rally when prompted to prove this, and get some Logic about a second Blue Badger. Head left, where Edgeworth finds a series of footprints in the dirt, thanks to the light rain. They might belong to the kidnapper, but what shoes did the kidnapper wear? LOGIC TIME! Connect "costumes" with "a second Blue Badger". Obviously, the kidnapper escaped from the costume room disguised as the Blue Badger. And since we know THIS, we know what kind of shoes the kidnapper wore. While still in Logic, connect "costumed escape" with "What kind of shoes?" Clearly, the kidnapper's shoes were badger feet. Examine the footprints again, and Kay follows the badger footprints. The footprints lead right to...Officer Meekins??? No, wait, they lead to the garage behind him. Right. Examine the garage door, and Meekins will open it for you. Inside is the Blue Badger's car and...the dead body of Oliver Deacon? Oh no! Mr. Amano's butler was killed! And recently, it seems. Let's examine the scene of the murder. Check out the blood wound to notice two things. One, there are two wounds, made by one bullet. Two, there is no blood here in the garage, even though it is a bloody murder. Clearly, the murder took place elsewhere. Examine the necklace that Mr. Deacon is wearing. It looks rather fancy, but the name engraved on it is not Mr. Deacon's. That's a contradiction, so deduce at the necklace and present the preliminary findings as contradictory to the necklace. Whose necklace is it? What happened to the kidnapper that was in the garage? Where was Mr. Deacon killed? The investigation will have to continue...or not. Investigation complete! --- So, to summarize this bit of investigation... Talk to Gumshoe about everything. Talk to Kay about everything. Talk to Ernest Amano about everything. Talk to the Blue Badger about everything. Present the Badger Photo Rally. Examine the footprints on the left. Using Logic, connect "Costumes" with "A 2nd Blue Badger". Using Logic, connect "Costumed escape" with "What kind of shoes?". Examine the footprints. Examine the garage door. Examine the blood. Examine the necklace. Deduce, using the necklace Present the preliminary findings. --- Lauren Paups appears on the scene. She is the girlfriend of Lance, the man who was kidnapped. She also has no sense of inner monologue, and it is apparent that she is romantically challenged. She'll become more important later on in this case; for now, all you need to do is know who she is. Agent Lang reappears with his assistant, Shih-na. He heard about the dead body, and he's here to investigate. The first thing he does is arrest Officer Meekins. Edgeworth interrupts, because he doesn't want to see Meekins get arrested without good reason. Besides, Meekins is clearly not a murderer or a kidnapper. He may be incompetent, but he is definitely good-natured. Agent Lang finds Edgeworth's outburst amusing, and he agrees to give testimony as to why Meekins is guilty. Cross-Examination: Shi-Long Lang's Logic ---------------------------------------- Agent Lang can tell the victim was shot with a gun, and it's pretty hard to get a gun...unless you're a police officer like Mike Meekins. Agent Lang talks about the philosophy of detainment, which originated in his home country of Zheng Fa about a thousand years ago. It was founded by Lang Zi, Agent Lang's honorable ancestor. Press the last statement of the testimony, the one about Officer Meekins being a member of law enforcement. Edgeworth reminds Agent Lang that Officer Meekins' gun hasn't even been looked at yet. Lang asks to see Meekins' gun, and Officer Meekins admits that he lost it. Uh oh! This causes Lang to put a new statement into his testimony. He says that Officer Meekins waited for the victim to arrive at this spot before killing him. Well, we know that the garage is NOT the scene of the murder, so present the preliminary findings at this statement to disprove it. Lang laughs at Edgeworth's logic and agrees that he is right. Something is odd, though; why is Mike Meekins here at all? After all, he wasn't assigned to the Wild Wild West as part of his police duties. Meekins is required to testify. --- So, to summarize this bit of cross-examination... Press the statement "Not unless you're a member of law enforcement like Officer Meekins, isn't that right?" Present the preliminary findings at the statement "Officer Meekins ambushed the victim in this garage and killed him here with his gun!" Cross-Examination: Meekins's Testimony -------------------------------------- Meekins was supposed to guard the front gate, but he got so caught up in the role of entertaining children that he lost track of what he was doing. Eventually, he ended up here at the Wild, Wild West by means of the Blue Badgermobile. Present the Blue Badgermobile at the statement about looking for kidnappers in the Blue Badgermobile. There's a slight contradiction here. Meekins is claiming that he was out with the Blue Badgermobile until recently. But...the Blue Badgermobile is here in the garage. What's up with that? Meekins says the Blue Badgermobile was stolen recently. Lang doubts this. He thinks it's more likely that the Blue Badgermobile was used by Meekins to transport the dead body. Lang then arrests Meekins and orders Edgeworth and Kay out of the area. 5b. The Stadium --------------------------------------------------------- -- Our heroes reconvene at the front gate, where they reaffirm that they are dead-set on solving the murder mystery. Detective Gumshoe shows up to tell Edgeworth that they found a witness in the stadium, then Gumshoe is taken away. Edgeworth and Kay rush to the stadium, where they meet...Ema Skye, scientific investigator! She likes Edgeworth, and she was a witness in the fifth case of the first Phoenix Wright game, the case where the Blue Badger character was introduced. Unfortunately, Ema's role in this game is very small. Talk to her about everything now, because, well, you won't talk to her that much later. You see, as it turns out, Ema is NOT the witness we're looking for. Darn. Examine the pink badgermobile to have the witness appear. It's the Pink Badger herself. Talk to her to learn that she's...Wendy Oldbag! Edgeworth's elderly stalker! The one who makes up all sorts of crazy lies as an excuse to get close to Edgeworth! Uh oh! Talk to Wendy Oldbag to learn that she is the witness Edgeworth has been looking for. Great. The witness ends up being one of the least reliable person in the park. Wendy Oldbag gives a testimony, which is probably full of lies. Edgeworth hasn't really started his investigation here yet, so he can't disprove the lies in the testimony. Instead, you just have to press every statement of the testimony, and Edgeworth decides he'd better investigate. Kay then pulls out the Little Thief, a holograph projector, in order to help recreate the crime scene. That's useful! --- So, to summarize this part of the game... Talk to Ema Skye about everything. Examine the Pink Badgermobile. Talk to the Pink Badger. Talk to Wendy Oldbag about everything. Press the statement about the two men. Press the statement about a gunshot. --- The investigation begins, but the crime scene recreation isn't complete yet! Examine the blue body to find a contradiction right off the bat. Kay doesn't see the contradiction, so present the murder notes to her. It was a very bloody murder, but there was no blood at the crime scene. The question of the missing blood is added to Logic. Sounds like it's LOGIC TIME! Open up Logic and connect the two things there: the lack of blood at the crime scene, and the possibility that the victim was wearing a blue badger character costume. Edgeworth concludes the victim WAS dressed in a costume, which is why there's no blood here. He needs to prove this theory, however, so talk to Ema Skye. She works her scientific investigation magic to prove that there are Blue Badger footprints in this area. Investigation complete. --- So, to sum up this bit of investigation.... Examine the blue body. Present the murder notes. Using Logic, connect "Why is there no blood?" with "Victim was kidnapper?" Talk to Ema about footprint analysis. --- Now, Edgeworth has enough information to find the problem with Wendy Oldbag's testimony. She said the murderer and the victim were both average Joes and completely uninteresting. Did she NOT notice that one of the two people was wearing a Blue Badger costume? At the statement that says she saw the two men, present the victim's costume. Confronted with this information, Oldbag admits that she saw the murder...from a seat in the second tier balcony, which is too far away to see anything, especially if your eyesight is weak like Oldbag's. It's not a complete loss, however! Oldbag gives Edgeworth a new piece of logic: the fact that the two men were in the shadow of the stage. Examine the stage on the left. The stage has been broken down, so it is not all there anymore. This is added to logic. Edgeworth has two pieces of logic about the stage, so...it's LOGIC TIME! Using Logic, connect the two pieces of information, and Edgeworth deduces that the stage was still set up during the time of the murder. Kay resets the hologram display to account for this. There is an obvious error in Kay's recreation: the murdering red person is standing in the stage. Examine it, and Kay resets the parameters of her device so the killer is standing on top of the stage. Investigation complete. --- To summarize this bit of investigation: Present the victim's costume at the statement about two men facing each other. Examine the stage. Using Logic, connect "In the shadow of the stage" with "The stage was packed up". Examine the red body. -- Agent Lang shows up with Shih-Na at this point, and as you might have guessed, he's still an antagonist. He gives back-handed thanks to Edgeworth and Kay for their hard work in recreating the scene of the crime, then proceeds to explain how Mike Meekins is still the killer. Cross-Examination: Agent Lang's Logic ------------------------------------- The stadium is the real scene of the crime. Officer Meekins stood on the stage, waiting for the victim to appear. He shot Mr. Deacon from on high! Agent Lang's testimony is accurate, according to Kay's recreation. However, the recreation is not complete. If you check the murder notes one more time, you'll notice that the victim was shot from below, not from above. Clearly, there's been a slight mistake made here. Present the murder notes at the statement about the victim being shot from on high. Agent Lang demands clarification, so say that the problem is with "the killer's and victim's locations". Somehow, the two were switched. The recreation is then updated again. Now, the killer is standing below the stage, while the victim is standing on top of the stage. Since footprints don't lie, and the only footprints in this area belong to a Blue Badger character, that means the killer was in costume, just like the victim was. So...both the killer and the victim were wearing Badger costumes. Presumably, both of them were in disguise, because they were both working as part of the kidnapping plot. Agent Lang agrees, but he does not think it exonerates Officer Meekins. --- So, to summarize this bit of cross-examination... Present the murder notes at the statement about the victim being shot from on high. Select "the killer's and the victim's locations". Cross-Examination: Another Bit of Proof ---------------------------------------- Agent Lang says that there are tire marks left on the ground here, tires from a Blue Badgermobile. Clearly, Officer Meekins performed the murder here, then transported the body to the Wild, Wild West afterwards. Agent Lang's theory _does_ make sense, in that it explains how the body was transported from the stadium to the Wild, Wild West. However, Officer Meekins' car could not have been the one to do this; as the picture of the car in the garage shows, its tires are clean. Therefore, it is not the car that left muddy tire marks. So, present the Blue Badgermobile at the statement "Then, he used the car to move the body to the garage in the Wild, Wild West Area." Then, select the clean tires. Edgeworth will explain his theory. Well, if the car that transported the body wasn't Officer Meekins', whose was it? Was it the second car, belonging to Ms. Oldbag? She says no. By elimination, it must have been the third car, belonging to whoever was wearing the Proto Badger suit. A stranger then appears. It's...Lance Amano! He escaped from the kidnappers! How fortunate! Mr. Amano collapses on the ground. Agent Lang then kicks Edgeworth and Kay out of the area (again). Ema and Ms. Oldbag are taken by the police to give statements about what they witnessed, so we won't see them again in this case. Bye, Ema and Ms. Oldbag! --- To summarize this bit of cross-examination... Present the Blue Badgermobile at the statement "Then, he used the car to move the body to the garage in the Wild, Wild West Area." Select the car's tire 5c. The Kidnappers' Hideout --------------------------------------------------------- -- Edgeworth and Kay return to the Wild, Wild West. It's now open for them to investigate! They can also exit through the right-hand side of the screen to reach the park entrance, where you can see a cameo appearance by Phoenix Wright, Maya Fey and Pearl Fey. Poor Phoenix! Demoted to a non-speaking cameo. How the mighty have fallen. The important thing to do now, however, is to talk to the characters here. Both Mr. Amano and Lauren are here. Needless to say, they are quite happy that Lance is now safe and sound. Mr. Amano thanks Edgeworth for all his help, and he gives Edgeworth one of Lance's love letters. Um...Mr. Amano, that's not a love letter! It's a collections check from a loan company! I guess Lance owes money to the Tender Lender Company... When you talk to Lauren, she confirms the fact that she is romantically-challenged; for example, she believes that Lance loves her, because he gave her a piece of candy. Lauren talks a bit about her father, an Amano employee who used to travel around the world on Pegasus, an airplane. He disappeared ten years ago, and she worked for the Amanos ever since. Lauren was not told about the kidnapping, but she says she knows about it due to her women's intuition. I think she's lying about that... Kay asks Edgeworth where he wants to go next. Choose "Kidnapper's Hideout". If the killer is a kidnapper, there could be a clue in the hideout. The hideout is right over here, behind the officer who is standing guard. Talk to the officer in blue. He lets Edgeworth into the hideout, per the request of Detective Gumshoe. He also gives Edgeworth a dossier on Colin Devorae, a criminal who escaped from jail. This is the true identity of the murder victim in this case. Apparently, "Oliver Deacon" isn't a real person; it's just an alias Colin Devorae came up with. Does his death have anything to do with his incarceration ten years ago, or is this just a coincidence? The officer further tells Edgeworth that the door to the hideout was locked somehow; it took ten officers to break the door down. --- To summarize this bit of investigation... Talk to Ernest Amano about everything. Talk to Lauren Paups about everything. Select "Kidnapper's Hideout" Talk to the police officer. --- Our heroes enter the hideout, hoping to find some clues that will help them identify the kidnappers. First, we'll need information for Logic! Examine the dumpster at the bottom of the screen for a piece of Logic about the costumes. Examine the item on the floor, near the door, to have a piece of Logic about the broken prop sword. Finally, examine the door, and specifically look at the doorknob, for a piece of Logic about the door being unlocked. Good, good, now for information about the kidnappers. Check out the eating area in the upper left. Look at the three chairs, then the three cups. That's enough Logic for now! IT'S LOGIC TIME! Connect the three chairs to the three cups. Edgeworth concludes that there are three kidnappers. Connect the broken prop sword to the unlocked door. Clearly, the sword was used to keep the door in place, not the door's lock. The Proto Badger then shows up to check on the costumes. He finds that a Bad Badger costume is missing! Dramatic music plays, so this must be important to the plot. Edgeworth asks for more information. Both Bad Badger costumes should be in the costume storage room, because the Bad Badger costume is rarely used. In fact, it's only used during a stage show. Kay wonders if there is a fourth kidnapper, because four costumes were stolen by the kidnappers. Edgeworth thinks this is unlikely. Select the Pink Badger costume in the lower/right to show this is the case. The kidnappers decided to steal a Proto Badger, a Blue Badger and two Bad Badgers. If there were four kidnappers, wouldn't they have completed the set by taking the fourth, Pink Badger, costume? Edgeworth adds the information about the Bad Badger to Logic, which means that, once again...it's LOGIC TIME! There are only two things in Logic right now, making this an easy connection. Connect the Bad Badger costumes to the dumpster of old costumes. Edgeworth looks inside the dumpster, and he finds the missing Bad Badger costume. Both the head and gun are missing from the costume, though. Deduce at the hand which is missing a gun, then present the Blue Badger Bible. Edgeworth then takes note of the missing gun. Of course, the gun is loaded only with blanks. The investigation ends here, and Edgeworth and Kay leave the area. Detective Gumshoe shows up, saying a Blue Badger costume was just found at the park entrance. Our heroes run there to see what's going on. --- To sum up this bit of investigation... Examine the dumpster for old costumes. Examine the prop sword on the floor, near the floor. Examine the doorknob. Examine the three chairs. Examine the three cups. Using Logic, connect the three chairs to the three cups. Using Logic, connect the broken prop sword to the door. Talk with the Proto Badger. Choose the Pink Badger costume. Using Logic, connect the Bad Badger to Costume Pieces. Deduce at the right hand, and present the Blue Badger Bible. 5d. Confronting the Killer --------------------------------------------------------- -- Edgeworth, Kay and Gumshoe head to the park entrance. The costume is a Blue Badger costume, and it was recently discovered. It's very easy to see what part of the costume needs examining. Examine the neck hole. This gives you a pendant, which is very similar to the one found on Mr. Deacon's corpse. Agent Lang then appears with Shih-na, Lauren and Lance. Lang takes one look at the pendant, and he finds Lauren's name on it. Does that mean...Lauren is a kidnapper? Lauren admits to being one of the kidnappers. Lang decides that means she is also the killer, because the killer was a kidnapper, and he decides to end the investigation. (Officer Meekins was cleared of all crimes, offscreen.) Lauren confesses to the murder, but Edgeworth finds this to be a little too convenient. He demands that she give testimony about the murder. --- To get through this part of the game... Examine the neck hole. Cross-Examination: Ms. Paups' Confession ---------------------------------------- Mr. Deacon made up the kidnapping plan, but as soon as they got the money, he turned on Lauren and tried to kill her. Woah! Mr. Deacon tried to kill her? That's very interesting, but that series of events doesn't really follow from the evidence because, as you may have figured out, Lauren is really Mr. Deacon's daughter. She has an unknown father, he has an unknown daughter, and they have matching pendants, after all. Go to the statement about Mr. Deacon trying to kill her. Press it, then raise an objection. Present Mr. Deacon's pendant and then Lauren's pendant. The two of them fit together to form Pegasus, the name of the plane her father used to ride. Present the dossier on Colin Devorae, and highlight the word "daughter". Clearly, Mr. Devorae pretended to be Mr. Deacon, in order to get close to his daughter. He couldn't reveal his identity to her, though, because he was a criminal on the run from the law. Lang begins to laugh at this point, and he offers another interpretation of events. --- To get through this cross-examination... Press the statement "...Mr. Deacon turned on me, and tried to kill me!" Select "Raise an objection". Present Mr. Deacon's Pendant. Present Ms. Paups's Pendant. Present Colin Devorae Dossier. Select the word "daughter". Cross-Examination: Another Possibility -------------------------------------- What if Lauren and the victim are related, but they both knew it? They were working together, as family members, to commit the kidnapping. Lang's theory is wrong, in that his information is not up-to-date. He still thinks there are two kidnappers. The recent investigation in the kidnappers' hideout shows that there were really THREE kidnappers. So, go to the statement about "the two of them", and present the stolen costumes (which shows there are three kidnappers, not two). Edgeworth thinks the third kidnapper is the real mastermind behind the kidnapping, and he knew that Lauren and the victim were related. Who is this third kidnapper? Lance Amano. Present his picture at this juncture. That's right, Lance faked his own kidnapping. Lance denies this, so Edgeworth requests some testimony about his overly convenient escape from the kidnappers. ---- To sum up this cross-examination... Present the stolen costumes at the statement "And the two of them made good use of their meetings to plan this little kidnapping." Present Lance Amano. Cross-Examination: Lance's Testimony ------------------------------------ Lance was kidnapped and held hostage. He was blindfolded the whole time, but when it started raining, the kidnappers left. This allowed him to make his escape. Press the statement about Lance escaping. He gives more information about how he escaped, and he says he used the underground passageway, because the door was locked. From our earlier investigation, we know the door was not locked. The kidnappers just put a sword in the handle, to make it impossible to open from the outside. Someone from the inside could have easily removed the sword. Present the prop sword at the statement about the locked door. Edgeworth explains that Lance only made it seem like the door was locked, because it was a fake kidnapping. Lang interrupts and asks for a motive. Why would Lance fake his own kidnapping? Present the love letter, which shows that Lance has massive debts. He needed the ransom money to pay off Tender Loan. Lance confesses that he is the third kidnapper. But of course, he doesn't admit to the murder. Instead, he follows what Lauren said earlier, and he claims that the victim tried to kill Lauren, at which point, she killed him in self-defense. Lauren interrupts. She is upset because, according to this series of events, she killed her father. ---- To sum up this cross-examination... Press the statement "I made my escape and ran away from that room as fast as I could." Present the broken prop sword at the statement "The door leading outside was locked tight, so I had to use the underground passageway." Present the love letter. Cross-Examination: Chain of Events ---------------------------------- The Bad Badger was at the stadium, with a gun and the ransom money. The badger aimed his gun at her, and she shot him with the gun she got from Lance. Press the statement about the badger aiming the gun at her. She will clarify with a new statement, which says the gun was in the victim's left hand. Present the Dossier at this statement. The victim was right-handed, not left-handed! Agent Lang interrupts, saying that the Bad Badger HAD to have the gun in his left hand. The costume comes with a fake gun (only capable of firing blanks) tied to the right hand. Therefore, the only hand that the victim could hold the gun in was the left hand. However, the victim was pulling a suitcase, while holding the gun. So...one hand had the real gun, one hand had the fake gun, and one hand had the suitcase? That's just plain confusing. Clearly, there's a mistake here. Edgeworth comes up with a solution: the person was not wearing a Bad Badger costume. He was wearing a Blue Badger costume, with the Bad Badger head on top. After all, we found a Bad Badger head, all by itself. Select "both are correct", then present the Bad Badger head. Select the Proto Badger, and Edgeworth explains his theory in more detail. Lance told Lauren that Oliver Deacon had gone rogue, and he gave her a gun to protect herself. Later, he disguised himself as Oliver Deacon, using the Bad Badger's head. He went to Lauren, scared her, and she shot him in self-defense. It was all a set- up to make her think that she was the killer! Supporting this theory is the fact that Lance is the only left-handed kidnapper. Lang brings up a possible problem. If Lance was shot by Lauren, why is he completely unharmed? Present the model gun at this point. Lance didn't give her a REAL gun; he gave her the fake gun that only shoots blanks. Lauren interrupts at this point. She knows for a fact that the victim went rogue. After all, she saw him tied up at one point. ---- To sum up this cross-examination... Press the statement "But that Badger pointed his gun at me, aiming to shoot me dead!" Present Colin Devorae Dossier at the statement "But that Badger pointed the gun in his left hand at me, aiming to shoot me dead!" Select "Both are correct". Present the Bad Badger's Head. Select the Proto Badger. Present the missing model gun. Cross-Examination: What Ms. Paups Saw ------------------------------------- By the time Lauren returned to the hideout, Lance had already subdued Mr. Deacon and tied him up, in the other room. She saw him. Press the statement about Mr. Deacon being tied up in the other room. That's the room Edgeworth was held hostage in, if you don't remember. She didn't get a close look, but she knows it's Mr. Deacon because he was wearing a Bad Badger head. This is added to her testimony. Press the new statement about the Bad Badger head. Select "raise an objection", the present the Bad Badger head. Lance fooled her into thinking someone else was Mr. Deacon, twice, by using the Bad Badger head. But who was the person who was tied up? That was Miles Edgeworth. Select Edgeworth at this opportunity, and he explains. Edgeworth was tied up in that room, at the time. It was a simple matter for Lance to put a Bad Badger head on Edgeworth's unconscious body. Why did Lance go through all the trouble of tricking Lauren? He wanted her (and everyone else) to think the murder took place at the stadium, long after the murder really took place elsewhere. That way, everyone would think she is the murderer, not him. ---- To sum up this cross-examination... Press the statement "He had tied Mr. Deacon securely to the beam in the room next door." Press the statement "The captive had a Bad Badger's head on, so I'm absolutely sure it was Mr. Deacon". Select "Raise an objection". Present the Bad Badger's Head. Select "Miles Edgeworth". --- Ernest Amano shows up, with new evidence: the murder weapon and the victim's costume. Conveniently, this evidence makes his son look innocent of all charges. Edgeworth decides to examine this evidence. Look at three things: the gun, the bullet hole, and the neck hole. The bullet hole proves the shooting took place at close range. The neck hole has a lot of mirror fragments inside. The gun is, well...a gun. It gets added to evidence. Lance testifies about the new evidence. --- To sum up this bit of the game... Examine the bullet hole. Examine the gun. Examine the neck hole. Cross-Examination: Decisive Evidence ------------------------------------ There are fingerprints on the gun, which prove that Lauren is the killer. But it's not really her fault; she shot him in self-defense. Press the first statement. Edgeworth will object to the fact that Lauren's fingerprints are on the murder weapon. After all, she was wearing a Blue Badger costume at the time of the alleged shooting. Present the stolen costumes to prove this. Lauren talks about the only time she touched the gun with her bare hands, which was at a completely unrelated time. So the fact that her fingerprints are on the gun is just a coincidence. Edgeworth then explains that the scene at the stadium was just a set-up. Edgeworth suspected this for a while, but the bullet hole in the costume proves this, because it shows the murder was at point blank range. Present the victim's costume, then the bullet hole. Edgeworth is challenged to locate the real crime scene. It took place at the Haunted House. Select the haunted house, then present the mirror fragments from the victim's costume to support this idea. We have to go to the Haunted House to investigate, but unfortunately for us, Ernest Amano has just purchased the Haunted House. He refuses to let us investigate there, as it is now his private property. Oh no! ---- To sum up this cross-examination... Press the statement "Make no mistake. There are fingerprints on that murderous gun." Select "Raise an objection". Present the stolen costumes. Present the victim's costume. Select the bullet hole. Select the haunted house. Present the mirror fragments. 5e. The Haunted House --------------------------------------------------------- -- Edgeworth can't investigate the haunted house, the real scene of the crime. However, Kay Faraday still has the Little Thief. She uses it to recreate the crime scene. Edgeworth recaps the situation. A Blue Badger mannequin is at the end of the hallway. Edgeworth entered a room, dropped off the money, then returned to the hallway. At this point, he was attacked by the Blue Badger. Select the green dot that represents the Blue Badger character. The most likely explanation is that the mannequin wasn't a mannequin at all, but a kidnapper in disguise. Lance says it was a Bad Badger character, because he wants everyone to think Mr. Deacon is the one who knocked Edgeworth unconscious. Look at the Bad Badger. Kay has a blank weapon, because she doesn't know what the real weapon is. Well, Edgeworth was hit on the right side of the head, and there's a plausible weapon in the hallway: the sword. Present the broken prop sword here. Select "test with Luminol" as the means for proving the sword is the weapon used to attack Edgeworth. The test is performed, and the blood is on the left-hand side of the sword. Therefore, the attacker hit Edgeworth on the right side of his head with the left side of the sword. Wait...does that make sense? After all, the attacker held the sword in his left hand. It's kind of difficult to hit someone with the left side of a sword, if you're holding it in your left hand. Did the attacker use a backhanded attack or something? Deduce at the left hand of the attacker, and then present the sword. Kay figures that the way to clear up this problem is by switching the weapon from the left hand to the right, but that doesn't work, either. Why? Present the Blue Badger Bible to show that the Bad Badger has a gun in his right hand. So there's a contradiction, no matter which hand held the sword. Lance then speaks up and admits that he is the one who attacked Edgeworth, not Mr. Deacon. Lance used his right hand to attack, in an attempt to frame Mr. Deacon. The hologram is updated, to show that the Proto Badger was the one who attacked Edgeworth. Agent Lang interrupts, telling our heroes about a trick to the Haunted House. It has a disappearing badger trick, where a Blue Badger mannequin disappears. The mannequin at the end of this hallway is just that: a mannequin, not an attacker in disguise. Kay updates the hologram again. Now, we have the problem of trying to figure out where the attacker was hiding, in this hallway. Look at the Blue Badger mannequin. Wait a second...the belt is backwards! Deduce at the belt and present the Blue Badger Bible. The fact that the belt is in reverse is added to Logic. Look at the mirror on the wall, near the Blue Badger. We get Logic about the mirror shards. They don't match the mirror shards found in the victim's costume, oddly enough. Now that we have two pieces of Logic... IT'S LOGIC TIME! Using Logic, connect the two pieces of Logic. Clearly, the mannequin is in reverse, because it's a mirror image. The hallway has a rotating mirror wall! Present the Gatewater Land Pamphlet to explain why it has a rotating mirror wall. It's so they can do the Disappearing Badger trick. Simply rotate the wall, the badger "magically" disappears. Select "move the mirror- wall" to explain this. The mirror-wall trick might seem irrelevant, but it's not. It shows the hiding place of the attacker. The attacker was hiding behind the rotating wall! All right, so that's just about everything. There is only one more thing to point out: where the victim's body was. It was in the far left, in the area that was hidden by the rotating mirror wall. Kay then turns off the hologram. What is the badger that Edgeworth saw, shortly before he was attacked? It was the victim's costume, so present the victim's costume at this juncture. Edgeworth will now put all his conclusions together to make Lance Amano look guilty. Lance eventually confesses. Lance is arrested on the charge of murder, and Ernest Amano is also arrested, on the charge of tampering with evidence. Agent Lang then takes this opportunity to grill Ernest Amano about his connection to the smuggling ring. But then Prosecutor Portsman shows up and takes control of the case. He leaves with Amanos and Buddy Faith. Lang then tries to insult Edgeworth, to no avail. Lang knows there is a corrupt prosecutor in this town, one who works for the smuggling ring and Ernest Amano. Well, it's not Edgeworth, so stop giving Edgeworth a hard time, Agent Lang! After discussions with Shih-na and Lauren Paups, everyone leaves, except for Gumshoe, Kay and Edgeworth. Kay reminds Edgeworth of the first time she met Edgeworth and Gumshoe, seven years ago, in the second KG-8 Incident... --- To summarize this bit of investigation... Select the green dot. Examine the Bad Badger. Present the broken prop sword. Select "Test with Luminol" Deduce at the left hand. Present the broken prop sword. Present the Blue Badger Bible. Examine the Blue Badger. Deduce at the belt. Present the Blue Badger Bible. Examine the mirror on the wall, near the Blue Badger. Using Logic, connect "Blue Badger in reverse" with "Mirror shards". Present the Gatewater Land Pamphlet. Select "Move the mirror-wall". Select the grayed-out area on the left, behind the mirror-wall. Select the same area again, the area on the far left. Present the victim's costume. 6. Turnabout Reminiscence --------------------------------------------------------- -- Edgeworth remembers an episode seven years ago, when he first met Kay Faraday and Detective Gumshoe. Edgeworth was scheduled to be the prosecutor at his very first trial that day... And what a trial it was! Byrne Faraday, the prosecutor, was going up against Calisto Yew, the defense attorney, in the trial of Mack Rell. Mack was caught performing the murder on tape, but Mack says he's not responsible for the crime. He was ordered to the kill the victim...by Byrne Faraday! 6a. A Double Murder --------------------------------------------------------- -- The case begins with Edgeworth in the courthouse. He has been selected to take control of the trial, away from Byrne Faraday. Manfred von Karma steps into the room and talks with Edgeworth. Talk with him about everything to get an overview of the case. The defendant, Mack Rell, was accused of murdering someone named Deid Mann in an embassy. The murder was caught on camera. Rell's defense is that he was ordered to commit the murder. Who ordered him to do it? The Yatagarasu, Byrne Faraday! Here's where things get more complicated. People call this trial "The second KG-8 Incident". Three years ago, there was a case called the KG-8 Incident. This was back when Colin Devorae was arrested on smuggling charges. A woman named Cece Yew was going to testify against him, but she was killed shortly before she was supposed to appear in court. The suspect in Yew's murder was Manny Coachen, who works at the embassy. Coachen was found innocent of all charges, because the evidence against him disappeared shortly before the trial. You can see how Edgeworth's current trial and the KG-8 incident are related. They both had Byrne Faraday as the leading prosecutor, and they both involve someone getting killed shortly before he or she appeared in court to testify against the smuggling ring. The difference between the two cases is that the Yatagarasu is somehow mixed up in the current trial. The Yatagarasu visited the embassy, which is the scene of the murder, on the very day the murder occurred. That's most likely not a coincidence. Young Kay Faraday shows up and trades Edgeworth a lot of coins for a dollar bill. Then, the trial begins! Edgeworth and Manfred appear in court, but the defense lawyer doesn't. Byrne Faraday also fails to appear, even though he's scheduled to give the videotape of the murder to Edgeworth, so it can be used as evidence in the trial. Detective Gumshoe runs in, saying that both Byrne Faraday and Mack Rell have been killed in Defendant Lobby #2. Edgeworth goes the hallway that leads to the defendant lobby. He meets the defense attorney, the lead detective on the case, and Detective Gumshoe. Talk to all three of the characters about everything. Gumshoe says that he was recently made a detective. He was assigned to guard the hallway, during the time of the murder. Gumshoe swears he didn't hear anything the whole time, until the murderous gunshot. The woman in blue is Calisto Yew, the defense attorney. She has a bad habit of laughing uncontrollably, especially at Edgeworth's uppity manners. She doesn't have much to say. Talk to Detective Badd, who is the main detective on the case. He is Detective Gumshoe's boss, and he was going to be a witness in the trial, due to his knowledge of the Yatagarasu. Badd tells Edgeworth about the double murder. Faraday was stabbed to death, and he was found with a gun in his hand. The other victim, Mack Rell, was shot and killed, and he was found with a bloody knife in his hand. Apparently, Faraday shot Mack Rell around the same time that Mack Rell stabbed Faraday. Manny Coachen, the suspect from the first KG-8 Incident, then appears to talk with Calisto Yew. The two of them leave to talk. Manfred von Karma appears. He puts Edgeworth and his daughter Franziska in charge of the investigation. Detective Badd is not happy to have two children in charge of the investigation, but he lets them in. Franziska, of course, thinks she is better than Edgeworth, so she expects to solve the murder mystery before he does. --- To get through this bit of investigation... Talk to Manfred von Karma about everything. Talk to Detective Gumshoe about everything. Talk to Calisto Yew about everything. Talk to Detective Badd about everything. --- The investigation begins after some discussion. Badd tells Edgeworth about the murder weapons, which came from Faraday's bag of evidence. No one is sure where the knife came from, because he didn't declare the knife as a piece of evidence. The current theory is that Faraday attacked Rell first. You might as well begin the investigation by looking at everything you can, then looking at the corpses. The three things you need to look at are the television, the window near the television, and the table at the bottom of the screen. When you look at the window, Edgeworth notes that it is open. There are also bars on the window. He adds this to Logic. When you look at the table at the bottom of the screen, Edgeworth notes that it is very clean and tidy. That's pretty odd, considering that the plastic bags on the table were scattered on the floor during Faraday and Rell's struggle. The suspiciously clean table is added to Logic. When you examine the television, you learn that the volume on it has been turned up all the way. Examine the corpses, so you can see them in more detail. There are four things you need to examine here: the gun, the knife, the plastic bag with blood on it, and Faraday's ink-stained hand. When you examine the knife, Edgeworth adds it to evidence. When you examine the gun, Edgeworth adds it to evidence. When you examine the bloody bag, it gets added to Logic. Why are there empty evidence bags strewn around the ground, and why is one covered in blood? Does it show that the two victims were fighting? When you examine Faraday's ink-stained hand, you learn that the ink stain is, well, made from ink. This is added to Logic. Once you examine the four things--the gun, the knife, the bloody bag and Faraday's ink-stained hand--the two bodies get turned over. Now, you can look at three new things: Faraday's pocket and the two fatal wounds. When you look at Mr. Rell's chest wound, Edgeworth notes that there are no burn marks on his clothes. Ergo, he was shot from a distance of a yard or two. When you look at Faraday's wound, Edgeworth sends someone to check that the knife in Rell's hand is the murder weapon. When you examine Faraday's pocket, you find a fountain pen inside. This is added to Logic. LOGIC TIME! Connect the ink stain with the pen, and Edgeworth deduces that the pen made the ink stain on Faraday's hand. Well, if the stain is on his left hand, he must be left-handed. Also in logic, connect the neat and tidy table with the plastic bags. Edgeworth makes special note of the bloody bag. The lab guy investigates it, and it turns out the blood is Mr. Faraday's. The bag is added to evidence. Edgeworth figures out a contradiction in the scene. Deduce at Faraday's right hand, the one with the gun in it. Then, present the fountain pen. If he's left-handed, why did he fire a gun with his right hand? Investigation complete. The autopsy report comes in. Then, Franziska speaks up, saying she's solved the entire case. Edgeworth decides to cross-examine her explanation. --- To summarize this bit of examination... Examine the window. Examine the television. Examine the table. Examine the dead bodies. Examine the gun. Examine the knife. Examine the plastic bag with blood on it. Examine Faraday's ink-stained hand. Examine Faraday's wound. Examine Rell's wound. Examine Faraday's pocket. Using Logic, connect "Ink stain" with "Fountain pen in pocket". Using Logic, connect "Neat and tidy table" with "Plastic bags strewn about". Deduce at Faraday's hand, which is holding the gun. Cross-Examination: What Happened -------------------------------- Faraday died instantly. Rell survived for a few seconds, during which he stole the knife from Faraday and stabbed the man. Press the third statement to get a new piece of testimony, about the violent struggle between the two men. At this statement, present Gumshoe's testimony, which says he heard nothing at all. Why didn't their struggle make any noise? An alternate course of events is offered. What if there was no struggle? Maybe Rell instigated the incident by taking the knife from Faraday's bag. Is that likely? Select "Yes, something is off." The new scenario is unlikely, because Faraday had to have attacked first. Prove this by presenting the crime scene notes. These show that Faraday died instantly, so he couldn't have counterattacked Rell. Franziska reinforces her original theory. Rell was attacked first. He counterattacked, and killed Faraday instantly. He died shortly afterwards. There's still something wrong with this scenario. Select "the order the bodies fell". Rell clearly died before Faraday, as his body is under Faraday's. Franziska bounces back quickly, though, and she comes up with a new explanation. --- To summarize this bit of cross-examination... Press the statement "And Mr. Rell, while on the brink of death, stole Mr. Faraday's knife and stabbed him." Present Detective Gumshoe's Testimony at the statement "They struggled, and Mr. Rell used the last of his strength to counterattack Mr. Faraday." Select "Yes, something is off." Present the crime scene notes. Select "The order the bodies fell". Cross-Examination: What Happened, Pt. 2 --------------------------------------- The order the bodies fell in was complete chance. They attacked each other near-simultaneously, after all. Which body ended up on the bottom doesn't matter. Well, that's a short testimony. Press the statement that says they attacked each other at the same time to get a new piece of testimony. The new testimony says they were at close range when they attacked each other. Present the handgun at this statement. The gun shows that Rell was a yard or two away from Faraday, when Rell was shot. Alternately, present the crime scene notes at this statement. Edgeworth is then challenged to say who attacked first. Select "neither man". We've got contradictions, no matter who attacked first. Therefore, it seems likely that a third person killed both men, and that person fabricated the crime scene to make it look like they attacked each other. Edgeworth needs evidence to back this up, though. Present either the handgun or the plastic bag. The bags indicate someone else was here, because they were scattered on the ground to make it look like there was a struggle. The gun indicates someone else was here, because it was fired from a distance, yet both men could not have been very far from each other when they died. --- To summarize this bit of cross-examination... Press the statement "...which indicates that they attacked each other at the same time." Present the handgun or the crime scene notes at the statement "That fact indicates that they attacked each other at the same time from close range." Select "Neither man". Present the plastic bag or the handgun. --- Calisto Yew appears with the Judge. She has a new suspect: Detective Gumshoe. He must be the third person, who committed the murder! To back up her theory, she has the testimony of the Judge, who looked down the hallway during the recess, but he did not see Detective Gumshoe. Edgeworth asks Gumshoe a question. Ask about his motive. He claims he had none, but Yew disagrees. She gives testimony about this. --- To get through this piece of investigation... Select "Motive for the murders". Cross-Examination: Gumshoe's Motive ----------------------------------- About a week ago, there was a public scene between Gumshoe and Faraday. Faraday yelled at Gumshoe and cut his salary. The contradiction in this testimony is the fact that it ignores the motive for killing Mr. Rell. Go to the statement about the explanation being perfect, then raise an objection. Select "motive for killing Mr. Rell". Yew admits she doesn't know this motive, nor does she know anyone with a motive to kill both men. She gives more testimony. --- To get through this bit of cross-examination... Press the statement "Well? How's that for the 'perfect explanation?'". Select "Raise an objection". Select "Motive for killing Mr. Rell". Cross-Examination: Motive to Kill the Men ----------------------------------------- The murderer wanted to kill one of the men. He or she then killed the other man, because he was a witness. No one wanted to kill both men. Go to the statement which says no one has a motive to kill both men. Present the KG-8 Incident overview, which shows Manny Coachen, for one, has a reason to kill both men. Coachen would have killed Rell in revenge for Rell killing Coachen's co-worker. Coachen would have killed Faraday, in revenge for prosecuting Coachen three years ago. Coachen has an alibi for the time of the murder, though, so he is instantly cleared. It looks like Gumshoe is still the lead suspect, so he is taken for interrogation. Everyone leaves, except Edgeworth and Calisto Yew. Talk to her about the KG-8 Incident. She pretends to know nothing about it. Present the KG-8 Incident overview, then select "through the victim". The victim is Cece Yew, and Calisto is Calisto Yew? Coincidence? Calisto admits that Cece is her sister. Yew is still upset about how the KG-8 trial happened. She agreed to be Mr. Rell's lawyer, in hopes of learning new information about her sister's death, but she hasn't had any luck. Edgeworth can also talk to Calisto about Manny Coachen. Coachen definitely killed her sister in the original incident, but he was found innocent because the smuggling ring stole the evidence right before the trial. When Coachen talked to Calisto earlier, he taunted her inability to prove anything. She slapped him when he did this. The conversation between the two lawyers ends shortly after. --- To get through this bit of cross-examination... Present the KG-8 Incident Overview at the statement "There's no one out there with a motive to kill both Mr. Faraday and Mr. Rell." Talk to Yew about the KG-8 Incident. Present the KG-8 Incident overview. Select "through the victim". Talk to Yew about everything. 6b. Gumshoe in the Hallway --------------------------------------------------------- -- The case picks up again with Franziska and Edgeworth talking to Manfred von Karma. Manfred wants to go home, because the trial is never going to happen, due to the death of the defendant. It looks like Edgeworth will have to wait a bit before his first trial. Franziska convinces her father to let Edgeworth and her keep investigating. Manfred then leaves. The first order of business is to talk to the characters related to the case. Gumshoe is busy right now, so talk to Calisto Yew. There are four conversation topics, and you must go through them all. When you talk about Detective Badd, Calisto reveals that he was the detective on the original KG-8 Incident. Badd was the one who was guarding Cece Yew at the time of Yew's death. Calisto is still kind of bitter about Badd's failure. When you talk about the time of the murder, Calisto says that she was with Badd in the other Defendant Lobby at the time. She was planning on talking with Mack Rell, but a furious Faraday grabbed Rell and dragged him into the other room. When you talk about Mack Rell, Calisto reveals that she knew he was the real murderer, and that he was not the Yatagarasu. Edgeworth and Franziska are disgusted that Yew would knowingly defend a guilty man. Yew claims she only did it to get more information about KG-8 and her sister's death. Yew makes a point of saying that she was NOT intending on getting Rell an innocent verdict. When you talk about the Yatagarasu, Calisto says that a lot of companies hire her to protect them from the Yatagarasu. Once you talk to Calisto about all four things, you can talk to Detective Gumshoe. You can talk to him about three things: his motive, what happened during the recess, and the next step. The motive, if you remember, is that Faraday yelled at Gumshoe. Gumshoe reveals that he went to the wrong office on his first day as a detective, which is why Faraday yelled at him. When you talk about the recess, Gumshoe claims that he was guarding the hallway the whole time. He did this, because Detective Badd ordered him to. When you talk to Gumshoe about the next step, Franziska finds Gumshoe's annual bonus envelope. Gumshoe's bonus was five dollars, and he cashed it today. The guards come to take Gumshoe away for questioning, but Edgeworth has one last thing to talk to Gumshoe about: his testimony. Present Gumshoe's testimony to Gumshoe. Gumshoe confirms that he heard no sound at all from his guard post in the hallway, and that no one entered the hallway at all. Kay Faraday shows up and kicks Edgeworth. As she runs away, she drops a Swiss roll. Go through the exit on the left to reach the hallway that Gumshoe was guarding. --- To get through this bit of investigation... Talk to Yew about everything. Talk to Gumshoe about everything. Present Detective Gumshoe's testimony to Gumshoe. --- Edgeworth is going to investigate the hallway where Gumshoe was standing guard. The door on the left leads to the scene of the murder, and the door on the right leads to the room where Calisto Yew was speaking with Detective Badd. We won't enter any of these rooms during the hallway investigation. The Judge is here. Talk to him about the time of the murder. He says that he went to the men's restroom during the recess. You can see the men's restroom through the window at the end of the hallway. When the Judge entered the restroom, he looked through the window and saw Gumshoe in the hallway, buying something from a vending machine. When the Judge left the restroom, he looked through the window...but Gumshoe wasn't anywhere in sight! The Judge didn't think anything of this at the time, until he heard about the murders. The fact that Gumshoe disappeared at one point when he was on guard duty seems quite relevant to the case, especially if Gumshoe is the main suspect. Talk to Detective Badd about everything. When you talk to him about Gumshoe, he talks about how he told Gumshoe to stand guard. Badd confirms that he was talking with Yew at the time of the murder. When you talk to Badd about the gunshot, he says that he and Yew clearly heard the gunshot. They ran into the hallway, he grabbed Gumshoe, and they went into the Defendant Lobby where the two bodies were. This happened in less than a minute. Edgeworth wonders if there is anything else to talk about. Select "time he heard the gunshot" to get official testimony from Badd. It happened shortly before the trial was set to resume. Examine the orange vending machine to get some Logic about the vending machines. The Logic basically says that the vending machines are in the hallway. Then, go the window that the Judge looked through, the window on the left side of the hallway. In the window, you must look at the plant, the pink scrap, the handprint on the bench and the pile of dirt on the floor. Look at the plant to determine that it is a cactus with sharp needles. This is added to Logic. Look at the pink thing to determine it is made of rubber. This is added to Logic. Edgeworth thinks the pink thing is somehow...familiar. Using Logic, connect the cactus to the pink thing. The pink this is actually the balloon that Kay Faraday had. It was popped by the cactus. Look at the pile of dirt to learn that the ants here are eating the leftover remains of a Swiss roll. This is added to Logic. Look at the handprint on the bench to learn that it belongs to Detective Gumshoe. He made this handprint when he sat down on the bench to eat a Swiss roll. This is added to evidence. Using Logic, connect the remains of the Swiss roll to the vending machine. Edgeworth concludes that the Swiss roll came from the vending machine, so let's take a closer look at the vending machine in question. Go to the orange vending machine. Do you see a contradiction here? Edgeworth does. Deduce at the price of the Swiss rolls, then present Gumshoe's bonus check. The Swiss rolls are six dollars, and Gumshoe only had five dollars that day. How did he afford a Swiss roll? Investigation complete. Edgeworth now knows what happened in the hallway, and it doesn't agree with what the Judge said earlier. Edgeworth and Franziska then go to see the Judge, in order to correct His Honor's testimony. --- To sum up this bit of investigation... Talk to the Judge about the time of the murder. Talk to Badd about Detective Gumshoe. Talk to Badd about the gunshot. Select "Time he heard the gunshot". Examine the orange vending machine. Go to the window on the far left. Look at the plant. Look at the pink scrap. Look at the handprint on the bench. Look at the pile of dirt on the ground. Using Logic, connect "Pink piece of trash" with "Windowsill cactus". Using Logic, connect "Swiss roll crumbs" with "Vending machine". Examine the orange vending machine. Deduce at the price of the Swiss rolls. Present Gumshoe's annual bonus. Cross-Examination: What I Saw at Recess --------------------------------------- The Judge went to the restroom, where he could see the hallway. The first time he looked in the hallway, Gumshoe bought something from a vending machine. The second time he looked, Gumshoe was gone. It's pretty suspicious that Gumshoe disappeared when he was supposed to be on duty. Edgeworth's goal here is to show how Gumshoe "disappeared". Gumshoe didn't really leave the hallway; he just sat down on the bench under the window to eat his newly-purchased Swiss roll. The Judge didn't see Gumshoe, because Gumshoe was seated. To prove this, present Gumshoe's fingerprints at the statement about Gumshoe disappearing. The bench is a blind spot from the Judge's viewpoint, so pretty much anyone sitting on the bench would have been out of view. The Judge demands that he be allowed to testify again. --- To sum up this bit of cross-examination... Present Detective Gumshoe's Fingerprints at the statement "But when I was about to exit the restroom, he had completely disappeared!" Cross-Examination: What I Saw, Pt. 2 ------------------------------------ Someone can sit on the bench and disappear from view. This doesn't mean Gumshoe was on the bench at the time in question! In any case, the most important thing here is that Judge heard the gunshot around the time he looked out the window. Woah, the Judge heard a gunshot? He should have mentioned this much earlier! In any case, the problem with this testimony is when it happened. Press the second statement, which says Gumshoe was not necessarily sitting down at the time the Judge looked through the window. The Judge will clarify when this occurred. It was about twenty minutes before the trial was set to resume, and this is added to the testimony. Detective Badd said that the gunshot was immediately before the trial resumed. Present Badd's testimony at the Judge's statement about when the gunshot occurred. The Judge is shocked, but he insists that he heard a loud bang. Edgeworth can explain that. It was the popping of Kay Faraday's balloon. Present the balloon scrap to prove this. The Judge is sad that his testimony has been disproven, and he regrets that he falsely accused Gumshoe. However, Gumshoe isn't cleared of all charges yet. We still have a question or two to ask him, such as, "How did he afford a $6 Swiss roll with only $5?" Gumshoe is brought in to testify. --- To sum up this bit of cross-examination... Press the statement "However, that doesn't mean that the Detective was sitting there when I looked!" Present Detective Badd's testimony at the statement "Let's see...I looked into that hallway about 20 minutes before we were to reconvene." Present the balloon piece. Cross-Examination: While I Was on Duty -------------------------------------- Gumshoe was summoned to the courthouse by Detective Badd. He was told to guard the hallway, and specifically, he was told to guard the door to the room where the murder took place. Gumshoe was in the hallway the whole time, up until the gunshot. Press the third statement, the one about Gumshoe being in the hall the whole time. Gumshoe clarifies his statement and says he did not move away from the door to Lobby Number Two. This is easy to disprove. Present the fingerprints at the new statement. Gumshoe moved away from the door when he bought a Swiss roll and when he sat down to eat it! Gumshoe confesses that he bought a Swiss roll. He just didn't want to say it, because he thought he'd be in trouble for eating on the job. Edgeworth brings up the fact that the Swiss rolls are too expensive for Gumshoe to buy on his own. Someone else was in the hallway, and that person helped him buy a Swiss roll. Present the Swiss roll that Kay Faraday dropped in order to prove this. --- To sum up this bit of cross-examination... Press the statement "From that time on, until I heard the gunshot, I was in that hallway the whole time!" Present Detective Gumshoe's Fingerprints or the Swiss roll at the statement "And until I heard the gunshot, I didn't take a single step away from the Lobby No. 2 door." Present the Swiss roll. --- Kay Faraday then appears. She is mad because Edgeworth has been mean to Gumshoe. Calm her down by giving her a Swiss roll. Kay is happy to get the Swiss roll, but she is upset that her father was killed. She blows her nose on Edgeworth's cravat. Talk to Kay about her father. She says that she has a promise notebook, made of promises to her father that she always keeps. Talk to Kay about Detective Gumshoe and the Swiss rolls to confirm what we've figured out. She and Gumshoe bought a pack of Swiss rolls together. Gumshoe lied about the hallway, in order to protect Kay. Why would he go through such trouble to protect a little girl? Present the promise notebook. One of the promises is "never take things from a stranger", which Kay did when she accepted a Swiss roll from Gumshoe. So...Gumshoe was lying, at the expense of his job, to keep his promise to a little girl. Calisto Yew appears with an objection. In her eyes, Edgeworth has proven that the only two people who were in the hallway during the recess were Gumshoe and Kay. Therefore, Gumshoe is still the most likely murder suspect. Edgeworth and Franziska decide to investigate the only place that hasn't been investigated, the other defendant lobby that the hallway connects to. --- To sum up this bit of investigation... Present the Swiss roll to Kay. Talk to Kay about everything. Present the promise notebook. 6c. Figuring Things Out --------------------------------------------------------- -- Edgeworth and Franziska go to the only place they haven't been yet: Defendant Lobby #1. As soon as Edgeworth walks in, he notices the overpowering smell in the room. He also listens to Kay Faraday talking to Detective Badd. Badd is much nicer to her than he is to Edgeworth and Franziska. Our heroes are not actually going to investigate this room. Instead, all they're going to do is talk with Detective Badd. Talk to Detective Badd about everything. He says that the overpowering smell in the room is the perfume that Calisto Yew wears. She spilled a bottle of it when she was in here earlier, talking with Badd. He opened the window, but it didn't help. When you ask Detective Badd about the recess, he confirms what he said earlier. He made the call to the station to get Detective Gumshoe to the courthouse, then ordered Gumshoe to guard the hallway. Immediately after this, Calisto Yew pulled Badd into Lobby Number One, and they talked until they heard the gunshot. Edgeworth concludes the conversation by goading Detective Badd into talking about the KG-8 Incident, which becomes a new conversation topic. When you talk about the KG-8 Incident, Badd says that he and Faraday were working together to bring down the smuggling ring. Their efforts were going to come to fruition at the trial of Ernest Amano's secretary, Colin Devorae. Colin made a fake confession about being part of the smuggling ring, even though he was innocent. Badd is pretty sure that Ernest was behind the fake confession. Faraday and Badd were going to use this opportunity to bring in Cece Yew, to have her testify about the REAL smuggling ring. But then she was killed by Manny Coachen. He was found innocent at his trial, which happened later, because the main piece of evidence was stolen. In the aftermath of that trial, he met Calisto Yew. Talk to Bad about his relation to Yew. Badd and Faraday met her on the day that Coachen was declared innocent due to lack of evidence. Calisto was understandably upset with them. Calisto is also going after the smuggling ring, to avenge her sister's death. She's run into Badd and Faraday a few times, on the trail of the smuggling ring. However, nobody has yet been able to catch the leader of the ring. Talk to Badd about his relation to Faraday. They are a prosecutor and detective team, sort of like Edgeworth and Gumshoe. Their biggest case is the Yatagarasu case, even though the Yatagarasu hasn't been caught yet. Badd was supposed to testify in court today about the Yatagarasu. Talk to Badd about the Yatagarasu. Edgeworth thinks that Yatagarasu might be involved, because both of the murder victims in this case were, at one time or another, accused to being the Yatagarasu. Badd explains why the Yatagarasu is never caught. First, he always knows the location of the target object. Second, he knows how to get past the security. Third, he never leaves evidence behind. In this case, the Yatagarasu sent some evidence to the police. The evidence is the Yatagarasu's Key, and they know it's from the real Yatagarasu, because it came with the thief's special calling card. Edgeworth and Franziska are summoned to the courtroom, to examine the evidence that Faraday was going to use in the trial. Go to the Prosecutor's bench, which is the one on the left, and examine the evidence. There are four pieces of evidence: a gun, a knife, an organizer and a folder. Examine all four of them. The envelope contains documents about the trial that was supposed to take place. Edgeworth recaps the case for Franziska, and he specifically brings up the best piece of evidence: a videotape of Rell committing the murder. This video was shown in court, and the sound of the gunshot was crystal clear. The gun is a definitive piece of evidence, because it was the murder weapon, and Rell had the gun when he was arrested. The organizer contains Faraday's plans for winning the trial. He planned on using the videotape, as well as the gun. Faraday also had some evidence called the Yatagarasu's Key, which proves that Rell is not the real Yatagarasu. A picture of the Yatagarasu's Key is inside the organizer. Edgeworth figures this is important. After all, the Yatagarasu mailed it to the police. Examine the organizer before examining the knife, and Edgeworth will note that the knife was not mentioned in the organizer. In the same way, we have a piece of evidence that was mentioned in the organizer which is NOT here: The Yatagarasu's Key. Present the Yatagarasu's Key. The knife and the key have the same handle. Edgeworth suggests that the knife and the key are one and the same. He examines the knife in more detail. Press the button on the bottom of the knife handle. It turns into a key. Press the button again, and it turns into a knife. The key can turn into a knife! That's odd. It's starting to look like the Yatagarasu is the murderer, because nobody besides the Yatagarasu knew that the key could be turned into a knife. Edgeworth notes that some evidence is missing, namely, the videotape that was shown in court, the one with the loud gunshot recorded on it. The Judge has no idea where it is. Maybe it's still in the TV in Defendant Lobby Number Two? Edgeworth returns to the scene of the crime, where he sees Detective Badd talking with Shi-Long Lang. As usual, Agent Lang is a jerk to Edgeworth. Lang leaves almost immediately, and our heroes talk to Detective Badd for a bit. Talk to Detective Badd about the time of the murder. He refuses to help. Show him the Yatagarasu's Key by presenting it to him. He is shocked by the fact that the key can turn into a knife. Badd confirms that nobody knew about this trick, and he confirms that he has been looking for the key. You can talk to Badd about the time of the murder again. Do so, and he will give you testimony. --- To get through this piece of investigation... Talk to Badd about everything. Examine the evidence on the bench on the left. Examine the folder. Examine the gun. Examine the organizer. Examine the knife. Present the Yatagarasu's Key. Examine the bottom of the knife handle. Talk to Detective Badd about the time of the murder. Present the Yatagarasu's Key to Badd. Talk to Badd about the time of the murder. Cross-Examination: Det. Badd's Movements ---------------------------------------- He was with Yew in the other defendant lobby. They spoke about trivial things. The gunshot sounded right before the trial, and Yew and Badd ran to the hallway. They grabbed Gumshoe and went to the room where the bodies were found. Press the third statement, the one about the gunshot. Badd confirms that he didn't hear any other sounds during the recess. This is added to the testimony. At the statement which says Badd didn't hear anything, present the balloon piece. Why didn't he hear the balloon pop? After all, the Judge heard it, and he was in the next building. Badd is completely unfazed at the flaw in his testimony. He explains that the defendant lobbies are soundproof, which is why he didn't hear the balloon pop. Well, jeez! Why didn't anyone mention this before? The fact that the rooms are soundproof casts a whole new light upon Gumshoe's Testimony, which says he didn't hear a struggle in the room. Are we going to have to revise the deductions we made, based off that testimony? Edgeworth notes an interesting contradiction. If the rooms are soundproof, how did Badd hear the gunshot? It looks like we'll have to investigate again, but first, it's LOGIC TIME! We have four pieces of Logic. First, the window at the crime scene is open. Second, the window at the room next door was opened, to get rid of the smell of Yew's perfume. Third, the TV is very loud. Fourth, the videotape that was used in the trial, the tape with a very loud gunshot on it, is nowhere to be found. Connect the two pieces of logic about the windows. Edgeworth concludes that only non-physical things, like sounds and smells, can get through the iron bars on the windows. This is added to Logic. Connect the open windows to the loud TV. We know that non-physical things, like sounds, can be heard through the windows. The windows in this room were open, as well as the windows in the room next door. The open windows is what allowed the sound of the gunshot to be heard. Connect the missing evidence to the gunshot. We know that the tape used in court has a loud gunshot on it. Could it be that the loud gunshot on the loud TV is the gunshot that everyone heard? --- To get through this cross-examination... Press the statement "...I heard the gunshot...right before the trial was about to reconvene." Present the balloon piece at the statement "...I didn't hear any other strange sounds...until that gunshot..." Using Logic, connect "Lobby No. 2 window" with "Dissipating the smell". Using Logic, connect "Open windows" with "Very loud television". Using Logic, connect "Missing evidence" with "Gunshot could be heard". --- A short investigation begins. Look at the videotape player (under the TV) to confirm that, yes, the missing videotape is in here. The tape played all the way to the end, then stopped. The gunshot is about thirty minutes into the tape. Edgeworth then is challenged to explain the gunshot, specifically, what the gunshot was and what it was heard through. It was heard through the window so deduce at the window. The gunshot that was heard was the one on the tape, so present the surveillance videotape. Edgeworth explains his conclusion that the gunshot everyone heard was the one on the tape, and not the gunshot from the actual murder. Why did the killer do this? Select "when the crime took place". Through this trick, the killer made sure that everyone heard the gunshot, about thirty minutes after the time of the crime. This allowed the killer ample time to create an alibi. The investigation ends, and a police officer comes in. He says that Calisto Yew has figured out who the real killer is, and she wants some clarification from Edgeworth. Our heroes go to the courtroom to meet her. --- To get through this investigation... Examine the VCR. Deduce at the window. Present the surveillance video. Select "when the crime took place". 6d. Confronting the Killer --------------------------------------------------------- -- Our heroes all go to the courtroom, where Calisto Yew is ready to explain who the killer is. She has received statements from everyone, and she is now completely sure the Gumshoe is the killer, because everyone else has an alibi for the time of the crime. Ah, but we just found out that the crime really took place thirty minutes earlier! Calisto doesn't know that, yet. This is Edgeworth's trump card. Calisto and Edgeworth decide to have a mini-trial, seeing as they're in court. Detective Badd will act as Judge, and Franziska will be the peanut gallery...er, the co- council. Cross-Examination: Ms. Yew's Argument ------------------------------------- Everyone has an alibi for when the gun went off, except Gumshoe. All the locations were investigated, and Yew made sure there is no way to enter the crime scene except through the hallway. The conclusion is that Gumshoe is guilty. Calisto's testimony is rock solid, with no flaws anywhere. Press every statement to end the cross- examination. Edgeworth then reveals his trump card, the fact that the murder really took place thirty minutes before the trial was set to reconvene. Calisto Yew did not collect people's alibis during that moment in time. Present the surveillance video, to show where the gunshot sound came from. Select "the window was open" as to how the sound was heard, even though the rooms are soundproof. It's time to decide who the killer is. The killer is the person who opened the windows, to make sure the gunshots were heard. That person is Calisto Yew, so select her. Edgeworth formally indicts Calisto of being the killer. Of course, Calisto has a response to this accusation. --- To get through this bit of cross-examination... Press every statement. Present the surveillance video. Select "the window was open". Select Calisto Yew. Cross-Examination: Ms. Yew's Rebuttal ------------------------------------- The window was open, but how can you prove that Calisto opened it? Further, can you prove the tape was used? Accusing people without proof, on the basis of faulty logic, is quite shocking. Calisto wants proof, and we have it. At the statement about the open window, the first statement, present the bottle of perfume. She "accidentally" spilled the smelly perfume, in order to ensure that Detective Badd would open the window, so he could hear the gunshot. Yew is surprised that she is being accused of murder, just because she spilled perfume. She then gives her final testimony. --- To get through this bit of cross-examination... Present Ms. Yew's perfume at the statement "You argue that the window was opened, however, do you have proof it was I who did that?". Cross-Examination: Why It Couldn't Be Me ---------------------------------------- Accusing someone of murder because she spilled perfume is a bit over the top. Calisto couldn't have been the killer, because she doesn't know anything about the knife or where it came from. Press the third statement, the one about the knife. Edgeworth says the knife came from the evidence bag belonging to Mr. Faraday. Yew disagrees, because there was no knife in the bag. There was only a key. This statement is added to evidence. Present the Yatagarasu's Key at the statement about the key, and Edgeworth shows Calisto that the key turns into a knife. She feigns surprise and ignorance. Edgeworth says that there is only one person who knew about the knife to key trick ahead of time, and that person is the real murderer. This person would be the one who sent the key to the police ahead of time, the Yatagarasu. Select the Yatagarasu. Edgeworth formally accuses Calisto Yew of being the Yatagarasu, as well as the killer. Calisto Yew then confesses. She admits that she is the Yatagarasu and the killer. She also says that Calisto Yew is not her real name. She fills in a few holes in our story by describing why and how she killed Faraday and Rell, in some detail. She further admits that she's a member of the smuggling ring, and she ordered Mack Rell to commit murder, in order to protect the ring. Calisto then pulls out a gun and fires it at Edgeworth, before escaping. Fortunately, no one is hurt by the gun, but Calisto gets away, nonetheless. The case wraps up on a happy note, as Gumshoe is officially declared innocent. Detective Badd hopes that Gumshoe will become a real detective someday. The Judge apologizes to Gumshoe, and Gumshoe thanks Edgeworth for proving his innocence. Make Gumshoe happy by presenting the Swiss roll to him. He eats it with great joy and salutes Edgeworth. Thus begins the somewhat troublesome relationship between Gumshoe and Edgeworth. The game skips ahead seven years, to the end of Case Three, with Kay Faraday, Detective Gumshoe and Miles Edgeworth at Gatewater Land. Kay has come back because she found some evidence which proves that her father was the real Yatagarasu, namely, the Little Thief device. Kay also returned, because the embassy received a calling card from the Yatagarasu. Kay figures this came from Calisto Yew, the fake Yatagarasu, who has never been captured. Edgeworth agrees he will help Kay capture Calisto Yew, in the embassy. The story then continues in the next case. --- To get through this bit of cross-examination... Press the statement "After all, I don't even know where the knife that was used to kill him came from." Present Yatagarasu's Key at the statement "There was a key in his evidence bag, but you can't kill anyone with a simple key!" Select the Yatagarasu. Present the Swiss roll. 7. Turnabout Aflame --------------------------------------------------------- -- The case a short, dramatic introduction as Edgeworth talks about two countries, and a building goes up in flame. Somehow, Kay Faraday and the Yatagarasu are involved. Uh oh! 7a. Fire in Babahl --------------------------------------------------------- -- Edgeworth is having a nice cup of tea, and he is thinking about the past four cases, when Kay Faraday shows up. Kay is eager to find Calisto Yew, the fake Yatagarasu. The fake Yatagarasu sent a calling card to an embassy, saying he or she will be there that night. The card is the wrong color, but this is the best lead we have right now, so Edgeworth decides to go to the embassy with Kay. At the embassy, Edgeworth and Kay go to see a play, starring the Steel Samurai. Fun! The play is being sponsored by Allebahst, while Babahl is sponsoring a Jammin' Ninja play. Kay is a little confused at this point, so Edgeworth explains. There once was a country called Cohdopia. The country split in half, forming two countries: Allebahst and Babahl. Allebahst owns the left side of the embassy, and Babahl owns the right side. In the middle, between the two countries, is the neutral territory, called the Theatrum Neutralis. This is where our heroes are right now. You can now explore the Theatrum Neutralis. There are a lot of characters here, but you don't need to talk to any of them. Instead, what you need to do is look at the table on the left, next to the man in green. This table has some pamphlets about the embassy. Edgeworth picks on up and adds it to evidence. Suddenly, the Steel Samurai appears. Oh, cool! Of course, Edgeworth wants to get an autograph, so go to the Steel Samurai and talk to him. Something about this Steel Samurai rubs Edgeworth the wrong way, but he gives Edgeworth an autograph, anyway. The Steel Samurai then leaves to go to Allebahst. Edgeworth and Kay go see the Jammin' Ninja play. Once they get out, Edgeworth decides they should go home, because the Yatagarasu isn't at the embassy. Just then, guards run up, talking about the Yatagarasu being sighted in Allebahst. Kay tries to get into Allebahst, but she isn't allowed past the guard. Instead, she goes to Babahl. Edgeworth chases after Kay. By the time he reaches Babahl, he sees a large fire. And by the time he catches up with Kay, she is being arrested by Agent Shih-na on suspicion of murder. It appears someone was killed in the room where the fire took place. Kay says she chased someone into this room, where she found the dead body. Detective Gumshoe wants Edgeworth to investigate and prove Kay's innocence, but sadly, Edgeworth cannot. That's because they are in the Babahlese Embassy, which is considered a territory of the country of Babahl. Edgeworth has jurisdiction to investigate in the United States of America, but he doesn't have jurisdiction to investigate in Babahl. Only Shih-na has jurisdiction like that, because she is an international agent. Before Kay gets arrested, another international agent appears: Franziska von Karma. Franziska has the Babahlese ambassador with her. Edgeworth asks the ambassador for permission to investigate the crime scene, as Franziska's assistant. The ambassador agrees. --- To summarize this bit of investigation... Examine the table. Talk to the Steel Samurai. --- The investigation begins. You've got quite a few things you can investigate, and you can do them in pretty much any order, with a few exceptions. I prefer to talk to Franziska first, because you can finish with her part of the investigation right off the bat. When you first talk to Franziska, you get some logic about her being back here in the United States. Talk to her about the murder to learn more about what she has been doing at the embassy. It seems that she was with Agent Lang in Allebahst before she came here to Babahl. Talk to her about the Yatagarasu to start a conversation about Kay Faraday. Gumshoe inadvertently gives Edgeworth some new information: the Yatagarasu's calling card said he would steal the embassy's dirtiest secret. Edgeworth adds this to logic. We got two pieces of logic from talking to Franziska: one that says she is here on top secret business, and one that says the Yatagarasu wants to steal top secret information. Are the two related? Yes! Connect the two ideas in Logic to get a new conversation with Franziska. Talk to Franziska about smuggling. She came here with Interpol, in pursuit of the smuggling ring, thanks to an accounting document they found. It seems that the smuggling ring's leader was in Babahl or Allebahst. Franziska is looking for the rest of the document on the smuggling ring. We'll come back to that at the end of the investigation. Once Franziska is done, I like to look at the various things in the room. Examine the golden statue, the Primidux Statue, to make sure that it exists. It will become important later on in this case. Examine the butterfly that is painted on the wall. Butterflies are the national symbol of Babahl, and flowers are the national symbol of Allebahst. This is useful information, so it's added to logic. Finally, examine the knife rack behind the Primidux statue. It's a special set of knives. Three are in Allebahst, and three are in Babahl. You can tell which knives belong to which country, because each knife has the national symbol on it. One of the knives is missing right now, and Edgeworth notes that the knives have removable handles. Now it's time to examine the corpse. It appears that Manny Coachen was stabbed with a knife. A knife, huh? Let's take a closer look. When you examine the knife, Gumshoe notices the butterfly handle. This is added to logic. Now which country is the one that has a butterfly as its national symbol again? Open up logic, and connect the butterfly national symbol to the butterfly handle. Edgeworth concludes that the knife came from Babahl. That makes perfect sense, seeing as there's a knife missing from Babahl's display case. There's just one tiny problem: why isn't there any blood on the knife handle? After all, there's a lot of blood on the knife. We'll get back to that later. For now, return to examining the victim's body. In his pocket is the Yatagarasu's key, from Case Four. What is THAT doing here? Didn't Calisto Yew steal that seven years ago? Press the button at the handle of the key, to show Gumshoe how the key/knife works. Edgeworth takes a closer look at the knife, and he notes its fancy design. Since the key was stolen from Cohdopia seven years ago, odds are that it is a Cohdopian design. Franziska recommends that Edgeworth talk to Ambassador Palaeno about Cohdopia. This starts a new conversation sequence; you can't talk to Palaeno about Cohdopia unless you examine the Yatagarasu's key first. Talk to Ambassador Palaeno now. He doesn't really have much to say at this point. Talk to him about Cohdopia, and he looks at the Yatagarasu's key. He thinks the key was probably used back when Allebahst and Cohdopia were both one country. However, he wasn't an ambassador then, so he doesn't know for certain. The fact that the Yatagarasu's Key was used seven years ago gets added to Logic. Examine the safe to find that it's locked. This is also added to logic. Using logic, connect the locked safe to the key. Edgeworth uses the key on the safe, and the safe opens. LOGIC! Nothing is inside the safe except some papers. Look at them and the way they're placed. Edgeworth figures that the safe has a second compartment somewhere, but where? Edgeworth is challenged to find the keyhole to the second compartment. Deduce at the keyhole on the left side of the safe, and present the only key-like evidence you have: the Yatagarasu's Key. Franziska is skeptical that the Yatagarasu's key opens the second compartment. Examine the tip of the knife blade, and Edgeworth angles the knife so it fits into the keyhole. This opens the second compartment. Aha! In the second compartment, we have stolen pieces of artwork. The victim was involved in illegal activities. Take a closer look at the pieces of paper. Do they look familiar? They're the documents that Franziska was looking for! Deduce at the pieces of paper, then present the document made of Cohdopian paper. Franziska reads these pieces of paper, and she concludes that the victim was the head of the smuggling ring. Investigation complete. --- To summarize this investigation... Examine the corpse. Examine the knife used to kill the victim. Examine the key in the victim's pocket. Examine the gold statue. Examine the knife rack. Examine the butterfly painted on the wall. Examine the locked safe. Talk to Franziska about everything. Talk to Ambassador Palaeno about everything. Using logic, connect "Franziska's return" with "Stealing of secret" Using logic, connect "Motif of knife handle" with "Butterfly of Babahl" Using Logic, connect "Key used at Embassy" with "Locked safe" Examine the paper. Pick "It has two compartments" Deduce at the black keyhole on the left side of the safe. Present the Yatagarasu's Key Examine the tip of the knife blade. Deduce at the papers. Present the Cohdopian Paper Document --- Shih-na is ready to arrest Kay Faraday, while Edgeworth is ready to prove her innocence. Cross-Examination: Why Arrest Kay? ---------------------------------- The Yatagarasu used the fire as a distraction to sneak into the embassy. Kay Faraday claims she is the Yatagarasu. No one besides Kay was found in the room with the body. Edgeworth, Kay and Shih-na discuss the Yatagarasu for a moment. That's your clue to press the statement about the Yatagarasu. When you do so, Shih-na connects a motive to the Yatagarasu: stealing the Yatagarasu's Key and the smuggling ring documents. But...no one stole the Yatagarasu's Key or the smuggling ring documents. Therefore, stealing them was not the murderer's real motive. At the statement about the murderer's motive, present either the key or the documents. Edgeworth then makes Kay look innocent by destroying the testimony about her motive. Shih-na doesn't give up, though. The motive might not fit, but Kay was still found at the scene of the crime, holding a knife. --- To summarize this cross-examination.... Press the statement "Futhermore, this girl claims to be the Yatagarasu." Present the Yatagarasu's Key or the Cohdopian paper at the statement "She wanted to steal documents regarding smuggling, so she killed Mr. Coachen for the key." Cross-Examination: Definitive Evidence -------------------------------------- The knife at the scene of the crime is the murder weapon. The knife has a butterfly handle, and it comes from the unique set in this room. Kay defends herself, saying she was chasing someone in black, who disappeared as soon as she entered the room. That sounds REALLY unlikely, Kay. In any case, most of the testimony is about the knife, so we'll probably present the knife as evidence. What was the problem we had earlier with the knife? The fact that the knife's handle has no blood on it. Present the knife at the statement about the handle. Then, remove the knife's handle. With these actions, Edgeworth proves that the knife's handle was removed after the murder. But why? Take a closer look at the knife. Near the bottom of the knife, in the area that was covered by the handle, you can see a special design: a flower. AHA! So this knife comes from Allebahst, the country whose symbol is the flower! Someone put the Babahl handle on the knife, in an attempt to fool us into thinking the knife came from this room. Present the embassy guide to Shih-na to show her the information about the Allebahst symbol. She agrees that the knife came from Allebahst, and since Kay has never been there, Kay must be innocent. Shih-na is still suspicious of Kay Faraday, because Kay repeatedly says that she's the Great Thief Yatagarasu. Apparently, Kay doesn't know that it's not really smart to expose yourself as a thief in front of police officers. In any case, it's off to Allebahst, to follow the lead about the knife which is the murder weapon! --- To summarize this cross-examination... Present the knife at the statement "The knife with the butterfly handle is the murder weapon, which the killer was holding." Examine the knife handle. Examine the flower design. Present the embassy guide. 7b. Murder in Allebahst --------------------------------------------------------- -- Our heroes go to Allebahst, and in the Theatrum Neutralis, they meet up with Agent Lang. Agent Lang denies them access to Allebahst, due to the country's strict policies. Ambassador Quercus Alba, from Allebahst, appears and asks if there is a problem. He is reluctant to let our heroes investigate, until Ambassador Colias Palaeno tells Quercus about Manny Coachen's murder. Quercus then allows Edgeworth and Franziska to investigate. Gumshoe and Kay have to stay behind in Babahl, though. Edgeworth has a brief period of time where he can talk to people before entering Allebahst. He wants to talk to Franziska and Palaeno. When you talk to Palaeno, he gives you some Babahlese Ink. It's a special kind of ink that doesn't get exported for some reason. When you talk to Franziska, she explains that Babahlese Ink can be used to make very good counterfeit bills. Manny Coachen was smuggling this ink out of Babahl, and he was in charge of all of Babahl's printing needs. That makes him Suspect #1 for the head of the smuggling operation, especially considering those documents found hidden in his safe. The only problem with Franziska's investigation is that she still hasn't found any counterfeit plates, bills, or Babahlese ink. Since they weren't found in Babahl, she hopes to find them in Allebahst. Our heroes then go to Allebahst, where Edgeworth meets the Steel Samurai. It turns out that the Steel Samurai is Edgeworth's friend, Larry Butz. Larry has a knack for getting into trouble, and he's in big trouble now: he's the suspect in a murder case. Wait, a second murder? Detective Badd comes in and explains that Larry was missing during the official ceremony he was supposed to attend. He was found trying to go through the chimney of the Ambassador's Room. And the second murder victim was killed in the Ambassador's Room, during the official ceremony. Wow. Larry has the worst luck sometimes. --- To summarize this bit of investigation... Talk to Franziska. Talk to Palaeno. Talk to Detective Badd about everything. --- Edgeworth's investigation begins in earnest. It looks like Edgeworth is going to have to prove Larry's innocence, while still trying to find some sort of clue which will solve the murder in Babahl. You can look at the things in the room in any order, but for the sake of organizing this guide, I'll discuss all the investigation work, then the conversation work. There are several things in the room that you need to look at. First, examine the flowers in the windowsill on the right. They are passionflowers. Edgeworth jots this information down in his organizer, so they can help him solve a puzzle much later on in the case. Then, check the photograph on the desk against the back wall. It's a picture of Larry shaking hands with Ambassador Alba. Does something about the photograph strike you as odd? Examine the Primidux statue. It's facing a different direction than it was facing in when the picture was taken. Deduce at the statue, then present the photograph as evidence. Edgeworth will then write down that the statue was moved at the time of the crime (or at least, sometime after the photograph was taken). Now, take a look at the knives on the knife rack. Edgeworth discovers that one is missing, and the murder weapon from Babahl fits perfectly into the knife handle. It looks like the murder weapon from Babahl DID come here, after all! While you're looking at the knives, take a look at the Samurai Spear on the wall. Looks kind of broken, doesn't it? If you examine it, Larry will talk a bit about the spear. He lies and says it is perfectly fine. Deduce at the tip of the spear, then present the Steel Samurai autograph. Edgeworth will then use this evidence to prove to Larry that the spear is NOT fine. Larry confesses that he accidentally broke the spear prop, and the spear is added to evidence. Finally, you want to examine the dead body. There are three things on the body that you want to examine. First, examine the victim's head to learn who the victim is. Then, examine the note in the victim's hand. This gives us a piece of evidence which makes it look like the victim was trying to steal the Primidux Statue. Finally, examine the murder weapon, which is the Samurai Sword. --- So, to summarize this bit of investigation... Examine the passionflowers in the windowsill. Examine the photograph on the desk against the wall. Deduce at the Primidux Statue and present the photograph. Examine the knives in the knife rack. Deduce at the tip of the Samurai Spear and present the autograph. Examine the corpse. Examine the Samurai Sword. Examine the note in the victim's hand. Examine the victim's face. --- Now the investigation is over, and the interrogation can begin. You'll want to talk to Larry about everything, and you'll want to talk to the Pink Princess, who enters once the investigation is done. When you talk to Larry, he explains that he became the Steel Samurai, in an attempt to catch the eye of Mindy, the cute girl who plays the Pink Princess. Typical Larry... Larry says he was found on the chimney, because he was pretending to be Santa Claus. He's lying at this point, to cover up for the REAL reason why he was on the roof, climbing down a chimney. Edgeworth will reveal Larry's true motive for being on the roof during the first round of cross-examination. When you talk to Larry about the murder weapon, he says that he accidentally left the sword in the room when posing for the photo in the photograph. Talk to the Pink Princess now to learn that she is...OH NO! It's WENDY OLDBAG! You know, the old lady who is obsessed with Edgeworth? Between her and Larry, Edgeworth definitely has his hands full with this case! Talk to Mrs. Oldbag about her job as the Pink Princess. It seems she's just a fill-in for Mindy, the girl who usually has the job. (Mindy has a bad cold.) Mrs. Oldbag's stand-in request gets added to evidence. Mrs. Oldbag isn't happy with her job as the Pink Princess, because it hurt her hip, and she got a letter from a stalker. The letter from a stalker gets added to evidence. When you talk to Mrs. Oldbag about the time of the murder, she says that she was by the fireplace, warming her leg. This information about the fireplace is added to evidence. Once you talk to Mrs. Oldbag about everything, a police officer comes in with Missile, the police dog from the first Phoenix Wright game. He's not as cool as Missile from Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective, but he's good enough! Missile uses his power of smell to find a Samurai Dog and a lady's undershirt from the fireplace. Edgeworth doesn't want to talk about the lady's undershirt, but he doesn't really have a choice. Present it to Mrs. Oldbag. She will say it is hers, and that she was warming it up by the fire. Talk to her about the Samurai Dogs, and she gives you a box of them. You now have three things in Logic. Time to connect them. Connect the used fireplace with smoke from the chimney. Edgeworth will deduce that the fireplace in this room and the fireplace in Mrs. Oldbag's room share a chimney. That's why the smoke from Mrs. Oldbag's fire exited through the chimney to this room. The shared chimney is added to Logic. Using Logic, connect the shared chimney with the undershirt. The shirt came from Mrs. Oldbag's fireplace, and the two fireplaces share a chimney. Could it be that the two fireplaces are connected? Edgeworth and Franziska investigate. Sure enough, the two fireplaces are connected. All you have to do is turn the back of one fireplace to reach the other fireplace. Conceivably, you can crawl through one fireplace to reach the other, but that didn't happen during this murder. Investigation complete. --- To sum up this part of the investigation... Talk to Larry about everything. Talk to the Pink Princess about everything. Present the undershirt to Wendy Oldbag. Talk to Wendy Oldbag about Samurai Dogs. Using Logic, connect the fireplace and the chimney. Using Logic, connect the undershirt with the shared chimney. --- The investigation is complete, and Edgeworth is ready to prove Larry innocent. But first, of course, he needs to clear up whatever it is that Larry is hiding. Edgeworth decides the best way to do this is by cross-examining Larry. Larry gives his testimony, but he pretty much admits that he's lying in his testimony to cover up an embarrassing secret. Oh, Larry... Cross-Examination: Up on the Rooftop ------------------------------------ Larry says that after the show, he came to the embassy for a photo shoot. Then he wandered around and saw the chimney. He decided he would pretend to be Santa Claus. The point in the testimony that is incredibly ridiculous is the part about Santa Claus. Go to the statement about Larry wanting to play Santa, and press it. When prompted, raise an objection. Edgeworth brings up a good point. Santa brings presents to good boys and girls. Who was Larry hoping to bring a present to? Obviously, Larry was hoping to bring a present to Wendy Oldbag. The chimney leads to her room, after all. It was just unfortunate luck on Larry's part that the chimney also leads to the Ambassador's room. Edgeworth will clarify Larry's motive. Larry was really hoping to see Mindy, the girl who usually plays the Pink Princess. He didn't know that Mindy was replaced by Wendy Oldbag that day. Present the Stand-In Request to show Lang that Mindy was unexpectedly replaced by Wendy. Larry, however, is getting used to being cross-examined, thanks to his past experiences with Edgeworth and Phoenix Wright. Larry thinks it will be amusing to test out his lawyer skills with another cross-examination. --- To sum up this bit of cross-examination... Press the statement "So then, I wanted to play Santa and decided to give it a try." Choose "Raise an objection" Choose Wendy Oldbag Present the Stand-In Request Cross-Examination: Larry's Assertion ------------------------------------ Larry admits that he dressed up like Santa, but he uses the excuse that it was hard to see, what with the smoke coming from the chimney. The whole thing was just a case of mistaken identity. After all, why would he humiliate himself like that? Wendy Oldbag interrupts and accuses Larry of being her stalker. Larry then says he is completely innocent, and Edgeworth cannot prove he wanted to meet Mrs. Oldbag. But, of course, Edgeworth CAN prove this. After all, he has the stalker letter that Larry wrote. Go to the last statement, and present the letter from a stalker. It talks about "descending from above", which sounds a lot like "entering the room through a chimney". Larry denies that he wrote the letter. Edgeworth says he can prove it. What part of the letter shows that Larry wanted to meet Mindy? Highlight the "I" in Mindy. As you can see, due to Larry's incredibly bad penmanship, "Mindy" can be mistaken for "Wendy". Larry changes his tune, and he says that the letter is a fake. He thinks someone besides himself wrote it. Nice try, Larry! Edgeworth has a sample of your handwriting! Present the Steel Samurai Autograph. The handwriting on the autograph matches the handwriting in the stalker's letter; therefore, they were written by the same person: Larry. Larry then confesses that he wrote the letter to Mindy. He wasn't allowed to go through the door, so he thought he'd go through the chimney. These two cross-examinations have proven one thing: Larry is an idiot. I mean, they prove that Larry is not the murderer! He did not purposefully enter the Ambassador's Room, hoping to kill someone. He accidentally entered the Ambassador's Room, while hoping to meet Mindy. Larry's motives have now been made clear. However, Agent Lang still thinks that Larry is guilty, no matter what Larry's motives were. After all, the murder weapon belongs to Larry, which is very strong evidence. Agent Lang testifies to this. --- To sum up this bit of cross-examination... Present Letter from a Stalker at the statement "But why would I ever put myself through so much humiliation on purpose!?" Highlight the "i" in "Mindy". Present the Steel Samurai's Autograph Cross-Examination: Why Larry? ----------------------------- Lang was the first to find the body. The bloody murder weapon was next to the body. The weapon was supposed to be in Larry's room, but it wasn't. Also, Larry himself was at the scene. Edgeworth is pretty confident about how to disprove the fact that the murder weapon is the Samurai Sword. He tries to talk about this with Lang, but Lang gets off- topic and accuses Edgeworth of fabricating evidence. Lang apparently thinks prosecutors are just a bunch of evidence-fabricators. The rebuttal begins. Go to the second statement and press it. Lang will clarify his statement, saying that the Samurai Sword was used as a bludgeon. Go to the statement about the sword being used to beat the victim to death. At this statement, present the Samurai Spear. Earlier, we learned that the spear is a hollow prop, not a real weapon. The Samurai Sword is the same way. Therefore, it couldn't have been the murder weapon. Edgeworth and Franziska argue a bit about the nature of a prosecutor, when Lang gets them back on track. He agrees that the sword is an unlikely murder weapon, but it's the only thing in the room with blood on it. There IS no other possible murder weapon! ...Or IS there? --- To sum up this bit of cross-examination... Press the second statement (about the Samurai Sword). At the third statement (about beating the victim to death), present the Samurai Spear. Cross-Examination: Why Larry? Pt. 2 ----------------------------------- The sword COULD be the murder weapon. In fact, that's the only logical conclusion. No other murder weapon or blood was found in the room, and the inspectors looked everywhere. Press the statement about the inspectors searching the Embassy top to bottom. This is a lie. They didn't look at EVERYTHING. The one thing they forgot to look at was the Primidux Statue. This is because only an Ambassador or the Ambassador's secretariat is allowed to touch the Primidux Statue. So, when prompted, raise an objection and pick the Primidux Statue. Edgeworth will tell Lang that the statue has gone uninvestigated. Further, the picture we saw earlier proves that the statue was moved tonight. Maybe it was moved, when it was used as a bludgeon to commit murder. Lang requests permission to examine the statue from Ambassador Alba. This request is denied, but Lang decides to examine it anyway. At this point, examine the base of the statue to find a pretty solid handprint. Edgeworth is worried that it is Larry's handprint, but it actually belongs to Manny Coachen, the victim of the murder in Babahl. That clears Larry of all wrongdoing, which is good, but this just raises more questions. Did Manny Coachen commit the murder in Allebahst? Is that why he was killed in Babahl? At this point, Edgeworth decides to leave Allebahst to return to Babahl. Hopefully, Detective Gumshoe and Kay Faraday have unearthed some new clues to help solve the murder mystery in Babahl. --- To sum up this bit of cross-examination... Press the statement "We searched the Embassy, top to bottom, but the victim's blood is only on that weapon." Select "Raise an objection" Present Allebahst's Primidux Statue. Examine the base of the statue. 7c. Figuring Things Out --------------------------------------------------------- -- Edgeworth returns in Babahl, where Kay and Gumshoe have found a lot of clues. Just kidding! They were goofing off the whole time, and they didn't find anything. ...Typical. Talk to Gumshoe about the investigation. The only useful piece of information he has, before he gets distracted and argues with Kay, is that there is a special lantern in Babahl. It's a silhouette lantern that projects shadows on walls, and the lantern glows green, because its fuel is the same material as the special Babahlese ink. Talk to Ambassador Palaeno for some information. He will tell you about the speech in Allebahst, and the importance of the Primidux Statue. It's a symbol of the right to sovereignty, which is why both countries want to claim it as their own. Present Allebahst's Primidux Statue to Ambassador Palaeno. He reveals that the two statues were going to be examined today, to see which one is a fake. This examination was unnecessary, because Palaeno knows that Babahl's statue is the fake one. But because the two statues were switched around the time of the murder, Babahl now has the REAL statue in its possession. That's a stroke of luck for them! Once the conversations are over, Edgeworth decides to go to Allebahst, where the Yatagarasu was first sighted. Kay Faraday gives him a guitar pick and Ms. Yew's perfume to help him with his investigation. Hooray for random pieces of evidence which won't come in handy until later! Now, go down to the Theatrum Neutralis, and left to Allebahst. Edgeworth arrives in the Rose Garden. --- To summarize this bit of investigation... Talk to Detective Gumshoe about everything. Talk to Ambassador Palaeno about everything. Present Allebahst's Primidux Statue of Ambassador Palaeno. --- Franziska von Karma shows up and teams up with Edgeworth. Together, the two of them should be able to solve the mystery of the Yatagarasu's appearance in this rose garden. And believe it or not, the two of them solve the mystery rather quickly. The rather quick investigation begins. You only have to do four things here. First, look at both statues. Then, examine the pool. Finally, talk to Agent Lang about the Yatagarasu's appearance. That's it! The two statues are a pair, and they are on opposite sides of the garden. One is of a queen, and the other is of a king. When you look at the pool, Edgeworth learns that the pool is not just there for decoration. It is sometimes used to put out fires. When this happens, the pool automatically refills until it reaches its normal level. Since there was a fire in Babahl tonight, this happened sometime recently. Larry Butz then appears in the pool, saying he is on the lookout for the Iron Infant (the child of Steel Samurai Daddy). Larry thinks the doll prop may have fallen into the pool at some point. When you talk to Agent Lang, he is upset because his men in black haven't solved the mystery of the Yatagarasu's appearance. Talk to him about the appearance to learn that nobody actually SAW the Yatagarasu. They just saw a silhouette/shadow that looks like the Yatagarasu. A panic ensued and the lights went out. It sounds to Edgeworth and Franziska like the shadow was just a trick of the light. Edgeworth decides to recreate the trick using something in the garden. What does he want to use? The two statues in the garden. Highlight both statues in turn. The king statue looks fine, but the queen statue doesn't. We need a specific shape to finish the shadow. What shape is that? The left hand of the queen statue. Highlight that, and Edgeworth puts the two shadows together, thus recreating the shadow of the Yatagarasu. Okay, so it's obvious now that the Yatagarasu wasn't in Allebahst. That was just a trick of the light, set up by someone to cause a panic. This person is, most likely, a secret accomplice of the Yatagarasu. The investigation ends here. --- To summarize this bit of investigation... Examine both statues. Examine the pool. Talk to Lang about the Yatagarasu's appearance. Highlight both statues. Highlight the left hand of the queen statue. --- Detective Badd shows up to give an odd piece of evidence to Edgeworth: a photo of the Yatagarasu, flying from Babahl to Allebahst. It looks rather blurry to me, but no matter. It's a photo, it raises a number of questions, and we'll deal with that later. For now, Edgeworth wants to go back to Babahl and investigate there. Leave the Rose Garden, go through the neutral theater lobby, and go through the open air stage to reach Ambassador Palaeno's office. Edgeworth meets up with Kay in the office. Kay and Edgeworth then detail the various things they need to do. 1. Compare the state of the room before and after the fire. 2. Find the mysterious person in black who Kay saw. 3. Discover how the Yatagarasu's Key is related to the murder. 4. Figure out the truth behind the photo of the flying Yatagarasu. That's asking an awful lot from our investigators, but I'm sure Edgeworth and Kay are up to the task. First of all, however, our heroes will investigate Manny Coachen's desk and talk with Ambassador Palaeno. Only after that do they start the first goal, "compare the state of the room before and after the fire". Go to Manny Coachen's desk, which is in the lower/left. You may remember that this area was closed off by the police in the earlier investigation. Now, you are free to investigate it. There's a bottle of ink on the desk. Ambassador Palaeno seems surprised by the ink. This will open up a conversation with the Ambassador about the ink. Open the drawer of the desk. The notepad looks familiar, doesn't it? Deduce at the notepad, then present the note belonging to DeMasque II. Edgeworth concludes that DeMasque's note came from this notepad. In other words, it looks like Manny Coachen wrote the note, telling DeMasque II to steal the Primidux Statue. This opens up a conversation with the Ambassador about the note. Go to Ambassador Palaeno and talk to him about everything. There are four conversations: what he did this morning, what he did this afternoon, what he thinks about Manny Coachen's bottle of ink, and what he thinks about the note that Manny wrote. When you first talk to Palaeno, he talks about a second fire. Apparently, there was a fire on the top two floors, around the time of the Jammin' Ninja's show. That happened long before the fire that Edgeworth saw, which is the fire that took place in this office. The mysterious picture of the flying Yatagarasu was taken after the first fire. When you ask Palaeno what he did this morning, he discusses his schedule. Mostly, he made a huge mess in the fireplace and forgot to clean it. This is added to evidence. When you ask what he did this afternoon, he talks about his preparation for a photo shoot with the Jammin' Ninja. Due to the fires, this photo shoot was cancelled. When you ask about the bottle of ink, Palaeno says that he saw the fire in this room, briefly. There were bright green flames in front of the door. Only things made with Babahlese Ink burn green flames, so naturally, Palaeno thought the ink had caught fire. But since the ink is perfectly safe, that means something ELSE made with Babahlese Ink caused the green flames in this room. When you ask about the note that Manny wrote, Palaeno recaps a little bit. Both Babahl and Allebahst have a Primidux Statue. Babahl's is the fake statue. The statues were going to be examined by a professional, so Manny Coachen paid Mask DeMasque II to swap the statues. The statues got swapped successfully, but DeMasque was killed in the process. Once you finish talking to Ambassador Palaeno, Detective Gumshoe comes in with a lot of information about the room. Kay inputs this information into her Little Thief, and the room gets transformed into the way it was during the fire. There are only two things you need to investigate in the recreated crime scene: the fire and the clock. The clock is on the right, and it was moved sometime. Some wire is found inside the clock, so presumably, the clock was moved when someone put the wire inside. Examine the fire. Edgeworth will make some deductions. First, you want to present the silhouette lantern, which makes green flames. Why does it make green flames? Present the Babahlese Ink, which also makes green flames when burned. Clearly, the green flames in this room were made when something made of Babahlese Ink was burned. But what was burned? It's not the ink, because that was found on the desk. It is instead the counterfeit bills, circulating in Zheng Fa. Present the counterfeit bills here. Edgeworth will conclude that Manny Coachen burned the bills, presumably to cover up his tracks as a smuggler. This is added to the organizer. Talk to Detective Gumshoe now. When you talk to him about the time of the fire, he gives you more information about the fire in general, and the Yatagarasu. When you talk to him about what he saw, he tells you that Agent Shih-Na was in the room next to this one, at the time of the murder. That's how she was able to enter the room so quickly, to arrest Kay. Once you talk to Detective Gumshoe, investigate the green flames and investigate the grandfather clock, a conversation with Ambassador Palaeno ensues. Edgeworth asks about the construction of this room, which is oddly similar to the room of Ambassador Alba. Palaeno explains that the two rooms are bilaterally symmetrical, which means that they are pretty much identical, mirror images of each other. This is added to Logic. LOGIC TIME! Connect "Connected fireplaces" with "Bilateral symmetry". If the two rooms are mirror images of each other, it stands to logic that the fireplace in this room is ALSO a revolving fireplace. Edgeworth goes to examine the fireplace, but before he tests the revolving wall, he notices a contradiction which supports his hypothesis that this fireplace has a revolving way. Namely, Edgeworth notices that there is a lack of ashes in this fireplace. Deduce at the pile of wood and present Ambassador Palaeno's testimony that the fireplace was very dirty, and it has not been cleaned. This is added to Logic. LOGIC TIME! Connect the missing ashes with the revolving fireplace. The reason there are no ashes in the fireplace is because someone turned the revolving wall around. Who did this? Why, the mysterious person in black that Kay Faraday was chasing, of course! MORE LOGIC! Connect the revolving fireplace with Shih-na. If someone used the fireplace, they ended up next door. Next door is where Shih-na was. Why didn't she see the culprit? Investigation complete. Edgeworth gives Gumshoe a twofold mission. First, Gumshoe needs to do a handwriting analysis on the note found in DeMasque's hand. We need to know if Manny Coachen really wrote that note. Second, Gumshoe needs to see if it's possible for someone to get through the revolving fireplace. Gumshoe fits through the fireplace, but he gets his clothes all dirty as a result. Instead of standing around and waiting for Gumshoe to get the handwriting analysis done, Edgeworth and Kay decide to visit the Theatrum Neutralis and talk with Agent Shih-na. --- To summarize this bit of investigation... Examine Manny Coachen's desk. Open his desk drawer. Deduce at the notepad, and present the note for DeMasque II. Examine Manny Coachen's desk again. Examine the bottle of ink. Talk to Ambassador Palaeno about everything. Examine the grandfather clock. Examine the green flames. Present the silhouette lantern. Present the Babahlese ink. Present the counterfeit bills. Talk to Gumshoe about everything. Using Logic, connect "Connected fireplaces" with "Bilateral symmetry". Deduce at the wood in the fireplace. Present Ambassador Palaeno's testimony. Using Logic, connect "Missing ashes" with "Revolving fireplace used?". Using Logic, connect "Shih-na's location" with "Escaped through revolving fireplace". 7d. Confronting a Culprit --------------------------------------------------------- -- Edgeworth and Kay go to the Theatrum Neutralis, where Ambassador Alba, Franziska von Karma, Agent Lang and Shih-na are talking. Lang is upset that the case seems to have come to an end, and everyone decides to go home. HOLD IT! Gumshoe comes in with the handwriting analysis on the note. Now we know for certain that it was written by Manny Coachen. Good work, Detective Gumshoe. Edgeworth attempts to launch an offensive attack against Agent Shih-na, but of course, Agent Lang doesn't want Edgeworth to attack his partner. So before Edgeworth can ask Shih-na questions about the murder, it looks like Edgeworth will have to deal with Lang. Edgeworth and Lang discuss the case in general. Edgeworth gives a nice overview of the moments leading to Kay's arrest, complete with a map. Kay chased the Yatagarasu into the room, and she turned on the lights. The Yatagarasu was gone! Where did the Yatagarasu go? Lang figures that that Yatagarasu left through the door. That's not possible because of... Present Agent Shih-na's picture at this point. She was in the next room, and arrived on the scene in seconds. If the Yatagarasu had tried to escape through the hallway, Shih-na would have seen him or her. Not to mention, Detective Gumshoe was also in the hallway, on the other side. He would have seen the Yatagarasu, too. But since nobody saw the Yatagarasu in the hallway, it's safe to say the Yatagarasu didn't escape through the door. Lang laughs and predicts Edgeworth's argument: if the Yatagarasu didn't escape through the door, he escaped through the window. This isn't possible, either, because people can't fly. Why else is it impossible? Present the photo of the Yatagarasu, which was taken about two hours BEFORE the Yatagarasu was chased by Kay Faraday. By that fact alone, we know it's not a photo of the Yatagarasu escaping Kay Faraday by flying out a window. Agent Lang gets upset now. He wants to know HOW the Yatagarasu escaped the room. Edgeworth uses this opportunity to ask for Agent Shih-na's testimony. She was the lead investigator in the Babahl case, and she knows more about it than Lang does. Lang is loath to let Edgeworth interrogate Shih-na, but she assures Lang that it's okay. The cross-examination then begins. --- To get through this discussion... Present Agent Shih-Na. Present the photo of the Yatagarasu. Cross-Examination: Shih-na's Movements -------------------------------------- She helped put out the first fire. During the second fire, she was looking for the Yatagarasu. Shih-na was in the next room. She didn't see the Fake Yatagarasu, and indeed, she thinks Kay made up the Yatagarasu story, just to cast suspicion away from her. That's a nice testimony from Shih-na, and we will discredit it by bringing out the big piece of evidence: the revolving fireplace wall. First though, Agents Lang and Shih-na are forced to eat a slice of humble pie, and they apologize to Edgeworth and Kay. Once that's over, the cross-examination begins. Go to the fourth statement, the one about Shih-na being in the next room. At this statement, present the revolving fireplace wall. Edgeworth then explains about the wall, and he suggests that the Yatagarasu used it as an escape route. In one fell swoop, he shows how the Yatagarasu escaped, and he accuses Shih-na of being the Fake Yatagarasu (and the murder). Shih-na then starts laughing, just like Calisto Yew. So Agent Shih-na is Calisto Yew, in disguise. That's how Calisto Yew is related to this case. The first thing Shih-na does, in response to the accusation, is ask for proof about this revolving fireplace wall. Fortunately, we have this proof. Present Ambassador Palaeno's testimony, which shows the fireplace wall exists, and it was definitely moved today. Alternately, you can present the fireplace wall at this juncture. Shih-na then starts laughing at this evidence, and when she calms back down, she decides to finish things with a final piece of testimony. --- So, to summarize this bit of cross-examination... Present the revolving fireplace wall at the statement "Although I was in the next room, I was unable to catch a glimpse of the Yatagarasu." Present Ambassador Palaeno's testimony. Cross-Examination: Shih-na's Rebuttal ------------------------------------- Edgeworth proved that that rotating fireplace wall was used, but he didn't prove who used it. Keep in mind, her people already did a perfect investigation of the room, and they found nothing suspicious, so it is unlikely any evidence exists. This cross-examination is actually really easy. She says there was nothing suspicious inside the room, right? Present the wire at this statement. The investigators didn't find the wire inside this room, so the wire PROVES that the investigation overlooked something. Alternately, present the counterfeit bills. These also prove that the investigation overlooked something. Actually, the investigation overlooked something really big. Select the room next door, the one Shih-na was in. Nobody investigated that room! And seeing as how the Fake Yatagarasu escaped to that room, I'd say it's majorly suspicious. Detective Gumshoe runs to the room and finds three pieces of evidence: a coat, some makeup, and shoes. All three things belong to Shih-na. Thanks to our experiment earlier, we know it's impossible for someone to have gone through the fireplace wall without getting their coat covered in ashes and Babahlese Ink, so make sure to inspect the coat. Sure enough, the coat is very dirty. Shih-na tries to explain this away, by saying they come from the fire. She challenges Edgeworth to show that the stains on the coat are from the fireplace. Present the Babahlese Ink, which is what made the stain on the coat. Shih-na challenges Edgeworth to prove that the stain comes from Babahlese Ink. Select "Burn the coat". A piece of the coat is cut off and burned. Sure enough, it burns green, because it's made out of Babahlese Ink. Edgeworth then accuses Shih-na of being Calisto Yew. Once again, she demands that he prove this. Select Ms. Yew's Perfume. He requests a fingerprint analysis be run, immediately, but there is no need. Shih-na confesses that she is really Calisto Yew. Yew then baits Kay Faraday by bad-mouthing Byrne Faraday. Kay takes the bait and runs at Yew. Yew then pulls out a gun and holds her hostage. Kay and Yew talk for a bit about the Yatagarasu. From their comments, Edgeworth is able to figure out who the Yatagarasu is. Was the Yatagarasu Calisto Yew? Byrne Faraday? Or neither of them? Select "neither person". They were BOTH part of the Yatagarasu. And the third member of the Yatagarasu? That would be Detective Badd, who comes into the room with a gun, trained on Yew. Suddenly, Detective Badd fires, at the same moment Agent Lang jumps in to disarm Calisto Yew. Lang is hit in the leg, but Kay gets away safe, and Calisto Yew is arrested. They find a knife on Yew's person. Present the Babahlese knife handle, and it turns out that handle matches the knife perfectly, thus further confirming our earlier theories about the knife and knife handles being switched. Before leaving, Calisto has two things to say to Edgeworth. 1. The situation in Babahl was an elaborate plot to frame Kay Faraday, so Yew could take the Little Thief. 2. Yew didn't kill Manny Coachen. So it appears that the smuggling ring's leader is still out there somewhere, alive and well. That person is the real murderer. Detective Badd, who is now retired, speaks with Edgeworth some more about the Yatagarasu. They formed their group to take down the smuggling ring, but right when they were about to figure out who rang the smuggling ring, Byrne Faraday was killed. However, Badd has two pieces of evidence which should help prove who the smuggling ring leader's is. First, there is a Trump Card, taken from the time Manny Coachen was ordered to kill Cece Yew. Second, there is a video tape from this same case. Thanks to the events of the third case of this game, the videotape was finally recovered, after it went missing during the trial. Gumshoe then has the sad duty of arresting Detective Badd, and this section of the game ends. --- So, to summarize this bit of cross-examination... Present the wire at the statement "...and we found not a single suspicious thing in Mr. Coachen's office." Select the room with Shih-na inside. Select the coat. Present the Babahlese Ink. Select "Burn the coat". Present Ms. Yew's perfume. Select "neither person". Present the Babahlese knife handle. 7e. The Head of the Smuggling Ring --------------------------------------------------------- -- Whew! That last section had a lot of drama in it! Let's calm down a bit after that, and investigate the videotape that Detective Badd gave us. The videotape shows Manny Coachen entering Cece Yew's apartment complex, knife in hand. This certainly does seem like it's relevant to the Manny Coachen case from ten years ago, but is it at all relevant to our current case? It seems like irrelevant evidence, but clearly, the smuggling ring leader disagrees. He or she ordered Jacques Portsman to steal it from Edgeworth's office, and Ernest Amano thought he could blackmail the smuggling ring leader with this tape. Our heroes look more closely at this tape. At the point where Coachen leaves, we see something very interesting. What is it? The flag on the front of the car! Highlight this, and Edgeworth will point out that it's the Cohdopian national flag. Before the significance of this can be explained, however, Ambassador Alba appears. The ambassador wants the investigation to end now, for a number of reasons. One, the investigation is suspect now, because one of the investigators (Shih-na) has been arrested. Two, Allebahst and Babahl are sort of in the middle of a country- reunification process here, and it'd help NOT to have police everywhere. Agent Lang then returns, saying he knows who the killer is. Who is it? Franziska von Karma! That's a bold accusation, and it's exactly what our heroes need to get permission from Ambassador Alba to continue the investigation. --- To get through this part of the game... Highlight the Cohdopian flag on the front of the car. Cross-Examination: Border-Crossing Weapons ------------------------------------------ The weapon in the Babahlese murder came from Allebahst. The weapon in the Allebahstian murder came from Babahl. Somehow, these two objects switched countries, and only Franziska could have done this. The problem with this testimony is rather minor. It's not TWO objects that switched countries; it's THREE. Two statues and one knife make three things moved between the two countries. Lang admits Edgeworth is right, but no matter how many items made international journeys, the only person who could have moved them was the Interpol Agent, Franziska von Karma. Edgeworth is challenged to find another way the items could have switched countries. There IS a way, which is so ridiculous, Edgeworth hesitates to say it. Say it he must, however. Present the photo of the Yatagarasu here. Edgeworth suggests that the Yatagarasu took the items across the borders, seeing as how the Yatagarasu visited both countries. Lang says this is ridiculous, because as we all know, people can't fly. This picture is not a picture of a flying person. Something about the way Lang phrases this statement catches Edgeworth's attention. If it's not a flying PERSON in the photo, maybe it's a flying THING. Present Allebahst's Primidux Statue. Maybe the picture is of the statues being switched. This guess by Edgeworth will eventually be proven correct, but he lacks the evidence to prove it now. Edgeworth then changes topics and asks Franziska to testify about the time she went to the Ambassador's room. --- To sum up this piece of cross-examination... Present one of the Primidux Statues at the statement "Somehow, these two objects were able to penetrate the two countries' impenetrable security." Present the photo of the Yatagarasu. Present Allebahst's Primidux Statue. Cross-Examination: Movements in Allebahst ----------------------------------------- Franziska was a guard today. She led the Steel Samurai to the office, then she inspected the rose garden. Then, she went back to the office to meet with Ambassador Alba. Franziska's testimony has no lies in it, as you'd expect. Press the final statement, about her returning to the office. She gives us more information about the Ambassador, watering flowers in the windowsill. Press this new statement to get clarification. She saw him with watering can in hand, in front of the four flowers. Wait...FOUR flowers? There are only TWO flowers in that box! Present the passionflowers at the statement which says there are four passionflowers. Franziska seems intrigued by this discrepancy, while Lang thinks it's irrelevant. Edgeworth goes to inspect the flowers. Here's where Edgeworth makes a tricky deduction that confuses a lot of gamers. You're supposed to notice that there are two holes in the dirt, and that the two hair sticks from Shih-na have dirt on them. Also, the hair sticks look a lot like the plant support sticks that are holding up the two remaining passionflowers. Conclusion? The hair sticks are really plant support sticks. Examine the flowers, then select "show evidence". Pick the hair sticks, and Edgeworth will explain this conclusion. Lang is skeptical that this is relevant to the case in any way, and he asks how the hair sticks got to Babahl. Select the crossbow. It turns out that the hair sticks, which are really plant support sticks, are REALLY crossbow bolts. Someone used them to move the statues from one country to the other. That's what the photo of the Yatagarasu is of! Lang then interrupts with new testimony. --- To get through this bit of testimony... Press the last statement. Press the last statement. Present the passionflowers at the statement about passionflowers. Examine the flower. Select "show evidence". Present the hair sticks. Select the crossbow. Cross-Examination: Border-Crossing, Pt. 2 ----------------------------------------- Babahl's statue was shot to Allebahst. But so what? No matter where they were shot from, the statues would fall to the ground. Press the second statement, which is "Even if you fired the arrows from this side, they wouldn't go far with a statue tied to them!" This gives you a new piece of testimony. At the new piece of testimony, "If it wasn't a statue that was tied to the arrows, then what did the crossbow launch...?", present the wire. Our culprit tied the wire to the crossbow, and with the wire tied between the two rooms, it was simple enough to switch the two statues. Lang wants more information on how this works. Select "rotary motion" to explain how it worked. The wire formed a large circle, and the two statues were moved at the same time. Lang wants some evidence. Fortunately, we have some. Select the ceiling fan. The two fans acted as pulleys, and they made the rotary motion. This is how the two statues were switched. Lang challenges Edgeworth to name the person who shot the crossbow arrows. At this point, present the crossbow arrows. The person who shot them had to have been someone who is familiar with both rooms, and someone who knew about the passionflowers well in advance. In other words, our suspect is...Ambassador Quercus Alba! --- To summarize this bit of cross-examination... Press the statement "Even if you fired the arrows from this side, they wouldn't go far with a statue tied to them!" Present the wire at the statement "If it wasn't a statue that was tied to the arrows, then what did the crossbow launch...?" Select "Rotary motion" Present the ceiling fan. Present the crossbow arrows. --- Alba seems rather nonplused at being accused of being the head of the smuggling ring. He just stands there and says nothing as our characters discuss matters. Present Allebahst's Primidux Statue here. Isn't it strange that Alba would want to trade the real statue for the fake one? Edgeworth decides to examine it. Examine the head of the statue. Edgeworth discovers the hollow compartment inside the statue. And what's this? Something is inside the compartment? It's the counterfeit plates! Ah, so THAT'S why Alba wanted to get this statue. After much discussion, in which Lang says that he only pretended to think Franziska was guilty as an excuse to continue the investigation, Alba finally speaks up, to defend himself. He does so rather well, by demanding proof that he's the leader of the smuggling ring. Edgeworth can choose whether or not to use the trump card. Pick the option you want. Either way, Edgeworth uses the trump card. Alba pretends he doesn't know what the card is, and he pretends not to know what's on the videotape. However, he still follows Edgeworth to the Theatrum Neutralis, to watch the videotape. The video plays. Edgeworth first proves that the card is from the head of the smuggling ring, and it had orders to kill Cece Yew. Do this by selecting the card, which Manny Coachen is holding in his right hand. Alba interrupts. The cards look the same, but ARE they the same card? It's been ten years since that video was shot, after all. Turn over the card and examine the blood. A simple DNA test will show that the blood is Cece Yew's. The video skips ahead, and thanks to a zoom-in feature on the VCR, we can see the moment where Manny and someone else drove away, in a Cohdopian car. First, let's prove that it is really Manny in the backseat of the car by presenting the pocket of the man by the window. Who is the other man in the backseat with Manny? That's the leader of the smuggling ring. Highlight the very distinctive medal on his chest. This medal is the one-of- a-kind medal that Alba is wearing right now. Alba then confesses to the murder of Mask DeMasque II, but he says it was in self-defense. He denies the fact that he is the head of the smuggling ring, though. Alba then pulls rank on everyone; as the Ambassador of Allebahst, he has extraterritorial rights, which prevent him from being tried in any court system other than Allebahst's. So, basically, there's no way Edgeworth or any of our heroes can prosecute him for his crimes. Alba then leaves, so he can officially evict all of our heroes, under his authority as Ambassador of Allebahst. --- To sum up this part of the game... Present Allebahst's Primidux Statue. Examine the head of the statue. Examine the counterfeit plates. Select either option. Select the card in Manny Coachen's hand. Examine the blood on the other side of the card. Select the pocket of the man sitting at the window. Select the medal on the pocket of the other man in the car. 7f. Moving the Body --------------------------------------------------------- -- Curses! Alba is abusing his power as an ambassador to avoid prosecution! It looks like our investigation is over... Or is it? Our various heroes split off into groups, each person going to do something else. Edgeworth is our main character, so the game stays with him and his investigation here in the Theatrum Neutralis. There is only one thing to examine in this investigation: the picture on a stand. It's a picture of the two ambassadors, with flowers and the Steel Samurai. What a great photo! There's something weird about it. Examine the yellow flower that Alba is holding. Deduce at this flower, then present the Allebahstian knife. That's no flower! It's the murder weapon! Wow, sneaking a murder weapon into another country, inside a bouquet of flowers? That's quite a trick. There is a missing petal on the flower-handle which conveniently proves that it is the handle in the boquet. The only other part of the investigation is LOGIC TIME! Using logic, connect the counterfeiting with renovations. It was unfortunate for the smuggler, Mr. Coachen, that Babahl's offices were being renovated. But who would have profited from the renovation? Select "Quercus Alba". He definitely profited from the death of Manny Coachen. At least, he had a motive to kill Manny. This is added to logic. Using Logic, connect the motive with Alba's agitation. There is something about Manny's death he doesn't want us to know. Could it be that he committed the murder in an unknown spot? Select the Theatrum Neutralis. Because this place is part of the United States, the US government can prosecute anyone for a crime committed in the Theatrum Neutralis. If Alba killed Coachen here, then Alba's extraterritorial rights won't protect him! Franziska returns with security footage. Get used to people suddenly appearing with new evidence or information, because it's going to happen a lot from here on out. Our heroes watch the tape from Allebahst's security camera. No one entered the country besides Ambassador Alba and Larry Butz. Select 5:23, the minute that Larry went to Allebahst. Here, examine the cart that Larry is pushing. Did you notice the suspicious bulge? What could have caused that, I wonder? Our heroes then look at Babahl's security tape. No one entered their country, not even Manny Coachen. This basically proves that Manny was killed outside of Babahl, and his body was transported to Babahl at a later time. After all, there is no footage of Manny entering Babahl while he was still alive. Ambassador Alba then appears and harasses our heroes. Just when it looks like our heroes are stuck, Ambassador Palaeno appears and uses his authority as an ambassador to get Alba to testify. Specifically, Alba testifies about his alibi. --- To finish this investigation... Examine the photo on the stand. Examine the yellow flower. Deduce at the flower, and present the Allebahstian knife. Using Logic, connect "Coachen's counterfeiting op." with "Renovations". Select "Quercus Alba". Using Logic, connect "Agitated Alba" with "Motive to kill Coachen". Present the Theatrum Neutralis. Select 5:23. Examine the pushcart. Cross-Examination: Ambassador Alba's Alibi ------------------------------------------ There is no reason to suspect Alba. After all, under Edgeworth's scenario, Alba and Coachen are partners in crime. In any case, Alba was in Allebahst the whole time. Ergo, he did not commit a murder in Babahl. To get through this testimony, Edgeworth needs to focus on the motive. Press the second statement, about him and Coachen being smugglers. This causes Alba to make a new piece of testimony, one which says he has no motive. Ah, this statement is easy to disprove. Present Mask DeMasque II's note at this statement which says Alba had no motive. He had a really good motive! Manny Coachen ordered someone to steal the Primidux Statue. In other words, Coachen betrayed him. Also, by killing Coachen, Alba had the very good opportunity to push all the blame for the smuggling ring onto Coachen. Alba interrupts Edgeworth. Even if Edgeworth has proven a motive, this doesn't prove that Alba is a murderer. Alba declares he is going to leave, when Kay Faraday jumps in at the last second with new evidence. Kay's evidence is the Little Thief, and Byrne Faraday's pocket organizer. They aren't conclusive pieces of evidence, but Alba wants to get rid of them nonetheless. He agrees to do another round of testimony, in exchange for these pieces of evidence. --- To sum up this bit of cross-examination... Press the statement "Under your hypothetical scenario, Mr. Coachen and I were fellow smugglers". Present DeMasque II's note at the statement "In that case, what motive would I have had to kill my co- conspirator?". Cross-Examination: Alba's Alibi, Pt. 2 -------------------------------------- The last time Alba saw Coachen was in the Theatrum Neutralis. After that, he returned to Allebahst and stayed there the whole time. Coachen did not go to Allebahst during this time, so the two never met during the time span in which the murder occurred. Alba's new piece of testimony comes with a hefty price: large penalties! If you press a statement that you shouldn't, or if you present the wrong piece of evidence, you get a large penalty. It turns out you don't need to press any statements at all. Simply go to the statement about the meeting in the Theatrum Neutralis and present the commemorative photo, the one that shows Alba holding the murder weapon. Alba is nervous at this point, but the fact that he brought the murder weapon to the Theatrum Neutralis is no proof of guilt, even with a proven motive. With this round of testimony over, Alba takes the evidence. Before leaving, he reminds everyone that he is an ambassador, which means he has extraterritoriality and diplomatic immunity, so there is no way he can be prosecuted for his crimes. Agent Lang then appears. He used the videotape from Edgeworth to convince Allebahstian officials to fire Alba. In other words, as of right now, Alba is no longer an ambassador. All right! So, Alba's diplomatic immunity has been negated, and the fact that the crime took place on United States soil negates his extraterritoriality. In other words, we can now prosecute him fully! ...Once we prove his guilt with evidence and testimony, that is. --- To get through this bit of cross-examination... Present the commemorative photo at the statement "The last time I met with Mr. Coachen was here at the Theatrum Neutralis". Cross-Examination: Alba's Alibi, Pt. 3 -------------------------------------- Alba claims he left the bouquet of flowers (and the knife) in the theater, where anyone could have taken it. Besides, there's no way the murder took place in the Theatrum Neutralis. How did the body get moved from the theater to Babahl? How was the body moved? It was moved with the pushcart, so present the pushcart at the final statement. Alternately, present the security footage which shows the pushcart being moved. Edgeworth points out the mysterious bulge in the pushcart. Select the picture of Mr. Coachen, in the form of the notes on Coachen's body. The bulge in the pushcart is Mr. Coachen's corpse. In other words, the body was transported in the pushcart! Edgeworth lacks the evidence to prove this, until Detective Gumshoe bursts in with the pushcart in question. Examine the inside of the cart, which has a blood stain. This proves the cart was used to move Manny Coachen's body, once the lab technicians confirm that it is Manny Coachen's blood. Edgeworth isn't sure how the body was moved from Allebahst to Babahl, but he hopes the next testimony will shed some light on the subject. --- To get through this bit of cross-examination: Present the pushcart or the security footage at the statement "There is no way for me to have transported his body from the theater to Babahl!" Present the notes on Coachen's Body. Examine the blood on the inside of the cart. Cross-Examination: Movements in Allebahst ----------------------------------------- Alba had his picture taken with the Steel Samurai. He was going to give his speech, when the Yatagarasu appeared. Then, he ran to his office. Alba's testimony leaves out a lot of things, such as his meeting with Franziska, the part where he and Calisto Yew swapped the two statues, his murder of Mask DeMasque II, and, oh yeah, the part where he moved Manny Coachen's body from Allebahst to Babahl. Press every statement. There are no contradictions anywhere in the testimony, mainly because Alba omitted the parts that are relevant to the murder of Manny Coachen. It's starting to look like Alba will get away with his crimes, when three champions of justice appear: Steel Samurai Daddy, Pink Princess Mommy and the Iron Infant. The Iron Infant is soaking wet, because he was found in a pool in Babahl. Edgeworth pounces on this information. If the Iron Infant travelled from Allebahst to Babahl, did Manny Coachen's body follow the same route? This seems likely, as the Iron Infant was in the pushcart along with Manny Coachen's corpse. Select "bilateral symmetry". Edgeworth is then challenged to locate where Babahl's pool of water is. Since the embassy is made with bilateral symmetry in mind, it's on the other side of the wall, opposite of Allebahst's pool of water. Gumshoe runs to this area and finds the water. Aha! This is surely the route the body took! Lang comes up with an objection to this. How did the body go from the Allebahst pool to the Babahl pool? Sure, the pools are connected underground, but it's not like bodies can swim. Edgeworth explains. First, Alba put the pushcart, with the dead body and the Iron Infant, into the pool on Allebahst's side. Shih-na jumped into the pool on Babahl's side. Then, both pools were drained. Select the fires in Babahl to explain why the two pools were drained; they were drained to help put out the fire. Once the pools were drained, it was easy for Shih-na to walk to Allebahst's pool, collect the body, then take it to Babahl's side. Select the fountain spouts to explain how the pool was refilled. Shih-na and the pushcart simply floated up to the top! Then, she got out of the pool and transported the dead body to Manny Coachen's office. This is all a conjecture, however. Edgeworth lacks the evidence to back up his theory. Or does he? Present the guitar pick. It's not a guitar pick at all! It's the missing petal, from the handle of the murder weapon. Present the Allebahstian knife, and Edgeworth puts the petal on the knife handle. It's a perfect fit, which proves the knife handle was transported through the two pools of water. Alba refuses to admit his guilt, however. --- To get through this piece of cross-examination... Press every statement. Select "bilateral symmetry." Select where the pool of water would be, on the Babahlese side of the wall. Present the fires is Babahl. Present the fountain spouts. Present the guitar pick. Present the Allebahstian knife. 7g. Case Closed! --------------------------------------------------------- -- Edgeworth decides to change the topic. He's proven how the dead body was moved, but he still doesn't know all the specifics of the murder. Therefore, he asks Alba to testify about the time of the murder. Cross-Examination: The Steel Samurai's Show ------------------------------------------- Alba was in the back of the theater, where nobody could see him. He remembers the contents of the show, and he watched the whole thing. Press the third statement, the one about him remembering the show. Alba supports this claim by saying his favorite part was the end, where the Steel Samurai used the never- before-seen "Early Summer Rain Jab" move. Since the move has never been seen before, Alba's knowledge of its existence proves he attended the play. Or DOES it? As Edgeworth says, that is a move used with the Samurai Spear, and we know that Larry broke the spear in rehearsal! Present the Samurai Spear at the statement about the Early Summer Rain Jab move. Because the spear was broken, this move was NOT used in the play. The fact that Alba says the move was used proves that Alba was NOT in the audience during the play! Alba lies and says he was in the bathroom during the time the move was used. Edgeworth is upset at this excuse, because Edgeworth is a major Steel Samurai Fan. What kind of fan leaves during the best part of the show? Larry comes to Alba's defense, because Larry is sure that Alba is a Steel Samurai Maniac. After all, only a few people knew the name "Early Summer Rain Jab", seeing as the move was cancelled from the play and has never been seen before. They only decided what the name of the move was shortly before the play. Alba orders Larry to stop talking, but it's too late. The name of the move wasn't formally announced? That means Alba knows the name of the move because... Select "he saw it". Where did he see it? On the bulletin board, backstage. And of course, we know that the killer was backstage, when he shoved Manny Coachen's body into the pushcart. So Alba was in the same place as the killer, around the time the killer was there, too. Alba sticks to his earlier lie that he went to the bathroom. He says he got lost looking for the bathroom, though, which is why he was inside the dressing room for a brief period of time. This is a lie, but there's no way to disprove it. For about the fifth time in a row, it looks like our heroes are stuck and Alba will get away, when someone jumps in at the last second with new evidence. This time, Wendy Oldbag is our unlikely hero. She has a box of Samurai Dogs with a red spot on it. Interesting... Using Logic, connect the "samurai dogs" with the "body in the pushcart". Edgeworth concludes that the Samurai Dogs were removed from the pushcart, to make room so the body could be put inside. Then, connect "rising sun dogs" with "Samurai Dogs were removed". What if the red spot on the box is blood? Specifically, a drop of blood from the time that the victim's body was being moved? Examine the red spot on the box, and Agent Lang decides to have it analyzed. Our heroes talk for a bit, and the analysis comes back. It is definitely blood. Everyone celebrates, but their joy is premature. As Alba is quick to point out, even if the blood belongs to the victim, it does not prove that Alba is the killer. Our heroes immediately become disappointed. Their disappoint turns to confusion, as Forensics confirms that the blood does NOT belong to the victim. Whose blood is it, then? Edgeworth wonders what Phoenix Wright would do in this situation. This gives Edgeworth the insight he needs to perform a turnabout. Whose blood is it? Present Quercus Alba. Where did the blood come from? Present Ambassador Alba's wound. What knife made the wound? Present the Yatagarasu's Key. And with this, the long case finally draws to a close. The blood was from the struggle between Coachen and Alba, when Alba killed Coachen. The fact that Alba's blood was found in the dressing room proves the struggle took place there. Alba finally confesses, and he is arrested. Of course, Edgeworth intends on being the lead prosecutor for Alba's trial here in the United States. Franziska is the lead prosecutor for Alba's trial in Allebahst, which went through with its plans to reunite with Babahl. The game ends with a few scenes, where we learn what happened to the various characters, after the defeat of the smuggling ring. It's happily ever after for pretty much everyone. Way to go, Edgeworth! Case Closed. --- To get through this cross-examination... Press the statement "I do remember the contents of the show very well, though. Is that proof enough for you?" Present the samurai spear at the statement "One of the scenes was of his never-before-seen "Early Summer Rain Jab" move." Select "You saw it." Present the pushcart. Using Logic, connect "Samurai Dogs" with "Body in the pushcart". Using Logic, connect "Rising Sun Dogs" with "Samurai Dogs were removed". Examine the red spot. Present Quercus Alba. Present Ambassador Alba's Wound. Present Yatagarasu's Key. 8. Credits --------------------------------------------------------- -- This FAQ is copyright of The Lost Gamer, 2011.
