Introduction !!!!!!!!!!!! Greetings, fellow gamers! Oracle93 coming at you with his second full guide, and fourth GameFAQs file overall. This time, it�s for an awesome game that I finished recently, Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney. The game is very different from a lot of games, and the concept is innovative: you are a rookie defense lawyer who must get five clients declared innocent in the face of overwhelming evidence. While the game is not exactly a realistic simulation of courtroom proceedings, it is very fun and fast- paced and tests your critical thinking skills to the limit. A few general rules before we start: if you want to e-mail me a question, make sure to read the entire guide to see if it�s answered. Chances are it is, but if it�s really not, feel free to send it to me. Also, I have to be able to read it, so no IM talk or leetspeak.

Story !!!!! �Why did I become a lawyer? Because someone has to stick up for the people who have no-one on their side.�-Phoenix Wright You play Phoenix Wright, a cynical defense lawyer fresh out of law school. He is taking his first cases under the tutelage of the famous Mia Fey, of Fey & Co. Law Offices. Phoenix must learn to survive in an legal system of guilty until proven innocent, where the rules consistently favor the prosecution. Throughout the game, Phoenix will represent five clients in far-reaching cases that deal with such subjects as blackmail, the mob, and police corruption. He will also meet such characters as Maya Fey, Mia�s sister who will become Phoenix�s assistant, Dick Gumshoe, a somewhat bumbling detective at the Criminal Affairs Dept., and of course Miles Edgeworth, the requisite �evil prosecutor� who will go up against Phoenix in several trials. !!!!!!!!!!!!!! Game Mechanics !!!!!!!!!!!!!! During the detective work sequences, you will control Phoenix from a first-person viewpoint. You have five options that will appear on the bottom screen: TALK: If there is someone in front of you, use this to talk to them. You will be presented with a list of subjects to talk about, and it�s recommended you talk about all of them. During conversation, use A or tap the triangle �play� symbol on the bottom screen to cycle through speech sections. EXAMINE: Select this, and you will see the area on the bottom screen, devoid of whoever may be standing there. Use the stylus or D-Pad to move the cursor. When the cursor is over a point of interest, the �Examine� button appears at the bottom-right. Press it for a description of the object. MOVE: This will allow you to move to a different location. A list of accessible areas appears on the screen, so select where you want to go. There are certain areas you can only access from one other area. PRESENT: This allows you to show people items that may get them to say something important. The Court Record will open, and you will pick the item you want to show. COURT RECORD: This is present during both detective work and trial sequences. When you select it in the top-right corner, it shows a list of all the evidence you have collected. Select an item for a short description. Sometimes when you get evidence such as a map or a photograph, the Check button appears in the bottom right. Use this to look more closely. Also, the Profiles section holds bios of everybody relevant to the proceedings. During a trial, cycle through conversation in the same way as above. During a cross-examination, the statements from the testimony appear on the screen, and you can cycle back and forth through them with the two arrows on the touch screen. There are also three options: PRESS: Use this to needle a witness on the subject of whatever statement is currently shown. Sometimes, this is all you need to do to get them to break down. PRESENT: If there is a direct contradiction in the testimony, use this to present evidence from the court record that proves it. Evidence added to the court record or presented is in all caps. COURT RECORD: Same as during detective work. If, during a trial, you present the wrong evidence or say something wrong, you will lose one of five exclamation points you have. If you lose them all, the trial is over and your client is guilty. Also, there are some things you can say that will lose the trial automatically! !!! FAQ !!! Q: Can I put your walkthrough on my website? A: Sure, just remember to ask permission first or it�s plagiarism. !!!!!!!!!!! Walkthrough !!!!!!!!!!! ############################## EPISODE 1: THE FIRST TURNABOUT (1FIRST) ############################## VICTIM: Cindy Stone DEFENDANT: Larry Butz ATTORNEY FOR THE DEFENSE: Phoenix Wright ATTORNEY FOR THE PROSECUTION: Winston Payne WITNESS LIST: Larry Butz, Frank Sahwit Case 1 is the �training� case, and as such, it has no detective work sequence, only a trial. This case is, as Phoenix describes it, a fairly simple one: a model has been beaten to death in her apartment, and Phoenix�s childhood friend, Larry Butz, is taking the rap. Phoenix�s job is to represent Larry and get him proven not guilty. ***** TRIAL (1FIRSTT) ***** �Give me the death penalty! I�m not afraid to die!�-Larry Butz After the opening cutscene, in which we see the true murderer, Phoenix and Mia talk in the defendant�s lobby for a bit before Larry runs in. He is so despairing over his girlfriend�s death that he is ready for the death penalty. Phoenix will introduce himself and the case, and then the trial begins. To start, the judge will give Phoenix a test to make sure he�s ready for the trial. There are three questions to answer: Question 1: Please state the name of the defendant in this case. Easy. The answer is Larry Butz. Question 2: Who is the victim in this case? Phoenix doesn�t know this one, so Mia will give him a quick tutorial on the Court Record. Check the Profiles section to find that the answer is Cindy Stone. Question 3: What was the cause of death? Check the Court Record again. In the Evidence section, find CINDY�S AUTOPSY REPORT, which states that she died due to blunt trauma. Now that the quiz is over, the judge believes that Phoenix is ready. The judge asks the prosecutor, Winston Payne, to explain what the murder weapon was. He says it was a STATUE of �The Thinker� which will be added to the court record. After this, Payne calls Larry to testify. Payne asks Larry if it�s true that Cindy recently dumped him. Larry denies this, but it�s true anyway. Payne says that she had returned from Paris with one of her boyfriends the day before the murder. Her PASSPORT is added to the court record. Payne goes on to say that Cindy had �Sugar Daddies� who gave her money that she used to support her opulent lifestyle. Payne then asks Larry what he thinks of Cindy now. Larry could say something to hurt himself here, so Phoenix should stop him from answering. The motive is now clear, so Payne asks if Larry had gone to the apartment on the day of the murder. Larry speaks vaguely, so select to have him answer honestly. Larry will say he went, but she wasn�t home. Payne says he was lying, and calls a witness to prove it: Frank Sahwit, the man who found the victim�s body. The moment this guy takes the stand, you should recognize him. It�s that guy in the purple suit from the opening scene: the true murderer! ------------------------------------------------- Witness Testimony: Frank Sahwit-Witness�s Account ------------------------------------------------- Sahwit describes the day of the murder: he was selling newspaper subscriptions door-to-door when he saw a man fleeing an apartment. It was strange because he left the door half-open behind him. Thinking it odd, Sahwit looked inside the apartment and saw the victim lying dead. He was unable to go inside because of fear, and though to call the police, but the phone wasn�t working, so he used a public phone at the park. He remembers the time exactly, 1:00 PM, and identifies the fleeing man as Larry Butz. The judge asks why the phone wasn�t working, and Payne says there was a blackout. The phone was a cordless one that wouldn�t function without power. Payne presents a BLACKOUT RECORD that is added to the Court Record. Mia gives you a tutorial on cross-examinations, and then it�s time to pick apart the testimony! ------------------------------------------------- Cross-Examination: Frank Sahwit-Witness�s Account ------------------------------------------------- This is quite easy. In this trial, it is not even necessary to ever press the witness. Go to Sahwit�s statement about the time: 1:00 PM. Present CINDY�S AUTOPSY REPORT, which identifies the time as three hours later than what Sahwit said. Sahwit will now have to change his testimony to explain why he was so sure of the time. ----------------------------------------------------- Witness Testimony: Frank Sahwit-The Time of Discovery ----------------------------------------------------- Sahwit says that he heard the time when he found the body, and that the voice saying it was coming from the television. He explains that it was three hours off because the victim was watching a tape, and that�s why he thought it was 1:00 PM. Time to cross-examine. ----------------------------------------------------- Cross Examination: Frank Sahwit-The Time of Discovery ----------------------------------------------------- Again, very easy. When Sahwit says that the victim was watching a tape, present the BLACKOUT RECORD to prove that the television couldn�t have been working. Sahwit will change his testimony again. ------------------------------------------------ Witness Testimony: Frank Sahwit-Hearing the Time ------------------------------------------------ Sahwit didn�t hear the time, he saw it. There was a table clock in the apartment, the murder weapon that was used to hit the victim. ------------------------------------------------ Cross-Examination: Frank Sahwit-Hearing the Time ------------------------------------------------ At the statement about the murder weapon, present the STATUE. Phoenix will say it�s a statue, not a table clock. Payne explains that the statue is a clock, and if you tilt a switch in the neck, it will say the time. However, there�s still a problem with the testimony, so answer �Yes� when the judge asks. The only way Sahwit could have known it was a clock is to hold it in his had, yet he said he never went into the apartment! Select that the witness knew it was a clock because he went into the apartment. Phoenix says the he can prove Sahwit was the one who killed her, and explains that the force of the blow was enough to trigger the clock�s voice. The sound left an impression on him, which is why the voice was burned into his memory. Sahwit denies it all and throws his toupee at Phoenix. The judge calls for order, and asks Phoenix for evidence that Sahwit heard the sound from the clock. The sound he heard was definitely it, a fact which is clear if you simply try sounding the clock. The clock rings and announces the time: 8:25. According to Payne, the time is now 11:25, proving that the clock is exactly three hours slow. Sahwit claims you forgot one thing, and that if you can�t prove the clock was three hours slow on the day of the murder, there�s no case. Phoenix can�t prove that, and the cross- examination ends... ...until Mia jumps in. She tells Phoenix to think outside the box, to not doubt the facts and instead wonder WHY the clock was three hours slow. The judge asks for evidence why the clock was three hours slow on the day of the murder. Present the PASSPORT, proving that due to the time difference between here and Paris, the clock was not three hours slow; it was nine hours fast. Cindy had forgotten to reset the clock after returning home from Paris. Sahwit faints, and is arrested. The judge is impressed, and declares Mr. Larry Butz NOT GUILTY!!! Court is adjourned. It turns out Sahwit was a common criminal, pretending to sell papers so he could get into empty houses. As he was searching Cindy�s apartment, she returned, and he grabbed a blunt object and beat her to death. Mia congratulates you, but Larry doesn�t look so happy: he�s still lost Cindy forever. Larry gives Mia a copy of the clock as a gift (he made them both), and talks about Cindy playing him for a fool. Mia says there is something you can show Larry to prove Cindy still had feelings for him. Present the STATUE: Cindy took it with her to Paris, even though it�s pretty heavy to carry around. Enjoy the ending cutscene; you�ve beaten Episode 1! The others aren�t nearly this short, though. ############################ EPISODE 2: TURNABOUT SISTERS (2SISTERS) ############################ VICTIM: Mia Fey DEFENDANT: Maya Fey ATTORNEY FOR THE DEFENSE: Phoenix Wright ATTORNEY FOR THE PROSECUTION: Miles Edgeworth WITNESS LIST: Dick Gumshoe, April May, Bellboy, Redd White This time around, the victim is your mentor, Mia Fey. She has been beaten to death by the same statue that killed Cindy Stone, although it was swung by a different hand. Her sister, Maya Fey, is incriminated, and you have to represent her. As you investigate the case, you�ll turn up blackmail, an evil corporation, and something called DL-6... **************** DETECTIVE WORK 1 (2SISTERSDW1) **************** �I shall have to ask for something else, Ms. Fey...your eternal silence!�-Unknown --------------------- FEY & CO. LAW OFFICES --------------------- In the opening scene, you�ll here a conversation between Mia and her sister, Maya. After it�s all over, you�ll gain control in your first detective work sequence. Move to the Office. You�ll discover the corpse and briefly meet Maya Fey. After that, you regain control in the office. Examine Mia�s body to add THE THINKER and the GLASS SHARDS to the court record. A piece of paper falls from Mia�s hand. Examine it: it�s got Maya�s name written in blood. The RECEIPT is added to the court record. Move to the left and examine the phone to find that somebody was taking it apart. Then, a woman outside the window calls the police. Click move and select the Fey & Co. Law Offices. Maya will show up again and introduce herself. Talk to her about what happened, then about her and the chief. Present the RECEIPT with her name on it, and the police show up. You�ll meet Dick Gumshoe, who will see the RECEIPT and believe Mia wrote the killer�s name: Maya. Maya is taken to the precinct, and you meet her in the detention center. ---------------- DETENTION CENTER ---------------- Maya asks if you�re going to be her attorney, so say that it�s up to her. Apparently, Mia advised her not to talk to you if she�s in trouble, because you lack experience. Talk to her about Maya to learn that she�s a spirit medium in training. Talk about spirit mediums to learn that the whole Fey family is involved in psychic work. However, Maya�s still in training, so she can�t talk to Mia. Talk about the day of the crime to get an account: that morning, Mia had called her to ask her to hold some evidence: the clock shaped like �The Thinker�. Phoenix asks how that could be evidence, and Maya offers to have Mia explain in her own voice, via a recorded cell phone conversation. Talk about your cell phone, and Maya remembers that Gumshoe took it. She gives you a memo to remind you to ask for it next time you see him. MAYA�S MEMO is added to the court record. Also, she asks you a favor: go see a famous lawyer who Mia told her to talk to, and ask him to represent her. Accept the favor: the trial is tomorrow at 10:00. Talk about the day of the crime again to get the full account: she arrived at the office and found Mia dead. Leave the conversation, click move and select the Grossberg Law Offices. --------------------- GROSSBERG LAW OFFICES --------------------- The big boss, Marvin Grossberg, is out. You can look around if you want, but there�s really nothing to do here. Go to the Fey & Co. Law Offices. --------------------- FEY & CO. LAW OFFICES --------------------- Here, you�ll meet Detective Gumshoe again. Identify him as Gumshoe. Talk about Mia to get MIA�S AUTOPSY REPORT added to the court record. Talk about Maya, and Gumshoe says the trial is unwinnable--Miles Edgeworth is on the prosecution. Talk about Edgeworth: he feels no pain and no remorse, and won�t stop until he gets a guilty verdict. He is surrounded by rumors of shady deals and forged evidence, and hates crime with a passion. Present MAYA�S MEMO to Gumshoe, and tell him straight to get the memo replaced with MAYA�S CELL PHONE. Check the court record, and listen to the cell phone conversation. Gumshoe will then mention the witness, Miss April May, the woman who called the police. He can�t tell you anything about her, though. Go to the Gatewater Hotel. --------------- GATEWATER HOTEL --------------- Here, you�ll meet April May, who will run off to freshen up. This is a prime opportunity for snooping, so examine the drawer with the screwdriver sticking out. Miss May will return and angrily tell you not to touch it. Talk to her about what she witnessed; she refuses to talk. Talk about Miss May, and Phoenix asks her what she does; still nothing. Talk about this room to ask about the two glasses; Miss May still will not say anything. Go to the Grossberg Law Offices. --------------------- GROSSBERG LAW OFFICES --------------------- Grossberg is finally at the office, so you can talk to him. Phoenix mentions that it�s about Maya Fey, and Grossberg immediately says he cannot take the case. Talk about his refusal, and he starts acting odd. Talk about Mia to learn that she was Grossberg�s apprentice. Talk about the painting to learn that it is extremely valuable, and that he will not part with it. Move to the detention center. ---------------- DETENTION CENTER ---------------- You have to break the news to Maya that Grossberg won�t take the case. Phoenix tries lying, but Maya sees through it quickly and realizes he refused. Talk to her about her family--you'll learn that Mia was the only family she had. Her father died when she was young, and her mother is missing. Talk about her mother, and you�ll learn that after her family was involved in an incident years ago, a man ruined her mother�s life. Talk about her mother�s enemy. Apparently, the police attempted to solve a murder by using a spirit medium--Maya's mother. The man the victim�s spirit said killed him was found innocent, and a man leaked it to the press that her mother was a �fraud�. The man�s name was White. The court-appointed lawyer is about to come, and Phoenix wonders what he should do. Select to defend Maya, and explain that you can�t abandon her. Maya accepts, and Phoenix asks if she�s innocent. She definitely is. Go to the Gatewater Hotel: you have to find out what�s in the drawer Miss April May locked. --------------- GATEWATER HOTEL --------------- April May isn�t here, but the bellboy is. The bellboy asks you to give May a message: Mr. White of Bluecorp phoned. Phoenix remembers that as the name of the man who ruined her mother�s life. Examine the drawer to add the WIRETAP to the court record. Save your data; the trial is about to begin! ******* TRIAL 1 (2SISTERST1) ******* �Bottom-feeding, scum-sucking lawyer!�-April May The trial begins with Miles Edgeworth�s opening statement. He says that Maya was at the scene, they have evidence and witnesses, and that there is no reason to doubt the facts. He calls Detective Gumshoe as his first witness. Gumshoe uses the floor plans to explain the crime: the body was found by the window, and the murder weapon was another statue of THE THINKER, found next to the body. The FLOOR PLANS are added to the court record. Gumshoe then testifies about Maya�s arrest. ------------------------------------------------- WITNESS TESTIMONY: DICK GUMSHOE-MAYA FEY�S ARREST ------------------------------------------------- Gumshoe rushed to the scene the moment he got the call. At the scene, there were already two people: Maya Fey and Phoenix Wright. He arrested Maya, because they had a witness account describing her--a witness who saw the very moment of the murder. ------------------------------------------------- CROSS-EXAMINATION: DICK GUMSHOE-MAYA FEY�S ARREST ------------------------------------------------- Press the statement about the witness account. Phoenix asks what about a witness�s claim is the �hard evidence� he described earlier. The judge asks if he has anything else, and Gumshoe mentions that there is something else he should have said earlier. --------------------------------------------- WITNESS TESTIMONY: DICK GUMSHOE-HARD EVIDENCE --------------------------------------------- After securing the suspect, Gumshoe examined the crime with his own eyes. He found a memo next to the body with the word �Maya� written clearly in blood. Lab tests show that the blood was the victim�s, and blood was found on the victim�s finger. Before she died, the victim wrote the killer�s name! The judge has a question: why did he not testify about this the first time! Gumshoe says he was so nervous and embarassed, he forgot. --------------------------------------------- CROSS-EXAMINATION: DICK GUMSHOE-HARD EVIDENCE --------------------------------------------- According to the autopsy, Mia was killed instantly after being struck. She wouldn�t have had time to write anything! Present MIA�S AUTOPSY REPORT to bring up this contradiction. Edgeworth asks when you got the report. You received it the day after the murder, which, according to Edgeworth, is dated. Another autopsy was performed, the results of which show that Mia lived for a few minutes after being hit. You have to say something here to stop him; select �you�re a sham, Edgeworth!� and you�ll ask why he requested a second autopsy. Edgeworth won�t answer. MIA�S AUTOPSY REPORT is updated in the court record. Edgeworth will then call April May to testify. ---------------------------------------------- WITNESS TESTIMONY: APRIL MAY-WITNESS�S ACCOUNT ---------------------------------------------- At around 9:00 at night, May looked out the window and saw a woman with long hair (Mia) being attacked. She identifies the attacker as Maya. Mia dodged to one side and ran away, but Maya caught up and hit her. Then Mia kind of...slumped. Say yes when the judge asks whether or not you want to cross-examine. She has to have a weakness! ---------------------------------------------- CROSS-EXAMINATION: APRIL MAY-WITNESS�S ACCOUNT ---------------------------------------------- Press the statement in which Miss May identifies Maya as the killer. May explains that she knew it was her because of her �girlish physique�. However, Maya�s clothes are much more distinctive than her physique. Select to question the testimony, and say you�re willing to bet that she�s lying. If May had really seen the defendant, she would have noticed the acolyte�s outfit and odd hairdo first! Phoenix proves she was dressed that way on the night of the murder by saying that both he and Detective Gumshoe saw her. The judge asks Miss May to testify again. ---------------------------------------------- WITNESS TESTIMONY: APRIL MAY-WITNESS�S ACCOUNT ---------------------------------------------- May swears she saw everything. The victim dodged the first attack and ran to the right, after which Maya ran after her and hit her with the weapon: that clock, THE THINKER. ---------------------------------------------- CROSS-EXAMINATION: APRIL MAY-WITNESS�S ACCOUNT ---------------------------------------------- There�s an obvious problem there: how would she have known the weapon was a clock? Press the statement where she mentions the weapon, then present THE THINKER. There is no way of knowing that it�s a clock just be looking at it. Edgeworth attempts to stop the questioning here, but Phoenix continues and forces May to explain how she knew it was a clock. May says that she heard it, but she�s never been to the Fey & Co. Law Offices. The law offices are so close to the hotel that she could easily have heard the clock. However, you heard in the conversation at the beginning of this episode that Mia took the workings out of the clock. Say that you�re not satisfied because the clock couldn�t have rung, and that it was empty. The judge backs up your claim: the clock is missing its clockwork! However, Edgeworth mentions that you can�t say there is a contradiction unless the clockwork was removed before the murder. To prove this, present MAYA�S CELL PHONE. Mia, in the conversation recorded the morning before the murder, says she took the workings out! April May says that she knew it was a clock because she�d seen it before at a store. Of course you object to this, so say yes when asked. To prove she had never seen it before, present THE THINKER. It was made by Larry Butz--there are only two in the world! May becomes suspiciously angry when you say this. It�s now time to explain why she knew it was a clock. Select that she had heard about it, and present the WIRETAP as proof. Phoenix accuses Miss May of tapping Mia�s phone. Prove that Mia said, on the phone, that the statue was a clock by presenting MAYA�S CELL PHONE. In the conversation, Mia identifies it as a clock. Phoenix says that the only way she could have known it is a clock is to have heard it by tapping this conversation. The judge now forces May to answer whether or not she was tapping the victim�s phone. She refueses to answer. Alright, you LAWYER, time for the final blow. Select �why the wiretap?� May now has to prove that she has nothing to do with Mia�s murder even though she was tapping her phone. Unfortunately, it seems she can pull it off. May says that the murder occurred at 9:00, exactly the time she ordered iced coffee from her bellboy. This proves she was not at the scene of the crime. You have to say something here: call the bellboy as a witness! Edgeworth allows you to call the bellboy, on one condition: if Miss May�s alibi is not called into question during his testimony, you must accept that Maya is guilty. Accept the condition to call the bellboy. -------------------------------------------------------- WITNESS TESTIMONY: HOTEL BELLBOY-MISS MAY�S ROOM SERVICE -------------------------------------------------------- The bellboy introduces himself as the head bellboy for the Gatewater Hotel. After 8:00 in the evening he received a call from Miss May, asking for an iced coffee to be brought to her at 9:00 exactly. He brought it to her at the requested time, and delivered it to May herself. -------------------------------------------------------- CROSS-EXAMINATION: HOTEL BELLBOY-MISS MAY�S ROOM SERVICE -------------------------------------------------------- There is nothing you can actually do here, so press every statement until Edgeworth says that there is nothing there. The judge asks the bellboy to leave the stand, but Phoenix should protest. The judge gives you one more question to ask before the bellboy leaves and Maya is found guilty. Ask about check-in. The bellhop says that his first impression was that Miss May was his type of girl, so it was a disappointment that her �lover� was there. Phoenix forces the bellboy to tell him whether or not May checked in with another person. The bellboy says she did, and that he didn�t mention it because Edgeworth told him not to if he wasn�t asked. Miss May checked in with a man, and when the bellboy brought room service, this man was not in the room. Phoenix says that they have learned of another person who may have been involved, and that it is impossible to judge the defendant in this light. Identify the �other person� as the man with Miss May: a man that has no alibi! It�s even more suspicious that Edgeworth hid this man from the court. The judge requests that you look into the matter of this other man, and court is adjourned. After the scene in the lobby, Phoenix mentions that he requested a record of April May�s testimony. However, it�s so full of lies that only one part was left on record: the account of the murder. The MAY TESTIMONY is added to the Court Record. Time for a bit more detective work. **************** DETECTIVE WORK 2 (2SISTERSDW2) **************** �Arresting Mr. White will be nigh on impossible.�-Marvin Grossberg ---------------- DETENTION CENTER ---------------- At the beginning, you�ll be at the detention center talking to April May. She is still mad and doesn�t want to cooperate, but she lets you ask some questions anyway. Talk about that �man�--she will not say anything, nor will she talk about the wiretap, or her attitude. Phoenix wonders if there is something she can do to make her talk. Go to the Gatewater Hotel. --------------- GATEWATER HOTEL --------------- Talk to the bellboy about Miss May to learn that he though all along she�d �do it�. Talk about the man with Miss May to learn that he could probably identify him if he had a photograph. Talk about the hotel to learn his plans for changing the name, then go to the Grossberg Law Offices. --------------------- GROSSBERG LAW OFFICES --------------------- Examine the wall. There used to be a painting there, of a fisherman. Examine the photographs on the desk. They are marked �DL-6 incident- Exhibits A and B�. Take exhibit A to add the PHOTOGRAPH to the court record. The person looks familiar, but the photo is not useful right now, so look at the photos again and swap photos to get exhibit B. This appears as a different PHOTOGRAPH in the court record. Go to the Gatewater Hotel. --------------- GATEWATER HOTEL --------------- Present the PHOTOGRAPH to the bellboy. Apparently, the man in this photo is the man who checked in with Miss May. Have him write an affidavit swearing this fact. The BELLBOY�S AFFIDAVIT is added to the court record. Go to the detention center. ---------------- DETENTION CENTER ---------------- Present the PHOTOGRAPH to Miss May, who denies she checked in with this man and asks for proof. Present the BELLBOY�S AFFIDAVIT to prove who the man is. Select to push her hard, and Phoenix says he will show the photo to the press if she doesn�t talk. May will break down and identify the man as her boss, Redd White, the C.E.O. of Bluecorp, an �information gathering conglomerate�. She says you could call them a detetive agency, but that she is scared to talk more. Phoenix says he will talk to Redd White himself. Go to Bluecorp. -------- BLUECORP -------- You�ll notice that Grossberg�s painting is hanging on the wall. Redd White will show up and ask for your name, then introduce himself and his giantesque vocabulary. He will ask what business you have--it�s time to ask him some questions. First, talk about Miss May, his secretary. White says it was a shock to hear about her wiretapping, and although she does gather information for the company, they do not use illegal methods. Talk about the night of the murder. He refuses to say whether or not he was in the hotel room with Miss May. He suggests you put him on the witness stand, but says he doubts you could do that. According to him, the police and the courts are mere playthings for his amusement. Talk about Bluecorp to learn that they buy and sell �various kinds of information� and that it was named after the color blue. Finally, talk about the painting, and say that you�ve seen it before. Phoenix asks why the painting is on his wall. White tells Phoenix that he is a mere lawyer and punches him. He says again: the police and the courts all do his bidding. White suggests that you ask Grossberg about the painting, so go to the Grossberg Law Offices. --------------------- GROSSBERG LAW OFFICES --------------------- Something seems to be bothering Grossberg when you arrive. Talk about today�s trial. Grossberg says he went because he was concerned about what would happen to Maya. Talk about his refusal, and he says he just needed time to think about it, but he still seems troubled. Talk about Mr. White, and say that what has been bothering you is that big painting. Yesterday, there was a painting hanging on the wall that he had �no intention of parting with�. Today, it�s in Mr. White�s office. Phoenix says he knows White and Grossberg are somehow connected. Say that White is blackmailing Grossberg, and that the painting is proof. Grossberg says that perhaps this is a good time to �get it off his chest�. He says that Redd White makes a living through intimidation, and that Bluecorp excels at finding weaknesses. He himself has been paying them for 15 years due to the �DL-6 incident�. He could not defend Maya because Whit would have destroyed him. Grossberg goes on to say that arresting Redd White will be almost impossible, as he has an iron grip on almost everyone with information. Talk about the DL-6 incident. According to Grossberg, DL-6 is the sorting code given to the case by the police department. He mentions that 15 years ago he received a request from a spirit medium: Misty Fey, Mia and Maya�s mother. Misty Fey had been investigating DL-6 for the police and failed, causing her to be called a fraud. Grossberg cleared her of wrongdoing, but DL-6 remains unsolved. Talk about the reason for blackmail, and Grossberg explains that Misty�s investigation was kept secret, as the police didn�t want anybody to know the lengths they�d had to go to. However, Redd White offered Grossberg money in exchange for information on the DL-6 investigation, and he sold out Misty. The police were mocked, and began searching for the one who revealed them. White came to Grossberg, blackmailing him in exchange for protection. Grossberg says that White controls the law as he sees fit, but if you�re going to challenge him, you should check Mia�s office. Go to the Fey & Co. Law Offices. --------------------- FEY & CO. LAW OFFICES --------------------- Examine the bookcase: it contains the files for every case Mia ever worked on. Choose to look at the A-I file, and select to read it. You�ll discover the file on Misty Fey, Mia and Maya�s mother. It says that she left home leaving only the words �I have tarnished the Fey name.� Determined to discover the people who had humiliated her mother, Mia used her ESP to talk to the dead. She discovered two names: Marvin Grossberg, the lawyer who sold her mother�s information, and the man who gave the information to the press, a parasite who makes his fortune on threats and coercion--mysteriously, the record stops there. However, Mia did know Grossberg. Examine the bookcase again and choose the J-S file. Choose to skim and you�ll discover a collection of reports on suicide: all of them with the word �White� in Mia�s handwriting. White drove all of these people to commit suicide! Phoenix finds the most disturbing one to use in court. The NEWSPAPER CLIPPING is added to the court record. Examine the bookcase one more time and choose to check �em. You�ll discover that the entire W section is missing: W for White! Go to Bluecorp. -------- BLUECORP -------- White tells you to stop bothering him, or a nasty accident may occur. Talk to him about Miss May, and Phoenix decides that talking about her is pointless. You also won�t talk about the night of the murder, or blackmail. To put him on the spot, present the NEWSPAPER CLIPPING. You describe the suicide of the politician, and Mia�s file, after which you should accuse White of blackmailing the politician. Phoenix also accuses him of blackmailing everyone in Mia�s suicide file, and that Bluecorp is built on blackmail. White tells you to search for the murderer instead of him. He tells the secretary to send someone to make you leave. Tell him he�s wrong, and that you should be going after him. Mia was keeping tabs on him, so April May tapped her phone. Then she was murdered, and all her documents about White vanished. He did it! White will go on the interphone with the chief prosecutor and say that he wants to testify, and that you are the murderer! Dick Gumshoe appears to take you into custody. ---------------- DETENTION CENTER ---------------- Maya has just been released, and you�ve taken her place. Phoenix tells her about everything that happened. When Maya asks what she can do, pick the only plausible answer: cheer me on in court. In a short scene, you�ll learn about the limit of three days recently put on trials, and then the trial begins. ******* TRIAL 2 (2SISTERST2) ******* �The police, the courts...they are all playthings for my amusement!�- Redd White There�s a scene in the lobby, in which you�ll meet Edgeworth. Apparently, Phoenix knew him from somewhere before. Also, you�ll learn that you�ll be defending yourself in court. Time to start the trial. Edgeworth makes him opening statement, in which he mentions another witness he is going to call. Raise an objection when you get the chance and ask why this witness was not called before. Edgeworth says that White is a �busy man� and he thought April May�s word would be all that was needed. Redd White comes to the stand. White says that he is the CEO of Bluecorp and that he did not know Mia Fey. He witnessed the murder from the Gatewater Hotel. White will then give his testimony. ----------------------------------------------- WITNESS TESTIMONY: REDD WHITE-WITNESS�S ACCOUNT ----------------------------------------------- It was about 9:00, and White was reading some papers by the window. He heard a bedlam coming from outside and turned to the building across the way. Then he saw him: a spiky-haired man attacking a woman with long hair! Needless to say, the man was you. He called Miss May over at once, and she was also flabbergasted. The victim ran away, but you gave chase! There was a terrible �impaction� and then it was all over. ----------------------------------------------- CROSS-EXAMINATION: REDD WHITE-WITNESS�S ACCOUNT ----------------------------------------------- Press the statement about when Mia ran away. White changes him statement to say that she ran to the left. However, that�s directly opposite to what April May said! Present the MAY TESTIMONY, which says she ran to the left. White says maybe you misheard her, but Phoenix explains using the FLOOR PLANS: if Mia had run left, she would have been running directly away from her only escape route! You now have to explain the contradiction to the court. Select that both are right, and that there is only one scenario that could explain this: the witness was not viewing the crime from the hotel! He was in the Law Offices of Fey & Co. You now have to use the FLOOR PLANS to show the court where White was standing. You�re trying to accuse White of the murder here, so obviously he was standing where the killer was. Select the red circle with the letter K in the middle and present. If he was watching from that point, he would have seen Mia run to the left. White will testify again to clear up this matter. --------------------------------------------------- WITNESS TESTIMONY: REDD WHITE-SHE RAN TO THE �LEFT� --------------------------------------------------- Miss May�s testimony, and White�s are both correct. When you assaulted the girl, she first ran left, then she was hit. After that, with the last of her strength, she ran right. You chased her and delivered the final blow. That�s what Miss May saw. You hit her twice! --------------------------------------------------- CROSS-EXAMINATION: REDD WHITE-SHE RAN TO THE �LEFT� --------------------------------------------------- The final statement about hitting her twice contradicts the autopdy. Present MIA�S AUTOPSY REPORT to remind white that the victim died from a single blow. Didn�t White say his statements were perfect? Edgeworth tries to get the judge to call a break, but Phoenix stops him, and White must testify again. ---------------------------------------------- WITNESS TESTIMONY: REDD WHITE-THE TWO ACCOUNTS ---------------------------------------------- He looked out the window when he heard that thing fall. The next moment, he saw Mia run to the left. The killer attacked her, but she dodged, turned, and ran for the door. Then you did her in with a single blow. ---------------------------------------------- CROSS-EXAMINATION: REDD WHITE-THE TWO ACCOUNTS ---------------------------------------------- Press the first statement to ask what �that thing� was. White says it was a glass light stand. When Maya asks, say it�s very odd. White will revise his testimony to include the light stand. At the statement about the light stand, present the GLASS SHARDS. There is no way you can know it was a light stand just by seeing the pieces! White says he saw the stand before it fell over, before the victim was attacked. Select that there is a big problemo. White says that he saw the stand through the window of the hotel before it fell. To prove nobody from the hotel could have seen the stand before it fell, present the FLOOR PLANS. Phoenix points out the visible area from the hotel. This area doesn�t contain the light stand. The only place White could have seen the stand before it fell is from inside the Fey & Co. Law Offices! He was at the scene of the crime when the murder took place. Phoenix accuses White of the murder, and Edgeworth starts telling him to confess his crime: the crime of placing the wiretap. Edgeworth explains that White had his secretary, April May, tap the victim�s phone. However, White himself entered the offices to place the wiretap, and saw the light stand then, not at the moment of the murder. White gives a testimony about the wiretap. --------------------------------------------- WITNESS TESTIMONY: REDD WHITE-THE WIRETAPPING --------------------------------------------- It was the beginning of September, a week before the murder. White entered the Fey & Co. Law Offices to place the wiretap. That was when he saw the glass light stand. --------------------------------------------- CROSS-EXAMINATION: REDD WHITE-THE WIRETAPPING --------------------------------------------- As with the bellboy�s testimony earlier, there is nothing you can actually do. Continually press each statement, in order, until Phoenix gives up. Out in the lobby you�ll meet...Mia! Apparently, the shock of seeing you give up in court was enough to awaken Maya�s psychic ability. Mia is being channeled through Maya. Mia tells you not to give up, and that you�ve �already won�. On the other side of the RECEIPT that White wrote Maya�s name on in Mia�s blood is a record of purchase. It�s for a glass light stand from a famous department store...dated one day before the murder! This, of course, is after White placed the wiretap. He couldn�t have seen the glass light stand. The RECEIPT is updated in the court record. Back in court, Phoenix asks for one more chance and Edgeworth agrees. You�ll now be cross-examining the same testimony. At the final statement, present the RECEIPT to prove White wrong. When White entered the law offices a week before the murder, the stand was not there. The trial is about to end, but Edgeworth raises another objection: there is no hard evidence that Phoenix is innocent, and that the trial should be extended for one more day so another inquiry can be made. Object to this, and you say that White is obviously guilty and that there is no need to prolong the trial. The judge denies your objection, but Mia gives you a memo to read. MIA�S MEMO is added to the court record. Present MIA�S MEMO: it�s a list of names, all people White drove to suicide! Mia threatens to give the list to the press if White does not confess the murder. White yells at her to stop, and then finally confesses to killing Mia. The judge declares the defence, Phoenix Wright, NOT GUILTY!!! Enjoy the ending movie for this episode, in which Phoenix becomes head of the Fey & Co. Law Offices, and Maya becomes his assistant. Get ready for the next episode! ############################ EPISODE 3: TURNABOUT SAMURAI (3SAMURAI) ############################ VICTIM: Jack Hammer DEFENDANT: Will Powers ATTORNEY FOR THE DEFENSE: Phoenix Wright ATTORNEY FOR THE PROSECUTION: Miles Edgeworth WITNESS LIST: Wendy Oldbag, Cody Hackins, Sal Manella, Dee Vasquez In this episode, the first and one of only two cases in the game that Phoenix has no personal stake in, a popular TV actor is accused of killing his co-star. Phoenix and Maya must investigate his studio and uncover the seething resentment, threats, and mob involvment lurking beneath the studio�s happy kid�s-show facade. **************** DETECTIVE WORK 1 (3SAMURAIDW1) **************** �What must they think of the Steel Samurai now...�-Will Powers The episode opens with a fight between the Steel Samurai and the Evil Magistrate. After that, you gain control in the newly renamed Wright & Co. Law Offices. ------------------------ WRIGHT & CO. LAW OFFICES ------------------------ Maya describes the Steel Samurai, the most popular TV hero for young people. Phoenix talks about how he hasn�t had a client since his trial, and the scene switches to his bedroom. Maya calls him in the middle of the night. The Steel Samurai killed a villain! Of course this is what he�s supposed to do, but he did it in real life! Phoenix goes to the office the next morning. The news next morning descrides the murder. Will Powers, the actor who played the Steel Samurai, killed Jack Hammer, the actor who played the Evil Magistrate, Steel Samurai�s perpetual nemesis. Hammer�s body was found in the Evil Magistrate costume, pierced with the Samurai Spear. Maya�s cell phone suddenly rings. It�s the Steel Samurai! He�s down at the detention center, so go there. ---------------- DETENTION CENTER ---------------- Here you�ll meet Will Powers. Maya is scared of his face, and Powers explains that he got the Steel Samurai job because he would wear a mask. He didn�t want to wreck kids� dreams. Talk to him about what happened. Powers explains that yesterday morning, the cast arrived at Global Studios to rehearse action scenes. Another rehearsal was scheduled at 5:00, but when everyone arrived, Jack Hammer was found, killed by the Samurai Spear. Talk about the Steel Samurai. Powers explains that he is the lead in a popular kid�s show, walking the streets of Neo Olde Tokyo and doing battle with the Evil Magistrate and his minions, never really defeating the Evil Magistrate. Although he did defeat him this time... Talk about Powers�s alibi. He came to the studios at 9:00, and ran through scenes until noon. Before the 5:00 rehearsal, he went to his dressing room to take a nap. He woke up after 5, and hurried to the studios to find everybody looking shocked. They arrested him, although he was sleeping the whole time. It�s time to check out the crime scene, so head to the studios. ---------------- STUDIO-MAIN GATE ---------------- An angry old woman stops you here. She is the security guard, and is here to make sure �gawkers� don�t get into the studios. Talk about the studios. The security lady mentions that she was once a minor star, and that the studio was much better 10 years ago. Jack Hammer was a star back then as well, but now he�s been forced to play villains. Talk about Will Powers. The lady tells you to not be fooled by his mask, and that he couldn�t act without it. The Steel Samurai was his big break, but nobody knew he would kill Jack Hammer. Maya says they don�t know he�s guilty, so talk about the reason for suspicion. Apparently, the security guard was on duty between 1:00 and 5:00. To get to the studio where the murder took place, you have to go through the security booth. Only one person passed the gate between 1:00 and the time of death, 2:30: Will Powers! Talk about Mr. Hammer. Apparently, Jack Hammer was the ultimate action star, and appeared in several samurai movies. However, there was an accident during filming five years ago, and since then, he�s been forced to play the villain on a children�s program. The lady tells you to go home, and that if you don�t have a letter of request, she can�t be sure Powers sent you. Go to the detention center. ---------------- DETENTION CENTER ---------------- Talk to Powers about his alibi, and you�ll bring up that the security lady saw him. Powers swears he was asleep, and says that maybe the lady only thought she saw him. Talk about the security lady, and Powers tells you about her: she sucks up to all the studio bigwigs, but never lets anybody slip up. He�ll then give you a letter asking for representation. POWERS�S LETTER is added to the court record. Go to the studio main gate. ---------------- STUDIO-MAIN GATE ---------------- Present POWERS�S LETTER to the security guard and it will be removed from the court record. She allows you to pass, but only to the studio, and not the employee area. Maya will find a map of the studios in the guard station. The GUIDEMAP is added to the court record. Go to Outside Studio One. ------------------ OUTSIDE STUDIO ONE ------------------ Detective Gumshoe is standing here. He still thinks you�re a murderer, and says that Edgeworth is very upset. Talk about the investigation. Gumshoe doesn�t want to talk, but after Phoenix asks a bit less directly, he hands over JACK�S AUTOPSY REPORT which goes in the court record. Talk about the reason for arrest. Gumshoe explains that Powers entered studio one, the crime scene, after 1:00. At that time, nobody was in studio one except the victim. The time of death was 2:30, and nobody besides Powers entered the studio before then. With that kind of evidence, the case doesn�t look good. Talk about the security lady, and Gumshoe says she gave him an important piece of evidence. Talk about decisive evidence. According to Gumshoe, the security camera on the welcome gate automatically takes a picture of anyone who walks past, and it took one of Powers heading to the scene. Gumshoe gives you permission to interview some of the employees, so go to the main gate. ---------------- STUDIO-MAIN GATE ---------------- Talk to the security lady about photographic evidence. She didn�t show it to you because it would be more �thrilling� to talk to the detective. She mentions that the gate with the camera is just to the left of where you are, and that she checks the photos every day. Talk about the automatic camera. It can tell when someone walks through the gate and snaps a photo. Also, it records what time the picture was taken. She views all the photos on the guard station computer every day before going home. You can talk about Mr. Hammer and the reason for suspicion if you want, but the lady just rehashes what she already said on those topics. Go to the employee area. ------------- EMPLOYEE AREA ------------- Nobody�s here so you can take a look around. Move left and examine the open grate. The vent is so large a kid could fit through it. Examine the plates on the table to find the remains of yesterday�s lunch: the bones from a t-bone steak. Go to Powers�s dressing room. ------------- DRESSING ROOM ------------- Examine the bag in the bottom-left corner. Maya finds a CARDKEY which you �borrow� and is added to the Court Record. Move to Outside Studio One via the employee area and main gate. ------------------ OUTSIDE STUDIO ONE ------------------ Examine the gate on the right with �1st� written on it. This gate goes to studio one, and the CARDKEY opens the door. While you�re here, examine the camera to find the ID number. Move inside studio one. ----------------- INSIDE STUDIO ONE ----------------- Examine the white tape that outlines where Hammer�s body was found. Phoenix notes that there should be some bloodstains. Examine the camera and Penny Nichols, an assistant at the studio, will show up. Talk to her about the day of the crime to learn she was the only assistant on duty. In the morning, WP (Powers) and Hammer ran through their action scenes. After eating lunch, Hammer went to studio one. Then, she saw Powers go into his dressing room, but didn�t see either of them after. Talk about Will Powers, and you won�t learn much that�s useful. In fact, Powers is still looking guilty. Penny says that something�s been bothering her: apparently, just after noon on the day of the crime, she �sensed� somebody at the studio, someone who didn�t work there. However, if someone had come in, wouldn�t the security lady have noticed them? Talk about sensing someone. You don�t learn anything, so go to the main gate via outside studio one. ---------------- STUDIO-MAIN GATE ---------------- Talk about the assistant�s claim. Phoenix asks if she�s sure Powers was the only one to go through the gate between 1:00 and 2:30. Maya says they have a witness who claims someone else was there. The security lady gets so angry that she leaves. Now that she�s gone, examine the computer in the booth and select to try it. You have to enter some numbers first. First, the number of the camera. If you examined the camera outside the gate, you�ll know the number, so put it in. You�ll get a photo of somebody, not necessarily Will Powers, wearing the Steel Samurai costume, dragging his leg. Printed on the back is the text �Oct 15, 2:00 PM, Photo #2�. That must mean there�s more photo data from that day, but there�s nothing else in the computer. POWERS�S(?) PHOTO is added to the court record. Save your data, the trial is about to begin. ******* Trial 1 (3SAMURAIT1) ******* �I never say anything I don�t mean, mind you!�-Wendy Oldbag In Edgeworth�s opening statement, he says that it is impossible for anyone but Powers to have killed Hammer, and that evidence will point to that fact. Edgeworth then calls Detective Gumshoe to the stand. Gumshoe uses the GUIDEMAP to explain the crime, much like in the last case. First, he points out the locations: the employee area, main gate, and studio one. Only three people were at the studio on the day of the murder: Jack Hammer, Will Powers, and the production assistant. The security lady arrived at 1:00 PM, about when Jack Hammer went to studio one. Later, at 5:00, the staff went to studio one to perform a rehearsal, which was cancelled after Hammer was found killed with the Samurai Spear. Choose to skip it when asked, unless you missed something. The SAMURAI SPEAR is added to the court record. According to Edgeworth, the case is simple if you ask one question: what did the security lady see? Wendy Oldbag, the security lady, comes to testify. After Edgeworth finally gets her to state her name, the testimony begins. ------------------------------------------------- WITNESS TESTIMONY: WENDY OLDBAG-WITNESS�S ACCOUNT ------------------------------------------------- On the day of the murder, Oldbag arrived at the guard station at 1:00 PM. Hammer and the rest had been doing a run-through there since the morning. She had some errands to run that morning, and it was 1:00 when she got there. Oldbag was at the main gate until 5:00. The murder happened at 2:30 PM, and Powers walked by her at 2:00 PM, heading for the studio. ------------------------------------------------- CROSS-EXAMINATION: WENDY OLDBAG-WITNESS�S ACCOUNT ------------------------------------------------- At the statement where Oldbag says it was Powers, present POWERS�S(?) PHOTO. If Oldbag could only identify Powers from the photo, there�s no way to know it was him! Apparently, though, Oldbag has more proof it was powers. She testifies again. ---------------------------------------------------- WITNESS TESTIMONY: WENDY OLDBAG-THE MAN IN THE PHOTO ---------------------------------------------------- Oldbag never says anything she doesn�t mean. That morning, during the runthrough of the action scene, she saw Powers trip and fall. He broke one of the props and sprained his ankle. In the photo, he�s dragging his leg, and that�s how she knew it was him. ---------------------------------------------------- CROSS-EXAMINATION: WENDY OLDBAG-THE MAN IN THE PHOTO ---------------------------------------------------- Press the statement about the broken prop to find that it was the murder weapon, the SAMURAI SPEAR, and that a break in the shaft was fixed with duct tape. The SAMURAI SPEAR is updated in the court record. After this, continually press statements until the judge is sure that Powers is in the photo. Object to this, and Phoenix points out that nowhere in the photo can Will Powers be seen. The judge admits there is a possibility that someone not on camera killed Jack Hammer. Edgeworth asks Oldbag to continue her account. -------------------------------------------------------- WITNESS TESTIMONY: WENDY OLDBAG-WITNESS�S ACCOUNT, CONT. -------------------------------------------------------- The time of Hammer�s death was 2:30, and the only person she saw go to the studio before then was Will Powers. No-one else went there, if they had, she would have seen them. -------------------------------------------------------- CROSS-EXAMINATION: WENDY OLDBAG-WITNESS�S ACCOUNT, CONT. -------------------------------------------------------- If you�ll remember, POWERS�S(?) PHOTO has the words �Photo #2� written on the back. However, if it was the only photo, it would have been Photo #1. Present POWERS�S(?) PHOTO at the final statement (�If they had, I would have seen them�) to bring this up. This shows that two people entered studio one that day, and only Oldbag could have erased the other photo. Oldbag gives another testimony. ------------------------------------------------ WITNESS TESTIMONY: WENDY OLDBAG-THE OTHER PERSON ------------------------------------------------ Every day, after Oldbag finishes her guard duties, she has one other job to do. She goes through the photos on the security computer and checks them, throwing out any that aren�t suspicious looking. She remembers throwing out one photo that day! ------------------------------------------------ CROSS-EXAMINATION: WENDY OLDBAG-THE OTHER PERSON ------------------------------------------------ Press the statement in which Oldbag says she remembers throwing out a photo, and Phoenix asks who was in it. Oldbag says it was a Steel Samurai fanboy. Often, they try to sneak into rehearsals, and one was there that day. She said no-one else could get in, but there�s a drain that leads to the employee area big enough for a kid to fit through. That�s where they come in. In the photo Oldbag erased was a young boy, and although it would be very hard for a boy to hold the Samurai Spear, he�s still a suspect. The court takes a five minute recess. In a scene, Powers says that anyone could have stolen his Steel Samurai costume, and Phoenix says they have to prolong the trial by targeting someone else. Back in court, Edgeworth says nothing has changed, and that nobody but Powers could have commited the crime. However, there is one other person: the security lady, Wendy Oldbag. Since Will Powers is dragging his leg in the photo, whoever was wearing the suit must have seen the runthrough, and known Powers had hurt his ankle. The only one present besides Powers and Hammer was Oldbag! Phoenix goes on to say that Oldbag was by herself and had no alibi. She could have left her post to steal the costume, gone to studio one, killed Hammer, and gone back to her post. She�d have to steal the costume so she could frame Powers. Edgeworth has nothing to say for once, so press further. The same reasoning can be used to point the finger at Powers and Oldbag. Neither of them have a clear motive. Oldbag then brings up the grade- schooler, and Phoenix says he�s not the killer, and that he has proof. The kid could not have entered studio one without a key, and he had no relation to the studios. Present the CARDKEY as proof he didn�t do it. The trial is about to end for the day... ...but Oldbag doesn�t want it to. Apparently, there was something that someone told her not to say. --------------------------------------------------- WITNESS TESTIMONY: WENDY OLDBAG-MY LIPS WERE SEALED --------------------------------------------------- Global Studios wanted her to keep quiet about something. There were other people at the studio on the day of the murder, who said they had nothing to do with it. They told her to just pretend they hadn�t been there, but if she�s getting accused, she won�t let them off. --------------------------------------------------- CROSS-EXAMINATION: WENDY OLDBAG-MY LIPS WERE SEALED --------------------------------------------------- Press the second statement to ask who the other people were. Oldbag identifies them as the producer and director of the Steel Samurai. The director was in the employee area all morning for the runthrough, then went to join the producer for lunch. There was a meeting after that in the trailer at studio two; the studio you get to by going left after the gate. This is the path where the mascot�s head had fallen. Select to take a break, as there is nothing more you can do for now. In light of the new suspects, it�s impossible to pass judgement on Will Powers, so there will be another trial. The episode�s second detective work sequence begins here. **************** DETECTIVE WORK 2 (3SAMURAIDW2) **************** �We�re on the Steel Samurai�s side!�-Maya Fey ------------------------ WRIGHT & CO. LAW OFFICES ------------------------ Back at the office, you get your next goal: find out more about the director and producer. Talk to Maya about what to do and any ideas, then go to the detention center. ---------------- DETENTION CENTER ---------------- Talk to Powers about the fanboy. He says Oldbag is strict with them, but they really love the Steel Samurai, so they sneak past when she�s not looking. Talk about the director to learn that he was there instructing the Steel Samurai and Evil Magistrate on how to move. After Maya scolds Powers on hiding this from them, head to the studio employee area via the main gate. ------------- EMPLOYEE AREA ------------- Penny Nichols is here. She�ll leave to fill in for Oldbag at the guard station, so you can look around. Examine the grate. The fanboy from the day of the murder got in that way, and they covered it up.. Maya asks if she can open it, so select to rip it open. Go to the main gate. ---------------- STUDIO-MAIN GATE ---------------- You�ll meet Penny again here. Talk to her about the studios. She says there�s police everywhere and they won�t let her clean up. She hasn�t even gotten to clean up lunch from the day of the murder. Talk about the fanboy to learn about one particular kid she sees a lot. Apparently, Oldbag has trouble catching him. Talk about the director, and Penny says she didn�t see him because she was in the prop room during the runthrough. They were trying to protect the director, but more the producer: she saved the studios five years ago, and kept them running smoothly. Go to the dressing room via the employee area. ------------- DRESSING ROOM ------------- In here, you�ll meet the leetspeaking director of the Steel Samurai, Sal Manella. Maya will give him inspiration for the sequel to the Steel Samurai: �Pink Princess: Warrior of Little Olde Tokyo�. Talk to him about the day of the crime. After the runthrough, he and the bigwigs had a meeting at studio two. He was so busy he didn�t get to eat lunch. He was in the meeting from 12:00 to 4:00, which gives him an alibi. Talk about the producer to find out that her name is Dee Vasquez, and that she saved Global Studios from bankruptcy. She also produced the Steel Samurai. Talk about the bigwigs. Apparently, they�re nobody special: the network boss, sponsors, production guys. They arrived at the studios for the meeting at noon, and Manella was with them the entire time, so they could be witnesses to back up his alibi. Go to outside studio one via the employee area and main gate. ------------------ OUTSIDE STUDIO ONE ------------------ Gumshoe is tied up with paperwork after the trial, which gives you an opportunity to check out studio two. Go there. ------------------ OUTSIDE STUDIO TWO ------------------ An odd noise is coming from the trailer, but it�s locked. There might be a key at the main guard station. While you�re here, note some important things: the van, the incinerator, and the plates on the table. Go to the main gate via outside studio one. ---------------- STUDIO-MAIN GATE ---------------- Oldbag is back, and none too happy about you getting her arrested. Apparently, the police tried to make her wear the Steel Samurai costume, but she couldn�t and they let her go. Talk to her about the fanboy. She says she�ll �take him down�. Talk about the director, et al--she�s taking him down too. Obviously in this state she won�t let you into the guard station, so go to the employee area. ------------- EMPLOYEE AREA ------------- The fanboy appears and introduces himself as Cody Hackins. Talk to him about the Steel Samurai. He and Maya argue for a moment, but nothing much happens. Talk about what happened. Cody says that the Steel Samurai �always wins� and that he saw everything, but �no way is he telling you losers�. As he runs, he knocks something off the table: an EMPTY BOTTLE which is added to the court record. Go to the main gate. ---------------- STUDIO-MAIN GATE ---------------- Oldbag is occupied chasing after Cody, so examine the key rack in the guard station to add the TRAILER KEY to the court record. Go to studio two via outside studio one. ------------------ OUTSIDE STUDIO TWO ------------------ Examine the trailer door to unlock it with the TRAILER KEY. Move to the trailer. ------- TRAILER ------- Inside, you�ll meet Dee Vasquez, the producer. No matter what you talk to her about, she�ll ask for the script to episode 13 of the Steel Samurai. If you talk to her about the director, she�ll give you VASQUEZ�S MEMO, asking Sal Manella for the script, which goes in the court record. If you examine the posters on the wall, you�ll see some of Jack Hammer�s samurai movies. Move to the dressing room via outside studio two, outside studio one, the main gate, and the employee area. ------------- DRESSING ROOM ------------- Show VASQUEZ�S MEMO to Manella, but he can�t seem to find the script to episode 13. Maya suggests that it would be faster to look everywhere he might have been. Go to studio one via the employee area, main gate and outside studio one. ----------------- INSIDE STUDIO ONE ----------------- The most likely place for a director is a director�s chair, right? Examine the chair to get the SCRIPT for episode 13 in the court record. Go to the trailer via outside studio one and outside studio two. ------- TRAILER ------- Give Vasquez the SCRIPT. She�ll relent and talk about the day of the murder. There was a meeting from noon until 4:00, and she claims it was impossible for anybody from the trailer to go to studio one because the path was blocked. Talk about the blocked path. Vasquez explains that the head of Mr. Monkey, the mascot, fell of in the wind and landed in the path. The head wasn�t moved out of the way until 4:00, well after the time of death. Everyone in the trailer was stuck there during the murder and could not have gone to studio one. Maya points out that the head could have fallen after the murder, and Vasquez takes you outside studio one to explain. ------------------ OUTSIDE STUDIO ONE ------------------ According to Vasquez, when the head is functioning normally, it announces the time in ooks: one ook per hour. The clock inside is stopped at 2:15, before the time of death. MR. MONKEY�S HEAD is added to the court record. There�s nothing much you can do now, so go to the Wright & Co. Law Offices via the main gate. ------------------------ WRIGHT & CO. LAW OFFICES ------------------------ Just when things are looking grim, Maya calls Mia in to save the day! Mia reminds you that you still have one lead: Cody Hackins. All you have to do is find a way to get him on your side. Talk about what to do and any ideas, then go to the studio main gate. ---------------- STUDIO-MAIN GATE ---------------- Wendy Oldbag is here, huffing and puffing after chasing Cody. She says she has a �hostage� now. Talk about the fanboy, she�s still very violent. Talk about the director. Oldbag changes the subject: she says that before she �goes� she�d like to visit the place where Hammer died. Talk about the hostage. It seems to be something Cody would come back for, so Mia suggests that you can trade for it. Give her the CARDKEY so she can visit the site of Hammer�s death and she�ll give you the hostage: a STEEL SAMURAI CARD which is traded for the CARDKEY in the court record. Go to the dressing room via the employee area. ------------- DRESSING ROOM ------------- If you talk to Cody about the Steel Samurai or what happened, he won�t talk. Give him the STEEL SAMURAI CARD. It doesn�t work, he has a double of that card, and wants a really rare card before he�ll tell you anything. Move to the trailer via the employee area, main gate, outside studio one and outside studio two. ------- TRAILER ------- Talk to Penny about the fanboy to get her thoughts on Oldbag�s chase. Talk about Mr. Hammer, and you�ll learn that his popularity is waning because of �what happened�. Talk about what happened and Penny won�t say anything. Present the STEEL SAMURAI CARD and agree to trade to get a URP CARD (Ultra Rare Premium). Move to the dressing room via outside studio two, outside studio one, the main gate, and the employee area. ------------- DRESSING ROOM ------------- Give Cody the URP CARD and he�ll finally agree to talk. Talk about the Steel Samurai. Cody asks what your favorite thing about the Steel Samurai is. Say it�s his fighting skills. Cody will give you his Steel Samurai fan album, which he calls PATH TO GLORY, for the court record. Talk about what happened: looks like he�s about ready to spill. Talk about what he saw. Cody says he got to the studio around 2:00, through the back woods so Oldbag wouldn�t catch him. He got lost and was in the woods for half an hour before he found the studio. After that, he saw the Steel Samurai kill a bad guy! It happened so fast, he got scared and went home. Phoenix and Mia agree that it would be better not to call Cody as a witness in court. However, Detective Gumshoe was there and saw everything, and Cody will be taking the stand tomorrow. Of course this means you�re pretty much screwed in the trial. Mia asks you if you really believe Mr. Powers is innocent. Say you believe, and save your data before the trial resumes. ******* TRIAL 2 (3SAMURAIT2) ******* �The Steel Samurai always wins! Always!�-Cody Hackins Edgeworth begins by saying he has evidence to present that will prove nobody else at the studio was involved in the murder. He calls his first witness, Sal Manella. After yet another harrowing �name and profession� segment, Manella gives his testimony. ------------------------------------------------ WITNESS TESTIMONY: SAL MANELLA-WITNESS�S ACCOUNT ------------------------------------------------ Manella was at the studios from around 9:00 in the morning. During the morning, he was at the action-scene runthrough, which took a lot more time that he thought it would. He heard that everyone else ate lunch in the employee area, but he had a meeting in the studio two trailer, so he ended up skipping lunch. He was in the meeting until around 4:00. During the meeting, he�s pretty sure no-one left their chairs. ------------------------------------------------ CROSS-EXAMINATION: SAL MANELLA-WITNESS�S ACCOUNT ------------------------------------------------ Remember from the investigation that two plates were found at the table outside studio two. This means somebody did eat lunch. Press the statement in which Manella says he skipped lunch. When Mia asks, say it�s contradictory. Manella says that he brought it to the trailer and thought he could eat it later, and that he wolfed it down during a fifteen-minute break in the meeting. Now that you know this, press the statement in which Manella says no-one left their chairs. His statement about a break contradicts this. Select to press harder, and Manella will testify about the break. ---------------------------------------- WITNESS TESTIMONY: SAL MANELLA-THE BREAK ---------------------------------------- They did take a break, but it was only fifteen minutes! Not enough time to commit murder in studio one. Barely enough to eat a T-bone steak! ---------------------------------------- CROSS-EXAMINATION: SAL MANELLA-THE BREAK ---------------------------------------- Press all of the first three statements. Edgeworth says that this questioning is pointless, and that nobody in the trailer could have gone to studio one. The judge asks if you claim somebody from the trailer went to studio one. To avoid losing an exclamation point, say it�s impossible. Edgeworth explains about Mr. Monkey�s head. Manella is relieved from the stand, and Edgeworth says he has another witness. Court takes a recess, and after an inspirational scene in the lobby, Edgeworth calls Cody Hackins to the stand. Yet again, he can�t get his witness to state his name and profession. Cody says he was at Global Studios on the day of the murder. CODY�S CAMERA is added to the court record before the testimony. ------------------------------------------------- WITNESS TESTIMONY: CODY HACKINS-WITNESS�S ACCOUNT ------------------------------------------------- Cody wanted to see a Steel Samurai rehearsal, just once. He found a map on the internet, and went to the studios that day. He went through the woods, off the path, so the old lady wouldn�t catch him. He was going for the studio, but got lost along the way for about 30 minutes. When he came out by the studio, there was the Steel Samurai! It totally rocked! Right before his eyes, out came the bad guy, and of course, the Steel Samurai took him down! If he�d had his camera, that would have been the time for a shot. Anyway, he couldn�t get into the studio, so he went home. ------------------------------------------------- CROSS-EXAMINATION: CODY HACKINS-WITNESS�S ACCOUNT ------------------------------------------------- The statement at issue is the one that mentions his camera. According to Cody, he always has it, and yet, at the prime time for a shot, he didn�t! Present CODY�S CAMERA at that statement to prove this. Apparently, Cody didn�t take a picture because he was too busy watching. He will testify again. ------------------------------------------ WITNESS TESTIMONY: CODY HACKINS-WHAT I SAW ------------------------------------------ Cody had his camera with him, but he was glued to the action and couldn�t take his eyes off it. The Steel Samurai went for the bad guy, and the bad guy stopped moving. The Steel Samurai rules! ------------------------------------------ CROSS-EXAMINATION: CODY HACKINS-WHAT I SAW ------------------------------------------ Press the second to last and most vague of the statements (�the bad guy stopped moving�), and select to press him harder when prompted. Cody�s vague description suggests that he didn�t watch the final blow of the fight, even though he was �glued to the action�. The judge asks you why such a fan of the Steel Samurai would not have watched the best part of a real-life fight. Select to show evidence. The only other thing Cody would have been looking at during the fight was his camera, which he was trying to figure out how to use! Present CODY�S CAMERA, proving that the only reason he looked away was that he was trying to take a picture. Phoenix requests that Cody testify again. ----------------------------------------- WITNESS TESTIMONY: CODY HACKINS-NO PHOTO? ----------------------------------------- The Steel Samurai had just escaped from the clutches of the villain, so Cody held up his camera to take a picture. The lens wouldn�t open, though, so he missed it. That�s all that happened. Yup. ----------------------------------------- CROSS-EXAMINATION: CODY HACKINS-NO PHOTO? ----------------------------------------- Press the final statement, in which Cody says that�s all that happened, and select to press him hard. Instead of not getting to take a picture, he took one, and for some reason deleted it. This adds a new statement: Cody took a few shots, bu they were too late, so he erased them. Press the new statement, and Phoenix asks why Cody would erase a picture of the Steel Samurai victorious. Cody says he wouldn�t want to keep a picture like that. Present PATH TO GLORY, the fan album, at the same statement, and Phoenix says that with his perfect record of final blow shots, it�s hard to believe he would erase one! The judge asks why he would erase them. There�s only one plausible explanation: there was no killing blow, because Steel Samurai didn�t win the fight! For Cody, it was impossible for the Steel Samurai to lose. He witnessed a bad guy defeating his hero, erased the photos and lied about ever taking them. He couldn�t handle the truth. Cody admits you�re right: the Steel Samurai, not the bad guy, was the one that fell. When Edgeworth asks what�s going on, say that Steel Samurai was the victim. In other words, Jack Hammer, not Will Powers, was wearing the costume! Hammer knew about Powers�s injury, and nobody saw him going to studio one, nor was there a photo. Cody says there was one piece of data he saved, a photo on his digital camera. The photo doesn�t look very useful, but Mia seems to think there�s a glaring contradiction. You�ll now be faced with finding the inconsistency in the photo. Look at the top-left: there�s the bottom of a number 2! Place the crosshairs there and present. You now have to show the judge where the true murder took place. Select Studio Two with the crosshairs and hit present. The scene of the crime was not studio one, but studio two! It�s very significant, of course, because the trailer was there! In fact, Will Powers is one of the only people at Global Studios who could not have commited the murder. There was a break in the meeting at 2:15, and Sal Manella and Dee Vasquez were eating steak outside, at the scene of the crime! The path was blocked at 2:15, so Hammer must have gone before then. He stole the costume from Powers and went to Studio Two. However, now you have to prove he stole the costume. Say you have proof, and present the EMPTY BOTTLE. The label reads �sleeping pills� and it was found on the table where Powers and Hammer ate lunch. Powers spent the afternoon asleep because Hammer drugged him! Phoenix then mentions an idea. Select to fingerprint the bottle to give the EMPTY BOTTLE to the judge. Court is adjourned, and Phoenix has to find out why Hammer stole the costume and went to studio two. After a scene in the lobby, the final detective work sequence begins. **************** DETECTIVE WORK 3 (3SAMURAIDW3) **************** �Would he have let me run his life for five years over a mere accident?�-Dee Vasquez ------------------------ WRIGHT & CO. LAW OFFICES ------------------------ Mia has turned back into Maya again, and you have to find out why Hammer did what he did quickly. Under the new legal system, the trial can last only one more day before WP is automatically guilty. Talk about the Steel Samurai to rehash what you need to find out. Talk about the director�s alibi: it�s pretty obvious, due to the circumstances, that either Manella or Vasquez was the killer. Talk about any ideas, then go to the detention center. ---------------- DETENTION CENTER ---------------- Talk to Powers about producer Vasquez. Powers says she�s well respected in the industry, and that nobody questions her because she steadily creates hits. Talk about director Manella. He used to direct straight- to-video, but Vasquez brought him the idea for Steel Samurai, and now he�s famous, but under Vasquez�s control. Talk about Mr. Hammer, and Maya asks why he disappeared from the limelight five years ago. He used to be Powers�s role model, but stopped taking big roles and began appearing in Global�s productions. Incidentally, five years ago was when Vasquez arrived at Global Studios. Go to the Main Gate. ---------------- STUDIO-MAIN GATE ---------------- Oldbag is not in high spirits. Talk about Vasquez. Apparently, she always gets her way because the bigwigs love her, and Oldbag�s not supposed to talk about her. Talk about Manella to learn that he is soft and Vasquez treats him like dirt. Talk about Mr. Hammer. Oldbag gets very angry when you ask, and says it�s impossible for him to be a common criminal. Go to the employee area. ------------- EMPLOYEE AREA ------------- Dick Gumshoe shows up to stop you from touching any evidence, then reveals that he�s here to examine the plate on the table for traces of sleeping pills. Talk about the plate. Gumshoe says he�s going to test it with a special fluid that would change color on contact with sleeping pills. The test reveals that there were indeed sleeping pills on the plate, and the STEAK PLATE is added to the court record. Talk about the investigation. Gumshoe tells you it�s a total mess, that the investigators are split between the case against Powers and a different suspect. Gumshoe says he doesn�t buy the case against Powers anymore, which is a good sign. Talk about Prosecutor Edgeworth. Gumshoe mentions that Edgeworth squeezed a paper cup full of coffee, and this leads Phoenix to ask about the bottle. Gumshoe gives you the EMPTY BOTTLE and tells you that tests showed Jack Hammer�s prints on the bottle. Go to the dressing room. ------------- DRESSING ROOM ------------- Penny Nichols is in here cleaning up the room because �WP won�t be using it anymore.� She then tells you that this week is the last episode of the Steel Samurai. Talk about Mr. Hammer to learn that some sort of accident happened during filming five years ago, and that Vasquez used it to blackmail Hammer. Talk about the last episode to learn that the show can�t continue without Hammer as the Evil Magistrate, and that Global Studios is going to stop making kid�s shows. Talk about studio policy to learn that the bigwigs want to forget this happened. Maya tells Penny about all the kids who will be heartbroken, but Penny thinks they�ll find a new hero. Phoenix thinks evidence is called for, so present the one piece of evidence you have that will show her how much the kids care: Cody�s fan album, PATH TO GLORY. Penny believes you�re right and ask what she can do. Phoenix says she can tell them about the incident five years ago that wrecked Hammer�s career. Talk about five years ago. Penny explains that someone died while filming a scene, and although it was an accident, it was Hammer�s fault. She then says to ask Oldbag more about it. Go to the main gate via the employee area. ---------------- STUDIO-MAIN GATE ---------------- Talk to Oldbag about five years ago. Oldbag gets mad that you�re dredging up dirt, and asks for proof that Jack Hammer stole the Steel Samurai costume. Say you have proof and present the same evidence that worked in court: the EMPTY BOTTLE. This doesn�t prove that Hammer used the pills on Powers, though, so present the STEAK PLATE. Oldbag finally agrees to talk. Five years ago there was a fatal accident, and paparazzi took a photo of it. Vasquz made it better, though. She used her ties to the mafia to silence the press, then became a force at the studios. Oldbag gives you the FIVE-YEAR-OLD PHOTO which is added to the court record. Go to studiot wo via outside studio one. Time to put Vasquez on the spot. ------------------ OUTSIDE STUDIO TWO ------------------ Unfortunately, Vasquez is �watching the clouds� and doesn�t want to answer any questions. Talk about Mr. Hammer: no response. Talk about Will Powers. Nothing happens, but Maya�s �Fey blood� tells her that Vasquez is the killer. Talk about director Manella, still nothing. You only have one thing that can faze her, so present the FIVE-YEAR OLD PHOTO. Vasquez appears surprised, and asks to talk about it inside. Go to the trailer. ------- TRAILER ------- Phoenix accuses Vasquez of blackmailing Hammer and forcing him to work for small change. Vasquez denies this and says that Hammer destroyed his own career. She goes on to insinuate that what you assumed to be an accident was actually murder. Vasquez forces you to hand over the FIVE- YEAR-OLD-PHOTO, and calls in her �professionals� to help her. Just as Phoenix and Maya are about to be �erased�, Detective Gumshoe jumps in to save the day, and forces Vasquez to appear in court tomorrow. Save your data. Time to end this! ******* TRIAL 3 (3SAMURAIT3) ******* �It was Mr. Hammer who was out for blood!�-Phoenix Wright Edgeworth notes the alternate theory you presented yesterday, and says that truth will become clear from the testimonies of those in the trailer. He then calls Dee Vasquez to testify. After Edgeworth actually gets her to immediately say her name and profession, she testifies. ---------------------------------------------------- WITNESS TESTIMONY: DEE VASQUEZ-THE DAY OF THE MURDER ---------------------------------------------------- Vasquez entered the trailer a little before noon. The meeting began at 12:00 sharp and ended at 4:00. There was a rehearsal afterwards, so they went to studio one. She was fatigued, so she had Sal take her. There was a 15-minute break in the meeting at 2:30, during which she and Sal ate T-bone steaks in front of the trailer. They found Hammer�s body later, when they all went to studio one. The judge asks about the �I had Sal take me� part, and Vasquez said they took the van. The VAN is added to the court record, and the cross- examination begins. ---------------------------------------------------- CROSS-EXAMINATION: DEE VASQUEZ-THE DAY OF THE MURDER ---------------------------------------------------- The most suspicious thing in earlier testimonies has proved to be the eating of T-bone steak, so press the statement in which Vasquez mentions this. No good--Phoenix needs some evidence to prove she didn�t eat the steak and had time to commit murder. Remember from your investigation of studio two that there were plates on the table. However, there was something odd about the plates: there were no bones! You can�t eat a T-bone steak and leave no bones, so present the STEAK PLATE (on it is a large bone) to prove this. Phoenix says he knows how you can leave no bone after eating a T-bone steak. Select the only meaningful answer: that she didn�t eat the steak, but burned it in the incinerator. You now have to say what she was doing instead. Of course, she was meeting the Steel Samurai. As Vasquez left the trailer, intending to eat her steak, she ran into Jack Hammer, wearing the Steel Samurai costume. Then, she killed him! Vasquez says that if you�re going to say she did it, then she�ll face you in a battle of wits. Vasquez says that she is of �petite stature� and could not possibly wield the heavy SAMURAI SPEAR. When prompted to reply, agree and say she couldn�t. However, that doesn�t mean she couldn�t have done it: the spear was not the murder weapon! You now have to prove this. Recall that the SAMURAI SPEAR was broken the morning before the murder, and that Wendy Oldbag fixed the shaft with duct tape. It�s not possible to use something so flimsy to pierce the chest of a man wearing a heavy costume! Present the SAMURAI SPEAR to prove it. Vasquez angrily asks what was the murder weapon if it wasn�t the spear. Select that you can tell them, and you�ll have to present the true murder weapon. Remember another death that happened in just about the same place: that�s right, the one in which Hammer was involved. Present the FIVE-YEAR OLD PHOTO. The fencepost pierced Hammer�s chest! Phoenix describes the situation in detail. It�s 2:30 on the day of the crime. Dee Vasquez meets Jack Hammer outside the studio two trailer, and pushes Hammer off the stairs onto the fence, exactly like what happened five years ago. Edgeworth and Vasquez bring up another problem: how could she have carried the body to studio one and placed it in the Evil Magistrate�s outfit during a break that was only fifteen minutes long? Say that she had another way, and present the best mode of transportation in the court record: the VAN. Vasquez used the VAN to carry the body to studio one, and placed the body in the costume before anybody else arrived. Edgeworth says that Sal Manella drove the van. When asked, say that Manella was a conspirator. Vasqeuz had to dispose of the body, change the costumes, and destroy the Steel Samurai outfit: she couldn�t have done it alone. The costume was covered in Hammer�s blood, so Vasquez and Manella burned it in that ever-useful incinerator. Upon Phoenix finishing this accusation, Vasquez appears to admit defeat, throwing the courtroom into awkward confusion. Vasquez then says that you have only proved that she could have done it, and not that she did do it. She tells you that you don�t have decisive proof. Edgeworth doesn�t seem too sure about things, but Vasquez tries to leave. Force her to testify again! Vasquez tells you it�s a dead end, and the judge tries to end the cross- examination, but an objection is raised by none other than Edgeworth! He forces Vasquez to testify about what happened after she found the body. Apparently, Edgeworth�s finally realized she�s guilty. ----------------------------------------------------- WITNESS TESTIMONY: DEE VASQUEZ-AFTER FINDING THE BODY ----------------------------------------------------- Vasquez was with Sal and Oldbag when they found the body. The assistant was there too, and the only one absent was Will Powers. Vasquez called the police, and then Powers showed up. Oldbag was agitated, and pointed at Powers, saying, �he did it!�. Vasquez asked to be left out of the proceedings. She went back to the trailer to get her script and production notes, then went home. ----------------------------------------------------- CROSS-EXAMINATION: DEE VASQUEZ-AFTER FINDING THE BODY ----------------------------------------------------- Press the statement about the script and production notes, and Vasquez explains that they�re valuable and she didn�t want them stolen. Press harder, and Phoenix asks why she didn�t bring her notes to a rehearsal. Vasquez thought they wouldn�t be able to rehearse anything because of the murder. Edgeworth raises an objection, though. Edgeworth says this means Vasquez would have had to know about the murder before going to studio one for the rehearsal. Everybody is surprised that the prosecution is supporting the defence�s case, and Vasquez must explain. A statement is added to her testimony saying that she knew Hammer was injured and couldn�t do any scenes. Now that you worked so hard to get that statement to appear, it�s obvious you have to do something with it, so press it. Apparently Sal Manella told Vasquez that Hammer was injured. Wait a minute, though! It wasn�t Hammer who was injured, it was Powers! Present POWERS�S(?) PHOTO to bring up this contradiction. Vasquez says Sal must have gotten it wrong, but Phoenix explains that Manella was there when Powers was injured, so he would have known. Say that Vasquez saw Hammer limping, while he prentended to be Powers. He was only limping after he put on the costume and went to the scene of the crime. This proves that Vasquez saw him limping just before he died, and thus, that she was there when he was killed! It�s not over yet. Vasquez needs one more thing: a motive. Say that you can prove it, and you�ll have to present evidence. The piece of evidence most relevant to any motives in this case is the FIVE-YEAR-OLD PHOTO, so present that. This is a photo of the incident that Vasquez held over Hammer and used to blackmail him. Phoenix can safely make this accusation now that Vasquez has no mafia goons with her. However, as the judge points out, this would only be evidence if Hammer had killed Vasquez. In fact, Vasquez would have no reason to kill a source of income. You now have to explain Vasquez�s motives. You might be tempted to show evidence, but instead, select that she had no motive. It was Hammer that drugged powers, stole the costume, tricked Oldbag, and tried to kill Vasquez. She had merely pushed him off the stairs in self-defence! Vasquez finally confesses, and we get a short scene in which a man named Manuel is killed by Hammer, five years ago. The judge declares Will Powers NOT GUILTY!!! It�s still not over, though. In the lobby, Powers asks Phoenix why Hammer would want to frame him. Select to show evidence, and present PATH TO GLORY. Hammer wanted to frame Powers because Powers was the Steel Samurai, beloved by kids, and Hammer was playing the villain in a kid�s show. Enjoy the ending cutscene for this case, in which Edgeworth once again claims to know Phoenix, and the Pink Princess is introduced. An even more intense trial is coming up, so get ready! ############################# EPISODE 4: TURNABOUT GOODBYES (4GOODBYES) ############################# VICTIM: Robert Hammond DEFENDANT: Miles Edgeworth ATTORNEY FOR THE DEFENSE: Phoenix Wright ATTORNEY FOR THE PROSECUTION: Manfred von Karma WITNESS LIST: Dick Gumshoe, Lotta Hart, Boat Shop Caretaker, Larry Butz, Polly the Parrot, Miles Edgeworth You read that right: the defendant this time around is Miles Edgeworth. In the opening scene he shoots a man on a boat in the middle of a lake: or does he? Phoenix and Maya�s investigation of this case will lead to the mysterious DL-6 incident, and involve such misadventures as a search for a lake monster, cross-examination of a parrot, and a trial against one of the most evil prosecutors in the business. All this leads up the high-tension final trial, my personal favorite sequence in the entire game. **************** DETECTIVE WORK 1 (4GOODBYESDW1) **************** �Prove that badge you wear isn�t just some fancy piece of metal!�-Dick Gumshoe The episode opens with a scene of two men on a boat, one of whom is Miles Edgeworth who may or may not have shot the other one. After that, the detective work sequence starts at the Wright & Co. Law Offices. ------------------------ WRIGHT & CO. LAW OFFICES ------------------------ Maya is looking for a good waterfall in the area so she can continue her spirit medium training. Phoenix suggests she just take a cold shower, and she runs off. The TV then plays a news report about �Gourdy� a large, unidentified animal found in nearby Gourd Lake. The news then switches to the murder on Gourd Lake. The body of a man was found in the lake early this morning, and police have arrested Miles Edgeworth as the suspect. Phoenix tells Maya, who says they should go find out about it. Talk to her about what to do and any ideas, then go to the detention center. ---------------- DETENTION CENTER ---------------- Here, you�ll meet Edgeworth, who�s not in a good mood. Talk to him about what happened. He asks what you�ll do about it. Maya says you�ll help him, but Edgeworth doesn�t want you to since you�re a novice. Talk about Gourd Lake to ask him why he was down there. Edgeworth relents and says he went to see Gourdy. It seems Edgeworth doesn�t want your help, so present the ATTORNEY�S BADGE. Phoenix asks Edgeworth to let him defend him, but Edgeworth still doesn�t want you to. Apparently, though, every defence attorney he�s talked to has turned him down. Talk about did you do it. Edgeworth tells Phoenix to think what he will, but requests that he stay out of the case. Go to the Gourd Lake Entrance. ------------------- GOURD LAKE ENTRANCE ------------------- There are some police walking around, including Detective Gumshoe, who is chewing out his men about the lack of good clues. He seems quite ready to help you, although he seems unhappy that Edgeworth hasn�t asked you to defend him. Talk about what happened. Apparently, 15 minutes after midnight, there was a boat on Gourd Lake with two men in it. One of them, Edgeworth, shot the other with a pistol, and a cop on the scene arrested him. Maya asks how he got there so fast, and Gumshoe says there was a witness who made a call. Talk about Edgeworth. Gumshoe fervently denies that he could be a murderer, and that he doesn�t believe the case even though there�s a witness. However, the police are so convinced it was Edgeworth that they�re not even taking the investigation seriously. Talk about the defence request. It�s true that nobody will take Edgeworth�s case. He�s a celebrity, and your reputation would take a big hit if you lost. Also, the case against him is very solid. Gumshoe reminds you about Edgeworth�s help with the Steel Samurai incident, and tells you not to turn your back. He�s mystified, though, that Edgeworth would not want your help. Talk about the witness to learn that their identity is confidential, but they saw everything and were the only witness. Gumshoe is then called off to an investigation brief meeting, and asks if you need to ask him anything first. Ask about the autopsy report. The report hasn�t been made yet, but if you need anything, you can talk to him at the criminal affairs department. He also gives you permission to look inside the park. Go to the public beach. ----------------------- GOURD LAKE PUBLIC BEACH ----------------------- Nobody�s here, so examine the object on the bench near the screen. It turns out it�s a popper, and Maya asks to take it. Select to take it, and the POPPER is added the the court record. Go to gourd lake woods. ---------------- GOURD LAKE WOODS ---------------- On the left-hand screen of this area, examine the camera. The camera is rigged to a device that makes it automatically take pictures at loud noises. Maya tries to set it off, but to no avail. She then remembers the POPPER, and sets it off, removing it from the court record. This sets off the camera snapping pictures, and Lotta Hart shows up to yell at you. Apparently, you used a whole roll of film. Talk about what happened and her name, but she won�t answer because she�s changing the film on her camera. You need something to get her to talk to you. Maybe she�d talk if she knew you were a lawyer? Present the ATTORNEY�S BADGE and Lotta will loosen up. She�s at Gourd Lake to research meteor showers. Talk about what happened, and Lotta says she thinks she might have seen a boat, but couldn�t tell it apart from any others she�s seen. Talk about Lotta to learn that she�s a research student at Country U and came to the lake three days ago to photograph meteors. Talk about the camera to learn that it is programmed to take pictures when it detects loud noises. LOTTA�S CAMERA is added to the court record. Hmm...if the camera is programmed that way, wouldn�t it take pictures on a gunshot? Present LOTTA�S CAMERA to bring this up. Lotta goes back into her car to check her photos and see if there�s one of the murder. For now, go to the criminal affairs department via the public beach and Gourd Lake entrance. --------------------------- CRIMINAL AFFAIRS DEPARTMENT --------------------------- It looks like Gumshoe is out of his meeting, but he doesn�t seem very happy. Talk to him about the victim--they still can�t figure out who he is. Talk about the meeting. Gumshoe says he doesn�t know what to believe anymore, that everyone thinks Edgeworth is guilty and that you need to stand by him. Talk about trusting Edgeworth to learn that he and Gumshoe have a strong �working relationship�. Edgeworth has a good reason for using extreme methods to get a guilty verdict: he trusts the police department�s investigation. Talk about the autopsy report to add the AUTOPSY REPORT to the court record. Maya then asks about the photo of the victim, and seems to recall that she met him a long time ago. Read the AUTOPSY REPORT, then go to Gourd Lake Woods via Gourd Lake entrance and the public beach. ---------------- GOURD LAKE WOODS ---------------- Lotta shows up and announces that she�s found bingo: a photo of the murder! Unfortunately, there�s too much fog to see who�s who. However, the photo reminds Lotta that she�s a witness to the murder, and asks if she should talk to the cops. Pick either answer, it doesn�t matter. Lotta runs off to talk to the police, and the LAKE PHOTO is added to the court record. Go to the public beach. ----------------------- GOURD LAKE PUBLIC BEACH ----------------------- Here, a man in a Santa Claus outfit seems to be mad at Phoenix, until he takes his hood off and is revealed to be Larry Butz from episode 1. Larry is here working his day job as a hot dog salesman, and is wearing the costume on the idea of his new girfriend, Kiyance. Talk to him about what happened to fill him in about the murder on the lake. Larry doesn�t seem interested until he learns about Edgeworth, who he seems to know. Apparently, he and Edgeworth were in grade school together. Talk about Edgeworth, and you�ll learn that Phoenix, Larry, and Edgeworth all used to be friends. Edgeworth was always trying to be like his father, a famous defence attorney. Maya is confused--why did he become a prosecutor? Talk about Samurai Dogs. They used to be �Gourd Dogs� but Kiyance recommended that Larry change the name. They�re very popular, and he�s getting lots of customers since Gourdy was seen. Talk about Gourdy to learn that he�s a giant monster living in the lake. Larry shows you a newspaper article with a photograph. A quote from the person who took the photograph says they heard a loud bang followed by the sound of something falling into the water. The GOURDY ARTICLE is added to the court record. Go to the criminal affairs department via Gourd Lake entrance. --------------------------- CRIMINAL AFFAIRS DEPARTMENT --------------------------- Gumshoe is in the questioning room with Lotta Hart...things don�t look good. Go to the Wright & Co. Law Offices. ------------------------ WRIGHT & CO. LAW OFFICES ------------------------ Maya asks to see the autopsy one more time. Suddenly, she realizes who the man is: a lawyer who used to work with Mia! He worked at Grossberg�s office, so Phoenix thinks it might be a good idea to go there and talk to Grossberg. Go to the Grossberg law offices. --------------------- GROSSBERG LAW OFFICES --------------------- Grossberg greets you, and quickly senses that something is wrong. Talk to him about what happened, and he is as surprised as everybody else to learn that Edgeworth shot somebody. Talk about the painting to learn that he doesn�t think its ever coming back to the office. Present the AUTOPSY REPORT. Grossberg remembers that the man was a lawyer in his office, Robert Hammond. Talk about Robert Hammond to learn that he was the defence attorney in the DL-6 incident, the case where the police were at such a loss that they used Mia and Maya�s mother, a spirit medium, to find the killer. Talk about the DL-6 incident. The DL-6 incident happened 15 years ago. Misty Fey spoke to the late victim, and found a suspect. However, Robert Hammond got the man declared innocent, and the police called Misty a fraud. Maya asks what the case has to do with Edgeworth, and Grossberg reveals that the victim was his father, Gregory Edgeworth! MISTY FEY�S PHOTO is added to the court record. Time to talk to Edgeworth, so go the detention center. ---------------- DETENTION CENTER ---------------- Talk to Edgeworth about what happened and Gourd Lake, and he will not answer either question. Present MISTY FEY�S PHOTO to get him to talk. Edgeworth says that he didn�t want you near the case because he didn�t want you finding out about DL-6. However, now he�s ready to tell you. Talk about the DL-6 incident. The DL-6 incident was when Edgeworth�s father died. Right before his eyes, his father was shot, and he saw it all. A suspect was arrested, the only man who could have killed his father. The spirit medium said the same thing, but the man was proven innocent by Robert Hammond, the victim in the Gourd Lake murder. Edgeworth says that he thought the incident was about to end because the statute of limitations was about to run out. Maya asks what this means, and Phoenix explains that, fifteen years after a case occurs, it legally never happened. DL-6 would have been closed in just three days. Talk about the suspect to learn that he went into hiding after being declared innocent, and that he would be about 50 now. Talk about your father. Gregory Edgeworth was quite a famous defence attorney in his time, but Edgeworth would rather not talk about it. Present the LAKE PHOTO. Phoenix asks if Edgeworth shot Hammond, but Edgeworth says no. He then asks you to defend him, although it �pains� him. Say you will, and Phoenix says he can finally pay Edgeworth back. EDGEWORTH�S REQUEST is added the court record. Suddenly, a small earthquake starts, and Edgeworth curls up on the floor in a ball...he seems to have some kind of huge fear of earthquakes. The questioning is over, so go to the criminal affairs department. --------------------------- CRIMINAL AFFAIRS DEPARTMENT --------------------------- Gumshoe is angry at you for finding Lotta Hart. Talk about Lotta�s testimony. She saw saw Edgeworth fire the pistol, and had a photograph to prove it. You can�t see who�s shooting, but Lotta said she would enlarge the photo, making it easier to tell who�s firing. Talk about tomorrow�s trial. The case seems to be unwinnable, but as Mia always said, if he�s innocent, there�s something that�s been overlooked. Talk about Edgeworth. He wants a public defender, but you already have his request for defence! Present it. Gumshoe starts the paperwork, but remembers the earthquake and says that he was worried about Edgeworth. There�s definitely something with Edgeworth and earthquakes, but it wasn�t there when he and Phoenix were in school together. Anyway, it�s time for the trial to begin! ******* TRIAL 1 (4GOODBYEST1) ******* �Just look at the picture! Clear enough for you?�-Lotta Hart In the lobby, Edgeworth introduces you to the case�s prosecutor, Manfred von Karma, a �god of prosecution� with a 40-year winning streak. He�ll do anything to get a guilty verdict, which sounds a little like Edgeworth, only multiplied by ten. Great. Von Karma was Edgeworth�s teacher, somewhat like what Mia was to you. Speaking of which, Phoenix tells Maya that her sister would be a big help. Maya can�t cal her, though, because she hasn�t been training lately. Time to start the trial. Von Karma appears to have the judge completely terrified: yet another thing working against you. In von Karma�s opening statement, he says that decisive evidence and a decisive witness are all that are needed to prove Edgeworth guilty. He then calls Dick Gumshoe, who describes the incident. The murder happened around midnight on Christmas Eve, and there was one boat in the middle of the lake, with two men in it. There was a woman camping on the edge of the lake, who heard two gunshots at 12:10 AM. Then the boat moved back to the rental shop. The OVERHEAD MAP is added to the court record. Gumshoe then gives a testimony on the arrest. ------------------------------------------------------- WITNESS TESTIMONY: DICK GUMSHOE-THE ARREST OF EDGEWORTH ------------------------------------------------------- A man called into the station 30 minutes after midnight, and they headed to the crime scene as fast as they could. That�s where they found Edgeworth. Gumshoe didn�t suspect anything, but they found a body in the lake next morning, so they had to arrest him. ------------------------------------------------------- CROSS-EXAMINATION: DICK GUMSHOE-THE ARREST OF EDGEWORTH ------------------------------------------------------- The weakest statement appears to be the last one, in which they arrest Mr. Edgeworth. Why would he have been immediately linked to the body? Press the final statement, and Gumshoe explains they arrested him because they found the murder weapon, a pistol, in the boat. A statement is added to the testimony saying that the weapon in the boat was decisive evidence, although he doesn�t explain why. Press the new statement to ask what about the pistol made it evidence. There were fingerprints on the gun, clearly from Edgeworth�s right hand. The PISTOL is added to the court record. The next statement to press is the one about the body found in the lake. Phoenix asks if any clues were found on the body, and Gumshoe shows a single PISTOL BULLET that is added to the court record. Von Karma asks if the bullet from the body was fired from the pistol, and Gumshoe says it was, as the ballistic markings match. Maya doesn�t know what this means, so von Karma makes the judge explain. Ballistic markings are distinctive marks left on each bullet as it fires--sort of like a gun�s fingerprints. The evidence is very clearly against Edgeworth, but the judge wants to hear Lotta speak, so von Karma agrees to put her on the stand after a ten-minute break. Phoenix yells at Edgeworth about the prints, and Edgeworth admits that he was in the boat but didn�t shoot him. However, he doesn�t know who did. He says that he heard a gunshot from somewhere close by, then the other man in the boat fell in the water. He can�t say why, but thought the man shot himself. Meanwhile, Maya hasn�t made any progress with Mia, and believes that she�s useless if she can�t call her sister. Phoenix is a nice guy, so tell her you need her there. Maya thinks you�re just making her feel better, that she doesn�t know anything about defence, and is a medium who can�t contact spirits. Trial soon reconvenes, and Lotta is called to testify. ----------------------------------------------- WITNESS TESTIMONY: LOTTA HART-WITNESS�S ACCOUNT ----------------------------------------------- It was Christman Eve, just after midnight, and she was in her car. She heard a bang come from up the lake, looked out the window, and saw two men in a boat. Then there was another bang. There wasn�t anything on the lake but that boat. Von Karma presents the photo of the moment of the murder. He then says that there were no other boats on the lake, so nobody but Edgeworth could have shot Hammond. The judge is about to find Edgeworth guilty, but Phoenix objects. Von Karma says he will only flounder, and then will be held in contempt of court. Von Karma then asks if you claim to have found a contradiction, and when Maya asks, say there was. You are allowed, barely, to cross-examine. ----------------------------------------------- CROSS-EXAMINATION: LOTTA HART-WITNESS�S ACCOUNT ----------------------------------------------- Begin by pressing the first statement. It was just after midnight, so that means it was Christmas day, not Christmas eve. However, this isn�t too important. Press the second statement (�I was in my car�) to learn that Lotta was camping to take pictures for research. Choose to press further, and Pheonix asks Lotta to be more specific about her research. Von Karma objects, and sustains his own objection, saying this is �not relevant�. Press the third statement about the bang from up the lake. This proves that at that time she was not looking at the lake. Press the fourth statement (�two gents in a boat�). She couldn�t see them clearly, but tells you to look at the picture. Press further, and Phoenix brings up that he wasn�t asking her about the photo, bu if she herself saw the two men. Von Karma jumps in and says that she has testified that she saw them. He jumped quick, though--he�s hiding something. Continue in order to press the fifth statement about �another bang�. Lotta was not watching the moment the shot rang out, but von Karma stops you from talking again. What an asshole...and you�ll only grow to hate him more. Press the final statement to ask if Lotta was sure that the boat was the only thing on the lake. She says she�s sure, but you should press further. Lotta says she scanned the whole lake, which is odd, because to do that she would have to be more interested in the lake than she was in the boat. Von Karma objects again, and the judge says that they�ve heard enough. He will have to hold Phoenix in contempt of court if he has any more �outbursts�. The testimony, according to Maya, is very fishy, but the judge is about to make his decision anyway. Suddenly, you are saved by an unknown objection. It was Maya! She says that the testimony stinks, that it�s unclear if she was looking at the lake and that it�s doubtful she saw Edgeworth. She then asks Lotta if she really saw Edgeworth fire the pistol. Lotta swears she did, and the judge declares Phoenix in contempt of court. Suddenly, Maya stops the proceedings again, saying that she made the outburst and that she must leave. Von Karma says it makes no difference, and that all that remains is for the guilty verdict to be declared. Of course you should disagree with this. Phoenix points out that Lotta says she clearly saw Mr. Edgeworth, and that that was not in the testimony. The testimony changes, and you have a right to cross-examine again. Von Karma objects, but the judge overrules him! Finally, the guy shoes some backbone! Maya leaves the court, and cross-examination begins again. ------------------------------------------------- WITNESS TESTIMONY: LOTTA HART-THAT LAST STATEMENT ------------------------------------------------- Lotta saw clear as day that the man on the boat was Edgeworth. ----------------------------------------------- CROSS-EXAMINATION: LOTTA HART-WITNESS�S ACCOUNT ----------------------------------------------- As tempting as it may be, do NOT press this statement, as it will result in a penalty. Perfect. What contradictions are you supposed to find in a testimony of one statement? However, there is something. Check the LAKE PHOTO again. It�s shrouded in fog, and you can�t see the faces of the men. Even on high-quality film, you can�t see through the fog! Lotta could not have identified Edgeworth with her eyes, so present the LAKE PHOTO. Von Karma says he told her not to say that, but now she has said it, and must explain. Lotta now has to testify about the sighting! Yes! You did it! ---------------------------------------------------- WITNESS TESTIMONY: LOTTA HART-HOW EDGEWORTH WAS SEEN ---------------------------------------------------- It was a cold night, and the fog was thick as grits. Once she was finished setting up the camera, she got back in the car, bringing her binoculars with her. When she heard that noise on the lake, she looked with her binoculars. ---------------------------------------------------- CROSS-EXAMINATION: LOTTA HART-HOW EDGEWORTH WAS SEEN ---------------------------------------------------- Lotta was looking for meteor showers, as she mentioned yesterday. Why, then, did she have binoculars and not a telescope? Press the third statement, in which she mentions bringing the binoculars to the car. You will ask that question. Phoenix doubts the camera was there for meteor showers, either. Von Karma thinks that the camera is irrelevant. The judge says that you can keep questioning if it is relevant, and von Karma says there will be consquences if it�s not. Choose to press further, and a new statement is added saying that the camera was there to take pictures of a meteor shower. Press the new statement. Phoenix asks what made Lotta choose Gourd Lake, with its thick fog, to photograph meteors. She says she wasn�t thinking too straight. Now, here�s where you can get her. In the LAKE PHOTO, the camera is pointed directly as the lake. If she was stargazing, it would have been pointed at the sky! Present the LAKE PHOTO. Phoenix says the Lotta was not on the lake to photograph shooting stars, and the judge asks what she was photographing. Well, what else is there on Gourd Lake to take pictures of? That�s right, Gourdy! Select to show evidence, and present the GOURDY ARTICLE. You now have to prove that Lotta was photographing Gourdy. Say you have proof. Remember, Lotta�s camera was set up to take pictures on loud noises. The article about Gourdy states that he made a loud noise when he emerged! The camera was set to photograph Gourdy on this noise. However, Lotta and von Karma make a new objection: what does it matter? The fact that Lotta was photographing Gourdy doesn�t change what she saw. However, that fact that she was hiding it means that it has some kind of significance. Lotta testifies again. --------------------------------------------------- WITNESS TESTIMONY: LOTTA HART-LOTTA�S NEW TESTIMONY --------------------------------------------------- Lotta�s not a research student at a university, she�s an investigative photographer. Imagine what a scoop it would be if she got a picture of that monster! That�s why she was camping out by the lake, but that�s all she was hiding. When she heard the bang she looked straight out at the lake. There wasn�t much else to look at, so she just watched the boat the whole time. She saw a flash near one of the men�s hands, and heard another gunshot. She was looking at the boat the whole time. As the judge reminds you, this is your last chance. If no contradiction is found, Lotta will leave and Edgeworth will be guilty. --------------------------------------------------- CROSS-EXAMINATION: LOTTA HART-LOTTA�S NEW TESTIMONY --------------------------------------------------- There�s a big contradiction in here. When Lotta heard the bang, she looked at the lake. However, she watched the boat the whole time, when she should have been looking for Gourdy! Press the statement where she says this (�There wasn�t much else to look at, so I watched the boat the whole time�). Phoenix says it�s time for some evidence. Go to the same statement and present the GOURDY ARTICLE. Of course, if Lotta heard any noise, she�d scan the lake for signs of Gourdy! She wouldn�t give the boat any thought. She wasn�t looking at the boat! Lotta testified that she saw the boat through binoculars, but she wouldn�t need those to see a boat. She�d need them to look for Gourdy, which is what she was doing. Lotta admits that she wasn�t looking at the boat, but that the photograph is still proof. The judge says they still can�t see who�s shooting. Lotta starts to say something about the photo, but von Karma stops her. However, Phoenix remembers Gumshoe saying that the photo would be enlarged. The enlarged photo must show something bad for von Karma, so make her show the enlargement. Von Karma obviously doesn�t want it to be shown, bu Lotta presents it anyway. They still can�t see who�s firing, though. Regardless, the enlarged LAKE PHOTO is added to the court record. The judge tries to end the trial here, but Phoenix knows there�s a clue. Object to the enlargement, and you�ll have to show what�s strange about it. Look at the man firing the pistol. He�s holding it in his left hand, when prints from a right hand were found on the gun! Place the cursor over the left hand holding the gun and present. You now have to show what evidence it contradicts. Present the PISTOL. The man in the photo is firing with his left hand, but the prints were from Edgeworth�s right hand. This means that Edgeworth could not have fired the gun! The judge points out a problem: if Edgeworth didn�t fire the gun, who did? You now have to show who fired the gun. Remember what Edgeworth said: he thought the man shot himself. Say that it was the victim himself who fired. Von Karma says it couldn�t have been suicide. Examination of Hammond�s wound shows that he was shot from further than a meter away. ROBERT�S AUTOPSY REPORT is updated in the court record. The judge gives his opinion. The situation shows Edgeworth as being the shooter, but prints show it couldn�t have been him. Therefore, court will be suspended for a day so the matter can be investigated. After a short scene in the lobby, Phoenix is given a transcript of Lotta�s testimony. LOTTA�S DEPOSITION is added to the court record. **************** DETECTIVE WORK 2 (4GOODBYESDW2) **************** �Don�t forget DL-6!�-Polly the Parrot ---------------- DETENTION CENTER ---------------- Phoenix goes to see Maya at the Detention Center. She doesn�t know why she shouted, but she did save the trial. Talk about questioning, and Maya says that Gumshoe promised to let her go after being questioned. Also, Phoenix has to pay the bail. Talk about Mia. Maya still can�t get through to her, probably because she stopped her training. Go to the Criminal Affairs Department. --------------------------- CRIMINAL AFFAIRS DEPARTMENT --------------------------- Detective Gumshoe isn�t here, he�s out at the crime scene. One of the other officers tells you he got into a fight with the chief because he wouldn�t build the case against Edgeworth. Go to Gourd Lake Woods via the entrance and public beach. ---------------- GOURD LAKE WOODS ---------------- Gumshoe is here, and doesn�t know how to thank you for the trial today. Talk about tomorrow�s trial. Phoenix asks about von Karma�s strategy, and Gumshoe says he has another witness. During the trial, he said there were two witnesses. Unfortunately, Gumshoe can�t tell you who he is. Talk about Prosecutor Edgeworth. Phoenix asks about Edgeworth�s odd fear of earthquakes. Gumshoe says Edgeworth never talks about himself, but that his becoming a prosecutor and hating crime and earthquakes all started with the DL-6 incident, when his father was shot before his eyes. Talk about Maya Fey. Gumshoe tells you that Edgeworth is extremely grateful for what she did in court, even though he didn�t show it. Also, Edgeworth�s going to post her bail. As Gumshoe recommended, go back to the Detention Center via the public beach and entrance to pick up Maya. ---------------- DETENTION CENTER ---------------- Phoenix tells Maya about Edgeworth posting bail. Talk about what to do and Maya suggests they look around Gourd Lake. Talk about any ideas, then go to the Gourd Lake Entrance. ------------------- GOURD LAKE ENTRANCE ------------------- Lotta is here. She tells you that she did a bit of self-reflection and decided that she should have taken being a witness more seriously. So she�s decided to make it up to you. Talk about today�s trial, and Lotta says she was just convincing herself that she saw something because she wanted to be a witness. Talk about Gourdy. Lotta thinks the trial is �stoking the flames of Gourdy fever� and that her photographs will make her a star. Talk about making it up, and Lotta says she has some information, and will exchange for it. Select �deal� and Lotta tells you she�ll trade for information on Gourdy. Phoenix reluctantly agrees to look for Gourdy, so go to the Gourd Lake public beach. ----------------------- GOURD LAKE PUBLIC BEACH ----------------------- Here you�ll find Larry, as well as a large inflatable Steel Samurai. It was Kiyance�s idea; she got them for free because, as we know, the show�s ended. Talk to Larry about Edgeworth. Larry asks what happened, and Phoenix explains that they got through the first day of court all right, but prospects don�t look good from here. Maya then mentions that Edgeworth�s terrified of earthquakes, and Larry says he wasn�t like that in school. They were only in the same class for a year, though, as Edgeworth transferred right after the DL-6 incident. Talk about the Big Samurai. Larry says he�s had it about a month, but it wasn�t up yesterday because the compressor was busted. The compressor is the little device by the hot dog stand that pumps air into the inflatable samurai. Examine the compressor. Larry says he just got it repaired. Go to the criminal affairs department via the Gourd Lake entrance. --------------------------- CRIMINAL AFFAIRS DEPARTMENT --------------------------- Talk to Gumshoe about the investigation. He says there�s about to be a meeting about Mr. Edgeworth�s motive. His father died in the DL-6 incident, and the man who got the only suspect declared innocent is the victim, Robert Hammond. Talk about Gourdy. Gumshoe is slightly confused until you explain. He then offers to loan you one of the secret weapons for finding evidence. Talk about secret weapons to get three choices: MISSILE, a K-9 police dog; Gumshoe�s personal FISHING POLE; and a METAL DETECTOR. The METAL DETECTOR is the one you want to borrow. However, there are funny scenes if you take MISSILE to the public beach or the FISHING POLE to the woods. Once you have the METAL DETECTOR in the court record, go to the boat rental shop via Gourd Lake Entrance and the public beach. ---------------- BOAT RENTAL SHOP ---------------- When you arrive, the METAL DETECTOR starts reacting to something. Maya goes to look for it in the bushes, and finds an AIR TANK with a broken valve and a string of flags wrapped around it. This will go in the court record. That string of flags looks a lot like Larry�s, so go to the public beach to talk to him about it. ----------------------- GOURD LAKE PUBLIC BEACH ----------------------- Present the AIR TANK to Larry. Phoenix says he wants to ask Larry about it. Select �is it yours?�. Larry asks you why he�d need an air tank, so select �to inflate something�. Larry must have used this to inflate the big Steel Samurai. He explains that his compressor was broken, so he used the air tank to pump air instead. Apparently it didn�t go so well. Select to ask more about the tank. Larry tells you that when he used the air tank to inflate the Steel Samurai, the valve burst off. The tank and samurai flew into the air and landed in Gourd Lake. Talk about the flying air tank. It exploded a week ago, and since then Larry�s been out in a boat every night looking for it. He found it the night before last, on the night of the murder! Larry was there on the night, but went home before midnight, so he didn�t see anything. Phoenix says they�ve solved one mystery. Of course! The flying air tank must have been Gourdy! Go to the woods to tell Lotta about this. ---------------- GOURD LAKE WOODS ---------------- Talk to Lotta about what happened, then talk about Gourdy. Lotta asks if you�ve found Gourdy yet. Say �we found him. Lotta asks for proof, so say you have it and present the AIR TANK. This is Gourdy: when the Samurai flew into the lake, the photo made it look like a monster. Lotta is somewhat dejected, but agrees to talk. Talk about case information. Lotta tells you that the new witness is the caretaker of the boat rental shop. There�s also something else: Lotta�s camera clicked twice on the night of the murder, and although the other photo shows nothing but lake, she gives it to you anyway. The SECOND LAKE PHOTO is added to the court record, after which you should go to the boat rental shop via the public beach. ---------------- BOAT RENTAL SHOP ---------------- You can now go inside the shop, so enter. ----------------- CARETAKER�S SHACK ----------------- The crazy owner of the shop appears, believes you are his children, �Meg� and �Keith�, and asks you to run the shop, which he thinks is a pasta restaurant. His parrot, Polly, also greets you. He subsequently falls asleep. Talk to him about the pasta restaurant. He rants for a while, but says nothing useful. Phoenix believes he must know something about the murder, so talk about the boat rental shop. He still believes he runs the �Wet Noodle� although he gets orders for boats often. This guy has nothing useful to say, so examine his parrot. He won�t talk to Maya, and the caretaker explains that you have to call his name first. The PARROT is added to the court record. The caretaker says Polly can say lots of things if you know the secret words. Talk about Polly. The caretaker says that he can�t remember things very well, so he tells important things to Polly. Maya asks the number of the safe, and Polly tells her: it�s 1228. You have to get him to talk about the murder, so present the ATTORNEY�S BADGE (it worked on Lotta). He recognizes the badge and realizes that you�re not Keith and Meg. Phoenix explains that they�re lawyers investigating a murder. The caretaker says that he�ll help if you promise to run the Wet Noodle. It doesn�t matter what you say, so pick yes or no. You now have to get him to talk to you about the murder (again). Present the LAKE PHOTO, the first one, with the murder in it. He says he saw it and knows all about it. Talk about what you saw. The caretaker says that it was pretty dark, and he heard a bang, so he looked outside. After that, he heard another one. Later, a boat came back, and a young man walked by his window, muttering to himself. He doesn�t remember what he said, though. Phoenix says they should leave, but Maya remembers that she had one more question. She asks Polly, �have we forgotten something?�. Polly speaks a mysterious phrase: �Don�t forget DL-6!� The old caretaker is starting to seem very mysterious. ---------------- BOAT RENTAL SHOP ---------------- Back outside, the old man locked the door. He must have some connection to DL-6, so Phoenix decides to do some more research. Go to the criminal affairs department via the public beach and entrance. --------------------------- CRIMINAL AFFAIRS DEPARTMENT --------------------------- Talk to Gumshoe about the boat caretaker. Maya asks who the old man is, but Gumshoe doesn�t know. He hasn�t been able to get a straight answer out of him either. It�s definitely suspicious. Talk about the DL-6 incident. Gumshoe says he doesn�t know much about DL-6, and that Edgeworth forbade anybody from reading the file. You have to convince him that DL-6 is relevant to the case before you can see the file. Present the PARROT, who knew about the DL-6 incident. The old man must have taught her to say that, so he might have been connected to DL-6! Gumshoe gives you access to the records room so you can find what you need to know. Go to the records room. ------------ RECORDS ROOM ------------ Maya finds the section on DL-6, so all you have to do is tell her what you need to know. Talk about the case summary. December 28, 2001, fifteen years ago the day after tomorrow, the incident took place in the elevator of the district court. At 2:00, there was an earthquake that shut off power to the building. At that time, three people were stuck in an elevator, from which they would not be rescued for five hours. Oxygen was running thin, and they fell unconsious. One of them, Miles Edgeworth�s father, had been shot through the heart. Miles was one of the others in the elevator. Talk about victim data. Gregory Edgeworth was 35 when he was killed, and would have been 50 today had he not died. He lost a case that day, and got in the elevator with his son Miles. Evidence proved that his death wasn�t suicide, and the pistol used to kill him was found in the elevator, fired twice. Talk about suspect data. The suspect would be the man Misty Fey got arrested. The man�s name was Yanni Yogi, a court clerk. He was the third person in the elevator, but was found innocent by Robert Hammond, the victim in the current case. Mr. Yogi was so oxygen-deprived that his brain became damaged, and he lost all memory of the incident. Yogi disappeared after being found innocent. You now know what went on, although you�re still not sure of the effect on Miles. The DL-6 CASE FILE and DL-6 INCIDENT PHOTO are added to the court record. Time for the trial! ******* TRIAL 2 (4GOODBYEST2) ******* �I can�t just sit here and let you call Edgey a murderer!�-Larry Butz Von Karma begins by taking his assholery to a whole new level. He predicts that the trial will end three minutes from now. He then calls the boat shop caretaker to the stand. You don�t know who the old guy is, though, so raise an objection. Apparently, he�s not really sure what his name is. Von Karma explains that he cannot remember farther back than the last several years. -------------------------------------------------------------- WITNESS TESTIMONY: BOAT SHOP CARETAKER-THE NIGHT OF THE MURDER -------------------------------------------------------------- It was the night of the 24th, just after midnight. He was in the restaurant, where he rents boats. Then he heard a bang, looked out the window, and saw a boat floating on the lake. Then, he heard another bang. Just about then, the boat came back to shore, and a man walked by his window. Von Karma doesn�t want you to cross-examine, as usual, but select to do it anyway. Three minutes just passed, and von Karma seems very pissed off. A small victory. -------------------------------------------------------------- CROSS-EXAMINATION: BOAT SHOP CARETAKER-THE NIGHT OF THE MURDER -------------------------------------------------------------- The only statement that is not perfectly clear is the last one, about a a man walking by his window. Press this statement. Phoenix asks if he could make out the man�s face. This adds a statement: the fog was thick, but he could see that it was the defendant, saying, �I can�t believe he�s dead�. Press this new statement. The caretaker says he�s �dead certain� that it was Edgeworth and that he said it. The judge thinks it�s sound evidence. You have to act quickly, so raise an objection. You�ll bring up that it couldn�t have been Edgeworth firing the gun, but von Karma objects, saying that Edgeworth wiped the prints after firing. Von Karma says that everything in the testimony is true. You should raise another objection. Phoenix claims that the caretaker�s word is all they have. Von Karma tells you to prove that the witness is lying. Of course you can�t. The judge sees no reason to prolong the trial, and declares Miles Edgeworth GUILTY!!! NOOOOOOO!!!! Just as he is about to be carted off, somebody shows up to save the day...Larry Butz! Larry tells the judge that he was there on the night of the murder, and just remembered it. He heard the gunshot! Von Karma objects, saying that the verdict has already been decided. Larry says that he was watching from the audience when he realized that something in the testimony was different from what he remembered. He demands to be allowed to testify. Larry couldn�t make things any worse, so Phoenix says they should hear him speak. The judge says that the court�s duty is to prevent an inaccurate verdict, and that every witness should be heard. He withdraws his guilty verdict! Cool! Von Karma is ordered to call Larry to testify after a five minute recess. Phoenix and Edgeworth discuss Larry�s testimony, and Maya asks why Edgeworth�s prints are on the gun. Edgeworth explains that he couldn�t think straight after Hammond fell into the lake. He saw the pistol on the floor of the boat and picked it up without thinking. When court is back in session, Larry gives testimony. ----------------------------------------------------- WITNESS TESTIMONY: LARRY BUTZ-THE NIGHT OF THE MURDER ----------------------------------------------------- That night, Larry was out in a boat on the lake. He was looking for something and he found it, so he quietly slipped the boat back in at the rental dock. Just as he was thinking about going home, he heard a bang. He looked out over the lake, but didn�t notice the boat. After that single gunshot he went home. ----------------------------------------------------- CROSS-EXAMINATION: LARRY BUTZ-THE NIGHT OF THE MURDER ----------------------------------------------------- Larry testified that he heard only one gunshot, which is in direct contradiction to what was said by Lotta Hart yesterday. Present LOTTA�S DEPOSITION at the final statement about the gunshot. Was Larry evven listening? The judge asks Larry if he�s sure he only heard one gunshot. Larry says he�s not. Larry might have missed the other gunshot because he was listening to a radio. Von Karma thinks it�s a waste of time, and the judge asks if you want him to continue the testimony. Select to continue. ---------------------------------------------- WITNESS TESTIMONY: LARRY BUTZ-WHAT LARRY HEARD ---------------------------------------------- It�s lonely, being alone on Christmas eve! That�s why Larry was listening to an all-requests radio show, real booming loud. But he�s sure he heard that gunshot! He remembers exactly what the DJ was saying when he heard it, too. Von Karma says you can�t believe anything Larry says, and that what he heard was probably a drumbeat from the radio. Phoenix objects, saying that Larry said the DJ was talking. This means that no music was playing when he heard the gun. You are now allowed to cross-examine. ---------------------------------------------- CROSS-EXAMINATION: LARRY BUTZ-WHAT LARRY HEARD ---------------------------------------------- The only thing that has not been clearly told is what the DJ was saying. Press the statement in which Larry says he could remember what the DJ was saying. Von Karma objects and says it doesn�t matter what he was saying. When asked, say we should care. This adds a statement saying that he heard the gunshot just when the DJ said, �Hey! It�s almost Christmas!� That�s the contradiction! It�s in direct conflict with Lotta�s statement that she heard the gunshots after midnight. Present LOTTA�S DEPOSITION at the new statement. Almost Christmas means it wasn�t Christmas, so Larry heard the gunshot on Christmas Eve! That contradicts both previous testimonies. The judge asks what you think of the claim that the gunshot was heard before midnight. Say that Larry�s right. Von Karma asks for evidence. Remember that Lotta�s camera triggers on loud noises? If there was a gunshot, a photo would have been taken! This is the SECOND LAKE PHOTO, showing an empty lake, taken before midnight. Present the SECOND LAKE PHOTO. However, Lotta is not mistaken: that night, there were two sets of gunshots, with a 25-minute pause between them! Von Karma says that the camera was set to respond to loud noises, and that there is no proof that it was a gunshot. You now have to prove that the noise at 11:50 PM was a gunshot. The description of the PISTOL says that it was fired three times, but both the previous witnesses heard only two shots. The third shot was the one Larry heard before midnight! Von Karma then asks why there were two sets of gunshots. Suddenly, Phoenix realizes: the murderer in this case had the same idea as the murderer in the Steel Samurai case! However, this is not clarified. Phoenix says that the testimony cleared up the entire case. Von Karma tells you to consider the facts, and that nobody but Miles Edgeworth could have been the murderer. Phoenix then presents his alternate theory: Robert Hammond was killed by the first shot, 25 minutes before the shot on the lake! Von Karma then asks you to explain who is sitting on the boat. The only possilbe explanation is the murderer killed Hammond, assumed his identity, and met Edgeworth. The answer, then, is Edgeworth and the murderer. Robert Hammond called Edgeworth to the lake that night... ...and Edgeworth didn�t recognize the murderer in disguise, as he didn�t know Robert Hammond�s face very well. The judge then tells you to say the murderer�s name. It could not be either of the first two choices, so say that you don�t know. Phoenix doesn�t know because he never told the court! The murderer is the caretaker of the boat shop! At 11:50, he shot Robert Hammond. The judge says that there weren�t any boats on the lake then, but Phoenix says he wouldn�t have to be on a boat. You then have to say where the murder really took place. With the cursor, highlight the boat shop which is the building near Lotta�s camp with all the boats next to it. The caretaker then could have met the victim without anybody seeing. Von Karma asks you to prove that the boat shop was the scene of the crime. Phoenix says to recall Larry�s testimony: he was on a boat, searching for something. He found it, and returned the boat. Just as he was heading home, he heard a gunshot. The fact that he could hear it even though he was wearing headphones meant that the shot was very close by. If he had just returned the boat, that would be the boat shop. The judge asks Phoenix to tell the court exactly what happened on Gourd Lake, from the beginning. That night, the caretaker called Robert Hammond to his shop around 11:50. This was when Larry heard the first gunshot. After that, the caretaker put on Hammond�s coat and assumed his guise. He got in the boat with Edgewort, and went to the middle of the lake. The judge asks who fired the pistol on the boat. It was, of course, the boat shop caretaker, as you�re trying to prove that Edgeworth didn�t fire any shots. The caretaker fired the pistol twice, missing Edgeworth on purpose. You now have to say why the murderer fired twice. He would do this so a witness (i.e. Lotta Hart) would look toward the lake on the first shot and see him fire the second. After firing both shots, the murderer jumped from the boat. To anyone watching, it would look like the man still in the boat had shot the other. The caretaker swam back to his shop, put Hammond�s coat on his body, and threw the corpse into the lake. That�s what happened that night. The judge tells the bailiff to bring out the boat shop caretaker, and while they are waiting, he will ask Edgeworth some questions. Edgeworth takes the stand, and says that what Phoenix says was mostly correct. Several days ago, he received a letter, signed �Robert Hammond�. It asked him to come to the boat shop at midnight on Christmas Eve, and that he had something very important to discuss. The bailiff comes back in and says that the witness has gone, and is not at the boat shop either. The judge commands the guard to find him, and extends the trial for one more day so that the witness can be found. Also, the identity of the caretaker has become very important. In the lobby, Edgeworth says he has something very important to get off his chest. He says he�s been having a nightmare, a memory of a murder he committed. **************** DETECTIVE WORK 3 (4GOODBYESDW3) **************** �It�s a scream that has rung in my ears for 15 years.�-Miles Edgeworth ------------------------ WRIGHT & CO. LAW OFFICES ------------------------ Maya and Phoenix are talking in the law offices. Some memory has been haunting Edgeworth, but they don�t believe that he could be a murderer. Suddenly Larry shows up, talking about his performance in court. Talk to him about today�s trial. Phoenix thanks him for helping out, but Larry says that Edgeworth�s not off the hook yet. Phoenix says that there�s no way to know if Edgeworth is lying, but that he�ll �believe in you two toill the very end.� He means Edgeworth and Larry, his childhood friends. Talk about Edgeworth, and Maya asks why you trust him. Phoenix says he knew him back when he wanted to become a defence attorney, when they were classmates. In grade school, Edgeworth and Larry saved Phoenix, and that�s why he he became a defence attorney. In the beginning of spring in 4th grade, Phoenix was put on a class trial. Talk about the class trial to learn that somebody�s lunch money was stolen during PE, and that Phoenix skipped PE that day because he had a cold. That�s why they thought he did it, and put him on trial. The legal system in the class was not exactly a fair one, so the odds were swinging against Phoenix. Even the teacher thought he�d done it, but suddenly Edgeworth objected, saying that there was no evidence. If it wasn�t Phoenix who stole the money, he shouldn�t have to apologize, because there�s no proof. Even though Edgeworth�s money was stolen, he thought Phoenix was innocent. Larry jumped in too, saying that if he said he didn�t do it, he didn�t do it. After that, the three of them were best friends. Talk about Edgeworth�s goals. Phoenix says that he talked to Edgeworth after the trial and learned that his father was a defence attorney. A few months later, he suddenly transferred to another school because of his father�s death in the DL-6 incident. Phoenix heard Edgeworth�s name in the paper years later, under the headline �Dark Suspicions of a Demon Attorney�. The article said he�d do anything to get a guilty verdict. He would never respond to Phoenix when he attempted to contact him, either. This was one of the things that convinced him to become a defence attorney: so he could meet Edgeworth, and learn who he had become. He believed in Edgeworth and Larry enough to defend both of them. The best lead on the case now is the old boat shop caretaker. Some useless evidence is cleaned out of the court record. Go to the Gourd Lake Entrance. ------------------- GOURD LAKE ENTRANCE ------------------- You�ll meet Detective Gumshoe, who promises to have the caretaker in custody before the trial tomorrow. He says that nobody can go into the woods because they�re off-limits to camping. Go to the boat rental shop via the public beach. ---------------- BOAT RENTAL SHOP ---------------- Here you�ll meet, of all people, Marvin Grossberg. You�ll discuss the trial, and then he leaves, telling you to come to his office if you need anything. Go to the caretaker�s shack. ----------------- CARETAKER�S SHACK ----------------- Now that nobody is here, you can open the safe on top of the TV. Examine it, and Polly says the number for the safe: 1228. Maya opens the safe and finds nothing but a letter. It reads: �Get your revenge on Miles Edgeworth. This is your last chance! Now is your time to get revenge on the two men who ruined your life!� The letter goes on to describe the murder plot. How to kill Hammond and frame Edgeworth, mentioning everything you found out in the trial today. The letter appears to be for the caretaker, but it�s hard to tell who wrote it. The LETTER FROM THE SAFE is added to the court record. Go to the Detention Center via the Boat Rental Shop, Public Beach and Entrance. ---------------- DETENTION CENTER ---------------- Maya will mention the class trial, which Edgeworth doesn�t seem to remember. Talk about why prosecute? to ask why Edgeworth became a prosecutor when he looked up to his father, the defence attorney. He says that he couldn�t defend criminals after his father was shot, and he hated Robert Hammond, the defender who got Yanni Yogi off innocent. Talk about prosecutor von Karma. Edgeworth says that von Karma was his teacher, and that he learned everything about the courtroom from him. He�s a perfectionist, obsessed with doing everything perfectly everywhere. None of his cases were left unsolved, and every suspect was declared guilty, even though some were probably innocent. Von Karma only does his job, to get every suspect declared guilty. If a weakness appeared in him or his case, he would make it go away. Present the LETTER FROM THE SAFE to ask Edgeworth about the mysterious �revenge� part. Maya asks who the caretaker is, and Edgeworth says he doesn�t remember the man at all. If the caretaker was following the instructions in the letter, someone else must have written them. The words �last chance� mean the end of the statute of limitations on the DL-6 incident. Suddenly, Edgeworth realizes: could the old man be Yanni Yogi? Yogi was the prime suspect in the DL-6 incident. Talk about Yanni Yogi to learn that he was a bailiff at the time. Edgeworth, his father, and Yanni Yogi happened to be in the elevator together. Then there was an earthquake, everything went dark, and they were stuck in there for 5 hours. They became unsettled as the oxygen depleted. Gregory and Yogi were yelling at each other, and then Edgeworth blacked out until he woke up in a hospital bed. In court, Hammond claimed that Yogi�s mental condition was altered, and that he wasn�t of sound mind when he shot Gregory. But why would he want revenge? Edgeworth finally decides to tell you about the nightmare about the murder he committed. Talk about the nightmare. Edgeworth has had a recurring dream for 15 years about his father�s killing. Yogi attacked Gregory in the elevator to stop him from breathing the air. Miles saw Yogi�s pistol fall at his feet, and picked it up in a daze. He threw the pistol, and it discharged, shooting Gregory. Edgeworth always wakes up at that point, when his father screams. Maya says it was just a dream, but Edgeworth thinks it might be reality. The letter makes sense: Yanni Yogi was innocent, but Edgeworth committed the crime he was accused of. That would make him want revenge! Edgeworth was the true criminal of DL-6! Maya says there�s someone else who knows about DL-6...it�s Marvin Grossberg. Go to the Grossberg Law Offices. --------------------- GROSSBERG LAW OFFICES --------------------- You�ll explain the situation to Grossberg. He is under the opinion that it is not a dream, and the Edgeworth is the real DL-6 murderer. The incident wrecked Yogi�s career, so he would seek revenge on Edgeworth. Talk about Gregory Edgeworth. He was a great defence attorney, whose only peer was Mia Fey. Gregory was very critical of Manfred von Karma�s techniques. Forged testimonies and evidence meant nothing to von Karma, meaning that he had a perfect record. Gregory Edgeworth tried to beat him by putting his methods in question, but he lost. Talk about the spirit medium. The police called on Misty Fey when Gregory Edgeworth was killed. From beyond the grave, Edgeworth said that Yanni Yogi had shot him. Yogi was found innocenth, and Misty disappeared. Grossberg then suggests that Gregory�s spirit could have lied to protect his son. Present the LETTER FROM THE SAFE. It seems that Yogi was following the letter when he killed Hammond. Maya asks why he would kill Robert Hammond. Hammond was a skilled defender, but defended clients for his own sake, not for theirs. He never trusted his clients, just his own ability. He won innocent verdicts for nobody but himself. Yogi was free, but ruined socially. Suddenly, Grossberg realizes that he saw the handwriting on the letter before! He asks if you have any idea who wrote this...the only plausible answer is Manfred von Karma. Grossberg is sure: it was von Karma who wrote this letter, and told Yanni Yogi to kill Hammond! Talk about Prosecutor von Karma. He would have to know that it was Miles Edgeworth who killed his own father, and will say that in court. Maya asks how von Karma new, but Grossberg doesn�t know. He may be seeking to satisfy a grudge against Gregory Edgeworth. Fifteen years ago, von Karma met Gregory Edgeworth in court. Although he won, he didn�t make it through the trial without a blemish on his perfect record. Talk about Gregry vs. Manfred. Von Karma got his guilty verdict, but Gregory accused him of using faulty evidence. It was the only penalty on a forty-year winning streak. It was quite a shock to von Karma, as evidenced by the fact that he took a long vacation after the case: the first and last vacation he ever took in his career. Von Karma is sure to bring up DL-6, and Grossberg reminds Phoenix that even accidental murder is murder. Phoenix knows he�s not guilty, though. Grossberg suggests you check the files at the police station again. Go to the records room via the criminal affairs department. ------------ RECORDS ROOM ------------ Examine the open drawer in the row of drawers. It�s a drawer full of evidence from unsolved cases, and the file for DL-6 is empty! Suddenly, von Karma shows up! Eek! Talk to him about Edgeworth. Edgeworth was von Karma�s student. Apparently, he could never shed his air of amateurism. Phoenix accuses him of having a grudge on Gregory Edgeworth, and asks why he took his son under his wing. Von Karma says it�s none of you business. Asshole. Talk about tomorrow�s trial. You were right--von Karma is going to bring up DL-6. Present the LETTER FROM THE SAFE, as you have been with everybody else. Yogi was supposed to burn it after he read it. Von Karma then pulls out a stun gun, but Maya jumps him first. He zaps both of you anyway. Great: this makes three cases in a row where somebody has either assaulted you or tried to kill you. Von Karma got the letter, of course, and Maya accuses herself of being useless and unable to stop him. She�s holding something, though: a small bullet...from the heart of Gregory Edgeworth! The DL-6 BULLET is added to the court record. Time for the final trial! ******* TRIAL 3 (4GOODBYEST3) ******* �You and your father are my curse! I�ll bury you! I�ll bury you with my bare hands!�-Manfred von Karma Your first objective is to prove that the caretaker remembers his past. Von Karma�s opening statement says that you must cross-examine him to prove that he is the murderer. The caretaker will then testify as to why he left court. ------------------------------------------------------- WITNESS TESTIMONY: BOAT SHOP CARETAKER-WHY I LEFT COURT ------------------------------------------------------- He�s really sorry about leaving yesterday, but he wasn�t running away. He went to buy some food for Polly, figuring he had nothing to do with the incident anyhow. He�d need a motive, and he doesn�t have one. So, his testimony stands as it is. ------------------------------------------------------- CROSS-EXAMINATION: BOAT SHOP CARETAKER-WHY I LEFT COURT ------------------------------------------------------- He does have a motive. He has a grudge against both the victim and defendant. How is that not a motive? Press the final statement (�one of those motive things�) to accuse him of taking revenge. Von Karma says again that he has no memory beyond the past several years. Another thing: he definitely has something to do with the case. Press the second-to-last statement about having nothing to do with it. Phoenix asks about his memory, and says that if his memory is so bad, how could he know he had nothing to do with it? Unless he�s lying about his memory loss! Von Karma, as usual, wants you to prove that he�s lying about his memory. You can�t. The judge says you�ve been calling the witness�s memory into question, but what does that have to do with the case? Phoenix explains: the witness says he has no motive. That�s a lie! The judge and von Karma then ask who the witness is. We know this already; select Yanni Yogi. If the man is Yanni Yogi, he does have a motive! Von Karma asks you how you intend to prove that the caretaker is Yanni Yogi. Phoenix suggests that they take the man�s fingerprints. You can�t! He has no fingerprints, as he burned them off working at a chemical plant years ago. You know that he�s Yanni Yogi, you just can�t prove it. There is nobody who can testify to this, and it looks as if it�s the end of the road...until von Karma jokingly suggests that you cross-examine the parrot. Phoenix takes him up on this proposal. When asked, say you�re doing it. Polly then comes to testify. ------------------------------------------------------ WITNESS TESTIMONY: POLLY THE PARROT-WHO IS YOUR OWNER? ------------------------------------------------------ Hello! Hello! *squawk* ... ------------------------------------------------------ CROSS-EXAMINATION: POLLY THE PARROT-WHO IS YOUR OWNER? ------------------------------------------------------ That testimony is not exactly contradicted by any evidence, so press this edifying statement. Phoenix suggests Maya talk to the bird, and three options come up. First, select the phrase that makes Polly mention DL-6: �Have we forgotten something?� It doesn�t work! Von Karma must have retrained the parrot! Press the first statement again to bring up the list of options. This time, the correct statement is in the DL-6 CASE FILE. Yanni Yogi�s fiancee was named Polly Jenkins. Polly is the parrot�s name? Select �What�s your name?� When asked if this relates to her owner�s identity, select of course. You now need proof tying the names Polly and Yogi. Present the aforementioned DL-6 CASE FILE! The proof is on the �Suspect Data� page. His fiancee, Polly, links Yanni Yogi�s name to the parrot, and thus proves that the caretaker is Yanni Yogi! It�s not enough: you need corroborating evidence. Press the first statement one more time, and select the third speech option: �What�s the safe number?� When asked, say it actually does have something to do with the caretaker. You have to link this number to the caretaker�s identity. Check the DL-6 CASE FILE again: the incident occurred on December 28...12/28...1228! Present the DL-6 CASE FILE again: the evidence is on the �Case Summary� page. The date of the DL-6 incident is the number for his safe! The date must have been very important to him. The judge notes the two coincidences at the same time, and says they seem to be a pattern! The caretaker is summoned again and is forced to say his name. Von Karma tries to stop him, but he says it anyway: Yanni Yogi. He confesses to the murder of Robert Hammond and framing of Miles Edgeworth. Fifteen years ago, Hammond got him off the hook by saying that he was mentally unsound. He was innocent, but he lost everything else, and was forced to go into hiding. Fifteen years later, he received a pistol and a note, containing detailed plans for revenge. However, Yogi won�t talk about why he�d want revenge on Edgeworth. Edgeworth then takes the stand, and is declared NOT GUILTY!!! The moment he learns of his innocence, Edgeworth celebrates as any free man would: by confessing to the DL-6 incident. Raise an objection, but von Karma forces you to hear Edgeworth speak. This is it: the final trial sequence of this episode is my favorite part of the game. Let�s kick von Karma�s ass and save Edgeworth from the incident that�s been ruining his life for 15 years. Edgeworth tells the court about his recurring dream, and confesses to the shooting of his father. Von Karma says that they must try him right now for the incident, after a five minute recess. In the lobby, Phoenix is reading the court record: he�s going to prove that Edgeworth is innocent in the DL-6 incident! ---------------------------------------------------- WITNESS TESTIMONY: MILES EDGEWORTH-THE DL-6 INCIDENT ---------------------------------------------------- That day, Edgeworth went to the courtroom to observe one of his father�s trials. As they went to leave, an earthquake struck, trapping them in the elevator. His father and Mr. Yogi lost their composure and began to argue. Just then, something heavy fell at his feet. He picked it up, and threw it at Mr. Yogi. He wanted them to stop fighting. A moment later, there was a single gunshot, then a scream. It was a terrible scream, and he remembers it to this day. ---------------------------------------------------- CROSS-EXAMINATION: MILES EDGEWORTH-THE DL-6 INCIDENT ---------------------------------------------------- The contradiction comes from the statement in which Edgeworth says that there was a single gunshot. Check the ever-useful DL-6 CASE FILE and read the �Victim Data� page. The murder weapon was fired twice! Where and when was the second shot? Present the DL-6 CASE FILE at the statement about the single gunshot. The evidence is on the �Victim Data� page. The first shot was the accidental firing when the gun was thrown. Who fired the second? The judge suggests that there might have been another shooter. Von Karma says that you do not know when the second bullet was fired: it could have been the day before the incident. You have to prove that the other shot had something to do with the case. Say yes, and present the DL-6 INCIDENT PHOTO. The photograph proves that the gun was fired twice at the scene, but you have to show the judge why. Look at the elevator doors. There�s a hole in one of the windows--a bullet hole! Select this hole and click present. Gregory Edgeworth was shot with a pistol, but there is also a bullet hole in the door. You know the murder weapon was fired twice, but Edgeworth only remembers one shot. Someone other than Edgeworth must have fired it! That someone else is the real murderer! Von Karma says that the DL-6 CASE FILE shows that no clues were found on the scene. If the pistol had been fired twice, the other bullet would have been on the scene! He then claims that the second bullet does not exist. The judge asks one thing to Miles Edgeworth before the verdict. Has he been paying attention to the trial? Edgeworth says yes, and that he has no objections. When asked, object like hell! Suddenly, you get a short vision of Mia telling you that the second bullet must exist, and that someone took it! Phoenix brings up that the murderer might have taken it. Von Karma tells you to name the murderer, but Phoenix doesn�t know. The judge then asks if the murderer needed to search for the bullet. It won�t seem to help your case, but say the murderer didn�t need it. Mia appears again, telling you to think why the bullet had to be taken. Phoenix says the murderer didn�t intend to take the bullet from the scene, but he HAD to because...maybe the bullet hit the murderer! If it hit him, he would have to take it with him. Two bullets were fired, but one hit the murderer, forcing him to take it with him. However, there�s a problem: the survivors were completely unharmed! That would mean that the murderer came from outside! The two men fought inside the elevator. Trying to stop them, the boy picks up the pistol and throws it. The pistol fires, and the bullet goes through the door and hits the murderer outside. The boy loses consciousness. The murderer opens the elevator door and sees the men inside, and shoots one. Of course, nobody involved in the incident was wounded. Suddenly, Maya thinks of something crazy, and remembers what Grossberg said: Gregory Edgeworth dealt a blow to von Karma�s perfect trial record, and it was such a shock that he took a long vacation afterwards. Von Karma might have taken that vacation not because he was shocked, but because he was injured! That would mean von Karma WAS THE MURDERER! The judge asks the name of your suspect, so decide to come out and say it. It was von Karma, the von Karma, in the prosecutor�s chair. He took a vacation not to recover from shock, but from a bullet wound. Of course, he asks you to prove it. Edgeworth says that von Karma wouldn�t get surgery so as not to leave clues. He�s that perfect. As Maya says, he couldn�t have pulled the bullet out himself. That would mean it�s still in him somewhere! Select to show evidence, and present the thing in the court record that would be able to find a bullet in somebody: the METAL DETECTOR you used to look for Gourdy. Von Karma refuses to let you use the METAL DETECTOR on him. This probably means that the bullet is still inside him. The judge permits use of the METAL DETECTOR, which reveals a bullet inside his right shoulder! Von Karma claims that he was shot in the shoulder long before the incident, and claims that there is no relation. You have to prove that the bullet is related to DL-6, which von Karma thinks you can�t do without any DL-6 evidence. You do have proof, though! Present the DL-6 BULLET! This is the bullet used in the DL-6 incident, taken from the heard of Gregory Edgeworth. The bullet is preserved with the ballistic markings. They have two bullets: the one from Gregory�s heart, and the one in von Karma�s right shoulder. They could analyze both bullets to determine whether they came from the same gun...the murder weapon! Von Karma knows you�ve beaten him, and screams the very same scream which has haunted Edgeworth since the incident. It was him! Fifteen years earlier, Gregory Edgeworth put a blemish on von Karma�s record. He was penalized, and was shocked. Suddenly, the lights went out, and he ended up in the court�s records room. He went out into the hall and found the elevator. He pressed the button, but nothing happened. Then the gun fired and shot him in the shoulder. The lights came on then, and the elevator door opened. He saw three people lying inside and a pistol at his feet. Gregory Edgeworth died without knowing who had shot him, and blamed Mr. Yogi through a medium. Von Karma had fooled the dead...the perfect crime. Miles Edgeworth is declared NOT GUILTY!!! Again! A spectacular end to von Karma�s winning streak: not only did you get two not guilty verdicts in the same trial, but you convicted him of murder. Enjoy the ending cutscene. Phoenix awakes in the law offices, and finds a letter from Maya saying that she�s going to finish her training. He goes to the train station, and talks to Maya, who thinks she was completely useless. You have to present evidence to cheer her up. Remember how she stole the DL-6 BULLET from von Karma? And how you couldn�t have won the trial without that? Present the DL-6 BULLET and enjoy the rest of the cutscene. ############################## EPISODE 5: RISE FROM THE ASHES (5ASHES) ############################## VICTIM: Bruce Goodman DEFENDANT: Lana Skye ATTORNEY FOR THE DEFENCE: Phoenix Wright ATTORNEY FOR THE PROSECUTION: Miles Edgeworth WITNESS LIST: Angel Starr, Damon Gant, Mike Meekins, Jake Marshall, Ema Skye, Lana Skye This episode is awesome. While the last part may have been the coolest sequence, this is the coolest general episode. It�s different in a lot of ways: no huge personal stake, Ema Skye follows you around instead of Maya, and it�s way longer than any of the others, with more evidence. The cardinal difference is that several features have been added making use of the DS touch screen. The episode begins mysteriously enough: the same man is killed twice, in two different places, by two different people. Chief Prosecutor Lana Skye (you heard her say a few sentences during episode 2) has confessed to the murder, and her sister Ema has shown up in Phoenix�s office asking him for help. As he investigates, Phoenix will uncover deep- seated police corruption, gamble with the careers of almost everyone involved (including him), cross swords with prosecutors, several eccentric cops, and the Chief of Police, and end up investigating the SL-9 incident, the unsolved final murder in a string of serial killings. All in all, a fitting end to such an awesome game. **************** DETECTIVE WORK 1 (5ASHESDW1) **************** �I know she didn�t do it! It�s a scientific fact!�-Ema Skye The stabbings are detailed (somewhat) in the opening cutscene, after which Phoenix tells the story of the girl who showed up in his office and gave him his first trial in two months. ------------------------ WRIGHT & CO. LAW OFFICES ------------------------ Here, you�ll meet Ema Skye for the first time. She mistakes you for Mia, but then learns who you are and decides you�re better than nobody. She seems desperate to get you to help her sister, and Phoenix agrees to listen to her after realizing that her situation is somewhat similar to Maya�s. Ema says she�s a scientific investigator. Talk about Ema. Phoenix notices that she�s kind of jumpy, or maybe just young: she�ll be sixteen this year. However, she�s set to be assigned to forensics in three years, as her work is well known. Her current position, though, is eleventh-grader. Talk about the case. Apparently Ema�s sister stabbed somebody with a knife and a witness saw her do it. Ema begs Phoenix to talk to her sister, who seems to know Mia in some way. Talk about sci. investigator. Ema believes investigations should be done scientifically, and is sure that her sister will be cleared if the case is handled that way. She says she�s developing a new method of case investigation. Talk about relation to Mia. Ema�s sister went to the same school as Mia, and told her to find Mia if she needed a defence attorney. Unfortunately, Ema appears to hate her sister �like she is now�. But she�s her only family, as their parents died in a car accident. Go to the detention center to talk to your new client. ---------------- DETENTION CENTER ---------------- Ema gets quiet as soon as you arrive, and you hear an authoritarian voice talking to the guard. It�s Lana Skye, Ema�s sister and the defendant. Lana specifically told Ema not to come, but she had to because Lana needs a defender. Lana knows about you from Mia, as well. She is the Chief Prosecutor for the district, which makes another odd similarity between the Skyes and Feys: two sisters, one lawyer. Talk to Lana about the case. Lana says that the suspect, her, has already confessed to the crime, but Phoenix asks what happened anyway. Lana explains: the crime took place on February 21 at 5:15 PM. She knows this from the witness who saw her. The murder happened in the underground parking lot at the prosecutor�s office. The body was found in the trunk of her subordiante�s car, and Lana was arrested on the spot. Talk about the victim to learn he was a detective with the police department. He was killed due to loss of blood from a stab wound in his stomach. If the victim was a detective, it will be a matter of pride in the police department to declare her guilty, and they will go to any lengths to do it. Talk about Lana. She�s the Chief Prosecutor, responsible for overseeing every trial handled by district prosecutors. She manages every aspect of the trials and makes sure her employees have what they need to do their jobs. Lana thinks you�d recognize the district chief prosecutor, and shows her surprise with her hand. Ema notices that her hand is bandaged, and asks what happened. Lana says she cut herself when he stabbed him; she�s not good at being a criminal. Talk about relation to Mia. Lana was in school with her, and she notes that Phoenix has little in common with Mia. In law school, Mia was auditing Lana�s class. She was different from the other students: she was strong, and would do anything to become an attorney. That was why she gravitated toward Lana. Lana then says that she�s admitted her guilt, and that there�s no way you can take the case. Ema says she wasn�t always this way, but now she only thinks of herself. Ema knows she didn�t do it, so Lana decides to request your services. Phoenix doesn�t think the confession fits either, and decides that he�s going to find out what�s going on. ------------------------ WRIGHT & CO. LAW OFFICES ------------------------ Back at the office, Ema assures you that Lana isn�t always that way. She used to be gentle and smiling, and eveybody loved her. Ema doesn�t know for certain what changed. Phoenix decides to go investigate the scene of the crime. Go to the underground parking lot. ----------------------- UNDERGROUND PARKING LOT ----------------------- This is where it happened. Ema yells hello to everybody before Phoenix can remind her that they�re not supposed to be here. Jake Marshall then shows up, and tells you that this is �his gang�s gold strike� and that only they can look for evidence here. He also says that you�ll live to regret it if you try to take what�s his. Ema explains that he�s a detective, then you can look around. First, check out the glass-walled security office. You could probably see the whole parking lot from there. Next, examine the wallet on the floor, near the door and computer terminal. Ema tells you that anything at a crime scene is evidence, and proceeds to give you a tutorial. She explains how to closely examine evidence. Open the court record and click the check button on the evidence you want to examine. You can use the dials on the bottom and right to rotate the object horizontally and vertically, and the lever on the left will enlarge and shrink the object. You use the regular crosshair system to examine. Zoom in about halfway and rotate so you can see the gold button and strap holding the wallet closed. Examine it to open it, and inside you�ll find an ID card. GOODMAN�S ID is added to the court record. Next, move right. On the floor, near the oil drum, is a cell phone. Examine it. Jake Marshall shows up again and tells you to leave. Ema asks who owns the car that the body was found in. Marshall tells you to look in room 1202 on the twelth floor. Just after he leaves, Angel Starr appears. For some reason she�s selling lunches at a crime scene, and says it�s off-limits to anybody without clearance, which, as Ema points out, should include her. Angel says that even if her days as the �cough-up queen� are over, she�s very connected to the case. She is the witness who saw Lana stab the victim. Talk to her about the case. Angel says that yesterday was a day of destiny and that she knew something would happen. She also says that Phoenix should know of the �foul misdeeds� of the prosecutors who work in this office. Yesterday they gave out the award for �king of prosecutors� at some sort of convention. Ema asks if Angel has some kind of grudge against prosecutors, but she refuses to say. The body was found in the trunk of the car belonging to the �king of prosecutors�. Talk about what you witnessed. Angel says that it was a spectacle seeing Lana wield the knife in such anger and bring the victim to a sad end. She saw the very moment of the death, and knows Lana Skye as well: it�s quite a feat to become Chief Prosecutor. Talk about Angel. She sells imported lunches here every day, and they�re a big hit here. Her boyfriend works in the securities office with the glass walls. Talk about the prosecutor�s office. Phoenix asks Angel if she had a bad experience with a prosecutor. She dodges the question, and Phoenix wonders if she was involved in legal trouble. Perhaps she�s not just a lunch lady after all. Go to the High Prosecutor�s office. ------------------------ HIGH PROSECUTOR�S OFFICE ------------------------ When you enter, Ema notices a trophy on the couch. It�s a shield with a gold letter K on it. Suddenly, Miles Edgeworth appears--it seems this is his office. Ema is surprised to see him; apparently she�s his �biggest fan�. She met him once through Lana. Ema mentions that they are investigating murder, and Edgeworth says that the car in which they found the body was his. Talk about the case, and Edgeworth accuses you of thinking he did it, even after all the trouble you went through to get him acquitted. Phoenix doesn�t think he did it, of course. Edgeworth asks Ema if she is Lana�s little sister, and vaguely remembers the last time he met her. The case is a surprise to him too, both that his car was the scene of the crime and that he must prove his superior�s guilt. Lana can�t prosecute herself, so Edgeworth will prosecute at the trial tomorrow. Talk about Edgeworth. He says it�s a miracle he�s still here at all. Phoenix asks why, and Edgeworth says that he�s been the subject of some unpleasant rumors. Phoenix remembers: forged evidence, false testimony, illegal searches (actually, the last one is somewhat like what you do). Edgeworth�s innocence of murder was established, but some say he�s responsible for the current murder. Talk about Lana Skye: she and Edgeworth first worked together two years ago, before Phoenix was even a lawyer. Since then he feels that she was looking out for him, but supposed he was wrong. Ema says that she must have cared some, and Edgeworth says that if that�s true, why did she stab someone in his car? BURN. Edgeworth goes on to say that she stabbed the victim with his knife, from the toolbox in his trunk. EDGEWORTH�S KNIFE is added to the court record. Phoenix asks if Edgeworth is sure he didn�t do it. It�s only a joke, but neither Edgeworth nor Ema seem to think it�s funny. Break off the conversation and examine the trophy on the couch on the left side. It�s the award for �King of Prosecutors� that is presented every year to the best prosecutor at the office. The PROSECUTOR TROPHY is added to the court record. It�s now time to check your new evidence more closely, so open the court record and check EDGEWORTH�S KNIFE. Examine the blood on the blade. It�s either the victim�s or Edgeworth cut himself peeling fruit. Present the PROSECUTOR TROPHY and Edgeworth complains about having to miss a day of work so he could go receive the trophy at the police department. Ema asks why the shield is broken, but Edgeworth doesn�t really care. Yesterday was a busy day at the prosecutor�s office, he says. Talk about the day of the crime and Edgeworth explains that it was the annual �cleaning day�. The prosecutors sort and file the evidence they get from the police department-- like wiping their hands of old cases. There�s also a ceremony where awards are presented for the best prosecutors. He returned to the office from the police department that afternoon at 5:12. He knows this because he has evidence: a parking stub. The PARKING STUB is added to the court record. The murder happened right after he got back. Suddenly, a mysterious man in a patrolman�s uniform shows up and asks for Edgeworth. He is there at the chief�s request, and has a report. Edgeworth asks if it�s about Lana Skye, and says he gave orders for nothing to be given to him that didn�t relate to that case. The man says he�s just following orders to bring the report. He then gives his name as Officer Mike Meekins, and Edgeworth tells him to take the report and leave. He then asks Phoenix and Ema to leave, and before you go, says that the victim was a detective from the same department as Meekins. He tells you to ask more at the Police Department. Go to the Police Department entrance via the underground parking lot. -------------------------- POLICE DEPARTMENT ENTRANCE -------------------------- Upon arrival, Phoenix notices the large dancing mascot, the Blue Badger. This guy seems like an incredibly unimportant detail to keep coming up again and again, but he will be important eventually. Ema says that the Blue Badger seems familiar, and then Phoenix notices Detective Gumshoe doing the same dance as the Badger. Talk to Gumshoe about the case. He tells you not to agree to defend the suspect because she�s confessed and there�s a lot of evidence against her. Ema is mad, saying that Lana could be lying and that the evidence could be faked. Gumshoe asks why she�s mad, so Phoenix explains that she�s a relative of Lana�s. Gumshoe then says that faked evidence is a touchy subject these days. Talk about the investigation. Gumshoe doesn�t know what�s happening since he got kicked out of Criminal Affairs since the murder. Because of Lana�s high profile, only the highest ranks are getting in, and that means none of the rank-and-file. That�s a little odd. Since Gumshoe has nothing better to do, he decided to spend the day learning the badger dance. The Chief of Police himself is directing the investigation, and Officer Marshall is running the parking lot. It�s also odd to have a patrolman in charge of a crime scene. You�re here to ask about the victim, so present GOODMAN�S ID. Gumshoe recognizes the detective�s ID and thinks the name Bruce Goodman sounds familiar. Suddenly he remembers--Bruce Goodman is the victim! Talk about Bruce Goodman; he was a detective like Gumshoe. Ema thinks it�s strange that the ID was lying on the ground at the parking lot. Goodman should have been at the police department yesterday, doing evidence transferal for a case of his two years ago. Apparently, Lana called him out to the parking lot before she killed him. You should also ask about Edgeworth, so present EDGEWORTH�S KNIFE. Gumshoe wonders what would drive Lana to do such a thing. He thinks it must be someone with a grudge against Edgeworth, as the car and knife seem to be organized. You need to know more about Edgeworth so present the PROSECUTOR TROPHY. Phoenix asks Gumshoe if he was at the ceremony, and he says yes, as he got an award himself. Ema asks why the award is a broken shield. Gumshoe says there�s a reason, but he�s forgotten. He says that Edgeworth has enemies in the prosecutor�s office. Talk about rumors at law. Edgeworth is in a tough spot again. It started with the murder of Robert Hammond in the last episode. There have always been rumors about Edgeworth, and since he was accused of murder, nobody�s keepng quiet. People have always been suspicious of Edgeworth because of his lofty connections, but the latest case has started a new rumor: that he�s gunning for the chief prosecutor spot! Gumshoe believes, though, that Edgeworth is doing everyone a favor--nobody wants to prosecute the chief prosecutor. Examine the Blue Badger. Gumshoe says he created it from designs by the chief detective. It�s battery powered and you can�t turn it off. The BLUE BADGER PANEL is added to the court record. Phoenix asks why Gumshoe isn�t handling the case, and then asks about Jake Marshall. He�s just a regular officer from West L.A. Gumshoe then gives you a LETTER OF INTRODUCTION so you can examine the crime scene. Go to the Underground Parking Lot. ----------------------- UNDERGROUND PARKING LOT ----------------------- Jake Marshall is still here, and Phoenix notices that he is a very strange guy to put in charge of a crime scene. Present the LETTER OF INTRODUCTION so he�ll talk to you. You�ll then throw the letter away. Talk to Marshall about the victim. Goodman was killed here at 5:15 by one stab wound. He then gives you GOODMAN�S AUTOPSY REPORT which is added to the court record. Marshall says that Goodman and Lana had nothing in common at all, although they worked together on a case a while ago. There�s no motive! Goodman wasn�t a great detective, so he didn�t talk to the prosecutors that much. However, Lana called him here yesterday. Talk about Marshall. He says he was a detective until two years ago. Ema asks how he, as a patrolman, can be running a crime scene, and Marshall explains that they�re short on men and he�s just keeping watch. If they�re so understaffed, though, why would Gumshoe have nothing important to do? You can now investigate the crime scene, so move to the right. Examine the cell phone on the ground next to the oil drum, the one that Marshall wouldn�t let you look at the last time you were here. Ema thinks it belongs to the victim, so select to check it out. You�ll automatically go to the examination screen. First off, you need to open the phone. Rotate to the other side, zoom in all the way, and examine the blue button on the side to open it. The display is still on the redial button, so you can press the blue button to call the last number dialed. Examine the blue button on the inside of the phone to use the redial. Marshall shows up suddenly and tells you that the phone belongs to Lana, and that she dropped it after being taken into custody. The last call was made just before the murder, but she only talked for a few seconds. The redial function, however, called Phoenix�s phone-- someone must have called a wrong number right when they picked up the other phone. The CELL PHONE is added to the court record. Go back left and talk to Marshall about Lana Skye. Ema says there�s no connection between Bruce Goodman and her sister. That�s true, but there�s a lot of evidence against her, and Miles Edgeworth is prosecuting, so she doesn�t have much chance. Ema blurts out a hint that Marshall and Lana had some kind of connection. Talk about office atmosphere. Rumors have been flying around about Edgeworth for years now, and he was unbeatable until he met Phoenix. Marshall asys that if you follow the rumors to their source, you find someone �untouchable�: Lana Skye. He says that Edgeworth might have been making secret deals to win cases, and that he has a �big �ol secret�. Gumshoe was taken from the case for being close to Edgeworth. Head right again and examine the trunk of the car. Phoenix finds some sort of note, bearing a cryptic message: �6-7S 12/2�. Above that, the name Goodman is printed; it must have fallen from his pocket. Of course nobody knows what it means. The VICTIM�S NOTE is added to the court record. You�re doing alright now: you have some clues, but Lana�s still confessing. Phoenix brings up Ema�s ringtone: it�s the theme from the Steel Samurai. The phone that rang wasn�t his, it was hers. At 5:18, right after the murder, Lana called her sister, but hung up right away. The CELL PHONE is updated in the court record. Save your data and prepare for the trial. ******* TRIAL 1 (5ASHEST1) ******* �Somehow, I always knew a day like this would come.�-Angel Starr Phoenix tells Lana that the investigation left a lot of gray areas (�one big gray area�). Lana then says she�s ready to accept her fate, then offers Phoenix advice. Defence attorneys should never believe their clients. Phoenix somewhat unsubtly reminds Lana that she�s not a defence attorney and shouldn�t be giving him advice. As the trial begins, Edgeworth tells you to leave personal feelings out of the proceedings. In his opening statement, he says that Lana commited an unpardonable crime in the office parking lot. There was a witness as well: Angel Starr is called to the stand. After first giving everybody lunch, she says that she�s a professional witness. She was a homicide detective until two years ago. Angel then explains the crime: the parking lot at the prosecutor�s office is divided into two blocks. A Block is for the office�s personnel, and B Block is for visitors. The two are separated by a divider. The crime took a place in A Block, in a car�s trunk. The killer stabbed the victim with a knife and tried to drive the body out. She would have, but Angel caught her and made an arrest. The PARKING LOT FLOOR PLANS are added to the court record, after which the testimony begins. ------------------------------------------------ WITNESS TESTIMONY: ANGEL STARR-WITNESS�S ACCOUNT ------------------------------------------------ Somehow, she always knew a day like this would come. She was on her way to deliver a lunchbox to her boyfriend, when she sensed something-- perhaps her finely-honed detective instincts working. Then, through a wire fence, she saw the chief prosecutor standing next to a garish car. The chief prosecutor was holding a knife in her right hand. Then, she thrust the pointy tip of the knife into Detective Goodman�s chest! ------------------------------------------------ CROSS-EXAMINATION: ANGEL STARR-WITNESS�S ACCOUNT ------------------------------------------------ Start by pressing the first statement. Phoenix asks how she knew, and Angel says that prosecutors are prone to erasing evidence that doesn�t support their cases. Killing detectives who know too much is just an extension. Ema asks if Angel has something against prosecutors. Angel says that she had found her dream job as a detective, but was laid off by the prosecutors. Press the second statement to ask who her boyfriend is. He�s the security guard, who works in the guard room at A Block. It�s up on the second level so you can see everything. Phoenix asks if she brought her lunches by car, and Angel says she parked in B Block, and witnessed the crime from there. Continue in numerical order by pressing the third statement. Phoenix asks if Angel had a premonition of the murder. She says it was like �the feeling you get when you open a pumpkin full of seeds�. Phoenix then says that Goodman was also a detective, but Angel says he was like a �young cheese�--not much experience. Finally, press the fourth statement for some results. The garish car is Edgeworth�s, as is the knife with which the victim was stabbed. Angel saw the crime from thirty feet away and was sure it was Lana. Phoenix tries to complain that Angel stated that prosecutors are worms, and is a biased witness. Angel then reveals a photograph she took from a camera rigged on one of her lunchboxes. Unfortunately, it definitely shows Lana. The CRIME PHOTO is added to the court record. Now that you have some firepower, go to the fifth statement (�knife in her right hand�) and look at the photograph. This is of the very moment of the crime, but Lana is not holding a knife! Present the CRIME PHOTO. Edgeworth explains that the photo was not taken the moment before the stabbing, but the moment after. Angel says you can tell this by the splattering of blood on Lana�s clothes. Raise an objection when prompted, and Phoenix says that it contradicts the testimony that the photo was taken the moment of the crime. Angel apologizes, saying she was slightly unclear. She then says that Lana was cold and calculating in the killing, that she murdered him without remorse--so it must have been premeditated! Phoenix asks how she knows, and Edgeworth points out that Lana is wearing gloves so as to intentionally not leave fingerprints. If it was not premeditated, she would not be wearing the gloves! Angel adds a statement to her testimony, saying that the murder was planned and that the gloves prove it. Aha! Now you�ve got her! Think about the murder weapon--it was a knife that Lana happened to find in the trunk of the car. If it was premeditated murder, she would have brought her own knife! Present EDGEWORTH�S KNIFE at the new statement. Even after your brilliant objection, Edgeworth has something to say. He doesn�t care whether or not it was premeditated, as long as she still murdered a man with a knife. Angel then comes up with a new testimony, telling how she deduced that Lana planned the murder. ------------------------------------------------ WITNESS TESTIMONY: ANGEL STARR-ANGEL�S DEDUCTION ------------------------------------------------ Lana Skye intended to murder Detective Goodman! That�s why she called the victim all the way to the prosecutor�s office. Angel is sure the chief prosecutor had a grudge against the victim. Nothing else could drive that human machine to plunge the knife in again and again... ------------------------------------------------ CROSS-EXAMINATION: ANGEL STARR-ANGEL�S DEDUCTION ------------------------------------------------ This one will be somewhat easier than the last one. The obvious contradiction involves the final statement, in which Angel says that Lana stabbed Goodman �again and again�. Check GOODMAN�S AUTOPSY REPORT; he died from one stab wound. Present the report at the final statement. Edgeworth steals your objection and explains it himself, but at least you found a hole in the testimony. Angel says she mistook something for blood. When Lana lifted the knife after the stabbing, Angel thought she saw blood splattered on her from the victim, and thought she must have stabbed him at least twice. However, it was actually Lana�s red muffler that she mistook for blood, and a statement is added saying this. Another easy kill here. Look at the CRIME PHOTO--Lana is obviously not wearing a muffler. Present the CRIME PHOTO at the new statement. That asshole Edgeworth steals you objection again. Angel is sure there was a scarf or something red, but the judge asks her to testify again on arresting Lana. ------------------------------------------------------- WITNESS TESTIMONY: ANGEL STARR-APPREHENDING THE SUSPECT ------------------------------------------------------- After the murder, the suspect attempted to run behind a partition off to her side. Angel quickly caught her, explained her rights to her, and arrested her on the spot. When she arrested Lana, Lana mentioned the muffler! That�s what had Angel confused in her earlier testimony. The chief prosecutor made to escape, but against Angel Starr, resistance is futile! ------------------------------------------------------- CROSS-EXAMINATION: ANGEL STARR-APPREHENDING THE SUSPECT ------------------------------------------------------- First, you�ll want more information about the actual capture. Press the second statement (�arrested her on the spot�) to ask if she was close to the suspect. Angel says she was thirty feet away from her the whole time. Select to press her for more details. Phoenix asks to see the scene on the PARKING LOT FLOOR PLANS. Angel was a visitor, so she parked in B Block, and witnessed the murder from there, about thirty feet from the car. There was a fence between the two lots, but she went over it. However, this would have taken some time. Why did Lana not escape? The other weird part of the testimony is the part where Lana mentions the muffler. Why would she do that? Press this statement to ask exactly what she said; Angel doesn�t remember. All she heard was the word �muffler� meaning that it must have been someone else Lana was talking to. She was on her phone! Choose to ask further. Phoenix shows the CELL PHONE from the crime scene, and Angel says that she �ultimately� used this one. The chief prosecutor first attempted to use the emergency phone hanging on the wall, but it was out of order, so she used her cell. LANA�S CELL PHONE is updated in the court record. A new statement is added to the court record saying this. Press it and Phoenix asks Angel to explain. The chief prosecutor stabbed the victim and ran behind the partition. She then picked up the emergency phone, but it was out of order, so she pulled her own cell phone from her pocket. While she was doing this, Angel climbed over the fence. The moment Angel grabbed Lana�s arm, she hung up. Yes! Now you�ve got her! Look at the PARKING LOT FLOOR PLANS. If Angel witnessed the crime from the spot where she said she did, the wall would have blocked her view, and she couldn�t have seen Lana making a phone call! Present the PARKING LOT FLOOR PLANS at the new statement (�used her cell phone�). The phone was on the other side of the partition, so Angel must be lying! Edgeworth asks a question, though: what lie has the witness told, exactly? You now have three choices. The order of events wouldn�t make much difference. Also, Angel seemed very sure about what she saw Lana doing. Therefore, she must have seen it from a different place. Select that she is lying about where she saw it. It would have been pointless for her to lie about Lana�s attempted use of the emergency phone. Angel did see her doing this, so she must have witnessed the crime from somewhere else! Predictably, the judge now asks where she saw it, and you have to point it out on the PARKING LOT FLOOR PLANS. Remember that Angel doesn�t work at the prosecutor�s office and couldn�t have parked in A Block. The only place where she could have seen everything Lana was doing without being in A Block was the security guard office; where she said earlier that she had gone to take a lunch to her boyfriend. Angel says that she�s not turning back and will make sure that justice is served. Ema is confused: why did Angel lie? She could have just said she witnessed the crime from the security guard station, and it wouldn�t have damaged her testimony. And as Edgeworth says, the fact still stands that Lana stabbed Goodman. Phoenix objects and says that it does not. If a witness is found lying in their testimony, they�re guilty of perjury. Angel wouldn�t lie without good reason. The judge asks what her reason is. Ema tells you to review what you know. Angel saw the crime from the security guard office, but said she saw it from B Block. It must make a difference, but what? Difference in lighting is meaningless, and angle to view wouldn�t change anything. However, from the office, it would have taken her much longer to get to the crime! Select distance to the crime. She would have seen the same thing, but could not have gone to apprehend Lana! Angel says that when she brought her boyfriend his lunch, he wasn�t there, so she waited. She then saw the crime from the guard post and found herself running toward the scene. However, the door was locked, so she ran around the other direction to B Block. It probably took her five minutes to get to the scene of the crime. This changes things, but it was still the defendant who stabbed him. As you should do as often as possible, object. Five minutes from the witnessing point to the scene of the crime is a long time. If you were a criminal, in five minutes you�d flee! However, Lana stayed at the scene of the crime--no criminal would behave that way! The judge says that the testimony is over, as she has a grudge against the defendant and there is a blank. He is about to adjourn court, but Angel stops him, saying that she has decisive evidence. The judge allows her to testify. ------------------------------------------------ WITNESS TESTIMONY: ANGEL STARR-DECISIVE EVIDENCE ------------------------------------------------ Angel should have mentioned those five minutes when she wasn�t looking at the crime scene. But now, to the matter of the victim�s shoe...did she not bring this up...? Two types of blood were found on this shoe! One was of course the victim�s. And the other was...! The defendant, Ms. Lana Skye�s blood! This shoe proves it! It�s flawless, decisive evidence! Edgeworth says that he can�t accept this as evidence. He says Angel should know the two rules of evidence law. Rule 1: no evidence shall be shown without the approval of the police department. The shoe is illegal evidence! Angel says, however, that it was tested earlier that day by forensics, and was approved by the police department. The VICTIM�S SHOE is added to the court record. ------------------------------------------------ CROSS-EXAMINATION: ANGEL STARR-DECISIVE EVIDENCE ------------------------------------------------ Since you just got new evidence, it�s a good idea to examine it more closely. Check the VICTIM�S SHOE and examine the blood on the side. That blood is Lana�s, it came from her right hand when she cut it. Examine the blood on the sole. This is Goodman�s--he must have stepped in a puddle of his own blood. Now that you know more about the decisive evidence, press the final statement, in which Angel asserts that it�s flawless and decisive. You have to prove what the problem is with the shoe. Of course there�s a problem, so say that there is. There�s a clear contradiction! You have to show the problem with the VICTIM�S SHOE. There is a big one: how did blood get on the bottom of his shoe? Highlight the blood on the sole and present. Edgeworth asks what the problem is, and you have to present evidence. Check the CRIME PHOTO again. Aha! There is NO blood on the floor! There aren�t any footprints! What blood could he have stepped in? Present the CRIME PHOTO. If there was blood on the bottom of Goodman�s shoe, why was were no bloody footprints left at the scene? Edgeworth objects (duh!), saying that the photo only shows part of the floor. Phoenix counter- objects, saying the bloody footprints would have been found. At the scene, they found nothing of the sort! Ema and the judge ask why there were no footprints. Phoenix says he doesn�t know. Edgeworth then says that there is a vital hint to the truth in the testimony. Angel said that when she arrested Lana, Lana resisted by kicking over an oil drum. Edgeworth then asks if the drum was empty. Angel says it was full of water. Edgeworth then says that Lana kicked over the oil drum in order to erase the bloodstains. He calls for the verdict, even though Ema believes that Angel was lying about the water. Angel stops the judge and asks if Ema said she was on the prosecution�s side. She did, so Angel shows new evidence to prove she wasn�t lying. It�s a photograph of Goodman lying in the trunk, next to a pool of water. This proves she wasn�t lying and erases the last doubt. Suddenly, Phoenix is haunted by a vision of Mia, telling him to take another good look. Phoenix objects and says there�s a problem with the photograph. You now have to point it out. Remember that Lana mentioned a muffler while talking on her cell phone. What if she didn�t mean a scarf, but the muffler on the car? The problem is in the car�s muffler. For those of you, like me, who don�t know cars, that�s the exhaust pipe, or the little pipe coming out from the back. There�s something in it! Highlight the muffler and present. Angel tries to say that it�s not important, and you have to say why it is. Lana mentioned it in her cell phone conversation, so present LANA�S CELL PHONE. If it was important enough for her to talk about it, it must be some kind of vital evidence! The judge suspends proceedings for a thirty minute recess, so you can save your data. After discussing the trial for a moment, Jake Marshall appears, saying he wanted to see how the trial was going. Ema mentions the muffler, and Marshall says that he�s sure she was wearing a red muffler that day. However, she wasn�t wearing it at the crime scene. When court reconvenes, Edgeworth seems incredibly pissed off about something. Suddenly, a strange man enters the courtroom. Phoenix asks who he is, and the judge says he�s the district chief of police. The man introduces himself as Damon Gant. He says he came to help out �Edgey� by bringing Lana�s red muffler. She was wearing it at the crime scene, but according to Gant, stuffed it in the exhaust pipe! Gant then shows another piece of evidence, a switchblade knide, which the judge accepts. He then asks Phoenix to open it. Just examine the switch on the side and the blade wil come out. The tip is broken, and there�s a dark red bloodstain. The SWITCHBLADE KNIFE is added to the court record. The judge then asks Gant to testify on the split between prosecutors and police, and the knife. ---------------------------------------------------- WITNESS TESTIMONY: DAMON GANT-DEPARTMENT IN DISORDER ---------------------------------------------------- This knife is special, but Gant can�t say how here, unless there�s evidence to prove a connection between the knife and Goodman. That was a bad day for the department, and they weren�t in shape to do any investigation. A detective was killed at the police department, see...what a mess! The time of the crime? 5:15. Scary coincidence, eh? It�s not officially linked to this here case, so he can�t talk much about it. There was a murder at the police department at the exact time of Detective Goodman�s death. The police department is in the middle of a top secret investigation of the murder. Phoenix is then allowed to cross-examine Gant. ---------------------------------------------------- CROSS-EXAMINATION: DAMON GANT-DEPARTMENT IN DISORDER ---------------------------------------------------- First, examine the SWITCHBLADE KNIFE. Specifically, read the tag. It says �SL-9 2� which reminds Phoenix of a similar code, �DL-6�--it�s a case number. Now that you know a bit more, press the vague first statement. Gant says that it�s hard to come by that knife anywhere else, and Phoenix asks if the special part is the tag. Gant can�t say that either. Edgeworth asks why there were two knives at the crime scene--it�s a mystery. Press the second statement, and Phoenix says that the knife was at the crime scene and must be connected to the case. There must be something about the knife that links it to Goodman...maybe it�s the evidence that�s had you stumped! The tag on the knife read �SL-9�...and this turned upside down is �6- 7S�, exactly what�s on the VICTIM�S NOTE! This is the most enigmatic piece of evidence, so present the VICTIM�S NOTE at the second statement. The note is upside-down--when you turn it over, it reads �2/21 SL-9�. Gant says you win and adds a statemen saying that the knife was evidence in a case that stolen. You need to know more about this, so press the new statement. The knife was stolen on the day of the murder, and was a murder weapon in a case long solved. The knife was stolen on the day of the murder, and later found at the crime scene. There�s got to be a connection! To learn more, press the statement in which Gant says a detective was killed. On the same day a detective was killed at the prosecutor�s office, another detective was killed at the police department. There�s a suspect who was just arrested, but there�s a lot of unanswered questions. Phoenix asks for info on the case, and Gant agrees to tell him only one thing. You already know when he died, and how he was killed won�t help much. Select that you want to know where the victim was found. Gant says the crime took place in the evidence room at the police department. Ema remembers that this was the place where the SWITCHBLADE KNIFE was stolen from. There�s the connection! Now that you know there�s a link, you can get Gant to talk more about it. Press the final statement (�not officially linked�) to bring up your connection. The knife found in the lot was stolen from the evidence room. Also, the victim wrote down the numbers on the knife�s tag. The detective murdered at the police department was killed in that very evidence room! Gant agrees to give out the information unofficially, and adds a new statement saying he�ll cooperate. Press this new statement to get a list of things to ask about the detective. His division and gender won�t mean anything, so ask his ID number. The number is 5842189. The judge asks if it tells you something--it does. You now have to present what it tells you. There�s only one ID number in the court record: GOODMAN�S ID. Check the card to find that the number is...5842189! Present GOODMAN�S ID. Two places, two detectives murdered at the same time, and the ID number tells you that they�re both Bruce Goodman! Goodman was murdered in both the police department and evidence room at the same time! Edgeworth, as per usual, asks why he didn�t know about this. Gant says it�s his own fault. Edgeworth was brought the news earlier by Mike Meekins, the odd patrolman who showed up in Edgeworth�s office. Edgeworth asks why Gant couldn�t have submitted the report as evidence, and Gant reminds him of the second rule of evidence law: new evidence shown must be relevant to the case. The report wasn�t on the list of evidence, so he couldn�t submit it until relevancy was proven. Now that the case is thoroughly Twilight Zone, court is adjourned for another day of investigating. **************** DETECTIVE WORK 2 (5ASHESDW2) **************** �Perpetrator Officer Meekins reporting, sir!�-Mike Meekins ------------------------ WRIGHT & CO. LAW OFFICES ------------------------ Back at the office, Phoenix and Ema discuss the mysterious case for a while. Ema apparently has some new scientific trick, so you automatically head off to the parking lot. ----------------------- UNDERGROUND PARKING LOT ----------------------- Ema doesn�t think you should worry about the police department murder. She says that Lana would never erase evidence by kicking over the oil drum, but Phoenix says that there�s no way to know whether or not there were bloodstains. Ema says the situation calls for �Luminol testing fluid� and that this will be able to find bloodstains. To test for blood with Luminol, just touch the screen to spray. If there�s blood, it will glow. Spray right behind the trunk of the car, and keep spraying until the area is highlighted with a crosshair. Touch the crosshair to examine the bloodstain...something is scientifically �odd� about it. What�s odd about it? Well, if somebody was stabbed here, wouldn�t there be more blood? The amount of blood is the problem. Ema marks the bloodstains on the PARKING LOT FLOOR PLANS and the LUMINOL TESTING FLUID is added to the court record. Angel Starr suddenly shows up, so talk to her about today�s trial. Angel says she saw the crime from the security office but was afraid that wouldn�t sound �convincing� enough. However, it doesn�t change that she saw Lana stab Goodman. Talk about Detective Starr to learn the she was a detective two years ago. Any criminal she faced would confess their information, and that�s how she became known as the �Cough-up Queen�. She was fired, however, because of the SL-9 incident. SL-9 is the mysterious incident on the VICTIM�S NOTE and SWITCHBLADE KNIFE, so present either one of those to learn more. Goodman was the head detective on that case, in which the knife was the murder weapon. It was due for transferal on the day of the crime, the �cleaning day� that Edgeworth mentioned. To get more info, present GOODMAN�S ID to tell Angel about the same-guy-killed-twice mystery. She thinks it�s impossible. To get your last piece of info out of Angel, present the CRIME PHOTO. After seeing the crime, she ran to B Block and took the photo. As Ema points out, that would be five minutes after the crime. That was the hole in her testimony. Ema accuses her of lying, and Angel says that she�s had her testimony disregarded before. Talk to her about the SL-9 incident. Two years ago, it was the biggest case she�d handled. Here, you�ll see a picture of Angel, Goodman and Marshall standing around a table, as well as a fourth unidentified character. The police and prosecutors couldn�t find decisive evidence, but it was solved, and the criminal was caught and executed. However, they never did find decisive evidence, so they executed him fabricated evidence. After the case, everybody who had worked on it was either demoted or fired, including Angel and Jake Marshall, who was demoted to a patrolman. Talk about Detective Marshall. They all investigated the case, including Jake, but they were all dealt with anyway. However, he hasn�t forgotten, and neither has Angel. There was �another side� to that case that they�re both after now. The only reason she sells lunches in the prosecutor�s office is so she can investigate using her boyfriends. There�s definitely a connection between this murder and SL-9. Angel gives you a STEAK LUNCH that you can use to put Marshall (another of her boyfriends) in a good mood. It goes in the court record. Ema asks �what happened� to Marshall, and says that when he helped her sister with cases, �he used to be so nice�. Your work is done here, so go to investigate the other crime scene. Go to the security guard office via the police department entrance. --------------------- SECURITY GUARD OFFICE --------------------- The western decor suggests that this office belongs to Marshall, but he�s not here. Go back to the police department entrance. -------------------------- POLICE DEPARTMENT ENTRANCE -------------------------- Gumshoe appears, saying that they�ve caught the criminal in the evidence room stabbing and they need evidence. He then tells you to head out to the detention center if you want to know more. Go to the detention center via the Wright & Co. Law Offices. ---------------- DETENTION CENTER ---------------- It appears that the perpetrator is Mike Meekins. Talk to him about the day of the crime. He had some business that day, so he went to the evidence room. The guard office was empty; Marshall should have been there, but wasn�t in. Meekins glanced at the monitor and saw a suspicious person in the evidence room. After that, he blacked out, and came to in the detention center. Ema notices that he hurt his hand, just like Lana did at the parking lot. Talk about the victim. Meekins says that he was the victim, and didn�t know Goodman. He also has no motive or memory of committing the crime. Talk about his bandaged hand. This happened when Goodman was stabbed, but Meekins tells a mysterious story: when Goodman pointed the knife at him, he blacked out, and woke up in the evidence room alone. The body vanished! When he looked down, his hand was wounded. Present GOODMAN�S ID to continue the conversation. It jogs something in Meekins�s memory. Talk about crime details. Meekins explains that he didn�t know Goodman, so he thought he was suspicious. He entered the room and asked Goodman to display his ID card. Suddenly, Goodman pointed a knife at Meekins. Meekins lept at him in self-defence, then blacked out. Talk about reason for arrest, and Ema says they have know way of knowing that the victim was really the victim. Because the body disappeared, they don�t even know if anybody died. They told Meekins it had to be Goodman because they knew he was in the evidence room. Meekins then says there was a video tape from the security camera on the evidence room. The crime is on the tape. Go to the criminal affairs department so you can investigate the crime scene. --------------------------- CRIMINAL AFFAIRS DEPARTMENT --------------------------- You�ll meet Damon Gant here. Talk about Edgeworth to learn that he�s in an inquiry committee. They�ve had trouble with him since the Gourd Lake incident, when you found that Manfred von Karma was forging evidence. This has damaged the prosecutors� reputation, so it might be bad for anybody else found to be forging evidence--including Edgeworth. Talk about the evident incident. The evidence is saying that Goodman was stabbed in two places at once. Gant says that he can�t stand keeping secrets, but he has to keep the head detective�s trap shut. Ema suggests that you ask him what Gant was picking on him about. Examine the Head Detective at the desk in the back. He explains that Gant wanted him to check Goodman�s desk for anything that could be a clue. Nothing belonging to Goodman is still here, except a lost item report that he didn�t finish. He lost something on the day of the crime. GOODMAN�S LOST ITEM REPORT is added to the court record. Now you should check the crime scene, so talk to Gant about permission granted. He allows you to investigate the evidence room. He also gives you a guest ID so you can get in. Go to the security guard office via the police department entrance. --------------------- SECURITY GUARD OFFICE --------------------- Now that you have a card, examine the card reader, the small device on the left side of the door. The door goes to the evidence room, but it doesn�t open because somebody turned off the card reader. Officer Marshall appears; this is, as you surmised, his office. He turns on the card reader so you can get to the crime scene. Phoenix wants to ask Marshall a few questions, but he doesn�t want to talk. Don�t you have something that can put him in a good mood? Yes! Present the STEAK LUNCH you got from Angel, which will leave the court record. Through mouthfuls of steak, Marshall agrees to talk to you. First, talk about the guard office. Marshall is in charge of security for the evidence room. Phoenix mentions that Meekins said Marshall wasn�t at his station when the stabbing occurred. Marshall says that he �lost his fire for the job� when he was demoted two years ago, and was out on the highway at 5:15. He thinks that the security cameras do a good enough job anyway. Talk about Marshall to bring up that he was a detective two years ago. However, he and Angel are still investigating SL-9. Marshall says that he can�t let it go, and that�s all there is to it. Ema asks what happened in the case, and Marshall says she�s better off not knowing. The SL-9 incident is dead as of the evidence transferals anyway. Talk about the security system, and Marshall says that he only knows what two of the machines do. The security cameras are easiest to understand. If nothing happens, the footage is automatically erased every three hours. Meekins and Goodman might be on one of those tapes. Marshall goes on to say that you need an ID card to get into the evidence room, and that the card reader keeps a record of every ID that is swiped. You then see the list--there were five ID cards swiped to the evidence room that day, including one duplicate. Ema is sure that she�s seen one of the numbers on the record before. Talk about transferal, and Marshall explains that only evidence from solved cases goes in the evidence room. They�re kept under a detective�s supervision for two years, so they can reinvestigate if there�s a mistake. After two years, a case is dead forever, and its evidence goes to a vault at the police station. You now have to prove that the ID card record is linked to the murder so that you can get it. If Bruce Goodman�s ID number was on the list, it would prove a connection! Present GOODMAN�S ID--the fourth number on the list is a match. It was also used right before the stabbing. What�s weird is that Meekins said that Goodman pointed a knife at him after he asked for an ID. If he�d had an ID, why didn�t he just show it? Marshall gives up the ID CARD RECORD which will be added to the court record. Phoenix thinks it might be a good idea to show the list to other people with IDs. It�s finally time to investigate the evidence room, so go in there now. ------------- EVIDENCE ROOM ------------- Phoenix scares Ema by comparing the place to a morgue, and when Gumshoe shows up, she thinks he�s a ghost. Gumshoe asks if it�s true that Chief Gant will lend anyone 50 dollars. He says that he was put in charge of the investigation for a day, but you�re boss since you got permission. He also gives you the EVIDENCE ROOM FLOORPLANS for the court record. Talk to him about judge for a day. Gumshoe was put in charge of investigating the police department murder, but he got kicked off when it was finished so his underlings could prepare for the trial. He says he�s going to put the case to rest in his own evidence locker, one that only he can open. Talk about Edgeworth. Gumshoe says he�s in an inquiry committee to figure out who messed up in court. Edgeworth just can�t get away from the SL-9 incident--it was the �beginning of the end� for him. Talk about the evidence safe. The lockers are set so that only a certain fingerprint can open them. There�s a sensor on the other side of the handle, so the fingerprint locks are so subtle that some people don�t even know about them. The EVIDENCE LOCKER is added to the court record. Gumshoe has an ID here, so present the ID CARD RECORD. Gumshoe recognizes that the second number on the list belongs to Edgeworth! The ID CARD RECORD is updated in the court record; you now have both Goodman and Edgeworth�s names. But why would Edgeworth have come to the evidence room? Time to get down to some serious investigating. Start by examining the white cloth hanging out of the locker on the upper-left. It looks like a shirt, but Gumshoe didn�t put it there. He thinks it was opened recently because the guard usually informs the detectives about things hanging out of lockers. Move to the right and examine the open locker behind the tape and under the red light. It�s Detective Goodman�s locker; if it closed, they wouldn�t be able to get it open again. It�s empty, so the evidence must have been moved. Next, examine the glove hanging over the top of the yellow tape. That�s evidence from the SL-9 incident. The RUBBER GLOVE is added to the court record. Continue the investigation by examining the broken shards under Goodman�s locker, behind the tape. That is also from the SL-9 incident, so select to check it out closer. Ema suggests that you try to put it back together. Phoenix can figure out which is the bottom, so you�ll build off of that. Gumshoe is obviously not that smart because this really isn�t hard. First, go to fragment 5. Rotate it twice (it doesn�t matter which direction if you�re doing it twice) and combine. Go to fragment 4, rotate it twice and combine. Go to fragment 6, rotate it counterclockwise once and combine. Go to fragment 1, rotate it clockwise once and combine. Go to fragment 8, rotate it counterclockwise once and combine. Go to fragment 3, rotate it counterclockwise once and combine. Go to fragment 2, rotate it twice and combine. Finally, rotate fragment seven clockwise once and combine. That will finish the jar. However, there�s a chunk missing--was part of it stolen? The UNSTABLE JAR is added to the court record. Next, examine the paint and saw in the bottom-right corner. This is where Gumshoe created the Blue Badger. Now, examine the thing that�s been begging your attention the whole time: that bloody handprint at the end of the top row of lockers. It�s a bit worn. Maybe somebody tried to wipe it off. Ema thinks there might be other bloodstains in the room, so it�s time to break out the LUMINOL TESTING FLUID. Find it in the court record and select to spray it. Spray under Goodman�s locker to find a large amount of blood. It proves that something happened in front of the locker. Spray the bloody handprint you can already see. The locker it�s on belongs to Gumshoe! Move left and spray the locker with the white cloth sticking out of it. There�s another bloody handprint! There�s no reason for the murderer to have touched that locker. Next, you want to learn more about the Blue Badger from Gumshoe. He says that they took the Blue Badger away from the entrance after the awards ceremony. Next, time to get somebody to tell you about this SL-9 thing. Present the VICTIM�S NOTE. SL-9 was Edgeworth�s first case, so evidence must be turning up because it�s not over. Talk about the SL-9 incident. It was a violent serial killing, but the killer made a mistake which Edgeworth built his case around. That case is what started the rumors about Edgeworth. Detective Goodman was in charge of the SL-9 incident--he, the victim, took the knife from the locker! Gumshoe says that Edgeworth�s inquiry committee should be ending soon. He could tell you more about this, so go to the high prosecutor�s office via the security guard office, police department entrance, and underground parking lot. ------------------------ HIGH PROSECUTOR�S OFFICE ------------------------ The Bellboy from episode 2 shows up for a moment and then leaves. After discussing Gumshoe�s wonderfully helpful report, talk to Edgeworth about the inquiry committee. Apparently, they decided to treat it as a communications error rather than concealing evidence. Some believed he was concealing evidence, so they gave him a warning. He�s heard them giving him warnings so many times since two years ago. Talk about tomorrow�s trial. Edgeworth will still be prosecuting, but all further investigations will be directly under the authority of Damon Gant, so all he can do is wait for results. Time to gently bring the subject to SL-9, so present the ID CARD RECORD to ask why he went to the evidence room. Edgeworth says he was asked to go by Chief Gant so he could get evidence from a case that wrapped up half a year ago that he wanted kept at the prosecutor�s office. The currently unrelated SCREWDRIVER is added to the court record, although Edgeworth insists it has nothing to do with the current case. Next, present the VICTIM�S NOTE. Everything has to do with the SL-9 incident, and the dark suspicion Edgeworth was wrapped up in. Talk about allegations of forgery. The SL-9 incident was a serial killing case, and the deputy chief of police at that time was Damon Gant. Gant was the best detective they had, and Edgeworth was nervous about working with him. He did use slightly extreme methods, but only because they were dealing with a vicious murderer. He didn�t touch the evidence. Edgeworth then tells Ema that Lana wanted to know something: is she still working on scientific investigation? If so, you might have use for this: aluminum powder for fingerprinting. He gives you the FINGERPRINTING SET for the court record, as well as a file of prints for everybody involved. There was definitely a suspicious handprint somewhere, so go to the evidence room via the underground parking lot, police department entrance and security guard office. ------------- EVIDENCE ROOM ------------- Ema launches into a tutorial on fingerprinting. First, select a finger. The index finger is clearest, so touch it. Next, spread powder all over the screen with the stylus and blow into the microphone. You turn up a print, but whoever left it must have worn gloves, because there�s no pattern. Ema suggests you look for other prints. There are other prints on the locker, at the lower left. Examine them, spread the powder thickly and blow. You�ll find a clear print. The prints aren�t part of your case, and this locker belongs to Gumshoe. Match the prints to Gumshoe�s. Of course, as Phoenix eloquently points out, so what? However, there was another print. Move left and examine the locker with the white cloth stickin out, the one you found blood on. Select to check for prints. Ema mentions that any prints on the bloody handprint will have been wiped away, so you should look for prints not part of the handprint. If this were a complete hand, the fourth finger would be next to the third finger. Examine the spot where the fourth finger would be if it was there, cover the screen and blow. You�ll get a complete print. Of the prints on file, the best match belongs to...Jake Marshall! Match the prints to Marshall�s. MARSHALL�S PRINTS are added to the court record. You have Jake Marshall�s fingerprints on a bloodstain that was wiped away! Now that you have a new suspect, save and prepare for the trial. ******* TRIAL 2 (5ASHEST2) ******* �I had to do it that day. I couldn�t just stand by and let it die.�-Jake Marshall The prosecution and defence are both thoroughly confused by the nature of the case. Lana appears and restates the mystery, saying that the police are clueless. She struck up a plea bargain for the truth in exchange for no capital punishment. Your secret weapon for today is Marshall�s bloodstained prints. Edgeworth makes his opening statement: today, the evidence he presents will concern the police department murder. As the last trial was about the stabbing in the parking lot, so this one is about the stabbing in the evidence room. Edgeworth�s first witness is the suspect, Mike Meekins. -------------------------------------------------- WITNESS TESTIMONY: MIKE MEEKINS-CRIME REPORT, SIR! -------------------------------------------------- Although it�s not Meekins�s normal duty, he was asigned to guard the evidence room that day. He spotted a suspicious man on the security screen, and rushed into the room! He was only doing what he was trained to do, sir! He was suddenly attacked! He fought for his life! Then he...he did it! After that he passed out until another officer smacked him awake. -------------------------------------------------- CROSS-EXAMINATION: MIKE MEEKINS-CRIME REPORT, SIR! -------------------------------------------------- (NOTE: This is not the set order you have to press in. It�s just how I did it) You need more information, so press the statement about the suspicious man, the second one. In order to enter the evidence room, you need an ID card. Meekins�s card number is on the ID CARD RECORD: 4989596. It�s on there twice--the first time was when he went to put the Blue Badger in the evidence room. The second was when he went to retrieve it, and that was when he saw the mystery man. The ID CARD RECORD is updated in the court record. Next, why was a general affairs patrolman at the evidence room? Press the first statement. It was evidence transferal day, so many officers were given unusual orders. Meekins�s job was to guard the Blue Badger and make sure it wasn�t broken during the transferal. There were so many people running around that he relocated it to the evidence room. Next, press the last statement to ask about his unconsiousness. He was smacked awake at about 5:30, and returned the Blue Badger to the entrance. The next mysterious statement is the third one, in which Meekins is attacked. Press that statement to ask exactly what happened to him. When Detective Goodman pulled a knife, he was as surprised as Meekins. That�s when he reacted, struggling to detain Goodman, wounding his hand in the process. When he saw the blood on his hand, he grabbed Goodman�s collar. Press the next statement (�I fought for my life�) to get part 2 of this riveting account. Goodman let his guard down, so Meekins disarmed him and grabbed the knife. Goodman�s white coat was covered with blood, and he punched Meekins in the face. Only one thing now remins unclear: was the man he fought really the victim? To clarify, Meekins presents a video that Chief Gant sent him. It�s footage from the security camera in the evidence room. The judge orders Meekins to show the video, which he does. The video shows Goodman entering and opening his locker, Meekins following behind him, the two fighting, and Meekins unconsious on the floor. However, that �wriggling piece of plywood�, the Blue Badger, is in the way for most of it. The SECURITY VIDEO is added to the court record. Edgeworth says that Meekins�s testimony will suffice more than the �clearly incomplete footage�. Meekins testifies again about the identity of his assailant. ------------------------------------------- WITNESS TESTIMONY: MIKE MEEKINS-MYSTERY MAN ------------------------------------------- His face can�t be clearly seen in the video, but there�s no question that the other person was Detective Goodman, sir! I mean, he opened the locker, which required Detective Goodman�s fingerprint to do! The locker he opened is unquestionably Detective Goodman�s locker, sir! So it must be him! No-one else could have unlocked it! ------------------------------------------- CROSS-EXAMINATION: MIKE MEEKINS-MYSTERY MAN ------------------------------------------- His face isn�t in the video, but did Meekins see it? Press the first statement to ask. He did not get a good look at him. If he didn�t, how does he know so well that it was Goodman? Press the second statement to ask. The video is incomplete, so only Meekins can verify. Edgeworth asks why he�s so sure. The answer�s in the next statement: he opened the locker coded to Goodman�s fingerprint. Press this statement to learn that the only person who can open a locker is the detective it was assigned to. Maybe it wasn�t Goodman�s locker, but Meekins seems sure it was. Press the fourth statement (�unquestionably Detective Goodman�s�). Phoenix asks how he knows. Meekins heard it from the cafeteria workers, and Edgeworth can verify it from a more reliable source. This all seems to point to one place, so press the final statement. Meekins asks why the man�s face is so important if he opened the locker. The video shows him doing this. Edgeworth asks if you can find a problem with it. There is a problem, so say that. There is a contradiction that proves it may not be Goodman. You now have to point it out, using the buttons at the bottom of the screen to pause, fast-forward, and rewind the video. The problem can be best seen at timestamp 17:14:31 (that is, 5:14 PM and 31 seconds). Fast forward to then and pause. See Goodman�s locker? It�s the second from the left in the top row. If you�re not sure which one, fast-forward ahead to see it being opened. There�s a big problem with that locker: the light is on! That must mean it�s already open! Place the crosshairs over the light and present. The locker system works so that a light turns on if a fingerprint matches. The light is already lit before the victim opens the locker. The locker is open when the victim grabs the handle! The locker wasn�t even locked on the day of the crime! Edgeworth objects, saying that the lockers automatically lock themselves aftr being closed. The judge asks you why it wasn�t locked, and Ema thinks that something jammed the sensor. There�s a clue to this somewhere in the video, so you�ll look at it again. Fast-forward to the part where Goodman opens the locker, and watch closely--something falls out! This object might have jammed the locker! Pause at timestamp 17:14:42 and inch forward to the very beginning of 17:14:43. Highlight the falling object and present. You can�t be sure that the object was in the locker. What if it was inserted between the sensor and the door? The white thing was stuck in that exact place. However, it would have to be very thin, and an insulator to block the current. You will have to present the object that blocked the door. It would have to be an object found near the scene in the evidence room. Of those, only one could be inserted in a door, and only one is made of an insulating material: the RUBBER GLOVE. Present that. It has a tag that reads �SL-9 incident� so it must have been in Goodman�s locker. With the glove stuck, anybody could have opened the locker! However, all you�ve done is prove the possibility that it might not have been Goodman. Meekins testifies again about this. ----------------------------------------------- WITNESS TESTIMONY: MIKE MEEKINS-MYSTERY MAN (2) ----------------------------------------------- There�s one other thing that proves the man was Detective Goodman, sir! To enter the evidence room, one must use their ID card! When an ID card is used, there�s a record of it! At the time of the crime, the detective had used his card! The ID CARD RECORD is, of course, in the court record. However, the judge is confused (wow) about something: why were so few people in the evidence room on transferal day? Edgeworth says that this evidence room is only for specific cases: violent crimes against police department staff. Only a few cases there were up for transferal. ----------------------------------------------- CROSS-EXAMINATION: MIKE MEEKINS-MYSTERY MAN (2) ----------------------------------------------- Hmm...Goodman�s ID was found in the same place as his body--the underground parking lot. If he entered the evidence room at the same time that he was at the prosecutor�s office, he wouldn�t have had the card! More evidence to prove this is GOODMAN�S LOST ITEM REPORT. Goodman lost something important enough to fill this out, so there�s a high probability that he wasn�t carrying his card! Present GOODMAN�S LOST ITEM REPORT at the fourth statement (�used his card�) to bring this up. Quite simply, this means that the man Meekins encountered was not Goodman, but whoever stole his ID card! Edgeworth apparently congratulates you (why is that always so sinister?) and offers to summarize your case. At 5:15 PM, Mike Meekins entered the evidence room, but inside was not Detective Goodman. This is proven by two points: the locker in the evidence room was already unlocked, and the victim lost his ID card. Thus, if the victim in the video is fake, then the murder in the evidence room is also fake! That means that the only crime was in the underground parking lot, where a witness saw Lana Skye wield a knife against the victim! GOD DAMMIT! There are still questions, but a guilty verdict seems inevitable. When all else fails, object! Raise an objection when prompted. Phoenix says that it cannot be proven that the murder in the parking lot is unrelated, mainly because of the large amounts of blood you found in the evidence room. For further examination, you�ll need more witnesses, but Edgeworth doesn�t have any more. Phoenix decides it�s time to bring out the secret weapon. He requests a specific witness who would know the truth about what happened. You now have to say their name--it is, of course, Jake Marshall. Select Marshall and present. Edgeworth agrees to comply, and court goes to thirty minute recess. Lana tells you that you�ve �figured everything out� and Ema gets mad at her for not telling them anything. Gumshoe appears (�hope I�m not interrupting anything�) carrying the files for the SL-9 incident; apparently Lana asked for them in your name. The SL-9 INCIDENT FILES are added to the thoroughly bloated court record. According to the files, both Ema and Lana were involved. Two years ago, the police classified it as the SL-9 incident, but the rest of the world knew it as the �Joe Darke killings�. This makes Ema very distraught. Read through the file: Goodman, Angel, Marshall, Gant, Ema, and Lana--everybody connected to the current case is involved in the SL-9 incident. You�ll get a chance to save, and then the trial starts again. After Phoenix, Edgeworth, and the judge wade through a swamp of Marshall�s pseudo-cowboy crap, he testifies. ----------------------------------------------------- WITNESS TESTIMONY: JAKE MARSHALL-THE DAY OF THE CRIME ----------------------------------------------------- Marshall�s job was to keep a wary eye on that bone orchard (evidence room). They said he was supposed to make rounds three times a day, but that ain�t his style. Besides, the room�s protected by two security systems, anyway. If he remembers right, he was at a street-side saloon at the time it went down. He�s just an innocent travelin� man, so if you�re out of ammo it�s time he hit the trail. ----------------------------------------------------- CROSS-EXAMINATION: JAKE MARSHALL-THE DAY OF THE CRIME ----------------------------------------------------- Alright, Marshall claims he wasn�t at the scene of the crime. However, you discovered his prints on the bloodstain at the evidence room! Present MARSHALL�S PRINTS at the statement about the roadside saloon. Phoenix says that Marshall wasn�t at the security room, but they called him to testify anyway. Why? Because you found his fingerprints at the scene! Marshall says they�re from the rounds he makes of the room occaisonally, but the prints were on a wiped bloodstain! Marshall testifies to explain about the bloodstained prints. ---------------------------------------------------------- WITNESS TESTIMONY: JAKE MARSHALL-BLOODSTAINED FINGERPRINTS ---------------------------------------------------------- Like Marshall said, it�s only natural for his fignerprints to be in the evidence room. One of them just happened to be in the same place as the bloodstained handprint. The murderer touched the locker where his fingerprint was by chance, so the bloodstain and fingerprint are completely unrelated. Or didn�t you know the murderer was wearing gloves? ---------------------------------------------------------- CROSS-EXAMINATION: JAKE MARSHALL-BLOODSTAINED FINGERPRINTS ---------------------------------------------------------- Time to prove that he�s lying. First, get some more info on why his fingerprints would be in the room. Press the first statement. The fingerprints are from his rounds, and also, the locker they were on is his. MARSHALL�S PRINTS are updated in the court record. Continue by pressing the final statement, the one about the murderer wearing gloves. Phoenix asks how he knows, and Marshall says he keeps up with the reports. The bloodstain left on Gumshoe�s locker had no fingerprints. The only logical conclusion is that the murderer, wearing gloves, happened to place his hand on Marshall�s fingerprint. Marshall goes on to say that the only reality is the SECURITY VIDEO and that if he�s not there, you can�t incriminate him. A statement is added saying �too bad it wasn�t me in the video�. Press it, as always when a new statement appears. If you want to tie Marshall to the crime, the video is the only evidence you have. However, it�s full of blind spots. If somebody knew the exact position of the camera, he could leave the room completely invisible. If there is evidence to prove Marshall was present in the video, you have to show it know. Select to show evidence, and you�ll be watching the SECURITY VIDEO again. Fast-forward to near the end of the tape, timestamp 17:15:12. Remember that Marshall�s locker is the farthest to the left on the upper row, where his prints were found. If you look at it through most of the video, it�s the same as the others, but if you look at it on this timestamp, there�s a white cloth sticking out! If something is in Marshall�s locker, the lock would have prevented anybody but him from putting it in there. If Marshall had been able to open the locker, he would have to have been there! Gumshoe mentioned that some people on the force don�t know about the locks. Highlight the white cloth and present. Marshall says that you can�t prove he opened the locker. You now have to prove he did. Remember that only one detective can open a certain locker. Nobody else could have opened it, so present the EVIDENCE LOCKER to bring this up. Marshall seems very distraught now, so Phoenix explains with the EVIDENCE ROOM FLOORPLANS. There�s nowhere to hide in the evidence room, but Meekins didn�t see Marshall. You�ll know have to use the plans to show where Marshall was. After the fight, Goodman mysteriously disappeared. Marshall probably knew where the camera would show so he could hide. Goodman�s outfit is white--maybe Marshall disguised himself as Goodman, opened the locker, fought Meekins, then escaped and hit the disguise! If that�s so, and Goodman was the victim, Marshall would have been standing where the victim was. Highlight the blue V and present. The �victim� was Marshall dressed as Goodman! Meekins didn�t see Goodman�s face, and didn�t know him. Also, when Meekins asksed for ID, Goodman pulled a knife. He reacted this way because he was actually Marshall, and to show the ID would have been to give away his disguise. Marshall now wants hard, decisive evidence that he dressed up as Goodman (wierdly enough, the last 2 cases also involved people disguised as other people). Of course you don�t have anything like that. Phoenix remembers what Mia used to say: �think outside the box!�. Don�t look for evidence why Marshall was in disguise, but evidence that came about because he was in disguise. Marshall didn�t originally intend to open his locker at the crime scene, but he did anyway. The fact the the cloth is sticking out means that he probably wanted to put it inside. You�ll be looking at the SECURITY VIDEO again, trying to prove what exactly the white cloth is. The cloth is probably Goodman�s suit, but why did he have to put it away? Remember Meekins�s testimony: Goodman�s coat was covered with blood. Marshall would have to hide the jacket if there were bloodstains on it! Go to timestamp 17:14:56, toward the end of the fight. At this point, bloodstains on the white jacket are clearly visible. Place the crosshair over them and click present. Marshall entered the evidence room disguised as Goodman, but didn�t expect Meekins to barge in. When asked for ID, Marshall pulled a knife, and Meekins panicked. During the fight, the white coat Marshall was wearing was covered in blood. He couldn�t walk out like that, so he hid the coat in his locker. Marshall admits that you�re right and agrees to testify as to what he actually did. ------------------------------------------------------ WITNESS TESTIMONY: JAKE MARSHALL-MARSHALL�S CONFESSION ------------------------------------------------------ Marshall had to do it that day; he couldn�t just stand by and let it die. He stole the detective�s ID and dressed like him. He planned to take out the evidence. He wasn�t expecting Officer Meekins. He knocked him out and managed to escape. He knew which areas wouldn�t be caught on camera. There wasn�t any murder in the evidence room at 5:15. However, large amounts of blood were found on the evidence room floor-- this probably came from Meekins�s bandaged hand, but it seemed like too much for that. While cross-examining a confession may seem sort of mean, you have to do it anyway. ------------------------------------------------------ CROSS-EXAMINATION: JAKE MARSHALL-MARSHALL�S CONFESSION ------------------------------------------------------ First of all, what is �it�? Press the first statement (�had to do it�). It is the SL-9 incident that was going to completely end with transferal that day. By sneaking into the evidence room, Marshall wanted to steal the evidence and have one more look at it, refusing to let the case be closed. Go on to press the second statement (�stole the detective�s ID�) to ask why Marshall dressed as Goodman. He would have to make it look like Goodman was carrying out a transferal or he�d be arrested. He stole Goodman�s ID card the morning of the incident, and left it on the floor in the prosecutor�s office parking lot. Press the third statement (�wasn�t expecting�). Marshall planned to be in the evidence room for five minutes, but Meekins came in during that time. Marshall was surprised and pulled a knife, Meekins panicked, and the fight ensued, knocking Meekins out. Press the fourth statement (�managed to escape�). Marshall researched the camera earlier, although his coat was bloodied in the fight with Meekins. If somebody had been in the security room, he would have been found out, so he hid the coat in his locker. Finally, press the fifth statement (�wasn�t any murder�) to ask about the large amounts of blood. However, the victim was Marshall, and he�s still alive...it turns out that he didn�t even steal the evidence. The locker was already empty--somebody else stole the evidence earlier! Phoenix asks Marshall why he did this. Stealing a detective�s ID and attacking a police officer is no small offence. Marshall, however, says that he�ll do anything to get an answer from his case, and adds a statement that just begs to be pressed, in which he says he can�t forget the SL-9 incident. Press it. The case was solved two years ago, and Joe Darke was convicted for serial murder. Marshall says that something happened at the trial that nobody will talk about, but he doesn�t know what it is. Phoenix thinks he should present a real reason. Read over the SL-9 INCIDENT FILES, specifically the page the lists the victims. Look over all of them. None of the names seem to mean much, except the last one. Neil...Marshall! Could they be somehow related? Go to the new statement and present the SL-9 INCIDENT FILES. Marshall says that he�s sure Edgeworth knows the name. Two years ago, he won the King of Prosecutors award. Neil Marshall handled the SL-9 incident before Edgeworth, until he was killed. He was also Jake Marshall�s brother. Neil was investigating the Darke murders with Damon Gant, who at that time was Chief Detective, and the group of detectives Marshall was one of worked under them, desperate to find Joe Darke. Neil fought Darke and was killed, though he left behind evidence for the first time. They used this to prosecute him and the case was closed. However, Marshall is sure that nobody could have beaten his brother in a fight. He�s convinced that there�s more to his brother�s death than in the records. At least now you know what happened at the police department: Marshall tried to steal the evidence on the last day the case was open. Now that you know there was no murder in the evidence room, Edgeworth tries to pull the same trick he did earlier. Nobody was killed in the evidence room, so the real one must have been Lana stabbing Goodman at the underground parking lot. A verdict wasn�t reached at that trial. This was only because the simaltaneous murder in the evidence room was a mystery. Now that that�s been cleared up, Lana is the only remaining suspect. Just when she�s about to be declared guilty, Ema shows up with a �scientific objection�. She was in shock when she heard that the SL-9 incident was the Joe Darke Killings, but she knew what Marshall was doing and that his handprint had nothing to do with the crime. That left only the other handprint, the one on Gumshoe�s locker. No prints were found there, and Ema looked again but couldn�t find anything. The traces of blood there are the only clue left, so you have to find something wrong with the handprint on that locker. Is there something you�re missing? Choose to object, and you�ll have to present the problem. Wait a minute! In the video, in front of Gumshoe�s locker, was...the Blue Badger! If that was in the way, how did the handprint get there? Present the BLUE BADGER PANEL. The Blue Badger is not on the floor plans, but when he is put in, he completely blocks Gumshoe�s locker. Ema suddenly appears, saying that if the print couldn�t have been put there after the Blue Badger was set down, it would have to have gotten there before! This means that on that day, in the evidence room, blood was spilled twice! Once time was captured on tape, dropping a tiny amount of blood. The rest of the blood must have come from that other time. The person who spilled the blood the first time...was Detective Goodman! The murder in the security tape is a fake, but the blood on the locker is unexplained! Edgeworth asks when the first murder took place, and the judge asks you to present evidence to prove the first incident occurred. There�s only one piece of evidence in the court record that mentions a time half an hour before 5:15. Check the ID CARD RECORD. Somebody with the ID 7777777 entered the evidence room at 4:20 PM. Meekins brought in the Blue Badger at 4:50 PM, so it would have had to have been before that. It couldn�t have been Edgeworth because he wouldn�t have had time, so it must have been 7777777. Present the ID CARD RECORD. Edgeworth explains that it couldn�t have been him because of the time constraints. 7777777 must have been the real murderer, and since Goodman isn�t on there before 4:50, he must have gone in along with the real murderer. However, Edgeworth says that that number belongs to somebody of a high rank, and they can�t identify them without a charge. Marshall has another question for Lana about the SL-9 incident: in that trial, did they use legitimate evidence? Lana takes the stand, saying that they did what they had to to get a conviction, even if it involved forging evidence. This causes such a stir that the trial is postponed until the following day. So evidence was forged in the SL-9 incident...save your progress and prepare to get to the bottom of this. **************** DETECTIVE WORK 3 (5ASHESDW3) **************** �Criminals don�t mind playing foul, why should we?�-Lana Skye ------------------------ WRIGHT & CO. LAW OFFICES ------------------------ Now that everything in this case leads back to the SL-9 incident, let�s find out what the hell it is. Ema opens the sequence with something mysterious: Lana wanted Darke convicted so badly that she used �what happened to� Ema. On the night of the last killing, Niel Marshall�s murder, Darke tried to kill Ema. Neil was trying to save her, and since she was there, she was a witness. Talk about the SL-9 incident. Two years ago, about this time of day, there was a terrible thunderstorm. Ema was alone in her sister�s office when Darke burst in with a knife. Niel showed up and fought with Darke, when lightning struck and the lights went out. A bolt of lightning lit up the office again, burning a permanent picture into her mind. Talk about after the incident. Ema wasn�t able to remember the moment of the stabbing, so that�s the part Lana forged. Edgeworth then used the fake evidence to prosecute Darke, starting the rumors. After the case, Lana became the cold, indifferent person she is today. Talk about the permanent picture. In the instant the crime occurred, Ema saw Darke looking down on Neil, raising his knife. After that she passed out, and woke up in Lana�s arms. She couldn�t bring herself to testify about that incident, so she drew a picture, but it didn�t help. Once it was over, she decided to be a scientific investigator so Lana wouldn�t have to falsify evidence. There�s still something bothering Phoenix, though. Talk about something puzzling. Why would a serial killer come running into Lana�s office, chased by a prosecutor? Darke had been taken in for questioning that day, and tried to run away halfway through the interview. He ran to Lana�s office because it was right across from the elevator. Wait a minute. A chief prosecutor, working across from the elevator? Ema says that two years ago, Lana was a detective. After the SL-9 incident, she was transferred to the prosecutor�s office. Phoenix wants to talk to Lana about this, so go to the detention center. ---------------- DETENTION CENTER ---------------- Phoenix cuts right to the point and asks Lana for details about her change of jobs. Talk about today�s trial. Lana says it�s not surprising that evidence was stolen, and that everything is connected to SL-9. That trial wasn�t fair, even though Ema always thought Lana would stick to the truth. The fact is, there was no murder in the evidence room, and if what Angel Starr said is true, Lana�s the killer. Talk about Detective Lana Skye. She was an amazing detective two years ago, cracking cases with Chief Gant, who then worked crime scenes. They solved crimes before the cops could even file the paperwork. Lana always wanted to be a prosecutor, and became a detective to gain crime-scene experience. Gant helped clear up the SL-9 incident, after which he became Chief of Police and arranged Lana�s transfer. Talk about the Darke investigation. Two years ago she was second-in-command of the SL-9 investigation, working under Chief Gant. The two of them shared an office an led a team of detectives, including Bruce Goodman, Jake Marshall and Angel Starr. They were sure Darke was the killer, so they asked him to come in for questioning. That was when he escaped and tried to kill Ema. Lana was the first one on the scene, so talk about first one at scene. Gant and Neil were questioning Darke when he panicked and fled to the office shared by Gant and Lana. When Lana arrived, she found three bodies and blood. Two of them, Darke and Ema, were unconsious, and Neil was dead. She panicked, carried Lana out of the room, and placed Darke under arrest. Everyboydy in that incident is also in this one, and no way is that a coincidence. Marshall went to great lengths because he didn�t agree with the resolution. Everybody in the case is still living with it. Phoenix decides to go investigate the Chief�s office, the crime scene, so go to the police department entrance. -------------------------- POLICE DEPARTMENT ENTRANCE -------------------------- Standing around here, you�ll find Jake Marshall. He�s off to an interrogation, and says you can�t go into the evidence room today. Phoenix presses Marshall to tell him exactly what happened. Talk about the Darke trial. Something was fishy from the beginning; the facts and evidence were inconsistent. For example, that broken SWITCHBLADE KNIFE, the murder weapon. The blade didn�t match the wound, so the knife could well have not been the murder weapon. Many of the facts were probably covered with forged evidence. Talk about Prosecutor (Neil) Marshall. He was one of the best in his business. (Jake) Marshall had just become a detective, and was working with his brother on the Darke case, when Neil was killed. He had just won King of Prosecutors that day--the day of the evidence transferal, when there was a bad thunderstorm. Somebody must have tried to stop him, because Goodman was dead and the locker was empty. Talk about scars to learn that every detective in the case was �taken care of� except one. Angel Starr was fired and Marshall was demoted. Only Goodman was left so as not to seem suspicious. Marshall believes that Damon Gant and Lana Skye were the ones behind the purge. Talk about Gant & Skye. They were the most famous detectives on the force, and the SL-9 incident was a big step for them both. Gant became Chief of Police while Lana became Chief Prosecutor. Since that she was never the same. Marshall doesn�t know her secret, so that�s his whole story. He learned in court that Edgeworth wasn�t his enemy: he used false evidence, but somebody else gave it to him without his knowing. That was Damon Gant. Marshall leaves, but you now have a few things to talk to Gant about. Go to the criminal affairs department. --------------------------- CRIMINAL AFFAIRS DEPARTMENT --------------------------- Everybody�s in a meeting; Lana�s statements have caused total chaos. The chief detective gives you �permission� to talk to Gant in his office, so go to the Chief�s office. -------------- CHIEF�S OFFICE -------------- Ema tries to play the pipe organ and alerts Gant to your presence. Gant tells you to look at a picture on the wall. It�s of him, Neil, and Lana, on the day Neil won King of Prosecutors. Something doesn�t seem right with the picture. The GANT TEAM PICTURE is added to the court record. Gant refuses to let you investigate, so you end up outside at the Police Department entrance. -------------------------- POLICE DEPARTMENT ENTRANCE -------------------------- Obviously, there was something in the office that Gant didn�t want you to see, so of course you want to see it. Go inside to the Criminal Affairs Department. --------------------------- CRIMINAL AFFAIRS DEPARTMENT --------------------------- Gumshoe is taking a break from being coffee boy at the meeting. He asks if you�ve seen Edgeworth, who apparently is under fire from both prosecutors and police. It�s because of the false SL-9 evidence. Talk to Gumshoe about Edgeworth�s crisis. Edgeworth didn�t know the evidence was forged but he�s responsible for it anyway under prosecuting law. Also, the rumors are getting to him now that he�s been accused of lawbreaking. Gumshoe�s afraid that Edgeworth might crack under pressure. Talk about the SL-9 incident. The only evidence Darke ever left was during the murder of Neil Marshall. Gumshoe doesn�t actually remember the fatal error, though...maybe the murder weapon would help. Talk about Darke�s crimes. Darke was an ordinary businessman. However, one day he hit someone with his car. He killed somebody who saw that, killed another kid that saw that crime, killed someone who saw him burying the bodies, and killed one other victim before turning himself in. That was when he fled questioning, attacked Ema, and killed Neil. For more information, present the SWITCHBLADE KNIFE. Suddenly, Gumshoe remembers Darke�s incriminating evidence. Talk about the murder weapon. The knife belonged to Joe Darke. The blade is broken, and the broken tip was inside Neil�s wound. It matched Darke�s knife. NEIL�S AUTOPSY REPORT is added to the court record, and the SWITCHBLADE KNIFE is updated. Phoenix then asks Gumshoe for permission to get into Gant�s office/crime scene. Gumshoe�s ID can unlock the door, but he�d be fired. There might be something that can change his mind, though. However, you don�t have it now, so go to the High Prosecutor�s office via the police department entrance and underground parking lot. ------------------------ HIGH PROSECUTOR�S OFFICE ------------------------ Edgeworth is writing something when you arrive but quickly throws it on the floor. Examine the wad of paper under the desk. You�ll distract Edgeworth while Ema grabs the paper, only to find that it�s a LETTER OF RESIGNATION. Edgeworth says he�s tired of the job, and you keep the LETTER OF RESIGNATION for the court record. Talk to Edgeworth about forged evidence. He admits to using false evidence for a guilty verdict. Even if he didn�t know about, he broke a �bond of trust� and it�s his fault. Talk about tomorrow�s trial to ask if he�s going to be there. The case is coming back to haunt him, as well as an EVIDENCE LIST. Apparently, most other evidence lists are twice as long as this one. Edgeworth became prosecutor after Neil Marshall died, determind to use the evidence he was given to prove the suspect guilty. Talk about the day of the crime. On the day Goodman was murdered, he attended the King of Prosecutors ceremony, and was given the award. He was asked to take something back to the office by Chief Gant: that SCREWDRIVER. Present the PROSECUTOR TROPHY. Edgeworth says it has no meaning to him anymore, and Ema notices something odd: the other trophy in the court record is different. The other trophy is not an actual trophy, rather, it�s the one in the GANT TEAM PICTURE. Present the GANT TEAM PICTURE to ask Edgeworth about the inconsistency. The trophy Neil is holding in the picture has a broken knife on it as well as a broken shield. That was the official trophy used then. There�s a story behind it, too. Talk about the prosecutor trophy. It�s an ancient Chinese tale. The word �contradiction� in Chinese is written using characters that mean �halberd� and �shield�. In the kingdom of Chu, an arms dealer came before the king, offering two items: a halberd he said could cut any armor, and a shield that could stop any weapon. When the king pointed out the obvious contradiction, the merchant was speechless. The broken sword and shield in the trophy represent the merchant�s items. However, two years ago, Chief Gant took the halberd out without explanation, leaving Edgeworth with only a shield. The PROSECUTOR TROPHY is updated in the court record. The LETTER OF RESIGNATION could do wonders with Gumshoe, so go to the underground parking lot. ----------------------- UNDERGROUNG PARKING LOT ----------------------- You�re going somewhere important, but Angel Starr stops you here anyway. She thinks you�re just dredging up the past and says that it won�t change anything. Talk about the Darke investigation. They trailed him for half a year, and Jake Marshall became obsessed after his brother died. This made Lana more desperate too. The SL-9 team was lead by the legendary duo of Lana and Gant. Talk about after case closed. They were shocked about how it turned out. Evidence they�d found would vanish, and false evidence would appear. After the case, all of them but Goodman were fired without explanation. Angel believes that Lana was being used. Talk about the legendary duo. Gant and Skye were the best detectives on the force, although even then Gant may have forged evidence. Everybody looked up to Lana, and she was very concerned with Marshall�s loss. After that, however, she turned cold. Talk about being �used�. Angel thinks that Gant put Lana in the Chief Prosecutor�s position to control the prosecutor�s office. She doesn�t know how Lana was controlled, but says there must be a reason for her to be acting so cold. Go to the criminal affairs department via the entrance. --------------------------- CRIMINAL AFFAIRS DEPARTMENT --------------------------- Gumshoe still won�t let you in Gant�s office, so let�s change that. Shock him by presenting the LETTER OF RESIGNATION. The detectives betrayed Edgeworth by giving him faulty evidence, and now he�s taking the rap. Gumshoe gives you his ID to investigate Gant�s office; he barely has a career anymore anyway. GUMSHOE�S ID replaced the LETTER OF RESIGNATION in the court record. Go to the Chief�s office. -------------- CHIEF�S OFFICE -------------- Gumshoe follows you inside, knowing he�ll be fired if anyone sees you. Talk about the chief�s office. The other desk belonged to Lana, and that was where Ema was waiting two years ago. Nobody uses it now, as Gant has a strict policy of preserving the crime scene. Talk about Chief Gant. After meandering for a while, Gumshoe asks if you think he�s a suspect. Phoenix ignores the question, though he obviously does. Now it�s time to start investigating. First off, examine the safe next to Gant�s desk. A code needs to be entered into the safe, so select to input the number. Now, think over what you know. 1: Gant is a suspect. 2: Your best lead is the first murder in the evidence room. 3: Whoever committed that crime had the ID number 7777777. 4: They were also an executive officer. It follows logically that Gant may have that ID number, and that it might be his safe number as well. Input 7777777 and the safe opens. This, of course, means that Gant has that number and entered the evidence room that day. Examine the safe again. Inside you�ll find two odd pieces of paraphernalia: a shard from a broken vase, and a piece of leather bearing a handprint. They might be evidence, but Gumshoe won�t let you take them unless you can prove they�re relevant. Another mysterious thing about this office is the paper Gant was reading when you entered the first time. Examine the desk to look for it. It�s a list of evidence, from the SL-9 incident, the same one Edgeworth mentioned that�s half as long as it should be. Gant was hiding some SL-9 secrets! The EVIDENCE LIST is added to the court record. Now, to prove the relevency of the safe�s contents. That piece of a vace looks remarkably similar to that UNSTABLE JAR from the evidence room. Present the UNSTABLE JAR to see if it fits. Select to assemble the fragment, and you�ll be back on that same screen from the last sequence. Rotate the fragment counterclockwise once and combine. It fits, proving that Gant was knowingly hiding evidence! The piece also has a line of blood on it. The UNSTABLE JAR is updated in the court record. Next, it�s time to use Ema�s scientific expertise on the crime scene. Move left and select to spray the LUMINOL TESTING FLUID. Spray behind Lana�s desk to find a pool of blood. Two years ago, Neil Marshall was killed here. Now, check the EVIDENCE LIST and rotate it to the other side. You�ll see a picture on the back of a man preparing to stab another man. Examine it--looks a lot like the SL-9 stabbing. Examine the Gant team picture (the one in the office, not the one in the court record). After winning the award, Neil took a photo with Gant and Lana, then went to question Darke. He was stabbed a few hours later. Now, it�d be a good idea to fingerprint that piece of cloth from the safe, so present the FINGERPRINTING SET. Select the middle finger, cover the screen with powder and blow into the microphone. You get a clear print, and it looks most like...Ema�s! Match the prints to Ema Skye. Phoenix lies and says there aren�t clear prints. Gumshoe takes him aside. Neither of them know how to explain Ema�s prints, but they decide to keep it hidden. The STRIP OF CLOTH is added to the court record. Suddenly, Gant shows up! Bus-ted! He tells you all to leave, and says that Gumshoe is fired. He wants to talk to Ema, though, so after parting ways with Gumshoe, Phoenix goes to talk to Lana at the detention center. ---------------- DETENTION CENTER ---------------- Lana claims to have told Phoenix everything she can, however, that�s bullcrap, as she basically hasn�t told you anything...except that she murdered Detective Goodman. Talk to her about keeping quiet. Phoenix says it�s not that Lana won�t tell the truth, it�s that she can�t. This is because she�s afraid of somebody. Lana asks who it is she�s so frightened of. Of course, due to what Angel said and everything else you�ve found, it could only be Damon Gant. Present Gant, then talk about Damon Gant. Phoenix asks why he would hide his crimes. Lana and Edgeworth are being punished for Gant�s forging of evidence. Edgeworth didn�t know about the falsifications, so only Lana and Gant could have touched the evidence. Lana wants you to prove that Gant falsified evidence. The proof is that there was half as much evidence as there should have been, and that Gant had SL-9 evidence in his safe. Present either the UNSTABLE JAR, STRIP OF CLOTH or EVIDENCE LIST as proof. Lana admits defeat. She can�t disobey the chief�s orders, even if it means being found guilty for murder. Three days ago, she had no choice but to follow orders and participate in Goodman�s murder. Talk about �orders�. That day, Lana was ordered by Gant to dispose of Bruce Goodman�s body. When she opened the trunk, she found Darke�s SWITCHBLADE KNIFE in Goodman�s body. She took it out and stabbed his corpse with EDGEWORTH�S KNIFE. In the process, she cut her hand, got blood on Goodman�s shoe, and was seen by Angel Starr. Talk about Darke�s knife, and Lana says she hid the knife to prevent the reopening of SL-9. She then called Ema to tell her what had happened. After getting the orders, she called Jake Marshall to help her hide Goodman�s death. However, he had his own ideas and tried to steal the evidence. Tomorrow�s trial is now your only chance to get to the bottom of this, so save your game and prepare. (Wait a minute. There�s only one black guy in the game, and he�s a cold- hearted, conniving, manipulative killer? Something about that seems a little racist.) ******* TRIAL 3 (5ASHEST3) ******* �No matter how tragic the truth may be, it would be an even greater tragedy to avert one�s eyes from it.�-Miles Edgeworth �We�re not defenders of justice. We�re merely keepers of the law.�-Damon Gant Neither Lana nor Ema can be found today, but Edgeworth appears. He�s figured out 7777777 as well, and says that if Gant hasn�t been charged with anything, no doubt remains. Phoenix knows Lana�s hiding something, and has to drag it out of her. Here�s the way it stands: this trial will concern the events of SL-9. Lana was forced to hide Goodman�s murder by Gant, who is holding blackmail over her head. If you can use the SL-9 incident to prove that Gant has something on Lana, you can prove him guilty. Chief Gant appears at the beginning of the trial with a proposal: Lana has asked to speak directly to the court. She makes a request for an immediate end to the trial, and confesses again (yawn). Phoenix objects and says that the defence does not acknowledge the plea. And what does the bitch do? She fires him. The judge is a bout to hand down a verdict when Edgeworth saves your ass yet again, saying that a ruling at this point would be premature as the prosecution has not made a complete case. He says that the sudden confession means that a deal was struck as a cover-up. He then decides to call Ema Skye as a witness. Edgeworth asks her to testify about what happened two years ago. ----------------------------------------- WITNESS TESTIMONY: EMA SKYE-TWO YEARS AGO ----------------------------------------- Ema was waiting in her sister�s office that day. A man came running in and took her hostage. Neil Marshall rescued her, but she�ll never forget what she saw that instant! The man raised up his knife, and...and stabbed Mr. Marshall in the chest...! ----------------------------------------- CROSS-EXAMINATION: EMA SKYE-TWO YEARS AGO ----------------------------------------- Start by pressing the fourth statement, in which Ema says she�ll never forget what she saw. Ema gives a more detailed account: Mr. Marshall jumped on Darke, then the lights went out. The lightning flashed on and burned an image in her mind. She told the head detective, Bruce Goodman, about what she saw that instant. This is interesting, so select to hear more. The words wouldn�t come out when they talked, so she drew a picture. Ask about the picture. It�s important, but Edgeworth didn�t get it on his evidence list. Ema adds a statement to the testimony, saying she drew a picture, but it seems to have been lost. Wait a minute! You have that picture! Examine the EVIDENCE LIST and rotate it to the back, then examine the picture you see there. It�s exactly the image Ema saw during that flash of lightning--on the back of the SL-9 evidence list. It�s safe to assume that this is the picture Ema drew for Detective Goodman. Present the EVIDENCE LIST at the new statement (about the picture) to prove to Edgeworth that it exists. Ema says it is the picture, and Edgeworth says that only the prosecutor in charge of the case should have that list. The two lists are different, so Edgeworth�s mysteriously short list must have been incomplete! The two lists fit together. Only half the SL-9 evidence reached Edgeworth! Also, if the lists fit together, then more of the drawing might be on the back of the other list! There is something on the back of Edgeworth�s list. It�s the Blue Badger! Maybe the head detective used this as his blueprint. The EVIDENCE LIST is updated in the court record. Ema agrees to testify about the picture, although she�s acting kind of strangely. ----------------------------------------- WITNESS TESTIMONY: EMA SKYE-EMA�S PICTURE ----------------------------------------- This is the picture Ema drew two years ago. The flash of lightning was so bright all she could see were shadows. After that, she fainted. The picture shows exactly what she saw that instant! ----------------------------------------- CROSS-EXAMINATION: EMA SKYE-EMA�S PICTURE ----------------------------------------- Well, incredibly confident statements such as the last one (�exactly what I saw�) are always subject, so press that one. Ema is sure this is the exact scene she saw, not influenced by any detectives. However, there is clearly a contradiction. To find it, check the picture again (you don�t have to go to the court record, just go to statement four). Look closely at the knife that the attacker, presumably Joe Darke, is holding. Its tip is square, not pointy, meaning that the knife was broken. In NEIL�S AUTOPSY REPORT, however, it says that the tip of the knife was found in the wound, meaning that the knife could only have broken after Neil was stabbed. Present NEIL�S AUTOPSY REPORT at the final statement to bring up this contradiction. You now have to show the contradiction in the photo. The problem is the knife, broken before it should be. Highlight the knife in the crosshairs and click present. If Neil was stabbed only once, as the report states, the knife could not yet have broken! The knife couldn�t have broken beforehand, either, because then the tip wouldn�t have wound up in the wound. Probably, then, this knife tip was the forged piece of evidence! Phoenix also believes that there is a lie somewhere in the events of the day. Ema, however, seems sure that the man was holding a broken knife. If that�s true, the SWITCHBLADE KNIFE wasn�t the murder weapon. There might have been another knife, so select that there is another one. You now have to find the real murder weapon. Think over the events of Neil�s last day. He received the trophy, questioned Darke, then went to save Ema and was killed. Only one of those events involves his obtaining a knife. Remember that the old design of the prosecutor�s trophy including a halberd? The old trophy can be seen in the GANT TEAM PICTURE. Neil is holding a trophy with a broken knife on it! The murder weapon was the broken knife from the trophy! Present the GANT TEAM PICTURE. When Neil fought Darke, the broken knife was the only weapon he had. Edgeworth now points out that if the murder weapon had belonged to the victim, the main raising the knife would not have been Joe Darke, but Neil Marshall! However, Neil was the one who died! Suddenly, Ema remembers something, and asks for the EVIDENCE LIST. She is sure that it was her, not the head detective, that drew the picture of the Blue Badger. The list wasn�t torn in half when the picture was drawn; in fact, the two pictures go together. Ema now testifies again about this. ---------------------------------------------- WITNESS TESTIMONY: EMA SKYE-EMA�S RECOLLECTION ---------------------------------------------- When Ema saw that man raise his knife, she panicked, and rushed toward both of them. She thinks she...she knocked away the man with the knife. Just then there was another flash of lightning, and that�s when she saw...the Blue Badger! He wasn�t in the room, but she�s sure she saw his shadow! This is very odd, considering that the Blue Badger didn�t exist two years ago. Suddenly, Lana appears, telling you to stop the examination. Edgeworth makes her shut up and she is detained, allowing Phoenix to cross-examine. ---------------------------------------------- CROSS-EXAMINATION: EMA SKYE-EMA�S RECOLLECTION ---------------------------------------------- Start off by pressing the final statement, when Ema says she saw his shadow. She didn�t actually see his face, but what�s important is what the shadow really was. Something else caused her to think of the Blue Badger. Select that you just might know. Something in this very courtroom is the �Blue Badger� that Ema saw, so you�ll have to present it. Hmm...look at the UNSTABLE JAR. If you rotated it right, it might look a bit like the Blue Badger�s head. Present the UNSTABLE JAR. Now, with that wonderful Blue Badger theme in the background, you are faced with the task of rotating the jar so it looks like the Blue Badger. First, use either of the arrows to rotate the jar 180 degrees, so the top is on the bottom. Next, slowly scroll up on the right-hand dial until you see the Blue Badger. Once you have the resemblance, present it. It�s shadow looks exactly like the Blue Badger! Edgeworth asks what you point is, and what is different now that you know about the jar. The only thing this could possibly change is the location, so that�s the answer. The jar is in Damon Gant�s office, but the body was found by Lana Skye�s desk. The stuggle between Darke and Neil happened not in Lana�s office, but in Gant�s! Why would the murderer move the body between the two offices? There would have to be a reason for him to go to the trouble. In Ema�s testimony, she said that she knocked away the man with the knife. The impact of the man against the wall caused the jar to shatter. If a man was pushed toward that wall, he would have hit the knife, sticking out of the suit of armor! And if the man had a broken knife, it would have been Neil Marshall! The only thing that could have happened was... That Ema accidentally pushed Neil onto the sword! Given the circumstances, it had to have happened this way. Lana jumps in again, saying that Darke obviously killed Neil and that you can�t accuse Ema. Edgeworth says she moved the body so nobody would know what Ema did. However, you have no evidence, and anyone who could testify is dead. The only possibility, then, is that the victim left a message. Neil didn�t die instantly, instead, he may have left the name of his killer. Select that the killer�s name is in the evidence. Among the SL-9 evidence, there is only one likely candidate. It was there, at the scene of the crime. A piece of it bearing blood lines resembling writing was hidden. That�s right, present the UNSTABLE JAR. A message is on the surface of the jar, made of dots that were once lines. You now have to connect the dots to form the murderer�s name. It�s not that hard, but: Connect the two dots farthest to the left, then connect them to the dots right next to them. Connect the dots on the next shape to form a reflection of the line that was there. Finally, connect all the remaining dots on the left. Once you have an E, an M and an A, present. She didn�t mean to do it, but in the end, Neil Marshall�s killer was Ema Skye. Damon Gant appears to brighten everybody�s day, saying that now Edgeworth has used forged evidence to prove an innocent man�s guilt. Phoenix objects: Joe Darke was a serial killer, and he did kill five other people, so he is in no way innocent. However, sentencing a man to death is still something that can�t be done on false evidence. Basically, Edgeworth is f***ed. The judge declares a recess, so you get a chance to save. Gumshoe appears with a book for you from Lana, it�s about evidence law. She says you�ll need it to take �HIM� on. EVIDENCE LAW is added to the court record. Read it and remember the two rules. Gumshoe believes the trial is over now that Edgeworth and Ema are ruined, but Lana didn�t kill Goodman (remember that?). She stuck a knife in his dead body to cover up Gant�s actions. The real killer is Damon Gant...let�s kick his ass! With court back in session, the judge is afraid that Edgeworth might have manipulated witnesses. Edgeworth offers a solution: for the rest of the trial, Phoenix will call all witnesses. You want to bring out the real murderer, who of course is Dick Gumshoe. No, really, it�s pretty obvious: call Damon Gant. Phoenix makes it clear that they want to figure out Gant�s role in the murder, and Gant says that he has �weapons� at his disposal. For example, he can refuse to testify, although this is risky, according to Edgeworth. Gant, however, will testify. ------------------------------------------- WITNESS TESTIMONY: DAMON GANT-SL-9 INCIDENT ------------------------------------------- As Gant recalls, he and Neil were questioning Darke that day. To make a long story short, they slipped up. That power outage didn�t help either. When he went to his office, he found Lana there. Apparently she had already...�arranged� the crime scene. As you can see, he had nothing to do with the �forgery�. ------------------------------------------- CROSS-EXAMINATION: DAMON GANT-SL-9 INCIDENT ------------------------------------------- You have one clear goal here: prove that Gant was involved in the rearranging of the crime scene. Press the fourth statement first, about Lana arranging the scene. Phoenix asks how Gant knows it had already been done. Gant says the body was already by Lana�s desk, even though the suit of armor had stabbed the prosecutor. Press the fifth statement, in which Gant says he had nothing to do with the forgery. The forgery had taken place before Gant entered the office. There is, however, evidence that ties him to the forgery! Remember how you found part of the crime scene jar? IN GANT�S SAFE? He willingly hid it! Exposing this will require Phoenix to admit that he stole things out of the Chief of Police�s safe, but contradictions take precedence over all. At the final statement, present the UNSTABLE JAR. Several pieces of evidence were found in Gant�s office, including the UNSTABLE JAR, EVIDENCE LIST and STRIP OF CLOTH. These concealed pieces of SL-9 evidence are proof that Gant took part in the forgery! However, Gant says you still could have forged the evidence. Even Gumshoe, who was there, is not exempt. Gant testifies about the existence of the evidence in his office. ------------------------------------------------ WITNESS TESTIMONY: DAMON GANT-EVIDENCE & FORGERY ------------------------------------------------ Let�s see, what was it now? A jar fragment...and a list? For all Gant knows, you could have planted them in his office. Anyway, you can�t prove �when� those pieces of evidence were discovered. If they were found after Darke was convicted, then they�re worthless. There�s no reason he�d participate in a forgery. Rearranging the crime scene wouldn�t help him out in any way. ------------------------------------------------ CROSS-EXAMINATION: DAMON GANT-EVIDENCE & FORGERY ------------------------------------------------ The last statement is at issue. This situation would have benefitted him: Lana finds that Ema killed Neil. Gant offers help forging the crime scene, and in exchange, Lana becomes his pawn in the prosecutor�s office. Also, the case�s resolution makes Gant Chief of Police. Press the last statement (�wouldn�t help me out�). Phoenix says it would help him out: he�d become Chief of Police! Gant says he was already in line to become Chief before the incident. The only other possible motive is that he did it for someone else (Lana). Gant adds a statement, saying that he wouldn�t be an accomplice if there was nothing in it for him. Press the new statement. Gant still refuses that he helped someone out, so select to point out his accomplice. Phoenix says that Gant would help someone out if it did benefit him. The person who he helped forge evidence Lana Skye. If Ema had fallen victim to unlucky circumstances, Lana would want to help her out. If she asked Gant to help, he would have profit as an incentive. When Lana was Chief Prosecutor, Gant would be able to use her as a puppet, holding over her head the threat of revealing that the evidence was forged. Gant asks for proof of this, and says that Lana has not testified to this effect. Phoenix and Edgeworth know, however, that Gant killed Goodman, and is making Lana take the rap. You will have to present evidence that ties Gant to the murder of Goodman. The evidence relates to the evidence room. Gant�s ID is 7777777, the exact ID shown at the time when Goodman entered with the murderer. Present the ID CARD RECORD. Gant says you can�t prove it�s his, but of course it�s the number that opens his safe! Edgeworth demands an explanation. Gant did go to the evidence room, but he went alone; he hadn�t seen Goodman in days. However, you can prove he did! You�ll now have to prove that Gant met Goodman. Well...Goodman was in the evidence room. He had lost his ID card. He came in with Gant, so it�s logical to believe that Gant let him in. Present GOODMAN�S LOST ITEM REPORT. There was other no way Goodman and the murderer could have entered the evidence room. If Gant had lent Goodman his ID, it would have been on his body. Gant does that awesome screaming thing they always do when you prove them guilty. YES! The murder was likely committed impulsively, otherwise it wouldn�t have been at the police department. After the murder, he contacted Lana Skye to dispose of the victim�s body. However, since neither he nor Lana left their respective offices, how did he move the body? You�ll have to present proof. Remember how Edgeworth said that Gant told him to move a piece of evidence? Gant used Edgeworth to move the body! He called Edgeworth to the Police Department to move a piece of evidence. That evidence was the SCREWDRIVER, a key piece of proof in the AI-16 incident. Present the SCREWDRIVER. The only reason Gant told Edgeworth to move evidence from a closed case was so he could use his car to get the body to Lana Skye so she could dispose of it. Angel Starr�s photo is not of the body being stuffed in the trunk, but of it being taken out! All right! Gant�s all but guilty now! But...he�s suddenly invoking his right to refuse to testify! ASSHOLE! Gant says that if you had conclusive proof you would have presented it by now. Select that you have no proof yet; no sense kidding yourself. Gant leaves, and the judge is about to penalize Phoenix when Edgeworth objects. There is someone who still knows the truth behind the case, and she hasn�t testified yet. There is no evidence, so the truth must be proven with testimony. There is another witness, right in the room! Phoenix is the one calling witnesses today, so he must give the name. A woman who knows the truth, hasn�t yet testified, and is in the room: call Lana Skye. Gant returns, telling Lana that if she testifies, Ema will be found guilty for the murder of Neil Marshall. The court then goes to recess. After a scene, save your game and return to the courtroom for the final chapter of this drawn-out, convoluted saga. Lana takes the stand and testifies. --------------------------------------------------- WITNESS TESTIMONY: LANA SKYE-GANT & THE FABRICATION --------------------------------------------------- Lana worked alongside Gant for years...there�s no truth to this �blackmail� theory. She fabricated the evidence two years ago all by herself. When she found Prosecutor Marshall�s body, she rearranged the crime scene. Her only motivation was to get Darke convicted. It had nothing to do with Ema. --------------------------------------------------- CROSS-EXAMINATION: LANA SKYE-GANT & THE FABRICATION --------------------------------------------------- You�ll want to know more about her rearranging of the crime scene, so press the fourth statement (�rearranged the crime scene�). Edgeworth asks what she found when she arrived at the crime scene. The broken knife from the trophy was stuck in Neil�s body. Phoenix says this couldn�t be true as Neil died from the suit of armor, but Lana says he only thought that was �possible�. He didn�t actually find it. The other murder weapon, the SWITCHBLADE KNIFE, was on the floor a short distance away. Lana is trying to cover up lies, of course. She adds a statement explaining what she did to rearrange the scene: she planted the tip of Darke�s knife in Neil�s wound, then moved the body. Press the new statement, and you�ll be presented with two questions to ask Lana. Select �why did you move the body� to ask where it was before she arrived. It was by Gant�s desk. Lana adds another new statement saying that the pieces of the jar somehow threatened her plan. Press this statement to find out why... The jar was already broken when she found the crime scene, and it was obvious that the jar broke during their struggle. Ema is sure there is a contradiction, though. And there is! Neil wrote Ema�s name on the jar. He couldn�t have done that if it was already broken! In other words, Neil would have had to have died before the jar was broken. Present the UNSTABLE JAR to bring this to light. Lana will testify again about the jar and the blood. --------------------------------------------------- WITNESS TESTIMONY: LANA SKYE-GANT & THE FABRICATION --------------------------------------------------- Lana immediately noticed the blood traces on the jar, but it was dark in the room and she didn�t have time to check it out. To be safe, she wiped away the blood. The fragments were large, so she�s sure she got them all. All she could think about was wiping them clean before they were discovered. --------------------------------------------------- CROSS-EXAMINATION: LANA SKYE-GANT & THE FABRICATION --------------------------------------------------- A very easy cross-examination. Lana says that she got all the pieces and wiped away all the blood, but there was one that was found in Gant�s safe! Present the UNSTABLE JAR, endless source of contradictions, at the fourth statement (�got them all�). Lana was sure she wiped all the blood, but the piece in Gant�s safe still had blood on it! The only explanation is that Chief Gant got to the crime scene before Lana! Lana could not just have missed a piece because she was an ace detective. If Gant was at the scene first, why did he hide the fact for years? Damon Gant arrived at the scene prior to the witness. He broke the jar and hid one of the pieces. This is definitely fabrication of evidence. The only possible explanation for what happened... ...is that Gant fabricated the scene so that it looked like Ema was the culprit, Lana sought his aid, and she became his puppet! Phoenix suddenly realizes they might still be in Gant�s trap, and thinks that Ema�s murder of Neil may also be a lie. He asks Lana to testify one more time about what she really saw. ----------------------------------------------- WITNESS TESTIMONY: LANA SKYE-ACTUAL CRIME SCENE ----------------------------------------------- When Lana arrived, she found Mr. Marshall�s body impaled on that suit of armor�s sword. Ema and Darke were lying unconscious on the floor nearby. When Lana saw what happened, she thought Ema...did it. That�s why she erased all the evidence that linked her to the murder. She had Chief Gant help her remove the body from the sword and carry it...but if it all really was a fabrication, Ema might be innocent! ----------------------------------------------- CROSS-EXAMINATION: LANA SKYE-ACTUAL CRIME SCENE ----------------------------------------------- This is it! The FINAL cross-examination in the game! If this were an action game or an RPG, this is where I would write FINAL BOSS. There is no actual cross-examination, i.e. you don�t cycle through statements, press, or present. It�s a long sequence of proof and decision. Edgeworth asks Lana if she has proof the body was impaled on the sword. Lana says she gave it to Phoenix this morning. The proof is a picture of the crime scene as she first saw it. First, you�ve got to find that picture! Think! What did Lana give you this morning? She gave you a book on EVIDENCE LAW. Examine the book and rotate around to the back cover. Examine the back cover just below the logo. This will open it, and inside is a picture! It shows Neil Marshall, impaled on the sword, as nobody but Lana saw him. LANA�S PICTURE is added to the court record. The piece cut from Neil�s vest may be the STRIP OF CLOTH from Gant�s safe, the one with Ema�s fingerprints on it. That must mean she is the real murderer...or does it? A normal cross-examination is about to begin when Gant shows up to stop it. He says he�d like to speak in his defence, but Edgeworth says that by refusing to testify, he�s forfeited that right. Gant isn�t worried, as he says he can still present evidence. According to Gant, Phoenix has a decisive piece of evidence that can prove who knocked over Neil. If you present that now, though, Ema will be proven guilty! If you withhold the evidence, you�ll be punished by the inquiry board! What do you do? DO NOT present the evidence or Lana will be guilty automatically. Instead, say that you cannot show evidence. Gant knows you took the conclusive evidence out of his safe, but Phoenix says he doesn�t know what Gant is talking about. Gant thinks you�re holding it because you know whose fingerprints are on it. He then admits that he cut off the cloth and put it in his safe. Gant then says what really happened. He arrived at the crime scene first, and it occurred to him that he could use the situation to control Lana. Lana asked for help, and Gant told her how to incriminate Darke. Then, Edgeworth used that fabricated evidence to prove that Joe Darke was guilty. Gant his the evidence in his safe for insurance. However, Edgeworth says that if Gant fabricated everything else, who says he didn�t fabricate the blood as well? That�s why Gant kept the STRIP OF CLOTH, which he demands that Phoenix show. The time has come, so select to show evidence. Present the STRIP OF CLOTH. On the day of the crime, Gant cut that cloth fom the victim�s vest. Edgeworth knows it is conclusive and asks for analysis, but Gant says Phoenix already knows whose prints are on there. You know who the prints belog to, so present Ema Skye. This proves that Ema did it, and since Phoenix concealed evidece, he�ll be fired. However, first, he has to clear up who really did it! The cloth proves who killed Neil! You�ll have to present contradicting evidence. Check LANA�S PICTURE again, specifically the part where Neil�s jacket has been cut away. There�s blood on the undershirt! If Gant had cut the cloth after Neil died, the shirt would be clean, and the cloth would be covered in blood! Present LANA�S PICTURE! The prints prove that Ema pushed Neil, but there is no proof that he was impaled on the sword! That means that whoever arrived first picked up the prosecutor�s unconscious body and impaled it on the sword! He then broke the jar to leave a clue, and arranged the scene to make it look like Ema had done it! That person was Gant, who moments ago admitted that he cut away the cloth personally before Lana arrived! He has been proven to be the murderer in both the Goodman killing and the SL-9 incident! Gant objects, saying he refutes Phoenix�s allegations. What the hell? He says that the piece of cloth is illegal evidence as Phoenix concealed it, and thus, it cannot be used to prove him guilty! When asked, say that you did not illegaly conceal the piece of cloth! You will have to present evidence...so close to victory! Think now! What do you have that discusses legal and illegal evidence? What do you have that would prove that you couldn�t present the STRIP OF CLOTH at that time? Present EVIDENCE LAW and watch the end of Damon Gant unfold at last. Rule 1: no evidence shall be shown without approval of the police department. Since the STRIP OF CLOTH was stolen from Gant�s safe, it of course was not approved. Rule 2: unregistered evidence must be relevant. At the beginning of the trial, before LANA�S PICTURE was shown, the piece of cloth was irrelevant cloth! Gant laughs and claps endlessly, and then explains his motive for the Goodman murder. For two years, Jake Marshall had been trying to get something on Gant, recruiting Angel Starr and Bruce Goodman to reinvestigate the case. Goodman turned him down, so Marshall went to steal the evidence himself. Goodman came to Gant later that day to file a lost item report. The two went to the evidence room, where Goodman spoke out, saying that there were too many unanswered questions. Gant found the knife and stabbed Goodman to prevent himself from being found out in SL-9. Gant was so busy mopping up the blood that he didn�t notice the bloody handprint on Gumshoe�s locker. He then put the body in Edgeworth�s car, after taking all the SL-9 evidence. Gant cordially says goodbye, and Lana appears. Phoenix explains that Ema never hurt anyone, and that Gant betrayed her the whole time. Lana says she will recount everything she did for the past two years. She then thanks Phoenix and actually smiles. The judge says that she will be put on trial for evidence fabrication later, then regarding murder, declares her NOT GUILTY!!! �No one can change the past. The only thing we can do is strive to make up for our mistakes. Why must we make up for out mistakes, you ask? Because in so doing...we can find out way back to our path. And once we�ve found our path, we can move on from our past mistakes toward a brighter future.�-Phoenix Wright Enjoy the nice ending cutscene, including the above quote which possibly defines Phoenix�s character. Edgeworth is still sulking, believing that he can�t fight crime alone. Lana says he wasn�t alone, that he was working with Phoenix and that neither of them could have figured it out on their own. You�ll now have to present some evidence. Remember the picture that Ema drew? How Phoenix and Edgeworth each had one half of it? Present the EVIDENCE LIST on which the picture was drawn. Enjoy the remainder of the final scene, including one last chance to shout �objection!� through the microphone. And that�s it!
