    The Silver Star Special Express**
[00:02] PW
    was hijacked by the
    fugitive Avery Richman.
[00:06] PW
    His demand?
[00:07] PW
    A retrial of the murder case
    in which he was found guilty.
[00:11] PW
    I happened to be on the train
[00:13] PW
    and took the role of defense lawyer
    in this unprecedented trial.
[00:16] PW
    But a passenger who could've been
    a crucial witness was murdered,
[00:21] PW
    and the corpse disappeared
    right before our eyes.

[01:57] J
    Court is now back in session for
    the trial of Avery Richman.
[02:04] Sai
    This trial can't go any further.
[02:07] Sai
    Mr. Gale was murdered, and he vanished.
[02:10] Sai
    And there is no other new testimony to hear.
[02:13] PW
    Our last hope is gone!
[02:20] Rich
    How could this be?
[02:23] Maya
    Mr. Richman...
SIGN    Hold it!
[02:26] Gum
    Hold it, pal!
[02:28] Bo
    Detective Gumshoe?
[02:29] Rich
    Regina?
[02:30] Reg
    I'm so sorry, King!
[02:32] Reg
    This man insisted...
[02:34] Gum
    I heard everything.
[02:36] Gum
    I'm Dick Gumshoe, a police detective.
[02:40] Rich
    A policeman?
[02:41] Gum
    Gale Gaelic's body didn't vanish, pal!
[02:44] PW
    What?
[02:45] Gum
    It actually just showed up!
[02:51] PW
    G-Gale?!
[02:53] Maya
    How?
[02:56] PW
    The body teleported?
[02:58] Maya
    What? That's impossible!
[03:00] Gum
    But it showed up here just now.
[03:03] Gum
    It fell through the ceiling.
[03:05] PW
    The ceiling?
[03:06] Gum
    Also, you guys are the ones who vanished!
[03:09] Maya
    Huh? What do you mean?
[03:11] Gum
    I'm in Car 3, and it's
    connected to the engine!
[03:15] Gum
    Car 1 and the dining car
    disappeared somewhere!
[03:18] PW
    N-No way!
[03:19] Maya
    We disappeared?
[03:22] Gum
    Sheesh, first whole cars disappear, then a
    missing corpse falls from the ceiling,
[03:26] Gum
    and then there was the flying human soul...
[03:28] Maya
    Human soul?
[03:28] PW
    That's Maya's field.
[03:30] Maya
    My field is spirit channeling!
[03:32] Gum
    Anyway, hear me out.
[03:34] Gum
    It happened when the lights went out.
[03:36] Gum
    Far away, I saw a raging
    flame drifting in the dark...
[03:39] Sai
    A soul? Ridiculous.
[03:41] Gum
    I saw what I saw!
[03:43] Maya
    A flame in the dark?
[03:46] Maya
    Nick, didn't we see a flame, too?
[03:51] PW
    Yeah, that could be it.
[03:52] Gum
    What? You guys saw a soul, too?
[03:55] PW
    No. What we saw was a birthday cake.
[03:58] J
    A birthday cake?
[04:00] J
    Ah!
[04:01] PW
    Yes. A little past 8 PM,
[04:03] PW
    a birthday party was held
    here in the dining car.
[04:08] Maya
    Oh, a show's beginning!
[04:12] Maya
    Look, Nick!
[04:18] VegaMytonbred
    Happy birthday, Grandmother.
[04:21] Mara
    My! Thank you so much, Vega.
[04:26] Mara
    Thank you all as well.
[04:27] Mara
    I feel so fortunate to have
     made it to eighty-seven.
[04:32] Mara
    Oh, my! You're putting on a wonderful show!
[04:44] PW
    O-Oh no! Get a fire extinguisher! Hurry!
[04:52] Maya
    What now?!
[04:54] J
    Yes, that did happen.
[04:55] PW
    A raging flame in the dark...
[04:58] PW
    That might've been what Gumshoe saw.
[05:00] Sai
    Impossible! He couldn't have seen the
    fire in the dining car from Car 3!
[05:04] PW
    But if that was what he saw,
[05:08] PW
    that'd explain the disappearance of our cars.
[05:11] Sai
    Elaborate.
[05:12] PW
    The cars didn't vanish.
[05:14] PW
    They were rearranged.
[05:16] J
    R-Rearranged?
SIGN    Railroad Report
    Vol. 10
[05:18] PW
    This railroad used to be a small local line.
[05:21] PW
    And it still has remains of old freight
    stations that were used for lumber transport.
[05:26] PW
    First, the lights were turned off,
[05:28] PW
    making it impossible for us
    to see what would happen.
[05:32] PW
    Then the train was slowed down
    before it reached the Point B,
[05:37] PW
    and the couplings in front of
    Cars 1 and 3 were disconnected.
[05:47] Maya
    The train split up!
[05:49] PW
    This was when the fire broke out,
[05:52] PW
    and that's what Gumshoe saw...
[05:54] PW
    Our cars running along
    a parallel freight line.
[05:57] PW
    And right when we fell behind Car 3,
[06:02] PW
    Point B arrived.
[06:10] Maya
    We switched!
[06:11] PW
    After that, the Silver Star came to a halt.
[06:14] PW
    Other than to let you board this train,
[06:17] PW
    that stoppage had one more objective.
[06:19] PW
    How was that?
[06:27] Rich
    Yes, we needed to stop to reconnect
    the coupling between the cars.
[06:33] Rich
    I knew I picked the right lawyer.
[06:35] Rich
    I'm deeply impressed.
[06:37] Gum
    You really rearranged the cars?
    Why do something so crazy?
[06:42] Rich
    You'll find out eventually.
[06:44] Sai
    It was just a rich man's whim?
    I knew it'd be something pointless.
[06:51] PW
    No, there very much was a point.
[06:54] Sai
    What?
[06:56] PW
    Thanks to it,
[06:58] PW
    I've identified Gale's killer.
[07:03] Sai
    Killer?
[07:05] PW
    The answer is quite simple.
[07:07] PW
    If the body before Gumshoe
    right now is the real Gale,
[07:12] PW
    that'd obviously make the one
     we saw before a fake.
[07:16] PW
    The killer murdered Gale right there
    and hid his body in the ceiling!
[07:21] Gum
    Th-This is the crime scene?
[07:26] Reg
    That lightning just now... that's what made
    the corpse fall out of the ceiling.
[07:30] PW
    I'm sure the killer didn't
    expect that to happen.
[07:35] Gum
    Just when was this man murdered?
[07:39] PW
    It's quite likely that it was
    before the cars were rearranged.
[07:44] Gum
    But I've been here the entire time!
[07:51] PW
    There was a point in time when
    nobody was in the car, remember?
[07:56] J
    That's right! Dinner!
[07:58] Gum
    Ah!
[07:59] Reg
    True. Nobody could've seen it happen
    if it was during dinnertime.
[08:03] Rich
    Then you mean the corpse
    we saw in Car 1 was...
[08:07] PW
    A fake.
[08:08] PW
    Gale had already been murdered
    and hidden in the ceiling by then.
[08:12] J
    But the victim was a Car 1 passenger,
[08:16] J
    and nobody passed through the
    dining car while we were eating.
[08:21] PW
    Still, Gale and the killer
    must have moved there.
[08:24] Sai
    Nonsense. Speak in facts, not conjecture.
[08:27] Sai
    Is there anyone who can testify the victim
    went through the dinner car around then?
[08:35] Maya
    Of course, nobody would remember
    everyone they passed in the train.
[08:41] PW
    But in this case, just pointing
    out the possibility is enough.
[08:45] PW
    Because...
[08:46] PW
    There is only one person
    who could have done this!
[08:49] J
    Wh-Who is that?
[08:52] PW
    The killer... is you,
[08:56] PW
    Tristan Turnbull!
[09:01] J
    The killer is Prosecutor Turnbull?
[09:04] Rich
    What?
[09:06] Sai
    This isn't even worth arguing.
[09:08] PW
    It could only have been you.
[09:10] Sai
    I rushed there after I
    heard a body had been found.
[09:14] Sai
    Later, the body vanished.
[09:16] Sai
    That's all I know.
[09:19] PW
    But that corpse was a fake.
[09:21] PW
    In fact, that guy wasn't even dead!
[09:25] Rich
    He wasn't dead?
[09:27] PW
    Someone dressed like the
    victim and played dead.
[09:30] PW
    It was your accomplice!
[09:32] PW
    That would explain everything.
[09:35] PW
    You were the one who checked
    the body back then.
[09:39] PW
    You didn't let us get close to it
[09:41] PW
    and then closed the door to
    "preserve the crime scene."
[09:44] PW
    While you were buying time by the door,
[09:47] PW
    the "corpse" took off the victim's clothes
[09:52] PW
    and hid behind the door,
    where nobody would check.
[09:58] PW
    When Mr. Richman eventually opened
    the door, the corpse was gone.
[10:02] PW
    And while we stood there shocked,
    he sneaked out from behind the door.
[10:07] Rich
    B-But that's such a cliche!
[10:09] J
    And just who was this accomplice?
[10:11] PW
    Back then, there was someone who
    wasn't nearby when we were outside,
[10:16] PW
    but suddenly showed up when we went in.
[10:20] PW
    It was you, Rick!
[10:22] Rich
    Is it true, Rick?
[10:27] PW
    Rick?
[10:28] Rick
    I was wondering if there was
    anything I could do to help.
[10:31] Maya
    It was Rick?
[10:32] Rich
    Why, Rick?
[10:34] Rich
    Why would you do this?!
[10:37] Rick
    I'm terribly sorry, King.
[10:39] Rick
    I've been cooperating with American
    law enforcement since a year ago.
[10:44] PW
    What?
[10:45] Rich
    A year ago...?
[10:47] Sai
    Fool.
[10:49] Rick
    I was asked to procure a gun with your
    fingerprints on it for a large sum of money.
[10:54] Maya
    Gun? You don't mean...
[10:57] Rick
    I did as I was told.
[10:59] Rick
    And a few days later,
[11:01] Rick
    Secretary-General Cashanova was shot during
    that ceremony, and you were arrested!
[11:07] Rich
    That whole murder was a
    setup to get rid of me?
[11:12] Rick
    Yes. The one who shot
    Cashanova was Gale Gaelic.
[11:16] Rick
    He fired from near you on purpose,
[11:18] Rick
    and the cops who frisked you
    planted the evidence on you...
[11:23] Rick
    Calling the pistol I stole the murder weapon.
[11:29] Pist
    N-No way! The United States Prosecutor's
     Office hatched a conspiracy like that?
[11:34] Cyl
    Do you have anything to say?!
[11:38] Rick
    I'm truly sorry!
[11:40] Rick
    I just couldn't tell you!
[11:42] PW
    And today, you were once
    again ordered to cooperate
[11:47] PW
    by Prosecutor Turnbull.
[11:48] Rick
    Yes. It was after we hijacked the
    train and just before the trial began.
[11:55] Rick
    He told me to do as he said if I didn't
    want the king to find out I betrayed him.
[12:00] PW
    Before the trial began?
[12:03] PW
    I see! It was then!
[12:04] Sai
    Give me twenty minutes.
[12:06] Sai
    I need to prepare.
[12:08] PW
    In those twenty minutes,
[12:10] PW
    you approached Rick and forced
    him to help with your plan!
[12:14] Rich
    So that was the trick behind
    the body's disappearance.
[12:19] Sai
    Do you have proof that I cut a deal with him?
[12:22] PW
    Th-That's...
[12:23] Sai
    Of course you don't.
[12:25] Sai
    Besides, why would I kill that
    Gale guy in the first place?
[12:30] Sai
    I had absolutely nothing to do with him.
[12:33] Sai
    Or this bizarre conspiracy that
    fugitive has conjured up in his mind.
[12:43] ME
    That's not going to fly.
[12:50] PW
    Edgeworth?!
[12:53] ME
    It's been a while, Turnbull.
[12:55] Sai
    Edgeworth! Why are you...
[12:58] Maya
    Huh? You know each other?
[12:59] ME
    This is Avery Richman's court record,
[13:02] ME
    and it contains your name.
[13:05] ME
    "In charge of building
    the prosecution's case,
[13:07] ME
    Tristan Turnbull."
[13:08] Rich
    I-In charge?
[13:10] Rich
    You were?
[13:12] ME
    Now you can't hide behind the
    excuse that you were unrelated.
[13:16] Sai
    Why, you...
[13:17] ME
    Anyway, according to this record,
[13:20] ME
    you canceled the summons of a witness
    at your own discretion one year ago.
[13:25] ME
    That witness's name... was Gale Gaelic!
[13:28] PW
    What?
[13:30] ME
    Tonight's trial has made it clear
    that he was a crucial witness.
[13:34] ME
    Why, then, did you deliberately
    avoid calling that witness?
[13:37] Sai
    I concluded that he wasn't important
    to the trial a year ago!
[13:40] ME
    Are you trying to say you're that incompetent?
[13:45] PW
    Or maybe calling that witness
    would've been bad for other reasons.
[13:50] Rich
    And were those reasons really...
[13:51] PW
    You were afraid of the truth coming
    out in the trial one year ago.
[13:55] PW
    Which proves you were at the
    center of that conspiracy!
[14:00] ME
    Back then, you never set foot in court.
[14:03] ME
    But behind the scenes, you laid the
    groundwork to entrap Mr. Richman.
[14:09] Gum
    Those two are working
    together across the Pacific!
[14:12] Gum
    I'm gonna cry, pal!
[14:13] Chief
    You disappoint me, Turnbull.
[14:18] Sai
    Chief?
[14:19] Maya
    Who's that?
[14:20] Rich
    The chief prosecutor.
[14:22] Rich
    The man at the very top of
    America's justice system.
[14:25] Chief
    Our courts are built on the motto
    of always doing the right thing.
[14:29] Chief
    And Turnbull, you dragged them
    through the mud.
[14:33] Chief
    That deserves the harshest punishment.
[14:34] Sai
    Please wait!
[14:36] Sai
    I was told to convict Richman so he
    could be thrown out of the country!
[14:39] Sai
    I only did as the top brass ordered!
[14:42] Chief
    That's exactly what I'm talking about.
[14:44] Chief
    Fools who meekly follow unjust orders
    deserve the harshest punishment.
[14:50] Chief
    Your superior, who gave you that order,
     spilled the beans earlier.
[14:55] Chief
    He said he colluded and conspired with the
    Commerce Council, who found Cashanova a pain.
[15:02] Sai
    What?
[15:02] ME
    Gale Gaelic, who you let go,
    was an assassin hired by the Council!
[15:08] PW
    An assassin?
[15:09] Chief
    There was no justice in this deal.
[15:12] Chief
    Only blood money.
[15:13] Sai
    What?
[15:15] ME
    Either way, you played
    a part in a conspiracy.
[15:18] ME
    You clearly broke the law!
[15:20] PW
    Mr. Turnbull, you have no right
    to judge anyone.
[15:24] PW
    You are...
[15:25] Bo
    ...an enemy of the law!
[15:35] Rich
    A year ago, I came to
    believe you were my enemy,
[15:38] Rich
    but it seems I was mistaken.
[15:45] PW
    Tell us...
[15:46] PW
    Everything.
[15:48] Sai
    It was soon after we departed.
[15:54] Sai
    You were invited, too?
[15:57] Gale
    I was just as surprised.
[16:00] Gale
    But I sense the hand of God behind this.
[16:04] Sai
    What do you mean?
[16:05] Gale
    This whole year, one thought
    has never left my mind.
[16:08] Gale
    That there just wasn't enough hush money.
[16:12] Gale
    Don't you agree?
[16:13] Sai
    Are you threatening me?
[16:15] Gale
    Being an assassin is hard work,
[16:17] Gale
    so I've been thinking of
    switching to blackmail.
[16:21] Gale
    Great idea, right?
[16:23] Sai
    Just like him, I too felt
    the hand of God at play.
[16:27] Sai
    I thought it was the perfect
    chance to silence him forever.
[16:32] Sai
    Let's talk this over.
[16:33] Sai
    Car 3 should be empty right now.
    Let's move there.
[16:37] Maya
    Spikey, spikey!
[16:37] Sai
    It was around 6 PM.
[16:40] Sai
    We went at a time when lots of people would
    be going in and out of the dining car,
[16:44] Sai
    which helped divert any attention from us,
[16:46] Sai
    and we easily made it to Car 3.
[16:50] Sai
    And then...
[16:51] Sai
    In one of the Car 3 compartments,
    I murdered that man.
[16:56] Gum
    Yikes. That's my room.
[16:59] PW
    And you hid the body in the ceiling.
[17:04] Sai
    But...
[17:06] Sai
    I never foresaw what was to happen.
[17:09] PW
    The train was hijacked,
    and a trial was set to begin.
[17:12] Sai
    If people realized he was missing,
[17:14] Sai
    the train would be searched,
    and the body found.
[17:17] Sai
    I had to prevent that!
[17:19] ME
    So you put on a miraculous show of the
    body vanishing in front of their eyes.
[17:24] Sai
    It was a bid to buy time!
[17:26] Rich
    The room was in flames back then.
[17:29] Rich
    What was that?
[17:30] Sai
    I ordered him to set fire
    to it when he was found.
[17:38] Sai
    It was to make sure nobody
    approached him before me.
[17:49] Sai
    Edgeworth...
[17:50] Sai
    I've always hated that look in your eyes.
[17:53] Sai
    It was to escape that very
    look that I went to America.
[17:56] PW
    No matter how far you run,
    you can never escape yourself.
[18:02] J
    That's enough!
[18:04] J
    Train crew! Restrain Tristan Turnbull
     and his accomplice, Rick!
[18:13] PW
    Thank you, Edgeworth.
[18:15] PW
    You worked truly fast.
[18:17] ME
    I did it to find the truth.
[18:19] J
    I shall hereby hand down the verdict!
SIGN    Not Guilty
[18:25] J
    Not guilty!
[18:29] PW
    Wh-What now?
[18:30] Rich
    Everyone leave this car at once!
[18:34] Rich
    A bomb will blow it to
    smithereens in three minutes!
[18:38] PW
    A b-bomb?!
[18:41] Rich
    Not even I can stop it now.
[18:48] PW
    Mr. Richman!
[18:49] Rich
    Mister Wright, you have my deepest
    gratitude for proving my innocence.
[18:53] Rich
    But as one who defiled the
    Richman name, I cannot live on.
[18:58] PW
    You were planning on this all along?
[19:01] Rich
    Whether the retrial declared me innocent
    or guilty, it wouldn't change anything.
[19:07] Rich
    Just in case, I set up a time bomb
     in this dining car!
[19:13] Maya
    Just in case what?!
[19:14] ME
    Oh, so that's why you rearranged the cars
    so the dining car would be at the end.
[19:20] ME
    So that you could disconnect
    its coupling and die alone!
[19:23] PW
    Say what?
[19:25] Rich
    You people are far too good for me.
[19:29] Rich
    Hurry up, and get to Car 1.
[19:36] Maya
    The verdict was a mistake!
[19:38] Maya
    We proved that, so why?
[19:41] Sai
    America's justice system is perfect!
[19:43] Sai
    That will never change, come what may!
[19:45] Rich
    Exactly. They'll never admit their mistake.
SIGN    Objection!
[19:49] Sign
    Objection!
[19:50] PW
    I believed in you!
