[00:03] PW     During the channeling ritual to     summon her spirit, tragedy struck. [00:07] PW     The spirit that possessed Maya's body     committed murder.

[01:59] J     Are the prosecution and defense prepared? [02:03] PW     What's with this girl? [02:08] Fran     Mr. Phoenix Wright... [02:10] Fran     You must be a little shocked     because I am a woman, correct? [02:15] F     I am Franziska von Karma, the prodigy. SIGN    Prosecutor Prodigy — Franziska von Karma [02:18] PW     Right... [02:19] PW     Did she really just call herself that? [02:21] Fran     I gave up a promising career in America [02:23] Fran     and came to this country for one sole reason. [02:27] Fran     Revenge. [02:28] PW     Revenge? Is this about your father? [02:32] F     Papa? [02:33] J     Er, Prosecutor von Karma... [02:36] J     Using a whip in court is somewhat probl— [02:39] ---     No problemo. [02:40] F     That is not an issue. [02:42] F     Am I right? [02:43] J     R-Right, you are! [02:44] J     No problemo! [02:46] PW     Oh, please! It's a whip! [02:48] PW     Pretty big problemo! [02:50] J     It can't be helped. [02:51] J     After all, they do call the United States     "the land of the free." [02:54] PW     There's a limit to free— [02:56] F     If you get in my way,     my whip will speak for me. [02:59] PW     Please speak with your mouth     like a normal person. [03:02] F     Make no mistake. I will defeat you. [03:04] F     Prepare to go down, Mr. Phoenix Wright. [03:07] PW     She's more confident than her dad,     if that's even possible. [03:10] P     Mystic Maya, I will help in any way I can. [03:14] M     Pearls... [03:16] J     Prosecutor von Karma,      your opening statement, please. [03:21] F     This murder took place during     spirit medium Maya Fey's channeling ritual. [03:27] C     Spirit medium? [03:28] C     Those weirdos who summon spirits? [03:30] C     Wait, does that mean the murderer is a ghost? [03:32] F     Yes, this trial has no precedent. [03:35] F     It's a "spirit trial" that concerns     a murder committed by a ghost. [03:39] J     H-However, spirit channeling is     hardly the most real— [03:42] F     This happened in reality. Get used to it. [03:45] F     Possessed by a ghost or not, [03:47] F     the fact remains that      a spirit medium took a man's life. [03:49] F     And the defendant must pay for her crime! [03:51] J     U-Understood! [03:53] F     Then, I shall call my first witness. [03:56] F     I trust there are no objections,     Mr. Phoenix Wright? [03:58] PW     Could you please stop calling me     by my full name every time? SIGN    Witness Testimony [04:03] F     Witness, your name and occupation? [04:05] DG     Yes, ma'am! [04:06] DG     My name is Dick Gumshoe. [04:08] DG     I'm a detective— [04:10] F     Get to the point. [04:12] DG     What point? I was answering your quest— [04:16] F     Enough. Explain the details      of this murder already. [04:19] DG     Y-Yes! [04:20] PW     This is absurd. [04:22] [SONG] Sign     Channeling Chamber Side Room          Meditation Room Winding Way [04:22] DG     Then, if everyone would look at this map. [04:25] DG     The channeling chamber,     where Turner Grey was murdered, [04:30] DG     is windowless, and its only door was locked. [04:33] DG     At the time of the murder, only the victim     and defendant were in the room. [04:38] J     What were they doing in there? [04:41] DG     They were channeling a spirit, sir. [04:45] J     Order! [04:46] J     Continue your testimony, witness. [04:48] DG     Yes, sir! [04:49] DG     A few minutes after they started, [04:51] DG     gunshots were heard coming from the room. [04:53] DG     A few of the witnesses broke the door down     and rushed into the room. [04:58] DG     They found the victim already dead. [05:00] J     Gunshots? [05:02] J     Was the victim shot to death? [05:05] DG     First, the killer stabbed     the victim in the chest. [05:08] DG     The wound was severe but not enough     to cause instantaneous death. [05:11] DG     So the killer used a pistol to finish him off. [05:15] J     And the pistol... [05:17] DG     It belonged to the victim. [05:18] DG     He'd procured it on the black market     for self-defense. [05:21] PW     Then it actually was real... [05:25] J     And the murderer snatched the pistol     and shot the victim with it? [05:29] DG     That's right. [05:30] DG     Due to the stab wound,     the victim was powerless to resist. [05:34] DG     The victim was shot once in the forehead,     from point-blank range. [05:38] DG     Gunpowder burn was detected     on the victim's temple. [05:42] PW     Gunpowder burn? [05:45] DG     When something is shot with     the muzzle placed directly on it, [05:48] DG     the heat from the gunpowder explosion     leaves a burn around the bullet hole. [05:52] J     And that burn acts as proof     of a point-blank shot, yes? [05:56] DG     Also, we found the defendant's fingerprints     on both murder weapons. [06:03] P     Nick... [06:05] PW     This is bad. [06:06] PW     I don't see any flaws in the testimony. [06:08] F     Allow me to make a suggestion to the defense. [06:12] F     Plead that it was justifiable self-defense. [06:14] F     How does that sound? [06:17] PW     Justifiable self-defense? [06:18] J     Good point. [06:19] J     The victim had a pistol, so if you     plead justifiable self-defense, [06:24] J     that would reduce the sentence. [06:26] PW     Pleading self-defense is basically     confessing to murder. [06:31] PW     If we did that, Maya would     forever be labeled a murderer. [06:36] PW     I can't let that happen! [06:39] PW     Thanks for the suggestion, but no thanks! [06:42] PW     The defense will accept nothing     short of complete acquittal! [06:47] M     Nick! [06:49] F     As of this moment, your fate is sealed. [06:53] F     Detective! [06:54] DG     M-Ma'am! [06:55] F     Present the final part of     your testimony, the final strike. [06:58] F     The other piece of evidence that     fully incriminates Maya Fey. [07:02] PW     What? [07:03] PW     The other piece of evidence? [07:05] DG     Take a look at the costume the defendant     was wearing during the ritual. [07:10] PW     That's Maya's robe. [07:12] DG     As you see, it's covered in blood that was     splattered at the time of the murder. [07:17] DG     In other words, the defendant, [07:20] DG     who was wearing this, likely carried out     an act of one-sided assault. [07:25] J     What do you say, defense? [07:27] PW     Fingerprints on both murder weapons,     and blood splatters on her clothes... [07:31] PW     Could this situation get any worse? [07:33] PW     There must be some clue that lets me     turn this desperate situation about! [07:38] F     Staring a hole through the evidence     will not help you, Mr. Phoenix Wright. [07:43] PW     What is this? [07:45] PW     Please take a look at the costume's sleeve. [07:47] J     The sleeve? [07:48] PW     There is a tiny hole here. [07:50] J     T-True. [07:51] PW     This is a bullet hole, caused by a gunshot. [07:55] DG     Wh-What? [07:57] J     This certainly is a bullet hole. [07:59] J     This means the defendant was     shot at during the murder. [08:05] PW     Yes, I found it! [08:06] PW     A literal hole that the prosecution     overlooked in its case! [08:11] F     Why are you smiling, Mr. Phoenix Wright? [08:15] F     Surely you cannot have thought     I would overlook such a big hole? [08:19] PW     Wh-What? [08:21] DG     I certainly did. [08:23] F     The only thing that bullet hole proves [08:26] F     is that the victim shot at the     defendant during the murder. [08:30] PW     That's right. [08:32] PW     That means the testimony about     the act being one-sided is mistaken! [08:36] F     You are the one who's mistaken. [08:39] F     Whether it was a one-sided act of murder [08:42] F     only matters with a plea of     justifiable self-defense. [08:46] F     But earlier, you turned that down     to seek a complete acquittal. [08:54] F     You made the wrong choice,      Mr. Phoenix Wright. [08:57] F     The moment you pled not guilty, this bullet     hole lost all evidentiary relevance! [09:03] P     Nick! [09:04] P     Are you okay? [09:05] PW     It was a trap? [09:07] F     Those of von Karma blood have     but one fate. That is perfection. [09:10] F     And that is how I prosecute,     Mr. Phoenix Wright. [09:15] F     Now, Scruffy! [09:16] F     Tell the court what transpired that day, [09:18] F     adding the newly acquired information. [09:20] DG     I'll give it a shot, ma'am! SIGN    Testimony [09:23] DG     During the channeling, the defendant     stabbed the victim in the chest. [09:27] DG     Of course, the victim used the last     of his strength to fight back. [09:30] DG     While the two were fighting,     the victim took out his gun. [09:35] DG     He then shot from close range, but he missed. [09:38] DG     The defendant took that chance     to grab the pistol and end it. [09:43] J     That scenario does make sense. [09:45] F     But of course. [09:47] P     That can't be true. They're just     saying whatever they want. [09:50] PW     Yeah. [09:50] PW     There must be something... Something! [09:55] J     It seems the defendant's role in the murder     has been proven without doubt. [09:59] J     Then— SIGN    Hold it! [10:00] PW     Hold it! [10:01] PW     Take another look at this bullet hole. [10:04] PW     The two were fighting,     and the victim fired from close range. [10:08] PW     Is that correct? [10:09] DG     That would be the natural assumption. [10:11] PW     But in that case, we're missing something. [10:14] J     Missing something? [10:16] PW     Gunpowder burn. [10:18] PW     While testifying about the victim's     forehead wound earlier, [10:22] PW     you said this. [10:23] PW     That a shot fired from point-blank     range leaves a burn. [10:27] PW     So why isn't there a trace of     any burn on this costume? [10:31] PW     Your testimony is contradictory! [10:37] J     Order! Order! [10:39] P     Hooray! [10:40] P     Ah, this must be a miracle of love. [10:44] F     You are a smart man, Mr. Phoenix Wright. [10:46] F     Now I know why Papa had a tough time. [10:49] F     You amuse me. [10:50] F     Very well. [10:51] F     I shall call my next witness. [10:58] PW     Next witness? SIGN    June 21, 11:43 AM Kurain Village — Fey Manor [11:09] IM     Is this really, like, the time to be chilling? [11:14] MF     Everything is proceeding smoothly. [11:16] MF     Your concern is unnecessary. [11:22] IM     Well, excuse me! [11:27] MF     Pearl... [11:30] F     Witness, your name and occupation,     if you please. [11:33] LH     Hey, Wright! [11:34] LH     Long time no see! [11:35] PW     Lotta? Why are you here? [11:37] LH     Sorry, fella. [11:38] LH     With such a big scoop in front of me,      I just couldn't control myself. [11:42] LH     Yeowza! [11:43] F     Name and occupation. [11:45] LH     Wh-What in tarnation? [11:46] LH     Hey, judge! This here is violence     against my fair self! [11:49] J     That's fine. [11:50] LH     That ain't fine! [11:52] LH     That's a whip! And she's whoopin' me with it! [11:55] F     Just hurry up and testify about the murder. [11:58] F     I haven't even gotten to say     my name and job yet... [12:03] LH     I'm Lotta Hart, a photographer, SIGN    Witness Photographer Lotta Hart [12:05] LH     and I'm here to testify. [12:06] PW     These two are a dangerous combination. [12:09] LH     At the start of the ritual, SIGN    Testimony [12:11] LH     only the doc and Maya     went into the channelin' chamber. [12:15] LH     We were waitin' in the main hall and then... [12:17] LH     Bang! [12:19] LH     We hear this gunshot. [12:20] LH     Wright and I broke the door down     and entered the room. SIGN    Testimony [12:23] LH     Inside was the dead doc.     And Maya, waving a pistol around. [12:28] LH     And the next moment,     I instinctively took a photo! [12:33] LH     I'm a professional scoop     photographer, after all. [12:35] F     Allow me to present that photo to the court. [12:39] PW     The moment of truth...     What will that photo show? [12:43] J     This isn't the defendant!     It's a completely different person! [12:47] F     Of course. [12:48] F     In the Kurain School of Channeling, [12:50] F     a spirit medium changes her appearance     into the one she summons. [12:54] J     Th-That's ridiculous! [12:57] F     Isn't that right, defense? [12:58] PW     Y-Yes, that's right. [13:03] PW     I know how Maya's spirit channeling works. [13:05] PW     I can't lie about it! [13:07] J     I find it hard to believe. [13:09] J     But as long as the defense accepts it,     we must consider it fact. [13:13] F     Exactly. [13:15] PW     Prosecutor von Karma...     She even looked into this? [13:18] F     I told you. I am perfection. [13:20] J     I'm not sure about the face, [13:23] J     but this costume is clearly the one     the defendant was wearing. [13:28] F     During the ritual, [13:29] F     the victim and defendant alone entered     the crime scene, the channeling chamber. [13:33] F     Thus, the woman pictured is the defendant     in the midst of a spirit channeling. [13:38] F     In other words, this proves the     defendant committed the murder! [13:43] J     Very well. [13:44] J     Then, your cross-examination, defense. [13:47] PW     Yes, Your Honor! SIGN    Cross-Examination [13:47] F     Fool. [13:49] PW     Lotta... [13:50] PW     Are you absolutely certain     only two people were in the room? [13:54] LH     Huh? [13:54] PW     Maybe someone was hiding in there? [13:58] LH     Don't look down on a journalist. [14:00] LH     There wasn't anyone behind     the door or the foldin' screen! [14:03] PW     D-Did you check under the flooring? [14:06] F     Defense, it seems you were there all along. [14:10] F     Then, answer this! [14:11] F     Were there really only two people inside? [14:13] PW     Yes. [14:14] PW     I only saw two. [14:16] J     H-Hey, now... [14:18] J     Why are you testifying against the defendant? [14:20] F     Go spend the rest of your life     under the flooring, [14:22] F     Mr. Phoenix Wright! [14:25] P     Nick! [14:27] P     Even I think that was a bad idea. [14:28] LH     Same. That was clearly an awful idea. [14:32] J     So, what do you say, defense? [14:34] J     Is there anything else? [14:37] F     You admit it, then? [14:38] F     That this woman is the murderer [14:40] F     and none other than the defendant, Maya Fey? [14:44] PW     Yes, [14:45] PW     I know very well that Maya's appearance     changes during channeling. [14:50] PW     But I get the feeling     I'm overlooking something. [14:52] PW     Something very important! [14:54] PW     Dig through your memories once more! [14:59] PW     Yeah, that's it! [15:01] J     That's enough! [15:02] F     Looks like a complete acquittal was out     of the question, Mr. Phoenix Wright. SIGN    Objection! [15:06] PW     Objection! [15:08] PW     Prosecutor von Karma, [15:09] PW     it looks like your case     wasn't so perfect, either! [15:12] F     What? [15:13] PW     This photograph contains     a fatal contradiction. [15:17] J     Contradiction? [15:19] F     What are you saying? [15:21] PW     Take a good look at this woman. [15:23] PW     It's really strange. [15:24] PW     Something that should be there     is nowhere in sight! [15:27] F     That should be there? [15:29] PW     This ornament was used     in the ritual that day. [15:32] LH     R-Right... [15:33] LH     A "medium headdress," a sacred ornament     that's always used in channelin' rituals. [15:38] PW     When she entered the channeling chamber, [15:40] PW     the defendant was,     without doubt, wearing this. [15:42] LH     Yeah, yeah! I saw her wearing it, too! [15:44] PW     But in this picture, it's missing. [15:47] PW     This contradiction points to     only one conclusion. [15:51] PW     The defendant is not      the woman in this picture! [15:54] F     Wait a second. [15:55] F     I-It could have easily fallen off while     the defendant and victim fought. [16:00] P     That's impossible. [16:01] PW     Pearl? [16:03] P     The medium headdress     fits tightly in your hair. [16:05] P     It would never fall off that easily! [16:09] M     Pearls... [16:10] PW     And if this isn't the defendant, that means     the real murderer is someone else! [16:18] J     Order! Order! Order! SIGN    Objection! [16:20] F     Objection! [16:22] F     The defense's argument is a complete mess. [16:24] PW     What part of it? [16:25] F     All of it. [16:27] F     Listen... The door to the     crime scene was locked. [16:30] F     It was a closed room. [16:32] F     Am I right? [16:32] PW     R-Right. [16:34] F     Then how did your "real murderer" get in? [16:38] F     One more thing. [16:39] F     The witness has said that the victim and     murderer were alone at the crime scene. [16:43] F     Correct? [16:44] LH     C-Correct... [16:46] F     If this isn't the defendant, [16:48] F     then where did she vanish to? [16:50] LH     Don't ask me! [16:52] F     As you can see,     the defense's argument is full of holes! [16:57] J     From the start of the ritual to     the moment of the murder, [17:00] J     no one entered or left the crime scene. [17:03] J     As long as that fact doesn't change, [17:06] J     the defense's argument holds no water! [17:08] F     That's enough of your futile resistance. [17:10] F     This trial is over. [17:13] J     If the defense has no objection, [17:15] J     it seems we have reached our conclusion. [17:17] F     That's it. That's exactly     the look I wanted to see, [17:20] F     Mr. Phoenix Wright. [17:22] M     Nick... [17:23] PW     Damn it. [17:24] PW     And here I thought I finally had     a lead to turn things about! [17:27] PM     Wright, [17:29] PM     an attorney can't make that kind of face. [17:31] PW     Th-This voice... [17:33] PW     Mia! [17:35] Mia     An attorney ought to smile     in desperate situations! [17:39] M     S-Sis! [17:40] Mia     Looks like Pearl summoned me,     but her clothes are too small in the chest. [17:45] J     D-Defense! [17:47] J     Who is that woman? [17:48] J     She was a little girl until just now— [17:51] Mia     Your Honor. [17:52] J     Y-Yes? [17:53] Mia     It's just your imagination. [17:54] J     Is that so— [17:56] J     Ow! [17:58] F     Your cheap tricks will not work! [18:00] F     The defense is cornered,     and that hasn't changed one bit! [18:05] Mia     Okay, let's do this. [18:07] PW     B-But how? [18:10] Mia     Turn your thinking about. [18:12] PW     Turn it about? [18:13] Mia     Instead of thinking about how someone     entered or left that closed room, [18:18] Mia     look for proof that      someone did enter or leave. [18:22] PW     Proof that someone did enter or leave... [18:25] Mia     That's right. You already hold     the key to unlocking this mystery. [18:33] PW     Lotta, do you recognize this key? [18:36] LH     That's the key to the     channelin' chamber, right? [18:39] LH     Maya had it in her sleeve     at the ritual's start. [18:42] F     A key in the sleeve of the costume? [18:44] LH     Yeah, that's why we had     to break down the door. [18:48] LH     That key's one of a kind, after all. [18:52] J     One of a kind, you say? [18:54] F     Wait, Mr. Phoenix Wright. [18:56] F     Then why is that key currently     in your possession? [19:00] J     G-Good question. [19:01] PW     After the murder, this key was found     in the courtyard incinerator. [19:06] F     Incinerator? Why was it there? [19:09] PW     I don't know. [19:11] PW     But— [19:12] LH     Yeah, that's hella weird! [19:13] LH     When we barged into the scene,     that granny caught Maya immediately! [19:18] J     Oh, a granny did? [19:20] Mia     In other words, after the murder, [19:22] Mia     the defendant couldn't have dumped     the key in the incinerator. [19:25] F     S-Say what? [19:27] PW     That leaves us with but one conclusion. [19:30] PW     There's a chance the defendant left the     channeling chamber before the murder. [19:36] PW     If not, I wouldn't be     holding this key right now! [19:41] F     No! [19:44] J     Order! Order! [19:46] J     It seems we have come to an impasse. [19:50] J     This picture has clearly captured     the face of the murderer. [19:53] J     However, is this person the defendant or not?
