[00:02] PW     Acro, the wheelchair-bound acrobat. [00:05] PW     After an accident six months ago,     his brother, Bat, [00:07] PW     has yet to regain consciousness. [00:09] PW     What was the killer's true motive? [00:11] PW     The courtroom illusion     that will reveal everything [00:13] PW     begins now! SIGN    Ace SIGN    Attorney SIGN    Ace Attorney SIGN    Objection! [01:45] F     Objection! [01:46] F     Your bluffing ends here, Mr. Phoenix Wright. [01:51] F     Just look at this witness. SIGN    Turnabout Big Top — Last Trial [01:52] F     He could not descend the stairs, [01:54] F     let alone leave the lodging house. [01:56] F     He could not have committed this murder. [01:58] J     Yes, indeed. [02:00] A     I'm no magician. [02:03] A     Will you say I had an accomplice? [02:06] PW     No. [02:07] PW     You committed this murder all by yourself— [02:11] F     Of all the foolish foolishness! [02:12] F     In that case, can you prove it? [02:16] F     Tell us precisely how the witness     performed this killing? [02:20] PW     Yes, of course. [02:23] A     Looks like you're serious     about this, Mr. Lawyer. [02:27] PW     Everyone here will now learn     exactly how you did it. [02:31] PW     But they won't be hearing it from me. [02:34] J     What? [02:39] PW     That night, the ringmaster     headed to the plaza [02:42] PW     after being summoned by a note. [02:44] PW     A large, wooden box waited for him there. [02:47] PW     What he wanted was the item inside the box. [02:52] PW     But the box was locked,     and he couldn't open it. [02:57] PW     With no choice, the ringmaster tried     to take the box itself with him. [03:01] PW     In order to lift the heavy box, [03:03] PW     he had to squat, like so. [03:05] PW     At that moment... [03:07] PW     A deadly weapon came     crashing down toward his head. SIGN    Hardtack [03:13] F     Huh? [03:14] J     Whoa! [03:15] F     Max Galactica? [03:18] PW     Exactly. [03:19] PW     What fell on the ringmaster's head was [03:21] PW     the defendant's prize, won at     the Magician's Grand Prix, [03:25] PW     a life-sized bust of himself! [03:30] PW     And this is where the miraculous     magic trick begins! [03:34] PW     Take a slow-motion look at     the moment of miracle! [03:44] M     Whoa! It's Max! [03:45] M     Maximillion Flightica! [03:53] PW     This is the whole truth behind what     happened at the plaza that night. [03:57] PW     And the only one who could've done this [04:00] PW     was the man in the room directly     above the crime scene, [04:03] PW     Acro! [04:07] J     What in the world? [04:12] F     Hold it a second, Mr. Phoenix Wright! [04:15] F     Are you seriously suggesting that happened? SIGN    Hardtack [04:18] F     How could he operate a wheelchair     while carrying a heavy bust? [04:22] PW     He had no need to. [04:25] PW     All Acro had to do was to     drop it from the window. [04:28] F     B-But... [04:30] F     How could he drop it so accurately     on the victim's head? [04:33] F     There is no way— [04:34] PW     That's where the wooden box came in. [04:37] PW     If he dropped the bust at the moment     the victim tried to lift the box, [04:41] PW     he couldn't have missed! [04:43] F     And how did he transport the box to the scene? [04:46] PW     Simple. [04:47] PW     He tied it to a rope and lowered it     from the window. [04:51] F     Then what about the bust? [04:52] F     He cannot climb a flight of stairs unassisted. [04:54] F     How did he take it to his room? [04:56] PW     It was probably... [04:59] F     A... A monkey? [05:00] PW     Yes. [05:01] PW     This is Money the Monkey,      and he lives in Acro's room. [05:04] PW     He loves shiny things, and he's in     the habit of taking them home. [05:09] PW     Maybe Acro devised this plan after [05:12] PW     seeing the bust Money happened to bring in. [05:16] PW     All of this proves that [05:17] PW     Acro could have committed this murder! [05:20] F     Ridiculous! [05:21] J     Order! [05:23] J     The defense's claims are truly extraordinary. [05:26] J     However, they do make sense. [05:28] F     Do not be fooled! [05:30] F     Have you forgotten the clown's testimony? [05:33] F     He saw the defendant fly away     from the crime scene. [05:36] PW     Everything was as you just saw. [05:38] PW     What Moe witnessed was... [05:40] M     Max's bust, with his cape stuck to it! [05:49] Moe     If you think this is all we've got,     you're living in de Nile. [05:52] M     De Nile! [05:54] Moe     Gorgeous! [06:00] Trilo     Gorgeous! [06:05] Moe     I can fly, I can fly, I can fly... [06:10] F     Curse you, Mr. Phoenix Wright... [06:12] F     How could you, of all people,     see through the magic trick? [06:16] PW     I wasn't the one who saw through it. [06:18] PW     I had help from an expert in the field. [06:21] Max     Recreate the magic trick? [06:23] Max     Are you kidding me? [06:24] PW     No. Please. [06:26] Max     There's no way they'd cooperate. [06:30] PW     Max, [06:31] PW     I believe everyone in Berry Big Circus     must get through this together. [06:36] Max     Everyone in the circus... [06:38] PW     Max took the clues found so far     and unraveled the magic. [06:43] PW     In other words, the trick behind this case. [06:45] PW     And with the circus people's help, [06:48] ---     We're back [06:48] PW     we recreated it in this courtroom. [06:51] F     Why? [06:52] F     Didn't you two testify against the defendant? [06:55] PW     Yes, they all initially suspected Max. SIGN    Berry Big Circus [07:00] Moe     Us? Help Max? [07:02] Trilo     Why would we? [07:05] PW     These are the documents from his salary     negotiation with the ringmaster. [07:10] PW     He asked for the raise to be     distributed evenly among everyone. [07:15] Moe     What? [07:16] PW     He must have thought a raise would     give you all some motivation. [07:21] PW     I believe it's proof that, in his own way,     he cares about this circus. [07:27] PW     The desire to learn the truth [07:29] PW     brought them all together! [07:31] Max     Gorgeous. [07:33] PW     What do you say, Acro? [07:35] A     That's Max for you. [07:37] A     That was a very amusing circus you put on. [07:40] A     But that's all it was. [07:43] F     You're too naïve, Mr. Phoenix Wright. [07:46] F     You have yet to prove     one very important thing. [07:49] A     Why would I want to take     the ringmaster's life? [07:54] PW     That's... [07:55] F     Exactly. The motive. [07:57] F     The victim was like a father to this witness. [08:00] F     He was greatly indebted to him. [08:02] F     Why would he ever kill him? [08:04] J     Do you have anything to say, defense? [08:11] F     Do you not know how to see things through,     Mr. Phoenix Wright? [08:15] PW     Do I really have to tell the court about it? [08:20] Moe     Bro, don't worry about it. [08:22] Moe     Show her. [08:24] Moe     Show her the truth behind this incident. [08:27] M     Nick... [08:33] PW     Acro, [08:34] PW     do you recognize this note? [08:36] PW     It was found in the ringmaster's room. [08:39] A     The ringmaster's? [08:40] PW     "To the murderer: [08:42] PW     You haven't forgotten about     six months ago, have you? [08:45] PW     I have conclusive evidence here with me. [08:48] PW     Come to the plaza in front of the     lodging house, tonight, at 10 PM." [08:51] F     Wh-What is this? [08:53] PW     Apparently, the morning of the murder, [08:55] PW     this was posted on the bulletin board     at the circus cafeteria. [08:57] PW     The victim went to the scene,     as specified by this note... [09:01] F     And was murdered? [09:02] [SONG] ---     To the murderer:          You haven't forgotten about six months ago, have you?          I have conclusive evidence here with me.          Come to the plaza in front of the lodging house,     tonight, at 10 PM. [09:02] PW     The incident six months ago     that the note mentions [09:05] PW     is the final key to unlocking this mystery. [09:12] ---     Order! [09:14] Reg     That was fun, Moe. [09:16] Reg     But what does he mean about     the incident from six months ago? [09:20] Moe     Regina, listen carefully to what he says. [09:22] Moe     It's very important. [09:24] Reg     O-Okay. [09:26] J     Defense, what happened at     the Berry Big Circus six months ago? [09:31] PW     Acro's little brother, Bat,     a.k.a. Sean Dingling, [09:35] PW     was attacked by the circus lion     in a horrifying incident. [09:39] J     B-By a lion? [09:41] PW     Bat survived, but he remains in a coma. [09:45] F     The prosecution is fully aware     of the incident. [09:48] F     An unfortunate accident, yes? [09:52] PW     That wasn't just an accident. [09:54] F     Wh-What? [09:56] PW     This is the scarf presented to Bat     by Regina the animal tamer. [10:01] PW     Apparently, he'd worn it around     his neck that day. [10:04] PW     He opened the lion's mouth and tried     to perform one of her tricks. [10:10] PW     That's when a terrible tragedy occurred. [10:15] F     That lion had been thoroughly trained, [10:17] F     and its attack on a person was unthinkable. [10:20] F     Then why did it... [10:22] PW     I hear the lion smiled     just before it bit down. [10:26] ---     Eh? [10:27] J     S-Smiled? Do lions smile? [10:31] F     I have never heard of it! [10:33] PW     Upon testing the scarf Bat wore that day, [10:36] PW     we found traces of something on it. [10:38] J     And that was? [10:40] PW     Pepper. [10:41] F     Pepper? [10:43] F     Don't tell me... [10:44] PW     The lion didn't smile. [10:47] PW     Isn't that right, Acro? [10:50] PW     Yes. At that moment, the lion simply sneezed, [10:54] PW     due to the pepper all over the scarf. [10:57] J     Pepper? [10:58] J     Like the pepper in the wooden box? [11:01] PW     Precisely. [11:01] PW     The "conclusive evidence" the note     mentioned was the pepper. [11:05] J     Oh, dear. [11:07] PW     These are the results of the tests     performed on the scarf. [11:09] J     The court accepts them as evidence. [11:11] F     "Sneezed due to the pepper"? [11:13] F     What kind of foolish joke is this,     Mr. Phoenix Wright?! [11:16] PW     Unfortunately, it's the truth. [11:19] PW     And once Acro learned this, [11:22] PW     he plotted revenge... [11:25] PW     Against the person who'd given     the scarf to his brother. [11:29] Reg     M-Me? [11:30] J     So the real target was... [11:34] PW     Yes. [11:34] PW     Not the ringmaster, but his daughter. [11:37] PW     Regina the animal tamer! [11:43] PW     When she brought your breakfast,     you slipped the note into her pocket. [11:47] PW     However, she had no idea what it meant, [11:51] PW     so she put it up on the cafeteria board. [11:52] [SONG] Sign     To the murderer:          You haven't forgotten about six months ago, have you?          I have conclusive evidence here with me.          Come to the plaza in front of the lodging house,     tonight, at 10 PM. [11:54] F     And Ringmaster Berry found it? [11:57] PW     He probably knew the truth of the incident. [12:00] PW     And so, in order to protect his daughter, [12:04] PW     he went to the scene himself. [12:06] Reg     P-Papa went in my place? [12:10] PW     Acro can't leave his wheelchair. [12:12] PW     That's why he didn't realize the person     below his window wasn't Regina. [12:17] PW     He proceeded as planned and killed them. [12:20] F     Wh-What in a foolish fool's name? [12:22] PW     Acro, you thought you were     taking revenge on Regina. [12:26] PW     But you ended up killing Ringmaster Berry,     the one to whom you owed your life! [12:30] J     What do you say, witness? [12:34] A     Do you have proof? [12:36] PW     Acro? [12:38] A     Do you have proof I dropped     the bust on him that night? [12:43] F     Yesterday, the police thoroughly     searched the Berry Big Circus. [12:47] F     But they did not find a bust of     Max Galactica in this witness's room. [12:52] PW     Wh-What? [12:54] J     In that case, where is the bust? [12:59] F     We listed everything we found at the circus! [13:03] F     But there was no bust anywhere! [13:06] PW     Anywhere? [13:07] A     Then, you don't have proof linking me     to your murder weapon? [13:13] A     I'm sorry, Mr. Lawyer, [13:15] A     but I can't be arrested. [13:18] Moe     Don't fight it anymore, Acro! [13:20] Moe     Tell the truth! [13:23] Moe     Acro... [13:25] J     Order! [13:27] J     I have to disallow the defense's claims     due to lack of evidence. [13:31] J     Prosecutor von Karma... [13:33] F     Then, the cross-examination of this     witness is hereby complete. [13:37] PW     Damn it. Is this it? SIGN    Objection! [13:39] M     Objection! [13:41] M     Don't give up, Nick! [13:43] M     Remember the message Gumshoe gave you! [13:46] PW     Detective Gumshoe? [13:49] DG     Also, I have a message for you. [13:51] DG     "The verdict will surely be decided     at the last second." [13:54] PW     The last second? [13:55] PW     That would be now! [13:57] M     Don't acrobats live their lives on the edge? [13:59] M     And that's how Acro has     lived his life up till now. [14:02] M     But you have crossed ropes     just as tight, Nick! [14:06] PW     Maya? [14:08] M     Now, let's walk across     the tightest rope we've crossed! [14:12] PW     Got it, Maya. [14:14] PW     Your Honor! [14:15] PW     The defense will show you exactly     where the murder weapon is! [14:19] J     Huh? [14:21] A     Impossible... There's no way. [14:23] F     The foolish ramblings of a foolish fool. [14:25] F     Then answer right this very instant! [14:26] F     Where is the bust?! [14:28] PW     "The verdict will be decided     at the last second." [14:31] PW     In other words, the bust's location will     become clear now, at this very moment. [14:35] PW     On the investigation's first day,     it was in Acro's room. [14:39] PW     But by the second day, it was gone. [14:41] PW     That's right. [14:42] PW     There was a thorough search yesterday. [14:44] PW     Acro was forced to hide it [14:47] PW     before the police searched his room! [14:50] PW     So that's how it is. [14:52] PW     I have a request, Acro. [14:54] A     What is it? [14:56] PW     Please lift the blanket on your wheelchair. [15:00] A     What is the meaning of this? [15:02] PW     Yesterday, the police couldn't     find the bust anywhere. [15:06] PW     That would imply it was taken from the circus. [15:09] F     Ridiculous! [15:10] F     All we did was search. [15:12] F     We removed nothing! [15:13] PW     You're mistaken. [15:14] PW     Something was taken from the circus. [15:18] PW     And that was you, Acro. [15:22] PW     Back then, you'd already hidden the bust     where it wouldn't be found. [15:27] F     I-Impossible! [15:30] PW     Meaning that you should still be hiding it. [15:33] PW     Right here, at this very moment! [15:36] PW     Beneath the blanket on your wheelchair! [15:51] A     Brilliantly done. [15:52] J     What? [15:54] F     How could this be? [15:55] M     No way. [15:57] A     No room for excuses when the murder weapon     is found on you in court, huh? [16:02] A     Your Honor, I am the one     who killed the ringmaster. [16:05] A     Everything is as Mr. Wright said. [16:09] A     Thinking back, [16:10] A     my fate was sealed the moment     that search was carried out. [16:15] A     You got me. [16:18] A     Prosecutor, had you already seen     through everything yesterday? [16:21] F     Huh? I... I... [16:23] DG     Yes, pal! [16:24] F     That Scruffy McTrenchcoat! [16:25] A     As Mr. Wright said, [16:27] A     I tried to exact revenge on Regina     for taking my brother from me. [16:32] A     One day, he sprinkled some pepper on her. [16:35] A     Her sneezing fit made everyone     burst into laughter. [16:38] A     It was a harmless prank. [16:41] A     He loved her. [16:44] A     And she didn't want anything bad to happen. [16:46] A     She just wanted to make     my brother sneeze, too. [16:50] A     I knew that. [16:51] A     But she didn't realize what she'd done... [16:57] Reg     Hey, if Bat also becomes a star, [17:00] Reg     will he smile down on us from in the sky? [17:05] A     I couldn't stand her innocent laughter,     no matter how hard I tried! [17:10] A     That's why I... [17:12] M     Acro... [17:14] A     I didn't want to be caught. [17:15] A     I thought I couldn't just up and leave. [17:19] A     But this is for the best. [17:22] PW     In a way, you were also a victim. [17:25] A     No. [17:26] A     I am [17:28] A     only a murderer. [17:31] J     Bailiff, apprehend this man and take him in. SIGN    Wait!

[17:49] Reg     Bat, Papa, and Leon all went     away because of me. [17:55] Reg     Not Acro! [17:56] Reg     It's all... It's all my fault. [17:58] Reg     If you must arrest someone, arrest me! [18:01] Reg     Please! [18:05] A     You're wrong. [18:06] A     I'm the one who committed murder. [18:09] Reg     Acro...

[18:21] Moe     Bat is still in a coma! [18:23] Moe     Acro wanted to be by his side     when he wakes up someday! [18:28] Moe     That's why he committed another grave sin.
