    Maya's mother, Misty Fey, was murdered.
[00:04] PW
    The root cause was the position
    of Kurain School Master.
[00:08] PW
    It was a sad tale of resentment
    between the main and branch families.
[00:12] PW
    But there is one mystery yet to be solved.
[00:14] PW
    Who really killed Misty Fey?
[00:18] PW
    The truth will be revealed soon,
    and it will rip everything to shreds!

[01:55] God
    Now, witness, will you state
    your name and occupation?
[02:01] Maya
    Maya Fey.
[02:03] Maya
    I'm the assistant manager at
    Wright & Co. Law Offices.
[02:06] God
    On the night in question,
    you witnessed the crucial moment
[02:10] God
    of Misty Fey being murdered
    in front of your eyes.
[02:14] PW
    When it happened, there was
    one more person there with you two.
[02:20] PW
    Yes, the true killer.
[02:23] Maya
    No! He was...
[02:25] PW
    "He"? Did you see that person?
[02:30] Maya
    I didn't. I mean, it was really dark.
[02:33] God
    It was impossible to tell if anyone was there
    with just moonlight to go by.
[02:38] Maya
    Yeah! I couldn't see a thing!
[02:40] PW
    That's not going to fly.
[02:42] PW
    Just now, you said, "No! He was..."
[02:46] PW
    That suggests you recognized him.
[02:49] PW
    And now you're trying to cover for him.
[02:54] J
    C-Cover? What do you mean, defense?
[02:58] PW
    It was pitch dark back then.
[03:00] PW
    She couldn't have seen the killer clearly.
[03:02] PW
    But she still did, which means...
[03:05] PW
    You can't see a person
    hiding in the shadows of the night.
[03:08] PW
    But there are some things
    you can only see in the dark!
[03:12] God
    You talk a good game, Trite.
[03:15] God
    Let's see you make it clear
    who the killer in the dark was!
[03:19] PW
    Please turn off all the lights
    in this courtroom!
[03:24] J
    Wh-What is this?
[03:30] God
    Now you've done it, Trite.
[03:33] PW
    Maya, you saw these three lights
    in the dark, didn't you?
[03:41] Maya
    No!
[03:43] PW
    I've been thinking something about
    the crime scene didn't add up.

    A cover-up is meaningless when you
    leave something like this untouched.
[03:56] J
    Then why?
[03:57] PW
    Remember what happened when
    this was presented as evidence.
[04:00] God
    Nonsense.
[04:01] God
    Are you saying there's something
    written on the lantern?
[04:05] PW
    And we went through this once before.
[04:07] PW
    During the poisoning case at Très Bien.
[04:11] PW
    Prosecutor Godot,
[04:13] PW
    there are certain colors you can't see.
[04:15] PW
    You can't see red
    on a white background, can you?
[04:19] PW
    That's why you cleared out
    so much snow around the lantern.
[04:24] God
    Why am I the only one?
[04:27] God
    Why can't I see it?
[04:30] PW
    The defense formally accuses you
    of killing Misty Fey!
[04:39] God
    Then let me hear it, Trite.
[04:42] God
    Why would I have to kill Misty Fey?
[04:46] PW
    You didn't just kill Misty Fey.
[04:49] PW
    You saved Maya Fey's life.
[04:55] God
    I hate to break it to you,
    but I'm not as heroic as I may look.
[05:01] God
    Certainly not enough to
    protect a total stranger!
[05:05] PW
    Maya is a lot more than
    just a stranger to you.
[05:08] God
    What?
[05:09] PW
    After all,
[05:10] PW
    she's the little sister
    of the love of your life.
[05:17] God
    Mia... Fey.
[05:20] PW
    Exactly,
[05:22] PW
    Diego Armando.
[05:27] J
    Diego Armando?
[05:29] J
    You're him?!
[05:31] God
    The last time someone called me by
    that name was over six years ago.
SIGN    Murder at the Courthouse?!
SIGN    Was his coffee poisoned... in broad daylight?
SIGN    Diego Armando
[05:36] PW
    All of this is related to a single case.
[05:39] PW
    A case in which the defendant killed himself.
[05:42] PW
    You stood beside Mia as she fought that case.
[05:46] PW
    In the end, she couldn't uncover
    Dahlia Hawthorne's crimes.
[05:50] God
    After that,
[05:53] God
    we thoroughly investigated
    that fake kidnapping incident.
[06:07] God
    The way she put her faith in her clients...
     That pure, sweet heart of hers...
[06:15] God
    It captivated me.
[06:18] God
    Then one fateful day, I told
    Dahlia Hawthorne to meet me
[06:22] God
    at the courthouse's cafeteria.
[06:27] God
    And then, I entered a deep, deep sleep.
[06:34] God
    That woman's poison did a real number
    on my central nervous system.
[06:37] God
    I lost my sight,
    and all of my hair turned white.
[06:41] God
    Five years later,
[06:43] God
    I miraculously regained consciousness
[06:46] God
    and found the worst possible news
    waiting for me.
[06:50] God
    The woman I loved had been murdered,
[06:55] God
    and the woman I loathed
    had been sentenced to death.
[07:01] God
    For a sleepyhead like me,
    there were only two reasons left to live.
[07:06] God
    And they were why I became a prosecutor.
[07:08] God
    The first was you, Trite.
[07:11] PW
    Me?
[07:12] God
    If I were in your shoes,
    I would never have let her die!
[07:15] God
    She died because you were an immature child!
[07:20] God
    I wanted to see for myself
    what kind of a man you really were.
[07:23] God
    And my other reason for living?
[07:26] God
    Maya Fey.
[07:28] God
    She was the only way I could make up
    for the sin of not saving Mia.
[07:33] God
    One year ago, Morgan Fey was arrested
    after the Kurain Village incident.
[07:38] God
    But it was obvious
    she'd still be plotting something.
[07:41] God
    When I eavesdropped on
    their conversation during the visit,
[07:46] God
    I learned of the existence of a written plan.
[07:49] God
    I got to the letter before Pearl
    and found its terrifying details.
[07:52] God
    I could've destroyed it right then and there,
[07:55] God
    but I decided to play along with their plan...
[07:58] God
    In order to outwit and
    get rid of them for good.
[08:03] God
    To do that, I needed help.
[08:06] God
    Help from Iris, a nun at Hazakura Temple,
    where the plan would be carried out,
[08:09] God
    and Misty Fey.
[08:13] God
    The police had been keeping an eye on
    her movements since the DL-6 Incident.
[08:19] God
    That's how I was able to contact her.
[08:22] God
    Because of my position as a prosecutor.
[08:25] God
    Then came the day.
[08:27] God
    I rushed to Hazakura Temple
    after Iris called me.
SIGN    Hazakura Temple
[08:32] God
    There was just one way
    to stop their evil plan.
[08:35] God
    We had to make sure Pearl Fey
    didn't channel Dahlia Hawthorne.
[08:38] PW
    Is that why Elise invited Pearls
    to her room that night?
[08:43] God
    But she never showed up.
[08:46] PW
    Because she went to the Inner Temple.
[08:48] God
    That's why Misty Fey had to channel
    Dahlia Hawthorne into her own body.
[08:56] PW
    If she channeled the spirit first,
[08:58] PW
    then Pearls wouldn't be able to do it.
[09:01] God
    I hid myself at the Inner Temple...
[09:03] God
    To stop Dahlia Hawthorne
    if it came down to it.
[09:09] God
    Anyway...
[09:10] God
    That's all I'm going to admit to.
[09:14] God
    There's just one question remaining.
[09:17] God
    "Who killed Misty Fey
    at the Inner Temple?"
[09:23] God
    Well, Trite...
[09:25] God
    If you're the real deal,
    then finish this thing once and for all.
[09:30] God
    Show that you can finish this on your own!
[09:31] Maya
    No, Nick! Please don't!
[09:36] PW
    Maya...
[09:38] Maya
    I heard the whole thing from Sis.
[09:40] Maya
    He risked his life for her and me, you know?
[09:44] PW
    I know that!
[09:46] PW
    But even so, it doesn't
    absolve him of his crime!
[09:50] PW
    No matter what the cost,
    I will find the truth!
[09:56] PW
    The defense presents
    its final piece of evidence: this!
[10:00] J
    Isn't that...
[10:02] J
    the dagger Dahlia Hawthorne was holding?
[10:05] PW
    Yes. Its tip is covered in blood.
[10:07] J
    But I thought we established that
    this sword was the murder weapon.
[10:13] PW
    Then why is there
    a bloodstain on this dagger?
[10:17] PW
    There's only one possible answer
    to that question.
[10:20] PW
    After she was stabbed, Dahlia Hawthorne
    reflexively attacked the killer!
[10:25] J
    What?!
[10:27] PW
    In other words, the blood on this dagger
    belongs to the killer!
SIGN    Objection!
[10:32] Maya
    Objection!
[10:33] Maya
    But he couldn't change his clothes
    or get treatment that night!
[10:36] Maya
    The bridge burned down!
[10:39] PW
    Maya...
[10:41] God
    I was trapped at the Inner Temple that night,
     meaning I couldn't hide my wound.
[10:46] God
    Now what will you do, defense?
[10:53] J
    What do you have to say, defense?
[10:55] J
    You've accused Prosecutor Godot
     of being the killer.
[10:59] J
    If you cannot prove it,
    I'll deliver my verdict right away!
[11:03] PW
    The question isn't whether
    I can prove it or not.
[11:09] PW
    I have to prove it!
    That's the only choice I have!
[11:12] PW
    I was taught that it's one of
    the rules of being a lawyer!
SIGN    Objection!
[11:17] PW
    Objection!
[11:19] PW
    I can prove it!
[11:20] PW
    I'll gravely sunder your
    magnificent vengeance, just as you want it!
[11:24] God
    Big words, little man!
[11:26] God
    You can't surpass her in court!
    Never in a million years!
[11:32] Maya
    This is for the best, huh, Nick?
[11:36] PW
    If we turn our thinking about, it should
    be clear why there is no visible wound.
[11:42] God
    Turn it about?
[11:44] PW
    Instead of questioning why
    there was no bloodstain on his clothing,
[11:48] PW
    we can show how exactly
    the killer hid the wound!
[11:52] God
    Mia?
[11:53] PW
    That's right. He's still
    hiding his wound as we speak.
[11:57] PW
    It's...
[12:00] PW
    Right beneath that mask!
[12:00] Mia
    Right beneath that mask!
[12:08] PW
    Prosecutor Godot, would you mind
    removing your mask?
[12:12] PW
    If you have a dagger wound under there,
[12:15] PW
    then this whole case is solved!
[12:32] God
    There's no need for that.
[12:35] God
    Just now, I saw her spirit in you.
[12:41] God
    I could never forgive you.
[12:44] God
    That's what I thought.
[12:46] Maya
    Mr. Prosecutor...
[12:47] God
    But I was wrong about you.
[12:51] God
    The truth is, the only person I could
    never find it in my heart to forgive
[12:56] God
    was me.
[12:59] J
    You, yourself?
[13:01] God
    I was the one that failed to protect Mia.
[13:07] God
    I ran and hid behind a mask.
[13:09] God
    I threw away my true name.
[13:12] God
    I couldn't even deal with being
    a defense attorney, so I quit.
[13:15] PW
    But you saved Maya!
[13:20] God
    Yeah, that's what I thought.
    Up until just now, anyway.
[13:24] God
    You showed me the light. I wasn't really
    interested in saving anyone at all.
[13:30] God
    I think I was just trying to salvage
    what's left of my own broken soul.
[13:35] God
    I was trying to make up for
    the fact that I couldn't save Mia.
[13:40] God
    That night, when I saw her silhouette
    in the darkness of the garden,
[13:45] God
    a part of me must have known the truth.
[13:50] God
    The truth that it wasn't really
    Dahlia Hawthorne standing there.
[13:56] God
    Misty Fey may well have been
    keeping her under control.
[14:01] God
    But I still picked up the blade.
[14:11] God
    I'm not sure exactly what was
    going on in my mind at that point.
[14:16] God
    Was I really motivated by
    the pure desire to protect Maya Fey?
[14:20] God
    Or was it something else?
[14:22] God
    Was it a pointless desire for revenge
    against a woman who stole everything from me?
[14:28] God
    And now,
[14:31] God
    I don't know anything anymore.
[14:35] God
    I did learn something today, however.
[14:39] God
    I finally realized that
    I was the arrogant one.
[14:43] God
    You were the one who made me
    realize my folly.
[14:47] God
    You never ran away from Mia's death.
[14:53] God
    Instead, you picked up where she left off,
     as a true defender of the people.
[14:56] God
    In that one moment, I understood everything.
[15:02] God
    There's nothing left to say anymore.
[15:06] PW
    Prosecutor Godot...
[15:08] God
    If you don't mind,
    would you remember my name?
[15:11] God
    It's Diego Armando.
[15:17] Maya
    Mr. Armando! I believe in you!
[15:21] Maya
    I know you were trying to save me!
[15:24] Maya
    And I'm sure Sis and Mom
    believe in you, too!
[15:36] God
    Thanks a lot.
[15:37] PW
    Your wound! It's bleeding!
[15:40] God
    Did you forget already?
    In my world, the color red doesn't exist.
[15:46] God
    These must be my tears.
[15:51] God
    Ever since I woke up from my coma,
[15:55] God
    I think I've been waiting
    for this very moment.
[15:59] God
    You'd do well to remember this, missy.
[16:02] God
    The only time a lawyer can cry
    is when it's all over.
[16:11] J
    It really is all over this time, isn't it?
[16:15] J
    Defendant...
[16:16] J
    Before I hand down my verdict,
    is there anything you'd like to say?
[16:21] Iris
    Well, there is one thing
    I'd like to say to Mr. Wright.
[16:26] Iris
    I want to apologize to you.
[16:30] PW
    Apologize to me? For what?
[16:32] Iris
    For the case in which my sister
    tried to kill you six years ago.
[16:41] PW
    Actually, I can't believe it
    even now, six years later.
[16:46] PW
    I find it unthinkable
    that she'd do that to me.
[16:49] Iris
    It's not all that surprising.

[17:14] Iris
    Ever since she gave you the bottle that day,

    my sister was trying to get it back
    as soon as she possibly could.
[17:22] Iris
    You were a threat to her,
    and she wanted you gone at once.
[17:26] Iris
    I didn't want any more sins on her soul.
[17:31] Iris
    I begged her not to do it,
[17:32] Iris
    and she agreed to give me a chance.
[17:35] Iris
    I told her I would get
    the pendant back for her.
[17:40] Iris
    But I couldn't do it.
[17:43] Iris
    You were so happy about the present
    and cherished it with your life.

    Six months passed,
    and I couldn't get it back from you.
[17:52] Iris
    Finally, my sister couldn't wait any longer
[17:55] Iris
    and committed that awful crime.
[17:57] Iris
    She paid no notice to my feelings for you.
[18:02] Iris
    I couldn't do it.
[18:04] Iris
    I couldn't protect either you or my sister.
[18:09] Iris
    All I did was deceive and hurt you.
[18:13] PW
    Iris...
[18:18] PW
    Let me just say this to you.
