**[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.
***SIGN*** ayaM
**[03:46] PW**
Strangely, the killer left the most
conspicuous piece of evidence intact.
***SIGN*** ayaM
***SIGN*** ayaM

**[03:52] J**
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.
The two of you hardly knew each other.
**[16:55] PW**
What do you mean?
**[16:56] Iris**
You and my sister...
**[16:58] Iris**
You only met twice.
**[17:01] PW**
Twice?
***SIGN*** Murder at the Courthouse?!
***SIGN*** Was his coffee poisoned...
in broad daylight?
***SIGN*** Diego Armando
**[17:02] Iris**
The first time was on that fateful day.
**[17:05] Iris**
The next time was on the day of
the murder at the university.
**[17:09] Iris**
Those were the only two times
you and my sister met.
**[17:13] PW**
No way...
**[17:14] Iris**
Ever since she gave you the bottle that day,
**[17:18] Iris**
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.
**[17:48] Iris**
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.
**[18:21] PW**
The kindness you showed me was real.
**[18:23] PW**
Even after Dahlia Hawthorne was found guilty,
**[18:26] PW**
I still believed in you.
**[18:30] Iris**
I hope you can forgive me one day...
**[18:33] Iris**
Feenie.
**[18:35] PW**
You really are the person
I always thought you were.
**[18:42] Iris**
Thank you.
**[18:47] God**
How many cups of darkness have I drank
over the years? Even I don't know.
**[18:53] God**
But this one here is the greatest cup
I think I've ever had.
**[19:00] God**
Don't you think so, Phoenix Wright?
**[19:07] PW**
Yeah. I think you're right.
**[19:15] J**
Very well! On the charge of murder,
I hereby find the defendant...
***SIGN*** Not Guilty
**[19:21] J**
Not guilty!

Congrats, Maya!
**[19:29] Maya**
Thanks, Nick!
**[19:31] Maya**
I guess it's just like Sis said.
**[19:34] Maya**
That night, she wrote back in my memo,
**[19:36] Maya**
"Don't worry. Wright will
save everyone in the end."
**[19:41] PW**
Mia...
**[19:44] PW**
Edgeworth?
**[19:45] ME**
Well, you know...
**[19:48] ME**
Excellent work, Wright.
**[19:51] PW**
I couldn't have done it
without you, Edgeworth.
**[19:56] LB**
Hey, hey! Don't go forgetting me!
**[19:59] Gum**
Same here! We were your right-hand...
**[20:04] Fran**
Be thankful, Phoenix Wright.
**[20:06] Fran**
I brought her from the Inner Temple.
**[20:10] Maya**
Pearly!
**[20:10] PW**
Pearls?
**[20:12] Pearl**
Mystic Maya!
**[20:15] Maya**
Pearly, you're all covered in curry gravy.
**[20:18] Pearl**
Um, I took the Master's hanging scroll and...
**[20:22] Maya**
You cleaned it up?
**[20:25] Maya**
Thank you!
**[20:26] Maya**
Don't run away and leave me anymore!
**[20:29] Pearl**
Mystic Maya!
**[20:32] PW**
*Looking at Maya and the others, it hit me...*
**[20:35] PW**
* This case happened because everyone was*
* trying to protect what was dear to them.*
**[20:41] PW**
*Did I protect anyone with my defense?*
**[20:46] Mia**
Wright...
**[20:48] Mia**
You saved everyone.
**[20:51] Mia**
You've accomplished something
I wasn't able to.
**[20:55] Mia**
Thank you.
**[20:57] Mia**
Let's meet again someday, Wright.
**[21:03] PW**
* How hard can you fight for*
* someone important to you?*
**[21:07] PW**
*That's the true measure of us as people.*
**[21:10] PW**
* We defense attorneys are warriors who are*
* constantly challenged by that question.*
**[21:14] PW**
* The bonds forged in battle always return,*

**[21:21] PW**
*My wonderful friends are witness to that!*
**[23:08] ME**
You still have a ways to go, Wright.
**[23:11] Maya**
All right! Go get him, Nick!
**[23:14] PW**
Yeah.
**[23:15] PW**
Objection!
