    My name is Phoenix Wright,
[00:03] PW
    attorney-at-law.
[00:04] PW
    The Kurain Village's sacred urn was stolen
    by the phantom thief, Mask DeMasque.
[00:09] PW
    When Ron DeLite said he was him
    and surrendered, I took up his case
[00:16] PW
    and began investigating.
[00:18] PW
    However, that didn't sit right with Maya.
[00:22] PW
    And thus, I ended up going
    into the trial alone.

[02:31] J
    Court is now in session for
    the trial of Ron DeLite.
[02:37] PW
    The defense is ready, Your Honor.
[02:42] J
    What about the prosecution? Are you ready?
[02:45] God
    What a stupid question.
[02:48] God
    Let me ask you, then, Your Honor.
     Are you ready?
[02:54] God
    Are you ready to pass judgment?
[02:55] J
    What? N-No, I'm not.
[02:58] J
    I will pass judgment after
    I hear arguments from both sides.
[03:02] God
    Well, if you're not ready yourself,
    you shouldn't expect others to be.
[03:06] God
    That's a rule to live by.
[03:09] J
    Uh, who are you?
[03:13] God
    I am Godot, legendary prosecutor.
    I've never lost a case.
[03:16] J
    Oh? What kind of cases
    have you dealt with so far?
[03:20] God
    I've never prosecuted a case before.
[03:24] PW
    N-Never? But you said
    you've never lost before.
[03:28] God
    Every prosecutor starts off undefeated.
[03:31] J
    Quite arrogant for a beginner, aren't you?
[03:34] God
    Every mighty redwood begins
    its life as a mere sapling.
[03:38] PW
    Why does every prosecutor
    have to be a headcase?
[03:42] God
    So we finally meet, Mr. Trite.
[03:45] PW
    Huh? My name's Wright...
[03:48] God
    I must do battle with you.
[03:50] God
    That is why I've returned
    from the depths of hell.
[03:55] PW
    What is he saying? Does he know me?
[04:00] J
    Well, let's hear from the accused.
[04:07] J
    H-Hey! We're in the middle of a trial here!
[04:11] God
    Blacker than a moonless night,
[04:14] God
    hotter and more bitter than
    Hell itself... That is coffee.
[04:17] God
    I'm sure you can grant me at least this much.
[04:21] J
    I understand.
[04:23] PW
    You do?!
[04:24] Ama
    Um, I'm Ron DeLite.
[04:28] Ama
    M-Mask DeMasque, phantom thief? That's me.
[04:32] God
    Kid, you say you're Mask DeMasque,
    and that you stole the Kurain urn.
[04:37] God
    Is that right?
[04:38] Ama
    Yes, I did it.
[04:40] Ama
    So pronounce me guilty right now, please!
SIGN    Hold it!
[04:44] Sign
    Hold it!
[04:45] PW
    Wait... Wait a second, please!
[04:49] J
    What is it, defense?
[04:51] PW
    Since Ron's hidden identity is up in the air,
[04:54] PW
    all I can do is try to prove that
    Mask DeMasque didn't steal the urn.
[04:59] PW
    Are we sure that this crime was
    committed by Mask DeMasque?
[05:04] J
    You mean to say it wasn't Mask DeMasque
    who stole the Kurain urn?
[05:10] PW
    I believe we should clear that up first.
[05:13] God
    Interesting.
[05:14] God
    Give me your best shot.
[05:16] God
    I hope it's as eye-opening as this coffee.
[05:19] PW
    Have a look at this.
[05:21] PW
    It's security-camera footage from
    the Lordly Tailor's basement warehouse.
[05:25] PW
    I have here a piece of reference
    for Mask DeMasque.
[05:29] Ama
    A postcard of me?
[05:31] PW
    Take a close look.
[05:33] PW
    The thief that broke into Lordly Tailor
    is missing the broach on his chest!
[05:39] J
    What?
[05:40] PW
    In other words, it's likely
    that this was a fake.
[05:49] God
    The broach you're talking about...
[05:51] God
    Do you mean this?
[05:53] PW
    Th-That's...
[05:55] God
    I found it hidden in the shadow
    of the big gold statue.
[05:59] PW
    Y-You found it on the crime scene?
[06:03] J
    It seems that was the real
    Mask DeMasque after all.
[06:08] God
    You're quick on the uptake, gramps.
[06:10] God
    I like that.
[06:11] PW
    No! If that was the real Mask DeMasque,
    I don't have a case!
[06:16] God
    Giving up already? That was quick.
[06:20] God
    My coffee hasn't even cooled a bit yet.
[06:23] Maya
    Hold it!
[06:25] PW
    M-Maya?
[06:27] Maya
    The defense has brought a new witness!
[06:30] PW
    A-A witness?
SIGN    Witness — Security Guard — Larry Butz
[06:35] LB
    Yo, Nick!
[06:37] PW
    L-Larry? Why are you here?
[06:40] Maya
    Actually, yesterday...
[06:42] PW
    Wait, aren't you...
[06:44] PW
    Larry?!
[06:45] LB
    Huh? Maya?
[06:47] PW
    He went to Ron's place?
[06:50] Maya
    Hear him out! His testimony
    will come in handy!
[06:53] LB
    I'll help ya out.
[06:55] LB
    We're pals, aren't we?
[06:57] PW
    But nothing good ever comes from you...
[07:00] LB
    The thing is, I found that the other day.
[07:04] Ama
    Hey, that's my wallet!
[07:08] LB
    There was a license and stuff inside.
[07:11] LB
    So I had to get it to him.
    That's what anyone would do, right?
[07:16] PW
    A photo of Desiree?
    So that's why he went, huh?
[07:19] Maya
    Anyway, when did you find that wallet, again?
[07:22] LB
    Oh, it was two days ago.
[07:25] LB
    I found it outside my workplace
    late at night.
[07:27] PW
    Why was Ron's wallet there?
[07:29] LB
    Nothing weird about that.
    He works there, doesn't he?
[07:34] PW
    He does?
[07:35] LB
    I found something else in the wallet.
[07:38] LB
    A KB Security key card. That's where I work.
[07:43] LB
    Each serial number has logs.
[07:45] LB
    And that card was used to enter
    and leave the building that night.
[07:51] PW
    Logs?
[07:52] PW
    At what time?
[07:53] LB
    I think it was around 1 AM.
[07:57] PW
    1 AM, two nights ago?
[07:59] PW
    That's when the urn was stolen!
[08:01] J
    Defendant, are you an
    employee of KB Security?
[08:06] Ama
    W-Well, kind of.
    I used to be, until a year ago.
[08:10] PW
    You used to be?
[08:12] Ama
    Yes. I was fired.
[08:14] PW
    Larry, how far is KB Security
    from the Lordly Tailor?
[08:20] LB
    Thirty minutes away, I'd say?
[08:22] PW
    Thirty minutes?
[08:25] PW
    Then he couldn't have stolen the urn
    from Lordly Tailor at the same time!
[08:31] PW
    Ergo...
[08:32] PW
    The defendant can't be Mask DeMasque!
[08:39] God
    You're pretty good, Mr. Trite.
[08:42] J
    But why did you go there when
    you don't work there anymore?
[08:48] J
    And so late at night, too.
[08:51] PW
    Ron...
[08:53] Maya
    Nick!
[08:56] PW
    What is this?
[08:58] Maya
    I found it at Ron's place.
[09:01] PW
    What is this?
[09:03] Maya
    I read that and remembered something.
[09:05] Mar
    There's more to this case
    than meets the eye!
[09:07] Mar
    Please! I beg you!
[09:11] Maya
    So I decided to believe what Desiree said.
[09:16] PW
    Maya...
[09:18] Pearl
    I'm really sorry about yesterday.
[09:20] Pearl
    You two ended up fighting because of me.
[09:22] Maya
    No! I was the one in the wrong!
[09:25] PW
    Maya, Pearls.
[09:27] PW
    Thank you.
[09:29] PW
    Your Honor!
SIGN    If you don't want your secret identity revealed, bring me $50,000. I'll waiting in the CEO's office of KB Security at 1 AM, September 12th. If you don't have the money, sell off that red diamond you stole recently.
[09:31] PW
    The defense would like to present
    a new piece of evidence!
[09:34] Ama
    Ah! Th-That's...

[09:38] PW
    "Bring me fifty thousand dollars."
[09:40] PW
    This is blackmail.
[09:42] PW
    At the time of the theft, Ron DeLite
    was dealing with the blackmailer...
[09:48] PW
    in KB Security's CEO's office!
[09:50] God
    By the way, do you have proof that
    the kid entered the CEO's office?
[09:57] PW
    Well...
[09:58] Maya
    Oh, we do!
[10:00] Maya
    Right, Larry?
[10:01] LB
    Yeah.
[10:02] LB
    Look up the key card logs. It'll tell
    you exactly who entered where and when.
[10:08] PW
    Larry, you...
[10:11] J
    What do you say, Prosecutor Godot?
[10:14] God
    Well, that's a passing grade.
[10:17] God
    These are the access logs for
    KB Security's CEO office.
[10:20] God
    There's a record at 1 AM
    on the night of the crime.
[10:23] God
    And it was probably that card right there.
[10:25] PW
    W-Wait, you knew about this?
[10:30] God
    I'm meticulous with my ground work,
    both in investigations and coffee.
[10:33] PW
    Were you testing me, Prosecutor Godot?
[10:37] God
    "If you don't want your secret
    identity revealed," huh?
[10:41] God
    What could this be about?
[10:43] Ama
    M-Mask DeMasque, of course...
[10:48] PW
    Anyway, the defendant wasn't
    the thief that night!
[10:52] God
    Very well.
[10:54] God
    Ron DeLite was clearly at KB Security
    at the time of the crime.
[10:58] God
    The prosecutor's office is
    ready to admit that as a fact.
[11:03] Maya
    You did it, Nick!
[11:06] Ama
    N-No... But I am the phantom thief.
[11:10] J
    But then, who stole the Kurain urn?
[11:16] PW
    Only someone who was in the basement
    warehouse back then could've stolen the urn.
[11:22] PW
    Who was there at the time?
[11:28] PW
    Don't tell me!
[11:30] PW
    There's one person I can think of.
[11:33] God
    Oh? And who's that?
[11:35] PW
    It's...
[11:36] PW
    It's the prosecutor's witness for today,
    Ace Detective Luke Atmey!
[11:47] Luke
    Greetings, ladies and gentlemen!
[11:52] J
    Witness, state your name and occupation.
[11:55] Luke
    My name is Luke Atmey, Ace Detective
    and rising star that illuminates the heavens.
[12:01] God
    Would you dispel the darkness
    within my cup with your light?
[12:05] Luke
    Certainly, Sir Prosecutor.
[12:08] Maya
    We've got two real pieces of work here now.
[12:10] PW
    What's worse, I feel like
    they'd make the perfect pair.
[12:14] Luke
    Unbelievable, Sir Lawyer.
[12:16] Luke
    You indict me, the Ace Detective?
[12:19] Luke
    You're ignoring the laws
    of society yet again!
[12:23] Pearl
    W-Will you be okay, Nick?
[12:27] PW
    I've got no choice but to go for it.
[12:30] PW
    Mr. Atmey...
[12:34] PW
    Remember what you said yesterday?
[12:35] Luke
    Yes! And, Ace Detective that I am,
    I laid a trap and waited for him alone.
[12:41] PW
    In other words, it was possible
    for you to steal the Kurain urn.
[12:45] Ama
    Th-The detective stole the urn?
[12:48] Luke
    Sadly for you, Sir Lawyer, that picture
    speaks louder than a thousand words.
[12:54] Luke
    Yes! And it points to
    Mask DeMasque as the culprit!
[13:00] Luke
    By the way, that footage was
    captured by a Lordly Tailor camera.
[13:04] Luke
    It could not have been tampered with.
[13:07] PW
    There was no need to.
[13:09] Luke
    What?
[13:10] PW
    You could pretend to be
    on guard duty as a detective
[13:13] PW
    and steal the urn as a phantom thief!
[13:15] PW
    Mr. Atmey!
[13:17] PW
    You are Mask DeMasque!
[13:20] Luke
    Gurk!
[13:21] J
    What do you have to say, witness?
[13:27] J
    Witness?
[13:32] Luke
    Mask DeMasque's M.O. is pure genius!
[13:35] Luke
    And so am I, Ace Detective Luke Atmey!
[13:38] Luke
    Perhaps only I could be
    the man behind the mask.
[13:41] Luke
    Wouldn't you say so, ladies and gentlemen?
[13:43] J
    You're admitting it?
[13:45] Maya

    P-Prosecutor Godot!
[14:03] God
    "The Ace Detective is actually an Ace Thief"?
[14:05] God
    A very sweet fairy tale,
[14:08] God
    but reality is far more bitter.
[14:11] J
    But it makes sense to me.
[14:14] God
    Too much sense, in fact... Mr. Trite.
[14:20] God
    The lonely wolf became a thief?
[14:22] God
    That's fine.
[14:24] God
    But you'd better show us
    the proof of your claim.
[14:27] God
    And it had better be as bitter
    and hot as that coffee!
[14:30] Luke
    Indeed.
[14:32] Luke
    If you have no proof, you're merely rambling.
[14:34] Luke
    And you won't even catch a dog
    with that, let alone a wolf.
[14:36] Luke
    Well, Sir Lawyer?

    I'd love to settle things
    right here and now, but...

    to stay on the attack!
[14:58] PW
    I'll never get another chance
    to prove that he's the thief!
[15:01] Luke
    Came up short when it counted, huh?

    It'd be the easiest thing in the

[16:11] Mar
    N-No! I found it in that guy's office!

    This town is already filled

    So long as the urn isn't proven to
    have been in the witness's office,

    ...by the fingerprints on it!
[16:50] God
    Fingerprints?
[16:52] Luke
    Oh, come on.
[16:53] Luke
    You're making me laugh, Sir Lawyer.
[16:55] Luke
    Fingerprints? Really?
[16:57] Luke
    Now, it would be perfectly understandable
    if my fingerprints were on the urn.
[17:03] Luke
    After all, it was I who was
    guarding it in the first place!
[17:08] PW
    Unfortunately for you, I'm not presenting
    your fingerprints as evidence.
[17:13] PW
    Mr. Atmey, do you recall
    the events of yesterday?
[17:17] PW
    The Kurain urn was in that bag, huh?
[17:20] Luke
    I-Impossible...
[17:22] PW
    Sure, I didn't look in the bag.
[17:24] PW
    But, back then,
[17:26] PW
    I did touch what was inside!
[17:28] Luke
    Wh-What?!
[17:30] PW
    Your Honor!
[17:31] PW
    Please examine the fingerprints on that urn.
[17:34] PW
    If my fingerprints are on there,
[17:35] PW
    then it proves that the urn was
    in Detective Atmey's office!

    the exhibition said this:

    so it'd look more valuable!

    any and all fingerprints on it.

    Yeah! That was the coolest thing!

    Early this morning, the body of KB Security
    CEO Kane Bullard was discovered.
[20:10] God
    He was murdered.
[20:12] God
    The estimated time of death
    was 1 AM on September 12th.
[20:16] PW
    1 AM? You don't mean...
[20:19] God
    That's right, amigo.
[20:20] God
    At the same time a cheap
    little urn was being stolen,
[20:22] God
    there was a murder happening
    over at KB Security.
[20:25] PW
    So, then... what brings you here?
[20:28] God
    Did you forget what we worked
    together to prove today?
[20:33] PW
    We worked together?
[20:35] God
    On September 12th at 1 AM,
[20:38] God
    Ron DeLite was in
    KB Security's CEO's office...
[20:43] God
    The scene of the murder.
[20:45] God
    After getting that blackmail letter,
    he must've been imbrued with utter rage.
[20:51] God
    That's right. We proved in
    today's trial the kid's alibi...
[20:57] God
    Or rather, his anti-alibi.
[20:59] May
    Anti?
[21:01] God
    The defendant didn't steal the urn.
[21:03] God
    Because he was at a murder
    scene at that time!
[21:07] Mar
    No! That can't be!
[21:10] Ama
    I-I didn't... I-I'm only a thief...
[21:15] God
    We'll have to detain you for a while longer.
[21:18] God
    On a different charge, though.
[21:20] God
    This time, it's murder.
[21:22] Maya
    What's going on?
[21:23] Maya
    A murder?!
[21:25] PW
    Was this your goal all along?
[21:28] God
    I'm looking forward to another
    exciting showdown, Mr. Trite.
[21:32] PW
    Just who is this guy?
[21:36] PW
    I sense a quiet but deep hatred
    coming from him!
[21:40] Mar
    No!
