    The case that Maya picked to be our first
    was a murder involving a superhero.
[00:05] PW
    Backed into a corner by all the evidence,
[00:07] PW
    I accused the old lady on
    the stand of the murder.
[00:11] PW
    Trembling with rage, she revealed
    a shocking truth to the court!

    Actually, there's something I
    was told not to mention.
[01:49] PW
    N-Not to mention?
[01:51] ME
    What?
[01:53] OB
    Exactly!
[01:54] OB
    Listen up, and listen good.
[01:56] OB
    Some other people were at the studios
    on the day of the murder!
[02:03] ME
    Impossible!
[02:04] ME
    We hadn't heard of this!
[02:06] J
    Witness, why keep this crucial
    information from the court?
[02:10] OB
    Ain't you been listening?
[02:12] OB
    What was I to do? They told me to shut my trap!
[02:15] OB
    They said they had "nothing to do with it," see?
[02:17] OB
    They said to pretend they
    "weren't at the studios."
[02:20] PW
    Who were these people?
[02:22] OB
    There was a meeting of TV bigwigs,
    the director, and the producer.
[02:26] PW
    And where was this meeting held?
[02:29] OB
    Oh, in the Studio Two trailer.
[02:31] M
    Studio Two?
[02:33] M
    This is the first we've heard of this.
[02:35] PW
    Your Honor, we've learned there were
    others at the studio that day.
[02:40] PW
    Yet, as we stand here,
    they haven't even been questioned.
[02:42] PW
    I hold that it is impossible to
    declare a verdict right now!
[02:46] J
    What do you say, Mr. Edgeworth?
[02:50] ME
    I have no choice but to agree.

    Dear me, Edgey-boy...
    Don't gaze at me so passionately.
[02:57] J
    Very well.

    You've gotta tell us these things,

    You should have just told him
    you're the Steel Samurai.

    He risks his life to fight for what's right.

    After he posed for me, I secretly

    Thank you for telling us.
[18:58] M
    Then, the photos really are gone, huh?
[19:02] CH
    There's one left.
[19:05] CH
    There's one I didn't delete on here.
[19:08] M
    Really?
[19:09] CH
    Yeah, look.
[19:16] PW
    Wh-What is this?
[19:20] OB
    "What's right"...
[19:38] DV
    Don't you know when to give up?
[19:39] DV
    What now?
[19:41] PW
    This is a photograph taken on
    the day of the murder.
[19:44] PW
    Hammer showed up here,
    wearing the Steel Samurai costume.
[19:50] PW
    Yes, Hammer was killed here,
[19:54] PW
    at Studio Two!
[19:56] PW
    That means you all could've
    killed him, Ms. Vasquez.
[20:01] DV
    What, are you saying he came here to die?
[20:05] PW
    W-Well...
[20:10] PW
    Uh, what's this about?
[20:13] DV
    Keep spewing that rubbish, and you
    might miss tomorrow's trial...
[20:20] M
    N-Nick...
[20:22] DG
    Wait a minute, pal!
[20:24] Bo
    Detective Suedeshoes?
[20:26] DG
    Dee Vasquez,
[20:27] DG
    I've come to deliver your summons
    for tomorrow's trial...
[20:31] DG
    But what the hell is going on here?
[20:34] DV
    Don't ask me...
[20:35] DV
    Ask the boy over there.
    He barged in and started this.
[20:39] PW
    Boy?
[20:40] DV
    Listen... No matter where
    the murder took place,
[20:43] DV
    I, at the very least, could not
    have committed it.
[20:46] M
    Wh-Why?
[20:49] DV
    Hammer was killed using the Samurai Spear.
[20:52] DV
    Who would believe that a petite woman like me
    used that heavy spear as a weapon?
[20:58] DG
    True...
[21:00] DG
    The murder weapon weighs fifteen kilos.
[21:03] DG
    It's really heavy.
[21:05] DV
    Besides, Hammer was a star who
    made me loads of money.
[21:09] DV
    Why in the world would I want him dead?
[21:11] PW
    Th-That's...
[21:14] DV
    If you want to accuse someone of murder,
[21:17] DV
    at least have the decency to bring proof.
[21:25] OB
    "As a fan, you can't avert your eyes," huh?
[21:29] OB
    Hammer...
[21:33] DV
    Anything else, Mr. Attorney?
[21:39] PW
    I'll see you in court tomorrow, Ms. Vasquez.

[23:20] PW
    Objection!
[23:21] PW
    The true culprit keeps smiling, even in court.
[23:26] PW
    Bold and brave, she speaks confidently.
[23:29] PW
    Can I wipe that smile off her face?
[23:32] PW
    What was the actual murder weapon?
[23:34] PW
    And why did the murder happen?
[23:37] PW
    Was it really premeditated?
[23:39] PW
    The Steel Samurai case reaches
    its outrageous conclusion.

    Find the contradictions!
