    Is the prosecution ready?
[03:02] J
    Erm, Mr. von Karma?

    What a pushover!
[03:21] J
    Very well. Your opening statement, please.

    Decisive evidence... A decisive witness...

    Nothing, of course. That should be fine.

SIGN    Witness: District Police Detective Dick Gumshoe
[03:45] VK
    Describe the incident. Now.
[03:46] DG
    Yessir!
SIGN    Witness Testimony
[03:49] DG
    This is a map of Gourd Lake, the crime scene.
[03:52] ---
    At 12:10 AM, a woman heard a gunshot
    and looked at the lake,
[03:57] ---
    where she saw two men on a boat.
[03:59] ---
    The next instant, another gunshot rang out,
[04:02] ---
    and one of the men fell into the lake.
[04:05] ---
    The night of the murder,
    the lake was covered by fog—
[04:08] VK
    That's enough!
[04:08] DG
    Sir?
[04:10] VK
    Next, testify to the court about your arrest.
[04:13] J
    Actually, I'm the one who's supposed
    to handle these proceedings...
[04:17] VK
    Wrong. There is only one thing
    you need to do here.
[04:19] VK
    You will slam down your gavel
     and say the word "guilty."
[04:23] J
    Y-Yes, of course! You're quite right!
[04:25] Bo
    No, he's not!
[04:27] DG
    The police got a call after 12:30 AM,
[04:30] DG
    arrived at the scene five minutes later,
[04:33] DG
    and apprehended Mr. Edgeworth,
    whom they found nearby.
[04:37] VK
    Did they find anything at the time?
[04:39] DG
    Yessir. The pistol thought to
    be the murder weapon...
[04:42] VK
    Were there any fingerprints on it?
[04:44] DG
    Yes... sir.
[04:46] VK
    Whose?
[04:48] DG
    M-Mr. Edgeworth's...
[04:51] DG
    Clear prints from his right hand.
[04:55] DG
    The next morning, a man's body
    was found in the lake.
[05:00] DG
    Estimated time of death was around midnight.
[05:03] DG
    He was shot once through the heart... fatally.
[05:08] VK
    Judge, here's the bullet.
[05:13] VK
    Was this bullet fired from the pistol in question?
[05:17] DG
    Yes. The ballistic markings on
    the bullet match the pistol.
[05:20] PW
    One moment.
[05:21] DG
    Wh-What is it, pal?
[05:23] PW
    Speaking of that...
[05:24] DG
    Yes?
[05:26] PW
    What are "ballistic markings" again?
[05:29] J
    Ballistic markings are like
    the "fingerprints" of a gun.
[05:34] J
    The barrel leaves distinctive marks
    on each bullet it fires.
[05:38] J
    You can examine these marks to see
    which gun fired the shot.
[05:44] DG
    The victim is Robert Hammond, an attorney.
[05:47] VK
    How well did he and the defendant
    know each other?
[05:49] DG
    We found that he summoned
    Mr. Edgeworth to the scene.
[05:53] VK
    To what end?
[05:55] DG
    Regarding that, Mr. Edgeworth has
    exercised his r-right to silence.
[06:03] VK
    That is all.
[06:04] VK
    An eyewitness, fingerprints,
    and familiarity with the victim...
[06:07] VK
    All of it points to Miles Edgeworth as the culprit.
[06:12] VK
    Let us hear from the witness, then.
SIGN    Witness: Self-Proclaimed Journalist — Lotta Hart
[06:21] LH
    Yoo-hoo!
[06:24] VK
    This is Ms. Lotta Hart,
    the witness who heard the gunfire.
[06:28] LH
    So this is what a courtroom's like.
[06:30] LH
    Standin' here has always
    been on my bucket list.
[06:32] VK
    Tell us what you saw on the night of the murder.
SIGN    Witness Testimony
[06:36] LH
    It was Christmas Eve, just after midnight, I reckon.
SIGN    Testimony
[06:41] LH
    I was asleep in my tent, when I heard
    this bang comin' from the lake.
[06:47] LH
    I looked toward the lake
    and faintly saw two gents in the fog.
[06:51] LH
    Then there was another bang.
[06:54] VK
    She happened to take a photo of the moment.
[07:01] M
    No way!
[07:02] J
    Th-This looks like the very
    moment of the murder!
[07:06] VK
    It was the victim and the defendant on that boat.
[07:09] VK
    Ergo, it couldn't have been anyone
    but Miles Edgeworth who fired!
[07:16] VK
    Any objections, defense?
[07:19] PW
    I, uh...
[07:22] VK
    There we have it. This trial is over.
[07:25] M
    What?
[07:26] J
    Yes, the defense's silence tells the whole story.
[07:31] VK
    Hand down your verdict at once, Judge.
[07:35] M
    N-Nick!
[07:36] PW
    Hold it!
[07:37] PW
    I haven't cross-examined the witness yet!
[07:41] VK
    No need. This photo is worth a thousand
    words... and they all read "guilty"!
[07:45] J
    But the defense does have the right
    to cross-examine the witness.
[07:49] VK
    Very well. You may ask one,
    and only one, question.
[07:52] PW
    J-Just one?
[07:54] VK
    If it changes nothing, we will
    proceed to the verdict.
[07:59] PW
    That's absurd!
[08:01] ME
    The judge has already found the
    prosecution's evidence decisive.
[08:06] ME
    We have no choice but
    to accept his terms.
[08:08] PW
    Is this how the god of prosecutors does things?
[08:12] M
    I'm sorry, Nick.
[08:14] M
    I know we could really use
    my sister's help right now,
[08:18] M
    but I just can't channel her.
[08:20] PW
    Maya...
[08:21] VK
    Should your question be irrelevant,
[08:23] VK
    I'll have you thrown out for contempt of court.
[08:27] PW
    He doesn't want the witness to testify further.
[08:31] PW
    Which means there must be
    a hole in her testimony!
[08:36] PW
    I agree to question the witness
    on Mr. von Karma's terms!
[08:39] M
    Nick!
SIGN    Cross-Examination
[08:43] PW
    Ms. Hart, when you heard the second shot...
[08:47] LH
    There was a loud bang, and then another.
[08:50] PW
    Did you clearly see the boat or the two men?
[08:54] LH
    Just look at the photo. Clear enough for you?
[08:56] PW
    I wasn't asking about the photo.
    I was asking if you saw—
[08:59] VK
    Enough!
[09:01] VK
    This is a pointless line of questioning,
    considering we have a photograph.
[09:04] LH
    Ayup. Very pointless, fella.
[09:06] PW
    Your Honor!
[09:07] J
    Since the answer contains no new information,
[09:12] J
    that ends the cross-examination.
[09:13] PW
    What?
[09:19] VK
    Then give your verdict, Judge.
SIGN    Objection!
[09:22] M
    Objection!
[09:26] PW
    Maya?
[09:27] M
    Lotta Hart,
[09:29] M
    your testimony stinks.
[09:31] LH
    Wh-What?
[09:32] M
    Due to the fog, the photo is unclear.
[09:34] M
    And you refuse to elaborate on
    whether you saw the two men.
[09:38] M
    Tell us the truth!
[09:40] M
    This is a matter of life or death!
[09:44] LH
    Why're you makin' me out to be the bad guy?
[09:47] LH
    I s-saw him!
[09:49] LH
    I clearly saw Edgeworth!
[09:54] VK
    Judge, declare the defense in contempt of court.
[10:01] J
    Yes, of course.
[10:02] J
    Escort Mr. Wright out of the courtr—
[10:05] M
    Wait!
[10:06] M
    I was the one who made the outburst!
[10:08] M
    Nick is innocent!
[10:11] J
    Wh-What?
[10:12] M
    I'll take any punishment you dish out.
[10:15] M
    But did you hear what Ms. Hart just said?
[10:18] M
    She said she clearly saw Edgeworth!
[10:21] M
    That was not in the testimony!
[10:24] VK
    Throw that girl out immediately!
[10:30] M
    Nick, this is all I can do!
[10:33] PW
    Maya!

    The rest is in your hands!
[10:36] M
    Keep fighting for Edgeworth!

[10:46] VK
    Peh! I dislike this melodrama.
[10:48] VK
    Declare the verdict now, Judge.
SIGN    Objection!
[10:50] PW
    Objection!
[10:56] PW
    The witness just claimed that
    she clearly saw Miles Edgeworth that night!
[11:03] PW
    That changes her testimony,
    and I have a right to cross-examine her!
SIGN    Objection!
[11:08] ---
    Objection!
[11:10] VK
    Your cross-examination is already over!
[11:20] J
    The court sustains the defense's objection.
[11:22] VK
    What?
[11:24] J
    You may continue your cross-examination.
[11:26] PW
    Thank you, Your Honor!
[11:27] VK
    How foolish!
[11:31] PW
    Thank you, Maya.
[11:33] PW
    I won't waste this last chance you gave me.
[11:41] PW
    Ms. Hart,
[11:42] PW
    you said you clearly saw Edgeworth.
[11:46] LH
    Y-Yeah, I did...
[11:49] PW
    But as this photo shows,
    the lake was covered with fog.
[11:53] PW
    How could you have seen his face?
SIGN    Objection!
[11:56] VK
    Objection!
[11:57] VK
    The photograph doesn't necessarily
    tell the whole story.
[12:00] PW
    What do you mean?
[12:02] LH
    Yeah, the fog was thick as grits.
[12:04] LH
    But I was looking through these.
[12:08] PW
    B-Binoculars?
[12:10] PW
    When I heard that noise, I whipped 'em out!
[12:15] J
    Yes, I suppose she could have seen
    the defendant's face with binoculars.
[12:21] VK
    Indeed, there is no problem with her testimony.
SIGN    Large, Mysterious Creature Spotted at Gourd Lake!!
[12:29] PW
    Ms. Hart...
[12:31] PW
    Weren't you staking out the lake
    hoping to see Gourdy?
[12:36] LH
    What of it?
[12:37] PW
    Gourdy's first sighting was
    accompanied by a bang,
[12:41] PW
    so you set your camera be triggered
    by loud noises, yes?
[12:45] LH
    Ayup, and that's how we have that picture.
[12:48] PW
    Now, what would you do if you heard a gunshot?
[12:53] PW
    You'd be scanning the lake for
    any sign of Gourdy, that's what.
[12:58] PW
    You wouldn't give the boat a second thought!
[13:01] LH
    All right!
[13:03] LH
    Where is it?
[13:03] LH
    Where's my Gourdy?!
[13:06] J
    Witness, are you saying you
    weren't watching the boat?
[13:09] LH
    True, every cell in my body was
    looking for Gourdy at the time.
[13:15] J
    Wh-What in the...
[13:17] LH
    S-Sorry, y'all.
[13:18] LH
    I thought I could be witness to
    a murder n' got all excited.
[13:22] LH
    But hey...
[13:23] LH
    You got the photograph! You got real proof!
[13:27] PW
    But we can't see who is shooting who in this.
[13:31] LH
    Right! Right!
[13:33] LH
    I knew you'd bring that up, Nick.
[13:36] LH
    That's why I took this photo n' enlarged it—
[13:41] VK
    That's enough.
[13:42] VK
    You've had a long day. Shut your pie-hole.
[13:44] LH
    Sh-Shut my what?!

    Wh-What?
[13:58] PW
    You enlarged this photograph, yes?
[14:00] LH
    Y-Yeah! I did!
[14:02] VK
    No such enlarged version exists.
[14:05] LH
    Hey, I gave it to you fer free!
[14:08] VK
    Quiet.
[14:09] PW
    Your Honor,
[14:10] PW
    I demand that the enlarged photo be
    submitted to the court as evidence!
[14:15] VK
    There's no need.
[14:17] J
    The witness will show the
    court this enlargement.
[14:21] LH
    Hell yeah!
[14:23] LH
    Here it is.
[14:26] PW
    There must be something. What is it?
[14:28] J
    Hmm... We still cannot see
    who's shooting in this.
[14:33] VK
    Indeed. Little good it has done any of us.
[14:36] VK
    This is why I didn't submit it to the court.
[14:39] PW
    But von Karma tried to hide its
    very existence from the court.
[14:42] PW
    There must be a reason why.
[14:52] PW
    I see!
[14:53] VK
    That should end this pointless trial.
SIGN    Objection!
[14:56] PW
    Objection!
[14:58] PW
    This enlarged photo contains
    a total contradiction!
[15:02] J
    A contradiction?
[15:04] PW
    Think back to Detective Gumtree's
    earlier testimony.
[15:08] VK
    Were there any fingerprints on it?
[15:11] DG
    Mr. Edgeworth's...
[15:13] DG
    Clear prints from his right hand.
[15:16] PW
    But look at this photograph!
[15:19] PW
    The man in this photograph is
    holding the pistol in his left hand!
[15:24] PW
    Ergo, the man firing in this photograph
    couldn't have been Miles Edgeworth!
[15:38] J
    True, the photograph does contradict the
    fingerprints on the murder weapon.
[15:42] J
    Therefore, I would like to suspend
    proceedings for the day.
[15:45] J
    The court orders the defense and the
    prosecution to further investigate.
[15:49] PW
    Yes, Your Honor.
[16:01] PW
    What are you doing, Detective Gumtree?
[16:05] DG
    Oh, you got out?
[16:07] M
    Um, thank you. I hear you bailed me out
    of the contempt of court charge.
[16:14] DG
    That trial deserves all the contempt it gets!
[16:17] M
    Yeah, it needs to be treated with contempt!
[16:21] PW
    Uh, please make this the first and last time.
[16:23] DG
    Besides, I wasn't the one who bailed you out.
[16:26] DG
    It was Mr. Edgeworth.
[16:28] M
    Huh? Edgeworth?
[16:30] PW
    That reminds me...
[16:32] ME
    It seems I have accrued a large debt.
[16:34] PW
    Don't mention it.
[16:35] ME
    Not to you. To Maya.
[16:38] PW
    Ah, right, that...
[16:41] ME
    I shall post the entire bail.

    Go pick her up right now.
[16:47] PW
    Edgeworth...
[16:49] PW
    Could you also pay this month's
    office rent while you're at it?

[16:54] M

    things might not have gotten so bad.

    Thank you, Maya.
[17:08] DG
    Hey, this is no time to be moping about.
[17:12] DG
    Mr. Edgeworth is still trembling
    all alone at the detention center.
[17:16] M
    Yeah, we're the only ones who
    can wipe away his tears.
[17:21] PW
    Are we really talking about
    the same Edgeworth here?
[17:24] PW
    By the way, what is that?
[17:25] DG
    Oh, it's a metal detector.
[17:28] DG
    I was trying to find any other clues...
[17:37] DG
    But as you can see, it's a wash.
[17:38] M
    That's awesome!
[17:40] M
    Hey, Detective, I wanna use it, too!
[17:44] DG
    Sure.
[17:45] DG
    Take it and go.

    Yay!

    What are you playing at?
[17:57] M
    It's not reacting at all.
[17:59] LH
    Hey, y'all!
[18:00] M
    Oh, Lotta.
[18:04] LH
    See, I did a little thinking.
    A little self-reflection.
[18:06] LH
    I realized that bein' a witness
    is a mighty big responsibility.
[18:09] PW
    It sure is.
[18:10] LH
    With that scary prosecutor glarin' at me,
    I convinced myself I'd seen it.

    You mean von Karma?

    the tank to inflate the Steel Samurai.
[19:29] LB
    Huh?
[19:34] [SONG] LB
    Samurai Buns
[19:34] LB
    That was basically a rocket
    with the Steel Samurai attached.
[19:38] PW
    Then a miracle occurred.
[19:40] M
    A miracle?
[19:43] PW
    The Steel Samurai flew out into the lake...
[19:47] PW
    And fell into the water.
[19:49] PW
    At that very moment...
[19:53] LH
    That's the story behind the photo?!
[19:55] PW
    The loud bang must have been the
    sound of the tank's pipe flying off.
[19:59] M
    Then Gourdy is actually...
[20:02] PW
    A deflated Steel Samurai, probably.
[20:06] LH
    My dreams just deflated, too.
[20:11] LB
    That's awesome!
[20:12] LH
    What's so funny?
[20:13] LB
    Gouchy!
[20:17] M
    Lotta!
[20:19] M
    Don't give up on finding your big scoop.
[20:22] M
    I'll become a fine spirit medium myself.
[20:25] LH
    I see you also have a mighty unique goal.
[20:29] PW
    Well, take care.
[20:31] LH
    Y'all, too!
[20:36] LH
    Oh, right.
[20:37] LH
    I told you my camera took
    two pictures that night, right?
[20:42] PW
    The first was never submitted
    to the court, huh?
[20:45] LH
    Well, there's nothin' in it but lake.
[20:48] LH
    But you can have it, for what it's worth.
[20:51] LH
    As thanks for tellin' me what Gourdy really was.
[20:54] M
    Thank you.
[20:57] PW
    There really is nothing in it but lake.
[20:59] LH
    But back then, there really was a loud bang.
[21:03] LH
    Smell y'all later!
[21:06] LH
    Oh, yeah... One more thing.
[21:08] PW
    There's more?
[21:10] LH
    Information hot off the presses.
[21:12] LH
    Apparently, the one who called the cops
    was the old man at the boat rental.
[21:16] PW
    Really?
[21:18] LH
    But they summoned me 'cause I'd liven
    court up better than an old man.
[21:22] LH
    Smell y'all later, for real this time!
[21:23] PW
    "Liven court up"? Really?

    I'm home, Polly.
[21:30] Polly
    Good morning.
[21:32] M
    Hello!
[21:34] PW
    Excuse us!
[21:34] YY
    It seems we have visitors.
[21:38] Polly
    Don't forget...
[21:39] YY
    Shh, Polly.
[21:41] Polly
    Don't forget.
[21:43] Polly
    Don't forget DL-6! Don't forget DL-6!

    Objection!
[23:22] PW
    The appearance of a new witness
[23:24] PW
    shrouds the truth of the murder
    in even more darkness.
[23:26] PW
    Echoes of the past keep repeating
    the name of a certain incident.
[23:30] PW
    This suspicious trial proceeds according to
    the undefeated von Karma's designs.
[23:35] PW
    And just when Edgeworth's verdict is given,
[23:37] PW
    that man yells, "Hold it."
[23:39] PW
    Find the contradictions!
[23:40] PW
    Reach out to the truth!
