Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Justice For All/Episode 3: Turnabout Big Top/Part 1: Investigation

You, Maya, and Pearl emerge from the big top, having just watched the whole circus show: dancing bears, elephants on balls, tigers through rings, and of course Maximillion Galactica. It's been six months since the incident in Kurain Village, and it's almost the New Year. Maya and Pearl are heading home to Kurain, but Maya says she will be back before too long. You decide to clean up the office, hoping that the New Year would indeed be happy...

Wright & Co. Law Offices (1)
You come to the office to find it a complete mess. You then get a call from Maya, who sounds desperate. You learn from her that there has been a murder at the Berry Big Circus - the very circus you were at only a few days ago! The police have arrested the suspect - Max Galactica, Maya's idol. Maya wants you to come to the Detention Center, since she is a huge fan of Max (Wait! She's a fan of Steel Samurai and now this as well?!). She isn't really giving you a choice. Move to the Detention Center.

Detention Center
Here you'll find the fabulous Max Galactica himself (his real name is Billy Bob Johns), who plays a card trick on Maya. Talk to Max.

 * Max Galactica: Max talks himself up to the max, boasting about his recent winning of the "Magician's Grand Prix", the most prestigious of magicians' awards.
 * Berry Big Circus: He gained great fortune from his contract with the Berry Big Circus.
 * What happened: Max says the ringmaster of the circus was killed. Max was the last to see Russell Berry and was "invited for questioning".
 * Meeting with Russell: Max says Russell invited him over to his office. He says they talked about nothing special - just about Max's salary. Max says they talked about nothing else, but 3 Psyche-Locks tell you otherwise.

Present to Max your Attorney's Badge. Max looks like he is taking his arrest a little too well. What!? He's under suspicion of murder! How could he take this as a joke? After reasoning with him, Max finally breaks character and starts pleading for your help, as he has a family in the countryside to feed. You agree to help him. Max then plays one last card trick on you, and decides to have faith in you.

Time to start investigating. Move to the Circus Entrance if you are playing on any version other than the HD iOS port and the Steam 2019 Trilogy, move to the Wright & Co. Law Offices if you are playing the HD iOS port or the Steam 2019 Trilogy.

Wright & Co. Law Offices (2)

 * Achievement: Naruhodo A. Wrighto

Present Max Galactica's profile to Maya in the iOS HD port and the Steam port.

Now move to the Circus Entrance.

Circus Entrance
You are at the Berry Big Circus again, this time to work. You see nothing but police here. Move to the Big Top.

Big Top
Once you enter, a tiger attacks you! Don't worry, as someone will bring him under control. It looks like a young girl, who says the tiger wouldn't bite you. (Really?) The girl will introduce herself as Regina Berry, the animal tamer of the Circus. Talk to Regina.

 * What happened: Regina says the murder victim is her father. For some reason, she is taking the incident well. Everyone except Regina left the big top before the murder occurred...
 * Regina: Regina says she and Regent (the tiger that attacked you earlier) had been best friends since the death of Léon the lion. Regina says her dad killed him, but she doesn't know why.

Present Max's Profile. Regina apparently didn't know that Max was arrested. Regina says she has her mind on other things.

 * "What's on your mind?". Regina only wants to tell Maya, who is amazed. Maya tells you that two people professed their love to Regina: Max, and Trilo, a tenor singer of the circus. Regina must be a hit with the gentlemen here.

Present Russell Berry's Profile to Regina. Regina says she last saw her father running from his nearby office, seemingly in a hurry.

Max had a meeting with the Ringmaster in his office just before the murder, right? Let's see if there was more to that conversation.

 * Achievement: Ladders Vs. Step-Ladders

Examine the ladder

Move to the Big Top - Ringmaster's Room.

Ringmaster's Room

Examine the envelope on the table. It's about Max's salary, and it looks incredible! Phoenix, however, sees that it is dated a week ago. The Ringmaster's Papers will be added to the Court Record.

Examine the posters on the wall near the tailcoat. Maya, being the obsessed fangirl she is, has already swiped a Max G. Promo Poster, which will be added to the Court Record.

After you're done, Move to the Lodging House - Plaza, via the Circus Entrance.

Plaza
This looks like the place where the performers live. You'll see Gumshoe here. Talk to Gumshoe.

 * Tomorrow's Trial: Gumshoe will say that the prosecutor for this case will be Franziska von Karma again. Maya then asks Gumshoe about Miles Edgeworth (your rival from the first game). You and Gumshoe tell Maya that Edgeworth is "gone".
 * What happened: Gumshoe says Russell was killed at around 10 PM, on the spot you're standing on right now. He says the victim died from a deadly blow to the head. Gumshoe says something feels odd about the crime scene.
 * Something unusual: The thing that doesn't fit is the footprints. Gumshoe shows you the picture of the crime scene. It looks like a wooden box is under the body - scientists took the box for forensic examination. You then see the odd thing: you can clearly see the victim's footprints, but not the killer's. It's almost as if the killer murdered Russell while "flying" (sound familiar?). The Crime Photo will be added to the Court Record.

Present Max's Profile. Max's arrogance doesn't make him a criminal, but Gumshoe claims to have proof of Max's guilt: a Silk Hat, which will be added to the Court Record. Gumshoe says Max's signature emblems include a silk hat, a cloak, and white roses. He also says there is an "eyewitness".

 * Eyewitnesses: Gumshoe says he can't tell you, as it is the prosecution's trump card.

Gumshoe then tells you-you aren't allowed to speak to the eyewitness. Of course, that's not going to stop you, but you can't go there right now. Instead, move to the Circus Entrance.

Circus Entrance (2)
There, you will meet a stammering man. He introduces himself as the ventriloquist of the Berry Big Circus, Benjamin Woodman. Talk to Ben.

 * What happened: He doesn't really know about what happened.
 * Max Galactica: All Ben can say is that Max is "not very nice". He then mentions a pain in his head.
 * Ventriloquism: Not much information from Ben. He's trying to say something but his stuttering is making you nervous.

Time to see this "eyewitness". Move to Moe's Room via the Lodging House - Plaza.

Moe's Room
You are introduced to Moe the stoogey clown (real name, Lawrence Curls), who throws out some really stupid jokes (that Maya actually finds funny). Talk to Moe.

 * Berry Big Circus: Moe tells you a brief history of the circus and Russell Berry. Everyone seems to like Russell.
 * What happened: Moe says he was sleeping on the night of the murder, and that's when he "caught a peek" of it. Does that mean he witnessed the murder?
 * Russell Berry: Moe says Russell was always ahead of his time, always coming up with new elements for the show. Moe says everyone's acts seem to be getting stale - even he realizes himself that he is "a bit long in the tooth". Moe mostly blames it on Max, who called Moe "one of the funny ones". Moe says something about Max and the murder, but stops himself before he goes any further.
 * What you witnessed: Moe says the police told him not to share what he saw with others, but he does give you a few details. After Moe went to bed, he heard a large "THUMP". He looked outside his window and saw the crime scene, and "that magician". Can he be referring to Max?

Present Max's Profile. Moe seems to hate the guy. The morning before the crime, Max "clonked" Ben (the ventriloquist you met earlier) right in the head. Moe says you should check it out, as there's "Gotti" be something interesting there. He gives you the Circus Map, which will be added to the Court Record.

Move to the Big Top - Cafeteria, via the Big Top.

Cafeteria
You find the place in a mess, probably from last night. Examine the broken glass bottle in the middle of the floor. Remember what Moe said about something interesting? The Broken Bottle will be added to the Court Record.

You now have to speak to Max again, as you just might have enough clues to break his Psyche-Locks. Move to the Detention Center via the Circus Entrance.

Detention Center (2)
Talk to Max.

 * Max Galactica: Max says the other performers don't like him because they are jealous - all except for Regina, who he is planning to marry.
 * What happened: Max says after the meeting with Russell, Russell decided to go out to tend to some important matters. He said he'd be back in ten minutes, but never returned.

After talking, present Maya's Magatama.

Max's Psyche-Locks: Meeting With Russell
Talk to Max again:

 * Meeting with Russell: Max says he and Ben got into a fight in the cafeteria room over a certain person - Regina. Ben told Max that she was in love with him, pushing Max past breaking point. Russell called Max afterwards to his office, where Max realized it was his chance to ask Russell for his daughter's hand in marriage. Russell agreed, and now "(Max's) sweetie-pie is now (his) sweetie-pie". He just had to "shut him up".
 * "Shut him up": Max is referring to Trilo Quist, Ben's puppet. Without the two together, Trilo wouldn't say a word, so he hid the puppet in Russell's office.

Time to find Trilo and see what this puppet knows about the murder. Move to the Big Top - Ringmaster's Room - along the way, you won't see Ben and Regina at the Entrance and the Big Top, respectively.

Ringmaster's Room (2)
Examine the trophy case on the left side of the room. You will see trophies of different kinds. Russell seems multi-talented. You also see a puppet in here. It's the missing Trilo Quist, which will be added to the Court Record.

Move to the Big Top - Cafeteria.

Cafeteria (2)
You'll see Ben here. Talk to Ben.

 * What happened: Ben says he doesn't know a thing.
 * Berry Big Circus: Ben says he has been at the circus for four years. He doesn't really like Regina that much. If so, then why did he propose to her?

Present Trilo Quist to Ben. You decide to leave the cafeteria only to be stopped by someone. It's Ben, or rather Trilo being voiced by Ben... okay, just Trilo, who sounds quite rude.

Talk to, er, Trilo (He's the loudmouth rude puppet more specifically).

 * What happened: Trilo sounds quite disappointed with Russell. All he can say was "Gramps got clobbered over the head".
 * Berry Big Circus: Trilo doesn't really like the circus, but he is in love with Regina. He is even thinking of marrying her. Marriage!? Does that sound familiar?
 * Flying fraud: Trilo is accusing Max of murdering Russell. He says he and Ben were there when the murder occurred!
 * Marriage: Trilo says he wrote a love song to Regina. He doesn't sing the whole thing because it's private.

After talking, Ben and Trilo will leave. Trilo said they were there when the murder occurred. Does that mean they are witnesses!? Move to the Big Top.

Big Top (2)
Upon entering, a monkey pounces on you. The monkey runs off... with your Attorney's Badge! Regina then appears, and decides to help you out. She says the monkey's name is Money. Talk to Regina.

 * Money the Monkey: Regina says Money loves shiny things, and takes it back "home". She doesn't exactly know where, but she thinks Moe (the clown) might have an idea.
 * Ben & Trilo: Regina says Trilo is a smart and wonderful singer, and that he recently said he loved her. Regina doesn't seem to know Ben.
 * Proposal: Regina didn't know that both Max and Trilo had proposed. She wonders who she should go with. (A puppet or an actual man?)

After you're done, move to Moe's Room. You won't see Gumshoe at the Lodging House Plaza anymore.

Moe's Room (2)
Talk to Moe.

 * Regina: Moe says Regina was born and raised in the circus, and has spent all of her life there. Even today she doesn't know much, if anything, about the outside world (similar to Pearl). As a result, everything unusual she sees in the circus is normal to her.
 * Money the Monkey: He knows the owner of Money and offers to show you to his room. When given the choice, Go with Moe. You automatically move to Acro's Room.

Acro's Room
Moe says this room belongs to Acro, a trapeze artist. You see a pile of shiny stuff, probably where your badge is. Money the Monkey will be added to the Court Record.

Examine the shiny pile. You will find your Attorney's Badge, which is returned to the Court Record. You then spot a ring saying "From T to R". The Ring will be added to the Court Record.

Phoenix decides to conclude the day's investigation. He doesn't know what will happen tomorrow, but you do at least know that Moe and Trilo will be called as witnesses.

Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Justice For All/Episode 3: Turnabout Big Top/Part 2-1: Trial

Max seems very nervous, and wants milk to calm his nerves. He wonders if he should fly into the courtroom to wow the crowd. After telling him not to, Max asks you if you would do so. It's impossible (though you like the idea).

Trial begins
Von Karma says her loss in the previous case doesn't count, and is certain you will lose this time. She calls Gumshoe to the stand and has him describe the case.

Gumshoe's Testimony: Details of the Events
Gumshoe presents Russell Berry's Autopsy Report, which will be added to the Court Record.

Details of the Events: Cross-Examination
Press all of Gumshoe's statements:

 * First statement: There was a blizzard outside. It stopped some time before the murder. Something about this seems significant.
 * Second statement: Everyone at the circus was practicing: Regina, Moe, Ben & Trilo, etc. During the investigation, Gumshoe met Money the Monkey, who took his wristwatch.
 * Third statement: Everyone went about their business after practice, as normal. Gumshoe says that Max went to Russell's office to discuss his salary (though you already know this isn't the case).
 * Fourth statement: Gumshoe says there is a witness, but von Karma whips him before he can explain any further.
 * Fifth statement: Gumshoe says the box was heavier than it looked, and it was also locked. The Wooden Box will be added to the Court Record. You are given a choice of questions; ask About the contents. Gumshoe says it was locked, so they took it back to the station and cracked it open. Inside, they found a bottle filled with pepper. Pepper? What's the meaning of that? The Small Seasoning Bottle will be added to the Court Record.
 * Sixth statement: Gumshoe says the murder weapon was a blunt object. The weapon is still missing, and the police are searching for it.

After pressing all of the statements, von Karma calls another witness to the stand, Benjamin Woodman.

Ben (or Trilo depending on how you see the witness) testifies on what he saw. Since Ben is almost always in character, we'll assume that Trilo is testifying. Get ready for a ridiculous ventriloquist routine that you wouldn't see in a normal court!

Trilo's Testimony: What You Witnessed
Trilo recognized Max by his "SILK HAT! CLOAK! WHITE ROSES!" If Ben and Trilo "ditched" the clown, could Moe be the murderer? Von Karma reminds the court that a silk hat was found at the scene, so this could only point to Max being the culprit.

What You Witnessed: Cross-examination
Press on Trilo's fourth statement. Trilo is convinced he saw Max, and only Max. When given a choice, choose Ben only saw Max?. You suspect Trilo was waiting outside for someone else. When asked who, Present Russell Berry's profile. If Trilo saw Max, he should also have seen Russell, since both Russell and Max went to the office before the crime occurred. Von Karma, however, says that as you heard this from the defendant, its veracity is dubious. If Max said he was in the office at the time, then why did Trilo see him outside the tent before the murder occurred? Could Max be lying? This weakens your claim. You move on with the cross-examination.

Press on Trilo's fifth statement. Both Ben and Trilo were outside the tent, but for what reason? It was very cold outside. Phoenix suspects they could have been waiting for someone. When asked who, Present Regina Berry's profile. They were probably outside, waiting for Regina, and only Regina. In the event, they only saw Max. Furthermore, if they saw Max and only Max heading towards the crime scene, it would've been impossible for Russell to have been killed while they were there, because they never saw Russell!

At this point, Trilo admits that he was waiting for Regina. He wanted to propose to her. The puppet testifies about the proposal, much to the dismay of von Karma. The prosecutor's record is wasted and now she has to waste her time, listening to the puppet's love for Regina.

About the Proposal: Cross-examination
Press on Trilo's second statement. Trilo says that "something" is the engagement ring. Von Karma wants to move on, but Push on anyway. Trilo will revise his statement.

 * I planned on giving an engagement ring to Regina...

Ignore this statement and present the Ring on the third, fourth or fifth statement. Trilo instantly recognizes it. If Trilo says he has the ring in his pocket, then why do you have it now? Trilo admits that Money the Monkey stole it since he loves shiny things. Ben says Money stole it right after Max passed by. Ben chased after it, but Money got away.

What you just heard proves something... When asked what, choose Ben's testimony has a flaw. Trilo had said he was waiting at the crime scene for some time after Max passed by, but now he has said that he was actually chasing after Money. In that case, it's possible that someone else passed by while Trilo was absent.

You can choose Ben doesn't exercise enough but Maya will remark you to go back to playing video games with a penalty.

Trilo will testify once more about what he saw.

Trilo's Testimony: Witnessing Max
Trilo says he and Ben had been chasing Money for five minutes before heading back to where they had been waiting. It is possible that the victim went to the crime scene during these five minutes.

Witnessing Max: Cross-examination
Press on Trilo's fourth statement. He said "good evening" to Max? When given the choice of what is strange, choose Trilo's evening greeting. Trilo said something nice to the person he really hates. Why is that?

Press on Trilo's sixth statement. Trilo and a chorus (including Maya and the Judge) sing "SILK HAT! CLOAK! WHITE ROSES!"

Present the Broken Bottle on the fourth statement. When Max passed by, Trilo would have likely tried to start a fight. Earlier that day, both Trilo and Max had a fight over Regina, and Max "clonked" Ben on the head with the bottle. If that is true, then there was no way Trilo would just say "good evening" and let it slip.

When asked what Trilo really saw, say He saw a different person. When asked who, Present Russell Berry's profile. Trilo probably greeted this person, because he saw someone other than Max. If it was Max, Trilo wouldn't have been so pleasant at all!

This leaves one question: If someone, dressed as Max, passed by Ben and Trilo, then who was it? Von Karma says she has a new witness to call. The Judge calls for a recess.

Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Justice For All/Episode 3: Turnabout Big Top/Part 2-2: Trial

Max pleads that he was nowhere near the crime scene, and that he was at the ringmaster's office the whole time. He says he brought his stage clothes with him when he went to talk with Russell. Russell went outside, wearing Max's outfit, to do something. He looked a lot like Max. When the crime scene was investigated, only his silk hat was found, but where were his cloak and roses? This is a deep mystery indeed.

Trial continues
Moe the Clown is called to the stand. He makes a couple of jokes (that no one laughs at) before testifying about what he saw.

Moe's Testimony: What You Witnessed
What's this?! Did Moe just talk about his own problem? Let's try this again. Unfortunately for Gumshoe, Von Karma made a deal that the detective will listen to all of Moe's jokes after the court proceedings!

Moe's Testimony: What You Witnessed (for real this time)
The Judge warns you if you press Moe the wrong way (yes, press!) you will get penalized! Quite unfair, don't you think?

To help newcomers which statements to avoid: Don't agree to first statement on his eight o'clock joke and don't press statement 2. Pressing statement 6 should also be avoided, at least until you get more information. Especially choosing Of course I don't that involves a penalty.

What You Witnessed: Cross-examination
Press on Moe's third statement. Then, Keep pressing. Yesterday, Moe told you he heard a large "THUMP" outside. Moe says he forgot to mention it and revises his testimony.

 * I heard a huge noise outside the window, and that's what made me take a look outside.

Press on that statement. Moe says it sounded like someone getting hit... hard.

Press statement six. Moe says he didn't see a murder weapon. Then what did he see? You ask him if he really did see the crime at all. Von Karma tells you if you can't answer, you will get an even larger penalty than usual - half of your health bar! When asked to accept the challenge, say "Of course I do!" Moe says he saw the crime scene AFTER Max "clonked" Russell dead, so he did not see the crime occurring!

Moe admits von Karma made him lie. However, he says he did see the silhouette. The Judge has Moe testify about the silhouette.

The Silhouette: Cross-examination
Present the Max G. Promo Poster on the second or third statement. Silk hat and a black cloak? What about the white roses? Moe says there weren't any roses there! Von Karma says it was too dark, but you say the roses were white. Von Karma then states that the roses fell off, but you say the police would've found them.

Recall Trilo's testimony. He said he saw all three symbols, but Moe now says he only saw two.

The Judge decides to hear another testimony from Moe.

Moe's Testimony: The Silhouette, Part 2
The judge warns you that if you make even one mistake, he will end the trial and declare his verdict!

For newcomers, it will be ideal not to press any statements! The reason is simply Franziska whips you and half your health bar drops! So don't bother with it because all statements act the same way.

The Silhouette, Part 2: Cross-examination
Present the Silk Hat on the fourth statement. The silk hat was found at the crime scene, but Moe says Max was wearing it the whole time. Moe insists that he saw Max wearing it the whole time.

Phoenix asks Moe how the murderer left the crime scene. Moe says he just turned and walked away. The Judge wants you to show evidence to counter this claim. Present the Crime Photo. You can see the victim's footprints, but where are the murderer's?

Moe decides to testify once more and promises to tell the truth this time. Von Karma made him hide the truth, but no more lies this time. She tells the Judge that he will have the same opinion as her: "It's not funny".

Moe's Testimony: The Truth
The murderer flew!? The Judge asks what you think of the testimony. Say whatever you want, as Franziska will call you a fool anyway.

The Judge wants to know how Max flew. He decides to adjourn court for today.

Trial ends
Max says he can't really fly; he just uses invisible strings that carry him through the air. You'll just have to find the real flying criminal and shoot him down (not literally, of course).

Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Justice For All/Episode 3: Turnabout Big Top/Part 3: Investigation

You start back at the Wright & Co. Law Offices. Talk to Maya if you want; otherwise, Move to the Detention Center.

Detention Center
Max says some producers talked him into making a TV special that involves him making a prison escape, but if you don't get him off the hook for real before the show airs, he's done for. Talk to Max:

 * Night of the Murder: Max insists that he was at the ringmaster's office at the time of the murder.
 * Today's Trial: Maya tells Max he should be more respectful towards the other circus members, but Max says they lack ambition, and he can't stand it. Max says he won an International Grand Prix.
 * Grand Prix: Max shows you a picture of himself at the Grand Prix. He says he could have died a happy man at that moment, and thinks all of the other performers should experience that feeling. He gives you the Grand Prix Photo, which is added to the Court Record. He wants you to show it to all the other members of the circus which will help you out.

Move to the Circus Entrance.

Circus Entrance
You'll see Ben and Trilo here, who are practicing a new routine where they are singing in turns. Maya gives the ring back to Trilo. Talk to Ben/Trilo:

 * Today's trial: Maya asks the two what they saw. Trilo says he thought it was Russell at first, but he didn't get a reply when he said hello, and he noticed the three symbols. If not for this, they would've thought it was Russell.
 * Marriage: Maya wonders why Ben and Trilo didn't just look inside the tent for Regina. Trilo says it would have been a pain to wait outside. That's why he waited: to make sure his body was aching for her.
 * Ventriloquism: Trilo says he and Ben are practicing for the Grand Prix. He looks very eager to win.

Move to the Lodging House - Plaza.

Plaza
You run into an exhausted Gumshoe who tells you von Karma is here and is currently investigating in Acro's room. If what Moe says is true, then the murderer could have flown past Acro's window. Also because of yesterday's trial, she made Gumshoe listen to all of Moe's jokes because of the deal about going through the testimony in court.

Move to the Big Top - Cafeteria.

Cafeteria
You see Moe there. After being tormented with another joke, Present the Grand Prix Photo. Moe says Max has shown everyone the photo. Not only that, but he makes everyone bow down to his "enormous" bust every day, and worship his greatness.

Talk to Moe:

 * Today's trial: Moe doesn't look like he enjoyed the trial, as he feels he had told a "great" joke.
 * What you witnessed: Moe says he saw what he saw. He swears he saw Max's face. You don't see a Psyche-Lock, so he must be telling the truth.
 * Max's Bust: Moe says it should be on the table in this room, but it was stolen five days ago. You see the picture of the bust on the bulletin board. The Max G. Bust will be added to the Court Record. Moe says that something has "changed".
 * What changed: Moe says that earlier on the day of the crime, a piece of paper was posted on the noticeboard. He doesn't know who it's from, who posted it, or what it says, as someone tore off half of the paper. You do see the first part of the paper saying "to the murderer". Murderer!? It sounds important! The Note will be added to the Court Record.

You may want to talk to Max about this. Move to the Detention Center.

Detention Center (2)
Present the Note to Max. He says he has seen it before. On the morning before the murder, Russell saw the note posted on the wall. After reading it, he became enraged, tore it off the board, and stuffed it in his tailcoat pocket. Max wants you to find the letter and read it yourself.

The Ringmaster put it in his tailcoat pocket, huh?

Max also wants you to talk to Regina about that note.

Move to the Big Top - Ringmaster's Room.

Ringmaster's Room
Examine the piece of paper in the tailcoat's pocket. You'll find it on the black coat, next to the dresser more specifically on the right side, with the paper sticking out of it's pocket. It's the second half of the note! In its entirety, it reads: "To The Murderer!

 * I have conclusive evidence of what took place.

 * Meet at 10:00 PM tonight at the lodging house plaza."

10:00 PM!? That's when the murder took place! The Note will be updated in the Court Record.

Move to the Lodging House - Plaza.

Plaza (2)
Gumshoe says he has just finished with the investigation in Acro's room. You then hear beeping noises. Gumshoe says the noise indicates that von Karma is near and runs off. Von Karma herself will encounter you afterwards. Talk to von Karma:

 * Tomorrow's trial: von Karma says she has "conclusive evidence" and a "conclusive witness". It is the acrobat, who claims he saw the murderer fly past his window.
 * "Revenge": von Karma says she came here for revenge, not for her father, but for Miles Edgeworth. Wait, Edgeworth!?
 * Miles Edgeworth: She is here for Edgeworth, because he is like a "little brother" to her. She says that you are the reason that he's gone.
 * Edgeworth's Death: A few months since the case that occurred a year ago, Edgeworth hasn't set foot in court. One day he "vanished", leaving behind a note saying "Prosecutor Miles Edgeworth chooses death". Death!? Does that mean he is dead? von Karma denies it, believing he is still alive somewhere. She says the note means that you killed the "Prosecutor" inside Edgeworth.

Von Karma leaves the premise and Maya apologizes for bringing his name up.

You decide to talk to the performer. Move to Acro's Room.

Acro's Room
You will meet Acro, who was expecting you. His real name is Ken Dingling. Talk to Acro:

 * Berry Big Circus: When he was a kid, Acro's parents abandoned him, and Russell adopted him. He took very good care of him. So good, in fact, that Acro decided to repay him by joining the circus. Acro feels that Russell has spoiled Regina. You detect a hint of a grudge against her.
 * Wheel Chair: You ask why Acro is in a wheel-chair. Acro says he was injured during practice. You then see 3 Psyche-Locks. Did something else happen? Acro says he damaged his nerves six months ago. What happened?
 * What happened: Acro wasn't here yesterday because he was in the hospital. He told the police what he saw, but until today, he was convinced that it was just a dream. What did he see?
 * What you witnessed: On the night of the murder. Acro says he was sleeping when he heard a huge noise. He looked out his window and saw Max flying. That's the same statement as Moe!

Move to the Big Top.

Big Top
You are attacked by Regent the Tiger again, only to be saved by Regina once more. She was trying to teach Money the Monkey a lesson. Talk to Regina:

 * Russell Berry: After her father, Russell killed Léon the Lion, he told her this phrase she believed in ever since: "When someone dies, they just become a star in the heavens." So if anyone passes away, the stars in the sky like her father looks down on her, watching over her.
 * Money the Monkey: Regina says Money stole her stage costume. She asks you if you would get it back for her. You are given a choice. It doesn't matter what you choose, since they all give the same response.

Present the Note. Regina says she has seen the note and that it was in her pocket on the morning of the murder. She says that since she isn't a murderer, she thought it was meant for someone else. So she posted it on the bulletin board on the morning of the murder. The Note will be updated in the Court Record.

Present the Small Seasoning Bottle. Regina says she saw it in the cafeteria. Also, she's not a fan of the pepper.

Time to look for the stage costume.

Move to Moe's Room via Lodging House Plaza.

Moe's Room
You will find Money in there. You are given a choice. It doesn't matter what you choose, as he will give you the Stage Costume anyway, which will be added to the Court Record.

Now that you've retrieved the costume, move back to the Big Top.

Big Top (2)
Present Regina's Stage Costume. Regina will say the costume actually belonged to Léon the Lion. Talk about Léon. Léon's practice went awry and he bit someone. Because of this, Russell was enraged, and had the lion put down. Léon will be added to the Court Record.

Now move to the Cafeteria.

Cafeteria (2)
It looks like Moe is still hanging around here. Talk to Moe.

 * Berry Big Circus: Since Russell's death, Moe has been thinking about trying to fill the Ringmaster's shoes. Moe wants to get over a tragedy. Get over what?
 * "Get over it?: You ask Moe about the tragedy, but 2 Psyche-Locks appear, concerning an event from "six months ago".

Fortunately, you have the right items. Present Maya's Magatama.

Moe's Psyche-Locks: Get Over It!
Talk to Moe again.

 * "Get over it"?: Moe reveals to you that during stage practice, Léon bit someone hard. His name is Bat, Acro's brother, and trapeze partner. He isn't dead but is in a coma.
 * Acro's brother: Acro's younger brother is Sean Dingling but everyone in the circus calls him Bat. Moe tells you that Bat was in love with Regina. To impress her, Bat decided to do something daring during practice: he put his head inside Léon's mouth. When he did, however, Léon bit down with a weird look on his face - almost as if he was smiling. Moe mentions that after Russell put the deceased lion down, they decide that if they had told the police, they would be shut down because of that accident. Bat's Profile is added to the Court Record.

After talking, Moe will add pepper to his burgers. Maya sneezes as a result. Moe tells you that Bat always loved teasing Regina with pepper.

Move to Acro's Room.

Acro's Room (2)
You see Acro there. Present Maya's Magatama.

Acro's Psyche-Locks: About the Wheelchair
Talk to Acro again:

 * Wheelchair: Acro will confess that Léon broke his legs six months ago. Bat wanted to take Regina out, so he dared to put his head inside the lion's mouth to impress her. He did so, but was bitten, and ended up comatose. Ever since then, Acro visits the hospital now and then, waiting for Bat's eyes to reopen.
 * Regina and Bat: Regina and Bat were great friends. On the day of the incident, Regina gave Bat a present: a scarf. It looks like it is covered in blood. Acro says Léon was smiling when he attacked. It looks like Moe was right.

It looks like you should keep the seemingly vital scarf, but von Karma suddenly appears and, having heard every word, takes it away from you. She also mentions that Acro will be on the witness stand tomorrow.

This concludes today's investigation. Do you think you have a chance against von Karma, now that she's taken an important-looking piece of evidence from you?

Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Justice For All/Episode 3: Turnabout Big Top/Part 4-1: Trial

You believe that Acro is likely to be the real murderer, but it's going to be very tough to prove it. Just pressing Acro will do no good; you'll need to present substantial evidence. Otherwise, it will mean certain doom for Max. Moe warns that Acro will "literally put his life on the line". Also, Regina will come to watch in the courtroom. Moe's reason is to show her that her father didn't "fly away to the stars" when he died.

Trial begins
Von Karma will call Acro to the stand as predicted. She tells Acro to testify about what he saw at the scene of the crime.

What You Witnessed: Cross-examination
Press on Acro's fourth statement. Acro recognized Max, as he left the crime scene, by his silk hat and cloak, but not his white roses, since he only saw Max's back. When given a choice to move on or not, choose There is a contradiction, then present the Silk Hat to support your claim. The hat was found at the crime scene, so how did Max leave the scene while still wearing it?

The Judge asks you why Acro would lie to the court. Choose Acro is the real culprit. Von Karma and Acro disagree, as Acro is wheelchair-bound. He could not have done it in his condition. Von Karma even has a doctor's note saying Acro is unable to stand up on his own.

Von Karma now suspects you will try to claim that Acro had an accomplice. When given a choice, choose Of course he didn't. Acro committed the murder all by himself. When you are asked where he committed the crime, on the circus map, Present Acro's Room (3F). Since Acro is unable to leave his room, it's the only place he could have been when he committed the crime.

The court now asks you if you have evidence to support your claim. Choose Present evidence, then Present the Max G. Bust. The bust is very large - life-sized, in fact. It is heavy enough to kill someone if they were hit on the head by it - if it was dropped from a third-floor window, perhaps? It may look heavy, but Acro is strong enough to be able to lift it.

Your claim seems strong, and even leaves Acro at a loss for words. It looks like you are getting closer to the truth, but von Karma argues that Acro's physical state is the key to this case. Acro will now testify about his condition.

Acro's Testimony: Acro's Physical State
This testimony looks watertight. Even the Judge doesn't have any doubts. You move on with the cross-examination anyway.

Acro's Physical State: Cross-examination
Present the Wooden Box or the Crime Photo on either statement five or six. Acro would have known exactly where Russell's head would be, because of the wooden box. You show the crime photo to the court - Russell looks like he was hunched over the box. Who put the box there? Ben/Trilo saw the Ringmaster (wearing Max's cloak and hat) without the box, so the box must have been placed before the murder.

Why was Russell squatting over the box in the first place? Probably because he was trying to lift it. It's a heavy box, so you would need to squat down to lift it - with your head directly over the box. If the bust was dropped then, it would hit the victim's head dead-on!

The Judge will, as usual, ask who actually placed the box at the crime scene. You reply that it was Acro. You add that he must have tied the box to a rope, and then lowered it down to the crime scene.

Von Karma will then argue that the Ringmaster's head could have been someplace else as he was lifting the box. You reply that that would be impossible. When asked to explain why, it doesn't matter but the correct answer is The weight of the box. The box is quite heavy, but has handles on either side for lifting - so, no matter what, your head would be in the same place as you lifted it.

Acro asks if you remember the original location of the bust. Answer I remember (or I forget for a humorous response and no penalty). The bust was on a small table in the cafeteria, so how did Acro manage to get the bust from the cafeteria to his room? Present Money the Monkey. Money loves shiny things, and Max's bust has shiny material on it. Usually, when Money sees something shiny, he takes it to Acro's room. Acro looked through Money's collection for something to use as a murder weapon, and came across the bust, which was more than heavy enough.

This makes Acro the most likely culprit, but von Karma isn't giving in yet. She reminds you that the murderer was clearly seen at the crime scene. Von Karma asks you who (or what) Moe really saw. Present the Max G. Bust. Moe claims to have seen Max's silhouette, but he didn't clearly see Max himself. He probably didn't even see a human being.

Von Karma argues that the silhouette was wearing a cloak, but you say that the cloak could have become attached to the bust somehow. When asked who put the cloak on the bust, Present Russell Berry's Profile. You then explain what happened:

On the night of the murder, Acro lowered the wooden box to the ground with a rope, and then put the rope on the bust. Russell, who had been meeting Max in his office, left for the plaza, while wearing Max's hat and cloak. As he went, he passed Ben and Trilo. He came to the box, and tried to pick it up. At this point, Acro dropped the bust, which struck the Ringmaster on his head, killing him. When the bust struck Russell, the cloak flew off him, and got snagged on the bust. Moe heard the impact, and looked out - this was when he saw the silhouette of "Max". Acro pulled up the bust, unaware that Moe was watching "Max" fly away from the crime scene.

It looks like you have proven the murder method, but von Karma wants proof. Present the Max G. Promo Poster or the Silk Hat. Recall Moe's testimony yesterday. He said he saw the silk hat on the cloak. If that's true, and if the silk hat was found at the crime scene, then the silk hat Moe saw was actually the bust. And as for the white roses that Ben and Trilo saw and Moe didn't, when the cloak was snagged on the bust, the roses disappeared from Moe's view because it was on the front of the cloak. Moe only saw the back.

Von Karma is still not giving up, and asks for one more thing: a motive. Why would Acro kill the Ringmaster, the man Acro loved very much? The Judge decides to call a recess.

Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Justice For All/Episode 3: Turnabout Big Top/Part 4-2: Trial

You, Maya and Max, were talking about the outcome of the court drama when Gumshoe interrupts your conversation. Gumshoe secretly brings you back the Scarf, which will be added to the Court Record. Now you have more ammo.

He also says this is going "according to plan". Most importantly, Gumshoe tells you from the prosecutor "Judgment comes at the very last instant." As a present, Gumshoe delivered milk for Max to drink. Who's the prosecutor that delivered that message?

If you see the scarf's description, you'll see it has pepper all over it. This is what you need for this case. You'll see why.

Trial continues
Von Karma has Acro testify about his relationship to the Ringmaster.

Acro's Testimony: About the Ringmaster
There is nothing you can object to here, in fact, there is absolutely no need for a cross-examination at all. When asked to continue, answer No need to question him now. However, you can also choose Of course I'll cross-examine, but in this case, you just need to press every statement until the judge calls an end to the cross-examination. The Judge will then ask you to prove Acro's motive. Say I can't provide one. If Acro killed the Ringmaster without a motive, he could be aiming for someone else. When asked who, Present Regina Berry's Profile.

Von Karma wants proof of your claim. Present the Note. Earlier on the day of the murder, you found out that Acro put the note in Regina's pocket. Regina didn't think it was for her, so she put it on the bulletin board. The Ringmaster, Regina's father, saw the note and did what it said, to come to the plaza at 10:00 PM. Once the Ringmaster reached there, his fate was sealed.

Recall Acro's earlier testimony. He said it would be impossible to look down the window, because of the weight of the bust. If that is true, he wouldn't have the strength to look down his window to see that it was the Ringmaster at the box, not Regina, yet he took his chances anyway. So, Acro didn't know at the time that he actually killed Regina's father, instead of Regina Berry herself!

Solving the Case
The Judge will ask if you know something about this note. Say I know all about it or not for a humorous response with no penalty. Von Karma wants proof. Present the Small Seasoning Bottle. The decisive evidence mentioned in the note was found inside the wooden box. This is the evidence Acro tried to show to Regina.

Von Karma will now ask you who Regina "murdered". Present Bat's Profile. Though he isn't technically dead, he's been in a coma for six months now. Von Karma will then mention Bat was bitten by a lion (Léon), however, the lion was tamed and Regina wouldn't train Léon to kill people, so it was only an accident. Maya will ask you if you agree if it is an accident. Say it was more than that or not for a humorous response with no penalty. When asked how, Present the Scarf.

Acro will reveal that the scarf belonged to Bat. He received it as a present from Regina. Not only is the whole thing covered in blood, but Regina put lots of pepper on it. The courtroom is suddenly silent upon hearing your claim. Von Karma reminds you that Léon bit Bat and it has no relation to the crime. Léon looked like he was smiling. It's impossible, as you'll explain that the lion was actually sneezing from all of the pepper Regina put on the scarf. Bat lost consciousness afterward and Acro, being Bat's brother, was infuriated over Léon's owner and the giver of Bat's present (Regina) and sought out to kill her!

You have now proven Acro's motive for the "attempted" murder, but Acro is still not giving up. You need one more thing to prove: evidence. Is there any proof that Acro dropped the bust on the Ringmaster's head? Furthermore, where is the bust itself? When given the option, choose see how things work out first, as von Karma already checked Acro's room and the murder weapon isn't there.

It looks like you have nothing to prove. The Judge is now ready to end the cross-examination. Just then, a "Hold it!". It's Maya, who pleads for more time. After some encouragement from her, you are asked to say where the bust is now. When given the choice, tell them that it's somewhere in this courtroom. Then choose that the weapon is in the witness' stand. Von Karma searched in Acro's room, and Acro couldn't leave with the bust, so when von Karma searched, Acro had no choice but to put it under his wheelchair, to ensure von Karma didn't find it.

Warning: About this last part about "where the bust" is, there's a major penalty should you choose the wrong answer. If you chose the circus, Franziska will point out to you that they already searched those rooms. Inside the courtroom, if you choose the Prosecutor's Bench you'll be whipped by Franziska until you are literally knocked out and suffer amnesia again, forgetting who Maya is. But the Judge's Bench? You get twice the penalty! If you are playing on the HD iOS release, you will receive the Wrath of a Judge achievement as a consolation prize. Game Over? So follow what's close above to finish this case once and for all!

The truth revealed!
Acro finally gives up and reveals the bust from his wheelchair. He also explains what happened to the cloak, he burnt it into ashes and threw it away, as soon as he saw von Karma send a search party. He also confesses that he inadvertently killed the Ringmaster.

Acro's last words on the stand are rather sad. Bat only wanted Regina to like him, so he sprayed pepper on her. Regina sneezed a lot, and decided to get Bat back, so she picked up a scarf and sprayed pepper all over it. Since Bat's hospitalization, Regina thought Bat to be dead, but is happy, as she believes the myth that people become stars when they die. Her happiness annoyed and eventually angered Acro, who eventually snapped and did what you have proven.

A very sad story indeed, but here is something that would cheer you up: Maximillion Galactica is found...

What REALLY happened
It was about six months ago. Bat and some other members of the circus were in love with Regina Berry, the animal tamer of the famous Berry Big Circus. Bat always teased Regina by spraying pepper on her. Regina usually sneezed all day and was laughed at. Regina one day decided to get her revenge.

Regina borrowed a scarf and sprayed pepper all over it. She then gave it to Bat as a present, so he could sneeze all day with it. What started as a prank eventually became a tragedy. After given the present, Bat one day during practice decided to impress Regina, and put his head inside Léon the lion, one of Regina's "friends". The lion was tamed so nothing could go wrong, right?

Wrong! Once Bat put his head in Léon's mouth, the pepper from the scarf reached Léon's nose, causing him to sneeze, biting Bat severely, and knocking him unconscious. Acro, Bat's brother, witnessed the incident and fought Léon for his brother's life. Both of his legs were broken during the fight.

Later, Russell Berry, the Ringmaster of the Berry Big Circus and father of Regina, became angry and called Léon outside the circus tent, where he fired his rifle at Léon, killing him. The Ringmaster afterward falsely informed Regina that when people die, they become one of the stars in the sky and will be watching from up there. Regina believed her father and, as a result, took the death of Léon well.

Acro and Bat were forced to go to the hospital. Acro's injury was so severe that he was forced to use a wheelchair. Bat was in a coma and still is to this day. Regina thought Bat was dead, but wasn't worried, in fact, she was as happy and innocent as ever, which angered Acro more and more, as his brother's life was in jeopardy. Six months after the incident, Acro finally snapped and decided to kill her. On December 27, Acro wrote an anonymous letter intended for Regina, calling her a murderer and telling her to come to the plaza at 10:00 PM. He put the letter in Regina's pocket as she took him to the cafeteria, where Maximillion Galactica and Benjamin Woodman/Trilo Quist were fighting over Regina. Max snapped and whacked Ben's head with a juice bottle. Regina eventually noticed the letter and thought it was intended for someone else, so she put it on the bulletin board. The Ringmaster eventually noticed and read the letter and tore it down and put it in his pocket, infuriated.

At night, the Ringmaster, after practice, called Max to his office for what he did to Ben. Meanwhile, Acro prepared for the crime. He looked at the shiny pile Money the Monkey made (Money usually takes shiny stuff to his room) for a weapon and chose Max's bust, which he won at a Grand Prix recently. He tied it over a wooden box, which was where Acro's target would be and waited for the moment.

The Ringmaster told Max to stay in his office and decided to travel to the plaza undercover. He took Max's costume, consisting of a silk hat, cloak, and white roses, and used it to disguise himself. Along his way to the plaza, he was noticed by Ben and Trilo, who were waiting outside for Regina, to propose marriage to her. (The ring they were holding was stolen by Money)

The Ringmaster eventually made it to the box and opened it up to find the pepper seasoning bottle, which Regina used for the prank that caused all of this. The Ringmaster tried to pick it up, putting his head over the box. Acro heard what he was anticipating, but he couldn't see who was down there, as looking down his third story window may have risked falling with the bust. Acro took his chance and released the bust, which fell on the Ringmaster's head, snapping his vertebrae, and killing him instantly.

The force of the impact caused the cloak the Ringmaster was wearing to snag on the bust. The noise from the impact woke Moe the Clown, who saw a silhouette looking like Max. Acro started pulling the bust up, unaware that Moe was watching. Moe saw the silhouette rise from the ground and thought he saw Max flying from the crime scene. He never saw the white roses, because the roses were on the front of the cloak, Moe only saw the back.

The police then arrived and took Max away, since Ben & Trilo and Moe said that they saw him at the scene.

Acro tried to hide the evidence from investigators by burning the cloak into ashes and hiding the bust under his wheelchair.

Turnabout Big Top: Ending
Regina is bawling after what she had just heard from the trial. She wants to know if Acro is still plotting revenge on her. Say I don't think so. Regina wants proof. Present Bat's Profile. Bat is still alive, and Acro didn't want to get caught, because he wanted to see Bat open his eyes again. Regina now promises to stay on Bat's side and wait until the very day he opens his eyes again.

Since the Ringmaster is gone, Moe decides to take the Ringmaster's place and vows to make the Big Berry Circus the best circus anyone has ever seen. Max agrees and decides to join and convinces Regina to come along.

We then hear an anonymous phone conversation between a man and Gumshoe. Apparently, the man knew about what transpired recently. The man plans on returning to where Phoenix lives. Gumshoe hangs up as he waits for an all too familiar face to return to his office. Expect to see Miles Edgeworth in the next and final case of the game.

Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Justice For All/Episode 4: Farewell, My Turnabout

The Grand Prix event from the earlier episode makes a comeback, as a series of funny-looking characters slug it out to win the honor of "Hero of Heroes". The Steel Samurai theme plays, but an improved version of him, namely, the Nickel Samurai, takes the throne while beating his nearest rival, the Jammin' Ninja.

Case Information

 * Time of Crime: March 20th, 8:00 PM
 * Location: Gatewater Hotel
 * Defendant: Matt Engarde
 * Victim: Juan Corrida
 * Cause of death: Strangling
 * Murder weapon: Scarf
 * Defense Attorney: Phoenix Wright
 * Prosecution Lawyer: Miles Edgeworth

Defense Attorney
Phoenix Wright A defense attorney. Phoenix is forced to take this case. You'll see why later.

Defendant
Matt Engarde A young man known as the Nickel Samurai. He works at Global Studios. He looks very trusting and contacts his managers all of the time.

Victim
Juan Corrida Engarde's arch-rival, who plays as the Jammin' Ninja at Worldwide Studios. He really loves bears and has a collection of every kind.

Prosecution Lawyer
Miles Edgeworth Miles Edgeworth is thought to be dead since he left after few months since a case that he is a defendant of. Now he is back and different from before, well, slightly. The prosecution stand was meant for von Karma. Why didn't she take it?

Witnesses
Wendy Oldbag A grouchy old woman you met on your case with Will Powers. Oldbag once worked as the security lady from Global Studios. Now she works as a security lady at the Gatewater Hotel. Adrian Andrews A rather lovely manager of Engarde. On the outside, she looks very strong and seems to live on her own. Not so much on the inside... She was the first to discover Corrida's body. Will Powers Engarde isn't the first Samurai to be your client. Powers once worked with Global Studios as the Steel Samurai, until after a case you took last year.

Other characters
Maya Fey A young spirit medium in training, and your assistant. She is a big fan of the Nickel Samurai. She is the reason you took this case, but it isn't what you think if you know her well. Pearl Fey Maya's younger cousin and a friend of Phoenix. Pearl is quite new to the world outside her village, but she is learning. She cares for Maya's safety. Mia Fey Phoenix's deceased chief and mentor and Maya's big sister, who, thanks to the Kurain Channeling Technique that Maya and Pearl hold, can still aid you despite death. Franziska von Karma Franziska is the daughter of the feared Manfred von Karma. Like her father, she aims for one thing in her family's life, perfection. Von Karma had a perfect winning record, until you came along. She was originally the prosecutor for this case, but why is she replaced? Dick Gumshoe Gumshoe is absent-minded detective and can be short tempered at times. Mostly he is a friendly and helpful character. He is afraid of Von Karma, who can track him down with a radar. He was well aware that Edgeworth is still alive. Lotta Hart Lotta dreams to be a photographic journalist. She was at the Gatewater Hotel at the time of the crime. Shelly de Killer A professional assassin who leaves his signature card behind to indicate he was here. He trusts anyone who trusts him. Celeste Inpax A former manager who committed suicide 2 years ago. Director Hotti A nutty and perverted man who claims to be a doctor at the Hotti clinic. John Doe A man who claims to be Engarde's Butler.

Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Justice For All/Episode 4: Farewell, My Turnabout/Part 1-1: Investigation

If you played the first game, you should be familiar with the Gatewater Hotel and Will Powers. Powers is the one that invited you over to the ceremony. In the conversation, you will hear that the Jammin' Ninja didn't bring his guitar, which is strange for Maya. Also, Pearl has tagged along with you and Maya to join in for the ceremony. You are then reminded about a press conference where the Nickel Samurai is going to confess something. Confess what?

Talk to Powers if you want to know more about him, the Nickel Samurai, and The Jammin' Ninja:

 * Will Powers: Powers used to work at Global Studios, one time he was framed for murder. Thankfully, you took this case (against your will) and cleared his name. Now, as funny as it sounds, he's wearing a bunny costume and doing a kid's exercise program.

 * The Nickel Samurai: The actor for the Nickel Samurai is named Matt Engarde, who is very popular according to Maya.

 * Jammin' Ninja: The Jammin' Ninja works at another studios. His name is Juan Corrida by the way. Apparently, he and Engarde don't get along very well.

It should take time before the show starts. Move to the Hallway.

Hallway
Examine everything if you want to pass time, otherwise Move back to the Viola Hall.

If you're not sure what the hallway looks like (since there's no picture), there's walls of flowers on the left, toilets near the end with the sign on the top, target style board with flowers on it and a teddy bear near the bottom left of the picture.

Viola Hall
After hearing you will be attending the press conference, Powers will give you the Press Conference Ticket, which will be added to the Court Record.

Now, Move to the Hotel Lobby.

Hotel Lobby
Once you arrive, you will hear an announcement from the PA, which will tell you that the show is canceled due to unforeseen circumstances. They also have a request from the police to stay where you are. The police!? You are then encountered by a familiar voice. Those who remember the case with Powers may also recognize the grouchy Wendy Oldbag, who claims to be security here. (Then why is she wearing an astronaut suit? And a ray gun? Just hope she acts her age). Talk to Oldbag and if you remember the case, she's an inane chatterbox.

 * Wendy Oldbag: Oldbag worked with Global Studios until she was fired after "that" incident. She now works as a security personnel.

 * What happened?: Oldbag doesn't have all of the details, but another one of those "incidents" has occurred. A murder? Maya decides to check what happened. You agree to do so, unwillingly of course.

Move to the Viola Hall.

Viola Hall (2)
A bellboy borrows Maya for a moment saying someone is asking for her on the phone. Maya will leave the party for now.

Move to the Hallway.

Hallway (2)
It's Lotta Hart and Gumshoe! Their argument reveals a murder just took place! Lotta will leave. Talk to Gumshoe.

 * What happened: Pearl wonders if the Nickel Samurai was murdered. Gumshoe reveals that the Nickel Samurai actually got arrested! It was The Jammin' Ninja who was killed.

 * Lotta Hart: Gumshoe will say that Lotta was here when the murder was committed, and is now eager for a real "scoop". This comment will prove important later.

 * The victim: The name of the victim is Juan Corrida, the actor of the Jammin' Ninja. He and Engarde had been hogging the spotlight for years. Now that Corrida is gone, would Engarde hold the spotlight? Gumshoe doesn't think so.

Present Matt Engarde's Profile to Gumshoe. You will learn he had just been arrested for murder. Arrested!?

 * Arrested? Gumshoe says he can't bring out the details now. Maya's a big fan of Engarde's, so you know she's going to want to take the case as soon as she hears about this.

Move to the Hotel Lobby.

Hotel Lobby (2)
You will see Powers. It looks like he is holding a transceiver. Powers says a bellboy handed it to him recently. Powers gives you the Radio Transceiver, which will be added to the Court Record. Why did the bellboy want Powers to give it to you? Talk to Powers:

 * Matt and Juan: Powers says the two are nasty rivals. They would butt heads over stardom.

 * Press conference: Engarde planned to wear the Nickel Samurai costume at the press conference. But why?

Pearl then asks a question, where's Maya? She's been gone for a long time for answering a phone call. Just then, the transceiver beeps. You answer it. A mysterious voice brings some bad news to you: Maya has been kidnapped! The voice is the kidnapper and is holding her life for ransom! The kidnapper wants you to take Engarde's case. He wants a complete acquittal for Engarde, because he says Engarde didn't kill Corrida, because he was set up by a smarter person.

The kidnapper brings you a tougher challenge, to get the not guilty verdict in one day! The kidnapper hangs up, introducing himself as "De Killer".

You can't get the police involved. Pearl suggests you talk to "Mr. Scruffy" detective. Will Powers would look after Pearl while you automatically go to the Hallway and explain to Gumshoe for a shocking reaction.

Hallway (3)
You tell Gumshoe about the ransom. Gumshoe thinks if De Killer is holding Maya for Engarde's complete acquittal, then he must be working for Engarde, and Engarde must be the real murderer. The police found so much evidence, they felt like something is wrong. Almost as if someone is setting Engarde up for the murder.

???
The game leaves Phoenix's POV and switches to Maya's. You wake up inside some sort of wine cellar. You are then encountered by the kidnapper, who looks quite familiar. The man introduces himself as De Killer, who assures you he isn't planning to kill you... yet. He then calls Phoenix leading to a call you heard earlier.

Wright & Co. Law Offices
The game returns to Phoenix's POV. A day has passed. Pearl will accompany you for now. Talk to Pearl:

What to do? You have no choice but to head to the Detention Center. Pearl is worried that Matt might be the killer but you tell her that it's too early to jump to conclusions.

Maya's situation: Pearl has no family. Her father left and her mother is in Detention Center because of the incident involving a broken Sacred Urn. Maya is like her sister and that's all she has left in the world.

Move to the Detention Center.

Detention Center
You will meet Matt Engarde himself after some misunderstandings. He likes to "talk" to his "phone" on his wristwatch from time to time (you'll see the antenna stick out of his device on his watch). Also, he likes to use the word "dude". Talk to Engarde.

 * Matt Engarde: Engarde doesn't answer directly and says he is writing an autobiography. His publisher tells him not to say anything personal.

 * What happened: Again, Engarde doesn't answer directly. He does, however, claim innocence.

He isn't talking. Present the Press Conference Ticket. He says he knows nothing about it. Huh?

Present the Radio Transceiver to Engarde. After hearing about the ransom, Engarde will accept you as his lawyer, and will help you out.

Talk to Engarde again:

 * Matt Engarde: It looks like he enjoys being the Nickel Samurai. The popularity, the women, the stardom, etc.

 * What happened: Engarde claims he was preparing for the post-ceremony show. He was in his Nickel Samurai costume, resting all along. When he woke up, Corrida was already dead and Engarde was arrested.

 * The victim: Engarde says he had nothing to do with Corrida at the time. He beat Corrida at the ceremony, so he had no reason to kill him.

 * The charge of murder: Engarde says the police found a button on his costume. The button belonged to the Jammin' Ninja's costume, so they suspected Engarde. It looks like the real murderer tried to frame him.

Pearl convinces you to try out the Magatama. You don't have to present it as Phoenix does so automatically. Engarde says once more that he didn't kill Corrida. Thankfully, no Psyche-Locks appear. It looks like he is innocent after all!

Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Justice For All/Episode 4: Farewell, My Turnabout/Part 1-2: Investigation

Wright & Co. Law Offices
Talk to Pearl if you want. Otherwise, Move to the Hotel Lobby. Also, you can move to the Detention Center to talk to Engarde. But the conversation is mostly the same as yesterday or "Part 1" of the investigation (check the previous page on the last part about taking Engarde's case).

Hotel Lobby
You will see Oldbag there. Talk to Oldbag:

 * The victim: Oldbag looks smitten with Corrida and seems to have an issue with Lotta. She will also tell you about getting over her last case with you.

 * What happened: Oldbag claims she saw the most important moment that night.

 * What you witnessed: You ask her what she saw, but 4 Psyche-Locks appear around her. [[File:PW_PsycheLock.png]]

Move to the Hallway.

Hallway
You see Lotta there looking rather annoyed, as she says she lost her camera. Talk to Lotta:

 * Camera: Lotta says she bought the $1,600 camera for $700. She says she lost it on the night of the murder. She doesn't really remember what she took pictures of. Lotta's Camera will be added to the Court Record.
 * What happened: Lotta says she was hanging around near Engarde's door on the night of the murder. She wants to capture that "big scoop". What exactly is that "big scoop"?

 * Big scoop: When you ask her what, 2 Psyche-Locks are placed. Another one?

You can now Move to Engarde's Hotel Room.

Engarde's Hotel Room
You meet a young woman, who (almost) correctly states your purpose. She introduces herself as Adrian Andrews, Engarde's Manager. Talk to Andrews.

 * Night of the murder: Andrews says she had dinner with Engarde before the ceremony. She went to Viola Hall to watch the ceremony, then went to the Lobby to help prepare for the post-ceremony show. She called Engarde for the show, and found Corrida's dead body afterward. You note that she seems oddly calm for someone who recently discovered a corpse.

 * Relation to Engarde: Andrews restates that she is Engarde's manager. She also reveals that Corrida did not have a manager, due to the policy of the studio he worked at.

Present Juan Corrida's Profile to Andrews. Andrews blames Engarde and Corrida's rivalry for the murder. Does she know anything about it?

 * Motive for murder: You ask her what she knows, but 4 Psyche-Locks slam in your face!

Move to Corrida's Hotel Room, accessible from the Hallway.

Corrida's Hotel Room
Here it is, the crime scene. You see Gumshoe here, of course. He will help you whenever he can due to yesterday's kidnapping. He gives you the Hotel Map, which will be added to the Court Record. Talk to Gumshoe:

 * Cause of death: Gumshoe doesn't have the autopsy report, but he does have the photo of the crime scene. It is the picture of Corrida's dead body on his own chair. It looks like a stab wound in the chest is the cause. Gumshoe says there are fingerprints on the knife that was found, and research shows they are Engarde's. This is bad. The Crime Photo will be added to the Court Record.

 * Reason for arrest: Gumshoe says a button was found on Engarde. They found out that the button belonged to the Jammin' Ninja Costume. It looked like he had a struggle as everything shows. Gumshoe also says there is even a witness. Unfortunately, it's Oldbag.

Gumshoe then mentions that something is a little off. Pan right, and Examine the open guitar case. It looks like there's nothing in it, but you see that it's wet on the top of the lid... and nothing else. The Guitar Case will be added to the Court Record.

Now, Examine the wine-glass on top of the dressing table on the right. It looks like it has tomato juice in it, and it looks intact... yet everything else is scattered. Weird. The Wine Glass will be added to the Court Record.

Present the Wine Glass to Gumshoe. Gumshoe says Franziska von Karma noticed it first. Speaking of von Karma, she herself appears in the room. She takes Gumshoe away (after some physically humorous moments). She leaves behind a piece of paper.

Examine the paper on the coffee table. It looks like an autograph for a certain "Wendy". Sound familiar? The Autograph will be added to the Court Record.

Examine the teddy bears (not required). Pearl is shocked to see bears in all shapes and sizes. This includes a "flashback" to the last case "Turnabout Big Top" with Moe's earlier phrase. True, the clown has given you something to remember by. Hopefully, you won't get nightmares over a clown.

After you are done with both Engarde and Corria's rooms, Move to the Viola Hall.

Viola Hall
You will run into Powers. You can Talk to Powers if you want for some comedic conversations, but you won't learn anything to help your case.

It's about The Nickel Samurai and the Jammin' Ninja but with Pearls, having a hard time deciding which kids show she's going to watch. Poor Pearls.

Present Adrian Andrews' Profile to Powers. Powers says he may know Andrews. He also likes to share a little secret that involves her. Talk to Powers.

 * The gossip on Adrian: Powers will present you a newspaper clipping, that reveals that Andrews, referred as Ms. A.A., once had a relationship with Corrida. The Magazine Clipping will be added to the Court Record.

Move to the Hotel Lobby.

Hotel Lobby (2)
Present Maya's Magatama to Oldbag:

Oldbag's Psyche-Lock: What You Witnessed
Talk to Oldbag:

 * What you witnessed: Unfortunately, Oldbag tells you that she saw Engarde coming out of Corrida's room on her way to the toilets, ten minutes before the discovery of the crime. She says she will be the witness of the stand (not again).

 * Engarde's past: Oldbag will say Engarde created a scandal that plagued Corrida, the scandal that revolves around Andrews. She thinks Engarde did it on purpose to drag Corrida's reputation through the mud. Oldbag, of course, learned this from the tabloids.

Move to the Hallway.

Hallway (2)
Present Maya's Magatama to Lotta:

Lotta's Psyche-Lock: Big Scoop
Talk to Lotta:

 * Big scoop: She says she had already written an article about the scandal. However, it was in her Camera case when the camera got stolen. Lotta's Camera will be updated to the Court Record.

Move to the Criminal Affairs Dept. accessible from the Hotel Lobby.

Criminal Affairs Department
You will see Gumshoe there. Talk to Gumshoe about all topics. Nothing worth hearing as you should already know this by now.

 * Airtight evidence: In short, the photo with Juan has a button missing from his chest. Also, the knife has Engarde's fingerprints on it.

 * Airtight testimony: Oldbag saw Mr. Engarde came out around the time of the victim's death.

Present the Magazine Clipping to Gumshoe. He says the case is related to a woman who committed suicide two years ago. Her name was Celeste Inpax. She was once Corrida's manager and Andrews' mentor.

 * Celeste Inpax: Gumshoe isn't sure if there is a connection between Celeste's suicide and the murder.

Suddenly, von Karma arrives sacking Gumshoe for aiding Phoenix for all of this time. Just then, an all too familiar face appears.

Miles Edgeworth!

Edgeworth scolds von Karma for being so enraged about her lost perfect record. Gumshoe will be safe from von Karma's clutches... for now. You can Talk to Edgeworth.

 * Tomorrow's trial: Edgeworth claims to have something you lack, the truth. He says he will help you win this case.

 * "Proof of von Karma's blood": You suspect the reason Edgeworth left is because of you. When Edgeworth lost, his perfect record that runs on the von Karma blood was destroyed. Edgeworth asks you why are you still here.

 * Why stand in court? You explain to Edgeworth that you believe in your clients and would not give up until you get the verdict you want. Edgeworth says you still have a lot to learn.

Present Celeste Inpax's Profile to Edgeworth. He says Celeste was Andrews' mentor and Corrida's manager before she committed suicide. Edgeworth says Celeste left a suicide note before she died, but it went missing.
 * Missing suicide note: There is no solid evidence that Celeste wrote a suicide note, but they found ink on her right hand. They suspect Corrida hid the note, since he was the one who discovered her body. Edgeworth gives you the first part of the police report on her suicide. The Suicide Report will be added to the Court Record.

Present the Suicide Report to Edgeworth. The second part of the report is an attempted suicide made by Adrian Andrews. The attempted suicide note said something about Andrews' "co-dependency".
 * "co-dependency": A few days after Celeste's suicide, Andrews attempted to do the same thing. Apparently, Andrews had a high dependence for Celeste. After the suicide, the world "turned pitched-dark" around her. Andrews lost her will to live, because without Celeste, there would be no one to guide her and now she doesn't know what to do. The Attempted Suicide Report will be added to the Court Record.

Note: On the 3DS/Steam Trilogy version, "co-dependency" has been replaced with "Dependant nature"

Showing Celeste Inpax to Matt Engarde: Once you acquire her picture profile, you can go to the Detention Center. Matt thinks you're invading his privacy and decides to go out to lunch. You won't be able to chat with him at this point. Finish the court case first if you want to talk to him again.

Move to Engarde's Hotel Room.

Engarde's Hotel Room (2)
Inside you find that von Karma and Andrews just finished talking. Von Karma shows you how she knew where Gumshoe is: With a Transmitter. Von Karma leaves the room. Just what were the two talking about? Oh well, Present Matt Engarde's Profile to Andrews; She talks of asking to be his manager, and you're able to question her about Engarde's Motive for Murder. She grows defensive and quickly shuts down the conversation. Present Maya's Magatama to Andrews.

Andrews's Psyche-Lock: Motive for Murder
Talk to Andrews:

 * Motive for murder: Andrews finally admits her insecurities. She was scarred by the death of her mentor and would go to great lengths to find the note and the truth. However, she says she would never kill anyone to get to the note.

You promise not to tell her insecurity to anyone else. Pearl then notices Andrews playing with a card in her hand. Andrews says she found it in her purse after the crime. It looks like there is a picture of a shell on it.

Move to the Wright & Co. Law Offices.

Wright & Co. Law Offices (2)
You now know Andrews' motive for killing Corrida, so she looks like a suspect. You suddenly get a call from De Killer. He says Maya is safe and promises not to go near her (even to feed her). Just then Mia comes in from Pearl's body. Talk to Mia:

 * Maya's situation: Mia says Maya is safe...for now. She read a note Maya wrote and promises to find out anything about the place she can. Clever!

 * The kidnapper: Unfortunately, Mia couldn't find the identity of the kidnapper, especially since Maya never saw his face.

Speaking of Maya, let's see how she is doing.

???
As Maya, Examine a card lying on the ground. It looks like the same card you saw Andrews play with earlier.

Examine the door. Maya decides to try to unlock the door with the card. Will she escape?

The day now ends with a cliffhanger. Will you manage to get the not guilty verdict tomorrow? Pray that you would, for Maya's safety.

Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Justice For All/Episode 4: Farewell, My Turnabout/Part 2-1: Trial

Before the Trial
You get a call from de Killer, who tells you he will send a "present" to help you win this case. What could it be?

Inside the courtroom, you will notice that von Karma is absent. What happened? The bailiff comes in and says von Karma has been shot! Could this be the present de Killer was talking about? Whatever it is, it must be helpful without a prosecution.

However, Edgeworth comes in. He tells the court that von Karma is alive and well and he will be taking her place. Well so much for that "present" but hey, it will help with the last part of your amnesia since the start of the game. Being a professional prosecutor, he might still help you since "Rise From The Ashes".

Edgeworth calls Gumshoe to the stand and has him describe the facts of the case. He's already familiar with this case and Gumshoe has to turn in his badge after this trial. You should feel sorry for Gumshoe. But for now, let's win this case for Maya's sake!

Bare Facts of the Case: Cross-Examination
Press on statement three. Gumshoe will show you the crime photo. If you look closely at his bandana, you will see that it's wrapped tightly around Corrida's neck. It looks like he died from strangulation, but what about the knife? Gumshoe claims it was put there on purpose after the crime. Juan's Autopsy Report will be added to the Court Record.

Press on the fourth statement. The guitar case was suspicious because it was empty. They only found Corrida's fingerprints on it. The Guitar Case will be updated in the Court Record.

Press on the fifth statement. They found the guitar at the TV studio Corrida works at. He only brought the case with him, but why?

Edgeworth has heard enough. He states that Corrida was strangled to death, yet there was a knife on the body. Edgeworth has Gumshoe testify about Engarde's arrest.

Gumshoe's Testimony: Why Arrest Engarde?
The Knife will be added to the Court Record. If you check it, it says "Gatewater" on it. The button has blood on it. Gumshoe says it was the victim's! The Jammin' Ninja's Button will be added to the Court Record.

Why Arrest Engarde?: Cross-Examination
Present the Knife on the sixth statement. It says "Gatewater" on it, so the murderer couldn't have just purchased it, therefore it couldn't be a premeditated murder. Edgeworth however, says the knife belonged to Engarde's Hotel Room. Remember, there was a knife missing on Engarde's table. Engarde probably took the knife to stab Corrida in the chest.

Darn, a trap. Edgeworth challenges you to present new evidence to counter his claim. Not only that, you're given one chance to prove it. (Warning! Make sure to save because if you present anything other than the Wine Glass in the next part you will get a Game Over!) When asked if you would say Actually, I do, Present the Wine Glass. If you look at the crime scene, there is a complete mess, probably due to the struggle. However, the wine glass is intact. Edgeworth sees no importance, as the wine glass was set down by Adrian Andrews, the woman who discovered the scene. He suspects she set it down after the crime without thinking. When asked if you agree, say There's no way.

Andrews could not have set it down. Probably someone else? Edgeworth says they found Andrews' fingerprints and no one else's. The Wine Glass will be updated to the Court Record. Andrews probably set it down after being shocked upon seeing Corrida's dead body. Darn, another trap. It looks like Edgeworth had provided explainable evidence, but he isn't done yet as he has a witness to confirm the crime scene. Unfortunately, the person in a spacesuit with a ray gun turns out to be Wendy Oldbag! Not again!

Edgeworth has Oldbag testify what she saw at the crime scene (even though he thought he wouldn't see her again).

Warning: When you reach the part with the full penalty, presenting anything other than the Wine Glass is a simple Game Over! Get your save spot ready if you're worried about starting over again!

What You Witnessed: Cross-Examination
Press on the second statement (though this isn't required). Oldbag says it is about her and Corrida. It sounds interesting, but Mia doesn't feel it is the right time to pursue this further.

Press on Oldbag's fifth statement. How can she tell she saw Engarde? You can't make the same mistake as last year, so when given a choice, choose The person's clothes. Oldbag says Engarde was wearing his racing jacket. The same jacket you saw down at the Detention Center.

The Judge asks you if Oldbag said something important. Say It was very important. Oldbags adds the jacket to her testimony.

 * He was wearing his flashy racing jacket. Honestly, it's all just for show.

Present the Jammin' Ninja's Button on that statement. The button was caught on Engarde's Nickel Samurai Costume. If Engarde was wearing the jacket as Oldbag saw, then how did it end up on the costume in question? Oldbag then testifies on what she really saw.

Who I Saw: Cross-Examination
If you are playing the HD iOS release, the HD Trilogy on Xbox or the HD Trilogy on Steam, press on Oldbag's second statement to get the Judge Wackner achievement.

This is a rather easy one. Present the Knife on Oldbag's fifth statement. If Engarde was wearing the Nickel Samurai costume on his way to his room, he wouldn't leave fingerprints, because the costume includes gloves. Edgeworth says the murderer probably took off his gloves before he committed the murder and supports it by saying Engarde was talking with Corrida and had no intention of killing him. When given a choice, choose There is a contradiction.

When asked to support your claim, Present the Knife. If Engarde went to Corrida's room without any intent, then he might not have brought his knife, and if Engarde was wearing gloves, then there wouldn't be any fingerprints on the knife. So the real killer set up the crime to mislead us. Why? To frame Matt Engarde of course! After a conversation, Oldbag will now admit she was waiting for someone other than Corrida. When asked who, Present Adrian Andrews's Profile. She was waiting for Ms. A.A.!

Oldbag will now testify about this "secret information" she had been holding. Mia doesn't have her hopes up.

Secret Information: Cross-Examination
Press on the fifth statement. How does Oldbag know about this secret information? Oldbag doesn't talk, so when given a choice, choose Present evidence, then present Lotta's Camera. Lotta kept her notes in her camera case, which Oldbag just happens to whip out during her rant. Oldbag now admits she took Lotta's information, because she thinks Lotta was working for Engarde, so Oldbag wanted to get the information. Oldbag looks very sorry, but Pile on more pressure on her. Oldbag said she only took the information, but you know she is lying, as she took something with it. When asked what, present Lotta's Camera. Lotta said she had a case containing both the information, AND the camera, and she also said both "disappeared" on her. Oldbag gives in and shows the camera itself. The court takes it and investigates it. They found one relevant picture, it looks like the Nickel Samurai heading towards Corrida's room! Lotta's Photo will be added to the Court Record. It looks decisive. When asked if you agree, say there's something strange with it. You are given one chance to prove so. One chance! You examine the photo. Present the feet area of the Nickel Samurai. If you look at the posters, The Nickel Samurai's socks are showing. In the photo, however, he is holding his hakama up as he walks, so someone shorter than Engarde was in the costume!

Warning: Like the Wine Glass, if you choose anywhere else but the feet in Lotta's Photo, it's Game Over again! Make sure you have a save spot before attempting this challenge.

It seems you have disproved Edgeworth's claims, but Mia says Edgeworth is unusually calm. Why? Edgeworth wants you to show who exactly was in the costume that night. Present Adrian Andrews's Profile, since she is noticeably shorter than Engarde, she can move freely in and out of Engarde's room, she had dinner with Engarde that night, and finally, she was at the crime scene. So Andrews had an opportunity to murder Corrida and frame Engarde for it!

You have proven Andrews's opportunity, but Mia brings bad news: what you have proven has prompted The Judge to have Andrews testify, so he's going to adjourn court until tomorrow. No! Doing so would kill Maya! You are given a choice... It doesn't matter which, since Edgeworth will request to prolong the trial, as he expected you to subpoenate Andrews. This is bad news, but the good news is The Judge calls a recess rather than going for tomorrow, so you should thank Edgeworth and shake your fist at him at the same time.

Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Justice For All/Episode 4: Farewell, My Turnabout/Part 2-2: Trial

Recess
Engarde says he was asleep when the crime occurred and Andrews woke him up after putting the button on his costume. Mia then tells you something. Recall Andrews' motive, Celeste Inpax (if you remember her) committed suicide and police say Corrida hid the note she left and Andrews always looked up to Celeste. So she would do anything to get the note from Corrida, even kill him! Mia then reminds you that Edgeworth was the one who told you about her past. So he still handles this case.

Edgeworth calls Andrews to the stand. She admits to her relationship with Corrida and doesn't want the court to speak about it. She claims that she didn't kill him.

Andrews's Testimony: When I Found the Body
Mia advises you to throw off her pacing by showing strong evidence after leading Andrews off guard. So you would need to press Andrew's statements for loopholes. In other words, find a way to throw off her thinking until she's able to tell the truth.

When I Found the Body: Cross-Examination
Press on Andrews's 3rd statement. Nothing will come out, but this will make things easier (trust us on this one). What you only need to know is how normal people get shocked at the crime scene.

Now Press on her 5th statement. Andrews will say she did pour some juice (tomato juice if you remember), but she didn't feel good. So she set it down without thinking.

Andrews will now say she made a mistake on "one thing". You ask her what, but she doesn't answer. Press further. Andrews will say she knocked over a flower vase as she put her drink down. The vase fell on the guitar case. This confession will be added to the testimony.

 * I was the one who knocked the flower vase over, where it fell onto the guitar case.

Aha! There's a contradiction! Present the Guitar Case or the Crime Photo on either the 4th statement or the newly added statement. If you look at the crime photo, you will see that the case is open. So, if the vase fell on the guitar case, the guitar case should be wet on the inside. If you look at the crime photo again, you see the glass shards everywhere, but they should be inside the case. Therefore, if the case was open, someone could have touched it.

Edgeworth reminds you that Andrews says that she touched the vase and nothing else, but what if she did touch the guitar case? When given the option, choose to make her testify. Choosing let her be makes Mia warn you about disrupting Andrews pacing. So you object and unfortunately, you disrupt the judge's pacing as well! At least there's no penalty as this case goes on.

The Guitar Case: Cross-Examination
Present the Guitar Case at either the 2nd, 3rd or 4th statements. "It's elementary, my dear!" She could not have opened the guitar case because they only found Corrida's fingerprints. Andrews will explain that she was wearing gloves. Hmm, That's strange... Present the Wine Glass. Her fingerprints were found on it, so it would be strange that she took off her gloves to pour some juice and put them back on afterwards, just to open the guitar case.

Mia now says you have found a weak point, the guitar case. She thinks something other than a guitar was in the guitar case. Remember, the case was closed by the time the murder occurred, and when the crime photo was taken, the case was open, so Andrews must have opened the case for a reason. When asked to present the thing that was in the case, Present either The Nickel Samurai, or Lotta's Photo. Andrews found the Nickel Samurai costume, so she must have used it to hide her identity, as proven in Lotta's Photo. Edgeworth asks why would The Nickel Samurai costume be in Corrida's room. It was supposed to be Engarde's. When given the options, choose It was a spare costume (alternatively, if you wish to risk a small penalty you can choose It was stolen from Engarde for a brief moment of hilarity). If you newcomers wonder what's so funny about that choice It was stolen from Engarde, you claim that Engarde would run out naked to the press conference, but Miles mocks you to be naked out of the courtroom, correcting you that Engarde was sleeping with his costume on!

Engarde was wearing the costume, but at the same time, Andrews found the costume inside the Jammin' Ninja's guitar case, so there were TWO costumes. But, why would he bring the costume with him? Present the Press Conference Ticket. Engarde was supposed to attend a press conference, but he had no idea there was one. So, the one who set up the conference must have been Corrida, because he was going to be there with the Nickel Samurai Costume. Some say The Nickel Samurai was going to confess something, but if Corrida was the one confessing, but not Engarde, then that would be public disclosure!

Adrian will explain Corrida's motive, if he lost the Grand Prix, then he would take Engarde down with him by telling the public his deep dark secret. Corrida had been holding a secret so powerful, it would destroy Engarde's acting career. She doesn't quite know what it is. She helped Corrida set up the press conference, but now she feels as if she was protecting Engarde. Time for another testimony.

Protecting Matt: Cross-Examination
Press on the 1st statement (not required). Andrews gives you a good point: If you want to prove someone committed a crime, you need a motive, opportunity to commit a crime and decisive evidence.

Press on the 4th statement. Although you claimed earlier that the knife was planted by the killer, Andrews will claim that the button found on Engarde's hakama still stands as decisive evidence. She will revise her statement.

 * That button was torn off of Juan during his fight with Matt.

Present Juan's Autopsy Report on this revised statement. According to the report, Corrida was strangled to death, and stabbed afterwards. If that is true, then the button would have been pulled off after the stab. The judge will ask if the murderer did all of it. Answer, To pin the crime on Engarde. When asked who would do such a thing, Present Adrian Andrews's Profile.

Phoenix describes the evidence against Andrews:

The knife was planted with Engarde's fingerprints all over it after Corrida's death so it is obvious that someone was framing him, the button was pulled off with Corrida's blood and put on Engarde's hakama to frame him, someone put on the Nickel Samurai costume to ensure Engarde gets implicated, Andrews' fingerprints weren't found on the guitar case but on the glass of juice next to Corrida's body, and finally, someone wearing the Nickel Samurai costume seemed short, and Andrews looks short enough for his pants to sag. Andrews was the one who discovered the body, so if all of that is true, Andrews could be the real killer and went to great lengths to frame Engarde.

Andrews refuses to testify against your claims, as it would make things even worse for herself. The Judge agrees as it is the law. Edgeworth meanwhile, confirms that though you have proven Andrews's opportunity, you have yet to prove her motive. Does this mean the trial would continue tomorrow!? You object and inadvertently mention Maya because of the condition of Matt's acquittal of this case by "De Killer". Hearing this, Edgeworth again convinces The Judge to prolong the trial. He finds it odd that Andrews poured a glass of juice after discovering Corrida's dead body, she would be too shaken to stir the drink. Edgeworth wants Andrews to testify about his curiosity.

When I Found the Body: Cross-Examination
Present the Crime Photo on statements 4, 5, or 6. The crime photo has a knife sticking inside Corrida, so when Andrews discovered it, she planted a knife after thinking Corrida wasn't dead. Her testimony, as predicted, implicates Andrews as the real killer.

Andrews, however, pleads that she didn't do so. The Judge asks her what she is hiding. She refuses to testify, because someone told her not to. You told Mia that usually, the killer would admit to the crime and now that you think about it in her case, she hasn't admitted to killing her victim.

Mia suggests Franziska von Karma told Andrews to not testify as it would get Engarde acquitted. Andrews now undyingly believes von Karma's words and refuses to testify any further. But taking that advice would be even worse and Engarde would be acquitted anyways. When asked about your intentions, you can Force Andrews to testify or Request "not guilty" verdict. It doesn't matter what you choose. After some... "encouragements" from Edgeworth, Andrews finally agrees to tell the truth in her final testimony.

My "Crime": Cross-Examination
There is absolutely nothing wrong with Andrews's testimony. Even Mia couldn't find a single drop of lies. Press on all of Andrews' statements anyways:

 * 1st statement: The scarf he was strangled with was part of the Jammin' Ninja costume.

 * 2nd statement: Andrews suspected Engarde, because Corrida was about to reveal Engarde's deep dark secret. Engarde committed the murder because he knew it would happen.

 * 3rd statement: Matt was sleeping and the knife was covered with his fingerprints. Andrews thought she'd use it to implicate Matt.

 * 4th statement: When Andrews stabbed Corrida, she noticed the blood-spilled button, and decided to tear it off and put it on Engarde's hakama.

 * 5th statement: Inconvenience? Edgeworth reminds you that Lotta and Oldbag saw Andrews come out of Corrida's door.

 * 6th statement: Andrews reveals that she was the one that ordered the costume, because she was following Corrida's request. She'd thought she use it to, you guessed it, frame Engarde.

After pressing all of the statements Andrews tells you she framed Engarde, because she knew Engarde did it.

The Judge has enough; though Andrews did something unlawful, her testimony still stands and now he knows she is not the real killer. Even Edgeworth says it's pointless to continue.

Therefore there is absolutely no reason to question Andrews further and no evidence to implicate Andrews more. For those conditions, The Judge, to your horror, extends the trial for tomorrow. Note the sound of the slamming gavel.

After the Trial
The Judge leaves his post and the audience leaves the chamber. As you ponder for Maya's safety, Edgeworth asks one more question to Andrews: The card she is holding, where and when did she find it? Andrews answers: As she was rearranging the crime scene, Andrews found the card right next to Corrida's dead body. She thought she'd keep it in her handbag. Hearing this, Edgeworth yells at Andrews and harshly demands her to give it to him. Why? What is so important about it?
