======================================================================
Hi, I'm Lestor Wong. I post on GameFAQ.com/ GameSpot.com by the
username "neeker". Feedback for this document can be directed to
lestor underscore . You may check out my other

2. INTRODUCTION
======================================================================
Hi, I'm back again with my third FAQ/ Walkthrough for the Gyakuten
Saiban series. My previous works for the previous games in the series
have won me consecutive awards, so I feel compelled to "complete the
trilogy".
Gyakuten Saiban 3 (Phoenix Wright Ace Attorney: Trials & Tribulations)
is the final instalment of a series of courtroom drama featuring
Phoenix Wright as the key character. I'd strongly suggest you play the
previous games to get a hang of how things will proceed. Logic doesn't
necessarily make any sense in the game, so you should throw that out
of the window. Nevertheless, it's still a compelling game that I'd
rate as the best adventure game series I've ever played.
Meanwhile, since the gameplay here is similar to its previous two
instalments, I'll not repeat the "controls" and "getting started" info
that I included in my previous walkthroughs. Feel free to artifically
inflate their hits if you really need to find out how to play the
game. I'll still include a "characters" section to describe some of
the regular casts though.
Also, when reading my previous two guides, I find them to be a little
long-winded at times. So, I'll try to be less descriptive this time
round, without sacrificing on pinpointing the solutions to you in an
organized manner.
Last but not least, I must say that the music in this game is so much
better than the previous game. I love it.
======================================================================
======================================================================
3. CHARACTERS
======================================================================
These are the key personnel who appear in this game. Some are familiar
faces, some are not. One of them even has relations to an old nemesis.
You've been warned.
1. PHOENIX WRIGHT
-----------------
Phoenix is the hero of this game (and the previous ones). The once
rookie defense attorney has risen from the ashes to become one of the
best in the business. During the events in the final case of the last
game, he has also learnt the true virtues of being a lawyer. Good
stuff, this guy.
2. MILES EDGEWORTH
------------------
Edgeworth is Phoenix's childhood friend... and arch-rival. Traumatised
by a childhood incident, Edgeworth betrayed his dream of becoming a
defense attorney, and became a prosecutor instead. He's known to be
willing to "do everything just to get a guilty sentence for the
defendant". Ever since his self-imposed exile, he has returned a
stronger person. Tends to help Phoenix in court nowadays, even though
they may be on opposing sides. In this game, you even get to play as
him - all fanboys (and girls) rejoice.
3. MIA FEY
----------
Mia was Phoenix's mentor, and a real looker too. Unfortunately,
she was brutally murdered in the first game. Her strong spiritual
strengths, however, tend to manifest through her sister, Maya, and
at times, her cousin, Pearl. Her "presence" has helped turn the tide
for Phoenix on many occasions. In this game, you'll actually get to
play as her.
4. MAYA FEY
-----------
Forever Phoenix's sidekick, a cosplayer's wet dream. Maya's is Mia's
younger sister, and her training as a spiritual medium seems to be
bearing much fruits as time passes. Has a habit of getting herself
involved in murder cases as well, especially as the accused.
5. PEARL FEY
------------
The Fey family has a knack of producing mediums, and Pearl is one of
its "products". Pearl is Maya's cousin, and with her strengths in the
mystical, she will eventually grant Phoenix the power to peep into the
dark secrets of the various witnesses. In a case of power struggle to
dispose Maya as the official heir of the Fey family, Pearl's mother,
Morgan, was arrested for her hand in a brutal murder.
6. THE JUDGE
------------
No one knows his name, but this funny old man continues to rule the
courts with an alarming degree of clueless-ness - the usually
righteous Judge is sometimes swayed by pretty female witnesses and
nasty prosecutors. His favorite past time is pounding his gravel.
7. DICK GUMSHOE
---------------
Detective Gumshoe is a long-serving police officer who, despite his
lack of detective skills, makes up with diligence and loyalty. He
has proven to be a valuable ally to Phoenix in the past. He has an
unexplainable fondness of Edgeworth though.
8. WINSTON PAYNE
----------------
Popularly known as the "Rookie Crusher", Payne returns to the universe
to take on Mia in this game. The case also details the origins of how
he lost his hair.
9. MARVIN GROSSBERG
--------------------
Grossberg is Mia's mentor. He's a vastly experienced defense attorney.
10. DAHLIA HAWTHORNE
--------------------
Dahlia was Phoenix's girlfriend from five years ago. She's also one
of the most cunning criminals you'll ever faced in the series. In
fact, she's quite possibly the female version of the devil.
11. LARRY BUTZ
--------------
Another of Phoenix's childhood friends. Larry is a rather shady figure
who happens to have the hots for all beautiful women. There's a saying
among his circle of friends that if something smells, it must be the
Butz. Yeah, that's Larry for you.
12. GODOT
---------
Godot is a new enemy in court... or is he? The prosecutor who wears
a visor certainly has a mysterious background. He's also hopelessly
addicted to coffee. I recommend Nescafe.
13. FRANZISKA VON KARMA
-----------------------
Franziska is a talented prosecutor, who handles cases from the tender
age of 13. She's not exactly a fan of Phoenix, since he destroyed her
father's career by solving a 15-year-old murder that he committed in
the first game. Despite her obvious talents, she has found it hard to
get the better of Phoenix.
======================================================================
======================================================================
4. EPISODE 1: TURNABOUT MEMORIES [ PW3401 ]
======================================================================
----------------------------------------------------------------------
BACKGROUND [ PW3402 ]
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This is a case from five years ago. You'll get to control Mia Fey, the
rookie attorney here. Watch the intro as two men were arguing about a
girl. Soon, one is found dead. It's only logical that this other dude
is rounded up as a suspect... and he's none other than a very young
Phoenix Wright.
And so begins your adventure.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
PART 1-1: TRIAL [ PW3403 ]
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Date: 4/11
Time: 9:40am
Location: District Court, Defendant Lobby No. 3
Click through the conversations with Marvin Grossberg to find out more
about the background of the case, as well as your previous outing in
court. You've lost the last one, but you're determined to win this
time round. During this initial discussion, you'll also come face-to-
face with Phoenix. Ok, not exactly face-to-face, since he's wearing a
mask, apparently nursing a bout of flu. Amidst his vehement coughing,
you'll find out that the victim is Doug Swallow, who's a fourth-year
student at Ivy University.
At this point in time, you may want to check out the court record for
more information about the case. Pay particular attention to Doug's
Autopsy Report, which says:
Date and time of death: 4/9, 3pm
Cause of death: Fatal electric shock
Also take note of this person called Dahlia Hawthorne in the profiles.
She's Phoenix's girlfriend, but she has been dating the victim up
until eight months ago.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Date: 4/11
Time: 10:00am
Location: District Court, Courtroom No. 2
Go through the conversations with the good old judge, until prosecutor
Winston Payne (pre-balding version) is introduced. Payne will provide
a short summary of the events, followed by a crime scene photo. This
shows Doug lying face down with a broken umbrella next to him. Payne
further adds that the body was discovered by some students in the
university shortly after the murder. Phoenix was also seen trying to
run away from the scene.
Crime Photo 1 acquired.
Continue with the discussions, and the gentlemenly Payne will ask you
to explain the cause of death. Well, if you've read the autopsy report
earlier, this should be no problem.
Select "Electrocution" to proceed.
Payne continues with the motive of the crime. Apparently, there was
some bad blood between Doug and Phoenix. He'll soon ask you to explain
the source of this bad blood to the court.
Present Dahlia's profile to continue.
Carry on with the conversations here until Payne summons Phoenix to
the stands.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
PHOENIX'S TESTIMONY: THE VICTIM AND I [ PW3404 ]
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Phoenix's testimony are as follow. Take note of the numbers beside
each sentence. I'll refer to these numbers to explain the solutions
during the cross-examination parts of the game.
1: "Um, I... I admit I was there..."
2: "But I'm not a killer! All I did was find his body!"
3: "I hardly knew the guy to begin with..."
4: "I never even talked to that stuck-up British wannabe!"
----------------------------------------------------------------------
PHOENIX'S CROSS-EXAMINATION: THE VICTIM AND I [ PW3404 ]
----------------------------------------------------------------------
There's an obvious lie in Phoenix's testimony, and I hope you noticed
it. At 3, press and Phoenix will tell you what he does know about
the victim. At 4, press further - if he doesn't know Doug that well,
he wouldn't have know that he's a "British wannabe".
The judge will now request Phoenix to add the following to his
testimony:
5: "He was always walking around with a huge Union Jack on the back
of his shirt."
If you don't present anything here, Grossberg will ask whether you
need further help. Select "I'll handle this on my own" to proceed.
Now, return to 5, and present Crime Photo 1. On the photo, there was
nothing on the back of Doug's shirt. Shocked, Phoenix immediately
explains that Doug was wearing a leather jacket, and the Union Jack
logo is actually on the back of his t-shirt instead.
Well, if he did accidentally come across the body, he wouldn't have
gone as far as noticing what Doug was wearing under the jacket, would
he?
As the court goes into its usual commotion, Payne continues his attack
by bringing your attention to the medicine that Phoenix has been
taking for his cold - an over-the-counter brand called "Coldkiller X".
Apparently, Phoenix is a big fan of the brand.
When asked about the location of the medicine, Phoenix replies that he
has lost it somewhere. Now, guess what was found at the crime scene?
Payne reveals another photo, one which shows Doug holding a bottle of
"Coldkiller X" with his left hand. Not surprisingly, this bottle of
anti-histamine has Phoenix's fingerprints all over it.
Take note of the watch that Doug was wearing as well, as both Crime
Photo 2 and "Coldkiller X" are acquired.
Payne further explains that Doug's watch ceased to function when a
large wave of electricity passed through it. He'll then ask Phoenix
for an explanation to this occurence. Ignore Grossberg's buttocks and
quickly proceed to the next testimony.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
PHOENIX'S TESTIMONY: WHAT REALLY HAPPENED [ PW3405 ]
----------------------------------------------------------------------
1: "The truth is... I went because he called me."
2: "He was in the Pharmacology Dept., so we agreed to meet at 2:45
behind that building."
3: "We talked for a bit, and then at around 3:00, we split up."
4: "Then later when I went back, I found him lying there."
5: "I'd been taking Coldkiller X for the last 2 or 3 days..."
6: "But I lost my bottle of it around lunchtime on the day of the
accident."
----------------------------------------------------------------------
PHOENIX'S CROSS-EXAMINATION: WHAT REALLY HAPPENED [ PW3405 ]
----------------------------------------------------------------------
At 2, press and ask whether it was Doug who proposed the meeting time.
The answer was positive. The judge will then ask about Doug's role in
the pharmacology (damn, this word is hard to spell) department. It
seems that he was studying how to produce and improve pharmaceuticals,
and was in possession of strange machines that run on high-voltage
electricity.
Soon, you'll a chance to press further. Select "about Pharmacology
Dept." to proceed.
This reveals that to run those higher than standard voltage for the
machines, high-voltage cables are planted all above and around the
building, supported by electrical poles.
Next, press at 6. Phoenix replies that he had lunch with Dahlia. The
contents of the lunch aren't exactly important, so you can ignore them.
The judge will soon intervene though. He doesn't believe in Phoenix,
and you'll only have one chance to get away from this.
Select "Establish murder method" to proceed.
Now, present Crime Photo 1, which captures the murder method rather
clearly. Notice the severed electric cable that has a spark that's
just slightly above the body? Point to it, and present it to the court.
I don't think this requires any explanation...
... until Payne suggests that the only person with the opportunity to
use the severed cable for murder would be Phoenix.
"Atchoo!"
Payne then presents his next evidence - Phoenix's fingerprints were
found not only on the bottle of "Coldkiller X", but on Doug's leather
jacket. In fact, his entire palm print was found on the jacket! What
the hell!
Everything looks doom and gloom now. In fact, the judge is ready to
pronounce the verdict right away. After some dramatic conversations,
Phoenix finally agrees to tell the truth.
Flashback to the intro, plus an additional scene of Phoenix pushing
Doug. Phoenix then pleads for another chance to testify.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
PHOENIX'S TESTIMONY: WHEN I PUSHED THE VICTIM [ PW3406 ]
----------------------------------------------------------------------
1: "That guy... He was talking bad about Dollie..."
2: "I lost my temper and gave him a shove!"
3: "At that moment, I heard some kind of loud noise..."
4: "A little while after I left, I started to get worried."
5: "So I went back. But he-he was just just lying there, d-dead!"
----------------------------------------------------------------------
PHOENIX'S CROSS-EXAMINATION: WHEN I PUSHED THE VICTIM [ PW3406 ]
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This is your final chance. At 3, press to find out more about the
loud noise. Phoenix isn't quite sure about what it was, so choose to
"Ask for more details" to proceed.
Phoenix then remembers then Doug dropped his umbrella when he was
pushed. He fell on top of the umbrella, and it broke. This explains
the presence of the loud noise. You'll now need to establish the
relevance of this information.
Choose "Of course it's important!" to proceed.
This will slot the following statement into Phoenix's testimony, between
3 and 4. To make things easy, I'll just label it as 6:
6: "After I shoved him, he... He fell down on top of his cheap
umbrella."
At this point, you should present Crime Photo 1 again - the body was
nowhere near the umbrella. In fact, it was closer to a electrical pole
than the umbrella. What does this imply? Well, could it be that, after
Phoenix has left the scene, someone moved Doug from where he originally
fell? If that was the case, Doug must still have been alive after he
was pushed.
Meanwhile, Umbrella acquired.
Go through the next conversations now until Phoenix's Testimony is
acquired as well.
Payne then unleashes his next weapon - a witness none other than
Phoenix's girlfriend, Dahlia Hawthorne. Apparently, Dahlia was at the
crime scene when the murder took place. With this, I can safely
pronounce her the murderer... but you still have to prove it, yes?
The judge calls for a recess now, so you can finally take a break.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Date: 4/11
Time: 11:52am
Location: District Court, Defendant Lobby No. 3
Phoenix appears relaxed. Continue talking to him about Dahlia, and
he'll tell you that he met her in this courthouse some eight months
ago. He'll eventually show you a heart-shaped pendant with a bottle in
the middle. He explains that this was a present from Dahlia.
Dahlia's Present added to Court Record.
As you go through the next conversations, Phoenix reveals something
odd about Dahlia. After giving the pendant to him, she has, on a few
occasions, asked that he returns it. Continue talking, and you'll
present a newspaper clipping from 8/28 that details a murder in this
very courthouse. The murder was comitted on 8/27, which, incidentally,
was when Phoenix met Dahlia for the first time.
The reason as to why you decided to take on this case is now clear -
you believe that there's some relationship between the courthouse
murder and the case. Newspaper Clipping now added to the records.
I'd suggest you check out this clip now to find out more about the
courthouse murder. It appears that a lawyer was murdered in the
cafeteria, and a 19-year-old female college student was hauled up for
questioning.
Grossberg fears that the evidences that you've now are insufficient.
He excuses himself to the reading room downstairs for more clues. This
is when court resumes.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
PART 1-2: TRIAL [ PW3407 ]
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Date: 4/11
Time: 12:13pm
Location: District Court, Courtroom No. 2
If you've watched the Japanese TV drama "Fugoh Keiji" (Millionaire
Detective, loosely translated), you may find Dahlia's taling style a
little similar to Kyoko Fukada's character in the show. She seems
intend to help her little "Feenie" (aargh!) though, so go through the
initial conversations until she gives her first testimony.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
DAHLIA'S TESTIMONY: WHAT I WITNESSED [ PW3408 ]
----------------------------------------------------------------------
1: "I had been planning to go back to Feenie's place after class was
over."
2: "Feenie and Dougie... They were talking behind the building."
3: "Then suddenly... Dougie got all wobbly and just collapsed."
4: "That's when Feenie noticed that I was there."
5: "I went to go and find some other students and they called the
authorities."
----------------------------------------------------------------------
DAHLIA'S CROSS-EXAMINATION: WHAT I WITNESSED [ PW3408 ]
----------------------------------------------------------------------
As you prepare for the cross-examination, Dahlia comments that you
haven't changed a bit. Looks like you're already met her before...
perhaps during the courthouse murder case?
Anyway, let's proceed. At 3, press to get a confirmation on whether
Doug simply collapse on his own. Dahlia insists that that's true.
You should now select "Show contradiction" to counter her claims -
Phoenix's palm print was found on Doug's jacket, which is proof that
Phoenix did indeed push Doug during their conversation.
This will lead to a revision to Dahlia's testimony:
6: "Um, actually, I didn't see the moment he pushed Dougie."
7: "It didn't look like they were fighting, and I didn't hear any
noise either."
Well, at 7, present Phoenix's Testimony - it has been established that
when he pushed Doug, he heard a loud noise. If Dahlia was really that
close to the two of them, she'd have heard that noise as well.
Dahlia explains that she didn't hear anything as she was listening to
music with her headphones at the time. You'll soon remember something
in Dahlia's testimony that could change the course of this whole case.
Select "There was lightning" to proceed - could it be that Doug
actually died from behing hit by lightning? Meaning, could his death
been entirely accidental?
Well, not exactly, according to Payne. He has done some research
earlier, and it showed that there wasn't any lightning at the crime
scene at the time of the event. The Crime Photo 1 also shows that an
electrical cable is strongly linked to the case. In fact, he then
presents an affidavit from the pharmacology students who were doing
experiments in their labs that day.
The affidavit says that all equipment in the labs lost power all of a
sudden at around 2:55pm that day. The blackout was obviously due to
the electrical cable being severed. According to the students, the
cables was already very old, and even a small bump would've caused them
to break. As a result, it highly possible that Doug died as a result of
contact with the severed cable.
Students' Testimony acquired.
Continue on, and the judge will ask for your opinion about the cause
of the severed cable. Present Phoenix's profile now. If you look back
at his testimony, he mentioned that he heard a loud noise after he
pushed Doug. In other words, it's highly likely that the push was the
main cause of the power outage.
You continue after Payne tries to interrupt. Showing Crime Photo 1, you
explain that the broken umbrella was found by the electrical pole that's
further away from the hanging cable. This proves that Doug actually
bumped into that pole after being pushed, since he did land on the
umbrella then. This impact caused the cable to break.
Question is, how did his body end up at the near pole? The conclusion
is that someone other than Phoenix must have moved the body, and
electrocuted Doug.
This eventually leads to Dahlia's next testimony.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
DAHLIA'S TESTIMONY: WHAT I WITNESSED, PART 2 [ PW3409 ]
----------------------------------------------------------------------
1: "The truth is... Feenie pushed him twice."
2: "The first time was into the electrical pole. That's when the
cable broke."
3: "Then Dougie tried his best to run away from him..."
4: "But Feenie caught up and crashed into him from behind."
5: "The cable snapping, and Dougie being electrocuted - it all
occured in less than a minute."
----------------------------------------------------------------------
DAHLIA'S CROSS-EXAMINATION: WHAT I WITNESSED, PART 2 [ PW3409 ]
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This should be easy... if you've been checking your evidences. At 5,
present Crime Photo 2 - remember the watch that stopped at the time
when Doug was electrocuted? Well, it shows 3:05pm. The students'
testimony, however, stated that the power outage occured at around
2:55pm. A 10-minute interval between the onset of the blackout and
the time of electrocution? You suggest that someone must have arrived
at the crime scene, and killed Doug during this interval.
You'll soon have to point the identity of this real murderer. Present
Dahlia's profile when given the chance - it could only have been her,
especially when she has so aptly claimed that she was at the scene.
Continue with the conversations until Grossberg returns from his
sleuthing. He brings an important Police Report, which is quickly
added to your Court Record.
Read the report to find out more about the courthouse murder. The
victim of the case was Diego Armando, who happened to be your boy-
friend! The murder happened at 4:00pm on 8/27, in the courthouse
cafeteria. While interviewing the suspect, Dahlia Hawthorne, Diego
ingested poison. Traces of said poision were found on his coffee cup.
However, no poison was found near or on the suspect. It's unclear how
the poison entered Diego's cup.
Back to the present day, Dahlia denies your allegations. After some
thoughts, you request for further testimony from her.

DAHLIA'S TESTIMONY: HOW I MET MY FEENIE [ PW3410 ]
----------------------------------------------------------------------
1: "I first met my darling Feenie eight months ago."
2: "It's like we were destined to meet in this very courthouse's
basement reading room."
3: "The moment our eyes met, my heart skipped a beat!"
4: "We've been going out ever since that fateful day."
5: "We're so lovey-wuvey we literally make people sick! It's just
jealousy, I think..."

DAHLIA'S CROSS-EXAMINATION: HOW I MET MY FEENIE [ PW3410 ]
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Without further ado, press at 2 to find out why a literature student
like Dahlia was doing in a courthouse reading room. Keep pressing when
given the prompt. This will lead to a revised testimony:
6: "I had come to this courthouse to do some research for a paper I
was writing."
Woohoo! Time to present the police report - Dahlia wasn't there to
research, she was there to meet up with Diego. In other words, Dahlia
was the prime suspect in a criminal case just eight months ago.
You've successfully tied both crimes together. Expect more lies from
Dahlia now as she testifies about the courthouse murder case.

DAHLIA'S TESTIMONY: THE POISONING [ PW3411 ]
----------------------------------------------------------------------
1: "I met the lawyer who was poisoned to discuss something in the
cafeteria that day."
2: "I left my seat for just a moment, and that's when it happened!"
3: "From what I heard, it was a liquid poison that is lethal at just
2 teaspoons."
4: "Not only that, I heard it was a very special kind of poison."
5: "So you see, I'm innocent! I wouldn't even know where to get a
poison like that!"

DAHLIA'S TESTIMONY: THE POISONING [ PW3411 ]
----------------------------------------------------------------------
At 5, present Doug's profile - remember Dahlia was seeing Doug then?
She could've easily gain access to poison from his lab to kill Diego.
Now, for her to carry as much as 2 teaspoons of the poison, she'd need
some sort of container. However, no container was found on her that
day. You insist that she must have disposed the container, somehow.
The judge will now ask you for some evidence to show that Dahlia has
indeed disposed the container. This should be easy. Simply present her
present (heh) - there's a bottle in the middle of the pendant. This
should be the "container" used for carrying the poison. It was the
reason why she handed it over to Phoenix, while disguising it as a
"symbol of love".
I'll leave it to you to read the following chunks of text, which
explain Dahlia's evil plans. It's very much predictable, and shouldn't
come as a surprise if you've been paying attention to the details of
the case so far. You'll soon need to convince Phoenix that Dahlia
wasn't in love with him at all. Select "because of that necklace" to
proceed.
The truth hurts, and Phoenix ends up running out of the courtroom
while knocking you down in the process. As the bailiff goes after him,
you find that the necklace has gone missing. It seems that Phoenix has
stolen it from you as he slammed into you earlier.
The bailiff soon reinstalls Phoenix back to the defendant's seat. When
asked about the necklace, he amazingly replies that he has eaten it by
crunching the pendant into pieces with his teeth, duh!
You now demand the trial to be discontinued, out of concern for him.
If he did eat the pendant as he so claimed, he could've been poisoned
by any remaining traces of the poison housed earlier in the bottle.
This is when Payne argues that since Phoenix looks ok, there must be
no poison in the bottle.
It looks like your case will be thrown out for a lack of evidence,
again. Phoenix then unveils another revelation - on that day that he
met Doug, the latter revealed that someone has stolen a poison sample
from his lab. Furthermore, a drug sample was also stolen about eight
months ago. A certain "she" was at the lab on both occasions, so Doug
could only suspect that she was the culprit of both thefts.
What follows from Phoenix is of extreme importance. After he pushed
Doug, he got worried and returned to the scene. It was then that she
found Dahlia crouching next to his body. She has specifically told him
not to tell anyone about this though.
Continue with the conversations, and you'll raise a doubt about Doug's
allegations. If Dahlia had stolen poison the day before Doug's death,
who was she planning to kill? The judge then asks for the identity of
her intended victim.
Present Phoenix's profile to proceed - she was planning to kill our
beloved hero so as to retrieve the necklace!
More predictable explanations, so just read through them as Dahlia's
evil nature continues to be revealed. Eventually, you'll be asked to
provide a decisive evidence to convict Dahlia. Now, you only get one
chance to get this right, or it's game over. It's time to present the
killer evidence...
... "Coldkiller X"!
The bottle of medicine was lost when Phoenix was lunching with Dahlia.
If she was planning to murder him, which better place to hide the
poison than his medicine bottle?
You further explain that after pushing Doug, Phoenix left the scene.
Dahlia, who was nearby, appeared with the bottle of poisoned medicine.
Her plan was to kill Phoenix, but upon hearing Doug's accusation of
her, she decided to silent the latter instead. She was faced with an
immediate problem though. Phoenix returned to the scene soon, and some
students began to show up due to the blackout. Dahlia was obviously
concerned, since she was still holding the bottle of poison. So, in
her haste, she planted it into Doug's hand.
This is more or less the end of Dahlia. Continue on, as you witness
Dahlia turning into the Dark Phoenix. She finally admits defeat, but
warns that she'll meet you again. This is the seed for another case in
this game, but we'll come to that later.
During the aftermath of Dahlia's conviction, Payne loses his beloved
hair. Ah, that explains. :)

Date: 4/11
Time: 3:16pm
Location: District Court, Defendant Lobby No. 3
Simply click through the conversations here. There're some references
to a friend that Phoenix wanted to help, whom I think refers to
Miles Edgeworth. There's also some discussions about what a lawyer
really is, which is a tie-in to the theme of final case of Gyakuten
Saiban 2. If you haven't play the earlier games, go play them to find
out more about the above.
Eventually, you'll find that it was actually Phoenix who's recounting
the story of how Mia saved him five years ago. Take note when he says
that some forgotten memories are surfacing again - a picture of Dahlia
accompanies this sentence.
Looks like you've not seen the last of her yet, no.

5. EPISODE 2: THE STOLEN TURNABOUT [ PW3501 ]
======================================================================
----------------------------------------------------------------------
BACKGROUND [ PW3502 ]
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This case is based on a popular Japanese detective story phenomenon,
that of a clever and cocky thief who continuously outwits those who're
after him. Kaitou Kido from Detective Conan (ie. Case Closed) is one
such example. It's no surprise, therefore, to find our good friend
Detective Dick Gumshoe falling prey to the mysterious "Mask*DeMasque".
Damn, even the thief flying off into the night with the moon as a
background looks suspiciously familiar.
