Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Walkthrough

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
From here, you can gain access to the caretaker's shack. Go there.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Scene: Caretaker's Shack
Date: December 26
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
An old man appears. It seems that he wasn't very good with his
eyesight. He mistook Maya for someone else. He also wasn't very good
with his hearing as well. He'll go into sleep after a while. Examine
the place for the following observations:
1. Kitchen unit is clean and tidy. Strange because the old man doesn't
look exactly neat.
2. Polly the parrot... examine it and it'll be added to the Court
Record. Appears to say only "hello", but the old man says she can speak
a lot of things if you know the "secret words".
3. A safe above the TV is locked.
Talk to him now about "Polly", and he tells you that he tells the
parrot everything important. Maya tries to ask for the number to the
locked safe, and Polly replies "1228!". You can't open the safe
though!
Now, present your attorney badge to him. Amazingly, he recognizes
it as a lawyer's badge. He promises to help on one condition, and
that is, after the case is over and done with, you'll run the
imaginary pasta shop he's running!
Lie and say you promise.
Present the enlarged photo now. He claims that he saw something. Ask
what he saw. He replies that he forgot the time, but it was dark
outside. He heard a "bang", so he looked outside. Then he heard
another "bang". A men fell down from the boat. A little while later,
this boat returned. A young man walked by his window here, and he
was muttering something to himself. He forgot what did the young man
said, but he'll "remember tomorrow by court time". Duh.
Before you leave, Maya will ask Polly another question. This time,
Polly replies "don't forget DL-6!".
DL-6? Just who is this old man? Your guess is as good as mine.
Go back to the CAD now.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Scene: Police Department, Criminal Affairs
Date: December 26
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Gumshoe says that he has no idea who the old man at the boat rental
shop is. As for the DL-6 Incident, he doesn't know much about it as
well. If you can convince him that this current case is related to
the DL-6 Incident, he'll open up the DL-6 Incident case file for you.
Present the parrot - the parrot knows about the DL-6 Incident. You're
pretty sure that the old man must have taught her that word. It's
likely that the old man was connected to DL-6.
Gumshoe is convinced. He'll give you access to the records room.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Scene: Police Department, Records Room
Date: December 26
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Maya almost immediately finds the files related to DL-6. Go through
all of them:
1. The Case Summary:
--------------------
December 28, 2001. The incident took place in the elevator of the
district court. There was a large earthquake at 2:00pm on that day.
Part of the court building collapsed, and all of the lights went out.
At the time, three people were trapped in the elevator. It took five
hours for them to be rescued. There was a lack of oxygen in the
elevator, and the survivors were unconscious. One of the three in
the elevator had been shot, in the heart.
It appears that Miles Edgeworth is among the survivors, since he
mentioned that he saw his father shot right in front of his own eyes.
That'd also explain why he was afraid of earthquakes.
2. Victim Data:
---------------
Gregory Edgeworth, 35, defense attorney. If were alive today, he'd be
50. He had lost that day's case in court, and got in the elevator with
his son, Miles. From the angle of the bullet and other evidence, it
couldn't have been a suicide. The murder weapon, a pistol, was found
in the elevator. The pistol had been fired two times.
Does it sound very familiar? It's almost like a carbon copy of the
current case, with only the venues different.
3. Suspect Data:
----------------
Yanni Yogi. A clerk in the court. The third person in the elevator.
He was oxygen deprived, so much so that he had brain damage. He lost
all memory of being in the elevator. After he was declared innocent,
he disappeared.
Ok, let me tell you that I think that Yogi is the old man at the boat
rental shop.
After reading, you'll get to take all the relevant information found
in these three files. I think it's good to list down the contents of
what you took now:
1. Case Summary
---------------
12/28, 2001
Elevator, District Court
Air in elevator was oxygen depleted at time of incident. No clues
found at the scene.
2. Victim Data
--------------
Gregory Edgeworth (Age 35)
Defense attorney. Trapped in elevator returning from a lost trial with
son Miles (Age 9). One bullet found in heart. The murder weapon was
fired twice.
3. Suspect Data
---------------
Yanni Yogi (Age 37)
Court bailiff, trapped with the Edgeworths. Memory loss due to oxygen
deprivation. After his arrest, fiancee Polly Jenkins commits suicide.
Ah, looks like I'm right about the old man.
The day will end now. Get ready for another tough time in court
tomorrow.
DAY 3: TRIAL
------------
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Scene: District Court, Courtroom No. 3
Date: December 27, 10:00am
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Mr. von Karma predicts that today's trial will end three minutes from
when it begins. Ya, right.
Karma will introduce the old man at the boat rental shop. Somehow,
his identity wasn't confirmed. Raise an objection, and the judge will
instruct the old man to state his name. The old man will reply that
he's not sure. Karma then steps in and says that the witness does not
remember anything beyond the last several years. As such, he can't
recall his own name. He can still testify because the current case
happened just a few days ago.
The judge will allow the old man to testify now.
OLD MAN'S TESTIMONY 1
---------------------
It was the night of the 24th, just after midnight. The old man was in
the boat rental shop. He heard a "bang". When he looked out of the
window, he saw a boat on the lake. Then he heard another "bang". Just
about then the boat comes back to shore, and a man walks by the
window.
Karma will force the judge to pass his verdict without you cross-
examining. The judge will stupidly ask what do you think. Insist on
cross-examining.
OLD MAN'S CROSS-EXAMINATION 1
-----------------------------
Press the old man when he talks about the man by his window. He'll
reveal that it was Edgeworth. Edgeworth was saying: "I can't believe
he's dead." This information will be added to the testimony.
Press and ask whether he's sure. He's dead certain, then he falls and
faints.
Looks like Karma has lured you into a trap. Raise an objection
quickly.
Your objection will be rebutted by Karma, who explains that Edgeworth
could've easily wipe off the prints after he fired.
Raise an objection again - the witness claims that Edgeworth said
"I can't believe he's dead." But if he was telling a lie... no way,
Karma blasts back, and the judge will then pronounced Edgeworth
guilty.
Just when all seems gone, someone just took to the stands. It's Larry!
He mentions that he was at the park on the night of the murder (as
confirmed by an earlier conversation with him about the air tank). He
wasn't sure about the gunshot, but he remembers it today. He heard the
shot. Apparently, Larry was listening to the trial in court earlier,
but realises that something the old man said was different from what he
remembers.
The judge will then give a speech about preventing inaccurate verdict.
He'll rule out his own verdict and give Larry a chance to testify.
Great.
You'll get a five-minute recess now.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Scene: District Court, Defendant Lobby No. 2
Date: December 27, 10:28am
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Quickly go through the conversations and get back to court.
During this conversation, Edgeworth reveals that when Hammond fell into
the lake, he couldn't understand what happened. He saw the pistol on
the floor of the boat, so he picked it up without thinking.
He also reveals that this could be your chance to turning the tides
in your favor. Karma has always been running perfectly prepared
witnesses and evidences, but a last minute witness like Larry could
really upset his plans.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Scene: District Court, Courtroom No. 3
Date: December 27, 10:35am
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Let's get to it.
LARRY'S TESTIMONY 1
-------------------
On the night of the murder, Larry was out in a boat on the lake. He
was looking for something, and he found it. So he quietly slipped the
boat back in at the rental shop dock. As he was just thinking of
going home he heard a "bang". He looked out over the lake, but didn't
notice the boat. After he heard the single gunshot, he went home.
LARRY'S CROSS-EXAMINATION 2
---------------------------
Press him when he says he slipped the boat back and ask what time was
that. He thinks it should be around 12:00am. He wasn't sure though.
When he says he didn't notice the boat, ask him wasn't there a boat on
the lake? He replies that it was really foggy that night, so he wasn't
sure.
Confirm with him whether he only heard one "bang" when he says he went
home. Present Lotta's deposition now - Lotta testified yesteday that
she heard two "bangs". The old man also mentioned the same thing just
earlier. And now, Larry says he's not sure again! He might have
missed the second gunshot because he was listening to his radio on his
headphones.
For all the crap Larry has spouted, the judge will ask whether you
want him to continue. You've no choice, really, so continue.
LARRY'S TESTIMONY 2
-------------------
Larry was lonely on Christmas Eve, being alone, so he was listening to
an all-requests show on the radio. He was listening to it loud, but he
was sure he heard that gunshot. He remembers exactly what the DJ was
saying when he heard it too.
After a superb objection to Karma, you'll explain why Larry could've
heard the gunshot even when he's listening to his radio at a high
volume. This gives you a chance to cross-examine him again.
LARRY'S CROSS-EXAMINATIOn 2
---------------------------
Press and ask Larry what did the DJ say, when he says that he
remembers what the DJ was saying. Karma objects, and the judge will
say that he'll allow this question if you've reasons why you should
care. Select "we should care".
Larry will testify that the DJ said "Hey, it's almost Christmas!" when
he heard the gunshot.
Present Lotta's deposition again at this statement - the DJ said it's
almost Christmas, which means it wasn't 12:00am yet, when Larry heard
the gunshot. This contradicts both the testimonies of Lotta and the
old man.
Karma will now say that this is simply because Larry was mistaken. The
judge will now ask your opinion. Say "Larry's right". You'll need to
prove why, so present the second lake map - the time stamp on Lotta's
second photo reads "December 24, 11:50pm". There's nothing on the lake
in the photo. Moreover, Lotta's camera set to go off in response to
loud noises. If the camera took a photo at 11:50pm, this means that
there was a loud noise at 11:50pm on the lake, which means the gunshot
that Larry heard was indeed before midnight.
Now, Lotta's camera also set off 15 mintues after midnight, which
means that there were two sets of gunshots that night, with a 25
minute interval between them.
Karma objects again - the camera is set to response to loud noises,
but there's no proof that the loud noise at 11:50pm was a gunshot. The
judge will ask whether you can prove that the loud noise at 11:50pm
was a gunshot.
This is when you should present the pistol - both the witnesses who
testified earlier mentioned two gunshots, but the pistol was fired
three times. When was the last shot fired? It's quite clear now that
the "third shot" was in fact the first shot, the one that Larry heard
just before midnight.
Now, you'll need to explain why there were two sets of gunshots.
You'll suddenly remember the case on the Steel Samurai, and realises
that the murderer in this case had the same idea as the murderer in
that case.
Watch the brilliant explanation now - Hammond was killed during the
first shot, 25 minutes before the shot on the lake. You'll then be
asked to explain who were on the boat that night. Select "Edgeworth
and the murderer" - after the murderer killed Hammond at 11:50pm, he
assumed the identity of Hammond and met Edgeworth.
It's likely that Hammond called Edgeworth to the lake that night.
Edgeworth didn't know Hammond's face that well, which was why he
didn't suspect anything when the murderer took Hammond's place.
The judge will now ask you what's the name of the murderer. Reply
"you don't know", and you don't know because he didn't tell you. The
murderer is the caretaker of the boat shop, the old man. The real
scene of the crime wasn't on a boat, but in the boat rental shop.
When asked to select the real scene of crime on the touch screen,
point to the shop.
Karma objects again. You'll reply by referring to Larry's testimony.
Larry was searching for his balloon that night. He found it, and
returned the boat. Then, just as he's starting to head for home, he
heard the gunshot - even when he was wearing headphones. The gunshot
must be very close to him then, and where would that be if he had just
returned a boat?
Watch now as you explained what you think was the truth:
1. The caretaker shot Hammond at 11:50pm.
2. The caretaker put on Hammond's coat, and got on the boat with Edgeworth,
and went out to the middle of the lake.
The judge now asks who fired the pistol then. Reply "the boat shop
caretaker".
3. The caretaker fired pistol twice. Both shots missed, on purpose.
Karma nows ask when did he fire twice. Reply "to create a witness".
4. The first shot was for anyone who heard the shot to look at the
lake. Lotta did exactly that after hearing the first shot.
5. After the second shot, the caretaker jumped from the boat himself,
leaving the pistol behind him, to create the impression that one men
on the boat shot the other.
6. The caretaker swam back to his shop, and put Hammond's coat back on
the body, then threw the body into the lake.
The judge will instruct the bailiff to bring out the caretaker.
Meanwhile, while waiting, he'll ask Edgeworth a few questions.
Edgeworth will reveal that he received a letter several days ago that
was signed "Robert Hammond", requesting him to meet at the boat shop
by the lake at midnight on Christmas Eve, stating that he has
something important to discuss with him.
It's now that the bailiff appears and informs the judge that the
caretaker has disappeared.
A search warrant will be issued for his arrest. Meanwhile, the court
will adjorn since the judge can't declare a verdict under these
circumstances. He'll extend the trial until tomorrow.
Hopefully, the police can catch the caretaker. In the mean time, you
live to fight yet another day.

Scene: District Court, Defendant Lobby No. 2
Date: December 27, 1:22pm
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Edgeworth tells you that something has been bothering you for some
time, and he doesn't know whether to tell you. He tells you about a
nightmare he's having, about a memory of a crime that he committed.
Before he says anything, the chapter ends.
DAY 3 - INVESTIGATION
---------------------
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Scene: Wright and Co. Law Offices

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"A memory of murder."
That was what Edgeworth said.
Meanwhile, Larry visits. Talk to him to finally reveal why you
became a defense attorney - something you never told Mia when she
asked.
NOTE: The talk is not exactly important, but it's a nice touch of
story-telling. I won't spoil it for you though. Watch it yourself
when you play the game.
Your Court Record will now be cleaned up. Things like the newspaper
article on Gourdy and Lotta's deposition will be discarded.
Go to the detention center now.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Scene: Detention Center, Visitor's Room
Date: December 27
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Talk to Edgeworth to find out that he became a prosecutor because he
doesn't want to defend criminals. He also reveals that Yanni Yogi
wasn't apprehended because Hammond argued that he hadn't been "of
sound mind" due to oxygen deprivation. He also tells you more about
von Karma.
Go to Gourd Lake entrance now.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Scene: Gourd Lake Park, Entrance
Date: December 27
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You'll find Gumshoe here. He'll run off to find the caretaker, but
he'll tell you that no one will be allowed in the woods today.
Apparently, no one is allowed to camp there, but Lotta did, and the
ranger of the park found out, so he's stopping anyone from going in
now. Looks like Lotta will be in a lotta trouble.
Go the beach then.

Surprisingly, you'll find Grossberg here. He says that if you need any
assistance, you can go to his office. Then he disappears quickly.
Head to the caretaker's shack now - remember that locked safe? With
the caretaker gone, it's the perfect opportunity to open it!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Scene: Caretaker's Shack
Date: December 27
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Examine the safe to open it. The only thing in here is a letter. It
has no names on it, and is written in precise, clear letters:
"Get your revenge on Miles Edgeworth.
This is your last chance. Now is your time to get revenge on the two
men who ruined your life..."
(The rest of the letter describes the murder plot in detail - killing
Hammond, framing Edgeworth, etc.)
So it seems that the caretaker was merely following instructions? Who
could've written the letter?
Get this letter into the Court Record, then go back to Edgeworth at
the detention center.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Scene: Detention Center, Visitor's Room
Date: December 27
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Present the letter to him, and discuss about it:
1. Two men: Hammond and Edgeworth?
2. Last chance: Statute of limitations on the DL-6 Incident?
Edgeworth then suspects that the old man is Yanni Yogi. Talk to him
about Yogi. He'll tell you how Yogi was found innocent. This will
also open up a conversation about Edgeworth's nightmare. Talk to him
about it as well.
He has been having the same dream almost every night, for 15 years.
It's a dream about the possibility that he actually killed his father
instead.
Now, go to Grossberg. He asked you to, right?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Scene: Grossberg Law Offices
Date: December 27
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Grossberg tells you that it's likely that Edgeworth really killed his
father. Talk to him about Gregory Edgeworth, and he reveals that
Gregory is very disapproving of von Karma's techniques. Gregory tried
to call attention to von Karma's techniques, but died before he could
do so.
Talk about the spirit medium, and Grossberg says perhaps the person
who lied was Gregory's ghost, because he didn't want to implicate his
son.
NOTE: Seriously, a load of bullshit.
Present the letter from the caretaker's safe to Grossberg, and find
out a possibility about why Hammond was also killed. Then, he
suddenly remembers that he has seen the handwriting on this letter
before. When he asks you who could've written this, select "Manfred
von Karma".
You're right! Now, talk to him about von Karma. You'll find out about
a case between Gregory Edgeworth and Manfred von Karma. Ask about it.
Grossberg replies that von Karma won, but Gregory accused him of
faulty evidence, and though he lost the trial, the accusation stood.
Karma was penalised, and this was the only penalty that he has
received in his career as a prosecutor. This ruins his obsession on
perfection. He took a vacation after that, which was unusual.
Grossberg then offers to help check the police files for you.
Go to the CAD now.

Surprisingly, von Karma isn't here. Notice, however, that a drawer on
the right is opened. Examine it. It says "Unsolved Cases: Evidence".
You also find that the file for DL-6 is completely empty. It must be
that son of a... von Karma.
It's now that he appears. Talk to him if you want. You'll get nothing
much out of it, only things that you already know.
Present the letter from the safe to him now, and he'll freely admit
that he wrote the letter. He'll then attack Maya and you with a stun
gun, and remove the letter from you. During the melee, Maya managed to
grab an evidence from the DL-6 Incident from von Karma. A bullet, to be
exact:
"Evidence No. 7 - Taken from the heart of Gregory Edgeworth."
This ends the day for you. Save the game.
DAY 4 - TRIAL

successfully arrested the Yogi.

Scene: District Court, Courtroom No. 3
Date: December 28, 10:00am
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ok, the identity of Yogi hasn't exactly been revealed to the court,
so he's still just the old man/ caretaker to them. Remember that
you'll need to first prove his identity.
YOGI'S TESTIMONY 1
------------------
Yogi says he's sorry to leave the court yesterday. He left because he
went to buy some food for Polly, his parrot. He figured he has got
nothing to do with this case anyhow. He'd need a motive, and he
doesn't have one. So, his testimony yesterday stands as is.
YOGI's CROSS-EXAMINATION 1
--------------------------
Press his statements a few times, then when he says he has got nothing
to do with the case, press again. This will eventually to the judge
asking you is it really important to confirm whether Yogi has lost
his memory. You'll reply yes, because Yogi is lying. The judge will
ask you who Yogi really is. Say "Yanni Yogi".
Karma will then ask you to prove it. You'll ask the judge to take
Yogi's fingerprints. Karma then replies that the witness has no
fingerprints! Apparently, Yogi used to work in a chemical plant, and
he burnt his fingers then.
Karma will now sarcastically suggest that you cross-examine the
parrot. Amazingly, you say yes! The most unlikely witness in court
history! When asked whether you really want to do it, say yes, let
the parrot take the stands.
POLLY'S TESTIMONY 1
-------------------
"Hello! Hello! *Squawk!*"
Certainly the most concise testimony you've heard so far.
POLLY'S CROSS-EXAMINATION 1
---------------------------
Press the only statement, then ask Maya to ask Polly a question.
Now, you remember that Polly actually responded to the question
"have we forgotten something" by saying "don't forget DL-6!", but
somehow, if you ask this question, she won't respond the same way
anymore. Perhaps Karma retrained her?
Get Maya to ask Polly what's her name, and she'll reply "Pol-ly!
Pol-ly!" The judge will then ask has this anything to do with her
owner's identity. Say "of course!"
You'll be asked to prove it. Present the DL-6 case file, then select
Select "Suspect Data" - remember on this page, it states that Yogi's
finacee, Polly Jenkins, committed suicide after he was arrested? This
is the link between "Polly" and "Yogi".
One more piece of evidence is needed to fully convince the judge
though.
Get Maya to ask Polly about the safe number. She replies "1228! 1228!"
as usual. The judge will ask you whether this number has something to
do with the caretaker. Say "it does".
You'll be asked to prove it. Present the DL-6 case file again, then
select "Case Summary" - the date on it is 12/28.
The judge will concur that two coincidences at the same time seems
like a pattern to him. He'll summon the caretaker once again.
Cross-Examination of Polly the Parrot: SUCCESS! :)
This time round, Yogi will admit that he's, er, Yogi. In fact, he
looks totally different now. This is the real Yogi. He'll also admit
to killing Hammond, and framing Edgeworth for it. He reveals the plan
to kill Hammond and Edgeworth was sent to him in a package with a
letter and a pistol. He'll eventually be arrested.
Edgeworth will be declared innocent by Karma, for this case. But as
the judge declares him not guilty, he goes and object the judge! In
fact, he now confesses to the murder of his father in the DL-6
Incident!
Karma then takes the opportunity to suggest a trial for the DL-6
Incident, right here, right now. The judge will call for a recess to
think about Karma's proposal.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Scene: District Court, Defendant Lobby No. 2
Date: December 28, 2:24pm
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
As Edgeworth gets ready to be arrested, you assured everyone that
you're now ready to prove that he's innocent, that he didn't kill
his father. The truth, as you mentioned, is quite clearly shown in
the Court Record. I hope you see it.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Scene: District Court, Courtroom No. 3
Date: December 28, 2:30pm
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
So it begins, the case of 15 years ago can finally come to its end.
EDGEWORTH'S TESTIMONY 1
-----------------------
We all know about the earthquake and getting into the elevator, so
we can skip that. Edgeworth then continues that Yogi and his father
started arguing. He then felt something at his feet, so he picked it
up and threw it at Yogi to stop them from fighting. A moment later,
there was a single gunshot, then a scream - a scream that he
remembers until today.
EDGEWORTH'S CROSS-EXAMINATION 1
-------------------------------
When Edgeworth first mentions about the single gunshot, present the
DL-6 case file, then select "Victim Data" - this page says that the
murder weapon was fired twice. The first shot was the accidental
firing when the pistol was thrown by Edgeworth. Who fired the second
shot?
Karma objects, and the judge will now ask you whether you've proof that
the weapon was indeed fired twice on the day. Say "yes", then present
the DL-6 Incident photo. The judge then stupidly asks you how does
the photo prove that two shots were fired, even though it was clear
as daylight.
Point to the bullet hole on the elevator door - this is the shot
that misfired from Edgeworth's throw. The shot on Gregory's body is
the second shot, the killer shot.
Now, Karma will object again, and will refer you to the DL-6 Incident
case file again. It mentions on the "Case Summary" page that "not a
single clue was found on the scene". Now, if the pistol had indeed
fired two shots, where was the other bullet? Because it's "unlikely"
for the police to miss this other bullet, the judge will discount
your defense.
He'll now be ready to declare the guilty verdict now. He'll ask
whether you've anything to add. Raise an objection, and get totally
tongue-tied.
It's now that Mia returns. She tells you that the second bullet
must have exist, but someone took it. This is what you'll tell the
judge.
After some exchanges, the judge will then ask you is there really a
need for him to search for the bullet. Reply "the murderer didn't
need it". Mia comes in again. She asks you to "think crazy", to
"think why the bullet HAD to be taken away" - yes, what if the
murderer has no choice but to take the bullet away? For example, in
a situation like, he was shot?
You'll tell the judge that the murderer HAD to take that bullet, as
he was shot. Since Edgeworth and Yogi were both unharmed, this leaves
the possibility of someone from outside the elevator being the
murderer.
Maya then remembers what Grossberg told you yesterday, that after
being penalised for falty evidences, Karma took a long break. Why'd
he do that? What if... just what if, he was taking the time off to
heal a wound... the wound caused by a bullet shot?
This could mean that Karma is the murderer! He has the motive. He was
near the scene of crime. He also have the motive to kill Edgeworth
since he hated the Edgeworths. He could even have taken Edgeworth
as his student only to plan for this day!
The judge now asks you to give the name of your suspect. Say it, say
it now.
Karma will obviously deny it. In fact, he'll eagerly suggest to get
his doctor to testify in court. Edgeworth then tells you that it's
useless to do so, since Karma will never subject himself to a weakness
that's so easy to engage. The likelihood is that the bullet is still
in his body!
Now, Karma will saracastically challenge you to prove that he was
shot. Select "show evidence", and present the test-and-trusted metal
detector! The only way to find out whether Karma has a bullet inside
him is to use the metal detector on him.
He'll vehemently refuse, but the judge will be on your side. The
detector will go beeping on his right shoulder.
NOTE: Amazing, isn't it? Gumshoe's detector saves the day!
Karma won't give up though, and will claim that the bullet was already
there before the DL-6 Incident. He'll then asks you whether you can
prove that the bullet in Karma's body was shot on the same day as the
DL-6 Incident.
Present the DL-6 bullet to nail him - the bullet was preserved nicely,
with all the ballistic markings intact. Remember ballistic markings?
It was mentioned two days ago in the trial. They're fingerprints of a
weapon. All bullets fired from a gun are marked with that weapon's
unique pattern. By examining the markings, you can tell which weapon
fired the bullet. If the ballistic markings on this bullet is the same
as the ones found on Karma's shoulders, it'll prove that they're
fired from the same gun.
It's now that Karma lets out a scream - the scream that has been
haunting Edgeworth for 15 years. After Edgeworth threw the gun, it
misfired. The bullet pierced through the elevator door and hit Karma,
who just happened to be standing outside, on his right shoulder. He
let out a scream before the door opened. When it did, Karma saw that
the Edgeworths and Yogi were already fainted. He felt it was his
destiny - his hatred for Gregory Edgeworth, who ruined his otherwise
perfect record, prompted him to shoot.
This, is the truth.
Watch Karma bangs his head on the wall and laugh, if you want. The
toughest case you've encountered so far has finally drawn its curtains.

You wake up to find that Maya has left. You'll rush to the train
station for her, but she has pretty much made up her mind. One reason
for her departure is that she thinks that she's useless. Present the
DL-6 bullet to her to tell her she's not - she grabbed it from Karma
in the records room, remember?
She's much happier after that, but she still wants to continue her
training as a spirit medium. She promises to return as soon as she
finishes her training. As you say goodbye to Maya, you also say
goodbye to the novice attorney that you once was. You're now an
Ace Attorney.
This is why this episode is called "Goodbyes".

DAY 1: INVESTIGATION
--------------------
Watch the cut-scene for a series of strange events happening. This
ends when you begin the chapter with a monologue. It has been two
months since Maya left. It has also been two months since you were
involved in any trial, until a girl showed up.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Scene: Wright and Co. Law Offices

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The girl mentions something about her sister's trial being tomorrow.
You aren't exactly interested in taking up any cases now, but the
manner of this girl reminds you of Maya, so you eventually gave in.
She introduces herself as Ema Skye. She's a "scientific investigator",
whatever that is. Talk to her and find out more about her if you
want, then proceed to ask her about scientific investigation. She'll
mention something about a new way to solve crimes, scientifically.
Now, ask about the case.
Apparently, Ema's sister was arrested for stabbing someone with a
knife. A witness claimed to see her do it. Ema is sure that her sister
didn't do it though.
When she arrives at your office, she was looking for Mia, so ask her
about her relation with Mia. It appears that Mia was Ema's sister's
junior in school. Ema also mentions that she doesn't really like her
sister "now", and that her parents were killed in a car accident.
Soap opera stuff.
Go to the detention center now.

Ema's sister isn't a very friendly person though. She also seems to
know you by name, since she heard a lot about you from Mia. She
introduces herself as Lana, and she's the chief prosecutor for the
district.
You begin to wonder: Two sisters, one a lawyer. Such a coincidence
with case two.
Talk to Lana. She mentions she has confessed to the crime, but will
still tell you about the case. The murder happened on February 21, at
5:15pm - the timing was specific because of the witness's deposition.
A witness clearly saw her committing the crime, which happened in
the underground parking lot of the prosecutor's office. The body was
found in the trunk of her subordinate's car. She was arrested on the
spot.
The victim of the case is police detective. Death was due to a loss
of blood, resulting from a single stab wound in the stomach. Death
wasn't immediate, but the wound was fatal. Since the victim was a
detective, the police department will consider it a matter of pride to
apprehend Lana, at any means.
Talk to her about herself, and she'll reveal a wound on her right
hand, apparently sustained in the process of murdering the victim.
At the end of the conversation, she'll still request you to take up
her case, for the sake of appeasing Ema, but she tells you not to
lose too much sleep since she intends to admit her crime in court
anyway.
