![](http://lpix.org/2376669/Phoenix_FPV.png): Frankly, there are still a lot of… gray areas.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2571494/Ema_Thinking.png): Or rather, the whole thing is one big gray area…  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2571506/Lana_Normal.png): Don’t worry about me, no matter what the outcome.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2571887/Lana_Sideglance.png): I’m ready to accept my fate.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2571401/Ema_Focused.png): I believe in you, sis.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2571887/Lana_Sideglance.png): Mr. Wright, let me offer you a word of advice.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2376669/Phoenix_FPV.png): Yes?  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2571887/Lana_Sideglance.png): A defense attorney should  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2571885/Lana_Stern.png): never “believe” their client.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2571406/Ema_Shock.png): …!  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2571885/Lana_Stern.png): The defendant is called to trial because they are suspected of wrongdoing!  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2571506/Lana_Normal.png): Never forget that.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2376669/Phoenix_FPV.png): Ms. Skye, you… You remind me a lot of Mia. But there is one decisive difference between you and her.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2571506/Lana_Normal.png): And that is?  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2376669/Phoenix_FPV.png): You’re not a defense attorney.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2572219/Lana_Surprise.png): …  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2571887/Lana_Sideglance.png): I believe it’s almost time for the trial.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2571506/Lana_Normal.png): Good luck, Mr. Wright.

![](http://lpix.org/2591013/PWimage3.png)

![](http://lpix.org/2376669/Phoenix_FPV.png): (No one’s going to bail me out this time…)

![](http://lpix.org/2591015/PWanimation1.gif)

![](http://lpix.org/2376669/Phoenix_FPV.png): (I’ll be alone in there… So I have to discover the truth all by myself!)

![](http://lpix.org/2591016/PWimage4.png)

![](http://lpix.org/2591017/PWimage5.png)

[![](http://tindeck.com/image/gwgxk/stats.png)](http://tindeck.com/listen/gwgxk)

![](http://lpix.org/2376736/Judge_Normal.png): The court is now in session for the trial of Ms. Lana Skye.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2376735/Phoenix_Normal.png): The defense is ready, Your Honor.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2386822/Edgeworth_Normal.png): The prosecution has been ready for a while, Your Honor.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2376735/Phoenix_Normal.png): i[/i]

![](http://lpix.org/2591105/PWimage6.png)

![](http://lpix.org/2387552/Edgeworth_Curious.png): I hope that personal feelings will not be a part of the proceedings today, Mr. Wright.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2376735/Phoenix_Normal.png): …!  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2387552/Edgeworth_Curious.png): I will choose the path I think is right, regardless of what those around me might say.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2386822/Edgeworth_Normal.png): The judgment to be made here is in our hands, not those of anyone else.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2376734/Judge_Angry.png): Very well, Mr. Edgeworth, your opening statement please.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2386822/Edgeworth_Normal.png): Chief Prosecutor Lana Skye has committed an unpardonable crime.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2387548/Edgeworth_Pointing.png): Not only this, but she was rash enough to commit it in the Prosecutor’s Office lot!

![](http://lpix.org/2591108/PWimage7.png)

![](http://lpix.org/2591109/PWimage8.png)

![](http://lpix.org/2387548/Edgeworth_Pointing.png): However, she will now pay for her rashness with her life. There was a witness to her crime…  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2387503/Edgeworth_Sly.png): A “professional” witness!

![](http://lpix.org/2379348/PWanimation6.gif)

![](http://lpix.org/2376734/Judge_Angry.png): Well then, call your first witness, Mr. Edgeworth!  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2386822/Edgeworth_Normal.png): The prosecution calls its first witness, Ms. Angel Starr, to the stand.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2376749/Phoenix_Thinking.png): (The “Cough-up Queen”…?)

![](http://lpix.org/2591111/PWimage9.png)

![](http://lpix.org/2377042/Judge_Shock.png): Hmm? Haven’t I seen you somewhere…?

[![](http://tindeck.com/image/wjkyl/stats.png)](http://tindeck.com/listen/wjkyl)

![](http://lpix.org/2591115/PWanimation3.gif)

![](http://lpix.org/2377042/Judge_Shock.png): Ho ho! Caviar! I’ve never eaten caviar before!  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2377045/Phoenix_Nervous.png): (The judge is really wolfing it down…)

![](http://lpix.org/2591116/PWimage10.png)

![](http://lpix.org/2377045/Phoenix_Nervous.png): Uh… thanks.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2386822/Edgeworth_Normal.png): Will the witness state her name and profession?

![](http://lpix.org/2591117/PWimage11.png)

![](http://lpix.org/2387552/Edgeworth_Curious.png): It is too early for lunch. Your name and profession, please.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2575513/Angel_Demure.png): …  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2575505/Angel_Normal.png): Well, Your Honor? How does it taste?  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2376733/Judge_Thinking.png): So this is why everyone raves about caviar!  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2377042/Judge_Shock.png): It’s so tasty it hurts!  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2376736/Judge_Normal.png): I always thought caviar would taste like pickled tapioca.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2377045/Phoenix_Nervous.png): (What the heck does pickled tapioca taste like!?)

![](http://lpix.org/2422640/PWanimation6.gif)

![](http://lpix.org/2386837/Edgeworth_Stern.png): Name. Profession. Now.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2575513/Angel_Demure.png): Me? The name is Angel Starr.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2575505/Angel_Normal.png): Don’t go forgetting it. I find myself running Lunchland these days.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2575513/Angel_Demure.png): Is… that what you wanted me to say, Mr. Edgeworth?  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2387552/Edgeworth_Curious.png): Very well, witness. Please describe the incident to us.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2376734/Judge_Angry.png): The prosecution will wait!  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2377042/Judge_Shock.png): I’m not finished eating…  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2377045/Phoenix_Nervous.png): (Hurry it up!)  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2376733/Judge_Thinking.png): Mmmm…  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2376734/Judge_Angry.png): Very well, Mr. Edgeworth. As you know, we usually call on the police to provide a description of the crime…  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2575513/Angel_Demure.png): Your Honor, as Mr. Edgeworth has said to the court…  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2575505/Angel_Normal.png): I am a… “professional.”  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2377042/Judge_Shock.png): Uh… Huh?  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2376734/Judge_Angry.png): What exactly does that mean?  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2386822/Edgeworth_Normal.png): Until two years ago, Ms. Angel Starr was a special investigator with the police. She was a first-rate homicide detective.

![](http://lpix.org/2591123/PWimage12.png)

![](http://lpix.org/2376734/Judge_Angry.png): …  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2377042/Judge_Shock.png): Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-hah! I-I know who you are!!!  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2376734/Judge_Angry.png): Cough-up…!?  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2575513/Angel_Demure.png): Cough-up Queen Angel Starr, Your Honor.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2575505/Angel_Normal.png): Long time no see.

![](http://lpix.org/2379348/PWanimation6.gif)

![](http://lpix.org/2376734/Judge_Angry.png): V-v-very well! Y-you may continue with the description, Ms. Starr!  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2377045/Phoenix_Nervous.png): (Just who is this lady!?)  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2575513/Angel_Demure.png): If I might have the court’s attention over here…

![](http://lpix.org/2591146/PWanimation5.gif)

![](http://lpix.org/2591153/PWanimation6.gif)

![](http://lpix.org/2376736/Judge_Normal.png): I suppose that’s to keep visitors from taking up prosecutor’s spaces, yes.

![](http://lpix.org/2591182/PWanimation7.gif)

![](http://lpix.org/2591183/PWimage14.png)

![](http://lpix.org/2591184/PWimage15.png)

![](http://lpix.org/2376734/Judge_Angry.png): And who was this valiant “witness”…?  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2575505/Angel_Normal.png): Why, it was me, Your Honor.

We get the floor plans seen above added to the Court Record. I forgot to open it up here. Whoops.

![](http://lpix.org/2376734/Judge_Angry.png): Witness, did you see the very moment of the crime?  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2575513/Angel_Demure.png): Of course, Your Honor.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2575505/Angel_Normal.png): Immediately after that, I apprehended the Chief Prosecutor.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2376733/Judge_Thinking.png): Hmm…  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2376736/Judge_Normal.png): It seems rather cut and dry, doesn’t it?  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2376734/Judge_Angry.png): Well, Mr. Wright?  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2377045/Phoenix_Nervous.png): Uh… I can’t agree on principle, Your Honor.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2575513/Angel_Demure.png): It seems that some poor losers are unwilling to accept the truth, Your Honor.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2575505/Angel_Normal.png): Shall I proceed to crush what little hope they have remaining?  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2376734/Judge_Angry.png): If you can… Then give them your worst, Ms. Starr!  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2377045/Phoenix_Nervous.png): (Wait, are they talking about me…!?)

![](http://lpix.org/2591281/PWimage22.png)

![](http://lpix.org/2376733/Judge_Thinking.png): Hmm… Bringing a lunchbox to your boyfriend?  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2376734/Judge_Angry.png): How touching!  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2387552/Edgeworth_Curious.png): Hmph. As you can see…  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2387503/Edgeworth_Sly.png): There is no room for doubt.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2376734/Judge_Angry.png): The key “point” of your testimony seems to be nothing other than…  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2377042/Judge_Shock.png): the point of the knife which you saw being stabbed into Detective Goodman!  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2575505/Angel_Normal.png): So… how does it feel to be so utterly crushed?  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2377045/Phoenix_Nervous.png): I… I’m still thinking about that.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2591282/Ema_Determined.png): I-it’s merely a flesh wound, Mr. Wright!  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2376734/Judge_Angry.png): Very well, Mr. Wright. You may cross-examine the witness.

![](http://lpix.org/2591283/PWimage23.png)

![](http://lpix.org/2592114/PWimage24.png)

[![](http://lpix.org/2387375/Hold_It.gif)](http://tindeck.com/listen/jshe)

![](http://lpix.org/2376735/Phoenix_Normal.png): How did you know!?  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2575513/Angel_Demure.png): I respect the prosecutors’ basic abhorrence of crime. Yet their methods are ugly and twisted.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2575505/Angel_Normal.png): Twisted methods will always lead to tragedy.

![](http://lpix.org/2422077/PWanimation13.gif)

![](http://lpix.org/2387503/Edgeworth_Sly.png): The lunchlady’s uninformed opinion is duly noted.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2575505/Angel_Normal.png): Given that they are used to erasing inconvenient evidence at their whim…

![](http://lpix.org/2592124/PWanimation8.gif)

![](http://lpix.org/2575520/Angel_Nasty.png): Killing off a detective that knew too much is merely an extension of that.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2387552/Edgeworth_Curious.png): …  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2592129/Ema_Thoughtful.png): Ms. Starr… do you have something personal against prosecutors?  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2575505/Angel_Normal.png): I felt that I had found my dream job when I became an investigator…  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2575513/Angel_Demure.png): And if I hadn’t been laid off by those prosecutors over there, I’d still be one.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2376735/Phoenix_Normal.png): Laid off…?  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2376749/Phoenix_Thinking.png): (She was fired…)  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2575513/Angel_Demure.png): To me, prosecutors are nothing more than worms.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2575505/Angel_Normal.png): That said, I am a pro, as you know. My testimony is unbiased… and flawless.

![](http://lpix.org/2448919/PWanimation1.gif)

![](http://lpix.org/2376734/Judge_Angry.png): Very well. You may continue, Ms. Starr.

![](http://lpix.org/2593140/PWimage25.png)

[![](http://lpix.org/2387375/Hold_It.gif)](http://tindeck.com/listen/jshe)

![](http://lpix.org/2376749/Phoenix_Thinking.png): This boyfriend… he’s the detective?  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2575513/Angel_Demure.png): Not that boyfriend. The security guard.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2377042/Judge_Shock.png): Th-“that” boyfriend?  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2376734/Judge_Angry.png): You have… several?  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2575513/Angel_Demure.png): Yes. “This” boyfriend, “that” boyfriend, and “the other” boyfriend. Care to join?  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2575505/Angel_Normal.png): The “yet another” boyfriend position is still open for applicants.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2376736/Judge_Normal.png): …  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2376734/Judge_Angry.png): I-I’ll stick with the lunch, thanks.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2575343/Ema_Study.png): Note to self: the judge had to think before replying.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2575505/Angel_Normal.png): The security guard room is in the lot, in A Block.

![](http://i.imgur.com/WMmxJtV.gif)

![](http://lpix.org/2376669/Phoenix_FPV.png): (That would be the room with the “SECURITY” sign.)

![](http://lpix.org/2593141/PWimage26.png)

![](http://lpix.org/2575505/Angel_Normal.png): Since I’m a visitor now, I parked in B Block.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2592129/Ema_Thoughtful.png): So… she was in B Block when she witnessed the crime.

![](http://lpix.org/2593142/PWimage27.png)

[![](http://lpix.org/2387375/Hold_It.gif)](http://tindeck.com/listen/jshe)

![](http://lpix.org/2377200/Phoenix_Intense.png): You “sensed” something? So, you’re saying you had a premonition of the murder?  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2575513/Angel_Demure.png): It felt like… how would you say… Oh yes…  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2575505/Angel_Normal.png): It was like the feeling you get when you view a pumpkin chock full of seeds!  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2376736/Judge_Normal.png): I have no idea what that means.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2376749/Phoenix_Thinking.png): Speaking of a “detective’s instincts”…

![](http://lpix.org/2593143/PWimage28.png)

![](http://lpix.org/2575513/Angel_Demure.png): Yes, well, he was like a young cheese.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2377042/Judge_Shock.png): A… young cheese?  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2575505/Angel_Normal.png): A pale white cheese, not yet tangy with experience on the streets. A greenhorn.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2376733/Judge_Thinking.png): Hmm…  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2376736/Judge_Normal.png): I, of course, am hard, yellowed, sharp as a tack.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2593250/Ema_Hopeful.png): I bet you stink, too.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2575513/Angel_Demure.png): In any case, there, in the lot, I felt something stirring in the back of my mind…

![](http://lpix.org/2593253/PWimage29.png)

[![](http://lpix.org/2387375/Hold_It.gif)](http://tindeck.com/listen/jshe)

![](http://lpix.org/2376749/Phoenix_Thinking.png): By “garish car,” you mean…  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2575505/Angel_Normal.png): Mr. Edgeworth’s car, yes.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2377042/Judge_Shock.png): M-Mr. Edgeworth’s!?

![](http://lpix.org/2593257/PWimage30.png)

![](http://lpix.org/2575505/Angel_Normal.png): Wasn’t it?  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2387552/Edgeworth_Curious.png): …  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2386822/Edgeworth_Normal.png): Indeed, it was.

![](http://lpix.org/2593262/PWanimation10.gif)

![](http://lpix.org/2377042/Judge_Shock.png): Hmm!  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2376736/Judge_Normal.png): What an odd case this is.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2376734/Judge_Angry.png): And the person you saw… you are sure it was the defendant?  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2575505/Angel_Normal.png): I saw her from no further than thirty feet away.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2575520/Angel_Nasty.png): I am certain it was her.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2377200/Phoenix_Intense.png): (If she’s telling the truth, we’re doomed!)

![](http://lpix.org/2593264/PWimage31.png)

![](http://lpix.org/2591282/Ema_Determined.png): Even if we don’t have any proof, we can always complain!

![](http://lpix.org/2422534/PWanimation5.gif)

![](http://lpix.org/2377200/Phoenix_Intense.png): Witness! In your testimony, you clearly stated the following: Prosecutors are nothing more than worms.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2376735/Phoenix_Normal.png): Ergo!  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2377279/Phoenix_Point.png): You are a biased witness!  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2575505/Angel_Normal.png): You might want to keep those silly opinions to YOURSELF in the future, rookie.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2376735/Phoenix_Normal.png): Huh? Rookie?  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2575505/Angel_Normal.png): Unless you’re willing to risk the consequences of doubting me?

![](http://lpix.org/2592124/PWanimation8.gif)

![](http://lpix.org/2593271/PWimage32.png)

![](http://lpix.org/2377042/Judge_Shock.png): That…  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2376734/Judge_Angry.png): That was inspiring!  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2575343/Ema_Study.png): I believe I’ve heard that tag line elsewhere… you could cry plagiarism?

![](http://lpix.org/2593506/PWimage34.png)

![](http://lpix.org/2575513/Angel_Demure.png): The moment I witnessed the crime,  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2575505/Angel_Normal.png): my reflexes took over and snap! I took a picture.

![](http://lpix.org/2593507/PWimage35.png)

![](http://lpix.org/2575513/Angel_Demure.png): You think I’d show it to you, a prosecutor? Think again.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2386837/Edgeworth_Stern.png): …!

 ![](http://lpix.org/2387552/Edgeworth_Curious.png): So, what was the defendant doing at the time?

![](http://lpix.org/2376735/Phoenix_Normal.png): Tell me more about this knife that the suspect was carrying.

![](http://lpix.org/2593512/PWimage40.png)

![](http://lpix.org/2575505/Angel_Normal.png): Is that right, Mr. Edgeworth? It is your knife, after all.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2387552/Edgeworth_Curious.png): Er… Ahem, yes, that’s about right.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2575513/Angel_Demure.png): Prosecutors are, by nature, well-versed in the location of a man’s vital organs.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2575505/Angel_Normal.png): I’m sure it was easier than boiling an egg for my egg salad surprise set.

![](http://lpix.org/2422534/PWanimation5.gif)

![](http://lpix.org/2377200/Phoenix_Intense.png): Y-you can’t testify as to her ability to kill an egg! I mean, a person!  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2575505/Angel_Normal.png): Hmm? Perhaps a chicken salad set would have been a better metaphor?  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2387548/Edgeworth_Pointing.png): So, the defendant was holding a knife. What then?

![](http://lpix.org/2593513/PWimage41.png)

[![](http://lpix.org/2387375/Hold_It.gif)](http://tindeck.com/listen/jshe)

![](http://lpix.org/2377200/Phoenix_Intense.png): Tell the court why you didn’t try to stop this crime!  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2377279/Phoenix_Point.png): You did see her raise the knife to strike, no?  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2377042/Judge_Shock.png): Hmm…  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2376736/Judge_Normal.png): The defense has a point.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2575513/Angel_Demure.png): Unfortunately, by the time I realized what was going on, it was already too late.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2376749/Phoenix_Thinking.png): Too late…?

![](http://lpix.org/2593514/PWimage42.png)

![](http://lpix.org/2377045/Phoenix_Nervous.png): I… I see.

And loop.

![](http://lpix.org/2591282/Ema_Determined.png): I-it’s only a flesh wound, Mr. Wright! We can make it!  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2376669/Phoenix_FPV.png): You said that before. Anything else?  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2592129/Ema_Thoughtful.png): Scientifically speaking…  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2591282/Ema_Determined.png): Ms. Starr’s testimony… is flawless.  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2376669/Phoenix_FPV.png): (Sounds pretty fatal to me.)  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2591282/Ema_Determined.png): Wh-what do we do!? Is this it? Is my sister guilty!?  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2376669/Phoenix_FPV.png): Let’s just keep our heads cool and press the witness a bit, shall we? (For some reason, having her panicking next to me makes me calmer…)  
 ![](http://lpix.org/2591282/Ema_Determined.png): D-don’t smile like that!

It’s been a while since you’ve had to…but can you spot the contradiction?

Next time: More lunch.
