01x04 - Turnabout Sisters – Last Trial

Post by bunniefuu »

PW:The one who took Mia's life was Redd White, president of Bluecorp.

PW:I barged into his office for a face-to-face confrontation.

PW:But instead, I ended up getting arrested and accused of Mia's m*rder.

Show,OP Title:Ace Attorney

Sign:April , : AM District Court

- margin,M:You don't have a lawyer, Mr. Lawyer?!

Title:Turnabout Sisters - Last Trial

- margin,PW:White must've thrown his weight around.

PW:Anyway, court will be in session soon.

M:B-But...

PW:It's okay. I've got an idea.

PW:One way or another, this case will be decided today.

M:Yeah.

Sign:April , AM District Court — Courtroom No.

J:Well, then.

J:Since court was adjourned yesterday,

J:it seems things have drastically changed due to the prosecution's findings.

J:Correct?

ME:We believed the victim was m*rder*d by her sister Maya and indicted her.

ME:But yesterday's emergence of a new witness and new evidence

ME:highlights the one we believe to be the true culprit!

ME:The suspect is Phoenix Wright,

ME:the attorney standing over there.

J:This is truly shocking.

J:The original suspect's attorney was the real culprit all along?

ME:While it may be unprecedented, the prosecution seeks to prove the guilt

ME:of Phoenix Wright, the defense attorney.

J:But then...

J:Who, exactly, will defend him?

PW:Don't worry.

PW:I will defend myself.

:Wh-What?

PW:Your Honor, the defense, Phoenix Wright, is ready!

ME:Nice. That's the way.

J:You may begin, Mr. Edgeworth.

ME:Without any further ado,

ME:let the witness who saw Phoenix Wright commit the m*rder take the stand!

Sign:Bluecorp President — Redd White

RW:My name is Redd White. But my friends call me Blanco Nino.

RW:I am the CEO, or to use a more common term, the President, of Bluecorp.

ME:Allow me to ask you this first:

ME:have you ever visited the Fey & Co. Law Offices, the scene of the crime?

RW:That would be a negatory! No, I have not.

ME:The night of the m*rder, you were at the Gatewater Hotel.

ME:Is that correct?

RW:Yes.

ME:And you witnessed the m*rder from there?

RW:Uh-huh. I see you've done your homework.

PW:Wait a second!

RW:What is it, Mister Criminal?

PW:Yesterday's witness, Ms. April May, was in the same room that night.

RW:Oh, Miss Wiretapper?

PW:She didn't say a word about seeing me at the crime scene!

RW:Well, she's one lying miss...

RW:That's why I'm here to reveal the truth, Mister m*rder*r.

J:You may begin your testimony.

RW:Okay!

RW:I hope you've made your peace, Mister Spiky Criminal.

PW:Having spiky hair isn't a crime.

Ma:Let's shut that smirky, shiny scumbag up!

Testimony,Sign:Witness Testimony

RW:Let's see.

:It was about : PM, I believe.

TestimonyOrange,Sign:Testimony

:I was perusifying... "reading" some papers by the window.

:Then I heard a bedlam coming from outside!

:Crash!

- flashback:,What?

- flashback:,What's going on?

RW:It was then I saw him: a spiky-haired man attacking a woman with long hair!

AM:What was that noise?

RW:Terrible impaction!

RW:Then it was all over.

RW:My God!

RW:I could never mistake that spiky hair.

Ma:No... That can't be true!

Ma:I mean—

J:That certainly was conclusive testimony.

PW:It's almost like they're reading off a script.

PW:Everything's proceeding too smoothly toward my conviction.

J:Now, defense, your cross-examination.

PW:Yes, Your Honor.

Testimony,Sign:Cross-Examination

PW:Um, are you sure about the time?

RW:I am always abso-posi-lutely perfect.

RW:At PM, I was startled by hearing that thing fall

RW:and looked at the window across the way.

PW:You heard "that thing fall"? What thing?

RW:Um... Right, the glass light stand!

RW:You compendrestand?

PW:Yeah, it does seem to have fallen over.

ME:Then his testimony contains no contradiction.

Ma:Wait...

Ma:That's odd!

Ma:If he heard it fall and only then looked at the window,

Ma:he couldn't have known what it was!

Ma:It broke into pieces when it fell!

PW:Then how did he know about the light stand?

PW:He said he'd never visited the crime scene.

RW:R-R-Remove your impertinent gazes from me!

RW:It was visible through the hotel window.

RW:I saw it before it fell over!

ME:So there are no contradictions, after all.

PW:Objection!

Objection,Sign:Objection!

RW:What is the problemo?

PW:The big problemo is that your testimony contains a total contradiction!

RW:S-Say what?

PW:Look at this.

PW:If you were to look at the office from the hotel window,

SignA,Sign:Body

PW:this is the area you would be able to see.

PW:Well?

PW:Note that the stand is not within the visible area!

PW:On the night of the m*rder, the light stand was only visible from here,

PW:inside the Fey & Co. Law Offices!

PW:That means you were at the scene of the crime when the stand fell...

PW:When the m*rder took place!

RW:What?!

PW:There is only one conclusion to be drawn from this, Mr. White!

PW:You saw the light stand fall when you struck the victim with the m*rder weapon.

PW:You are the one who k*lled Mia Fey.

PW:The true culprit!

PW:You did it, didn't you?

RW:A-Accursed attorney...

Objection,Sign:Hold it!

ME:Hold it!

ME:I think the time has come for you to confess your crime, witness...

RW:Wh-What?

PW:Yes, confess to the m*rder—

ME:What in the world are you talking about?

ME:The crime I advocate confessing to is this.

J:Isn't that the wiretap that was placed on the phone at the crime scene?

PW:Objection!

PW:But April May already admitted to eavesdropping on the calls yesterday!

ME:The question isn't who was listening in,

ME:but when this wiretap was placed in the office and by whom.

ME:Whoever did it sneaked into the Fey & Co. Law Offices beforehand.

ME:And naturally, they would have seen it then...

ME:The glass light stand at the scene.

ME:If that beautiful stand were etched in their memory,

ME:then on the night of the m*rder,

ME:that's the first thing they would think of upon hearing the crash.

RW:Yes! You are most correct, Mister Prosecutor!

RW:I was a bad, bad boy.

RW:I tried to scapegoat that kitten.

J:What do you mean?

RW:I was the one who placed the wiretap!

RW:And to do it, I broke—waltzed— into the Fey & Co. Law Offices.

PW:Y-You what?

RW:I remember it all now.

RW:That was when I saw that beautiful glass stand!

ME:That means there is nothing wrong with the witness knowing about the stand!

ME:Thus, the defense's baseless conjecture has come crashing down...

J:Order! Order in the court!

J:You mean to say that you realized the crash you heard was the light stand falling over

J:because you'd seen it back when you sneaked into the office?

RW:Yes, I do.

RW:That's exactly right, Mister Judge.

ME:He will be tried for that on a later date.

J:I understand.

J:It seems there is no problem with his testimony about the night of the m*rder.

PW:P-Please wait!

J:What now?

PW:The defense isn't done with its cross-examination!

PW:Damn it, I can't let him get away with this!

Ma:Good luck, Mr. Lawyer.

PW:When did you place the wiretap?

RW:I think it was toward the end of March, so around two weeks ago.

PW:Do you have proof?

ME:April May knew the details of the victim's phone conversation,

ME:so it was there before the m*rder.

J:Oh, I see.

PW:Were you really the one who placed the wiretap?

RW:Of course. Ask Miss May about it.

ME:Unidentified fingerprints, several days old, were found at the scene.

ME:They probably belonged to the witness.

PW:Edgeworth was hiding that those fingerprints were discovered.

PW:Why did you tap Mia's phone?!

ME:Objection!

ME:That has no bearing on the current case.

RW:Bluecorp has a responsibility to protect client confidentiality.

PW:I don't have anything to press him on.

Ma:Mr. Lawyer...

ME:I'm afraid that is as far as you go.

ME:Well, you fought honorably.

ME:For a rank amateur...

PW:Is this the end?

J:It seems as though that's that.

RW:The end!

RW:That was fun, Mister Attorney!

PW:The defense ends its cross—

Mi:Wright...

Mi:Wright!

PW:Mia—I mean, Chief?!

Mi:Shh.

Mi:It appears that the desperate desire to save you has awakened her powers.

PW:S-So Maya is channeling you?

Mi:That's right.

Mi:I am Maya.

Mi:But right now, I'm Mia.

Mi:Listen to me, Wright.

Mi:Maya never gave up.

Mi:That's why I'm here.

Mi:So you can't, either.

PW:B-But...

Mi:Listen. You've already won.

Mi:A receipt is among the evidence, right?

Sign:{\c&HDBF&}Maya

PW:The one you wrote "Maya" on?

Mi:Silly.

Mi:White wrote that, obviously!

Mi:Anyway, take another look at that receipt.

PW:What about this receipt?

Sign:Receipt April

Mi:Seems you've got it.

J:With this, the trial is concluded. I shall now declare the verdict—

Objection,Sign:Hold it!

PW:Hold it!

Sign:Maya

PW:One last thing. Please look at this.

Sign:Maya

RW:It's too late.

ME:At this point, that is meaningless.

PW:But this is the back.

ME:What?

Sign:Maya

PW:The front is what matters.

Sign:Receipt April Antique Glass Light Stand

PW:This is a receipt!

RW:A receipt?

RW:For what?

J:Maya

J:"Antique Glass Light Stand"?

PW:The stand that fell over and broke during the m*rder.

PW:Your Honor, what's the date of purchase?

J:Um, April ...

PW:April .

PW:Yes, the day before the m*rder!

ME:Th-The day before?

PW:So, when you allegedly entered Fey & Co. Law Offices at the end of March,

PW:the stand could not have been there!

RW:It can't be...

PW:Lie as much as you want,

PW:but you can't get out of this one!

RW:Wh-What?!

RW:Wh-Wh-What?!

PW:Your Honor,

PW:do you still intend to declare me guilty?!

RW:Never...

RW:I'll never accept this!

RW:The spiky-head there did it—

ME:Hold it!

Objection,Sign:Hold it!

ME:Your Honor,

ME:the prosecution requests the trial be extended one more day.

J:Huh?

ME:We would like to perform another inquiry and submit new evidence.

Mi:Don't let them get away. You must settle things, here and now.

PW:Y-Yeah, but how?

J:Very well.

J:This trial will be extended till tomorrow.

PW:N-No way...

RW:What a farce.

RW:I refuse to testify further.

RW:Goodbye forever, ladies and gentlemen!

Mi:Not so fast!

RW:Wh-What is this?

PW:Is that what Mia was just scribbling?

RW:I-Impossachievable.

RW:What's this list...

Mi:It's a list of businessmen, politicians, and celebrities you've blackmailed.

RW:Why is it here? I disposed of it that night.

Mi:If it were released to the media, I wonder what would happen to you.

Mi:That list is etched in my memory here.

Mi:Want me to read it for you?

Mi:First, the minister of justice—

RW:Stop!

RW:Anything but that, please...

PW:Th-Then...

RW:I confess... I confess.

RW:I... I...

J:I shall hereby hand down the verdicts for Ms. Maya Fey and Mr. Phoenix Wright.

J:Not guilty!

Verdict,Sign:Not Guilty

J:A spirited defense, Mr. Wright.

PW:Oh, I just got lucky.

PW:If you only knew how "spirited" it was.

J:By the way... Ms. Maya Fey?

J:Why do I get the feeling you have a totally different aura about you?

Mi:Just your imagination, Your Honor.

J:I-Is that so?

Mi:My time here is running out.

Mi:Maya's powers are still weak,

Mi:so I can't stay too long.

PW:No! There's still so much to say!

Mi:Wright?

:Can you come to the office tonight? Say, :?

:Thank you so much for fighting to save Maya.

PW:Mia...

Ma:Oh, Mr. Lawyer? I...

PW:It's all right. We won.

Ma:Really? I'm so glad...

PW:Thank you, Maya.

???:You came.

PW:Mia?

???:I was a little worried you might not.

PW:Why wouldn't I?

???:Well, I'm pretty hungry.

???:How about we get some burgers?

PW:M-Maya?!

Ma:You should see your face!

PW:Why are you here?

Ma:Before she disappeared earlier, I heard my sister's voice.

Ma:She told me to come here tonight, at PM.

PW:Oh...

Ma:And one more thing.

PW:What?

Ma:She asked me to take care of you!

PW:Take care of... huh?

Ma:She meant the office! This office!

Ma:Maya Fey, reporting for duty.

PW:The office?

Ma:Wright & Co. Law Offices, huh?

Ma:It's got a good ring to it.

Ma:Oh, and let's keep this casual, okay?

Ma:Pleased to work with you,

Ma:Nick!

PW:"N-Nick"?

Ma:Come on, shake on it.

Mi:Good luck, Wright.

Ma:Let's get going, then!

PW:Where?

Ma:Isn't it obvious? To get burgers!

Ma:There's a great joint just down the street!

Ma:We're celebrating our victory tonight.

Ma:Everything's on you, Nick.

Ma:Burgers! Burgers!
