Ace Attorney Page #4

Synopsis: This movie is based on the second and fourth cases in the popular video game Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney. The plot follows Phoenix Wright, a novice lawyer, who faces off against expert prosecutor Miles Edgeworth, who had a perfect win record. He defends Maya Fey, the sister of his deceased mentor, Mia Fey. The court system of the time dictates that the trial can only convene for a total of three days before a verdict must be reached. In the second case, Miles is charged with murder, and it is up to Phoenix to defend him against the best prosecutor of all time, as well as Miles' mentor, Manfred Von Karma, who has not lost a case in forty years! In order to resolve this case, Phoenix must look beyond the drama of the court room and search for clues left by Mia on a 15 years old case, the DL-6.

no no

there's something

something bigger that we aren't seeing

Robert Hammond, who was murdered

was Yogi's attorney right?

in the DL-6 case...

you..

investigated?

yeah

stop these useless actions

this has nothing to do with you

yes it does

my teacher Mia

kept on investigating that case

Mia and Maya..

the daughters of the spirit medium who was involved in the DL-6 incident.

is that right..

besides Edgeworth

the one who was murdered was your father

I have to investigate this

about Mia Fey

I feel deeply sorry from the bottom of my heart

but just leave me alone

I'm sorry

that's not possible

I owe you a large debt

It was when we were elementary school students

he was nominated for a class trial

lunch money 3800 yen

robbery case

ok everybody

take your seats!

You're the only one!

who sat out on gym class!

I bet it was then

when the lunch money disappeared!

thief

I didn't steal it

liar

Give Terada his lunch money back !

Yeah

give it back!

Thief!

lunch money thief!

Kids!

Okay

everyone be quiet

Mr. Wright is

not such a bad kid!

It's just a bad thought that occurred to you for a second right?

so let's just apologize to everyone

and be forgiven

Objection!

It wasn't you who stole it right?

then you should act more confidently

the only meaningful object in court is evidence

there is no evidence that he did it

therefore teacher,

he is not guilty!

That's right!

He says he didn't do it!

You believed in me then

and saved me

because of that trial

I am here right now

Wright

You're wright that I still lack skill

But

I'll fight with all i've got!

So

I want you to let me defend you

lunch money 3800 yen

Was that why Mr.Wright became an attorney?

You never know what's gonna happen in life huh?

Edgeworth too,

I wonder why he became a prosecutor...

Do as you please

Nobody's going to take it on anyway

I want you to tell me about the case

Tell me as is

Whatever happens

I'll believe you until the end

That night

I was called upon by Robbert Hammond

"I have something to say about the DL-6 incident"

"on the 25th at midnight"

"come to the boat rental place at Lake Gourd Park"

Merry Christmas

I didn't know what had just happened

Is that person that great?

He holds a record of no losses in 40 years

What's more, is that

he works so hard, to the point that it becomes a problem for others

During those 40 years

he only took one vacation

One vacation in 40 years!

Took a single day off 15 years ago and that's it.

Prosecutor von Karma!

Mr. Wright

Yes.. yes!

I'm glad such a great attorney as yourself will be with Edgeworth

Well, let's try our best, fair and square.

Aaaaaand Now

The case of the shooting of an attorney at Gourdy Lake

The case of the shooting of an attorney at Gourdy Lake

The case of the shooting of an attorney at Gourdy Lake

The case of the shooting of an attorney at Gourdy Lake

Court is now in session

The case of the shooting of an attorney at Gourdy Lake

Defense

The defense is ready, your honour

Prosecution

The prosecution is ready

The prosecution has prepared crucial evidence

and a witness

I'll call our first witness to the stand

Witness Lotta Hart

Witness Lotta Hart

It was on the night of Christmas Eve

Witness Lotta Hart

A little past midnight

I was in my car

when I heard this "Pang" sound coming from the lake

I looked out the window and there were two men on a boat.

that's when I heard the sound one more time

and then there was only one man left on the boat

She happened to photograph the situation

This is literally crucial evidence

Defense

your cross examination please

Power within

Mr. Wright!

So...

When you say it was a little after midnight on Christmas eve

If we were to be more exact

it'd be..

Christmas ?

You ask really useless questions

Answer my question please

Yeah it was Christmas

So what?

So what's next?

and...

Are you certain that you saw two men?

Look at the picture

they're right there in the picture!

I'm asking whether you saw it or not

That's..

yeah i saw them

You're just repeating her testimony

Your Honour

I always

think useless questioning counts as contempt of court

therefore

if the newcomer attorney

proceeds further with meaningless comments

I ask that he be removed immediately from the courtroom!

Defense

be careful what you say from now on

Ah... yes

Defense

Anything else?

Yes

Ah Yes well...

Um...

I see there isn't

Then with that

we end the cross examination

Please wait!

Are you an associate of the defendant?

Ms. Hart

Tell us the truth

Witness

The question is out of order!

There's no need to answer that question

Are you sure you saw it properly?

That prosecutor Edgeworth was shooting the gun!

Conjecture is prohibited!

Maya!

Please tell us!

It's a matter of life and death!

What!

Treating me like i'm the bad guy!

I saw him

I'm certain i saw him!

Your Honour

I request

that the defense be held in contempt of court

we ask the defendants to leave the courtroom

Objection!

Unlawful comments were given by her

It was not the defense

The one that should be leaving the court is....

Ok then

There's only the verdict left to be given

then...

Wait!

the witness's exact words a moment ago were

"I'm certain I saw Mr. Edgeworth"

This is new testimony

As you can see

the faces of the men on the boat are not visible at all here

then how did you

clearly see Mr. Edgeworth's face?

I.. saw it with binoculars!

It was extremely foggy!

You were at the lake

to see Gourdy to begin with right?

That's right but...

then you who heard such big noise

at first would have looked for any signs of Gourdy with the binoculars

So!

You would not have given much attention to the boat

I didn't mean to lie

I thought I could be the witness to a murder case

so I was a little bit happy about it

I've made a mistake thinking that I saw the man on the boat

Ah.. i'll be going then!

Gourdy's waiting for me!

I'm sorry

What kind of a hectic trial is this...

Prosecutor von Karma

what is your opinion?

The People that were in the boat were

Prosecutor Edgeworth and

the victim Attorney Hammond.

Only these two.

Since the one that was shot was Attorney hammond,

the shooter can only be

Mr. Edgeworth.

There's no other possibility.

Objection!

There was another

that could have shot Attorney Hammond on the boat

Who could that be?

Attorney Hammond himself.

He could have shot himself with the handgun..

That's absurd

Silence!

This court

cannot ignore a new possibility

the cross examination will continue tomorrow

Court dismissed

Thank you!

anyhow

we delayed the sentencing

No

This much is all i can do

Okay

then lets go investigate

It's a gourd dipper

well it is Gourd Lake

Squid

France~...

There there there

I wonder what it is

Ugh seriously!

WTH!

What.. is that?

Mr. Wright

Let's not go in there

I have a bad feeling about this place

It's the Steel Samurai

Mr. Wright!

Hey

Didn't you get rid of that useless thing?
