Ace Attorney Page #7

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.

Your honour

I'll confess here

no matter how it happened

my Father

the one who murdered Gregory Edgeworth

is me

What are you talking about?

Silence!

About this murder of Attorney Hammond,

Mr. Wright

It is safe to say the charges against Miles Edgeworth are dropped

However,

there has been an important confession regarding

another case

in close relation to this one

We'll have a recess here

and we will continue shortly

cross examining about the DL-6 case

Wright

It's useless

I told you already

This time I will

believe you

until the end

I will prove your innocence

Even if you doubt yourself

It is time

My father, who as trying to destroy evidence -

the handgun

was interrogated by Mr. Yogi

and they got into a fierce physical fight

Stop it-!

That's when something touched my hand

It was

the handgun

Miles

I threw it at him

I just wanted to save my father

The handgun i threw was triggered

and a bullet went piercing through my father

There was a loud scream

I can't forget it

even now

The truth about the case 15 years ago

Has finally been revealed

Objection!

Before the incident

according to the record of the evidence storage room,

the handgun had in its magazine

two bullets

and after the incident

the magazine was empty

so it means the gun was fired

twice

If one shot

was the time Edgeworth threw the hand gun

then who shot

the remaining bullet?

Objection!

The remaining bullet?

There is no such thing!

If two bullets

were shot

They would have been found at the scene

Were they found?

Yes

There was only one bullet found at the scene

Please wait!

For... for example

the second bullet was..uh..

That's it!

How does "someone took it' sound?

How's what sound?

But who?

That's of course

The.. the criminal

The criminal you speak of

Must not be very intelligent

Just like like you

Mr. Wright

It's okay

You

are not wrong

Just one more step forward...

that's it

reverse the concept

Reverse the idea?

What...

What is it?

Reverse ?

Defense?

The criminal

Had no intention of taking the bullet...

Ah..

No, that's not it

What if he had no choice but to take it?

"Had no choice?"

What does that mean?

For example

The criminal was shot

If he was shot, then he has no choice but to take it with him

But there were no injuries

on Miles Edgeworth or Yanni Yogi

who were in the evidence storage room..

So then there had to have been

one more

person in the rroom

Yogi

I really didn't do it!

Yanni

There's a dark secret behind it all

Father...

It is hard evidence

supporting the violation of the bayonet law

There's one more person, other than Miles Edgeworth or Yanni Yogi

who is related to the DL-6 case

That person is

the one who fought the victim, Gregory Attorney Edgeworth

in court!

It is...

Prosecutor von Karma

It's you!

Silence!

Ah.. well

Prosecutor von Karma?

A workaholic like yourself, in 40 years

you have only once

taken a vacation

Wasn't it because

you were shot then?

If we find the doctor who treated the injury...

There's no use

Prosecutor Von Karma is a person who always aims for perfection

A record of treatment

Such evidence would not be allowed to exist

I feel no need to make a counter argument against this

but let me make this clear to you

there are no treatment records

or doctor witnesses

Th..then!

you went and

dug out the bullets with your hand...

Does that sound similar to what happened?

That would hurt Mr. Wright! It's impossible!

Then what happened to the bullet?!

What is it?

Prosecutor von Karma

Did not get treated by a doctor

Then maybe..

the bullet may still be left "there"

How stupid..

What..

What the hell are you talking about

Whether it's a stupid idea or not

It can be easily determined

Butz!

Lend me that

That's enough

Just give it!

Prosecutor von Karma

I will check your body with this metal detector

I refuse!

What?

Your Honour

Checking is necessary to find out the truth!

To refuse is like

admitting that he has a bullet in his body

Defense

I permit the use of the metal detector.

What is this?

Clearly

Clearly there IS a bullet stuck in my body

However this

has nothing to do with the DL-6 case

Evidence is everything in a courtroom

If you think i'm the criminal

present a piece of evidence

that connects this bullet in my shoulder to the DL-6 case

I request an inspection of the handgun used in the DL-6 case

If we were to combine it with the bullet's ballistic markings left in prosecutor von Karma's body

it would be a complete match

Officer!

Get to it right now!

The handgun would be

in the evidence storage room

Wright

that is amazing

Your Honour!

The handgun is nowhere to be found!

What?

Well isn't that too bad for you attorney?

There is no way to prove it like this

I came all this way...

Mia...

I'm sorry

That's it!

This is it!

Mia

the evidence Mia got risking her life

she hid it here...!

Take that!

This is the bullet taken out of the body of Gregory Edgeworth

With this

we have no need for the handgun

If it matches the ballistic markings of the bullet in your body

That is

the conclusive evidence!

I admit

I was in the evidence storage room when it happend

and I was shot

But,

that's it

Why is it that you accuse me of shooting the attorney?

There is no reason?

There was a reason

to silence Gregory Edgeworth!

He found out about it...

no losses in 40 years

the most powerful prosecutor

about the secret behind it all..

the one taking illegal action

was not Attorney Edgeworth

Prosecutor von Karma

It was you!

Don't make me repeat the same words

over and over again !!

Evidence is everything!!

This bullet!!

will explain everything

The handgun used in the DL-6 incident.

Was, when you think about it,

presented by the prosecution at the trial

between Attorney Edgeworth and Prosecutor von Karma

Prosecutor von Karma

combined the bullet found at the scene

and the handgun's ballistic markings

with matches on both sides

supported the defendant's violation of the bayonet law

the ballistic marking data at the time

is this

Mia Fey

Attorney

left it in the data

Now

I'm about to reenact 15 years ago

But

the handgun present then

was disposed of by someone

so instead

we will use this bullet that was shot from the very handgun

Of course

just like 15 years ago

it will be a 100% match on both sides

It'll be a 100% match on both sides right?

Judge

Stop

Stop it right now!!

Reading...

match rate 0%

Prosecutor von Karma

This is

the evidence

that conclusively proves your dishonesty

Miles

a perfect record over 40 years

revealed to be a fraud

To keep it a secret you

murdered Gregory Edgeworth

and!

put numerous people in misery!!

your effing face

resembles him so much

when you don't know anything...

so young

just a young little attorney

Do you know why you get to live everyday so peacefullly

When all you do is act

and show off how righteous you all are?
