| - Judge: That's enough! This court sees no reason to further prolong the trial. This case is extremely clear. I see no room for misinterpretation of the facts. Judge: The evidence and testimoney we have seen and heard are conclusive! The victim was alone at his table when he drank from that poisoned cup of coffee. Payne: Well... I'd say that pretty much wraps this case up, wouldn't you... ...Mr. Wright!? Judge: This court finds the defendant... Guilty Judge:This court is adjourned! January 6, 10:03 AM Wright & Co. Law Offices Maya: Ahh! The start of the new year always makes me feel like I can take on the whole world! Phoenix: I bet it does, Maya. Maya: So! I've decided that our resolution should be... Zvarri! "Take on the world!" What do you think? Phoenix: Sure, whatever, Maya... But I think maybe you've had more than enough mistletoe cake. Maya: Never! You've got to eat a lot of cake during New Year's! It's practically a tradition! Like watching the fireworks on TV or playing a board Game. ???: HEY, PAL! Phoenix: Detective Gumshoe... Maya: Happy New Year, Detective! Gumshoe: Uh... likewise... NOW LISTEN UP, WRIGHT! I WANNA... Maya: Here's to another fruitful year of lawyer-police cooperation! Gumshoe: Um... Yeah... Me too... ALRIGHT, PAL! YOU'VE GOT SOME EXPLAINING TO... Maya: Have you got a holiday present for me, Detective? Gumshoe: A what? Well I, um... Here, have this. It-It's really nothing much, but... Maya: Yay! Thanks! Gumshoe: LOOK, PAL, WE NEED TO HAVE A TALK. TAKE A SEAT! Maya: Hey! What about Pearly? You haven't forgotten her present, have you? Gumshoe: Ah... N-No... I mean, yes... I mean, no... Are you doing this on purpose? Maya: Ha ha, guess I'm busted. How did you like my first pratical joke of the year? Gumshoe: Very funny, pal. Now let's see how funny you think it is when I show you this! Phoenix: What is it? A magazine? Maya: Hey, I wanna see! "Deadly Poisoning Brings Guilty Verdict. Defense Attorney Wright Trounced." Phoenix: Tr-Trounced!? Let me see that! "The defense attorney gave an almost amateur performance yesterday..." What the heck is this!? Gumshoe: It's a report, pal. About you! Maya: Listen to this! "Mr. Wright must take full responsibility for the ruling in this case." Gumshoe: WELL!? And don't tell me you don't remember anything about it! Phoenix: But I don't remember anything about it! When was that issue from anyway? Gumshoe: Umm... December of last year, which I guess makes it last month. Maya: Which makes it old news, you mean. Phoenix: But I wasn't involved in a poisoning case in December! Maya: Hmm, so what do you think this is all about, Nick? Gumshoe: If it wasn't you, pal, then that leaves only one possibility... Maya: No way. You don't mean... Phoenix: A pho... Maya: A phony Nick!? Phoenix: Gumshoe: SO! What are you gonna do about it, pal!? Phoenix: What do you mean, what am I going to do about it? Maya: Well, it's your fault that the judge found the defendant guilty in this case! Phoenix: My fault!? How do you figure that? Maya: Because THE Phoenix Wright is super famous now! Well, maybe only sort of... Gumshoe: Yeah. See what happens when you hotshots start getting too full of yourselves? Phoenix: Gumshoe: You better make this right, pal. Now! And that means taking the case back to court. Got it? Maya: Sounds like we've got our first case of the new year! Let's tackle it with gusto! Phoenix: I don't know... The judge already issued a guilty verdict once in this case. It's not going to be easy to get it overturned. Maya: ... I guess that New Year's resolution is going to have to wait until next year. Gumshoe: So you're taking the case, right!? Good! I'm gonna head over to the courthouse then. After that, I'll go back to the precinct. Drop by if you need something, OK pal!? Phoenix: January 6 Police Station Criminal Affairs Dept. Maya: It's been ages since we came down to the precinct, huh, Nick? Phoenix: Looks like Gumshoe isn't around. Maya: He's got it easy, leaving everyone else to do the work! Phoenix: No, he's been out there somewhere. My bet is on the courthouse. He's probably trying to arrange the retrial of this case. Maya: Guess that means we should go to the detention center and chat with our killer, huh? Phoenix: After being convicted without a fair trial, I'm not sure killer is the right label... January 6 Detention Center Visitor's Room Maya: This is so nerve-wracking, waiting to meet our new client. I wonder just what kind of person you tricked and got found guilty...? Phoenix: K-Keep it down, Maya! That kind of talk could ruin me! ???: Aaaaaaaah! How could you, Mr. Wright!? How could you do this to me!? They put me in solitary! I haven't been able to stop crying. Phoenix: A-Aren't... you... ???: Yes, I am! I am totally and utterly let down! Maya: Aah! You're... Are you...? ??? Don't pretend you don't know me! It's me, Maggey, remember!? Maggey Byrde! Phoenix: Maggey Byrde... Ah! Phoenix: (Maggey Byrde... She's the policewoman I defended that one time.) (She was accused of murdering her lover. He was a cop, too.) Phoenix: What are you doing in here!? Didn't I get you acquitt-- Byrde: Oh, sure! Very funny! After that fifth-rate defense job, you come in here and start making jokes!? Maya: You better hurry up and tell her what happened, Nick. Byrde: O-Oh... I see... Phoenix: So that's where we stand right now. Maya: I'm sorry you've been caught up in another murder... Byrde: My whole life has been nothing but a whirlwind of bad luck and failures. Phoenix: (I vaguely remember her saying the exact same thing last time...) Byrde: But I don't mind! What's one more disaster in my life? At least now the real Mr. Wright is here with me. I won't let the world keep me down, sir! January 6 Trés Bien Maya: Wow! Look at this place. Phoenix: "Look"? More like "smell"... What is with the suffocating scent of flowers in here...? Then again, girls like that sort of thing, right? Maya: Actually, I'm not all that into it... Phoenix: ... Maya: ... No one's coming to seat us. Maybe there's no one here. Phoenix: Don't be silly, Maya. This is a resturant, and it's open for business. HELLO! ANYONE HERE? ... I don't believe it! There really isn't anyone here! Maya: Perfect! Let's get intrusive! If there's no one here, we can take anything we want! Phoenix: (Yeah, I suppose we can...) January 6 Trés Bien ???: Oh lá lá! Bon-JOUR! Welcome to la Trés Bien! Maya: Oh! Hel... lo... ... Phoenix: (What happened to Maya? She's frozen stiff...) ???: Bienvenue! Welcome to my petite restauranté! Maya: Huh? "Bee Avenue"? ???: Oh, non, my petite chulip! Maya: Huh? Me? ???: Look at z'is face! Like la kitten rejected by its own mother. You are fatigued, non? Alors! You need z'is! An aromatic bath oil mélange of la néroli and la rose. My personal recommendation! Maya: You think I need what...? ???: Oui, oui! Just add a couple of drops of z'is mixture to la bath water, and voilá! It will soothe your body and your mind. It's simply fantastique! Maya: Really? ???: And for la monsieur! Phoenix: Who? Me? ???: Look at z'at face! Like la puppy rejected by life itself! You are fatigued, non? For you, monsieur, I recommend z'is! Oil of bergamot. And maybe a 'int of... Oui, Oui! I will add la peppermint and la clary sage for a fragrance exceptionnel! Such an invigorating recipe will bring out your delicious beauty, monsieur! Phoenix: M-My beauty!? ???: Alors. If you will be seated, I will bring you la special menu of z'e day! Phoenix: Actually, we're not here to eat. We're lawyers. ???: Mais bein sûr! I know z'is already, monsieur. You are la Phoenix Wright, non? Phoenix: Um, yes... You know me? ???: Mais, oui oui! I never forget a man who flirts wiz me! Especially in court! Maya: I guess he was cross-examined by our mysterious Xin Eohp... Phoenix: It looks like everyone to do with this case knows who "I" am already. Maya: I wonder what sort of impression Xin Eohp's been leaving on people, don't you? Armstrong: Allow me to introduce myself to you again. I am Jean Armstrong. Enchanté! January 6 Vitamin Square Maya: So this is Vitamin Square. Phoenix: Yeah. I see where they get the name from now. The fruits scream "VITAMINS!" at you. Maya: Hey, Nick! That's the guy, right? Isn't it the old man Mr. Armstrong was talking about? Phoenix: That grouchy-looking grandpa? Maya: He's throwing seeds out for the pigeons. Phoenix: Maya, he's not throwing seeds for them, he's throwing seeds AT them! Old Man: ... Phoenix: (Ugh... My grumpiness-threat level has just been raised to red...) January 6 Detention Center Visitor's Room Phoenix: Looks like they have Maggey in questioning. I guess I've asked her pretty much everything... I'll come back if there's anything else I need to ask her later. January 6 Police Station Criminal Affairs Dept. Gumshoe: Well, pal!? Have you found the evidence yet!? The one that's gonna find her innocent!? Phoenix: Um, no. Not yet. We've only just started our investigation. Gunshoe: Well, whatever you need to know, I'll give you the dirt on it. I'm putting off all my other cases for now, pal! Phoenix: (Gumshoe's really fired up about this...) Gumshoe: Oh, yeah! One more thing! The retrial's been approved. Court's sitting at 10 AM tomorrow. And Godot's gonna be the prosecutor... Phoenix: (Oh. ... Him.) Gumshoe: Now, listen up, pal! If Maggey's found guilty again... Phoenix: Y-Yes...? Gumshoe: Um... I'll... I'll make sure you get locked up good for it, got it!? January 6 Wright & Co. Law Offices Phoenix: Poor Maya. It looks like Mr. Armstrong's really taken a shine to her. I suppose I'll just have to let her work at the restaurant for a while. I'll go pick her up from Trés Bien once things have cooled off. January 6 Trés Bien Phoenix: The scent of flours sure is strong. It's almost making me dizzy... Oh, um... Hello. (Who was that just now? A customer?) (She had sort of a dark aura about her...) ???: Ah! Welcome! Bee avenue! Phoenix: (Wow. What a cute voice.) Maya: Oh, it's just you, Nick. Phoenix: M-Maya! Maya: Well? How do I look? Phoenix: ... Maybe you should quit being a spirit medium... Maya: Maybe. But it's kind of boring being a waitress. I mean, you're my first ever customer. Phoenix: (Then who was that woman I just saw?) Maya: Oh, oh! Since you're here, you might as well have something to eat! Phoenix: ... I am kind of hungry, actually.
