"OBJECTION!" his voice rang loudly and clearly. "The defense does not have any evidence to support that claim!"

"OBJECTION!" Phoenix replied, automatically. "How do you know we don't?"

"OBJECTION! LESS TALK, MORE EVIDENCE!" Edgeworth said.

"OBJECTION! Uhm…uhh…." Phoenix looked through the Court Record and presented the coat of the defendant's.

"It's the defendant's coat." Judge Entoome said. "Relevance?"

"This coat indicates the murder was done with the left hand…"

"…and?" Edgeworth murmured.

"THE DEFENDANT IS A RIGHTY, NOT A LEFTY!" Edgeworth went into that usual rage and starting banging the desk that stood in front of him. The witness also was in a rage.

"NONONONO, ZAT EEZ NO EVIDENCE OR WHATEVUH ZAT WERD EEZ!! EET UNLY EENDITCATES! VAI SHUD VE BELIEVE ZOO! VOT ARR YUH CLAIMINGGGGGGGGG!" And then, he fainted on the spot.

"The prosecution requests an immediate recess!!" Edgeworth shouted.

"A 20 minutes recess is permitted! Mr. Edgeworth?" Judge Entoome said.

"Y-yes…?" he replied.

"NEXT TIME MAKE SURE YOUR DUMB WITNESSES AREN'T SO DUMBFOUNDEDLY DUMB!!" she screamed, throwing amounts of papers and gavels at him.

"Yes, Your-WOAH…" he said, dodging a gavel. "…Honor."

In the lobby, Maya ran up to Phoenix.

"NICE GOING, NICK!" she said, very excitedly.

"Th-thanks…" he said, glancing over at Edgeworth. Pearl, or Pearls as Phoenix called her, came jumping over.

"HEY, PEARLY!" Maya screamed. "NICK JUST BAMBOOMED THAT CASE!" Phoenix then could feel his face turning red.

"MR. NICK!" Pearls said, with her hands on her hips. "IT IS TRUE! YOU DO LOOOOVE MYSTIC MAYA!"

"Uhh…uhm….th-that's...per-" he stuttered.

"MYSTIC MAYA AND MR. NICK, SITTING IN A TRE-" she started singing.

"STOPEMBARRASINGMEPEARLY!STOPIT!" Maya interrupted.

"Well, I'm only stating the truth! YOU KNOW IT'S TRUE!" she said, prancing over to Phoenix. "Make your move, Mr. Nick! Doitdoitdoitdoit!!!!"

"Will you get OUT of your little fantasy world?" he whispered into her ear.

"JUST MAKE YOUR MOVE SOMETIME! I'M WAAAAATCHING YOOOOOU!" she said in a ghostly voice, walking backwards around him. Phoenix walked over to Maya, and Pearls of course got excited.

"MR. NICK IS MAKING HIS MOOOOOOVE!" she started singing repeatedly.

"Do you think there is any chance that Pearls will summon Mia so we don't have to deal with this?" he asked Maya. She giggled at the thought which made Pearls think something happened.

"OHMYGOD! MR. NICK MADE HIS MOVE!" she started prancing in circles. Then Edgeworth walked right by her.

"Watch-out, Pearl." He said sternly. He nodded at Phoenix, who just glanced at him.

"Oh, yeah! I forgot to ask. Why did you walk in wi-" Maya started to say.

"I told you not to ask…" Phoenix interrupted. "Case time."
