Edgeworth leaped to his feet, his face almost purple with rage, looking like he was ready to throw his DS across the room. "OBJECTION!" He roared, causing the in-game lawyer to echo his sentiment. "What do you mean, the evidence is inadmissible?"
Phoenix looked up from playing Tetris. "Stuck again, Edgeworth?"
Edgeworth grunted in frustration and loaded from a previous save. "This game is impossible. Even when I know I have an airtight case the defense manages to get off on some stupid technicality."
Phoenix snickered. "Welcome to my world."
Edgeworth rolled his eyes and returned to his seat. "Oh, laugh it up, Wright. It's not like you do that much better."
Phoenix shrugged. "So? The point of the game isn't to get a guilty verdict, but to find out what happened." He turned his attention back to his own game. "Besides, half of the fun is seeing how the interaction between all of the characters play out."
Edgeworth smirked at this. "Ah, so you do have a crush on District Attorney McCoy."
Phoenix flushed red. "I do not!"
"Sure you don't. And that wasn't you dancing and crowing 'Eyebrows of Justice strike again!' when you finally finished the first game."
Unnecessarily Long and Tiresome Authoress' Notes:
I love Phoenix Wright, but it suffers from the translators attempting to localize the game without also localizing the law system. (In the east, a suspect is generally guilty until proven innocent and the prosecution is given a lot more leeway in what they do, and thus the game makes a whole heck of a lot more sense.)
