Ozpin heard a knock on the dorm room door. "Hmm, wonder who that could be." "Oh, I'm expecting someone, actually. Remember how I said I was getting help?" responded Yang. "Yes?" "Well, heeeeeeeeeeere it is!" said Yang, opening the door. "...The janitor?" asked Ozpin, confused. "...oh, it's just him. What's taking him so long...?" said Yang, almost to herself. Yang was about to close the door, before she heard a "WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAIT!" from down the hall. "Huh?" Yang quickly opened the door. Just down the hall was Ruby, accompanied by Phoenix Wright and Maya. "Okay, professor, this is who I was referring to!" Ozpin too looked out the door, and looked the lawyer up and down. "So, this is your "help"?" asked Ozpin, before Yang nodded and explained, "Yep! This is Phoenix Wright, and that's his assistant, Maya Fey. Mr. Wright is a famous defense attorney, known the world over for being able to flip impossible cases on their heads!" "Really?" said Ozpin, almost surprised. "A pleasure, Mr. Wright, Miss Fey. I am Ozpin, the headmaster of Beacon Academy," said Ozpin, shaking Nick's and Maya's hands. "I'm to assume you are the reason behind Ms. Xiao Long asking for the footage of the controversial situation we have found ourselves in?" "Yep, that would be why. We just want to take a look at it to see if there's anything we can do to help her clear things up," explained Nick. "Take all the time you need, Mr. Wright. The footage is being displayed from Ms. Xiao Long's scroll, and you can manipulate it however you like." Ozpin left the room, muttering something about Ironwood.
Nick and Maya sat down, in front of the scroll, before Yang walked over and explained how it worked. "The scroll works as a remote, and what you see being projected is the footage itself. There's a zoom function, a moving function, a pause button, a fast forward button, and a slow motion button. Let me know if you find anything." "What will you be doing?" asked Maya. "I...need to rest. The whole situation is kinda stressing me out." Nick looked around the room, trying to find something to write with. He noticed a bin of pens on the desk. "Whose stuff is this?" he asked. "Oh, that's Weiss's stuff. You might wanna ask before using anything of hers." Ruby, still in the room, said, "I'll get her!"
Ruby quickly dashed out of the room, reaching the library in no time. Weiss and Blake were sitting together, enjoying the silence. Ruby slowly walked up to them, as she knew the wrath of an upset Weiss. Even so, Weiss was still surprised to see Ruby, as she was not expecting her. "Is something up?" asked Weiss, wondering if Yang was in need of help. Blake set her book down, wondering if she was needed. Ruby simply said "Could you come to the dorm for a minute?" Weiss, with a confused look on her face, looked at Blake, before agreeing to go. "None of the books here are interesting to me, anyways," said Blake.
When they arrived, they were confused to find the lawyer in the blue suit next to Yang. "Who's this?" asked Blake. Nick turned around to see the two young women. "My name is Phoenix Wright, and I'm a lawyer. This is my assistant, Maya Fey." "I'm Blake Belladonna, and this is Weiss Schnee. The four of us are roommates and a team here at Beacon," said Blake, shaking his hand. "We're here because Yang called me down here to help her with her situation," explained Nick. "Well, that should certainly give her an advantage. But that doesn't explain why Ruby brought us here," wondered Weiss. "Oh! Right, I needed to ask you something," remembered Nick. "Could I use your pen so I can take notes? I seem to have left my writing equipment back in LA..." "Is that all? Sure, go ahead. And actually, if you don't mind, I'd like to see the footage too, just in case I notice something off that you happen to miss," said Weiss. "Sure, I'll take all the help I can get. Blake?" said Nick. Blake got on her bed and said, "I'll pass. I think I'll relax with my book."
Nick, Maya, and Weiss sat watching the projection, slowing it down, and watching repeatedly. The trio was getting bored, when Nick suddenly noticed something. "...Yang?" "Yea?" "...you weren't lying. You saw something that no one else saw." Weiss was perplexed, as were Blake and Ruby. "What do you mean?" asked Yang. "This is it...this is my evidence!" thought Nick. He showed it to the team, and they all agreed that there was no way that Yang was wrong.
Meanwhile, Ironwood was talking with Ozpin. "You want me to do what?" Ironwood asked, confused. "You heard me, General. I want you to be the prosecution. A lawyer may be a rare sight in Vale, but someone needs to fill the position. Seeing as how you were the one to officiate the disqualification, I think it should only be fitting that that someone be you," Ozpin explained. Ironwood pondered the matter. "I suppose that makes sense. I will make it clear that I do not wish to purposefully make the innocent guilty, but as a headmaster it should be my duty to take care of punishable crimes such as this." "I understand," said Ozpin.
