Grossberg Law Offices, 5:30PM

Phoenix's POV

Nick: So this the office you visited yesterday?

Phoenix: Yep! But it seems he still not here. Where the heck is he?

Grossberg: *Ah-HHHHEM!*

Phoenix (Thinking): Ah, that old familiar clearing of the throat.

Grossberg: Ah hah! You again.

Phoenix: Um, hello, Mr. Grossberg.

Grossberg: … Well, well. And who are you two?

Nick: Officer Nick, sir.

Judy: Officer Judy, sir. We're Mia's defense cops.

Grossberg: I see. Well you were quite the thing, my boy.

Phoenix: Excuse me…?

Grossberg: The trial! The trial!

Phoenix (Thinking): He was there…?

Grossberg: Reminded me of myself when I was a youth!

Phoenix (Thinking): I guess something got passed down through Mia… maybe?

Grossberg: It brings back memories, it does! "Ah… the days of my youth… like a scent of fresh lemon…" you see. Anyway I own you my thanks, truly. I don't know what I would have done if things had gone poorly for the girl.

Nick: If you that worried sir, then why did you refuse to help her?

Grossberg: … …

Judy: Mr. Grossberg.

Grossberg: I'm sorry. It's just I need more time to think about it.

Phoenix: Well anyway. I've borrowed a photo from you and…

Grossberg: Where did you get that!? Give it back at once!

Phoenix: I'm sorry to have taken it with your knowledge. But…we need to help out a case.

Grossberg: ! A case...?

Judy: Yes. We've spoken with her and she quite told us that Mr. White stayed with Miss May.

Grossberg: I see. I beg your guy's pardon, but I must ask you to leave. I need to be alone.

Bluecorp Inc.

CEO's Office, 6:00PM

Nick's POV

Nick (Thinking): Whoa! What an office.

?: Welcome! Please furnish me with the title of your personage!

Nick (Thinking): What the…?

I turned and notice a rich white Polar Bear. He must be Mr. White.

White: Your name! What are your guy's names? I was just inquirably asking the title that you go by.

Phoenix: Uh… Wright. Phoenix Wright.

Nick: Officer Nick Wilde.

Judy: Judy Hopps.

White: Right I see… Splendiferous. Perhaps I have intimidated you guy's with my gaintesque vocabulary?

Nick (Thinking): What's up with this guy!?

White: I'm Redd White, CEO of Bluecorp. You know, Corporate Expansion Official? My business dealings bring me into contact with the elite of the elite. So I'm afraid I am not used to conversing with the wordily-challenged. Hmmm, let me guess… You, Mr. Wright, are an attorney fresh out of law school, are you not? And you Mr. Wilde and Ms. Hopps are police officers fresh out of police academy, right? That's the only explanation for why you three would come to meet me like this!

Nick (Thinking): What does he mean by that?

White: No matter. So what business does a "mighty" lawyer and cops have with a man such as myself?

Nick (Thinking): This is too much right now!

Nick: Well first off, Miss May is an employee of Bluecorp, is she not?

White: Correct. She was my secretariat. What a shock it was to hear what she has done!

Phoenix: "What she has done"… You mean the wiretap?

White: Indeed! She is paid to answer phones. Tapping them is NOT in her job description. She does gather information for us as part of her duties. But, I assure you, we do not condone illegal methods! It is ineffable that she would do this.

Judy: You don't condone illegal methods? Then what kind of company is Bluecorp anyway?

White: Ah, excellent question! We buy and sell various kinds of information. We are a company of the future! You might say, we ARE the future!

Nick: Sell… information?

White: Indeed. We gather any information we find and sell them to the press! In just 10 years, I've built this business up to the grand office you see now. Ah, in case you were wondering, Bluecorp was named after the color "blue"! I, Redd White of Bluecorp, as founder of CEO, named it so! And why, you ask, because I like the color blue of course! Fantabulistic, is it not?

Nick: I suppose.

Phoenix: Now, on the night of the murder were you in April May's hotel room?

White: Who can say? I seldom pay attention to mundane details such as time and place. My motto is: "Don't worry, be happy!"

Judy: Still, Mr. White… The bellboy has stated on the record that he remember you very clearly.

White: … Not matter! The bellboy can say what he pleases. I still won't talk to either of you. If you want me to speak, put me on the witness stand! Although I doubt either of you would be in capable of doing that.

Nick: And what makes you think we won't?

White: Oh hoh hoh friend. The police… the courts… To me they are mere toys. Playthings for my amusement! Neither of them have laid a finger on me and that's no expectation for you guy's as well.

Phoenix: Mr. White. There's something bothering me.

White: Yes? What might that be?

Phoenix: That big painting on the wall over there. Where did you get it?

White: … Hmm… No idea! I forgot!

Phoenix: Because I've seen that painting before. Yesterday, in fact? Why do I find that painting here today?

White: … Mr. Wrong, was it?

Phoenix: Wright.

White: It appears neither of you fully understand your position here. I ask again. Who are you guys?

Phoenix: Umm… Huh? I'm a lawyer.

Nick: And we're cops.

White: No, my feeble friends. You are both "mere" lawyers and cops. Worth nothing. Zilch. Zippo. Nada! Just like those sorry excuse for people, Gordyburger and Bozo!

Phoenix, Nick, and Judy: Wh-what!?

The next thing I knew I saw Mr. White giving Phoenix a hard punch to the face.

Phoenix: Oof!

Judy: Phoenix!

Then, too late, he gave Judy a punch to the stomach sending her down to the floor.

Nick: Judy!

White: Well what are you going to do officer? Charge me with assault? Charge away, I welcome it! For it is YOU who will be found guilty!

Nick: You baste… Oof!

I too, was punched as well and send flying down to the floor.

White: Heed my exposition! The police, the courts, they all do my bidding. I don't expect you to understand. It is a world beyond your compensation. You Mr. Wright came here from Grodyburger's, I presume?

Phoenix: Mr. Grossberg's… yes.

White: And you Mr. Wilde are from Chief Bozo's place. Then you need to ask Grodyburger about his painting here on the wall! And you to tell Chief Bozo why he hasn't told you about me, then you'll see the reason why you should fear me! Go now! Skedaddle! There is nothing more to discuss!

I picked up Judy and left the office.

Nick: Phoenix…

Phoenix: ?

Nick: I think we should go our separate ways for now. I have something I need to discuss with someone.

Phoenix: Yeah, same here. What about Judy?

Nick: She's fine. Just unconscious for now. I'll keep an eye on her. Just go.

Nick (Thinking): You've got some explaining to do Chief and it better be good!
