Ace Attorney Opening
Phoenix
Hi, My name is Phoenix Wright. I was once a famous attorney that fought countless battles till one day I met a rookie prosecutor that cost me my badge. I aided Apollo through his battle. The courtroom has gotten to be even worse since I was gone. I went back and took the bar exam again to take on these fierce opponents. My road will change forever now because my old friends have come and helped me on my new quest in the courthouse. I am ready for battle, OBJECTION!
(Objection 2001: Ace Attorney: The Series Theme)
Phoenix
So to bring you up to date. I began telling you of a case Gregory Edgeworth went up against Manfred von Karma, who gave von Karma his very first penalty.
(Review from the first episode, Telling The Truth 2001)
Gregory
Objection! Your honor we are accusing this man of murder when we don't even know how or where the body is.
Judge Perciding
You mean to tell me that we don't even have an autopsy report?
Manfred
Objection! The autopsy report was delayed, my apologies to the court. Here is the autopsy report.
Gregory
Ah!
Gregory
Objection! Your honor, this autopsy report is a fake! The police hasn't even submitted an autopsy report yet. This one isn't even approved by the police department and can't be submitted as evidence.
(The crowd goes wild.)
Judge Perciding
(Slams Gavel) Order! Order in the court! I do find this very troublesome indeed. Mr. von Karma this is a very grave error that has come up.
Manfred
I know how it looks your honor, but I didn't even get the time to have the police approve of this autopsy report.
Judge Perciding
Submitting this autopsy report without the police's approval could cost you your badge Mr. von Karma. I can't submit this as evidence.
Manfred
(Slams desk.) This trial can't end here yet. I'd like to call the defense to that stand.
Masters
I can't take this anymore, this trial has to end now. I'm making a confession your honor, I did it. I was an accomplice to the murder of Isaac Dover, I assist in murdering the victim. It was me.
Gregory
Masters, no.
Masters
I'm sorry Mr. Edgeworth, but this is how it has to be.
Judge Perciding
I'm ready to make my verdict. I find the defendant GULITY! (Gavel Slams.)
Gregory
NOOOOOOOO!
Chief
Manfred, we need to talk.
Manfred
What is it?
Chief
We need to talk about the murder weapon. How did you not notice it? It's not like you.
Manfred
I messed up. We can let this slide right?
Chief
I can't, I've covered you in the past, but I just can't do it this time. I hope you understand.
(Manfred enters the hallway.)
Manfred
EDGEWOOOOORTH!
(The elevator begins to rumble.)
Gregory
Huh!
Yanni
We're going to die!
(Yanni grasp Gregory's shirt.)
Gregory
Let go of me!
Yanni
(Said at same time as Gregory.) Quit using my air!
(A gun roles to Miles' feet. Miles picks the gun up.)
Miles
Knock it off!
(Throws the gun, Miles blackout, the gun goes off.)
?
AAAHHHRRROOOOOGH!
(The light's comes on. A man walks in finds three passed out bodies. Picks up the gun and fires it at Gregory Edgeworth. Fades out with the man smiling.)
Robert
Mr. Yogi, you don't have to worry, you're safe with me.
Yanni
Be that it may be they can't treat me like this! I'm, I'm… Who am I?
Robert
(Yep, completely incompetent.)
(Music fades Out, Recap Fades Out.)
December 28, 2001- 6:00pm- Courthouse Hallway- 3rd Floor.
(Robert Hammond talks to the lead investigator on the case.)
Robert
So what can you tell me from the crime scene?
Detective
Someone was shot.
Robert
(Scared) R-right, who are you again?
Detective
They call me Badd, Tyrell Badd.
Robert
Well Terrible Badd
Badd
(Reaches in his coat.) Are you going to do your job or make fun of me and get seriously hurt?
Robert
(Scared.) I wouldn't dream of it.
Badd
You're that womanizing defense attorney. I remember you. Every case you dealt with has a woman as a suspect.
Robert
Sorry if they like me.
Badd
They wouldn't want to be 10 feet of you the way you treated them.
Robert
The investigation please?
Badd
Edgeworth was killed with a pistol, Yanni Yogi's pistol to be exact. Two bullets were fired. We are unable to find the second bullet.
Robert
Maybe you guys aren't looking hard enough.
Badd
(Reaches for his gun) I'll have to create the second one for you.
Robert
(Scared) That's not necessary. Job well done.
Badd
If you're so smart at finding evidence then you find the second bullet so I don't have to make one.
Robert
Find then, I will. Then you can say to the whole courthouse that you guys are lazy. (Starts looking at the back of the elevator.)
Badd
(Pulls his lollypop out of his mouth.) Fine then, I'll tell the whole courthouse that you are lazy as well. Since you are definitely looking in the wrong spot.
Robert
(Turns around.) The crime scene is in the elevator right?
Badd
Yeah, so what. The body was found next to the elevator door, not in the back of the elevator. We keep the interesting things up front. Oh, that's right women are your thing, right?
Robert
Well you don't have to be an ass about it. Well I can't seem to find it.
Badd
What'd I tell you? No use in finding something that doesn't exist.
Robert
It has got to exist if there were two rounds that were fried.
Badd
We're not even sure if to rounds were fired at the crime scene, for what we know is that the bullet could have been fired after his death.
Robert
Then where would they fire that bullet?
Badd
Why don't you ask the suspect?
Robert
He won't ever remember that.
Badd
Then we're stuck. The bullet is a dead end.
Robert
What about Gregory's son?
Badd
Miles? He doesn't even remember anything after the earthquake.
Robert
This is getting nowhere fast.
Badd
What's puzzling me is the fact that Yanni Yogi is a suspect. If Miles is as bad as he is then Yanni Yogi couldn't have shot him.
Robert
That's what puzzles me too. (Looks back into the elevator.) But the spirit medium picked him.
Badd
You're wrong, Gregory Edgeworth pick him. Gregory named him the suspect.
Robert
(Looks back at Badd.) Oh come on, you too?
Badd
An old saying once said, "If you eliminate the impossible then what remains is to be believed possible."
Robert
I've heard that too.
Badd
Then this investigation supposed to prove Yogi's guilt.
Robert
The answers will have to come out in tomorrow's trail.
Badd
Make the most of it. The only witness you got is Miles Edgeworth. If you don't mind I've got a courtroom to fix. (Walks towards the nearest courtroom.)
Robert
Wow.
(Fades Out.)
December 29, 2001- 10:00am- Courtroom No. 3
(Gavel Slams. We see the Judge in the back of the courtroom, The prosecution on the left and Robert seated next to Grossberg on the right. Ace Attorney - Trial)
Judge
It's time for the trial of Mr. Yanni Yogi. Is the defense ready?
Robert
Yes, your honor.
Judge
Is the prosecution ready?
Prosecution
Ready, your honor.
Robert
(What a lovely voice.)
Grossberg
I hope you're not drooling over Stacy McMichael over there.
Robert
(Looks over to the prosecution side.) So, Stacy is it?
Stacy
Yes.
Judge
Ms. McMichael, I believe this is your first case.
Stacy
This is my first murder case your honor.
Judge
Please give out your opening statement.
Stacy
Yes, your honor. The prosecution believes without a shadow of a doubt that the bailiff Mr. Yanni Yogi killed Mr. Gregory Edgeworth. He did it in the elevator with his own pistol.
Judge
Okay, you may call your first witness.
Stacy
(Nods.) The prosecution would like to call Detective Tyrell Badd to the stand.
(Badd takes the stand.)
Robert
(I thought he said his name was Terrible.)
Badd
Good morning, your honor.
Judge
Good morning.
Stacy
Good morning, please state your name and occupation please.
Badd
My name is Tyrell Badd. T- Y- E- L- L- B- A- D- D. I'm the lead investigator on this case.
Stacy
(Smiles.) Thank you, would you tell us the crime scene please?
(Music Fades out - Testimony ~ Moderato 2001)
Badd
(Pull his lollypop out of his mouth.) Sure thing,
- Around 1:15pm to 1:30pm Gregory Edgeworth entered the elevator.
-There was an earthquake at 1:20pm.
-The elevator quit working seconds later.
-The three became oxygen deprived.
-At 1:30pm Mr. Edgeworth was found dead.
-The pistol fired two shots.
- Mr. Edgeworth was only hit once through the lungs.
(Music fades out.)
Judge
(Eyes wide open.) This sounds like it followed after another trial that day.
Badd
It did your honor, almost right after the trial. The gap was only 15 minutes apart.
Judge
That close? The court expects the pistol and the bullet into evidence. Mr. Hammond you may cross- examine the witness.
Robert
(This looks bad. What am I going to do? If I don't find a flaw In Detective Badd's logic here it will hurt my case. I've got to think about this real hard.)
(Pursuit ~ Cornered 2001)
Grossberg
(Looks at Robert.) Robert, is everything all right?
Robert
Something doesn't seem right about his testimony Grossberg, but I can't put my finger on it!
Grossberg
You've gotta do something or your client is going to be found guilty.
Robert
Wait a minute, that's it. (With finger pointing out.) OBJECTION!
(To Be Continued)
Next Time
(Phoenix) Robert is in a bind. He will he get out of this dangerous testimony that Detective Badd has given. Will Robert lose and find Yanni Yogi guilty, or does he have something up his sleeve. The trails only beginning, find out Yanni Yogi's fate in the next episode of Ace Attorney- The DL-6 Trial.
Robert
It can't end here. I've got to find a way out if this.

Robert
Maybe you guys aren't looking hard enough.
Badd
(reaches for his gun) I'll have to create the second one for you.
(Gun sounds off.)
Badd
Cut! Would the sound guy hold off the gun sound until I pull the trigger? (Facepalm.) Gees, and they are supposed to be professionals.
2.
Badd
My name is Tyrell Badd. T- W- E- L- L- B- A- D- D. I'm the lead investigator on this case.
Judge
