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!

Phoenix
(Flashback to Episode 12. Search ~ Core 2001) We last left off when Mia was taking on Leo Carson during the trial. Mia finds out that Arin is being brainwashed by Brie's and Mingty's father. Somehow he knew and Arin was in a bloody mess in the courtroom. Mia started having deja-vu from her first case. Brie agreed to find her father to protect Arin. It may be too late.

January 8, 2014- 9:30 a.m. - Defendant Lobby No. 6
(Maya and Mia are talking to Mingty.)
Maya
Arin's not going to show up.
Mingty
She's in critical condition. Doctors says she's not going to make it.
Mia
How's your sister doing finding your guy's father?
Mingty
I don't know, I haven't heard from her since she left.
(A little girl in purple creeps up to Mingty.)
?
(Talks into Mingty's ear.) Who are these people, Mingty?
Mingty
(Looks at her sister.) There trying to help Arin.
Mia
(Leans down to her level.) What's your name?
Tiki
T-Tiki Sp-Spelling. I'm-I'm Mingty's twin s-sister.
Maya
(Looks at Mingty.) She sounds nerves.
Mingty
(Looks at Maya.) It's the way she talks.
Mia
(Looks at Mingty.) You might want to be a little nicer to her.
Mingty
(Looks at Mia.) I have nothing against her. I tried to protect her.
Maya
She wasn't born with this?
Mingty
(Looks at Maya.) No.
Mia
You can explain it after the trial, okay.
Mingty
Okay.
(Bailiff shows up, Search ~ Core 2001)
Bailiff
The trial will be delayed. The hospital reported that they have lost the defendant.
Mia
(Shocked.) What?
Maya
(Shocked) They should have canceled the trial.
Tiki
B-but A-Arin was talking to-to me b-before we got here. She sh-should still b-be alive.
Mingty
(Looks at Mia.) It sounds like Brie used a barrier around Arin. She might be in a deep sleep.
Mia
She's in a coma?
Mingty
Yeah, that.
Mia
Then it still means Arin is still in trouble. That barrier won't hold.
Mingty
It should until Brie finds Father.
Mia
I want to know more about Tiki since the trial is delayed.
Mingty
Father did this to her. She's been like this since father killed mama.
Tiki
It-it wasn't my-my fault.
Mia
That explains everything. She's afraid of getting hurt from your father again.
Mingty
I don't know.
Mia
(Looks at Tiki.) Right, Tiki?
Tiki
I-I don't want to get hurt. Daddy leave me alone!
Mia
I'm sorry, Tiki.
Mingty
Don't be.
(Leo shows up.)
Leo
We can start the trial.
Bailiff
Okay.
Mia
The trials starting?
Maya
I guess.
(Music fades out)
January 8, 2014-11:00 a.m. -Courtroom No. 8
(Gavel Slams)
Judge Perciding
We will resume, yesterday was very disturbing. Because of what happen, Courtroom No. 9 is a crime scene. Let's begin.
Leo
To begin, Arin is in a coma, not dead. The Bailiff stretched the truth a bit.
Judge Perciding
(Closes his eyes.) Hmmm, I'll have to talk to him at a later date.
Leo
I've asked around town if they might have seen someone during the incident at the Smith's house and they said they saw no one. So what Mia said still troubles me very much that to think that a warlock was in the area. Many have said they saw Arin walking home from the store. They said it looked like she was out in space on her way home. She looked like a zombie.
Mia
But, do you find that weird Mr. Carson, that even for a study witch?
Leo
Many new study witches go through an adjustment period.
Mia
That's an allergic reaction to a flower.
Leo
(Shocked.) Why would someone like you know something like that?
Mia
My family comes from a long line of Spirit Mediums. An allergic reaction to the Black Rose is like death to us. Our sixth sense become frail.
Leo
A poison to the brain?
Mia
A witch casting a spell could die after a smell of a black rose. Even for me if I channeled someone I could die from it.
Leo
How would that be?
Mia
The temperature in the body would rise causing the blood vessels to break open and flood the body. They would drown in their own blood. If Arin was brainwashed, smelling a black rose would make a doorway for anyone to get in.
Leo
You learn something everyday. Then the black rose garden we have by the school I'll have to remove them.
Mia
That would help anyone else, but not Arin. She's got too much in her system. It could kill her if she tries to cast a spell.
Leo
There must be a treatment?
Mia
If you get to it early enough yeah, but it's been in her system too long a cure is almost impossible.
Maya
(Looks at Mia.) Sis, you never told me about this, you just told me to stay away from them.
Mia
(Looks at Maya.) You never asked ether.
Leo
But we can't say for sure.
Mia
(Looks at Leo.) Why don't we call a witness?
Judge Perciding
(Nods) I'll let you call anyone but that Mingty girl.
Mingty
NO! I'm ready!
(Mingty shows up)
Judge Perciding
(Shocked.) B-but your friend?
Mingty
If it means that I'll get hurt too then so be it. Father will be beaten.
Mia
(Shocked.) Mingty, you said Arin was the only one.
Mingty
He will hurt anyone that'll get into his path. He doesn't care about his family. He betrayed his family. I lost a mother. I won't lose a sister or a friend. He will pay.
Judge Perciding
(Closes eyes.) If you feel that way.
Mia
(Looks at Mingty.) Tell us what happened.
Mingty
My father use to be the principle at our school. He felt that a warlock could only be a solution to discipline. Arin for some reasons fell victim to my father and my mother found out. He used Arin to kill our mother. He then tried to hurt us all. Tiki tried her best to wake-up Arin. Somehow she did wake her up. That's when my father used his magic on her. Her whole body became paralyzed. To this day Tiki has a hard time moving. (Crying.) She's still hurt from my father's magic. I would like it if someone to take out my father.
Leo
(Shocked.) So that's the reason why they asked me to be principle.
Mia
That's right, (Pulls out a paper.) I was wondering why principle is spelled like that and not like principal for a school.
Leo
Because I'm not just a principal for a school. I'm the main principle, a factor for the school. Not just someone in charge.
Mia
Right, I guess it's just how you use it.
Leo
(Looks at Mingty.) Right, even if this is true, how are we going to find your father?
Brie
Let me take care of that.
(Brie shows up.)
Mia
(Looks at Brie.) Is he here?
Brie
Yes, You may do as you will with him.
Judge Perciding
We will take a 25 minute recess for the prosecution to prepare the witness.
(Gavel Slams)
January 8, 2014-12:25 p.m. -Courtroom No. 8
(Gavel Slams)
Judge Perciding
Let's continue.
Leo
I'd like to call Edward Spelling to the stand, a.k.a. EL Day Shock.
(Edward takes the stand.)
Leo
Name and occupation please.
EL Day Shock
My name is Edward Spelling. I am a warlock known as EL Day Shock.
Leo
Do you know why you're here?
EL Day Shock
Yeah, (Slams stand.) someone accused me of murder.
Maya
(Shocked.) Sis, I don't like him.
Mia
Its okay, Maya.
Leo
What's your connection with Arin?
EL Day Shock
She was my honor roll student. I gave her all the attention, she was the best student in the school.
Mia
Is that why you brainwashed her cause you had her wrapped around your finger?
Maya
(Looks at Mia.) This is no time to be reciting a Police song.
EL Day Shock
I don't know what you are talking about I praised her.
Mia
Are you saying Mingty is lying?
EL Day Shock
She makes up tall tales all the time. Don't believe a word she says.
Leo
I don't see her that way. A bully sometimes, but she's usually tells the truth.
EL Day Shock
(Looks at Leo.) Even you fell for it.
Maya
How are we going to crack him?
Mia
(Looks at Maya.) Good question. (Looks at EL Day Shock.) So what about Tiki? I've never heard her lie once.
EL Day Shock
If you can get her to talk.
Leo
I find that hard, she won't talk to me.
Mia
Maybe she's still afraid to talk to people.
EL Day Shock
You can't prove anything by naming people.
Tiki
(Voice can be heard) Why did you do it, daddy? Why did you kill mommy? Why did you hurt me? Why daddy, why?
(Telling The Truth 2001)
EL Day Shock
Where's that coming from?
Tiki
(Voice can be heard) Why did you hurt Arin? I'll be good if you tell me why. Please don't hurt me, daddy. I know you killed Arin's mommy and daddy. I saw you.
(The whole courtrooms is all shocked as to what Tiki said.)
EL Day Shock
How, how could you?
Tiki
(Voice can be heard) Mommy loved you, Brie loved you, Mingty love you, I… loved you, daddy. Why did you betray us, daddy? Did we do something wrong?
EL Day Shock
No, (Lowers his head.) it was me. I did it. I used Arin to kill both her parents, because they said they were going to take Arin out of school. I used Arin to kill her parents. I told my family if they told, I was going to kill Arin by removing her heart.
Mia
(Shocked.) What?! You removed her heart?!
EL Day Shock
I did, somehow Brie was able to get her heart back.
Brie
I learned from you father.
Judge Perciding
I'm ready to make my verdict. I find the defendant NOT GUILTY. Courts adjourned.
(Scene fades, music fades out. We find Phoenix sitting in front of his computer.)
Phoenix
That brings a close to this case.
Next Time
(Phoenix) I stir up something when I bring up Mia's case. Next Episode: Casting A Turnabout

Okay, I'm a bit confused. Weren't we talking about a principal from a school?
Leo
Were we now?
Maya
Iris, can you fix this?
Iris
It's supposed to be confusing.
Mia
I hate Homophones!
Leo
You're not the only one.
Iris
No more Homophones in the future episodes.
Mia
Thank you!
