DLC episode

(Opening cutscene makes case look like I's going to be way darker than it actually is.)

"Saying this case is not dark. Really, we have Sorin's and Nichody's backstory, Selena's death, Sorin's tragic breakdown…this case was mostly meant as a wholesome serving of fanservice…but that's not to say it does not get pretty dark." One sin added.

(Athena goes through the magical routine with Trucy.) Did Athena study gymnastics on top of law and analytical psychology?]

"Considering the fact that she has been sown as an expert of martial arts since DD, being able to flip people over and throw them through the air with one move, I would have to assume she is pretty good. Why do you ask?"

(Because there is no way she's psychically capable of any of this unless something like this has happened. And that's impossible according to every law student I know ,so…yeah, Athena is going to die.)

"Oh, I get it. You are making up things to be mad about. I see your padding of the sin count starts early this case?" one sin added.

(Trucy, a seventeen-year old girl, handles all the accounting of the WAA. Let that sink in for a moment.)

"Trucy is very smart, organizes and probably more mature than everyone else. So…she is the best for this. This girl literary has her own show on TV, you think she won't be able to handle some numbers?" One sin added.

(Larry Butz's jacket.)

"Pierce points out things on the screen cliché." One sin added.

(Showing the badge to Larry.) Larry's objection does not get a speech bubble.]

"Pierce points out things on the screen again." One sin added.

(Ellen managed to outrun the police in a full-on wedding dress and-probably-heels without getting any dirty. Either the police are terrible at their jobs or she's an awesome escape artist.)

"Pierce failing at game logic n. 236623." One sin added.

(Tv new continues to report only on what is pertinent to the game's characters at any given time.)

"And you continue to point out things on the screen that we can all see." One sin added.

(Larry talks about his picture book career.) No way is a book title "Franzy's whippity-whip trip" appropriate for children.]

"Why? Have you seen it? Have you read it or even glanced at the cover. Oh…that's right…you can't, because we never see that book in the game. So…Pierce sins something she can't know." One sin added.

[(Cupiglet's lovey dovey lark is popular with 18-24 year old women.) Just see my last sin on this one.]

"Same here." One sin added.

[(Ellen claims she's a time traveler.) Oh, so this the new doctor Who everyone's been talking about.]

"Pierce makes a pop culture reference…" one sin added.

(Athena continues her pattern in this game of saying she's going to help, but ultimately being useless. Athena, you aren't a trilogy character. Don't even try to preteen you are going to be important in this case.)

"Good point…but don' think I forgot about you yelling at the screen." One sin added.

[(At the detention center.) Ellen keeps a frying pan in her wedding dress. I'm…not going to question why it's there, but how did it not fall out during the police chase?]

"Pierce failing at game logic n. 236624." One sin added.

(Also, if Ellen cries this much she must be dehydrated like, all the time. Where is she keeping the water for this?)

"Pierce failing at game logic n. 236625." One sin added.

"Okay, I will skip the next two sins, because they are both Pierce failing at game logic. Still getting sinned, though." Two sins added.

(Ellen fit aa goddamn iron in her wedding dress.)

"Never mind…three." One sin added.

(Edgeworth drives up.) Edgeworth drives over bench debris and nearly hits a person walking a dog, but the sound effects of his arrival are perfectly smooth. Why is that?]

"Maybe because Edgey is an excellent driver. Or maybe because… Pierce failing at game logic n. 236626." One sin added.

[(Maya and Edgeworth.) How did Maya know the exact thing Edgeworth said to Phoenix when he showed up last game. She was in Khura'in at the time.]

"Maybe Edgeworth told her to say that to make a surprise entrance while they were driving there." One sin added.

(Maya jumped in front of Edgeworth's car.) Maya attempts suicide in an effort to get a ride to with Miles Edgeworth. I'm a fan of his too, but this is taking it a bit too far, don't you think?]

"Are you sure? Because I know many hardcore Edgeworth fangirls that would like to discuss that with you." One sin added.

(Ema says the incident occurred the night before.) And it took the sprockets until the next morning to call the police…why again?]

"Or maybe they did call them, but the police only showed up in the morning and Ellen had no idea the police had been summoned to the scene until they got there. An don't say the police would definitely get to the scene immediately after being called, because that's bullshit." One sin added.

(Ellen was supposedly harassed by lots of other servants-who also disliked the victim-and were likely on the ship at the time of the crime, but only Nichody is ever considered a suspect in the entire…didn't I just write this sin?!)

"Yes…you did. Thanks for being honest for once. Still getting a sin for sinning the same thing twice, though." One sin added.

(Sorin Sprocket attended the Ted Tonate school of finding labor intensive alternatives to speaking.)

"Pierce makes a reference to a different game…" one sin added.

(Also, Hugh O'Conner is secretly a Sprocket. Calling the theory now.)

"Pierce makes a reference to a different game…" one sin added.

[(Sorin insists time travel is possible.) Several minutes of pseudo-scientific bullshit.]

"Time travel is pseudoscientific? I'm pretty sure it is universally accepted as scientifically possible. The only reason is it not done it's because no way has been found to amass the speed and energy required to travel through time. But, like Einstein said, it will become possible if we exceed the speed of light. So Sorin is working on something possible." One sin added

[(Sprocket manor.) Ah, so this is where they keep all the DGS rejects. Good to know, good to know…I'm sorry, what game am I playing again?]

"Pierce makes a reference to a different game…" one sin added.

(Maya is invited to a rich person's house, so naturally, her first instinct is to run around breaking things.)

"Pierce points out things on the screen cliché. And this is a double sin, since that has been a movie trope for years, used to poke fun at the clumsiness and naivety of main characters. For a girl parodying cinemasins, you sure don't know shit about movies." One sin added.

(Fixing things is a simple matter. But fixing people is a different matter. Even a skilled psychical can't bring back the dead.) foreshadowing.]

"Pierce hates foreshadowing for no reason cliché." One sin added.

(Nichody says he called the police the second he witnessed the crime, but it still took until ten am the next morning to arrest Ellen…why again?)

"Girl, have you seriously never called the police before? Every time I've had to call them…oh…" one sin added.

(Nichody's theme is neither his ringtone nor that of the steel samurai.)

"Are you padding the sins count, sis? I think you are padding the sins count?" one sin added.

(Phoenix and Maya play a game of flower catch in the middle of a mansion, and no one yells at them to get the fuck out.)

"Missing the obvious humor cliché." One sin added.

[(See? And that's why you'll never be rich!) Of all the things Phoenix from wealth, I would say buying burgers for you, going months without cases and leaving the agency's accounting to a teenager all rank above not badgering an airline for a sponsorship, but what do I know? I am just an asshole parodying a more popular media reviewer for the sake of entertainment.]

"Pierce yells at the screen cliché." One sin added.

(Larry misinterprets something vital to the case and draws it cliché. This really was meant to be a trilogy highlight reel, wasn't it?)

"Yes…it was. Don't get why you sin that when that's literally the point." One sin added.

(Ironically enough, this case is the only one where Maya doesn't reprise all of her cliché trilogy roles. She stops playing defendant/kidnapping victim/secret keeper and acts like a normal assistant in one episode. I'd remove a sin, if I weren't an asshole with higher standards than this.)

"So you literary admit that you like this and yet you still sin it. Why?! Just…why?! Why do you have to be such a colossal asshat for no reason?!" ten sins added.

(Phoenxi and Maya keep calling Nichody by his first name.) For no reason I cam think of, I feel like adding another sins right now.]

"For no reason I can think of, I feel like adding five sins right now. Oh, did I say five? I meant twenty five!" twenty five sins added.

(Wait a second, Ellen has her wedding bouquet here, but the same bouquet is also lying at Sprocket mansion right now. Now, I might now why Ellen has two bouquets, but that doesn't mean nobody else should question it.)

"Pierce failing at game logic n. 236627." One sin added.

[(Trial begins) trial begins not with an opening statement, but with dinner plans. And naturally, everyone forget to invite both me and the bailiff, who has been there all along.]

"(Sigh)…" one sin added.

[(Ema: Just this once, I intend to fully and faithfully testify for the prosecution.) You mean your job?]

"Pierce yells at the screen cliché." One sin added.

(Phoenix and Edgeworth wats previous trial time arguing about flowers and Edgeworth's love life. And I think I know why this case wasn't included in the main game.)

"Yes. It was made solely to be a DLC case. That automatically means it will be more lighthearted and detached from the game's main plot. In other words, this is what it's supposed to be like." One sin added.

(Wow. It's been a while since I've had this much excitement.) nay says more months after living in Khura'in….)

"Notice how she says mere months? Yeah, turnabout revolution ended in May, it's September now. Pierce thinks four months is not a while." One sin added.

(Nick is a jerk face.) This testimony.]

"Sinning this testimony. That's worth…this many sins." Twenty sins added.

(Image of Larry being detained by Sprocket personnel appears to include a guy punching his on face.)

"Only if you are blind can you possibly see it like that?" one sin added.

[(The two reception pictures.) We interrupt your regularly scheduled murder mystery to bring you…spot the difference.]

"Pierce makes a pop culture reference that…" one sin added.

(Edgeworth refuses to accept time travel.) Said the guy who also refused to accept spirit channeling until at least bridge to the turnabout.]

"Yes…and so what? It's not the same thing. Edgeworth has been shown to be closed to every foreign concept. He has accepted to accept spirit channeling, but came to terms with it because he saw it with his own eyes. He is a man of logic, if he sees something, he will believe it's true. He refuses to accept time travel in absence of any concrete evidence." One sin added.

[(Please feel free to travel back in time, Mr. Wright….and attempt to do this trial again.) Edgeworth is either savage or newly aware of the game's save mechanic.]

"This bullshit!" one sin added.

[(Larry wants to become a lawyer.) Larry Butz: ace attorney did not make it into the final version of this DLC.]

"This bullshit again." One sin added.

(Phoenix continues to give zero fucks about the daughter risking Athena's life in a magic trick.)

"Pierce sins the same thing twice cliché." One sin added.

(Nichody rose through the ranks as family butler in only a year.) And that, my friends, is what being with a powerful businessman's daughter gets you. A nice, powerful position where you tell all the other servant what to do, negotiate with foreign countries, work to put a stop to the opioid epidemic, meet with Russian lawyers and…I'm sorry, what were we talking about?]

"I have no idea what the fuck you were talking about." One sin added.

[(Maya jokes that she has the makings of a great detective.) Well, if DGS is anything to go by, all you need is the name, costume and someone to joint logic with.]

"Pierce makes a reference to a different game…" one sin added.

[(Stabbed with a candelabra.) So Yamakazi does remember AAI2. What's with all the food in the detention center, then?]

"The food here is not real. It's called game logic…and you just failed at it number… 236628." one sin added.

[(Newspaper clipping/talking to Nichody.) Incident from x year ago is related to today cliché. For the second time this game.]

"And, just like the DLC in DD, this case is standalone. Completely disjoined for any other plot points. How would anything happen in it without there being a backstory?" one sin added.

(Athena tells Phoenix to just do it.) Athena Cykes confirmed to be a Nike fan.]

"Pierce makes a pop culture reference…" one sin added.

[(Phoenix continues to give zero fucks about Athena's life being threatened.)

"And this is a triple sin, since this is the third time you've sinned the same thing." One sin added.

(Sorin can fold paper planes one-handed in five seconds.)

"Pierce failing at game logic n. 236629." One sin added.

(Does it count under the "Edgeworth can't get witnesses to say their name cliché" if the witness writes their name down?)

"Does it count under the "padding the sin count cliché" if you call a running gag a cliché?" one sin added.

(Edgeworth calls bullshit on the power of love.) Edgeworth insists he'll never get married, but he misses the chance to pull a Moseby and declare marriage to his job. Way to miss the opportunity Edgeworth.]

"Pierce yells at the screen cliché." One sin added.

(The sing of the pterodactyl.) Some bullshit.]

"But why is it bullshit, tough? You can't just call it that and not expand on that. What exactly is bullshit here? No arbitrary sins. Just say what your issue is." One sin added.

(Phoenxio presents the rip in the journal page.) So the writers of the case did go back and look at AJ ot put this case together. What's up with Trucy then?]

"Cool, but…this is not a problem of this specific scene, is it? You sinned Trucy out of place behaviour earlier…but you sin an unrelated scene for it, to the point where it probably counts as sinning the same thing twice." One sin added.

[(Nichody's surgery transformation.) Who's handing him tools? And why?]

"Pierce failing at game logic n. 236630." One sin added.

(The silent testimony.) This was considered a worthwhile way to waste game time.]

"This is actually really cool. Nichody really takes advantage of the fifth amendment by remain silent to avoid getting tripped up in a clever way. So…sinning this." three sins added.

(Also…why is the fixer-upper thing capable of taking x-rays?)

""Pierce failing at game logic n. 236631." One sin added.

[(Nichody's ceaseless ranting.) This goes on for some time.]

"Pierce points out things on the screen cliché." One sin added.

(The wedding cutscene) Yeah, Larry is dead.]

"Sinning this scene." Thirty sins added.

Total sin tally: 146

Sentence: traveling through time (back to the middle ages.)
