"Very well done, Prosecutor Edgeworth!" The Judge praised.

Phoenix was sweating already.

"Mr Wright?" Polly tilted her head.
"...Yes?" He wiped sweat away from his forehead.
"You're not thinking about giving up...are you?" She glared at him.
"What-?! No! Of course not! Why wo-" Phoenix got interrupted.
"Then object." Polly said sternly.

Prosecutor Edgeworth had already began speaking again.

"Now then, if the defence hasn't got anything else to say..."

"Hold it!"

Phoenix's voice echoed throughout the the courtroom.

The Prosecutor sighed.

"Yes, Wright?"

"The defence wishes to re-examine the witness!" He pointed. (And find something that will actually prove Apollo's innocence! ...I hope)
Miles thought for a moment. "...I'll allow it."
"Huh?" Phoenix looked confused. (That was...surprisingly easy)
"You heard me. Continue the cross examination." Miles cleaned his glasses.
"You heard him, Mr Wright! Continue the cross examination!" The Judge slammed his gavel.
( May I remind you, your honour, that this is YOUR courtroom? )

Ema began to speak again.

"There were three victim's in total, one murdered."
"Hold it!" Phoenix yelled. "There's something that's been bothering me..."
"Spit it out." Miles tapped his arm.
Phoenix rubbed his chin. "Why was only one victim killed? The defendant would have known if the other victim's weren't dead, right? So why didn't he finish them off? He had plenty of time on his hands-"

"Objection!"

Miles cut in.

"All of this will be explained...by my next witness."
"Eh?" Phoenix tilted his head.
"Ema Skye, you may step down now. The Prosecution calls their next witness...Scarlett Curls!" Miles slammed the desk.
"...Even I don't take the Judge's job.." Polly muttered.
( See? Someone agrees with me. )
