District Court Defendant Lobby No. 2

Phoenix: Karma…? 

He repeated the name once Edgeworth said it as the man wasn’t happy about it. 

Edgeworth: That’s right, Manfred von Karma. He’s the best prosecutor there is. He hasn’t lost a case in his 40-year career. He is a god of prosecution, Wright! A god! 

Maya: Not a single case? 

Edgeworth: He’ll do anything to get a guilty verdict, anything. 

Phoenix: Hmm. Sounds like someone else I know, Edgeworth. 

Edgeworth: Hmph. You don’t understand. I mean he’ll really do anything. Manfred von Karma is a man to be feared. 

Ryan: ‘That’s quite a claim coming from someone who is known to forge evidence…’ 

Edgeworth: He taught me what it really means to “prosecute.” 

Phoenix: Wh-what!? 

Edgeworth: Just picture a prosecutor as vicious as me… multiplied by a factor of ten. 

Maya: Ugh… So… so was he your teacher, then, Mr. Edgeworth? 

Edgeworth: Something like that… 

Maya: And now he’s trying to get you found guilty!? What a creep! Oh, wait…  Maybe he’s planning on losing on purpose to help you out! 

Edgeworth: Not a chance… He hasn’t lost once in 40 years. 40 years! He’s as ruthless as me, times twenty! 

Maya: That’s pretty ruthless… 

Edgeworth: Like I said. He’s a god among prosecutors. 

Phoenix: ‘I guess that’s something like Mia was to me. Speaking of Mia…’ Um, Maya? 

Maya: Uh huh? 

Phoenix: We could really be using Mia’s help right now… don’t you think? 

Maya: Oh… 

Phoenix: ? 

Maya: I can’t. Sorry. I tried, I really tried, but I couldn’t reach. 

Ryan: You couldn’t “reach”? Means what? 

Maya: I think it’s because I haven’t been training. My powers are weak again… 

Phoenix: Oh man, what bad timing! 

Maya: I’m really sorry. I’ll try my best! 

Phoenix: We hope so! 

Ryan: Yeah! 

Edgeworth: What are you whispering about? 

He said, glaring at them as they separated as Phoenix freaked out from the intense look. 

Phoenix: O-oh, it’s nothing. Well, it’s time. Let’s head in… 

December 26, 10:00 AM 
District Court
Courtroom No. 3 

Judge: Court is now in session for the trial of Mr. Miles Edgeworth. 

Phoenix: The defense is ready, Your Honor. 

Karma: … 

Judge: Erm, Mr. von Karma? Is the prosecution ready? 

Karma: … Fool… You seriously think that I would stand here were I not completely prepared? 

Judge: R-right, my apologies! 

Phoenix: ‘He’s even got the judge scared!’ 

Judge: Very well, your opening statement, please.
