Part 59: Episode 3, Day 3, Trial: From Large to Small
Given what we currently know, it's impossible, but I'll let Edgeworth explain.
(I don't want to write off so many possible suspects...) (But I can't keep claiming the impossible, either...)
Ha hah!
But I see you had at least an inkling of the truth.Bah I'm sure we'll figure out a way around the latest statue-clock eventually. Oops, I spoiled it. Here it is...
It's quite simple...
However!

Strong gust of wind, my ass.
Ergo! When the people in the trailer took a break at 2:30, the way to the studio was blocked.

Bluffing is our forte so let's power through it and "claim it loud"!
(If I agree to let everyone in that trailer off the hook then the trial is over...)
The victim was murdered at 2:30, the exact time of the break in the meeting.
With 15 minutes, murder is certainly a possibility.
...Bluffing requires a bit more confidence in your statement there Phoenix.
Hmm...
I suppose you might say that...

Whoa! You're right!

No counter-argument, Mr. Wright?
Sound: Damage 2
Say bye-bye to two health sections if you went this route! We still continue with the next scene, though.
I would like to relieve Mr. Manella from the stand. (Wh-what? It's over?)Sound: Whoops
Phoenix, we can't let that stand, that alibi needs to get broken! Do something!
Sound: Gallery
Sound: Gavel
We have found that there were several other people in Studio 2 on the day of the murder.
They therefore have no relation to this case.Dammit, we've got nothing here, do we?
Given the size of the costume, no one other than Mr. Powers could have worn it that day.
Oh, here comes Cody. This day just keeps getting better and better.
If we had that, I'm afraid I would have to find Mr. Powers guilty. Your Honor.

Three straight gallery shots, Edgeworth really has the crowd buzzing now.

Order! I will have order! I see.
Court is adjourned for recess!Music: Silence

Well, that could have gone better. We haven't even gotten to use any of our evidence yet!
Music: Suspense
...I know Mia, it looks bad. Got any more magic spirit medium stuff for us?
If everyone in that trailer has an alibi... ... I'm sorry, Phoenix.
M-Mia!Sound: Stab
...
Don't get me wrong.Sound: Realization
Only one thing became clear in your cross-examination.
We're giving up on this alibi thing awfully quickly here. We must have yet another day of investigation coming to try and disprove it?
I thought there was more to it than that... But I was wrong. That's all there is.
Sound: Realization
Er... What's going to happen to me?
They think I'm a murderer!Yeah, Will, you're on trial for murder, that's kind of how this works.
If you are innocent, we will prove it. I guarantee it. Leave it to us, and... be yourself. Be strong.
I...Sound: Light Bulb
You...
Sound: Realization
Okay, Phoenix. This one's for the kids!
Let's do it!Music: Silence
Sound: Gallery
Sound: Gavel
Music: Trial
The prosecution has a concern. As our witness is a grade schooler of tender years, and this is a murder case...
I don't believe for a second that you're worried about this kid, Edgeworth, but good effort trying to hamstring us before we're even out of the gate.
(Nice to see Edgeworth taking the moral high ground...) However, we have no choice.
Oh, r-right.
I was kind of hoping he'd have to testify like that.
Next time we'll hear from Cody and try to break him down!
