Title:Farewell, My Turnabout — Last Trial

ME:Witness, can you see us?

DK:Yes.

DK:Let us begin at once.

ME:Then, state your name and occupation.

DK:My name is Shelly De k*ller, and I am a professional assassin.

J:Uh, what in heaven's name is this?

ME:A radio that was delivered earlier.

ME:As long as we do not trace its source, De k*ller will testify to this court.

J:But this way, we can't verify that he really is De k*ller.

DK:Oh, please wait one moment, then...

M:I wanna eat some noodles.

PW:Maya?!

J:Wh-What was that just now?

PW:No objections here!

PW:The defense accepts the witness as De k*ller!

J:What?

ME:Since the defense has no objections,

ME:I believe there is no problem?

J:Very well.

ME:Then, I shall begin the questioning.

ME:Did you m*rder Juan Corrida at the behest of your client?

DK:Yes, I did my job and k*lled him.

J:What?!

ME:What is your client's name?

DK:Before I answer, I would like to make one thing clear.

J:What is it?

DK:To assassins, the trust between us and our clients bears utmost importance.

DK:And that is the reason I am here on this witness stand today.

PW:What's your point?

DK:I do my job with precision and maintain client confidentiality.

DK:In exchange, I trust that my clients are discreet about me and my identity.

DK:That is my point.

J:Trust...

J:You don't get stabbed in the back?

DK:If that ever happened,

DK:I would show no mercy, client or not!

DK:I hate traitors above all else.

PW:But here you are, about to tell us the name of your client.

PW:I wish it weren't necessary, but this client has broken the moral code.

J:Moral code?

DK:In order to save themselves, they tried to implicate another.

DK:That is an unforgivable trespass.

ME:You have made your point crystal clear.

ME:Now, testify about who hired you to k*ll Juan Corrida.

DK:Yes.

DK:My client is...

DK:Adrian Andrews.

AA:He's lying...

AA:It wasn't me!

ME:You set me up, witness?

PW:What's going on?

Mia:De k*ller stabbed the prosecutor in the back.

Mia:I think he was supposed to testify that it was Engarde.

PW:He's trying to protect his client?

DK:Thus, I would ask you to declare the defendant, Engarde, not guilty.

Objection,Sign:Objection!

PW:Objection!

PW:Before that, I must cross-examine the witness!

PW:Mia, I'm a defense attorney.

PW:But I cannot accept an acquittal like this!

J:But he has revealed his client's name.

J:What exactly do you want to cross-examine?

DK:Indeed.

DK:I believe my testimony to be extremely beneficial to your case...

PW:Earlier, you said

PW:the trust between the client and you is the most important thing.

DK:Yes.

PW:But how can you tell that your client is trustworthy?

DK:Before taking a contract, I always meet my client in person.

DK:I speak to them while I look them in the eye,

DK:which is vital to establish trust between us.

PW:Then, you met this client in person, too?

DK:Yes.

DK:I met Andrews at a predetermined place,

DK:and decided he was trustworthy.

Mia:Got him.

PW:You met Adrian Andrews, correct?

DK:Correct.

PW:And you thought he was trustworthy?

DK:Indeed.

PW:I'm sorry, but that's an impossible tale.

DK:What?

PW:Shelly De k*ller, you have never met Adrian Andrews!

DK:Wh-Why would you say that?

PW:You seem to be working under a very big misunderstanding

PW:about her!

DK:What did you just say?

DK:About "her"?

PW:If you had met Adrian in person, one look would have told you

PW:that she is a woman!

DK:What?

J:B-But why would he make such a basic mistake?

Mia:I believe it has to do with her name.

PW:"Adrian Andrews."

PW:It's a very androgynous name.

Me:The witness personally meets every client, but he has never met Adrian Andrews.

PW:That means that Adrian Andrews wasn't his client!

DK:Bourbon!

PW:Now, mind explaining this contradiction?!

DK:Pardon me for saying so, but you are the one who is contradictory.

DK:For a while now, I've been testifying in a way that benefits your client.

DK:So why do you try to sh**t me down?

PW:W-Well...

DK:I believe I told you that I hate traitors above all else.

DK:You understand what I am saying, yes?

DK:Very well...

DK:I shall take my leave now.

DK:There is an item which I need to dispose of.

PW:Wait! Anything but that!

Mia:Maya!

DK:Then bring this trial to a speedy end!

J:What's going on here, Prosecutor Edgeworth?

PW:We can't do this.

PW:If we keep this up, Maya will die!

DK:Now, I remember.

DK:As a special case, I accepted Andrews's request via mail.

DK:It happens every now and then.

DK:Am I right, Prosecutor?

ME:The prosecution has no further questions.

ME:The cross-examination is over...

J:So, as the testimony stated, Adrian Andrews was the assassin's client?

PW:At this rate, Adrian will...

J:Very well. The defendant, Matt Engarde, will come forward.

En:Whew...

En:Finally the verdict, huh?

J:I can't think of you as truly innocent.

J:You have done enough evil to drive a woman to suicide.

J:But at least on the charge of m*rder, it would appear you are not guilty.

En:Of course I am.

En:But the defense almost threw me under the bus...

En:Even though I'm that guy who's as refreshing as the spring breeze.

En:Anyway, get on with it and declare me "not guilty," great judge!

M:You'd better get that slimeball a guilty sentence, okay?!

PW:If I do that, you'll die.

PW:But if I get him acquitted, Adrian will be charged as the m*rder*r.

PW:Whether I choose guilty or not guilty, someone's life is going to end either way!

Mia:Wright...

J:Now, defense,

J:let's hear your final statement on this matter.

PW:The defendant, Matt Engarde, is...

J:What's the matter?

PW:I'm sorry, Maya.

PW:I... I...

PW:I...

Objection,Sign:Hold it!

Fran:Hold it!

PW:P-Prosecutor von Karma?!

J:Wh-Why are you here?

Fran:One final thing before the verdict.

Fran:Mr. Phoenix Wright!

Fran:Rest easy.

Fran:I was monitoring the police radio.

Fran:Scruffy's injuries are minor.

PW:Your Honor!

PW:The final piece of evidence in this trial has just been delivered to the court!

En:What are you saying?

En:The trial's already over!

ME:The prosecution has no objection.

ME:It is our duty to examine every piece of evidence.

J:Hmm... Is that a video disk?

J:Just what is on it?

Fran:I checked it on my way here.

Fran:It contains the moment Shelly De k*ller k*lled Juan Corrida that night.

J:Order!

J:The court rejects the evidence.

PW:But why?!

J:We've already established that De k*ller committed this m*rder.

J:At this point, that video is meaningless.

Fran:What?

EN:Yes, it's meaningless, ace attorney.

PW:Damn it!

PW:Is this the end?

Mia:It's too early to give up.

Mia:This is the time to turn your thinking about.

PW:Turn it about?

Mia:The judge says he doesn't need the evidence.

Mia:In that case, who does need it?

PW:This evidence...

Mia:That will bring about one last miracle.

DK:Um, excuse me. What have you been talking about?

PW:Shelly De k*ller, you should take a look at this video.

PW:Right now!

DK:Oh?

DK:Stop it.

DK:One question.

DK:Who filmed this?

PW:The crime scene was being monitored.

PW:The one who set up the camera

PW:was Matt Engarde!

En:Stop it...

ME:The footage was transmitted to his home and saved on a video disk.

DK:Interesting.

DK:The client told me to protect that disk.

DK:I have it right here.

DK:I was sternly told not to watch it. So until now, I had not...

En:Damn.

Fran:The same video should be on that disk, too.

Fran:The one here is a copy.

PW:A copy?

PW:Who made it?

Mia:Maya, of course.

Mia:She wasn't just sitting around hungry.

En:It's all nonsense!

En:You guys!

PW:Your client once told me this...

En:It's my insurance.

En:I don't trust anyone, least of all assassins.

En:If he tries to blackmail me in the future,

En:he'll get a taste of his own medicine!

DK:It would seem I've been betrayed from the very beginning.

PW:Yes.

PW:That's the kind of person your client is.

EN:You b*stard!

ME:What now, De k*ller?

ME:I recall that you said you detest traitors most of all.

DK:My contract with my client is over as of now.

DK:I seem to have a new target on my hands.

PW:A new target?

DK:The foolish client who betrayed me.

En:N-No... Please don't!

DK:Mr. Wright, I promise to return your item to you.

DK:Excuse me.

M:What? I'm not an item!

PW:Now, it's time to finally hand down the verdict.

PW:Not guilty! You're free to go!

ME:However, on the first night you spend free,

ME:you are sure to be paid a visit by a very capable assassin.

PW:Guilty or not guilty,

PW:you're done for now!

J:Then, this time for sure,

J:I shall hereby hand down the verdict.

J:I pronounce the defendant, Mr. Matt Engarde—

En:Please wait!

Objection,Sign:Please Waiiit!

En:It was me.

En:I did it...

J:What do you mean?

En:I asked him to k*ll Juan!

En:I'm gonna be k*lled...

En:If I go free, I'll be k*lled...

En:Guilty! Please declare me guilty!

J:It seems we have reached a firm resolution.

J:Here is the verdict.

J:I pronounce the defendant, Mr. Matt Engarde,

Verdict,Sign:Guilty

J:guilty.

PW:Adrian!

Mia:Looks like she's at peace now.

:Yes.

:Ow!

Fran:Why are you smiling?

Fran:The verdict was guilty.

Fran:You lost.

Fran:So why look so happy?

ME:You wouldn't understand.

PW:Edgeworth...

Fran:What do you mean?

ME:I was once the same way.

ME:I did whatever it took to win and piled up numerous victories.

Objection,Sign:Objection!

ME:That's when a man appeared before me.

ME:When I first lost to you,

ME:I felt I had lost everything.

ME:And later, I found myself in the defendant's chair.

ME:There, I watched everything I had believed in come crashing down.

ME:That is why I had no choice but to leave the Prosecutor's Office.

Sign:Prosecutor Miles Edgeworth chooses death

Fran:A prosecutor who cannot win may as well be dead!

Mia:You must have realized

Mia:that the defeat was a new beginning.

Fran:Wh-What foolish nonsense!

ME:Try as you might to hide it, the truth will always make itself known.

ME:All we can do is trust one another and fight with all we have.

Fran:Trust one another?

ME:Indeed.

ME:That is why prosecutors and defense attorneys exist.

ME:You already knew that.

ME:That is why you could not forgive me, right?

PW:When I heard you'd disappeared, I felt betrayed.

PW:The reason I decided to become an attorney was because

PW:I believed in what you said to me, years ago.

PW:And you betrayed your own words.

PW:That's why I put away the symbol of our friendship.

PW:But I was mistaken.

PW:You pushed yourself to the brink and found the real answer.

PW:That trusting in people and relying on them

PW:is the only way to reach out to the truth!

PW:You saved me again.

PW:Thank you, Edgeworth.

ME:I'm only doing my job.

Fran:You foolish fools.

Fran:All you're doing is licking each other's wounds as losers!

ME:Franziska...

PW:Maya!

M:Mig!

PW:Maya—Ow, hot!

M:Sowwy.

M:Nick!

PW:I'm so glad you're okay!

LB:What a relief!

LB:Here.

M:Thank you, Larry.

Mia:Maya...

M:Sis?

Mia:Good job hanging in there, Maya.

M:Yeah, I really hung in there.

Mia:Good girl.

M:Yeah, I was a good girl.

M:Sis...

LB:Brings a tear to the eye, huh, Nick?

DG:Sure does, pal.

Mia:Wright...

PW:Yes?

Mia:Keep taking care of Maya, all right?

PW:Of course.

Mia:I shall always be by your side.

M:I know.

Mia:Don't slack off on your training, okay?

M:Okay.

P:Mystic Maya!

M:Pearls!

P:Mystic Maya!

LB:Brings a tear to the eye, huh, Nick?!

DG:Sure does, pal!

P:You all punished the evil superhero, right?

PW:Yeah, I'm sure that De k*ller will also be caught soon.

M:Speaking of superheroes, I lost Signal Blue!

DG:I, d*ck Gumshoe, have your back.

M:Thank you, Detective Gumtree!

M:Oh, sorry.

DG:Nah, I'm fine.

DG:It was only a flesh wound.

M:Thank you, Nick.

M:I was only able to keep fighting because I had this.

PW:And I was only able to keep fighting because I had you.

LB:Brings a tear to the eye, huh, Nick?!

DG:Sure does, pal!

M:Oh, right! I was hungry!

M:Come on, let's all eat.

M:Here, Pearls... Have a deep-fried burger.

P:May I really?

M:Larry, have a pork chop burger.

LB:Now, that's what I like to hear!

M:Detective, have a steak.

DG:Thanks, pal.

M:Nick, you get pickles.

PW:Uh, don't you have noodles?

Sign:International Airport Terminal No.

ME:Where are you going?

ME:Running away?

Fran:Shut up!

Fran:You could never understand how it feels to be a von Karma.

ME:Franziska...

Fran:Father was a genius, but I'm not.

Fran:I always knew that, but I couldn't afford to admit it!

ME:Prosecutors do not fight for fame and glory.

ME:You would do well to learn that.

Fran:You're always like this...

Fran:Always leaving me and walking ahead alone.

Fran:I hated you.

Fran:That was why I wanted to beat him.

ME:Phoenix Wright?

Fran:I would beat the man who defeated you.

Fran:That was supposed to be my revenge.

ME:I see.

Fran:I can't do it...

Fran:I can't throw away everything I've been until now.

ME:You can.

ME:Today, after watching him fight, you should have realized that.

ME:I have no intention of stopping in my tracks.

ME:If you are going to stop walking, then this is where we part ways.

Fran:I am Franziska von Karma, you know?

Fran:Don't you think for a second...

Fran:that I'll walk in your shadow forever!

Fran:Our battle has only begun, Miles Edgeworth!

Fran:Back then, when I saw this,

Fran:I had a strange feeling that I should take it to you.

Fran:Phoenix Wright,

Fran:let us meet again in court one day.

Sign:Nick

Fran:I'll hold on to this until then.

PW:With this, my story has come to an end.

PW:Having bid goodbye to my rookie attorney self,

PW:I've turned over a new page, living a new chapter in my life.

PW:Along with all the familiar faces.

Objection,Sign:Objection!

ME:Objection!

ME:Naïve... Far too naïve, you amateur!

J:Defense, rethink that once more.

PW:Understood...

PW:I'll take you up on your offer, and...

PW:Objection!
