PW:Backed into a corner by all the evidence,
PW:I accused the old lady on the stand of the m*rder.
PW:Trembling with rage, she revealed a shocking truth to the court!

OB:Actually, there's something I was told not to mention.
PW:N-Not to mention?
ME:What?
OB:Exactly!
OB:Listen up, and listen good.
OB:Some other people were at the studios on the day of the m*rder!
ME:Impossible!
ME:We hadn't heard of this!
J:Witness, why keep this crucial information from the court?
OB:Ain't you been listening?
OB:What was I to do? They told me to shut my trap!
OB:They said they had "nothing to do with it," see?
OB:They said to pretend they "weren't at the studios."
PW:Who were these people?
OB:There was a meeting of TV bigwigs, the director, and the producer.
PW:And where was this meeting held?
OB:Oh, in the Studio Two trailer.
M:Studio Two?
M:This is the first we've heard of this.
PW:Your Honor, we've learned there were others at the studio that day.
PW:Yet, as we stand here, they haven't even been questioned.
PW:I hold that it is impossible to declare a verdict right now!
J:What do you say, Mr. Edgeworth?
ME:I have no choice but to agree.
OB:Dear me, Edgey-boy... Don't gaze at me so passionately.
J:Very well.
J:That ends the day's proceedings in this trial.

M:Huh?! You knew those people were there?
WP:S-Sorry. I was asked to keep it quiet, too.
M:You've gotta tell us these things, or we'll lose the case.
M:Nick here has so little experience, he may as well not be a lawyer, you know!
PW:That's going too far.
WP:I... I appreciate the warning.
PW:Anyway, we'll go down to the studios again.
M:I hope we run into that boy!
SignE,SignE:Steel Samurai Path to Glory
M:We need to return this to him.
WP:You mean the boy with the camera?
PW:You know him?
WP:Yeah, he seems to have been sneaking on to the lot often.
WP:I've spotted him a number of times.
WP:A ghost?!
CH:A ghost? Come on.
CH:How can an adult be such a scaredy-cat?
WP:Hey!
CH:You should learn from the Steel Samurai.
CH:His way of life is awesome!
PW:"Way of life," huh?
M:You should have just told him you're the Steel Samurai.
WP:But it would've disappointed him to learn that this shabby old man was his hero.
WP:I don't mind, really...
WP:As long as kids keep loving the Steel Samurai.
PW:Yeah, there's no way.
PW:Such a nice guy would never smear the Steel Samurai's name.
SignB,Sign:Global Studios
PW:Then the m*rder was actually committed by someone else.
PW:We need to figure out who.

PW:Why are you taking him seriously?
SM:Oh, so j're defending WP?
PW:You're the director, but you have to deliver the script to the producer?
PW:Sounds rough.
SM:During rehearsals,
SM:she always barks out orders, heavily annotated script in hand.
SM:If I don't take it to her fast, my a*s is pwned!
PW:She adds notes to the scripts?
PW:That producer seems pretty hands-on.
PW:At the time of the m*rder, you were in a meeting, yes?
SM:Yeah, in the morning, we had an action-scene rehearsal.
SM:Then a meeting that lasted till PM.
PW:Action-scene rehearsal?
PW:Oh, so the director was there when Powers got hurt.
PW:Uh, what is this?
SM:j don't know Forest Imp?
SM:It's the studio mascot.
PW:Er, that's not what I meant...
M:Its head fell off?
SM:Well, it's quite old,

PW:So this is Studio Two.
M:There's a studio all the way over here?
SM:Yeah, but it's been unused for five years.
PW:Why is that?
SM:IDK!
SM:Apparently, there was an accident.
SM:The old security lady probably knows.
SM:She was around back then.
PW:What's this producer like?
SM:j-j don't know?
SM:Dee Vasquez...
SM:She brought the studio back from the brink of destruction. Md skllz!
SM:No one can defy her!

M:It was a typical summer romance, but done as a period drama.
PW:Wow, I guess Jack Hammer was quite the big star.
DV:Powers's attorney?
DV:You wanted to know about the day of the m*rder?
PW:Y-Yes.
DV:I hate to tell you, but at the time of the m*rder,
DV:the people here couldn't have gone to Studio One.
PW:They couldn't have? Why?
DV:The path was blocked.
DV:You saw Forest Imp on the way here, correct?
PW:Forest Imp?
M:The monkey with the broken head.
DV:That day, the wind pushed its stupidly huge head over,
DV:blocking the path.
DV:It wasn't until after PM that a crane came to move it.
DV:It took about an hour to clear the path.
DV:Everyone in this trailer was stuck here until then.
DV:We couldn't have k*lled Hammer.
PW:But what if the head fell over after : PM?
PW:Then you could have gone to Studio One.
Verdict,Sign:Safety First
DV:Each hour, Forest Imp announces the time.
DV:"It's PM, I daresay," and so on.
DV:Check the back of its head.
DV:The clock stopped when it broke.
PM::... That's before Hammer was k*lled.
M:Then the ones in the trailer were actually unconnected to the m*rder?
OB:Y-You backstabbing whippersnapper!
PW:Come on! I only said you could have done it...
PW:By the way, you certainly returned to your post quickly.
OB:Oh, the police took me away!
OB:They had a spare Steel Samurai costume and told me to put it on!
OB:How could I, a sweet, little old lady, wear a giant suit like that?!
OB:When they saw I couldn't, they let me go.
OB:Who do they think they are?
OB:Know this. This old lady never forgets a slight or insult.
OB:I'm never talking to you again.
OB:Don't come to me when you're lonely. My lips are sealed!
M:For someone with sealed lips, you sure talk a lot.
OB:Quiet, whippersnapper! Starting now!
OB:One, two, three, mmmph!
PW:Oh, but Hammer was pretty awesome, huh?
OB:Mmmph.
M:Yeah, yeah.
M:The Dynamite Samurai poster really gives you goosebumps, right?
OB:M-Mmmph...
PW:I prefer the Bearded Commander.
OB:The Bearded Commander series is unforgettable, ain't it?
OB:Hammer is an eternal superstar.
OB:He was such a huge part of my youth.
OB:If only that accident hadn't happened.
PW:Accident? You mean five years ago?
M:Tell us, old lady!
OB:No, I'd never do that.
PW:Come to think of it, Studio Two was abandoned five years ago, too.
OB:Shut up...
OB:I told you my lips are sealed!
M:For someone with sealed lips, you're talking a lot.
OB:Like I said, starting now.

M:Did you take all of these?

CH:I got 'em all. A perfect collection.
CH:I never missed one!
PW:Right... Did you see anything here, on the day of the incident?
PW:You were present, right?
M:Cody?
CH:I... I saw everything.
PW:What, exactly?
CH:The... The Steel Samurai k*lling the bad guy, obviously!
PW:Wait!
PW:Cody!
M:Pull yourself together, Nick!
PW:Stop pushing me in! Pull me out!
PW:Maya, pull!
PW:The day of the m*rder, there were others at the studio.

PW:Anyway, I must talk to Cody again somehow.
PW:Huh? Wait.
CH:I always take a picture!
CH:I got 'em all. A perfect collection.
CH:I never missed one!
CH:I... I saw everything.

CH:"The pale moon in the sky cries for your blood."
M:That's it!
M:Get it now, Nick?
CH:Isn't this common knowledge?
PW:Fine, I'll memorize it...
PW:So could you tell me about this, Cody?
PW:You saw the Steel Samurai k*ll the bad guy, right?
PW:Where's the photograph you took of that?
PW:Didn't you say you always take one? You never miss one?
PW:But none of these were taken that day.
CH:I deleted them.
M:Huh? You deleted them?
PW:But you went to all that trouble, so why?
CH:Uh...
CH:W-Well...
CH:Problem? I can't do what I want with them?!
PW:Yeah, this really is odd.
M:Say, Cody...
M:Tell us more about the Steel Samurai at that time!
CH:Oh... Sure!
CH:I remember it clearly.
M:Seeing the Steel Samurai in the flesh must've been so cool!
CH:I actually called out to him, you know.
CH:He seemed a bit surprised, but he posed for me!
M:What? The Steel Samurai posed in the flesh?
M:So, what was the pose like?
CH:Like this.
M:So cool...
Objection,Sign:Hold it!
PW:Hold it!
PW:Cody, could you do that pose one more time?
CH:Huh? There.
PW:I knew it.
PW:That isn't the Steel Samurai.
PW:It's the Evil Magistrate's pose.
M:Huh? Y-You're right.
CH:Yeah, even I found it kinda strange...
PW:Oh, I see.
M:What is it, Nick?
PW:It can't be.
PW:But I can't think of any other possibility.
PW:Cody,
PW:I know why you deleted the photos you took that day.
PW:You said you saw the Steel Samurai k*ll the bad guy.
PW:But actually, it was the other way around.
M:What do you mean?
PW:The bad guy defeated the Steel Samurai.
PW:The Steel Samurai lost.
PW:That's why you deleted the photos.
M:But the Steel Samurai? Lose?
PW:That's not the point.
PW:The one wearing the Steel Samurai costume at the time
PW:was the Evil Magistrate, Hammer.
PW:Hammer stole the Steel Samurai costume while Powers was napping,
PW:and then crossed the gate on the way to the studio.

SignD - Copy,Sign:Gate Studio Dressing Room Staff Area
PW:Obviously, he knew about Powers's injury,
PW:so he could pretend to be him.
PW:When Cody called out to him,
PW:he posed for him on the spur of the moment.
PW:But he did the Evil Magistrate's pose out of habit.
PW:And then, it happened.
PW:The bad guy k*lled the Steel Samurai, Hammer.
PW:You saw it happen, didn't you?
PW:You saw your beloved Steel Samurai lose.
PW:That's why you deleted the photos and lied.
PW:Am I wrong?
CH:Wh-What are you saying?
CH:The Steel Samurai never loses...
CH:He never loses to anyone! Ever!
PW:Cody...
PW:Why do you think the Steel Samurai never loses?
CH:Because he's strong, obviously.
PW:No, that's wrong.
PW:Tell me, what is his catchphrase?
PW:"Fighting evil for great justice."
PW:Exactly.
PW:He doesn't win because he's strong.
PW:But because he's righteous.
PW:He risks his life to fight for what's right.
PW:That's the Steel Samurai's way of life.
PW:So, as a fan, you can't avert your eyes from what's right, either!
CH:You're right.
CH:In truth, that day...
CH:After he posed for me, I secretly followed the Steel Samurai.
CH:And I saw some bad guys show up.
CH:The Steel Samurai went down.
CH:A-And he stopped moving...
PW:Thank you for telling us.
M:Then, the photos really are gone, huh?
CH:There's one left.
CH:There's one I didn't delete on here.
M:Really?
CH:Yeah, look.
PW:Wh-What is this?
OB:"What's right"...
DV:Don't you know when to give up?
DV:What now?
PW:This is a photograph taken on the day of the m*rder.
PW:Hammer showed up here, wearing the Steel Samurai costume.
PW:Yes, Hammer was k*lled here,
PW:at Studio Two!
PW:That means you all could've k*lled him, Ms. Vasquez.

DV:Ask the boy over there. He barged in and started this.
PW:Boy?
DV:Listen... No matter where the m*rder took place,
DV:I, at the very least, could not have committed it.
M:Wh-Why?
DV:Hammer was k*lled using the Samurai Spear.
DV:Who would believe that a petite woman like me used that heavy spear as a weapon?
DG:True...
DG:The m*rder weapon weighs fifteen kilos.
DG:It's really heavy.
DV:Besides, Hammer was a star who made me loads of money.
DV:Why in the world would I want him dead?
PW:Th-That's...
DV:If you want to accuse someone of m*rder,
