— Recipe for Turnabout

Lisa Basil is the almost-robotic head of Blue Screens, Inc. She was questioned by Phoenix Wright during his investigation into the murder of Glen Elg, an employee of hers.

Phoenix Wright's queries

Main article: Recipe for Turnabout

Defense attorney Phoenix Wright visited Blue Screens Inc. to inquire about the murder of one of its employees, Glen Elg. Basil gave them a robotic welcome and told them about various aspects of her company and the building that housed it. She also informed Wright that Elg was one of her best employees, but she refused to give up any important information. Using his magatama, Wright questioned her and figured out that Elg had a gambling problem that had led to his loan from Tender Lender.

After the Elg murder case was resolved, Basil hired a new programmer named Adam Mada to replace Elg.

Personality

Basil is a friendly person with various robot-like personality quirks and an appearance to match. The buttons on her dress resemble lights on a machine, and even flash in succession. They also blink more rapidly when she is stressed or tense. Basil speaks comparatively quickly and has a tendency to refer to topics of conversation with immaculate precision, even performing a slide to the right when evidence or profiles are mentioned, adopting a pose with a raised hand, as though she were presenting the evidence herself. She also refers to other people by using technical terms as though they were machines, mentioning Elg as having a few "bugs" in his personality and suffering from a "gambling virus". Upon meeting her, Wright briefly wondered if Basil was even human, but ultimately noted her in the court record as not being a robot.

Despite not doing any programming herself, she wears a blue lens monocular head-mounted display on her left side, like her employees, but only because she likes to wear it.

Name

• Her name is a palindrome in all language versions, like the other employees of Blue Screens, Inc.

Unofficial

• Brazilian Portuguese - Elisa Basile:
  • Direct adaptation of the Western name.

Development

• Her blinking and the flashing of the lights on her suit happen simultaneously, and they always happen at the same tempo (every three seconds). They are also in tune with the BGM that plays whenever she appears, "Eccentrics", as they will always happen during the parts of the BGM where computer beep-like sounds play. This gives off the illusion the flashing of the lights on her suit is audible.
