Turnabout Goodbyes


It's been, what, 15 years?

About that, yes.

15 years is a long time to wait... You can't imagine how much I've suffered...

You... suffered?

And now... the perfect opportunity presents itself. At last... I shall have my revenge!

What!?

...Merry Christmas.


December 25, 10:08 AM
Wright & Co. Law Offices


Maya:
Hey, hey, Nick! Do you know if there's any good waterfalls around here?

Phoenix:
Waterfalls...? Dare I ask why?

Maya:
Duh, Nick! Isn't it obvious? I need a waterfall to stand under! Preferably a freezing one!

Phoenix:
... Oh... Is that part of your spirit medium training?

Maya:
Of course! Except, I've been slacking off lately... I need to brave the elements and be forged anew under the rushing spring waters!

Phoenix:
Umm... Okay... I don't know about any falls per se, but Gourd Lake is pretty close...

Maya:
Oh. Darn.

Phoenix:
Sorry, but them's the breaks. Couldn't you just take a cold shower or something?

Maya:
... Good idea!

Phoenix:
(So much for the rushing spring waters...)

TV:
Next in the news... A large, unidentified animal was sighted at Gourd Lake! The town is buzzing with excitement! Locals are calling it "Gourdy" in a tip of the hat to Nessie, the Loch Ness monster. Though its namesake, Nessie, proved to be a hoax... locals are confident their Gourdy is the real deal. ...

Phoenix:
*yawn* Bor-ing. Can't they show real news for a change?

Maya:
Nick?

Phoenix:
?

Maya:
The water pressure's kind of low in that shower.

Phoenix:
... You want more pressure, huh? Why don't you go down to the fire department and have them spray you with the hose?

Maya:
... Good idea, Nick!

Phoenix:
(Changed from [Apparently, E.S.P. is no aid in detecting sarcasm...] in the original release)

TV:
We interrupt this program to bring you a special news bulletin! Strange occurrences continue at Gourd Lake... But this time, it's murder!

Phoenix:
(Gourd Lake again?)

TV:
The body of a man was found in the lake early this morning. A suspect was apprehended. Sources inside the police department revealed... that the suspect's name is Miles Edgeworth, age 24. Edgeworth was an up-and-coming prosecution attorney, known for his skill and connections. He was guaranteed a long and rewarding career... Has he thrown it all away?

Phoenix:
(...? E-Edgeworth!?) What's going on!? Edgeworth would never do something like--

Maya:
Nick?

Phoenix:
Yipes! M-Maya!

Maya:
The fireman yelled at me when I called him.

Phoenix:
We've got bigger things to worry about than that! They arrested Edgeworth!

Maya:
What? You mean, the prosecutor?

Phoenix:
Yeah, he's a suspect... in a murder!

Maya:
Whaaaaat!? When? Where? Whom? Why? How?

Phoenix:
I-I don't know!

Maya:
Let's go find out, Nick!


December 25
Detention Center
Visitor's Room


Maya:
You know, Nick... We've all been in here one time or another, haven't we?

Phoenix:
I guess it comes with the territory.

Maya:
I'm not sure it's something we should mention to too many people... Aah!

Phoenix:
... Hey! Edgeworth! Come back!

Edgeworth:
What are you doing here!?

Maya:
Nick, I don't think he's in a very good mood.

Phoenix:
Well, he is in detention. Were you in a good mood when you were here?

Edgeworth:
So, you've come to laugh at the fallen attorney? Then laugh, laugh! Well? Why aren't you laughing?

Maya:
Nick... Should we be laughing?

Phoenix:
Nah. It's a trick. Laugh and he'll get mad... or burst into tears. Edgeworth. We don't have so much free time we can spend it coming down here to laugh at you.

Edgeworth:
... Yes you do.

Phoenix:
(Actually, he's right.)

Edgeworth:
... I hoped you wouldn't come. I didn't want you to see me. Not like this.

Phoenix:
(Changed from [Hey, I didn't want to see you either, believe me.] in the original release)


December 25
Gourd Lake Park
Entrance


Maya:
This is where it happened?

Phoenix:
Yeah. Gourd Lake is in the middle of this park.

Maya:
I can see some police walking around in there.

Phoenix:
Questioning people, probably.

Maya:
Hey! Isn't that Detective Gumshoe over there?

Gumshoe:
Well, pal!? There's enough of us here! Anyone found anything?

Police:
S-sorry, sir... Nothing.

Gumshoe:
Idiot! The trial's tomorrow! We need clues, on the double!

Police:
B-but, sir... There weren't any clues... that's why we arrested that attorney, Mr. Edgeworth! It's clear, sir. He's the one who--

Gumshoe:
Shaddup! Just you try saying that again! (Changed from [I'll... er... I'll make you sorry if you do!] in the original release) (Changed from [I mean... just, get outta my face, pal!] in the original release)

Police:
Y-yes, sir!

Maya:
Detective Gumshoe's kinda scary today!

Gumshoe:
Recruits... peh! ... Aah!

Maya:
Eek!

Gumshoe:
Hey, you're that Harry guy! Harry Butz!

Phoenix:
Wright! Phoenix Wright! (Will he ever learn my name!?)

Gumshoe:
And just what are you doing here, pal? Investigating!?

Phoenix:
Huh? Um, well, yes. I suppose.

Gumshoe:
Well, I'm here to help! Ask me anything you want! Bring it!

Maya:
He seems different than usual. I wonder what's up? Umm... Mr. Edgeworth hasn't actually asked us to defend him yet...

Gumshoe:
Huh!? Oh? Y-you don't say...

After clearing all Talk options:

Police:
Detective Gumshoe, sir!

Gumshoe:
What? Find something!?

Police:
Um, no, sir. Not yet. But there was a call from the precinct. They want to hold an investigation briefing...

Gumshoe:
A briefing? Right! I'm off! Oh... Sorry, pal. I guess you heard. I gotta go. Any last things you want to ask me about before I head back?

Phoenix:
You're not coming back, Detective?

Gumshoe:
Erm... Probably not, pal.

Phoenix:
So, what should we do if we have something to talk to you about...?

Gumshoe:
Ah, right. Here, I'll show you how to get to the precinct. Come down and see me anytime.

Detective Gumshoe gave you directions to the police station.

Phoenix:
Oh, hey! Detective Gumshoe!

Gumshoe:
W-what!?

Phoenix:
Um, we'd like to take a look around in the park. Can we walk around?

Gumshoe:
Yeah! No problem, pal. You got my permission.

Maya:
You know, Nick. I think there's something to be said for talking to people when they're busy.

Phoenix:
Yeah. They don't have time to think about not giving you information...

Maya:
Right! Now, let's get investigating!


December 25
Police Department
Criminal Affairs


Maya:
... Looks like Detective Gumshoe isn't here.

Chief:
Something wrong, miss? Hmm? Turning yourself in? Okay, what did you do? Shoplifting? Larceny? Public indecency...?

Maya:
N-no! None of those things! We're looking for Detective Gumshoe... is he around?

Chief:
Gumshoe? Oh yeah. He's in a meeting right now. I don't think he'll be out any time soon.

Maya:
Okay, we'll come back.

Chief:
You do that. Oh, and go straight home and stay out of trouble. No more shoplifting, you got that?

Maya:
... Do I look like a criminal or something?


December 25
Gourd Lake
Public Beach


Maya:
Wowsers! This is "Gourd Lake"?

Phoenix:
Yup. I'm not sure it warrants a "wowsers," though.

Maya:
Hmm. Probably not. But hey, look at that snack stand!

Phoenix:
"Samurai Dogs"...?

Maya:
I wanna Samurai Dog! Please! I bet they're great!

Phoenix:
With a name like Samurai Dog, how could they not be?

Maya:
They're a little behind the times, though. The kids are all into "The Pink Princess" now. I mean, like, y'know!?

Phoenix:
(Nope.)

December 25
Boat Rental Shop


Maya:
Nick... what is this place?

Phoenix:
A boat rental shop. Closed for Christmas it seems. I guess a murder taking place on one of the boats won't be good for business, either.

Maya:
Boats... I've never ridden on a boat.

Phoenix:
Really? Well, how about we go out on one when the trial is finished?

Maya:
Hey, good idea! You bet!


December 25
Gourd Lake Woods


Maya:
I like it here, Nick. Look... someone's camping!

Phoenix:
They've got guts, camping at the scene of a murder.

Maya:
Hey, hey, Nick! If they were camping here last night, they might know about the murder!

Phoenix:
(That's true...) Good call, Maya. Let's go talk to them.

Phoenix:
This camera has a mic and some sort of attachment. It must take pictures when triggered by a noise.

Maya:
Wow! Cool! Let's try it out! *cough* "Hi, I'm Nick!" ... Maybe I'm not saying it loud enough. "HEY! I'M NICK!!!" ... Huh. NIIIIIIIIII......IIIIIIIIIICK!

Phoenix:
Will you stop that?

Maya:
Maybe it's broken?

Phoenix:
D-don't kick it! Maybe it isn't set up to respond to voices?

Maya:
(Changed from [Well what then? I know!] in the original release)

Phoenix:
(Changed from [The party popper...?] in the original release)

*BANG*


klik klik klik klik klik klik klik klik klik klik klik klik klik klik klik klik klik klik klik klik klik klik klik klik

Maya:
(Changed from [... Yep. It responded.] in the original release)

???:
Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaw! Hey, you! Git yer hands offa' that!

Maya:
Eek!

???:
What in the Sam Hill...!? Look what ya done now! There goes a whole roll of film!

Maya:
Ah? Wha... huh? S-sorry!

???:
Sorry's nice but it don't pay my bills! Y'all know how much a roll of that film costs!?

Maya:
I-I'll pay you back!

???:
What were ya'll thinkin' settin' off a party-popper in a place like this?

Maya:
Uh... well...

???:
What! Don't try to play stupid with me just 'cause you think I'm some country bumpkin! Yeah, I know how y'all Yanks think! "I say, those southern folks talk with that exaggerated drawl, why they must be dumb!" Well let me tell you, just because I might be dumb don't mean we all are!

Maya:
N-Nick, help!

???:
And who are you, now? Her chaperone?

Phoenix:
Yeah, uh, no, rather, uhh... we're sort of... friends?

???:
Jus' figure out what y'all are gonna say and say it for bejeezum's sake! Gawd, I'd rather sit through one of papa's drawls than listen to you stutter all day.

Phoenix:
(Oh boy... I guess we should pay her for the film...)

???:
Watch it!

Phoenix:
Yes ma'am. (On second thought, I'll pay later...)

Maya:
I'm really sorry!

Phoenix:
I, er, this is my badge.

???:
Huh? Aren't badges supposed t' be all shiny and impressive? You a cop or something?

Phoenix:
Umm... I'm a lawyer.

???:
Wh-what!? Y'all ain't gonna try and pull one o' them lawsuits on me over that film now? Cause I'll have you know I'm a fighter and I wrassled meaner looking' things'n you!

Phoenix:
N-no, that's not it at all. We're here investigating a murder that took place here, on the lake.

???:
A murder...? ... Sounds cool! Why didn't y'all say that in the first place! Go ahead, ask me anything ya like!

Phoenix:
(Finally! Some cooperation!)

???:
You too. Y'all can come out of hiding now. I won't bite. Hard.

Phoenix:
(Come to think of it, where did Maya get to?)

Maya:
S-sorry... I-I was feeling a little overwhelmed. The culture gap and all...

???:
Never you mind, honey. I kin' talk Yank for ya if... ahem... if it pleases you?

Maya:
Th-thanks. I think I'll be okay.

Lotta:
Great then! I'm Lotta, Lotta Hart, but y'all can call me Lotta! I'm here photographing meteor showers for a research project. Mighty pleased ta meet ya!

Phoenix:
Lotta?

Lotta:
Yeah?

Phoenix:
So, your camera... it triggers on loud explosion noises?

Lotta:
Ayup.

Phoenix:
Actually, the victim in the case we're researching--he was shot with a pistol.

Lotta:
A pistol...?

Phoenix:
Right. Now wouldn't a gunshot make a similar noise to our party popper...?

Lotta:
I guess it would.

Phoenix:
Your camera... didn't get a picture of the murder, did it?

Lotta:
... Hey! Y'all are pretty bright!

Phoenix:
Huh?

Lotta:
I see what yer sayin'... Tell ya what, I'll have a look-see at my film.

Phoenix:
It would have been a photo taken late last night...

Lotta:
I checked 'em once, don't remember if there was anything on 'em though. But what if I got sumtin'! I could be witness to a genuine murder! Yeehaw! I'll go check that film. Y'all come back now, y'hear?

Maya:
She went inside her SUV. I guess we should come back later...

Maya:
... I guess Detective Gumshoe is still in that meeting.

Gumshoe:
Hey! Thanks for coming down, pal!

Maya:
Detective Gumshoe!

Gumshoe:
We just finished the meeting. For better or for worse...

Phoenix:
(I get the feeling we're in for some bad news...)


Wright & Co. Law Offices (after clearing "The autopsy report" Talk option in Police Department - Criminal Affairs)

Maya:
...

Phoenix:
What is it?

Maya:
Oh. Nothing... Just, something's been bothering me. ... Could you show me that autopsy report once more? ... ... ... Hey! I-I remember now! This guy! This is a lawyer that was at that office Mia worked at! I met him once when I went there to hang out with Sis!

Phoenix:
That office...? Wait! You mean Grossberg's office?

Maya:
Right! That guy!

Phoenix:
(That was the last name I expected to come up... Maybe I should go talk to him... for old time's sake.)


December 25
Grossberg Law Offices


Phoenix:
It's been a while since I was here last. Mr. Grossberg is out as usual.

Maya:
Hey, Nick. Look at the wall.

Phoenix:
(That painting is still missing... Mia must have known about the deal with Mr. Grossberg and Redd White... She kept track of all of White's extortion and blackmail rackets.)

Lotta:
Hey y'all!

Maya:
Lotta!

Lotta:
Wait up a sec! We got bingo!

Maya:
Bingo...?

Lotta:
My automatic camera took two pictures last night!

Maya:
Hey!

Lotta:
This is them. Take a look!

Phoenix:
Wait...!

Lotta:
See? See? He's shooting him with that pistol!

Phoenix:
I-it looks like that, yes.

Maya:
But you can't really tell who that is shooting.

Lotta:
Yeah, well there was enough fog out there last night t' strangle a bullfrog. But, y'know... Seeing these photos reminded me of something.

Maya:
What...?

Lotta:
I saw the murder happen. I'm a witness!

Maya:
Whaaaaaaa!?

Phoenix:
A-are you serious!?

Lotta:
Course!

Phoenix:
(How do you forget... never mind.)

Lotta:
Y'all reckon I should tell the cops?

Lotta:
Hey, so, I'm off to talk to the cops. Y'all can have this photo. Later.

Phoenix:
W-w-wait! Lotta!

Lotta:
What? Can't y'all see I'm kinda busy?

Phoenix:
T-tell us what you saw, too! Please?

Lotta:
Nice try, honey, but I wasn't born yesterday. I'm a witness, and that means I'm on the side of justice, and that means the cops! I'd sooner eat the south side of a north-bound skunk than tell you!

Maya:
L-Lotta!

Lotta:
Don't let it get your skivvies in a bunch. Friends today, enemies tomorrow! Or was that the other way round? No matter. I'm gone! Hey! Maybe they'll let me do some testifying! Hot darn!

Maya:
She left... ... Well, that's one more witness. What do we do now, Nick?

Phoenix:
(Well, if she saw something, there's not much we can do about it. The question is: what exactly did she see...? I guess we'll find out in the trial tomorrow.)

Lake Photo added to the Court Record.

(Changed from [Looks like the police have given up their questioning.] in the original release)

???:
Hey!

Maya:
Aah! N-Nick! I think Santa's mad at you!

???:
Long time no see, Nick.

Maya:
Nick... you know Santa!? Wow... Nick and St. Nick... Hey! I see the connection!

Phoenix:
Don't be ridiculous!

???:
Dude, it's me!

Phoenix:
L... Larry! What are you doing here!?

Butz:
Isn't it obvious? I'm working my day job! I sell Samurai Dogs! Want one? Gotta get money for dates, you know, My girl Kiyance deserves the best!

Phoenix:
(K-Kiyance...? Not another model, I hope...)

Butz:
Oh, Kiyance's a fine, fine woman, Nick. It was her idea that I wear this costume! She was all "You go girlfriend!" Y'know? She bought this costume for me!

Phoenix:
That... that's great, Larry.

Maya:
Wow! A Santa costume! She must be really nice!

Butz:
Whoa! Cute! Nick! Who's she? She's not your...?

Phoenix:
Not my... what? N-no, she's not!

Maya:
I'm his partner, Maya Fey. I'm, uh, the little sister.

Butz:
Sister...? ... Wow, Nick, must be tough. Working nine to five, having to take care of a little sister...

Maya:
N-no, I'm not Nick's sister, I'm my older sister's little sister...

Butz:
Huh. Sounds great!

Phoenix:
(Don't worry, Maya, he's not listening...)

Maya:
... Not a Gumshoe in sight.

Police:
If you're looking for Detective Gumshoe, he's in the questioning room. Apparently, an important witness turned up. He'll be in there for a while.

Maya:
Lotta Hart... it has to be.

Phoenix:
Uh oh...

Grossberg:
Ah hah! You're Mia's... something, are you not?

Phoenix:
I was her understudy, yes. Phoenix Wright.

Grossberg:
Ah hah! And you, you're Mia's... something too, are you not?

Maya:
Her little sister, yes!

Grossberg:
You've grown! You've come to look a lot like your sister, you know? It takes me back. "Ahh... the days of my youth... like the scent of fresh lemon..." you see.

Phoenix:
Um, Mr. Grossberg, sir?

Grossberg:
Hmm...? Ah, yes. I beg your pardon. Of course you came here to discuss something. What is it then? Something the matter?

Edgeworth:
What's this? I was hoping you'd gotten my message the first time.

Phoenix:
Edgeworth, what about your defense?

Edgeworth:
...! It's no concern of yours.

Phoenix:
(Guess he hasn't found anyone yet.)

After clearing all Talk options and presenting Lake Photo:

Edgeworth:
... Wright.

Phoenix:
?

Edgeworth:
It pains me to ask you this now...

Maya:
I know! You want us to defend you!

Edgeworth:
Yes... Will you?

Phoenix:
This is my chance to finally pay you back.

Maya:
Pay him back...?

Edgeworth:
Pay me back? For what? I don't remember ever doing anything for you.

Phoenix:
Never mind... I guess you don't really need to know.

Edgeworth:
Huh... My letter of request. Please give it to Detective Gumshoe.

Edgeworth's Request put in pocket.

Phoenix:
Well, I guess we should... ... W-what's that!?

Maya:
E-earthquake! Nick! It's a big one! Whaaaaa! I-it's calming down... ... Whew... that was scary!

Phoenix:
...? Huh? Where's Edgeworth?

Maya:
... There. He's on the floor in a ball, shivering. I guess he doesn't do so well with earthquakes.

Phoenix:
(I've heard of running, but curling up in a ball?)

Maya:
Well, I guess we're done. Mr. Edgeworth doesn't seem like he's going to stand up any time soon. Let's go, Nick.

Phoenix:
Uh.. right. We have to give Edgeworth's letter of request to Detective Gumshoe.

Gumshoe:
What's going on here!?

Maya:
Eek!

Phoenix:
W-what's wrong, Detective?

Gumshoe:
This wild lady comes in here just a while ago... Says she came "to talk to y'all after hearing what Mr. Wright had to say"! What's this all about, pal!?

Phoenix:
(Lotta Hart...)

Gumshoe:
Why are you going around finding more witnesses!? You want to give Mr. Edgeworth the death sentence, pal!?

Phoenix:
N-no, not at all... Just... I mean, she did see something. There's nothing I can do about that. I can't go around covering up evidence!

Gumshoe:
Er... You trying to say something about the way I do my job?

Phoenix:
No sir!

Phoenix:
Look what I got.

Gumshoe:
... Hey, you did it, pal! Glad I waited till the last minute to file those papers! I'll rip 'em up and start new ones for you!

Phoenix:
Thanks, Detective. Well, see you in court tomorrow, then.

Gumshoe:
Good luck, pal. Hey! You guys feel that earthquake a little while back? I was worried!

Maya:
Worried? We're fine! I've lived out here my whole life. I'm pretty used to them by now.

Gumshoe:
Oh, I wasn't worried about you two. I was worried about Mr. Edgeworth!

Phoenix:
(Oh, right...) He did seem to over-react a little, now that you mention it.

Gumshoe:
Yeah, well, I'm not surprised. It was a pretty big quake. I'm going to go check on him. You two go eat and get your rest for tomorrow's trial. Later!

Maya:
... I wonder what it is with Mr. Edgeworth and earthquakes?

Phoenix:
I wonder... He was never that scared of them when he was in school.


Phoenix:
( (Changed from [Then again, I was only in the same class as him for 4th grade.] in the original release) He transferred to another school after that. I wonder what happened to Edgeworth...)

To be continued.
