[PHOENIX WRIGHT, spoken]
9:20? Oh no!
Alright Phoenix, pull yourself together! You can still make it! Hang on, Chief, I'm coming!
[sung]
Forty minutes 'til the trial starts and I'm half an hour away
I've got the shakes, my body aches, and my hair's in disarray
But I stayed up all night reading files, so I know what I'm gonna say
I'm secure, and I'm sure I'll endure on this August day!
[spoken]
Okay...
[sung]
Today's the day I'll need to prove I'm the best
And the world is watching my inaugural test
But am I truly prepared?
If pressed, I'd confess I'm a bit stressed and scared
Can I bring justice to light? Can I fight?
I'll try and if I don't cry, then I'll do alright!
I can hope and dream and pray
That I'll win on this August day!
[spoken]
Oh, excuse me!
[MARVIN GROSSBERG]
See that man running like hе's in some race?
[PHOENIX, spoken]
Pardon me, sorry...
[LOTTA HART, spoken]
Spiky-hairеd jerk!
[sung]
He almost ran through me!
[PHOENIX, spoken]
Watch it!
[GROSSBERG]
I think he's part of that big murder case
[PHOENIX, spoken]
Coming through!
[LOTTA]
Sure looks guilty to me!
[DICK GUMSHOE]
Today's the day my paycheck comes in the mail!
[MAGGEY BYRDE]
You won't need to borrow bus fare from the guys in jail!
[GUMSHOE, spoken]
That's right!
[LANA SKYE]
Those with our authority
[MILES EDGEWORTH]
Must maintain the peace in our society
[GUMSHOE]
Maggey?
[MAGGEY]
Hm?
[GUMSHOE]
Ya see, there's been something on my mind
[MAGGEY]
Well, what?
[GUMSHOE]
I, well... You look nice!
[MAGGEY]
Thanks, how kind!
[SKYE]
This modern world needs our best
Our finest have no time to rest!
Another day, another chase
Ensure another winning case!
[EDGEWORTH]
Mr. Payne
[WINSTON PAYNE]
Yes?
[EDGEWORTH]
A word, please. I'd like to be quite clear
[PAYNE]
…Y-yes?
[EDGEWORTH]
Your career is on the line in court today
[PAYNE]
My career?!
Don't worry, sir! I'm sure that I can get that guilty verdict!
[EDGEWORTH]
No more failures
When you prosecute, you must learn to be perfect!
[MIA FEY, spoken]
Phoenix Wright, you're late
[PHOENIX, spoken]
Sorry, Chief
[MIA, spoken]
"Sorry" doesn't cut it in a murder trial! Mr. Butz is counting on you!
Uh... Are you going to be okay, Wright?
[PHOENIX, spoken]
I have to be, for Larry's sake. Ever since we were kids he's been, well... unlucky. As the saying went, "When something smells..."
[LARRY BUTZ, spoken]
Guilty!
[PHOENIX, spoken]
...It's usually the Butz
[LARRY, spoken]
I'm guilty, you hear?! Put me on death row! Life's not worth living without my Cindy! The Cleopatra to my Marc Antony! The Juliet to my Romeo! The Padmé to my Anakin!
[PHOENIX, spoken]
Larry, didn't they all die?
[LARRY, spoken]
Nick...!
[MIA, spoken]
Um, Mr. Butz? My name is Mia Fey. I'll be helping Phoenix defend you as his co-counsel. We should clear up a few things before court
What were you doing on the day of the murder?
[LARRY, spoken]
I went to her apartment... Cindy's. But she wasn't there... so I left
[MIA, spoken]
Was she expecting you?
[LARRY, spoken]
Well...
[PHOENIX, spoken]
You were dumped. Again
[LARRY, spoken]
Hey! She didn't dump me! She was just taking a break from me... forever
[MIA, spoken]
Things could get ugly in there. Your client clearly has a motive for murder, and I heard the prosecution has a key witness
But as long as you believe in your client, you'll be okay. Ready, Wright?
[PHOENIX, spoken]
Yes, Mia... I mean, Chief!
[MIA, spoken]
Good. Now buckle up, buttercup. The courtroom war is about to begin
[sung]
Stand tall and face all your fears, one by one
Don't get too rattled! Your battle has just begun!
[ALL]
So will this Phoenix take flight...
[PHOENIX]
...Off the ground?
[Simultaneous 1:]
[PHOENIX]
I'll soar with glory, my story will be renowned!
[Simultaneous 2:]
[EVERYONE]
Ahh, ahh, ahh, he'll be renowned!
[ALL]
Now let's get this trial underway!
[Simultaneous 1:]
[PHOENIX]
My courtroom premiere! I will persevere!
I'm here on this clear...
[Simultaneous 2:]
[EVERYONE]
Will there be justice for all
On this...
[ALL]
August day!
