Things are bleak. Phoenix goes into day two of the Jack Hammer murder trial knowing he's facing an uphill fight to assert Will Powers's innocence. If he's going to have any chance of uncovering the truth; he's going to have to see through the lies of a greasy director and a dedicated fanboy while overcoming Prosecutor Edgeworth's evidence and the suspicions of the Judge.

Despite having a full understanding of what occurred during the events of the Gourd Lake incident, Wright and Maya have been forced into a situation where they have no decisive evidence to prove their point which means that testimony will have to be what seals the deal... ... But whose testimony is a completely different matter.
Miles Edgeworth has stood before the court and confessed to the murder of his own father 15 years ago.

The unknown object Wright pointed out in Angel Starr's photo has arrived along with a new face who has yet even more pertinent information regarding this case, but will it hurt or hinder Lana Skye's defense?
Lana's defense survives the first day in court, but only because the pursuit of the truth has resulted in more questions than answers. Having learned that the victim, Detective Bruce Goodman, appears to have died simultaneously in two different locations at the same time- Wright is back out investigating to see where the truth leads next and if it can clear his client's name.
"Detective Goodman was killed in two different places at the same time" Impossible... right? Coming into the second day of court nobody knows what to expect other than a curious case getting even stranger as Goodman's "other murderer" takes the stand!
With the "how" of the simultaneous murder figured out, Wright's only remaining hope to keep the trial alive is to prove "who" and hope more information comes to life from doing so...

It's the end. One last chance to bring the truth to light and put two cases to bed once and for all. But it won't be that easy with a witness who is hell-bent on taking the rap for it.
