regardless of simon's sadness, it's kinda cool seeing edgeworth go defense attorney mode!

This has definitely been one of the best parts of the case! I like how this actually feels like a real conflict for Edgeworth here. This is maybe the most development he's gotten as a character since 1-4, and it's well written.

Leonhart4 posted... Ray Shields is a double reference to his job as a defense attorney. Shields for defense, of course, and he's a ray of hope for his clients.

He also has an excellent theme song.

Ahh. That makes sense.

So after agreeing to be Ray's assistants, we move on to the next order of business, which is finding out where the scream came from. Elbird first lied about hearing a scream, but eventually we figure out that there was a scream, he just didn'tactually hear it. There was another prisoner who missed the Animal Talent Show, and he's the one who first saw the body and did the scream.

Oh yeah,I forgot to mention that the Berry Big Circus is back. Not only does this prison have a bunch of farm and exotic animals running around, it apparently has monthly circus performances. Gotta say, as much as I dislike 2-3, I didn't mind the circus coming back in this game. I'm all about that world building, bay-bee!

Speaking of characters returning, the person who discovered the body is none other than the primordial ur-witness/culprit from 1-1, Mr. Frank Sahwit. I guess it's nice seeing him again. If Sahwit's still around that means all the other murderers from the prior cases are hanging out in here, maybe. Of course, I'd rather this have been Luke Atmey or Matt Engarde or... pretty much anyone else but I guess having Sahwit here is a nice call back. But wouldn't Acro have been even better? Then it could've been a "true sequel" to 2-3, kind of.

Sahwit is about exactly as I remember him: really bad at lying. The prison system seems to be working for him, as he's into pet grooming now and is all about slathering mud on animals. The pink glove next to the body belongs to him. He dropped it as he went in to try and loot the corpse. His bracelet is broken (the one that keeps prisoners from opening doors but allows animals to)(by the way, this particular plot point is contrived). The most important things we learn are that he saw a dog near the body and that they let him keep his toupee. There's not really anything suspicious about Mr. Sahwit, or should I say, Mr. Didn't-do-it.

At this point, my memory is slightly hazy of what exactly happened next. We either go investigate the detention center cell or the courtyard next. I think we also meet the warden at some point. Regardless, I'll talk about both in the next post. Thanks for the comments and the tags! Also, if I get something wrong or skip over something, feel free to let me know. I'm kind of writing these posts from memory. I'm currently finishing up E2-3 (which is apparently when this game blasts off into the stratosphere).
