Topic	Finally playing Edgeworth 2 (spoilers)
colliding 05/16/21 5:36:55 PM #55:	No takers on the AAI recap (totally fine), so let's move on to E2-3: The Inherited Turnabout. It opens with a commercial/promo for an old television show: "Piece of Cake," a baking/dancing program for kids, starring the world's best baker, Jeff Master, and his assistant Kate Whatshername. When I think of "memorable intro cinematics" in the AA series, I think of 1-4, 1-5, and 3-2 - intros that generate intrigue and excitement simultaneously, setting the stage without giving everything away. Add E2-3's intro to the top 5, cause I love it. I love that it has English voice acting, I love that the lyrics seem to match the song, I love the weird Lynchian combination of wholesome domestic cooking show and vaudevillian murder scenario. Bravo. In the present day, Edgeworth and Ray Shields walk into a museum, where Ray tells Edgeworth to have a seat on his knee and listen to a story. A story about baking and intrigue, ice cream and murder! It's the IS-7 incident, the infamous case that led to Edgeworth's dad, Gregory (sometimes referred to in these write ups as "Gregsworth") facing off against Von Karma and getting him penalized, shattering his perfect record and giving old Manfred a motive for murder. This is a story that I never really thought needed to be told, but now that it is I'm glad. Despite being the straightest of straight arrows, Gregsworth is also king, in his noir trenchcoat and fedora. He is stern but caring, serious and earnest. His perfectly average/normal character design works in his favor in that it positions him as someone who cares about his work and others more than himself. Young Ray is the perfect assistant for him; it's nice to finally have a full-time male assistant. He's funny when he needs to be and never gets annoying, and his paper eating animation is top notch. In this case our defendant is Jeff Master, an uncanny amalgamation of Paul Hollywood and Chad from Bleach.He doesn't give us too many details about the crime; all we need to know now is if he is guilty or not. He says he is innocent, and Gregory, being a stalwart defense attorney, believes in his client's innocence. He sings Gregsworth and Ray a little song in the detention center. There's a subtle sense of tragedy throughout this entire case, because we as the player know that this doesn't end well for Master or Gregory. This really helps moments like this shine. The murder, coincidentally enough, takes place in the exact same venue that Miles and old Ray find themselves in the present day. What connections exist between the past and present? Will Miles be able to find out the truth of what happened 18 years ago? How will this experience push or pull him toward or away from the prosecutorial path?
