Remember how in AA1 von Karma presented false evidence, and he got away with a single penalty that didn't affect his case in the slightest?

And still won the case! Zak was going to get instantly declared guilty because the only conclusion for why a defense attorney would use forged evidence is because his client is guilty.

The way Dual Destinies handles this plot point is hilarious. They basically have to tiptoe around it because it sounds dumber the longer you think, and because Apollo Justice put Phoenix in a role without considering the world it had built up until that point. Edgeworth shows up and goes 'eeey sorry I couldn't help you out back then', and it's like, why Edgeworth? Why couldn't you or anyone else help Phoenix out back then? Why couldn't Phoenix help Phoenix out back then?

Yeah, it's just wild how it happens. They make Maya go away with absolutely zero explanation despite showing her and Phoenix together merely days before 4-0 in AAI1 and AAI2. Like, did she take off for Khura'in the day before 4-0? It's weird how everyone, including Phoenix, just kinda resigns themselves to "well there's nothing we can do" for seven years.
