Phoenix Wright made his debut in court 10 years ago today in "The First Turnabout"! As the defense, he won the case for long time friend Larry Butz.

It's been 10 years since Cindy Stone's untimely death.

Machi will still need to face another trial for his actions in the smuggling, but Lamiroir is feeling hopeful. In fact, she is considering an eye operation. Hopefully she'll recover her memories one day.

Apollo has built a solid case that points to Daryan as the killer. With no decisive evidence, he turns to Machi to finally confess the truth. At least he won't face death here, and of course is declared not guilty!

One more, for old times' sake.

Borginian cocoons are banned for import due to being able to make poison, but it can also be used as a cure, something that would be very valuable to the Chief Justice. Daryan has never been overseas, so he had an accomplice, one Machi Tobaye!

Daryan testifies that he couldn't possibly be the shooter, but the new evidence has proven the possibility exists. The motive seems to be related to the Borginian cocoon, but why?

During recess, Phoenix pops in to say he's on a secret mission. Also, he provides some new evidence for Apollo.

Court reconvenes and Lamiroir is called to testify. The illusion during her performance is revealed, along with the truth about the switch, the fire. And the "small window." The incident happened during the second set! It's time to call Daryan to the stand.

Apollo knows Machi can't be the killer, but Machi won't talk more. Who else can testify to the truth? I guess it's not quite yet winning time for "Yoostis."

Not only is Machi not blind, he knows English after all! What else was he withholding? He found the body and left the scene, but he doesn't seem to want to say more for some reason.

Apollo is prepared for today's trial, but it's being delayed for 30 minutes, as the Judge is visiting the hospital again. The Chief Justice's son's condition seems to be worsening. Could this be the cause of Incuritis?

Lamiroir seems to be okay now. She reveals she was attacked by someone. The lump is actually a Borginian cocoon, which can be made into a cure. Just as Machi was to speak further, they're conveniently cut off by Daryan. Guess they'll have to settle this in court tomorrow.

Lamiroir is missing. Apollo and Trucy help Ema search for her at the Coliseum. They were able to find her in a peculiar spot, but what happened to her?!

Apollo and Trucy meet Prosecutor Gavin at this office where they find a replica of a mysterious lump that LeTouse was supposedly after. Could this be related to the case? Maybe Lamiroir can shed some light on the matter.

Investigation continues. The headset lying on the floor backstage is finally picked up! They discover the remote switch activated an igniter. Meanwhile, they still can't communicate with Machi, though Apollo finds this suspect. Perhaps a visit to Gavin's office will help.

At the concert stage, Apollo asks Valant about the Lamiroir's stunt, but his lips are sealed. He does, however, speak a moment about Troupe Gramarye. Their attention is soon diverted to an unknown remote.

The magician appears before Apollo and Trucy. It's Valant Gramarye from Troupe Gramarye, partner to Trucy's biological father. He gifts Apollo with a videotape of the concert. Lovely.

LeTouse turned out to be an Interpol agent! Why did he write his ID? While Lamiroir didn't see the crime, she recognized the voice of the supposed killer belonging to... the guitarist for the Gavinners, Detective Crescend? The trial comes to an abrupt end for the day.

The court briefly learns about Lamiroir's mysterious past. Not only that, but she's really blind and Machi isn't! Through luminol testing, LeTouse's dying message is uncovered, likely wiped by the killer. It'll be some time before the court learns what the message means.

No time to waste as Machi's trial begins. His Honor seems to be in a hurry too, as he plans to visit the Chief Justice's son who is ill. Detective Skye explains the incident and why Machi is the culprit. Things look bad for Apollo until he calls Lamiroir to the stand.

Apollo has been called on to defend Machi. Unfortunately, he can't communicate with his client at all. Well, guess that's the end of things today!

The body has been found on top of the tower, along with the blind pianist Machi Tobaye?!

The investigation continues past midnight. Unfortunately, Apollo wasn't watching the body, which had just gone missing!

Apollo helps Klavier resolve a different matter with bandmate Daryan. Meanwhile, Trucy discovers that the current incident follows the lyrics to "The Guitar's Serenade." The mysterious magician briefly appears again, and Apollo and Trucy speak with Lamiroir once more.

A mysterious figure appears before Apollo and Trucy just as suddenly as he vanished. I wonder who that was.

Klavier's keys were found in LeTouse's left hand. Detective Skye has also theorized that the murder weapon has quite the kickback. Sounds like a solid argument for who the killer could and couldn't be!

While the investigation is underway, Apollo and Trucy have a very important conversation.
