Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Justice For All/Episode 3: Turnabout Big Top

The case starts with a circus act. We are introduced to Maximillion Galactica, a magician with the power to fly. He flies through the stage, then wraps his cape around his entire body and disappears within it, wowing the crowd.

Outside the tent, it turns out you, Maya, and Pearl just watched the whole circus show (dancing bears, elephants on balls, tigers through rings, the works), and of course Max Galactica. Phoenix tells you (the player) that it's been six months since the incident at the Kurain Village, and it's almost New Years. You decide to clean up office, hoping nothing could go wrong... you were wrong...
