Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Trials and Tribulations/Episode 1: Turnabout Memories

We see two men arguing. One man is warning another man about some woman, saying that it would be bad news if he continues to hang out with her. The latter refuses to believe this and eventually snaps. We then see an electric spark. We cut to a man, lying down and not moving. We see the latter's face. "I didn't do it!" pleads Phoenix Wright.
