Maya seems traumatized by Morgan's possible part of the murder, and wonders why she would do such a thing. Von Karma then enters and taunts you. You tell her even if you do lose, it won't bring her father back. Von Karma seems careless and she and you reenter the court room.
Trial continues
The Judge has Ini testify about the accident.
Ini's Testimony: Last Year's Accident
- That was... like, last year, in May.
- Like, something really bad had happened at, like, my sister's clinic around then...
- And like, the night of the accident, my sis was totally tired while she was driving.
- I was, like, totally pooped too, so I, like, fell asleep in the passenger's seat...
- I, like, woke up 'cause of a jolt, and, like, it was a sea of flames around me.
- I, like, opened the door and, like, got away.
Mia says it's impossible to prove Ini's motive directly, so you'll have to look at this in another angle.
Last Year's Accident: Cross-Examination
Press on Ini's third statement. Then Press harder. If Mimi was so tired, why didn't they talk about switching drivers? Ini says she didn't have a drivers license. She adds it to her testimony.
- I, like, didn't have my license, so, like, I couldn't take over driving for her.
Now you're on target! Present the License Photo. Ini says she got the license about half a year after the accident. There is no proof of Ini ever receiving the license before the accident. Even if she had one, Mimi wouldn't let her drive. Mia asks why. Ini answers with another testimony. Hopefully you get some real answers.
Ini's Testimony: I Wouldn't Be Allowed
- Like, around that time, I was, like, really close to getting my license.
- My sis was, like, this totally big fan of cars and, like, really valued them.
- She, like, had just gotten this really shiny, bright red sports car.
- She, like, would say things like, "No way am I letting a newb drive my car!"
- So, like, that's why I ended up in the passenger's seat that night too.
I Wouldn't Be Allowed: Cross-Examination
Press on Ini's third statement. She says it's a new sports car from the U.K. Press harder. The Judge will have Ini revise her statement.
- My sis' new car was, like, a totally special model from England.
Press on that statement. You are given a choice, choose Ask for the heck of it. Ini mentions the driver's seat is on the right side of the car, rather than the left. The right!? Present Newspaper Clipping 2 on the same statement. In the article, Ini mentions that she escaped on the right side of the car, and since it is the British car, the right side would be the driver's seat. And Ini was sitting on that seat!
Solving the case
This leaves one question, who was driving the car? You are given a choice. If Ini was in the passenger's seat, then it will have to be Mimi Miney. If Ini was in the driver's seat and escaped, and yet Mimi was driving the car yet was killed, this leaves one question: Who is the woman on the stand now? Present Mimi Miney's Profile. The woman doesn't look like Mimi, but Phoenix informs the court that the resulting burn was so severe; "Ini" had to go to do plastic surgery to reconstruct her face. Instead of her own face, Mimi probably used her sister's picture to become Ini.
Dr. Grey tried to use Maya to talk with Mimi, but was killed, why? Mimi wasn't dead as Dr. Grey thought she was. He would've found out during the channeling, so the woman had to do drastic measures to ensure Dr. Grey doesn't find out alive.
The Truth Revealed
The woman will finally give in to your claim and will admit that she is in fact Mimi Miney, Ini's sister, who is thought to be dead. She also admits to killing Dr. Grey. Mimi threw away her life and continued her sister's. But why? Present Newspaper Clipping 1. The fact of fourteen patients dying and the loss of her sister is too much for Mimi to bear. Her face burnt at the accident, she used Ini's picture to leave her past behind and start a life as her own sister.
With Mimi's confession, this leaves one question, why would Morgan go to the trouble of helping Mimi for the murder? You won't have to worry about that now as...
Maya Fey is found...
What really happened
It was one year ago, Mimi Miney, a nurse at the Grey Surgical Clinic, ran by Turner Grey, made a grave mistake in malpractice, killing 14 patients in the hospital. The incident would come to haunt Mimi, but a few weeks later, her life changed forever. As she was driving home from work in her British sports car, with her sister, Ini Miney the passenger, Mimi fell asleep since she was exhausted from answering questions regarding the malpractice incident. Suddenly, a jolt woke her up and a few seconds later, a sea of flames surrounded her. Mimi was able to escape the blazing vehicle alive, though badly burnt. Ini was not so lucky and was burned to death.
Mimi's face was disfigured, so she needed medical attention and surgery bad. The sudden loss of her sister and the incident weeks prior scarred Mimi too much. Mimi used Ini's picture to have her face reconstructed as Ini, ditching her entire life and starting a new one as her own sister.
The papers have presumed Mimi dead and some blamed Dr. Grey for the events that transpired. Dr. Grey was repulsed, as the accusations caused the number of patients he has to drop. The only way to stop the accusations is to have Mimi admit to the crimes. Mimi was dead however (or as the papers say). Dr. Grey went to ask an occult fan, who was Mimi Miney posing as Ini. Mimi was forced to tell him all about Kurain Village, and the Kurain Channeling Technique because she was, after all, posing as an occult fan. He went to the Kurain Village (with Lotta tagging along, to study paranormal stuff) to have Maya Fey, one of the mediums in training and daughter of the missing master, channel Mimi so Mimi can sign a confession. Maya would do so if he brought along Phoenix Wright, a defense attorney and a great friend of Maya. Dr. Grey did so.
Mimi, as Ini, feared that he would learn that she is still alive, since spirit mediums can not channel the living. Mimi plotted to kill Dr. Grey, for the sake of her identity. She consulted help from Morgan Fey, who, for some reason, decided to help Mimi.
Mimi grabbed Maya's uniform and a wig that matches Maya's hair. Before the channeling began, she took a large clothing box and hid it behind the folding screen at the Channeling Chamber, where, as the name suggests, the channeling will take place. Mimi hid behind the folding screen holding a fruit knife that belongs to the Fey family. Dr. Grey and Maya enter the room with the key, which is used to lock the door.
The channeling began, and, silently, Mimi snuck up on the two and drugged Maya with a sleeping agent. Maya passed out and Mimi then got to Grey and stabbed him in the chest, seemingly killing him.
Mimi dragged the sleeping Maya over to and inside the clothing box. Dr. Grey was still alive and fired a shot at Mimi, (presuming that it's her spirit) but missed, leaving a bullet hole in the folding screen, the clothing box, and Maya's left sleeve. Mimi took the gun from Grey's half-dead body, and finished him off by shooting in the forehead from point-blank range.
Hearing the gunshots, Phoenix and Lotta, who were waiting in the Meditation Room for the channeling, busted in, seeing Mimi (also presuming it's her spirit Maya is channeling) and Dr. Grey's lifeless body. Lotta took a couple of pictures before Morgan kicked both Phoenix and Lotta out.
Morgan took the clothes and wig Mimi is wearing and the key and threw them in the incinerator. They pour Dr. Grey's blood on Maya's clothes and rearranged the crime scene so it looked like Maya had done it.
Meanwhile, at Winding Way as the channeling and murder take place, Pearl Fey, Maya's cousin and Morgan's daughter, was playing with her ball when she accidentally knocked over the sacred urn that was supposed to contain the spirit of Ami Fey, the founder of the Kurain Channeling Technique. The fall shattered the urn. Fortunately, the pieces were big, so Pearl was able to fix it. However, she did it poorly. The urn even said I AM rather than AMI due to Pearl's illiteracy. Neither Morgan nor Mimi saw Pearl, so their alibi would eventually be broken.
Reunion, and Turnabout: Ending
After a happy reunion between Maya and her dead sister, Maya asks Phoenix why Morgan would help Ini kill Dr. Grey and frame Maya for the murder and ultimately send her to prison. Present Pearl Fey's Profile. The reason Morgan wanted Maya to be hauled off to prison, is because without both sisters eligible for the Masters position (Maya in jail and Mia dead), the village would have to use someone from the branch family to get the Masters position. Pearl would be that member, since her powers are far superior compared to Maya.
Morgan, meanwhile, is hauled off to prison for aiding a murderer. However, she isn't giving up as she still has plans to give Pearl the Master's position...
