|title=Cross Examining Blackquill: Bad Ending | |||
|contents= | |||
If you deplete your Confidence Gauge at any point during Blackquill's testimony, you will get the first of three bad endings. | |||
{{spoiler|The Judge stops you and declares that Blackquill remains guilty for the murder of Dr. Cykes. The next day, he's executed. Aura Blackquill disappears, with Trucy and other hostages alongside. Athena leaves the agency, Apollo is completely broken by the events and stops smiling. Finally, you give up being a lawyer for good, realizing your failure.}} | |||

When Blackquill entered the robotics lab, he saw Athena standing between her mother's corpse and the bloody katana, and then she said she was going to "fix" her mother. It seems Athena was the killer after all. Phoenix tries to object, but Athena takes the stand anyways and confesses to the murder, mentioning how the blood ran from the weapon's handle to her fingers after she stabbed her. Before the verdict can be announced, Phoenix will object again, knowing there's still a fraction of the truth sealed off deep inside Athena's heart. | When Blackquill entered the robotics lab, he saw Athena standing between her mother's corpse and the bloody katana, and then she said she was going to "fix" her mother.

The judge will ask you what's wrong with Athena's confession. '''Present''' the '''Katana'''. There's no way blood could've gotten onto her fingers if there's no blood on the handle itself. This creates a contradiction between memories and evidence, and you need to solve it. Say that "'''The defendant used a different weapon'''". There's a clue in the crime scene photos about what other blade could've been there. '''Present''' the '''Utility Knife'''. There was a toolkit at the scene, but no knife was ever found. You have to prove the knife was there. You will suggest that a certain pattern can prove a utility knife was at the scene. '''Present Robots with a Heart'''. The GYAXA logo on the toolkit is completed if you add the knife! | The judge will ask you what's wrong with Athena's confession. '''Present''' the '''Katana'''.

Edgeworth will brush off all your allegations, claiming that as long as only Athena and her mother were at the scene, no one else could've been the killer. This time, Phoenix starts to despair, but a defense lawyer never gives up, even when things are at their worst! | Edgeworth will brush off all your allegations, claiming that as long as only Athena and her mother were at the scene, no one else could've been the killer.

Edgeworth will point out that Dr. Cykes's jacket was found at the scene. That means '''the killer brought it back''', especifically in the split-second moment '''when the body was found'''. | Edgeworth will point out that Dr. Cykes's jacket was found at the scene.

If you deplete your Confidence Gauge when answering either of the last two questions (about Dr. Cykes's jacket), you will get the second of three bad endings. | |||
{{spoiler|Despite your allegations, Aura Blackquill isn't convinced of Athena's full innocence. She takes Athena away, and you never hear from her again.}} | |||
