in the trial seven years ago, Blackquill was the only one that passed the corridor to the crime scene. The '''Seven-Year-Old Video''' will be updated in the Court Record. Edgeworth will explain Athena's motive: because of her mother's research, she believed that her only way out of that "suffering" was to kill her! Can it be true?

== The horrible truth? ==
== The horrible truth? ==
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.


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!

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!
 
== Revisualizing the case ==
Ponco saw Athena stabbing someone with the utility knife, but when Blackquill entered the robotics lab, he never saw it. So, the knife must've been taken by '''someone else'''. A third person is the only way Athena could be innocent; but why didn't Ponco detect anyone? The person must've hidden '''their own face''', and then posed as '''Metis Cykes''' to make Ponco believe there were only two people in the lab, and used '''her jacket''' to do so. But the heart detection system still remains. If Dr. Cykes was already dead by the time Ponco arrived, then Athena must've stabbed '''the real culprit'''!
 
Phoenix will now explain this theory to the court, and the mention of a mask will trigger the breaking of the five black Psyche-Locks. Athena will now remember everything - stabbing the intruder in the hand, trying to fix her mother in the operating table. The '''Utility Knife''' will be updated in the Court Record.
 
Before the judge can declare Athena innocent, Aura intervenes, claiming there's no proof this "culprit" ever existed. When prompted, '''present''' the '''Seven-Year-Old Video'''. A mysterious man appears at 2 PM, matching up perfectly with Athena's memores.
 
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'''.
 
== Nearing the end...? ==
Edgeworth and Aura both concede your argument. Now, Blackquill will return to the stand and describe the culprit. A spy known as "the phantom" with a totally unknown identity. At some point, a voice recording was obtained and sent to Dr. Cykes for analysis. The spy probably was after it during that day, but never actually found it, because Blackquill kept it with him for the last seven years. The '''Phantom's Psych Profile''' will be added to the Court Record.
 
The judge will now overturn the verdict of Blackquill's trial seven years ago, but before he can hand down a verdict for Athena, Apollo suddenly shows up, demanding the trial to continue. What is going on!?
