Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney/Episode 4: Turnabout Goodbyes
 |
Christmas Eve: two men stand in a rowboat in the middle of a lake talking about their younger days. One says he has suffered for too long and, thus, wants revenge. He suddenly shoots the other man with a gun. The victim falls into the lake, as Miles Edgeworth leaves him to his watery grave. Wait! Miles Edgeworth?! The prosecutor? If he shot him, what did the other man do to him? What grudge did Edgeworth have against him? What kind of suffering did he go through? How can he possibly kill another man?
