Phoenix wright foolish

Wright initially refused to accompany her and Pearl to the temple, but quickly changed his mind upon seeing one of the nuns in the article, as she looked identical to his university girlfriend, Dahlia Hawthorne. At the temple, Wright met Larry Butz again, as well as the Hawthorne doppelganger, who was a nun named Iris. Wright also met the head nun, Bikini , and Butz's new "teacher", Elise Deauxnim. However, that night Bikini witnessed Iris stabbing Deauxnim with the temple's Shichishito sword and told Wright to call the police using a phone near Dusky Bridge , only for said bridge to be ablaze upon his arrival.

Fearing for Maya, who was training in the Inner Temple 's Sacred Cavern on the other side of the bridge, he told Butz to call the police while he ran across, only for the bridge to break underneath him and drop the attorney into the Eagle River far below. Reading about Mia's first case while recovering in the Hotti Clinic.

Edgeworth found out about the accident from a panicked Butz and quickly rushed to see Wright in the hospital.

Fortunately, Wright suffered only minor injuries and a cold because of his misadventure. He asked Edgeworth to fill in as Iris's defense until he recovered and gave both his attorney's badge and magatama to the prosecutor.

As Edgeworth left to investigate the murder, Wright researched Mia's first case , which had seen Hawthorne nearly implicated for murder, only for the defendant to kill himself, thereby stopping the trial. The next day, Wright left the hospital and took over where Edgeworth had left off. The bridge was repaired, but Maya was locked inside the Inner Temple. Wright soon ran into Godot, who told him that he should have protected Mia. As Wright wondered about this remark, he discovered that Hawthorne had been executed a month prior and that Iris was her twin sister.

During the trial the following day, Wright faced Godot in court once again. To his surprise, Iris suddenly offered herself up as a witness against Maya Fey, but Wright eventually realized that "Iris" was actually Hawthorne, who was being channeled.

Hawthorne claimed that Maya had killed herself out of guilt for murdering her own mother, but Wright realized the truth; Maya had channeled Hawthorne to protect herself, after channeling Mia to ask for her help.

As a channeled Mia appeared in Pearl's body to tell Hawthorne that she would never win against her, an enraged and defeated Hawthorne left Maya's body.

Godot then demanded that Wright face him alone, without the help from Mia that had saved Wright in his previous trials. Wright took on this final challenge and implicated Godot as Misty's killer.

The truth soon came out: Godot had been a colleague of Mia's called Diego Armando who Hawthorne had poisoned before meeting Wright in the courthouse all those years ago. Godot had been acting with such hostility to Wright as he blamed him for Mia's death, but finally accepted that he really blamed himself for not being there to protect her after falling into a poison-induced coma. It was also revealed that Iris had been the one meeting Wright for the whole time in which he had dated Hawthorne, with the exception of the first and final encounters.

Wright forgave Iris for lying to him all those years ago and told her that he had still somehow believed in her, regardless of the events of that trial. Godot then shared one last cup of coffee with Wright before the trial ended.

Wright and the others later visited Iris in the detention center. Wright had his eyes on Iris for their entire conversation, thereby showing that he had some lingering feelings for her, but Pearl slapped him for what she saw as disloyalty to Maya, giving him a nosebleed.

A month after Iris's trial, Wright, Maya, and Pearl went on a trip to Gatewater Land , where they all went on a ride on a rowboat together. Edgeworth also happened to be in Gatewater Land, although he was there on business. Two weeks later, Wright and Maya were spotted once again near a crime scene being investigated by Edgeworth. This time they were looking at the Grand Tower skyscraper, astonished by the wonders of concrete masonry.

However, they were prevented from encountering the crime scene and Edgeworth by a large barrier put in place around the filming lot where the investigation was taking place. During the investigations into an international smuggling ring and several older cases , Wright's friends and associates would occasionally refer to him, but never by name.

Instead, he was mentioned in various vague, indirect ways "him", "the man in the blue suit", "a certain defense attorney", and so on. In April of , Zak Gramarye , a famous magician at the time, called Wright to his detention cell. The magician challenged him to a game of poker, which Wright won. He then asked Wright to be his lawyer, as he was suspected of having killed his master, Magnifi Gramarye.

He had just recently fired his previous lawyer and the trial was scheduled for the next morning, but Wright reluctantly agreed to take the case. The next day in court, a mysterious girl gave Wright a piece of paper that seemed to have been ripped out of a journal. He took it into court with him, where he faced rookie prosecutor Klavier Gavin. Wright was able to show that Zak's stage partner Valant Gramarye had the opportunity and motive to kill Magnifi.

In the end, Gavin presented Magnifi's diary , which had a page ripped out. Wright in turn presented the piece of paper that the girl had given him, as it seemed to be the missing page, but Gavin declared that the evidence was fraudulent, calling a forger called Drew Misham to the stand, who confirmed that he had made the page.

The trial abruptly ended soon after, but when Zak took the stand to receive his sentence, he disappeared into thin air, and no verdict was ever given. Wright was then put before a Bar Association hearing.

They determined that he was responsible for the forgery and all of them, except Kristoph Gavin , voted for Wright's disbarment. Even after losing his badge, however, it was apparent that the judge who had presided over the majority of his previous trials and those involved with the law still held him in somewhat high esteem.

This event became the foundation of what would become known as the " dark age of the law ", with the trial of Simon Blackquill the following year starting this so-called "age" in earnest. Two weeks after the Gramarye trial, Wright took in Zak's abandoned daughter Trucy , the same girl who had given him the evidence that ended his career, and raised her as his own, after failing to find any close kin.

He also became friends with Kristoph Gavin, and the two of them met often over the following seven years. Wright suspected that Kristoph was somehow related to the forged evidence, but as he had no proof, he secretly continued his investigation. Wright questioned the bailiff who had chased Zak after he disappeared, confirming that Trucy had helped her father with his disappearing act.

He then questioned Drew Misham, finding out that his daughter Vera was the real forger and confirmed that Kristoph had requested the forgery. Wright then questioned Valant, who had fallen under suspicion due to speculation that Zak had disappeared to protect him. In the years that followed, Wright's office was reformed as the Wright Talent Agency , which was mostly a place to store the materials for Trucy's magic shows.

Wright was hired as an underground poker player at the Borscht Bowl Club , but also posed as their piano player. The poker games were purely for the competition, however, as his main source of income was Trucy's magic shows. He also learned that Trucy could read subtle body language, and so used her in his poker games to beat all of his opponents.

Wright would also go abroad to study foreign judicial systems. Wright questioned Zak about his intentions and the Gramarye family, learning that Kristoph's new student Apollo Justice was Magnifi's grandson, Thalassa's son, and Trucy's half-brother. Magnifi and his descendants had the power to read subtle body language, and Justice had a bracelet that allowed him to use this ability much more easily.

Wright decided to use Justice to reach the truth about his last case. Zak also wrote a letter confessing to Magnifi's death, despite his innocence, and handed Wright a will passing on the legal rights to Magnifi's magic tricks to Trucy , with a reporter named Spark Brushel present to notarize the will. Zak then challenged Wright to a poker game. The dealer, Olga Orly , had been planted by Zak to plant an extra card on Wright to make it look like he was cheating, but by sheer luck, Wright came across the card on his person and stowed it away.

Furious at the failed trap, Zak hit Orly with a bottle, knocking her out. Wright moved upstairs to call the police, only to find Zak's dead body upon his return. Wright called Kristoph to defend him, but when the latter mentioned Zak's baldness, Wright realized that something was wrong, since Kristoph should have been unaware of that information. Wright replaced the hat on Zak's head, put a drop of the victim's blood on an ace of spades, and left to call the police. He was shortly thereafter arrested on suspicion of "Shadi Smith's" murder.

Wright surprised Kristoph by hiring the latter's student, Apollo Justice, as his lawyer. The judge recognized Wright, but the former defense attorney insisted that the past not be discussed for the moment. With Justice at the helm of the defense team, Wright was able to convince him that the case was not as clear-cut as Kristoph was trying to make it out to be.

Orly, the sole witness, had not killed Shadi Smith; someone else had. Wright had Trucy give Justice the ace of spades that he had picked up , which would turn out to be crucial evidence. Wright and Justice, with the help of Justice's power to "perceive" Orly's nervous twitches, eventually exposed Kristoph as the real killer. In closing, Wright told the court that the legal system was entering dark times and that the law would have to be changed. After the trial, Wright revealed to Justice that the card evidence had been forged.

Justice was horrified at this and punched Wright, but he merely answered that there was no reason for him to care about what people thought of him anymore. Justice intended not to talk to Wright after that, but Wright had other plans for him. Two months later, Wright was running some errands when a car hit him.

After being admitted to the Hickfield Clinic with a sprained ankle, he called a very reluctant Apollo Justice, who was now out of a job with the closure of Gavin Law Offices , to help him out. Wright asked Justice to find the individual who had hit him, as well as figure out who had stolen Guy Eldoon 's noodle cart and Trucy's "magic panties". During Justice's investigation, he discovered a murder , which tied all three incidents together. It also turned out that Ema Skye had been hired as a police detective after failing her forensics exam, so Wright gave Justice a fingerprinting set to give to Skye to warm her up to him.

Wright then watched as Justice took on Klavier in court and won his case. Wright then began to put his plan into motion, using his influence over the judicial system to bring about the Jurist System. He visited Justice in his third courtroom battle, which involved a singer named Lamiroir , and told him that the old system would not allow him to get a not guilty verdict through conventional means.

Justice would eventually have the defendant admit to criminal activity to implicate the real killer. On October 6, Drew Misham was killed via atroquinine poisoning and Wright, as the chair of the Jurist System Simulated Court Committee, had the courts use this incident as the test case for the Jurist System, and was even able to pick the jurists himself.

Justice was appointed to the defense's bench, defending Drew's daughter Vera against Prosecutor Klavier Gavin. Wright gave Trucy Zak's will, but told her not to open it until the right time. As Justice conducted his investigation, Wright began the final stages of his own long investigation. Wright visited Kristoph's prison cell and attempted to get information out of him, only to see five black Psyche-Locks form around him. He then met Brushel and Valant, and told the latter about Zak's will.

Valant admitted that a terminally ill Magnifi had actually killed himself, which a jealous Valant had seen as an opportunity to frame Zak. Wright eventually returned to Kristoph's cell and tried to take an envelope that Drew had sent to Kristoph, which had on it the murder weapon: a poisoned stamp.

Kristoph caught him in the act, but Wright had already recorded his entire investigation with a hidden video camera. Wright compiled his recordings into a computer program called the MASON System , which he showed to the jury deliberating on Vera's trial. Although the recordings did not count as conclusive evidence under the old system, the jury unanimously decided that there was a sufficient reason to believe that someone else had committed the murder, and thus Vera received a not guilty verdict.

With Kristoph revealed as the mastermind behind the forged evidence that had caused Wright's disbarment, the former defense attorney's name was cleared and he began planning his return to law. Lamiroir, who was one of the jurists, visited Wright to thank him, having remembered that she was the long-lost Thalassa Gramarye. Wright told her that he would keep her children safe until she could reveal her identity to them. Sometime after Vera's trial, Wright went to Europe to look into their legal systems.

It was there that he met Athena Cykes , who was studying to become a lawyer. Learning she could sense subtle emotions from the voices of others, he assured her that this ability would be a great help to people. Cykes finished her studies and became a lawyer, and Wright invited her to join the Wright Anything Agency. It was there that Justice accepted the job of defending Mayor Damian Tenma for the murder of Alderman Rex Kyubi , and when Cykes eagerly rushed over to help with the investigation, Wright phoned Justice to head over to the village to find her.

Wright met with his two understudies before the trial the following day, telling them about his plan to retake the bar exam and warning them about the convict prosecutor Simon Blackquill , whose presence he himself was alerted to by now-Chief Prosecutor Miles Edgeworth. After the first trial day, Justice and Cykes continued their investigation, but soon began to struggle. When they returned to the agency, Wright told them what Mia had taught him: the worst of times are when lawyers have to force their biggest smiles, return to the basics whenever stuck, and always believe in their client.

His apprentices took his advice and successfully defended Tenma and exposed his aide, Florent L'Belle , as the real killer. After congratulating Justice and watching Tenma meet his fans as the Amazing Nine-Tails wrestler, Wright took his subordinates to Eldoon's Noodles to celebrate their victory. Wright later retook the bar exam and prepared to entered the legal world once more.

Wright's career took off with another unusual case when he was asked to defend Orla Shipley , an aquarium orca who was accused of killing the aquarium's owner. Although Wright managed to prove the orca's innocence, he then had to defend her trainer, Sasha Buckler , who was accused of the same crime.

Despite having to face Prosecutor Blackquill in court for the first time, Wright also ran into an old ally in the form of Pearl Fey during the investigation. By the end of the trial, Wright had managed to indict aquarist Marlon Rimes for the murder of Jack Shipley. However, when new evidence came up, Wright realized that the captain's death was an accident, and so Rimes was put into rehabilitation, as he had attempted to kill Orla.

Sometime after the trial, Wright, Trucy, Pearl, Cykes, and Justice returned to the aquarium to watch a new version of their famous stage show, with Rimes as one of the actors. Wright was later invited by Themis Legal Academy to give a potential seminar at the upcoming school festival, which he agreed to, bringing Justice and Cykes along with him.

A mock trial would be held to determine who gave and who received a seminar; Wright would speak to the defense attorney students if the defense attorney won, while Klavier Gavin would speak to the prosecutor students if the prosecutor of the mock trial won. Wright was also due to have a meeting with Professor Constance Courte , but she did not show up. He decided to allow Justice to watch the mock trial in his place, while he and Cykes waited in the hallway. However, while the mock trial was in full swing, the pair heard a crash outside.

Upon investigating the sound, the two of them discovered Courte's body on the outdoor stage intended to be used for the festival. Although Cykes's immediate reaction was to alert someone, Wright stopped her and stated that she should take the opportunity to examine the body in order to gather evidence.

After the authorities arrived at the crime scene, Justice realized that Courte's murder had many similarities to the fictional murder used in the mock trial. Later, as Wright was speaking to Professor Aristotle Means about the murder, it was revealed that Cykes intended to defend the prime suspect, Juniper Woods , as she was a childhood friend of hers. After Means left, Wright told Cykes about the so-called " dark age of the law " and that it had infected Themis Legal Academy.

After furiously fighting in the courtroom for her client, Cykes eventually revealed that Means was the true culprit, saving Woods. The entire Wright Anything Agency then attended the festival, which had been extended in honor of Courte. Since defense attorney student Hugh O'Conner had won the mock trial, Wright subsequently gave his seminar to the defense students.

Two months later Woods was accused of planting a bomb that destroyed one of the courtrooms in the District Court. Wright was forced to take over her defense from his subordinates after both were incapacitated; Justice was injured after protecting Woods during the bomb blast and Cykes suffered a mental breakdown during the trial owing to a traumatic previous experience in court when she was younger.

After exonerating Woods, Wright took up the defense of astronaut Solomon Starbuck , the defendant in the trial disrupted by the courtroom bombing, who had originally been Justice's client until the young lawyer was injured in the bombing, and stood accused of murdering fellow astronaut and close friend of Justice, Clay Terran.

Although Wright soon cleared Starbuck's name, he was shocked to find out that Cykes was now being indicted for the same murder as Starbuck. Wright found himself not only defending her, but also having to clear the names of both her and Blackquill in the UR-1 Incident , in which Athena Cykes's mother Metis Cykes had been murdered.

The resulting trial took place in the ruins of Courtroom No. During the trial, Wright was forced to cross-examine Justice, who had earlier taken a leave of absence from the Agency to investigate Terran's death on his own.

Wright eventually figured out that a third party had been responsible for fabricating the evidence that had been used to indict Athena. After clearing Blackquill of suspicion, Wright proceeded to question Fulbright, with the help of Justice and his bracelet, to discern the truth behind the murder weapon. Blackquill, who had claimed the prosecutor's bench from Edgeworth after being declared innocent of Metis's murder, sliced at Fulbright and struck his face; the impact left a tear, which revealed it as a mask.

The person on the witness stand was actually an international spy known only as the " phantom ", who had been posing as Fulbright for an unknown length of time. Wright indicted the phantom on charges of killing Athena's mother and Terran, as well as being responsible for the bombing of the Cosmos Space Center.

The crucial piece of evidence turned out to be a fragment of moon rock, which had blood residue from a wound the phantom suffered while escaping the scene of Metis's murder. Wright used Athena's earring , which had been made from the same moon rock, to prove that the two samples were from the same stone.

Thus, the fragment which contained the phantom's blood was from Metis's lab , and he was responsible for the murders of both Metis and Terran. After the phantom's incarceration and Athena's acquittal, Wright returned to running his agency.

Sometime later, he and his apprentices watched from the space center as Starbuck was launched into space in the HAT-3 rocket. Four months later, Wright traveled to the Kingdom of Khura'in to visit Maya, who was visiting the country as part of her spirit medium training.

However, trouble soon reared its head when his tour guide, Ahlbi Ur'gaid , was arrested for murdering a guard and stealing a precious relic called the Founder's Orb. Wright watched the ensuing trial and it was soon revealed that there were no defense attorneys in the country's court system owing to its Defense Culpability Act.

Instead, verdicts were decided via the spirit medium powers of Khura'in's mystic princess Rayfa Padma Khura'in , which allowed for the viewing of the victim's final moments.

Faced with seemingly overwhelming evidence, Ur'gaid was declared guilty. However, Wright then appeared at the empty defense's bench and declared that a verdict without a defense was unacceptable, and so he would take on Ur'gaid's case.

Despite the overwhelming odds and intense hostility from the courtroom gallery with even Ur'gaid initially protesting his interference , Wright proved that Ur'gaid was innocent and that the head monk, Pees'lubn Andistan'dhin , had committed the murder and stolen the Founder's Orb. After Ur'gaid's case, Wright heard that Trucy had been accused of murder back home in America, and called Justice in a panic.

From the phone call, he learned that the Wright Anything Agency office was in danger of financial ruin thanks to the schemes of Take-2 TV producer, Roger Retinz.

When Justice stated that he and Cykes were on the case, Wright told his subordinate that he had grown a lot and that he was confident enough to put his trust in him to save both his daughter and the agency. After Justice won the case, Wright congratulated him and acknowledged him as a full-fledged lawyer in his own right. A few weeks after Trucy's trial, Wright learned that Maya had once again been accused of murder, with head priest Tahrust Inmee as the victim.

He immediately took on the case to save her, going up against international prosecutor Nahyuta Sahdmadhi in the process. Wright conducted his investigation under the watchful eye of Rayfa, with Detective Ema Skye providing assistance where she could.

However, despite his best efforts, the odds were too heavily weighed against then, and Wright lost the trial, with the pair being declared guilty under the Defense Culpability Act. Luckily, they were given another chance to prove their innocence when Inmee's acolyte Puhray Zeh'lot was also found dead; as Maya was also accused of this murder, the trial was extended.

Wright once again found himself under the watchful eye of Rayfa for most of his investigation, which eventually led to the discovery of a secret rebel hideout within the Inner Sanctum.

The following day, Wright had Maya channel Inmee's spirit in order to get his testimony about the deaths of Zeh'lot and himself. Wright was subsequently able to figure out that Zeh'lot was actually Rheel Neh'mu, a government spy who hunted rebels while disguised as Lady Kee'ra. More importantly, Wright was able to deduce that the priest had committed suicide to protect his wife, Beh'leeb Inmee , from the Defense Culpability Act and prevent the police from discovering the base.

After his and Maya's acquittal, Wright caught a glimpse of the rebel leader, Dhurke Sahdmadhi , who was helping Beh'leeb escape with the help of Datz Are'bal. A few days later, Maya was kidnapped by Inga, thereby forcing Wright to obey the commands of politician Paul Atishon or else risk Maya's safety once again. This "agreement" coerced him into disagreeing on the identity of an artifact known as the Founder's Orb that Justice had found during a trip to Kurain Village, prompting the two to have a civil trial against one another.

Although they were on opposite sides of the courtroom, Wright was still hesitant to face off against Justice. However, Justice figured out that Maya was needed to channel the Khura'inese religious figure known as the Holy Mother , whose face was revealed in the orb.

This meant that Atishon was holding the wrong person captive, as harming her would render the orb useless to him. Freed from the shackles of blackmail, Wright resigned as Atishon's lawyer, and the politician was arrested for the murder of Archie Buff , who had hidden the artifact from Atishon after discovering it had been stolen.

After the trial, Wright received a call from Inga, who demanded the orb in exchange for Maya. However, while they found Maya weakened but safe, Inga was dead, and Dhurke was immediately arrested for his murder. After reuniting with Justice, Wright stood alongside his apprentice as his co-counsel during Dhurke's trial. Together, they faced off against both Ga'ran and Nahyuta. Several revelations were made during the trial, including the fact that Dhurke was killed by Inga while he was rescuing Maya many days earlier.

Wright learned that Maya had been safe all along as she was channeling Dhurke's spirit so he could meet with Justice back in the States. Wright then watched as his apprentice solved the case and accused Ga'ran of having no right to the throne, attempting to assassinate her older sister , and murdering Inga.
