Episode 93: (Not) Lovely Ladies

Spoiler

The second segment of Case 5 is really long, so don't be surprised if it doesn't end before January does.

Commentator's Note: During this trial portions, the commentary will take a Raymond approach. Also, props to Capcom for reusing that awesome track from AAI here.

No worries, Courtney-pie.

I hope Miles did well in proving the culprit of Crane's death.

I figure I might as well help what I can. The warden WAS blackmailed by Dogen, so who knows.

Although I can't say I'm not worried for that prosecutor. The boy wasn't all that bright.

Although I can't say I like the circumstances, per se.

The warden is not dumb. She knows exactly why she's here. So then, what is it?

...No way. That can't be!

The boy's evidence was transferred to Franny-pie. Where did the knife go?

Even during her desperation, the warden showed some kindess. Why is she so smug right now?

Miles clearly demonstrated the warden is guilty. I can't let them pass a full Not Guilty verdict here. But what can I do?

If only Franny-pie could demonstrate the warden's guilt.

The warden clearly is different today. Something about her emanates an image of evil.

Courtney-pie, you know the problem. Everyone here knows it. You just won't act on it.

Those are not feelings. They are certainties of Miles's logic.

I must help Franny-pie to get the warden proven guilty. It's my duty as a person of the law.

I doubt even Franny-pie could find it in just a few minutes, but we need every opportunity we can get.

That was frighteningly close!

Commentator's Note: The Raymond approach is only for Patricia Roland's trial. The rest is back to regular.

It wasn't a case I particularly had a good experience on.

But I can't let my hard work end on a Not Guilty verdict.

I guess the trial was kind of a show; not that it was particularly fun.

Not that it would have been good for you to see how it went.

Only one person would come out of the doors with those words.

Do that if you wish, I guess.

The prosecutor now in charge should know some things.

You know, if I actually became a defense attorney, you might just beat me....Just kidding, you wouldn't.

Small talk similes do not knives get.

I know that much.

Surely Raymond has something to say too.

I know what you're suggesting.

I know it too well.

Attorney's badges aren't things people just get.

Yeah sure whatever.

Contrary to what some people might believe, I'm not superhuman.

Still onto that simile.

Franziska mocking me is a thing you get used to.

Oh, that person. It's always that person.

He's a much better shot than just randomly searching everywhere.

They left us here.

Are we back to the routine of "doubted capability" and mocking me?

Certainly, the trial went very strangely.

Clearly the situation shows more than heartlessness from her.

Episode 94: John?

Spoiler

I don't believe you killed him, but we must know what happened.

Just casual talk with the president? I doubt that.

I finally get a chance to logic chess with her.

Too simple.

It's gonna be a long talk. Courtney hides stuff pretty well.

I can't make a direct question.

How strange.

I don't particularly like you, Courtney, but you must know that humanity is good.

What of it?

This could all be quite crucial, as a matter of fact.

Let's keep going.

Agreeing with my logic is not a feeling, but whatever you say.

Sebastian's whereabouts are important, but for now I require to know about this other person.

We all are human.

Courtney is clearly desperate.

If Courtney could just tell us directly, it'd be so much better for everyone. But we must figure out this way, unfortunately.

Okay then.

That child.

So it's a child.

Many would be surprised, but not as much as you were.

Go on.

I guess implausible hopes don't happen often. Go figure.

This is as much as I need to go for a direct approach.

That child seemed quite important to you.

Why actually, I think he might.

To think that Courtney would be this desperate...

Ah yes, I know him actually.

It almost would appear that it is all complete. But I really need this last one piece.

That was a kind of doubted affirmation.

Although I do slightly wonder how she came to know, it's not important.

Unless you were more than just a fan.

At any rate, there must be some other clues.

We're roughly the same age and you have already praised my intelligence or something. Are you back to that game again?

A quick one to change the topic.

Come on, they had to have a security lady(ugh, that security lady...) to hold back the fans at Global Studios.

This should be enough.

You see...

Courtney must feel really horrible right now. But if she refuses to say everything, then I'll have to take it out this way.

I think I know what the implications of said person are.

If you won't tell the truth, I will find it myself.

Okay then, but...

So that's who John reminded me of. He's really like you.

This tells all.

Episode 95: A Kidnapping Search...Again...Again

Spoiler

Kay has a point.

Okay.

Someone who would want the French lady to be declared innocent...

It was certainly quite strange.

Courtney...

I guess Courtney isn't primarily a judge in the end.

That's right. The recess is only for 15 minutes...

Rest in peace, prosecutor Faraday.

Prosecutor Faraday was certainly a fine man.

Well, getting John back would just be the right thing to do. I'm in too.

Thank you for your consideration, Courtney.

Whatever helps.

I hope Franziska, Ray, and Courtney can stall enough for us to find John.

Glad you're fully back.

Where to start?

Maybe that place would be a good starting point.

Wat.

I'm my assistant's assistant now.

No.

She'll probably just say it all herself now.

I knew it.

Who to talk to first?

This person seems a good start.

I could've gotten you convicted, but surely it is no big deal, right?

I'll see about that.

You see...

Somehow, Kay being a prosecutor would be a scary thing.

Huh?

Although I guess they need the place for what they have to finish now.

Nobody expects Lotta.

Well then.

Sounds better than some reboot sequels I know.

Do kids really get scared by this man?

While my current boss is being distracted, could you answer me something?

I'm not sure he did it fully himself.

This time at least.

Oh. Then...

We'll be just fine.

Not because the president died in the filming lot?

If that's the case, what stops you from filming?

That's all that we can get from that side for now.

Let's see...

Who knows, this truck might have some involvement somehow.

Now then, who else might have seen something?

Oh. Then tell us...

Presumably to hide themselves.

The kidnappers must have been sneaky.

Episode 96: Debeste?

Spoiler

I don't think I've done anything, but whatever.

Maybe there's something I should check again.

Ooh, do we get to analyze a tape again?

Let's do it then.

Huh?

I suppose it is simple enough.

Considering he was on the studio today, I guess that's what ended up happening.

I guess it will be a clue for the president's death.

We heavily lack clues though.

Why?

Why does it have to be these two?

I don't want to...

Come on.

One could suppose that she's one of the few people who would.

Oh.

Although maybe Lotta knows something.

Go figure.

Few I would imagine.

Don't act like one?

I think I've had enough Lotta for many days.

Sure, it was Knightley who killed Rooke...

...but you were still involved.

I can imagine.

Kay has a point.

A mix of both, I'd say.

Wait wat.

This makes little sense.

Really, why?

This. Is. A. Kidnapping.

Wait.

I believe I understand now.

In conclusion.

Although I believe this one can be explained too.

He could certainly fit.

It's so simple.

Well then, let's go.

It's a kind of long tale.

They should give this man a medal.

I'm fine as long as I don't have to walk in a straight line.

Blaise!

She promptly entered.

Whatever you say.

Whatever you say.

It's obvious they'd be in a garage.

Dirt in mechanic's gloves...

So anyway.

And where John was.

Okay...
To be continued...

Edit: Just to be clear, this episode was a little annoying to make. The gameplay was fine, but I apparently messed up in posting the images so badly that I had to carefully doctor the post again and basically fix the near entirety of it(because I had some images that I thought I put but actually were just the previous image multiple times).

 

[LN1]

Re: LN1 plays the Gyakuten Kenji 2 Fan Translation(Lots of images! Case 5 Hype!)

Episode 97: Last Check

Spoiler

The image of a Judge Faraday is also scary.

That wasn't Kay swinging it anyway.

We can finally get the trial back on track...

Look, I wanted to find you, but not like this!

Well, we found Sebastian.

For what little the phrase means anyway.

Three "that"s in one day.

But for Sebastian's sake, I must.

I don't want to do this but I'd also feel bad not doing this.

To think that I would end up using Logic Chess like this.

Well, I did ask nicely.

Blaise really left him in a very conflicted state.

If you're willing to be helped, I will help you.

Some days ago I might have just answered you yes. But it's not applicable now.

He's calm, so now I can question.

He does raise a point.

I still don't get why, but it seems the likely possibility at the moment.

I think I have a good idea of what to ask next.

I think I might just know.

Even knowing Blaise, I highly doubt that.

He wouldn't get himself incriminated just like that.

Time to end this.

Just from the events of today I can think of a few reasons. But mainly...

Thier question?

Rather, they mistook you.

Yes, hopefully not, likely.

Ack!

I must figure out a way to calm him and ask him at the same time.

As I figured.

I can't say anything to that.

Whatever you reason you chose to be a prosecutor can't be as insignificant as you say.

That statement tells all.

I believe you have a reason to do such a thing.

Keep trying Sebastian.

Keep trying to learn vocabulary and find the right way.

Nobody could have said it better.

I could get Blaise to the light. Now it's Sebastian's turn.

Conjunctions join sentences. This one is hung up alone.

Maybe so, but I can't have him think that.

Plausible.

That's the answer I was looking for.

Okay.

Yes, now I'm sure.

I think I know.

Yes, I know enough.

But it's not over.

And in the end, I lead this guy to properly living his life. To think we were against each other some days ago.

Episode 98: Grandly Low Progress

Spoiler

Some days ago I would have just plainly said no.

Ah, young prosecutors.

Sebastian...

You might meet him someday, even though he's only gone against 5 different prosecutors in like 15 cases.

Yes, I can see that.

It's all clear now.

Maybe you aren't apt now to wear that jacket, but it only takes action on your part.

That's the way, Sebastian.

This is the last push Sebastian needs to know his life.

You can surely figure it out.

Was that too loud? Sorry, force of habit.

I won....I think.

At any rate, we have all we can get from here now. Let's return to the Grand Tower.

I hope Franziska and Ray are doing fine in their stalling.

Even though we didn't actually get evidence regarding the case, we might have a better excuse for their stalling.

This stalling for time thing is painful in so many ways.

And to experience two of them so intensely and simultaneously.

It really hurts.

I hope this pretext gives me a better excuse than what I have now.

Well done Miles, but...

Although he did always appear to be a particularly suspicious man. Hmm...

Pinning the blame on Kay just isn't right. Who knows what else he did.

I might just die if the warden gets a full acquittal. I'm still traumatized by that first meeting.

There's the gloves...and....the gloves...

The IS-7 Incident again...

Seriously, the relatedness is vague.

What.

That was strange.

Possible enough.

Yeah, I can see why he looked in there.

It's best we examine the stuff here.

The worst past is that somehow I miss dealing with Knightley.

It didn't end up being.

Something buried that must be retrieved...

Although that might not be a tough question.

I wonder why they would be.

Do tell.

The contents of this spoiler box are gory.

Spoiler

The ring..

The rest of this episode is safe.

Spoiler

Could it be so easy?

The circumstances to his death are quite strange.

Perhaps it will all end today, for real.

At this point, it's kind of mutual.

Get to the point, Shelly.

That I cannot say that in good conscience?

Episode 99: Pink is a Manly Color

Spoiler

Well, he IS dead, I guess.

He died robustly, I guess.

I don't even know where to start.

His client is the mastermind and the kidnapper?

The worst part is that you're one of the most value-holding people I know.

Messing with Shelly is never a good idea.

Although I wonder why Dogen would want the president dead? His actions in the prison case don't fit that.

Back to the plaza, I guess.

Predictable.

And said person knows me.

The kidnapper...the mastermind...the killer...

A person who appreciates my actions.

Damn it.

This person also knows my suspicions of Blaise...

And even of my private conversation with Courtney...

The kidnapper who knows about the things I've done that nobody should know...

This mastermind clearly is quite crafty.

It's clear that this mastermind has somehow being spying on us.

Still, this person's our best lead for finding John.

This person is clearly messed up.

It just doesn't add up.

Then let's think carefully.

The conversation with Courtney.

There's only one conceivable way.

Can hear, can't see.

Re-re-thinking time.

Only one thing...

Geez.

It was the only thing I had in the detention center.

It wasn't that hard, really.

Really, it was the only evidence from the incident besides the letters that I have now also.

They know we know.

She hit something.

The less people the mastermind knows know, the better.

Anyway, we have some business with you, Nicole.

I swear...

I guess we at least found Sebastian.

Why actually...

Yes...

Begin Investigation, then.

You see...

Baiting actually worked...

Episode 100: Triple Digits

Spoiler

I'm getting real tired of this.

Fine...

Although I wouldn't quite bet on it.

God damn it.

Let's see what we get.

Which is illegal, but this woman is my best source of information right now.

I still wouldn't quite bet on it.

Oh I see.

Oh. Then...

I don't think there's much more Nicole can say for now.

Great, now we'll eventually have to explain.

Don't count your chicks before they hatch, buddy.

I finally find him...

It really must have been shocking.

Gumshoe, you know the truth about that.

Then...

That's when I was detained...

So it wasn't near pointless!

He's proven his point...

I'm just some man named Miles Edgeworth.

If not for me, then for Kay.

A lot of stuff, but first we should talk.

So that's what it was...

Could it be?

Good work.

Nothing came of it, but she definitely went there.

Do tell...

Duty is duty.

Right.

And it's a really important search.

Okay then.

So he saw John before he was kidnapped. Presumably after he ran from the studio.

But not the kidnapping itself. Then let's investigate.

Let's begin.

What else is there here?

Before 11...

That's convenient enough.

Very far and very few and clearly in between.

Testimony+evidence=Logic half.

It would be too tedious. For now, we must learn of the kidnapping.

That wasn't useful for us though.

Where does this lead us to?

I have a pretty good idea why.

And it's simple logic following from here.

[LN1]

Re: LN1 plays the Gyakuten Kenji 2 Fan Translation(Lots of images! Case 5 Hype!)

Episode 101: Blaise It

Spoiler

Or at least the kidnapper did go to the dump.

So John was transported to the dump.

Although he probably didn't remain there.

I don't quite think I have enough information yet. But Regina and Simon are there. Maybe they know something.

Bummer?

Obviously you did.

I'll see if I have time for that.

I mean really, an elephant out there in the streets.

Nothing substantial came out of talking to Regina.

Who'd've thunk it, really?

That place, huh?

You know, I would have said some days ago that I find that quite plausible.

So then, let's focus.

Ok, and...

Nobody would.

So that's all they have to say, then.

That's good enough.

It's really quite simple.

But I have an idea.

That is to say, it's not quite as precise as that.

Should I really?

Something about Gumshoe is kind of inspiring.

Really, thanks.

I hope it will be enough for Sebastian to find the evidence and John to be returned.

This will be rough. But I cannot have the French lady declared Not Guilty.

Commentator's Note: For this trial part, the commentary won't take a Raymond approach.

Not even being detained is enough to stop this man.

This is getting insulting.

Who's to decide that?

Evidence is everything, right?

Everyone here knows how ruthless this man is, and to what extent one must go to stop him.

This man is clearly trying to manipulate everything to his favor. Then I must find a counter for every method he has.

And I really hope she can find it soon.

I'll never be able to thank Ray enough for what he's doing now.

And in that matter of time, I can present what I want to say.

My pleasure.

Now then, about said interrogation.

Courtney clearly is at a loss at what to say, because of multiple reasons.

Hear me out on this.

So now, we have many things to ask.

And I could do it again, but unfortunately I don't have all the evidence of that case now.

This man will not stop in his evil motives no matter how much he falls! Truly despicable.

Episode 102: Tides Turned for Debeste

Spoiler

Oh, you'll see why I like Sebastian.

If only John were free right now.

Blaise doesn't know that he didn't kidnap John, but I can't just reveal that. It would be quite dangerous.

This man certainly was one of the monsters in the IS-7 Incident. It just shows.

That voice.

Sebastian!

Wait, Franziska, don't whip him!

Yes, Sebastian has certainly changed(his new theme is amazing. just go hear it).

Blaise is trying to get Sebastian to not present the evidence!

I can't let this happen. Not with how Sebastian is now.

Evidence is everything, no?

He's clearly quite desperate.

Yes. Now we can start having a much fairer trial.

And I'm glad this all will go for the better.

This is a very nice turn.

Heh.

My pleasure.

Sebastian. Please, hold on and survive those feelings. For the sake of everyone here.

It's time for a new Sebastian, now.

Oh, this is quite good.

Wait. Could he mean?

One of Dogen's bells...

Did we get so far and not make it?

So that means...

He was trying his hardest and we didn't know it.

So this paper is the best you could find...

Even with John being free, Courtney can't just easily declare the French lady guilty. This is not looking good.

How much longer until this man is not allowed to walk free?

We've gone so far. We must not back down now.

After all, you brought the paper for a reason.

Blaise could have easily worn gloves. This is quite a predicament.

The paper had the bell. Surely we must be able to find something else.

But sadly, I can't think of any excuse right now. I don't want it to end, but it might just end.

Sebastian is really starting to get a hold on his own.

The bell is a likely dead end. So the newspaper it is.

It's like you don't want us to examine the newspaper.

Ok, this looks like it will really be helpful.

Can you really still call those fingerprints?

I know for sure that it's not beyond Blaise to do such a thing.

That is not a way to live life well.

I hope Sebastian doesn't mentally break again. I still think something might be found.

And Sebastian believes it too.

Episode 103: Warden You Off

Spoiler

Just in case you still don't get why I like Sebastian so much...

Oh, Sebastian's got this.

You can do this...

You can't let your father walk freely.

Especially now.

It's just my duty as both a former prosecutor and as Miles Edgeworth.

Commentator's Note: If I had to complain about one thing, it's that Sebastian gets no voiced "Take That!" or close-up sprite. I mean, come on.

Don't even bother, Blaise.

There's no way you're getting out of this.

You know what will come up, Blaise.

I know exactly who you are. That's why I keep going against you.

Sebastian, go.

Go, and fight against your father.

...

You've grown.

Grown to be better than your father.

Commentator's Note: This has to be one of the best lines in any visual novel ever.

Commentator's Note: The best thing about Blaise is that he breaks down TWICE.

Well, at least the bell was found.

The French Lady is certainly emanating more evil than when we exposed her for murdering Knightley.

I will have to look into this connection later.

Very well.

God damnit Lang.

The French Lady certainly shows unusual behavior today.

12 years ago...

It would all make sense.

Oh yeah, I forgot to tell you about Lang, Courtney. Sorry.

Ok, come on.

So many questions...

The death of the president is certainly a case that concerns me.

And I have some very personal stakes to it. This is far from over.

Episode 104: Where'd the President Go?

Spoiler

I hope nothing stupid is happening in the studio.

It would be very good to investigate the case in peace, after all.

You think I'd just leave the president's case like it was nothing.

...What the hell was up with Lang Zi's mind? Hasn't he been dead for like 10,000 years or so?

Do tell.

That much I know.

Of the president, no less.

Wait, hold on.

Of course.

Oh yeah, John was here. He had to have seen something.

I can hear it coming.

John's in quite the trouble.

Commentator's Note: There's a black screen transition implying that Courtney was scolding John for who-knows. I'm not even kidding.

Honestly, I'm not sure which is scarier.

Lang really cares about Zheng Fa, that much I know.

So, what can this kid say?

No, there definitely was something out of the ordinary.

No seriously, Courtney is somehow scarier the more I learn about her.

But still...

And after all...

Okay, this is easy.

Thanks for recording, by the way.

Keep in mind that they aren't props or anything.

Lang is right.

Actually, yes.

It can't be that simple, right?

They did appear to be parts of the set.

Not even close.

Come on.

I don't even know where I'd get it.

Can I get the information out of him somehow?

Huh?

Something about it...

So you mean to tell me....

Come to think of it.

Of course.

This again.

Not two nights ago, at least.

I'm all ears.

It makes sense, but I don't think that was what happened.

Episode 105: Why Are You Even Still Here?

Spoiler

I believe in what Courtney says, but I have to actually refute Lang's argument.

Lang presents a reasonable point.

Even with her son and herself being suspected, she cannot say?

Come on Lang, do you really have to ask?

Bring it on.

Many traces would be left.

Seems I can't refute that.

Quite a rash conclusion that you are presenting.

No, don't worry.

Lang must have caught up too.

No.

Something about that.

Okay, now I'm sure.

Listen very carefully.

It's clean when it shouldn't be. I wonder why?

Someone that was alive...

Now that you say that.

Why I might even have evidence.

The increased utility of these gloves as evidence. Blaise, what do you have to do?

Yes.

I think I have a solid idea right now.

In that we've interpreted them the wrong way.

Commentator's Note: The correct option is actually the other one, but in this choice the game just makes a brief transition to the correct choice after you get penalized for choosing the wrong one. So...

As for what, that might be a thing we'll solve later.

Blaise is quite smart, so he knows it'd be better to just not be seen.

Why actually, there is proof.

Somehow, everything I do influences things in more way than I imagined.

So, Blaise's bag.

That sounds like a very good idea.

I'm beginning to doubt the concept of "common sense".

But seriously, why are these two here?

I legitimately want to know.

I need a pill.

Absurd. But maybe...

You already do that yourself.

Especially since John was alone besides Blaise and Nichols.

I actually think there might be.

There.

Or actually, maybe only in the case of this photo.

This is almost too easy.

See, that is the rational explanation.

Thank goodness it's over now.

Don't concern yourself too much, Kay.

So, an official autopsy report?

So he was pressed on, not against.

Since the president has no hand injuries or signs of struggle, then...

But for now, I must keep going on with my argument with Lang.

Well okay then.

It's such a refresher to be right.

I won't like saying this, but...

He's right.

I only proved Blaise was here.

So then, what might John know?

Lang makes a pretty good point though.

So be it then.

I only will need one still image to do this.

The president! Alive!

No way around it.

The president. Alive. Here. Last night. Could it simply mean John is the culprit?

But Lang is right. It's all very decisive.

Lang's right.

Yes?

Oh boy.

It's all too clear where this leads into.

This testimony. So John is confessing?

I hate to say it, but it seems that way.

Keeping the fire burning would be the stupidest thing John could do, culprit or not.

At least it wasn't as complex as a Rube Goldberg machine.

Lang keeps making good points.

Here we go.

Big machines. Can be quite harmful.

Huh?

Well, that was pointless.

It's a huge heater.

You're the one who does that?

You just can never predict Kay.

Still, was it necessary to run away?

Nothing too helpful from the call...

He wanted to stay in the studio. Doesn't matter much, but it's there.

Courtney's right, at any rate.

Maybe the moment the head fellholds a clue.

Of course he was.

Seriously, headphones?

So, what's left is when he found his "victim".

Vague.

For all you know, he might not have been there.

Already dead, you say?

Where did you gain the knowledge?

Maybe something about what he found.

Is that so?

Because I don't think so.

So yes, I have a problem.

Oh, so that's what it is.

Okay...

Wait what.

This again.

So you're telling me only the pollen stuck? If you say so...

That's so simple and makes so much sense.

John merely threw away the flowers...

Reminder that these two look more alike the more events happen.

So then...

It was an act of protection.

So that's how it is.

That seems about right.

The removal of evidence was before the confession. But still...

I guess I'm going to have to say this if I want the fullest resolution possible.

He must have been quite distressed.

Lucky timing?

Well, that might do.

Curses, he's right again.

Don't fail me now, guesswork.

For now, yes.

Just for being here last night, he's a suspect.

And also...

This date must be quite important.

It's getting to that point.

Why actually, I may just have it.

Yes.

Who knows what it might mean for us?

It's all too unlikely to be a coincidence.

There is much more in play than you might think.

Episode 108: It All Ends In A Blaise

Spoiler

Lang's former subordinates.

They are really attached to Lang, even if Lang acts as if they aren't.

Do you need more convincing?

Let's get going, then.

Very good.

Well, we must keep going however we can.

That's when it happened.

How many powers of 10 is that again?

I wonder what's the gap.

It certainly would feel like the president was quite an admirable man.

The French Lady 12 years ago.

I don't doubt her being guilty, somehow.

I believe that.

You think?

What can I do to have both cases not end here? Is it all useless?

Them?

If Lang couldn't get them, then how could you?

I'll take that as a half-truth.

Blaise keeps appearing as an involved person.

Sebastian was saved by me and himself, and now I am saved by him and myself.

It would be my pleasure.

Courtney knew how Sebastian really was. She also acknowledges how he is now. Truly...

It's high time that SS-5 gets really investigated.

The Grand Tower...

Lang's father must have been quite a thorough investigator.

That's some awkward luck.

That's a gap of 11 years.

Sounded like a nice place.

That sounds familiar.

What exactly happened with those three?

This is gonna be quite a day.

If the President was at the embassy until midnight and the police arrived at 7, then that's a reasonable gap.

Then that would mean...

It's gonna be a long ride.

The rest of the episode contains gore. Due to being an investigation, a recap is provided at the end.

Spoiler: Rest of the episode

He couldn't have done much.

Let's start examining the scene, then.

I suppose that was the person he was more willing to talk to at the moment.

It had to have said something important.

So that's what it was, huh?

Jill Crane. Defense attorney. Victim. Apparently some other stuff too.

A suspicion of Blaise, it would appear.

We might still have more to learn about Jill, but we'll get to that.
To be continued...

Spoiler: Recap

Jack Cameron appears to have been hit in the back of the head by a brick, and died. It appears he was using his cell phone when he died. Said call was being done to his girlfriend while he was witnessing the president's kidnapping. However, his girlfriend wasn't there, so the call went into the answering machine. Jack's girlfriend is none other than Jill Crane. It would appear that Jack's death was what motivated Jill for revenge against Blaise, although a few things are unclear. At any rate, Jack's testimony is evidence.

Episode 109: A Connected Lightbulb That Doesn't Shine
The entire episode is marked for gore. A recap is provided at the end.

Spoiler

Well, it was quite a nice garden.

That's enough flowers for now.

Nothing too much else on the murder weapon, presumably.

I suppose the murderer had no problems with leaving such a large pool of blood.

He could likely do nothing about it.

Wherever was this button originally?

Let's see what was seen.

Nice conclusion.

Although I can't quite tell yet.

I suppose that's all that the body can tell.

Nine flowerbeds...

It's quite mysterious in nature.

12 years ago though.

You were never very good at excuses.

12 years changed little, it seems.

It's all too clear that a connection to the present case exists.

Well, it wouldn't be hard to imagine why.

That, we'll see.

A silly conclusion.

Well, it's just a snowman in the end.

So that's the nature of the first trail.

Not just from them, at least.

Many things are, what in particular?

So, what does Lang know?

Ouch.

Persistence from both sides, huh.

We are investigating the past, so keep going.

I don't doubt he was a good investigator, but still.

Okay. You were right Lang, so I'll just go.

As if.

This is somehow helping less than Lang's speech did.

Whatever made me think Ray would help now.

There's not much else that can burn.

What are the chances some kid's prank would happen just this day?

I believe there might be something peculiar.

That would seem like a simple conclusion.

Besides him being Blaise.

I can imagine.

These SS-5 files would seem to back that up.

It would seem to match up.

So then, it's my task to fill the gap again.

It matches up, but something about the situation...
To be continued...

Spoiler: Recap

A peculiar yellow flower is found in a flowerbed near Jack's body. That will be seen in more detail later. Jack Cameron was murdered with a brick, and it seems there were a bunch in the facility. He was struck in the back and left a large pool of blood. Something that stood out in the picture of his corpse is that he was holding something on his right hand. That was a button, and it appears that said button had Jack's blood. Jack had a camera and took a single picture, which appears to be the moment the president was kidnapped. He was kidnapped at gunpoint. If Lang's father is correct, the person holding the president at gunpoint is Patricia Roland.

The flowerbeds in the garden are arranged interestingly. Three for every garden, and three gardens. The yellow flower that was in the flowerbed near the victim was a Lion Lily. Back to the flowerbeds, the arrangement of the left flowerbeds matches the monster footprints of the present case. Blaise dug what was "left to rest in the flowerbed 12 years ago", but the specific flowerbed was never said, so that's why he dug all three holes. So then, what did Blaise dig up?

The footprints leading to the body appear to be the victim's. Size 11 and they fit the victim. The footprints coming from the body are not know, but they are Size 7.

Near the entrance, there was a fire, as seen by a pillar being burnt. The fire was in the SS-5 files, and appears to have been the prank of a child that cleared the snow.

With enough information, the next step is to recreate when the president was kidnapped. Beginning the recreation, Lang shares us information about the trial.
His father used Jack's eyewitness testimony to try and prove Patricia Roland's connection to the case. However, Blaise always argued that since the kidnapping was outside the orphanage, no connection existed. It would appear that Blaise had a connection with Roland. As supposed by Lang, Blaise was one of the kidnappers. Still, Lang's father suspected Patricia Roland for a reason besides Jack's testimony. That reason, we must find.

Episode 110: The Eye Who Sees It All
The entire episode is marked for gore. A recap is provided at the end.

Spoiler

So that's not abnormal.

The iceman.

Which is a little strange.

Why actually...

Yeah, that's what it is.

I can't believe it was right in front of us.

What does this lead us to?

That's also how the blood appeared.

Not unless he somehow stretched an arm or something.

Ok, let's try to look at it carefully again.

Something might just not be right.

Did he teleport or something?

Time to re-examine the body, it seems.

So, shoes.

I guess they're not THE shoes.

The big shoes are not a perfect fit, but I can't say that his feet are small either.

It just doesn't fit if he didn't die there.

Something about the later snowman.

Maybe it was taken out.

It might not have been quite as cold then.

I mean seriously, some things can be very confusing.

Smaller than the ones leading to the body.

Besides the fact that many people have that foot size.

Well, that was simple.

That strongly backs up Jack dying here.

We're sure to find something.

In such a strange arrangement.

My reasoning about the snowman has been sound so far. However...

Don't you find it just a tad bit strange the killer left the camera and phone intact?

Do tell...

It all points out to the photo being faked, it appears.

It certainly seems like a strange thing to do, but you never know.

About one place fits where Jack died and what he said to Jill.

And also...

I want to see the new scene carefully.

So it's clear that the killer and the kidnappers had some connection, and one of them was the french lady.

Commentator's Note: This is actually the only time you have to change the re-creation manually. The prison courtyard investigation should have enough automatic changes to never have to do it manual.

So, let's see it all again.

Yes, Jack's death near the snowman matches the facts.

And you know how Blaise goes.

Yes, you're getting it.

It can be frustrating.

That can mean only one thing.

So, that's what it was about that piece of evidence.

Or else there'd be blood in the burnt ground.

The blood here was fresh, and even if it wasn't, there still was none in the burnt ground.

Okay then, how would we do that?
To be continued...

Spoiler: Recap

So, the snowman in Jack's death was already quite melted. However, in the photo it was still not melted yet. Still, the snowman in the photo was still missing its right eye button. While it may seem that the button was merely taken away earlier by some kid, it seems more likely that Jack accidentally took it off. The button that Jack was holding onto matches the left eye button of the snowman, and has his blood. It would seem that Jack was holding onto the snowman's eye button when he collapsed as he was dying, but the snowman couldn't hold him and he fell with the button. However, if that is the case, Jack had to be much closer to the snowman. The footprints suggest that he really was near the flowerbeds, though.

However, what if the footprints were lying? Returning to the scene of Jack's body, the shoes are analyzed. They don't quite seem to fit, so it would appear the shoes are not Jack's. So if the shoes are not Jack's, then neither are the footprints. But still, the second trail of footprings doesn't quite fit Jack's feet either, which suggests that his body was dragged to where it was found.

Analyzing the snowman in the scene where Jack was found reveals an interesting detail. Exactly one brick was missing outside. Now, if you think about it, said brick matches up with the brick that was used to kill Jack. So, if that's the case, then it all is quite clear. Jack was standing near the snowman and his body was dragged to where it was found.

But if that's the case, it seems impossible for Jack to have taken the photo he took of the kidnapping since he was right where it took place. No, perhaps, the photo was fabricated. After all, Jack's photo is not his only evidence of the kidnapping. Rather, perhaps the real kidnapping took place near the burnt light pillar. After all, Jack said the light went off and couldn't see a thing. While that would suggest the photo that was taken, him dying near the snowman suggests that other place. So, if the kidnapping was near the orphanage, then it's clear that the photo was faked so that no connection to the orphanage was found. Still, some things are yet unclear, so back to when Jack's body was found.

As he couldn't have possibly died there, the body is removed from the recreation. However, there's still the blood that was near the place it was found. It was such a large amount that suggested a murder took place. Since Jack didn't die there, it would be someone else's blood. All that happened was that Blaise changed the results of the blood analysis to say that it's Jack's blood. It'd be easier than removing the blood, as the forensic team could have found even trace amounts with luminol. Still, Jack's clothes were coated in blood. All it suggests is that he was dropped off in fresh blood. Still, one thing doesn't quite fit. If the fire the kid did as a prank happened before the murder that took place in front of the main hall, then why is there blood erased? If it had happened afterwards, then there would be blood on the burnt ground, but it only is on the snow. So then, why didn't that kid come as a witness? That, will have to be investigated.

Episode 111: You Are The Father
This part of the episode is marked for gore. A recap is provided at the middle.

Spoiler

Props to Lang and his subordinates.

Why would that be?

That's where the fire gets us, then.

Blaise can be quite cunning.

As for who, that's a wonder.

That's a nice possibility.

So then.

That's it. That's the full extent of the SS-5 investigation.

Spoiler: Recap

Well, Lang will get us every report about the fire. Not just that, but he'll also get some evidence about the scene that his father got. Says that it looked like a child's drawing.

So, Cameron's body. The footprints could only be from the moving of the body and the going to the gate.

If Blaise was one of the kidnappers, then perhaps what he dug up was related to the kidnapping. For the moment, that perhaps would seem to be the ransom money.

Investigation Complete

The rest of the episode is safe.

Spoiler

Let's take a look.

This drawing could be really important.

It was the child's testimony as evidence, so to say.

I just know that today is not over yet, so I'll go with it quickly.

Would Blaise go that far?

That thing. Of all things.

The one in the plane and in the auction.

The horns are a little special.

The connections to the present are happening. What do they mean?

Just twist it a bit...

What's the problem, Courtney?

John Marsh as in the one here?

The president and John.

The age difference was quite small, come to think of it.

Sounded like a nice person.

I see.

So he was the father.

So I guess there was a thing between her and the president.

I suppose she didn't have problems maintaining herself and John.

Following her, you say?

Blaise would do what it takes to achieve his goal.

If he wants to know, who are we to stop him?

John says he killed the president unintentionally. Perhaps that's what troubles him.

I suppose it's the "proof".

Oh, that's right. One of his subordinates had something to say.

His last wishes.

Something troubles Lang.

That seems like a pretty strong backing up.

Just in case he wouldn't live to see the day.

JOOOOOOOOOHN!

It must be quite tough on him.

I don't think I can do much more than let things flow.

He might be right.

This is sad, but we can't sob all day.

So then, it's time to test the present.

If your father won't say, then I know someone who will.

Those 12 years must have hurt.

Bring it on.

That sounds about right, but I can't help but feel that it is misinterpreting something.

You're right. It is quite perplexing.

Ok, now I'm sure of the problem.

So it would seem.

No doubt about it. There were two murders.

I'm sure of it.

There would appear to be not enough evidence to know.

It survived for so long against Blaise.

I can think of one reason only.

He kept the only record of the kid's eye-witness.

Dogen is involved too. This case is starting to make sense and lose sense.

I can't believe it happened, but it did.

The president was killed, and both witnesses couldn't say it.

That's quite a problem, yes.

That whole incident with Knightley went deeper than I thought.

The president we met.

There are a few ways, but one is the most plausible scenario.

Yes, that is the easiest way.

Who else but the president?

Either way, it will be hard on him, but I must go on.

If the kid's drawing is to be taken, then the president was really at both the embassy and the orphanage.

It wouldn't be a good idea to send a double to see his son.

Ergo, after the assassination.

He was about the only alive person that looked enough like the president.

One place comes to mind.

Something that would destroy the plan and the three conspirators.

Bones are quite tough to decompose.

Blaise had no other chance.

So, it's settled, then?

Episode 113: The Assassin Who Isn't Assassinating

Spoiler

So that happened.

Specifically, a double murder.

No earlier, no later.

As the evidence would suggest.

He just happened to be at the wrong place at the wrong time.

He was a little off, though.

We know what happened next.

It wouldn't matter much, really.

One of a peculiar use.

So, how come there was no direct trace of it?

That's very nice.

Not without a big scandal that would have helped none.

You see Kay, there's a thing about the French lady or two.

12 years wouldn't change his feet enough if we take into account how he is now.

If he is as good investigating as you say, yes.

So he knew at least one truth about the SS-5 Incident.

For the best of Zheng Fa, it seems.

Hold on a second. That voice.

We speaked of the devil so much and he only appeared until now.

Dogen keeps finding ways to perplex me.

Some young man.

So, Dogen's our way to the mastermind.

I honestly don't know how to feel about that.

Neither the police nor Dogen know.

The motive. We about know it, but anyway.

Envy and lust, it seems. Quite like Knightley, huh.

But seriously.

The body double was like Knightley, and the real one was like Rooke.

Just like Knightley finding an opportunity against Rooke.

We know quite a bit about the fire, but do tell.

That's low, but I wouldn't put it past Blaise, I guess.

He...

A life-saving "prank".

There's something intriguing about Dogen's testimony. Let's press it all.

Well, I guess you did happen to not kill anyone since your incarceration so far.

Well Kay, you see...

You certainly do look like a guy that would know Shelly.

Kay, that one was awful.

Well, that was kind of pointless.

Episode 114: That Case Too

Spoiler

You literally killed the president.

Well, he's right. Moving on, I guess.

Something about it sounds familiar.

Well then.

That sounded reasonable, but there was something peculiar.

I have no doubts about it now.

Seemingly gone for very long.

That's quite low.

Like, how come?

So then that means...

Dover's or Gustavia's son.

This is a more direct talk about the mastermind. We'll see what we find.

At least it seems like a logical story.

Oh yeah, she mentioned that.

Do tell.

The last meeting he had.

He knew he was going to die, so he only plead for one thing.

As far as we know, that appears to be the situation.

Can't prevent him from eavesdropping now that it's happened, I guess.

And would easily ruin the whole plan.

The French Lady would either comply to Dogen's demands or have everything revealed.

I think I have enough of the story. It's time to start pressing it all.

That's an interesting statement.

So, he kept contact with the acolyte.

Could Knightley be the acolyte?

Think of the evidence.

We had not paid attention to it earlier, but it makes so much sense.

But that raises a question.

Dover was quite lonely, it seems.

So Knightley is Dover's son. Go figure.

I wish such a thing were possible.

Gustavia's son. Now who would that be?

Wait what.

At any rate, there wouldn't be much of a reason to eat you over Gumshoe, but I suppose it still is reasonable fear.

A pointless press, but whatever.

Commentator's Note: Sorry, I forgot to screenshot the third statement. It's still there when Dogen first says it, but just want to apologize.

A mastermind who is Gustavia's son. What else am I missing?

Kay please.

That is far from the least believable thing I've heard today.

We can't have Dogen's testimony stop now, unfortunately.

There was one thing about everything so far that catches my attention.

Episode 115: It's Always The Clowns

Spoiler

It seems to make sense, but something about it is odd.

It was mostly correspondence chess, as far as we know.

I'm sure now of what the problem is in the story.

Any way you look at it, it's not in braille.

Since neither can write the way the other can, it would seem so.

So that would be how Knightley would comprehend what Dogen writes.

Knightley didn't know Dogen all that well. Dogen knew Knightley, but he didn't know he knew him. It only makes sense.

This whole letter discrepancy can hardly be explained otherwise.

We might just be able to figure it out. Let's quickly review the situation.

Let's see. Gustavia's son was Knightley's friend in elementary, was he not?

And he still is Knightley's friend. I don't want to believe it, but that's how it is.

The one who I thought was just an unlucky person in regards to when he contacted his friend.

Simon Keyes.

Son of Dane Gustavia.

Performer at the Berry Big Circus.

Regina Berry's subordinate.

And as it all leads to, the mastermind.

But before I can take him on, I must learn about one last thing.

And these two reporters will finally prove very useful.

This photo has hidden the nature of the "monster" for far too long.

I have no doubts now.

I guess we underestimated the mastermind's abilities a bit.

The Moozilla lead has been dead for long. It's time to get real.

It should be very obvious.

I guess that someone did go flying two nights ago.

It's crystal clear now.

Him.

This time we really will have to go against him.

Someone's running away!

Of course he'd attack me with Anubis!

Yes, the one who could have legitimately killed me.

Wait, you don't mean!

Ok, it's all good. I certainly wouldn't want a case of murder with John as the guilty one.

We've gone too far now for the mastermind to not be caught.

I have a bit of an idea of where it might be.

The mastermind has managed to get his plot just like he wanted for some time.

This confrontation will be where it all ends.

Well, we had to confront him sooner or later.

Yeah, about that...

I want to have one thing clear.

I have a good idea, but tell me yourself.

Heh.

And had her "accidentally" involved in the murder of Jill Crane.

More like how could you do this?

I will accept that you fooled me that time, but not now.

I tried.

But you must remember Simon...

..I told you that if the evidence said you were guilty, I'd have no mercy.

In our case, pity.

I must say, it was quite a fun act.

But it's time we went to reality.

The one who masterminds the game. (Commentator's Note: I don't really like Simon, but his theme is nice.)

Even now he is using his persuasive tactics.

This will not be an easy battle.

That's a little vague.

But it appears he is more or less saying the truth.

Okay, let's see.

Yeah, that would seem like an acceptable story.

Neither of us has the time to debate aerodynamics, and you know it.

Something about that is just strange.

Basically, yes.

I guess not.

I don't have a problem, but the evidence might.

Some interesting stuff would happen of it.

Well, for now the battle is going where I want it to.

Well, this is some very nice evidence.

Where does a clown like you get an objection voice like yours?

Come on man, imitating my voice and Objection! is a low blow.

Although I do believe I can present evidence to it.

At least, the evidence definitely exists.

It's all thanks to...me!

Ok, a simple print analysis comparison with mine should be done soon.

Or this could happen. Oh boy, I have to do it myself.

No seriously.

This is just strange.

Right.

Episode 117: You Are The Son

Spoiler

Ok, this is a good start.

There's a simple logical conclusion to this.

I mean, you're telling me you just happened to fly by Kay's abduction?

Commentator's Note: If I didn't dislike Simon so much, I'd be much more amused by his laughing animation.

Same MO, different criminal? You tell me.

Come on man, there's something about him as a mastermind and these two kidnappings.

This clown is not being very funny.

Different MO, same criminal. It's too difficult to link them.

Thanks for objecting Ray.

Ok, what are you doing?

As time progresses, Kay gets scarier.

The mastermind is also Dane Gustavia's son and was the middleman between Dogen and Knightley....

I can think of one thing that is for sure.

If I cannot pursue the kidnapper part, then I'll go to the middleman part.

As you please.

So, let's get back to the show.

So to say.

Not quite Simon, not quite.

The received letters are written differently than how each would write letters.

That would appear to be the case, Kay.

If Simon really changes the letters, then they must exist.

They all say that.

The french lady is the killer, but him creating the fake connection is the only other thing about it that makes sense.

Oh, Regina.

Been dead for some time.

Oh, this is quite nice.

Later than should be.

It's a simple explanation.

Kay has a point.

I mean, 18 years and you never ended up forgiving him or something?

It seems Dover was a monster too.

Sounds like what we learned about Gustavia's son.

The two of them went missing and Dogen led them into an orphanage. It about matches up.

You kind of seem alike, I guess.

Although I think you're misinterpreting this.

That's an interesting conclusion, but this is where I'm ahead of you.

Quite greedy it seems.

Because if I have one thing clear...

It's that you should have considered who Knightley is better.

Because Simon Keyes...

...this will turn your view of the world very hard.

By the way, no episodes will be posted this weekend.
