Episode Title:
Turnabout Samurai – Last Trial.
Episode Description:
The trial resumes with Vasquez taking the witness stand and Phoenix presenting the information he received from Cody. Vasquez claims that she could not have used the alleged murder weapon, the Samurai Spear, as it is too heavy. Phoenix deduces that the spear is not the murder weapon, but lacks the evidence to prove it. Upset by the proceeding, Cody stands up for his sense of justice, which inspires Oldbag to give Phoenix a photo of the earlier studio accident used by Vasquez to blackmail Hammer, revealing the actual weapon to be the spiked fence outside Studio 2's trailer. When challenged with finding Vasquez's motive, Phoenix posits that Hammer had attempted to murder Vasquez and was killed in self-defense, but is again without proof. Realizing Vasquez's guilt, Edgeworth forces her to testify about what happened after the body was found, providing Phoenix with the opening needed to expose her as the true culprit.
