Hey, I'm back to ask more questions! They're a little case-5-spoilerific, though, so proceed with care!

Spoiler:
I kinda lost track over which times Phoenix was talking to Dahlia in T&T case 5, and which times he was actually talking to Iris. Specifically, did Phoenix talk to both of them during the day before the murder? Or did he only get to see the real Iris?

Also, I need to know: When did the real Iris enter the courtroom, after Maya channeling Dahlia pretending to be Iris was unmasked and summarily exorcised? Was she in the room during the whole part where they uncovered Godot's part in the conspiracy and Phoenix and Mia did that full-sync finger-pointy thing? Or did she only arrive for the verdict when everything was over?


thanks in advance

In answer to your first question, Phoenix spoke with only Iris on the day of the murder. Dahlia isn't channeled until ten that night (by Misty to stop Pearl from being able to) He meets with Dahlia for the first time after he finally gets out of the hospital and is investigating. After the earthquake, Iris runs off because she's worried that the Inner Chamber might have collapsed and she wanted to check on Maya. It is then that Dahlia locks Iris up in her place. You don't see Iris again until right after Dahlia's breakdown. There is a short period where you speak with her right before Maya's testimony. She must have been in the room for Maya's testimony and Godot's confession since we do see her right before. As the defendant, she is required to be in court. I hope that helps. :edgy:

Yeah, that helps. Thanks!

Hm, I wonder if Iris and/or the judge saw Mia teaming up with Phoenix to point at Godot...

Nah, I'm pretty sure he was too busy looking at the speaker at that point. Namely, Godot.

... alright, in all seriousness? Godot saw part of Mia within Phoenix, because he was very close with Mia. However, the Judge wasn't.... I hope.

Also, to Mia Fey...
Spoiler: 3-5
I'm also pretty sure that Dahlia knocked Iris out or something, otherwise, the people in the cell woud've seen Iris easily (Dahlia had to hide to avoid detection).

Actually, the speaker at that point was Phoenix. There is a bit of internal monologue, but it's where he proves the wound is under the mask. So everyone in the court would be looking at him. (Unless they were preoccupied, which I buy for Iris, but not for the judge.)

See, that's the issue, isn't it? Did only the people close to Mia see it, or was it a real, supernatural phenomenon? Actually, even if it was the former, that means Maya probably saw it, too.

Why should Dahlia care about the people in the cell seeing the exchange? She locked them in afterwards with a whole bunch of trick locks, which even with Franziska's help only got opened when the trial was already going. I think she figured she'd have more than enough time. So all she really had to do was surprise Iris, drag and throw her inside, get out, and quickly shut and lock the door again.

Isn't it obvious? If you were speaking to Iris and you saw Iris in the cell... I don't think I need to say much else.

Also, what do you mean "people in the cell"? Only Iris was in there! Andif anyone saw her in there... well...

You were first talking about "people in the cell". Now I finally realize where the misunderstanding in our conversation is. I don't think you realize that the screen in the inner temple is actually the outside of the cell. We never get to see the inside, behind the trick locks, where the real Iris is. While we're there talking to Iris!Dahlia who just made the switch, the real Iris is sitting behind that door with the locks. Where no one is able to look, hear or listen, thus no need to knock her out and hide her body.

And when you said "people in the cell" I assumed that Pearls was in there as well, because I had already forgotten again whether she was in there with Iris or not.

Ah...

Ye see, My complaint is this:
Spoiler: 3-5
Why would Iris just do something so.. STUPID as walk into the cell herself and let her sister form the locks, then Iris hides in the back area, where it's freezing cold? Also, they said that they found Iris there, and she didn't seem like she wanted to be in that Cavern when she was uncovered...

Iris was worried that the Sacred Cavern (which is the inside of that cell) collapsed, because there had been an earthquake moments before. That is the reason she opened the cell - she wanted to check on Maya, who was supposed to be training there.

I'll admit that I didn't take that close a look at this before, but what we see behind the bars in this image is the entrance to a cave.

The dialogue from the characters corroborates that the police didn't know who was inside before they actually got the trick locks off and went inside. Thus, what we see behind the bars is the entrance to a tunnel which leads to the sacred cavern.

Maya and later Iris were further in the back, where they couldn't be seen through the bars. We have no evidence that there are more obstacles/locks further in the cavern, but it is the only possible explanation for why Iris didn't wait just on the other side of that gate to be rescued.


Am I making sense so far?

Also remember that Iris is loyal to her sister even if she knows she's a deranged murderer, and has willingly cooperated in her schemes before. Even if she could have been seen in the cave, she might not have made herself known at first.

How does that contradict what I said? :yuusaku:

Anyway, she could have been tied up. Nobody says she wasn't found in that condition, just that she was in the cave.

Except by this point Iris had decided to work against her sister. She knew about the plan from Godot and willingly took part in it, so she had to know she was going against her sister's wishes. All of Iris's actions seem to contradict the idea that she was willing helping her sister. Also remember that everyone was worried about whether or not Maya was still even alive in there, so there couldn't have been any noise from inside and no one can stay perfectly still for a whole day or longer even if they try (which is what Iris would have had to do in that case). Even if Iris had not been willing to call out, the people outside the chamber should have still heard movement of some sort since Dahlia tells us she could hear Pearl enter at one point. Dahlia doesn't specify how they switched places, just that she locked her sister away in her place. I think its far more plausible that Iris was unconscious and/or tied up in the back of the Cavern where she couldn't be heard.

Iris loved her sister, despite her intentions. However, she never felt like she could help her sister commit these crimes, so she ran, and we know that she ran so far away. All she did was just run, all night, and all day...

But if there's one thing the PW sewies taught us, it's this.

She couldn't get away.

Phoenix, Dahlia, both managed to locate her again...


And yes, that was an "A Flock Of Seagulls" reference.

Well, I thought to show a possibility how Iris wasn't able to be seen behind the Inner Temple bars. If Dahlia tied Iris up, it would have taken more time, and she would have had to catch Iris by surprise or subdue her. It's just as possible as a further barrier back in the cave, I guess, so we can probably pick the scenario that suits us.

As for the noise... We have no idea what's in the back of that cave. You could make up any number of scenarios. For example, if there was one of those waterfalls required for the training course back in the cave, Iris' movement or cries for help might have been drowned out.

She couldn't have been tied up and tossed in! Dahlia had unlocked the gate when she saw her sister there. She'd have to be super-fast to get her in a state where she could be tied up, and placed in the back of the cavern, and THEN to leave the cavern area and lock it. It's take too much time.

Not just that, but also, there's the matter of how exactly Dahlis could've gotten Iris into that state. She would either had to've...
1) Convinced her to do that (errr... huh?)
2) Knocked her out and tied her up.

If it's the latter, than I can't comment any further, since that was my idea originally.

I lean toward your second choice about what happened.
Spoiler: 3-5
We know that Dahlia testifies that she was able to hear Pearl enter and in her subdued and frightened state, I can't see Pearl being particularly loud. On the other hand for a whole day at least they were working on that gate and would have been listening for signs that Maya was even alive. Since this is still in question by the next day, we can assume that nothing had changed to make them believe a living person was inside. This would mean that Iris wouldn't have made any noise during that entire period. That's just not possible. Nobody can just not move for that long, so Iris couldn't have simply been hiding in there. Now to answer why Pearl doesn't hear Dahlia. Pearl is nine and was distraught by everything that was going on. She was throwing gravy at the scroll and crying, not listening for sounds inside the Cavern. Franziska, on the other hand, would have been listening for any noises inside the Cavern (even if they were extremely, she would likely have reported this as proof that Maya was okay). Godot had already given the she's probably dead speech which had upset her pretty badly. She would have been looking for proof that he was wrong. Knocking Iris out and tying her up would have been easy and quick particularly considering Dahlia had little time. Iris was only out of their sight for a short period and the switch was done and the locks set by the time they got there. Convincing Iris would have taken to long and I agree that chasing her down and tying her up is the same problem. Since Iris expected Maya to be on the other side of that door, she wouldn't have expected Dahlia to be waiting. Then bam, she's unconscious and Dahlia is free. A second to tie her up, lock her away, and put up the trick locks before anyone got there.

Keep in mind that Phoenix & Co were in the Main Temple when the earthquake happened, and it takes a long time to even get to the bridge on foot - 15 or 30 minutes? 10 by snowmobile? Damn, I don't remember anymore. But I think it was more than enough time for Dahlia to do her business as soon as Iris arrived.

That still doesn't explain how, if Iris was lose, nobody heard her. Even if she was trying to keep quiet, it isn't possible to stay perfectly still for a whole day if you're conscious. And don't forget it takes Iris the same amount of time to get to the Sacred Cavern (Edgeworth couldn't have moved during the earthquake so he and Iris must have still been outside the main temple. Besides Iris likely made her escape in the seconds before Edgeworth recovered, after the ground stopped shaking as moving during a serious earthquake is extremely difficult if not almost impossible). She had a very short head start on them. That doesn't change the time difference.

I thought I explained that already with my tunnel theory. If there is a bit of distance between that gate with the locks and the Sacred Chamber, any noise made there might not be audible, but Iris and Dahlia could still have traversed the distance in a matter of seconds. All that's needed is another lock/door/gate/obstacle further in that prevented Dahlia/Iris coming up to the gate and you have your explanation. Or am I missing something again?

There's no evidence that any of that is there. Not to mention Dahlia heard Pearl as I mentioned in an earlier post. I think it was even mentioned at some point that it was just a room, but I may be remembering that wrong. Godot plays on the no sound and the harshness of the weather to push his point that Maya was dead. Besides try sitting still for a whole day. Even on a comfortable couch, that's really hard to do. Imagine doing so in that environment. Even with your tunnels, if Iris got up to move to relieve some of her now aching muscles, noise should have been heard (Loyalty to Dahlia aside, it's just not possible. Shuffling should at least have been heard). Also, no evidence that she was still loyal to Dahlia as Iris had been working against Dahlia's wishes the whole time. Add in the small period of time Iris was missing and its hard to say that Iris was conscious in there.

Simple idea: Iris and Edgeworth were on their way to the cavern, maybe halfway along the path, and then the earthquake struck. Edgeworth passed out, and Iris ran to the Inner Temple. Edgeworth later on, woke up, and met with Phoenix and Franziska. He asked when he got there, if they saw Iris, so it would account for the time difference. Then Dahlia would have much more time, to allow the events to commence. It makes sense... time-wise anyways...

Except that I think he said he lost consciousness briefly from his fear. I'll concede that they may have been a short distance from the Main Hall when the earthquake started, but they couldn't have made it far. Even if he didn't pass out, he can't act for a short period afterward (ex. 1-4) and that's how Iris got away from him. Either way directly afterward he wouldn't have been together enough to have made it far on his way back. They couldn't have been that far from the Main Hall or Phoenix and Franziska couldn't have found him directly outside.

True... but a few other things to think about:

How much time would it take for the events with Phoenix, Fraziska, and Edgeworth near the Main Temple, to commence?

They left almost instantly. Edgey- "She fled. We must search for her." Phoenix- "She'll be at the Inner Temple." They leave. Still not enough to give Dahlia much time.

I meant how long from the main hall, to the Main Gate. That could've taken about 5 mins, PLUS talking with Bikini, AND comforting and negotiating with Edgeworth (he wanted a search team, remember?)

We saw what they did. Earthquake happens and Phoenix and Franziska get worried about Edgeworth so they run out to check on him. Then he tell them he lost her and they leave. They don't talk with Bikini directly after the earthquake except as a parting comment to say they're leaving. Phoenix talks him out of search team instantly. He trusts Phoenix, so when Phoenix says he's sure she's at the temple, he pretty much agrees.

Ah! We don't know how long these scenes take though, to speak!

An example to substantiate my point is Iris and Phoenix. Their brief conversation before Iris rings the bell could've lasted a while, because Iris says that she had 2 rush and ring the bell, and they met before 9:30 PM, so...?

Don't forget that conversation was going into areas that Iris really didn't want to discuss and we don't know how long it takes to get to the bell tower, so the example isn't really fair. Iris could have made up that she needed to leave at that moment so that she didn't give herself away to him. Besides that one has a questioning session and this one was, not only much briefer (in game time), but didn't. Part of that time was also spent talking with Elise as well which would have eaten time.

We know that Iris says "It's almost time! I better go!", so we DO know that they spent a while there.

Also, Elise's conversation is even shorter than Edgeworth's with Phoenix and Franziska, eh?

To all people reading this debate:

"Welcome to the show! Please! Come inside, ladies and gentlemen!"

What? Nothing's better than a good ol' debate!

Or she was making it up so that Phoenix wouldn't question her any more. He kept asking about her past and we know that was the one thing she didn't want him to know.

Hmm... It may be possible, but still, Phoenix somewhat "confirms" the timing, since he states that it was very late anyways.

"Anyways" being the key word. That doesn't confirm what time it is, just that it's late, which depends on your version of late (particularly with how much had gone on that day he was probably tired and we know he was cold). To me it sounded more like a "oh well nothing more for me here I guess anyways." Sort of just resigned that he really hadn't discovered much (except that Iris knew him) and some disappointment.

See, this would be much easier if the time was always stated.

Now, one of the arguments, however, is that Iris' conversation was much longer than Edgeworths', and Elise's was much shorter than Edgeworth's. Now, here's the scenerio. Elise's conversation must've happened IMMEDIATELY, as in, about a 20 second span, for it to be considered a "normal" aspect of time.

I'll try to explain it better: If Elise's was around the same amount of time as Edgeworth's, then we KNOW that Iris' would be... almost 3 times as long as either, thus, damaging our time theory.

Here's a mission for anyone who chooses to accept it, particularily Mia Fey (the forum user, obvi.). Play 3-5 until you get to the earthquake scene, then when you encounter Edgeworth, state what time it is. Next, state the time when the Inner Temple scene takes place (I KNOW that scene will be recorded with a time), and we'll have an easier time frame to work with.

I am busy typing up a few Magatama scripts for 3-3, so I am unable to do it yet, but I'll try to do it as well, in a few days time.

This might not be worth bringing up, but if Dahlia did go to the effort to tie Iris up, why didn't she just, uh, kill her instead? It's not like Dahlia needed her alive for anything and even if she couldn't find a rock or something for a weapon, it'd be faster and easier to strangle an unsuspecting person or snap their neck than go find some rope and bind them up.

Dahlia has always gone out of her way to not physically harm Iris. Even when Iris failed her (Dahlia isn't exactly tolerant of others mistakes), Dahlia never harmed her. Hell when Dahlia was pretending to be Iris on the stand, she seems to be trying to swing the murder charge away from her sister (she clearly thought Maya was dead so it wasn't like she could hurt Maya more by pinning the crime on her). Iris was the one person who truly loved her and although Dahlia isn't exactly the loving sister type, it is clear that on some level she cared for her sister enough to feel betrayed by her. Usually the people who can hurt you the most are the ones you care about the most. You can't feel truly betrayed by someone you don't care about, so the amount of anger Dahlia shows about Iris's betrayal indicates that she did care. Iris's actions are the only ones referred to as betrayal by Dahlia as I recall. If my memory is accurate, the others involved in Dahlia's crimes were referred to as being stupid and incompetent when they failed but I think only Iris gets dubbed as a backstabber. Dahlia waited six months before acting to get incriminating evidence back all because her sister asked her to wait. Dahlia would not have killed Iris because on some level that would have hurt her. I'm not saying she did it for Iris's sake. She did it for her own sake. Remember a spirit can't be hurt physically but can be harmed emotionally and mentally hence why Dahlia wanted to kill Maya to get at Mia. Harming Iris would have been like harming herself.
