[WINSTON PAYNE, spoken]

Uh, Mr. Edgeworth? You asked to see me?

[MILES EDGEWORTH, spoken]

That’s Prosecutor Edgeworth to you, Winston Payne. A title for which you seem to hold no respect…not even for yourself. Five cases this quarter, all of them losses. The “Rookie Killer,” indeed

[PAYNE, spoken]

Sir. I prepared my case...as best as I could. I was ready to—

[EDGEWORTH, spoken]

Save your breath. I have no need for excuses. And I’m not the one to whom you’ll have to explain yourself

[PAYNE, spoken]

No…please…you're not reporting me to...him?

[EDGEWORTH, spoken]

I must. You’re aware of his stance on such matters. I’d hate to be in your place…Mister Payne. You may go now

[sung]

Guilty convictions no matter the cost

That is the role of the prosecutor

Keeping the peace in these dangerous times

Is the sacred decree we must heed

[DICK GUMSHOE, spoken]

Mr. Edgeworth, sir! I’ve got the new paperwork for the murder of that lawyer lady, uh, Mia Fey?

[EDGEWORTH, spoken]

Thank you, Detective. Now, back to work. The criminals out there are relentless…but so are we

[sung]

Perfection is the life we lead!
