Good day, Wright. I was wondering if I might be able to beg a bit of help from you.

[voice]

[mightiswright]

Morning, Edgeworth.

What is it?

[voice]

[glassinine]

You are perhaps aware of the recent rash of arrests.

[voice] oh my god i didn't see this......

[mightiswright]

[ Is that a guilty pause before he answers? Maybe. ]

... I am. What about it?

[voice] how dare you

[glassinine]

I wish to request your assistance. Some of those who have been arrested are imPorts in desperate need of a competent defense.

[voice] i have no excuse

[mightiswright]

[ Definitely a guilty pause now. ]

I'd love to... but I'm a little tied up at the moment.

[voice] forgiveness nevertheless

[glassinine]

...What is that supposed to mean?

[voice] \o/

[mightiswright]

Remember when you told me to call you if my investigation went south?

[voice]

[glassinine]

...I take it you completely failed to do so.

[voice]

[mightiswright]

[ Hah.... hahaha... ]

Well, we're on the phone now, aren't we?

[voice]

[glassinine]

Stop beating around the bush and tell me what's happened.

[voice]

[mightiswright]

[ YOU ASKED FOR IT. ]

I'm in jail for committing armed robbery.

[voice] 1/4

[glassinine]

[voice] 2/4

[glassinine]

[voice] 3/4

[glassinine]

[voice]

[glassinine]

Please tell me this is some idiotic prank.

[voice]

[mightiswright]

[ Wow that was a long pause. Phoenix clears his throat slightly. ]

... This is an idiotic prank.

[voice]

[glassinine]

Now tell me that and actually mean it, Wright.

[voice]

[mightiswright]

[ Sigh. ]

You can come down to the police station to visit if you don't believe me.

[voice]

[glassinine]

Which station.

[A question born less of needing proof than a matter of needing to see him and see what can be done to help.]

[voice]

[mightiswright]

The one a block down from the courthouse.

[voice]

[glassinine]

I'll be there in five minutes.

[action]

[mightiswright]

Okay.

[ He'll just be here... twiddling his thumbs... his usual routine when he gets thrown in jail. ]

[action]

[glassinine]

[And, true to his word - he's there quickly. He's a little bit in disarray - his hair is slightly mussed, and his cravat is tied in a rather perfunctory way. He was relaxing when this fell into his lap.

His voice is urgent when he comes into the room:]

Wright. Who's representing you?

[action]

[mightiswright]

I don't know yet. I've only been here a few hours when you called.
