( The feed flickers on to a young man sitting at a table in the apartments in all of his courtroom finery. While he very much looks as though he's done his best to make himself as presentable as possible, there's no disguising the bags under his eyes. This is very much a man who has not had very a good night's sleep in a long time. )

Good morning. For those who I've not met before, my name is Miles Edgeworth. I was a prosecuting attorney from Los Angeles, California, in the United States of America on the planet Earth.

( Truly, what has his life come to that he has to make that clarification! )

I have been reflecting on the events that have occurred since our arrival on this planet, particularly during the festival. ( The plants had been bizarre and all, but he hadn't overly involved himself with them, having found other people more suited to what he has decided to consider extreme weeding. )

While I understand that the natives of this world might be more accustomed to free intimate contact between strangers, I consider it downright criminal that our food and drink at the festival might have been laced with substances that affect our behaviour without our knowledge or consent. If anyone suspects they may have consumed some of the contaminated items, I would be most interested in talking with you further.

I did, unfortunately. Though I guess the good news is that I ran into someone who was able to do something to negate the effects.

Are you going to be taking all this as a case to the authorities? If so, I'd be more than happy to give a testimony or something.

I'm planning on compiling everyone's experiences and presenting it to the authorities, yes.

What do you mean that they were able to negate the effects?

She cast some sort of spell on me. I think she said something about how it neutralizes poisons and such from people. I wasn't really expecting it, but at least she asked me before she did her magic thing.

... A spell.

( Edgeworth sounds seriously unimpressed. )

Did you just not bother to listen for an explanation?

[Ed hears that tone in your voice, Mr. Edgeworth.]

Yeah, I thought it was crazy at first too. From what I could gather she was able to draw on some kind of power with this thing she had that she called an astrometer. There were these cards floating around it too but...

[He glances off screen to the cluttered mess that is still his coffee table. He's been trying to take notes on all this magic nonsense.]

...it's all pretty complicated. Whatever she did seemed to do the trick though, and I'm not about to file a complaint against her.

It sounds like the chocolate could potentially induce hallucinations as well.

( Yes, that's the only way any of this makes any sense! )

You don't believe me? I had the same thoughts about all this magic crap too until I saw it for myself.

[Even then it took an argument before he was willing to accept that maybe there were things going on beyond what he could explain with his understanding of science.]

There's plenty of people around that would be happy to demonstrate for you. Feel free to let me know how you'd explain the science behind it when you do.

A demonstration will not change my mind. People will make all sorts of outlandish claims if it serves their needs.

Whatever you say.

Hmph. Nonetheless, thank you for your information.
