** Request for a class-action lawsuit, in the sum of $200,000,000 and $50,000 in punitve damages, and criminal charges:

** Courtroom Lobbys in the Ace Attorney series being well-guarded? In one of the games, a prosecutor and a defendant are murdered in one, while in another game Phoenix himself is being attacked with a fire extinguisher while in one of these.

* The timeline, from the Ace Attorney perspective, is kinda messed up if you consider all the facts. References to Hazakura Temple, Luke Atmey, ect., place it after Trials & Tribulations. But Maya comments that Phoenix has "always gotten a not guilty verdict", which would place it before "Farewell, My Turnabout" (Although it's worth noting that she could very well be talking metaphorically, plus since Matt's guilty verdict in Farewell, My Turnabout was a victory, morally, for Wright, it can be overlooked too). The special episodes also show Phoenix a year after the main game, yet he's still a lawyer (he states he's got a trial coming up), despite him losing his badge a month after Trials & Tribulations's events. One explanation could be that this is placed as a general "what if" with no actual timeline placement.

* How did Luke manage to catch Espella and Darklaw with the crane? Ignoring the fact that it's pretty ridiculous that a kid could learn how to operate a crane like that so quickly, they were falling downwards towards the ground. The crane's grabbers are aimed downwards, like any normal crane with grabbers. To grab on to them as they fell, Luke would've had to have waited until they past the crane, then dropped the crane suddenly to grab onto them before they hit the ground. Considering how little room there actually was between the crane and the ground though that seems really improbable to me.

* What's with the way Arthur Cantabella revealed his "incurable disease". 'I'm suffering from this disease no one can cure!' - Several moments later 'Nah just kidding. They've found a cure. I'll be fine'. It's like he did it that way just to be an asshole and make everyone upset.

** Darklaw was attempting to take Espella before anything could happen but she gets caught on the tanker and is slapped with assault. She then tweaked her plan to let Espella be sentenced guilty, then take her back. Phoenix and Maya look at the book fir themselves (Which I assume starts the contract) and all of a sudden Darklaw has two people who are going to be in a hypnotised state for about a day, which will look odd to anyone around during that timeframe. All she could do to lower suspicions is take them along and give them a part in the Story.\\

* Why was Darklaw okay with Espella getting convicted for the assault charges? I assume she use€d the ink to keep her in a trance during that entire time.

*** Also, remember that not all these people have been there from the start. Arthur says that more and more people joined over time, growing the tiny village into a town plus an army of hundreds of shades. If someone with a seven-year-old child joined just a year ago, it's likely that their consent was given for their child as well as for themselves. There may not have been ''any'' children born in Laborynthia; even the new baby could have come in with its mother only the day before and everybody would act like they'd lived there all their lives.
