* "Ash Tray"

!! The case will be partially Wonderbolts related, but it will also involve the {{Jerkass}} guard "Ash Tray" in some form.
The guard has been getting significant amounts of focus to varying degrees throughout Case 2. It's entirely possible that the "Discharge" element could end up being related to him, and we finally get some insight as to what's going on with him and his possible ties to the broader mysteries afoot.

** Turning Page and Fair Devotion are both innocent of the crime, but due to a complicated web of circumstances and coincidences (and outside forces), everyone ''thought'' one or the other was responsible. They're both trying to cover for each other out of a misguided attempt to protect the person they ''think'' might have committed the crime, but in reality neither of them have any idea as to what is going on, operating only on incomplete information. For that matter, Turning Page's bruise is a partial RedHerring; he DID get hurt, but not the way everyone thinks he did.\\

With the revelation that no one at the court was responsible for Royal Order's death, and no one able to confirm why Royal Order died (or possibly the implication that some other party might be responsible, the trial will be suspended in order for both prosecution and defense to figure out what the hell is going on. Which ends up leading into the next case.

* Due to the conflicting emotions that Athena's been sensing throughout the case from Sugar Stamp and Fair Devotion, its possible that there was no affair and that it was created to give Sugar Stamp a motive for killing Royal Order. Also if you compare [[https://mega.nz/folder/rwJXmSJQ#70q5CwcPgb_XXnRQX8V3UQ/folder/e4gHkayS the letter]] to the [[https://mega.nz/folder/rwJXmSJQ#70q5CwcPgb_XXnRQX8V3UQ/folder/e4gHkayS calendar]] from Turning Page's house you'll notice that they're similar, meaning that Fair Devotion might've been the one to write the note

!! The truth is that NONE of the accused did it, and the case ends with the trial suspended until they can get more information.

* While he's still concerned about potential clients back home on Earth, two gruesome deaths back-to-back in a usually peaceful land has him concerned. He'll go back to Earth temporarily to talk to Edgeworth and smooth things over while he and the others are gone, then return to Equestria.

* Cruise Control-the very first trailer of the story shows us that he ''is going to return''. So while this is exciting he could be a character we see through out the story, [[BackForTheDead only to end up dead by the near-end]]. Cruise could find out about something horrible or get involved with something (probably about the High Council]], and end up murdered to be silenced from telling anyone else.

Considering all the build-up around her, it's not hard to imagine she's the endgame big bad. However, it could be while she is going to a be major obstacle, the reason could be she's being manipulated by the true big bad through lies and deceit.

!! Royal Order was killed at Froggy Bottom Bog
* It was mentioned that Royal Order and Turning Page would go to the bog often to spare with the monsters there. So when Royal Order learned his son was in the Everfree Forest this would've been the first place he would've gone to look for him and after he was killed his body was moved using the CMC cape to keep the blood from spilling out. They also could've used the river that connects the bog to the path to the castle to move the body without being seen.

!! The overall theme of this game is Logic vs Intuition and Friendship
* It's started with Rarity's unshakable certainty in Coco's innocence, even when on some light digging, there were reasons to suspect her. Then with Scootaloo, there's points of doubt and fear in the ability of others to protect her, or on the capabilities of Athena. So, the overall story will be about how logic is always useful, but it's nothing without the value systems behind it. So that Friendship, Trust and intuition are just as important to use in defending others. In other words, finding a harmony between Phoenix's ironclad learning to believe in a client, and a lawyer's skills to use logic to reach the truth. And by extension, the main villain will be someone whose sense of logic causes her to [[SillyRabbitIdealismIsForKids try to engineer the fall of the government and structures that prioritize friendship and harmony as the greatest powers of all.]]

!! Individual Clue guesses
* The letter from Scootaloo's parents is going to hold some secret significance. That it details a secret that will become relevant to the trial.
* The leaves and twigs in Sweetie's trash..are the remains of a timberwolf. That Sweetie saw what happened near the statue when a timberwolf tore them apart, and it lead to the locks on her heart because she knows a truth that's horrific.
