Funny / Turnabout Musical

aka: Phoenix Wright Musical Project

• It's Gotta Be The Insanity!, a suitably insane version of "It's Gotta Be The Butz" that TriforceBun improvised on a whim.
• The original version of "The Rookie Killer" had Payne break the fourth wall, complaining that if everyone else got a song he should too.
• After Redd White's Villain Song, Belinda deadpans "Yeah, I quit."
• Any time Phoenix mentions Grossberg's past he launches into the gag song "The Scent of Fresh Lemons." The second time has it happen as a homophone for "passed," while the third time is initiated by Grossberg himself.
• Phoenix's opening statement for the Second Half of the Redd White Case: "I didn't do it."
• The Samurai Always Wins gives us a lovely bit of Hypocritical Humor as Edgeworth of all people tells Phoenix to "quit acting so smug!"
• The script for case 3 notes that when Dee Vasquez's thugs attack Phoenix and Maya one of the weapons must be a fire extinguisher, a reference to 2-1 where Richard Wellington hitting Phoenix with one made him lose his memory.
• The opening lines of "It's gotta be the Butz" are also quite funny.
  Larry: Well, I was hangin' out with my girlfriend Ruth
  In my mansion with the golden picket fence
  Judge: Uhm excuse me, sir must I remind you now to please tell the truth
  Because perjury's a criminal offense
  • There's also these lines a little further into the song.
  Von Karma: This witness is contributing nothing.
  I suggest he be dismissed
  And, ideally, drawn and quartered
