As glad as I am to see Blueblood experience much deserved consequences, I do fear the fallout that’s awaiting the other Equestrian royalty/aristocracy (that have played a courtroom role in these past and ongoing cases). All these cases seem to have been designed to bring out and emphasize said royalty’s worst traits into the public eye (Blueblood’s ego, Luna’s paranoia/manipulative inclination). With Celestia having been a judge for Overall’s past trial, I dread to imagine what controversial past decision she made that will come back to bite everybody.
You know, the fact that Equity tried to make certain that Rarity was convicted made me think for certain that she was the mastermind setting all these supposed cases to falsely incriminate the Mane 6 and those close to them, possibly to mar Equestria's heroes and maybe even undermine the royals. But then i heard her spiel about remaining neutral and not giving one side or the other an edge, and it makes me wonder if that's just a cop out or delusion on how justice is done, rather than say, i dunno, aiding in finding the truth and properly upholding the law. Of course, i still have my eye on Equity. She might be a Moriarty-like mastermind, feigning Lawful Neutral while being Lawful Evil.
@@thenebulaxyz8849Considering the selection process, the idea of a families dynamic like with merchant families of the past feels possible, and given the powers granted by the position of Lawkeeper, a highly competitive part filled with tragedy
"No. He's the kind of guy who makes you feel bad for trees." Thanks Justice, now I have to explain to my fam why I fell off the couch dying of laughter. XD
Wait, this is the first time I've ever seen Lawkeeper Equity smile, or in shock... or holding back TEARS even? She seems more expressive when it comes to Philo than when she's around others. Even with Private Eye she wasn't like this. I wonder why.
@@vgmaster9The trailer for Elements of Justice shows that the Crystal Empire will be visited at some point. So if I had to guess, Equity may have a mysterious past relationship with Sombra. (Perhaps the ObiWan Kenobi to Sombra’s Anakin)
It’s likely that there’s been a misunderstanding between Rainbow Dash and Stream Line Pinkie was at the academy likely because she’s sneaking in contraband for Rainbow by sneaking in the grape juice, hence why she’s a witness. Besides Pinkie Pie, Fleetfoot and Sky High will likely be two other witnesses that will testify in court too since they’re also victims, getting injured from the tornado. Along with of coarse Stream Line herself. It’s likely Lightning Dust might have something to do with this. It’s likely that say if she were already expelled from the academy, she trespassed onto the campus and attempted to Rainbow Dash as revenge for getting her kicked out of the Wonderbolts reserved. She was doing all she can to sabotage Rainbow Dash and either intentionally or unintentionally framed Stream Line for this. She intended to poison Rainbow but somehow poisoned Stream Line by mistake. Then unintentionally or intentionally framed Rainbow Dash as a last resort. Though, since Stream Lines test for any poison showed negative, it’s likely she didn’t consume any of the laced juice boxes. Maybe the box wasn’t laced with anything poisonous but maybe some sort of medicine that causes people to get drowsy. Maybe Lightning Dust was the one who created the tornado and Stream Line passed out maybe not from creating the tornado but perhaps doing something else strenuous. There’s also a possibility that Stream Line passed out from exhaustion from trying to Lightning Dust. What do you think? Do you think it will be possible before the trial, Pinkie could also be arrested too along with be trialed as well as an accomplice of Rainbow? Like I said before, the most likely reason why Pinkie was there as a witness was because she was helping Rainbow smuggle the grape juice into the academy so I kinda do see Pinkie also getting arrested too
@@topnotchshinobiWhile more so an idea from the ARG, there seems to be an overarching idea of mistrust of the current authority from the first case and somewhat expressed in the second case from the Bonds of Justice episode involving Luna, so while maybe not implicating Shining or Cadence, it could connect to a trusted official of the Crystal Empire(though if the series holds to no traditional culprits like the Ace Attorney games normally do until probably the ending case, it'll be trickier)
Honestly, the new detective Philo Reed is becoming my favorite secondary character in this new case since, despite still being somewhat unexpected in his methods of investigation and deduction, he has a lot of charisma (especially making a good team with Trucy for this) 👍🏽😁
He certainly gives a vibe similar to Herlock Sholms, considering his wordplay and emphasis on deductive reasoning. I hope to see him perform a Dance of Deduction in a later episode.
It would be interesting what would the Dance of Deduction would look like instead of an abridged one. It would be a wonderful duet of Philo Reed and Apollo.
Well, I wasn't expected any posthumous situation of "prince" Blueblood in this episode, although I admit that Fated Pursuit leaving him in his place was very satisfactory at the end. I bet I wasn't the only one who thought the same too XD).👍🏽👍🏽

Okay, so there appears be a lot more to Equity than we initially thought. I found myself intrigued by what was shown in the ending with her speaking to Philo, getting into details that appeared…touchy. This just makes things a lot more interesting and I look forward to delving deeper into this plot line. But as for now, I’m curious as to what we’ll see at the trial. Another great episode, guys! Until next time, see ya!
. I have theories regarding Rainbow Dash and Rarity’s cases. And some possibility of Law Equity’s role. I need everyone’s opinion on these. Predictions: -Rainbow’s case: Stream Line faked her own poisoning -Rarity: Either Espie or Law Equity is the true culprit. Though a higher chance that Espie did it For Rainbows case, think about it. Rainbow Dash is not only well known as one of the element wielders but is also known for her extraordinary flying abilities with her rainbow trail and her sonic rainboom. I mean who wouldn’t want that on the Wonderbolts? Stream Line believes she can’t compete with that. So in order to make the competition easier for herself she either: -faked her own poisoning the whole time. There was no poisoning in the first place. She pretended to be poisoned and framed Rainbow -she actually did poison herself and framed Rainbow for it -she gotten someone else to poison her under her orders to frame Rainbow Though another thing that came to mind. What if Lightning is actually involved in this case? It seems possible. She could either be -An accomplice to Stream Line’s crime -Commiting identity fraud and disguised and going by the name Stream Line. She disguised herself and went by a different name in an attempt to get back in the reserves to claim a spot in the Wonderbolts and get back at Rainbow for getting her kicked out of the academy the first time around To those who argue that Lightning Dust wouldn’t do something that extreme, I believe something like this would be something she could commit. She’d be the type of person to endanger other ponies lives and disregard said lives as long as she’s benefits from the situation. She’ll definitely pull off something extreme for the sake of her own selfish desire to inflate her ego and be top dog, getting a spot in the Wonderbolts. As for Rarity’s case. I have a good feeling that Espie is the true culprit. Or Law Equity. Through leaning towards more Law Equity. Maybe it wasn’t Overall that committed suicide, rather it was Estella who committed suicide. There’s a few possibilities: -Overall cheated on Coco with Estella -Overall cheated on Estella with Coco -Overall and Coco became a couple before Estella could confess her feelings There is a possibility that Overall Concept isn’t as good of a pony has the series makes him out to be And out of defeat and distress, Estella ended her life. Consumed with grief and wanting to avenge her sister, Espie used her sister’s suicide to frame Overall concept for murder. It likely Overall was acquitted thanks to Sonata so Espie decided to go with plan B. She murdered Overall concept with the intention to frame Coco for it. She eventually then went MIA to avoid getting caught and having to stand trial and get sent to prison for the crime she committed. Now I understand that Espie disappeared after her sisters death. She could honestly be anywhere in Equestria. It’s possible that she was at Manehattan on the night of Overalls death. She likely went because she planned to kill Overall Concept and frame Coco for it. Or at least someone else and then slip away without a trace of presence still hiding away in the shadows where no pony could find her, continuing to be on the run from the authorities. Not sure how Rarity fits in this equation though However I do have another motive that could be possible for how Estella possibility took her own life and now Espie had to possibly kill Overall Concept. From case 1, Coco said that Overall Concept won a fashion contest. This video stated how Estella and Overall worked together at the same company. Even if Trixie claimed they weren’t exactly rivals, I beg to differ. I have a feeling Estella entered the same contes as Overall and obviously she lost. Either she lost fairly to him or was betrayed by him through him possibly cheating. That could be the possible reason of the twins’ and Overalls falling out. Distraught by the loss and the possible betrayal, Estella took her own life as if there was no hope left of recovering after this. Then to avenge her sister, Espie framed Overall to fool everyone that he killed Estella when really Estella killer herself. Sonata more than likely gotten Overall the Not Guilty verdict so Espie had to move onto a plan B. She decided to travel to Manehattan when she heard there was a play going on, she took advantage of that opportunity to strike. She killed Overall concept which caused Coco and Rarity to be accused of Estella’s crimes. Estella managed to slip away still hiding in the shadows and as of right now, still on the run from the law As for Law Equity. I might have this feeling she could be guilty of a crime. With how similar she looks to the twins in mane color, I have a feeling she’s related to them. Maybe Espie is an accomplice to Equity’s crime if Equity were to be guilty of killing Overall concept. Though if Law Equity isn’t the curprit for case 3. I have a feeling she’ll definitely be for either case 4 or 5. Wait a minute, what if Espie is a defendant for either case 4 or case 5? I have a feeling that Law Equity would be a culprit of a heinous crime and that either Twilight or Espie is framed for it: I have a feeling both of them will be framed for Law Equity’s crimes: if Espie were to be related to Law Equity as a blood relative or family or something, or adopted by her, it could be a reference to Turnabout Goodbyes where Miles own mentor/adopted father killed his true and biological father. I predict Espie and Twilight will be the last two defendants for cases 4 and 5. Law Equity is clearly playing mind games and is manipulating the mane 6. Like from the end of case 2; it’s pretty obvious she’s gaslighting the mane 6. She probably organized and orchestrated most of these cases with the intentions to completely tear apart the elements of harmony through the use of bringing discord amongst them. I have a feeling that Law Equity could be a changing who’s working under Queen Chrysalis. Or better yet, Law Equity is Queen Chrysalis. She’s weakening the mane 6s harmony by creating chaos amongst them. Anyways, what’s everyone’s thoughts on this?
Yeah, it’s quite the interesting blend! On another note, I’m curious about how many how many other Equestrian High Council members will be explored in the span of the remaining cases? We’ve already seen law enforcement (Lawkeeper Equity, Detective Philo Reed) and education (Fated Pursuit), so what about other areas like healthcare, agriculture, economy/trade, public works, arts/culture, sports/recreation, and social services?
Well, seeing other side of the Lawkeeper was...interesting. And Philo Reed actually managed to impress me. Unlike Private Eye he actually can make her flinch.As for both cases - I am intrigued. But who would be prosecutiors in both of them now when Prince Douchebag is dismissed?
"But how would be prosecutiors in both of them now when Prince Douchebag is dismissed?" My suspicion is that Luna will prosecute one of the cases while Trixie will prosecute the other. We did see both of their silhouettes in the trailer for Case 3, after all.
@@stephenwells6434I look forward to seeing more of Trixie as a rival prosecutor! She’s like the perfect blend of Klavier’s over-the-top showmanship and Franziska’s ego/snobbiness, and I think she still has a score to settle with both Phoenix and Sonata in the courtroom. (Unless the writing team plans to subvert our expectations by having Trixie start fresh with a new rival in the form of Apollo)
@@topnotchshinobi They could go either way with her. At this point in the canon, Trixie has started making an effort to become a better pony. However, she also still REALLY resents Twilight, and she doesn't fully overcome her desire to get back at her until she meets Starlight Glimmer.

I have a theory on what caused Stream Lines Collapse, it's a bit basic but I'd say they had an allergic reaction to the juice. Maybe they had changed ingredients between Shipments or something of the like?
I wonder if the shipment that Rainbow have is sent by Pinkie Pie. Think about it, Rainbow say that Pinkie was at the Academy on the day of the accident. Plus, the amount of juice box show that it just recently open. And with how Phoenix say the lock appear when she say "just a case of me being in the wrong place at the wrong time" it make wonder, what else that she ask Pinkie to sent that maybe a contraband to the Academy....
@@syabilaazri7834 I forgot Pinkie Pie was at the academy. Maybe they were responsible for the poisoning. but for some reason im not too sure about that

@@karlhnedkovsky5214 Don't overthink it now. When it gets down to it, there's more to the story than the plot twist we are hit with. The question is, will the protagonist look beyond to more than just the truth when the need arises? We need to keep Rarity's character in mind considering she's more passionate in her craft, that her friends know that she's a genuine person. Equity has her issues that makes her job not so 100% clear, so we can't take everything at face value. Rarity started this thing calling on Phoenix for help with Coco. I know her personality enough that she does her thing legit. So that really makes that apparent that we all need to learn to look beyond things at face value.
@@karlhnedkovsky5214Maybe as a mix of both, she could be let go of the charges, but given the connection to the fashion/theater business, it still leaves her with suspicion around whatever force is behind this whole series
Stop the presses. Philo wins the award for Best Character for Case 3. Starting from the Great Ace Attorney Herlock Sholmes reference, to his voice actor, dialogue and (GASP) HIM BEING MORE OF A MENTOR TO APOLLO THAN PHOENIX WAS TO HIM IN CANON BY GOD. The writers behind this are freaking GENIUSES. They actually gave Apollo some EMOTIONAL SUPPORT IN THE FORM OF AN OC I’m all in for Apollo actually having a friend & having his PTSD towards Clay addressed. Super invested in future episodes just based on that and Philo. Philo himself proves this entire production is SSS tier. And is it odd to want to ship Sonata and Phoenix? They have such strong chemistry.
Philo Reed isn't an OC. Well, not to this series at least. He was created for My Little Investigations, a game which has been a major inspiration for the Elements of Justice team. Also, since you complemented his voice actor, I feel obligated to point out that he was the same actor who voiced Ace Swift in Turnabout Storm. You are far from the only one to ship Phoenix and Sonata. People have been shipping them since the original, especially since Sonata has such a strong resemblance to Mia Fey, who many fans also ship with Phoenix.
A lot of this is true! Though the direction we're taking Philo has been reworked for EoJ. As such, he's not a pure 1:1 copy. Particularly in one area of his character, which we highlighted a bit in the episode 😉 Even more fun facts: Canadian is reprising his role as Philo, so we've kept the same voice, which I am so grateful for!
Ace Swift? I watched Turnabout Storm like twice and the difference between the two characters is astronomical! Definitely not saying Ace Swift was a bad character but there’s so much heart & passion in Philo’s performance it’s intense 🤯 thanks for letting me know that! As for Sonata & Phoenix glad I’m not alone. They really do click with each other.
@@AceAttorneyElementsofJusticeKeep up the good work as usual! And on another note, will Phoenix’s unresolved feelings over his past sketchy actions as “Hobo Nick” continue to be a plot point in future episodes, or have you exhausted everything you wanted to say about the topic?
Boy these episodes just keep getting more and more intriguing, The more the characters investigate more intense the story gets! I can't wait for the next episode!!!! And as always everyone did an excellent and fantastic job bringing this one to life, Simply marvleous work guys!!!

1:05:43 She find it as likely as a dragon performing slam poetry in a coffee shop? Apparently she hadn't met Garble And what we would discover about him in season 9, long after this crossover placement
And here we are at Part 2, and with a name like Skeletons in the Closet, we can already be prepared to potentially unearth some dark or unexpected secrets. Spoilers below, as usual, so be warned, lol Apollo's side: Unless I missed something, it's still not made entirely clear what sort of place Keresmatic's Mare Attic is supposed to be, but whatever it is, both Apollo and Applejack know it's not a place for kids, so it'll be just Polly and Trucy taking a look around. What we DO discover is a few new faces, including Fated Pursuit, an Equestrian High Council member who used to be a teacher and headmistress, and who seems to have a high regard for both the education system in Equestria and its government, and won't consider the idea of imperfection in either. That scene between her and our old friend Prince Blueblood was a nice bit of continuity, too, showing his behavior in court did have consequences. And yet, we still don't know who the prosecutor of this case will be. We also get to properly meet Philo Reed, the lead detective. He certainly gives off an air of Herlock Sholmes of Great Ace Attorney fame: charismatic, eccentric, yet ultimately competent and deserving of his title as an investigator. That said, searching Overall's room doesn't seem to have turned up anything apart from an empty (potentially unused) phial and a photo of the Pantomimia sisters. His speech to Apollo about showing due respect for what the dead have left behind really hits hard, especially if you've played Dual Destinies...That scene with Coco was also very sweet, with Apollo not wanting to dash her hopes with news of little progress, although we're given something else to ponder: why wouldn't Overall have brought up Estella and Espie to Coco? Since Apollo's bracelet didn't react, we know Coco wasn't lying about not knowing. Something isn't right here, but right now, all Apollo and Trucy can do is wait to get in touch with Philo's contact, who will hopefully clear things up. Sonata and Phoenix's side: It's sweet hearing Phoenix and Sonata being able to converse and banter on friendly terms like this, like Sonata dealing with Phoenix's wonderment at walking on clouds. I know I'd be scared out of my mind being up so high, not knowing how long the cloudwalking spell lasts. And at least we're given some confirmation about what Athena and Twilight are doing: helping Sugar Stamp, Private Eye, and Fair Devotion after what happened in the last trial. I just hope they're able to work in good spirits with each other. They were a trustworthy duo at the defense's bench, but after the revelations after the trial, who knows what's going through their minds right now?... I should've figured Spitfire would be the one we'd be seeing to get more information. She's clearly trying to keep an impersonal air about the whole affair, but she's clearly smarting about the idea of her team members harming each other, and I think I know a good example of what she's thinking of...Good on Sonata for managing to get Spitfire's trust in allowing them to look around, though, reminding her of what's at stake: the life and liberty of one of her cadets. I don't think Dash would like the comparison between her and Sonata either, but regardless, Sonata's frankness has given Spitfire what she needs to trust her and Phoenix with taking a look around. With Sonata using Logic Chess last part, and now the 'Investigation' style of the Investigations games, Sonata really has become the new Miles Edgeworth, hasn't she? And so Stream Line's locker was left unlocked, with a couple of boxes of grape juice with different shipping numbers. So she and Rainbow are the only ones who drink grape juice at the Academy. But Stream Line had a juice box from the shipment Rainbow ordered from in her own locker? I can't help but feel like that'll be relevant to her supposed poisoning...And that tear in the bed beside Rainbow's in the barracks. If it's a common place to hide contraband, what could've been hidden in that bed? If what Phoenix is thinking is true, if he saw Psyche Locks around Rainbow when she brought up her arrest, what could it mean?... So Stream Line was muttering something before she lost consciousness, but the results of a tox examination came back negative? So that means she may not have been poisoned after all, but Rainbow's sure they suspect her of it? Something's seriously not right here... And now a tornado's made a mess of the landing strip on the same day as the incident, one that Spitfire thinks was a prank gone too far, and one that hurt not just a fellow Bolt, but a member of a tour group. It's pretty clear who Spitfire's talking about when it comes to hotshot recruits pulling off ego-stroking showboating stunts that put others in danger, but surely, surely _that_ pony can't be involved, can they? Either way, you can see how Rainbow Dash's words during her own days as a cadet have stuck with Spitfire: there's a difference between pushing yourself and just being reckless, and recklessness should NOT be rewarded. And she wanted Sonata and Phoenix to investigate the connection between the two events because she saw what happened when Private Eye went outside the boundaries of the law to do what he thought was right, and how it affected public perception of the police. She doesn't want the same happening to her team. She's not the captain for nothing. And now for something completely different, but perhaps not wholly unexpected, it looks like Philo's contact is none other than Lawkeeper Equity. It's surprising to find her in a more agreeable mood, after the cold and dismissive way we've seen her act so far, but it seems she holds Philo in good regard. This mutual associate they bring up, I think we can all guess who that is, especially with the mention of Turning Page, which really seems to have struck a chord with Equity. Trucy getting a chance to stand as co-counsel may take a bit more time, but that last favor...What's in that file? It sounds like it could be what Apollo needs to bolster his defense, but Equity's reluctant to grant more advantages than she feels is necessary. But being reminded of this mentor of hers...That's really seemed to break down her coldness, and made her more willing to grant, not an advantage, but an even dealing, so that justice can truly be sought. Of course, things are more complicated by Philo needing to be present for Rainbow's case, but now I'm curious about this mentor of Equity's, the former Lawkeeper, who seems to have had a reputation that was publicly unfavorable, and yet Equity held him in high esteem... Looking forward to what comes next, as always! =)
It was exciting to see a familiar face like Spitfire being a key witness in Rainbow's case. In addition to presenting interesting (and fun) moments with Phoenix in this episode, we have also been reminded of those moments that he usually shares with Dash both in the series and his contributions there. 👍🏽👍🏽
I like what you’ve done with Spitfire here. Shown her to be more competent than the show and that final scene between Philo and Equity, very interesting. Looking forward to the first trail. Keep going strong people, you’re all doing excellent work right now
OMG I lost it when Philo started doing Sholmes' thing. Beautiful. Love all the mechanics and references from other games youre bringing into this so far. Keep up the good work guys!😊
Gotta say I love Fated's design! Though, I wonder what exactly Apollo saw in the window that seemed inappropriate for children. Also, Philo has some insane IQ.
Given his reaction, as well as how Playwright had spoken about it in the previous episode, I imagine that it is a place for certain "adult" activities.
@@stephenwells6434 That’s my initial thought previously, but neither Apollo nor Trucy mention anything like that while in the lobby, which is the room he peeked in.
So we have two cases going on simultaneously? In Manehatten we have Apollo Justice investigating the Overall case with Rarity as the main suspect and at Wonderbolt Academy we have Sonata and Pheonix Wright solving the Streamline case with Rainbowdash as the main suspect?
Due to some technical difficulties with TH-cam, the time codes below are now 5 minutes ahead of described scenes. 38:51 The Wonderbolt Captain who scared Scootaloo with the “full body cast drinking through a straw!” 48:15 Hey! Don’t go dissing on grape-flavors, Spitfire. Knuckles the Echidna wouldn’t like that… 51:25 HEY! Rainbow Dash has stolen Smarty-Pants!
If you set those time codes during the live broadcast, then the explanation is quite simple. The live broadcast had a five-minute countdown before the episode proper commenced. That countdown has since been removed, hence why all of your codes are now five minutes off.
Seeing Equity actually show emotions that weren't pure stoicness sure surprised me, also seeing Cruise Control from Turnabout Storm in the credits was interesting... Who is that mare that was with him? I don't think I've seen her before. Is Cruise going to show up in this series as well? I am really excited to see where this all goes next.
And the mystery has gotten bigger. What could be Overall Concept’s history with the missing sisters? Who could’ve poisoned Stream Line? Who made the tornado tear up the Wonderbolt Academy? And who is Equity’s former mentor? This: 1:10:16 “Lawkeeper A?”
It’s likely that there’s been a misunderstanding between Rainbow Dash and Stream Line Pinkie was at the academy likely because she’s sneaking in contraband for Rainbow by sneaking in the grape juice, hence why she’s a witness. Besides Pinkie Pie, Fleetfoot and Sky High will likely be two other witnesses that will testify in court too since they’re also victims, getting injured from the tornado. Along with of coarse Stream Line herself. It’s likely Lightning Dust might have something to do with this. It’s likely that say if she were already expelled from the academy, she trespassed onto the campus and attempted to Rainbow Dash as revenge for getting her kicked out of the Wonderbolts reserved. She was doing all she can to sabotage Rainbow Dash and either intentionally or unintentionally framed Stream Line for this. She intended to poison Rainbow but somehow poisoned Stream Line by mistake. Then unintentionally or intentionally framed Rainbow Dash as a last resort. Though, since Stream Lines test for any poison showed negative, it’s likely she didn’t consume any of the laced juice boxes. Maybe the box wasn’t laced with anything poisonous but maybe some sort of medicine that causes people to get drowsy. Maybe Lightning Dust was the one who created the tornado and Stream Line passed out maybe not from creating the tornado but perhaps doing something else strenuous. There’s also a possibility that Stream Line passed out from exhaustion from trying to Lightning Dust. What do you think?
Oh, MAN, this was a good entry! Philo was pleasantly brilliant and excentric! He's a dead-ringer for Herlock Sholmes! We have two intense cases building up. One in Manehatten and one in Cloudsdale. Where will they lead, what connections do they have, and WHAT will result from the secrets they hold? A phial left in a pillow. A tear in a mattress. An unscheduled tornado. And a beloved memento, wrapped in a white ribbon. . . . Oh, and one last thing. I'm not gonna lie: when I heard that Spike and Sweetie Belle, being kids, weren't allowed to go inter K.M.A., I honestly thought it was one of the THOSE places.
Wow, you guys are on fire lately! I truly didn't expect this new chapter would come out sooner, but that could only mean that your team is getting bigger and stronger and I'm really happy for you guys! I'm starting to love this case, especially after Sonata showed her particular set of skills! Philo Reed really seems like a good guy who's willing to help Apollo to find the truth. And wow it really seems there's something big going on with Equestria's justice system, and it probably had to do what happened to Lawkeeper's mentor. Anyhow, I really love this! I hope you guys are still on fire and bring more content! But of course, take the time you need!
I love when Apollo acts like Trucy's big brother. Honestly almost wish Applejack went with him instead of Trucy, given how she seems to relax his more negative emotions, where Trucy stresses him out a lot more trying to act like said big brother.
This is a two-hit combo of a case. Rainbow Dash (again) is on trial for attempted merking of another pony and Rarity getting caught up in a past case that she wasn't involved in. Super crazy.
Are we sure Rarity isn’t involved in anyway? I’m sure she isn’t guilty but there must surely be some way she’s connected to it. If only we could see that supposed letter from Rarity that seems to incriminate her.
Man, I am SO intrigued by this- You've got a great project here, and I'm really excited to see where it goes! But, while I and many others are glad to see new episodes come out, please don't overwork yourselves for our sakes. We're willing to wait if it means more content of this quality.
Dang, I thought for sure there would be a twist where it turned out Stella and her sister were actually the same pony, but I guess not, unless Equestria has Photoshop.
Oh my gosh, I thought we’d be waiting a couple more months for the next part! Hope this time finally starts the Apollo case proper and actually gets Rarity’s incrimination case started!
. I have theories regarding Rainbow Dash and Rarity’s cases. And some possibility of Law Equity’s role. I need everyone’s opinion on these. Predictions: -Rainbow’s case: Stream Line faked her own poisoning -Rarity: Either Espie or Law Equity is the true culprit. Though a higher chance that Espie did it For Rainbows case, think about it. Rainbow Dash is not only well known as one of the element wielders but is also known for her extraordinary flying abilities with her rainbow trail and her sonic rainboom. I mean who wouldn’t want that on the Wonderbolts? Stream Line believes she can’t compete with that. So in order to make the competition easier for herself she either: -faked her own poisoning the whole time. There was no poisoning in the first place. She pretended to be poisoned and framed Rainbow -she actually did poison herself and framed Rainbow for it -she gotten someone else to poison her under her orders to frame Rainbow Though another thing that came to mind. What if Lightning is actually involved in this case? It seems possible. She could either be -An accomplice to Stream Line’s crime -Commiting identity fraud and disguised and going by the name Stream Line. She disguised herself and went by a different name in an attempt to get back in the reserves to claim a spot in the Wonderbolts and get back at Rainbow for getting her kicked out of the academy the first time around To those who argue that Lightning Dust wouldn’t do something that extreme, I believe something like this would be something she could commit. She’d be the type of person to endanger other ponies lives and disregard said lives as long as she’s benefits from the situation. She’ll definitely pull off something extreme for the sake of her own selfish desire to inflate her ego and be top dog, getting a spot in the Wonderbolts. As for Rarity’s case. I have a good feeling that Espie is the true culprit. Or Law Equity. Through leaning towards more Law Equity. Maybe it wasn’t Overall that committed suicide, rather it was Estella who committed suicide. There’s a few possibilities: -Overall cheated on Coco with Estella -Overall cheated on Estella with Coco -Overall and Coco became a couple before Estella could confess her feelings There is a possibility that Overall Concept isn’t as good of a pony has the series makes him out to be And out of defeat and distress, Estella ended her life. Consumed with grief and wanting to avenge her sister, Espie used her sister’s suicide to frame Overall concept for murder. It likely Overall was acquitted thanks to Sonata so Espie decided to go with plan B. She murdered Overall concept with the intention to frame Coco for it. She eventually then went MIA to avoid getting caught and having to stand trial and get sent to prison for the crime she committed. Now I understand that Espie disappeared after her sisters death. She could honestly be anywhere in Equestria. It’s possible that she was at Manehattan on the night of Overalls death. She likely went because she planned to kill Overall Concept and frame Coco for it. Or at least someone else and then slip away without a trace of presence still hiding away in the shadows where no pony could find her, continuing to be on the run from the authorities. Not sure how Rarity fits in this equation though However I do have another motive that could be possible for how Estella possibility took her own life and now Espie had to possibly kill Overall Concept. From case 1, Coco said that Overall Concept won a fashion contest. This video stated how Estella and Overall worked together at the same company. Even if Trixie claimed they weren’t exactly rivals, I beg to differ. I have a feeling Estella entered the same contes as Overall and obviously she lost. Either she lost fairly to him or was betrayed by him through him possibly cheating. That could be the possible reason of the twins’ and Overalls falling out. Distraught by the loss and the possible betrayal, Estella took her own life as if there was no hope left of recovering after this. Then to avenge her sister, Espie framed Overall to fool everyone that he killed Estella when really Estella killer herself. Sonata more than likely gotten Overall the Not Guilty verdict so Espie had to move onto a plan B. She decided to travel to Manehattan when she heard there was a play going on, she took advantage of that opportunity to strike. She killed Overall concept which caused Coco and Rarity to be accused of Estella’s crimes. Estella managed to slip away still hiding in the shadows and as of right now, still on the run from the law As for Law Equity. I might have this feeling she could be guilty of a crime. With how similar she looks to the twins in mane color, I have a feeling she’s related to them. Maybe Espie is an accomplice to Equity’s crime if Equity were to be guilty of killing Overall concept. Though if Law Equity isn’t the curprit for case 3. I have a feeling she’ll definitely be for either case 4 or 5. Wait a minute, what if Espie is a defendant for either case 4 or case 5? I have a feeling that Law Equity would be a culprit of a heinous crime and that either Twilight or Espie is framed for it: I have a feeling both of them will be framed for Law Equity’s crimes: if Espie were to be related to Law Equity as a blood relative or family or something, or adopted by her, it could be a reference to Turnabout Goodbyes where Miles own mentor/adopted father killed his true and biological father. I predict Espie and Twilight will be the last two defendants for cases 4 and 5. Law Equity is clearly playing mind games and is manipulating the mane 6. Like from the end of case 2; it’s pretty obvious she’s gaslighting the mane 6. She probably organized and orchestrated most of these cases with the intentions to completely tear apart the elements of harmony through the use of bringing discord amongst them. I have a feeling that Law Equity could be a changing who’s working under Queen Chrysalis. Or better yet, Law Equity is Queen Chrysalis. She’s weakening the mane 6s harmony by creating chaos amongst them. Anyways, what’s everyone’s thoughts on this?
So.... to sum up all of the information from this episode. - The Headmistress of the High Council may or may not be hiding details on purpose for Apollo's case to try and make sure Rarity being framed for Overall's death goes off without a hitch. - Coco didn't know the Pantomimia Twins were related to Overall despite hooking it up with him, probably has something to do with that case Sonata did with Trixie in the flashback sequence at the beginning of the last part. - Stream Line and Rainbow drink Grape Juice, however one of those boxes is from the latter's box of Grape Juice, which is strange given that she only started drinking it, whilst the former drank it for longer. - The bed next to Rainbow's has an intentional tear through it to likely hide whatever caused Stream Line to collapse. Stream Line also suffered from light-headedness going into vomiting, anxiety, extreme perspiration, a dangerously high heart rate, and also hallucinations, and repetitive speech. Whatever caused Stream Line to collapse was not poison, since the tox report came back negative, so WHAT IS Rainbow in prison for if not a suspect of poisoning her? - So.... somebody ran a Tornado through the landing strip of Wonderbolt Academy, during a Tour.... on the same day Stream Line collapsed, and NO obstacle courses were schedule during Tour hours? Now we know the names of those injured by said Tornado, Fleetfoot and Sky High (Poor Kid). Glad Spitfire agrees that this is WAAAYY too suspicious to be a simple coincidence. - Ok then, seems Philo (the one who got Rarity arrested) seems to be asking favors from Equity. One of which has to do with with Turning Page... which means the letter came from Private Eye (Poor dude truly ashamed of his actions in regards to the last trial). Second is asking Trucy to be Apollo's co-council, which as a request... can't exactly happen properly. Since Twilight didn't give the request to hand her a badge, and she's also a child. But it seems she's allowing it if Trucy signs off on it. - Apparently Philo has an extraordinary request he asks of Equity, even by his standards apparently. This favor having to do with records that would even the playing field in Apollo's trial. So it would seem that Rarity being prosecuted for Overall's death was something that was planned to happen. Philo not being able to send this their way... until after the Trial in Cloudsdale has been resolved. It also seems that Equity is quite hardened about a topic relating to her mentor, who seems to be someone that most people frown upon, and someone she remembers fondly, as seen by this wooden stamp in her drawer with white wrapping around the handle. Seems like so many things happened in this episode for the Lawkeeper, and the two Defense Parties. Wonder how this will turn out in the next episode?
It’s likely that there’s been a misunderstanding between Rainbow Dash and Stream Line Pinkie was at the academy likely because she’s sneaking in contraband for Rainbow by sneaking in the grape juice, hence why she’s a witness. Besides Pinkie Pie, Fleetfoot and Sky High will likely be two other witnesses that will testify in court too since they’re also victims, getting injured from the tornado.

Maybe Lightning Dust was the one who created the tornado and Stream Line passed out maybe not from creating the tornado but perhaps doing something else strenuous. There’s also a possibility that Stream Line passed out from exhaustion from trying to Lightning Dust. What do you think? Do you think it will be possible before the trial, Pinkie could also be arrested too along with be trialed as well as an accomplice of Rainbow? Like I said before, the most likely reason why Pinkie was there as a witness was because she was helping Rainbow smuggle the grape juice into the academy so I kinda do see Pinkie also getting arrested too
Y'all are really keeping up to your word about consistently releasing episodes on a monthly basis! Great to see your new game plan and methods are coming to fruition just as you wanted them to be. *SPOILERS BELOW NATURALLY* Really enjoying the fact you guys are cutting down upon wordy dialogue, allowing for more emotional moments to settle speaking for itself, like reinforcing what immense grief Apollo had been put through in Dual Destinies events after Philo calls him out on matters of what is irrelevant to a case or not. While it doesn't obviously hurt to have characters converse about emotional beats, sometimes less can be more in other scenarios, too. It's a pretty tricky act to follow, but I'd say you all are doing well in it building upon the narrative about loss and irreplaceable history someone leaves behind after their untimely demise. On that note, what has immediately caught my attention would have to be the more vulnerable glimpse into Equity's background. The way Equity strongly reacted to Philo mentioning the circumstances surrounding Turning Page, what became of his father, and especially merely mentioning that previous Lawkeeper lead me to believe her father was in charge at one point before some kind of tragedy struck. If not her biological father, then somebody coming into her life as a figurative father figure to inspire Equity. It would certainly explain Equity's behavior around Apple Bloom previously about not wanting to discuss familial ties, given if the previous Lawkeeper mentor were someone related, then it says a lot about her outlook on everything in general. Equity is very bitter and hurt about whatever became of the previous Lawkeeper, regardless if it turns out to be the biological father, or a dear friend becoming found family for her. Easily was the most heavy emotional part, no question. Consider me very intrigued. As for Phoenix & Sonata, it's simply a great time seeing such cheeky chemistry from their differing perspectives as defense attorneys. It's only natural to have them together after everything that's occurred from Turnabout Storm in poetic storytelling fashion. Once again, utilizing elements from Ace Attorney Investigations in adding a different flare to keep things entertaining, even in the beginning phase. One of my favorite parts had to be Sonata intentionally baiting Spitfire into getting a reaction about the Wonderbolts standing idly by seeing one of their own put on the chopping block, only to be praised for being as compassionate akin to Rainbow Dash. You can seriously tell right off the bat how better the pacing is. The whole Wonderbolts segment went by so quickly setting up every needed piece of evidence and stakes with zero fat in the way. With the first two parts already being this well crafted and paced nicely juggling three story perspectives, it makes me highly excited for when we get to the trials of both Rarity & Rainbow's cases respectively. Everyone is continuing to outdo themselves here. Keep up the fucking excellent work!
When it come to pieces of logic in Ace Attorney, I would go Hmmm... Whenever a new piece of logic is added. Whenever I put two pieces of logic together I would act like I'm trying to think hard. if it works. I shout "that's it!" But if it doesn't connect, I'll act like I got a headache
Wow a new episode already, I’m shocked! I’m really glad we got this one in so quickly, the first one of this season felt a little dry compared to the others. I’m super excited to see what happens next! I’m really glad I get to follow along in a lovely series like this, good job team!
40:25 Can we talk about how incredibly well this series plays out just like an Ace Attorney game? The mention of looking at things from all angles, of thinking in 3D, I can SEE the tutorial light up of the arrows to look around the crime scene. Same thing with the discussion on piecing things together like a puzzle, I can see the logic puzzle introduction starting like in Investigations. I LOVE the attention to detail.
Well I glad of new characters be showing on this case and it investigation be interesting of the case in different locations before the court event. Least each characters be grown and evolved to this case as find real answers to the case. This video is amazing, dramatic, motivated and interesting. Plus, animated be cool on the video.
Finally, I like we are checking various separate cases in this episode in general could show us with details that complement each other and give us a surprise together (both obtained from the case of Rainbow, again, and that of Rarity in different places). I'm sure it would be interesting in the end, although I think it would be better if Equity's appearances were explained behind everything (since I think it's more personal than just his work as a lawkeeper). 🤔
Bravo on your 2nd episode in this legal battle! Perhaps it says something about my tastes - but I rather like that lobby in the "Mare Attic", especially that statuary. I would love to see that lobby rendered in nicer detail...or perhaps a pointer to where an image of what we saw could be downloaded? Judging from the previous episode ("Hindsight & Foresight"), I suspect that we're not going to be treated to just 2 trials continuing on - but rather 3. We'll get more flashbacks from Sonata's involvement as Overall Concept's Defense Attorney in his trial in the case of Estelle Pantomimia, which will reveal information crucial to Rarity's trial...and as a result, Sonata will be called upon to be a witness. ...And since that "confidential" finding (or record, or investigative notes) is going to be delivered to Apollo, Philo - who is being dispatched immediately to Cloudsdale as a witness - may take the opportunity to quiz Sonata about it. Since it IS "confidential", that means it wasn't entered in the public record of the previous trial, meaning it wasn't presented as evidence (heck - Trixie might never have seen it, either - and Trixie proved int he TS trial that she is no slouch as a prosecutor)....but is Sonata already aware of it? A meeting during the just-concluded trial, seen at the end of one episode between Sonata and Lord Equity, mentioned "secrets which couldn't remain hidden much longer". Could this "confidential" file be it?
Evidence list: 21:00 photograph of Stella and espie The photograph depicts two earth pony mares, one of whom worked at Bridleway Theatre. Both are said to have been friends with overall concept. 22:47 Empty Glass Vial A glass vial found in overalls room at keresmatics mare attic. It contains nothing and may not have ever been used. Case B: Streamlines juice boxes Two juice boxes found in the same locker. They have different shipment numbers. 45:26 Juice Boxes in rainbows locker A carton of juice boxes found in rainbows locker. The shipment numbers match another carton found in the victims locker. 59:07 Tornado report Tornado report outlining a tornado that swept through the academy the same day that stream line collapsed. Two ponies were injured: fleetfoot and a filly named sky high.
It’s likely that there’s been a misunderstanding between Rainbow Dash and Stream Line Pinkie was at the academy likely because she’s sneaking in contraband for Rainbow by sneaking in the grape juice, hence why she’s a witness.

Despite of being late, I was really excited too check this new episode of this new case from this awesome series.. surely the hard work for all the crew was really worth it at the end. 👍🏽👍🏽
I am quite new to watching this series and I have (of course) subscribed. I’ve watched every single episode in order. I have to say, you guys have did phenomenal!
Interesting, it seems like there are two cases going on at the same time. First Logic Chess, now Logic... Sonata really is being Edgeworth here. Also, gotta love Philo's dramatics and ability to pierce people or I guess, ponies with words.
DID APOLLO AND TRUCY VISIT A (W)HORSE HOUSE!?? HAHAH CAUSE THAT WOULD BE AWESOME AND FUNNY AS HELL!! oh man! nice touch there doing Sonata's half like the "ME Investigations" game (although not exactly my favorite of the franchise) also, FUCKING HERLOCK SHOLMES!! havent played AA chronicles yet but still REALLY wish we werent covering two trials simultaneously. feel like the energy is unnecessarily split, BUT i wont dwell on that and just enjoy!! hoping the next is +2hrs!! loving this!!
@@kmmk5022 I don't want to jump to any conclusions, but if Espi is anything like darklaw, then it's possible she had something to do with it. Then again, both she AND Estella disappeared for months and they still haven't been heard from. Then again, they could always go the route of the second ace attorney game and have Espi take Estella's identity as her own. You know, like that nurse. Of course, I really don't see how she could have done it in what was such a small time frame for Overall's death. Like, where would she have come from and how did she disappear while there were two mares there?

@@kmmk5022 God damn this is long and it clearly has a lot of thought into it. But, you do know that we haven't been given anything that states Estella has died, right? Only disappeared along with her sister.
Something tells me that Equity is either the missing sister of Estella, or is Estella herself... regardless, this has been a very engrossing and intriguing series! This definitely does the Ace Attorney series and the Fourth Generation of My Little Pony justice!
@kmmk5022 Well, given that the details of how Estella died weren't exactly made very clear, it seems a little reasonable to assume that Estella's death may not by all it's cracked up to be.
Not surprising the Wonderbolts would so easily accuse Rainbow Dash of something awful. First, they accuse her of writing a false note to Spitfire, now this. For all that talk about trust, they don't seem to really trust her at all. Dash should just leave the Wonderbolts, she's too good for them.
Technically, Elements of Justice takes place before that episode. It's set in the immediate aftermath of Season 4, while the episode you are referring to was a Season 5 episode. For what it's worth, It's not the Wonderbolts accusing her this time. It's the police. Once Sonata got her to open up, it was pretty clear that Spitfire doesn't actually believe that Rainbow Dash committed the crime.
It’s likely that there’s been a misunderstanding between Rainbow Dash and Stream Line Pinkie was at the academy likely because she’s sneaking in contraband for Rainbow by sneaking in the grape juice, hence why she’s a witness. Besides Pinkie Pie, Fleetfoot and Sky High will likely be two other witnesses that will testify in court too since they’re also victims, getting injured from the tornado. Along with of coarse Stream Line herself. It’s likely Lightning Dust might have something to do with this. It’s likely that say if she were already expelled from the academy, she trespassed onto the campus and attempted to Rainbow Dash as revenge for getting her kicked out of the Wonderbolts reserved. She was doing all she can to sabotage Rainbow Dash and either intentionally or unintentionally framed Stream Line for this. She intended to poison Rainbow but somehow poisoned Stream Line by mistake. Then unintentionally or intentionally framed Rainbow Dash as a last resort. Though, since Stream Lines test for any poison showed negative, it’s likely she didn’t consume any of the laced juice boxes. Maybe the box wasn’t laced with anything poisonous but maybe some sort of medicine that causes people to get drowsy. Maybe Lightning Dust was the one who created the tornado and Stream Line passed out maybe not from creating the tornado but perhaps doing something else strenuous. There’s also a possibility that Stream Line passed out from exhaustion from trying to Lightning Dust. What do you think? Do you think it will be possible before the trial, Pinkie could also be arrested too along with be trialed as well as an accomplice of Rainbow? Like I said before, the most likely reason why Pinkie was there as a witness was because she was helping Rainbow smuggle the grape juice into the academy so I kinda do see Pinkie also getting arrested too
@@Hewylewis Oh, to be sure. The Wonderbolts show zero loyalty to their members. They completely abandoned Soarin when he was injured qualifying for the Equestria Games, and didn't even visit him in the hospital until Rainbow Dash called them out. And of course, as you referenced, they suspected Rainbow Dash of conspiring against Spitfire despite how incredibly out-of-character that would be for her. In fact, taking the Ace Attorney crossovers into account paints the Wonderbolts in an even worse light. After all, in this continuity the incident involving Wind Rider will be the third time Rainbow Dash is framed for a crime she didn't commit, and the second time she is falsely accused of sabotaging a fellow Wonderbolt. One would think, given the history of false accusations against her, that the Wonderbolts would be willing to give Rainbow the benefit of the doubt. So, I certainly agree with you that Rainbow's idol-worship of the Wonderbolts is misplaced. However, saying that they should have known better than to accuse Rainbow because of "Rarity Investigates" is unfair, since that episode hasn't happened yet at this point in the timeline. And of course, since Elements of Justice is non-canon, using this to judge the Wonderbolts' conduct in the show is also unfair.
Just when you think the information is thin on the ground, we get something big right at the end. Now, who might this Lawkeeper A be? Also, I don't see how there is any concrete evidence to suggest Rainbow poisoned anyone. The toxicology report was negative, so how can they prove poison was involved at all?
This part of the story was great guys! Can't wait for the next segment of the story! I hope Mr. Wright and Sonata find more clues to Rainbow Dash as well Apollo and Trucy to help Rarity. This story definitely has me on my toes. I hope it doesn't take too long for the next story. All of you keep up the great work you all do.👍 Later bye.
After watching the episode and credits again, I've been thinking: What if Sky High is Cruise Control's little sister? If so, man, poor kid. Imagine finally waking up from a coma, only to end up being injured from a possible "prank". 😭

I do enjoy when Fated Pursuit gave Blueblood a good scolding after what he did as a prosecutor on the first case.
As glad as I am to see Blueblood experience much deserved consequences, I do fear the fallout that’s awaiting the other Equestrian royalty/aristocracy (that have played a courtroom role in these past and ongoing cases). All these cases seem to have been designed to bring out and emphasize said royalty’s worst traits into the public eye (Blueblood’s ego, Luna’s paranoia/manipulative inclination). With Celestia having been a judge for Overall’s past trial, I dread to imagine what controversial past decision she made that will come back to bite everybody.
Phillo Reed had Stars in his eyes! That's a unique expression to see so far
like Scootalloo
So does Fated
You know, the fact that Equity tried to make certain that Rarity was convicted made me think for certain that she was the mastermind setting all these supposed cases to falsely incriminate the Mane 6 and those close to them, possibly to mar Equestria's heroes and maybe even undermine the royals. But then i heard her spiel about remaining neutral and not giving one side or the other an edge, and it makes me wonder if that's just a cop out or delusion on how justice is done, rather than say, i dunno, aiding in finding the truth and properly upholding the law.
Of course, i still have my eye on Equity. She might be a Moriarty-like mastermind, feigning Lawful Neutral while being Lawful Evil.
The previous Lawkeeper seems to lean farther into it, so it'd feel weird for her to do it when Equity hates them so much

She seems more expressive when it comes to Philo than when she's around others. Even with Private Eye she wasn't like this. I wonder why.
I also wonder about her past.
@@vgmaster9The trailer for Elements of Justice shows that the Crystal Empire will be visited at some point. So if I had to guess, Equity may have a mysterious past relationship with Sombra. (Perhaps the ObiWan Kenobi to Sombra’s Anakin)
@@topnotchshinobi Unlikely, given that Sombra lived a thousand years ago and we have no indication that Equity is immortal.
It’s likely that there’s been a misunderstanding between Rainbow Dash and Stream Line

@@topnotchshinobiWhile more so an idea from the ARG, there seems to be an overarching idea of mistrust of the current authority from the first case and somewhat expressed in the second case from the Bonds of Justice episode involving Luna, so while maybe not implicating Shining or Cadence, it could connect to a trusted official of the Crystal Empire(though if the series holds to no traditional culprits like the Ace Attorney games normally do until probably the ending case, it'll be trickier)
Honestly, the new detective Philo Reed is becoming my favorite secondary character in this new case since, despite still being somewhat unexpected in his methods of investigation and deduction, he has a lot of charisma (especially making a good team with Trucy for this) 👍🏽😁
He certainly gives a vibe similar to Herlock Sholms, considering his wordplay and emphasis on deductive reasoning. I hope to see him perform a Dance of Deduction in a later episode.

Okay, so there appears be a lot more to Equity than we initially thought. I found myself intrigued by what was shown in the ending with her speaking to Philo, getting into details that appeared…touchy. This just makes things a lot more interesting and I look forward to delving deeper into this plot line. But as for now, I’m curious as to what we’ll see at the trial.
Another great episode, guys! Until next time, see ya!
. I have theories regarding Rainbow Dash and Rarity’s cases. And some possibility of Law Equity’s role. I need everyone’s opinion on these.
Predictions:
-Rainbow’s case: Stream Line faked her own poisoning
-Rarity: Either Espie or Law Equity is the true culprit. Though a higher chance that Espie did it
For Rainbows case, think about it. Rainbow Dash is not only well known as one of the element wielders but is also known for her extraordinary flying abilities with her rainbow trail and her sonic rainboom. I mean who wouldn’t want that on the Wonderbolts?
Stream Line believes she can’t compete with that. So in order to make the competition easier for herself she either:
-faked her own poisoning the whole time. There was no poisoning in the first place. She pretended to be poisoned and framed Rainbow
-she actually did poison herself and framed Rainbow for it
-she gotten someone else to poison her under her orders to frame Rainbow
Though another thing that came to mind. What if Lightning is actually involved in this case? It seems possible. She could either be
-An accomplice to Stream Line’s crime
-Commiting identity fraud and disguised and going by the name Stream Line. She disguised herself and went by a different name in an attempt to get back in the reserves to claim a spot in the Wonderbolts and get back at Rainbow for getting her kicked out of the academy the first time around
To those who argue that Lightning Dust wouldn’t do something that extreme, I believe something like this would be something she could commit. She’d be the type of person to endanger other ponies lives and disregard said lives as long as she’s benefits from the situation. She’ll definitely pull off something extreme for the sake of her own selfish desire to inflate her ego and be top dog, getting a spot in the Wonderbolts.
As for Rarity’s case. I have a good feeling that Espie is the true culprit. Or Law Equity. Through leaning towards more Law Equity.
Maybe it wasn’t Overall that committed suicide, rather it was Estella who committed suicide.
There’s a few possibilities:
-Overall cheated on Coco with Estella
-Overall cheated on Estella with Coco
-Overall and Coco became a couple before Estella could confess her feelings
There is a possibility that Overall Concept isn’t as good of a pony has the series makes him out to be
And out of defeat and distress, Estella ended her life.
Consumed with grief and wanting to avenge her sister, Espie used her sister’s suicide to frame Overall concept for murder. It likely Overall was acquitted thanks to Sonata so Espie decided to go with plan B. She murdered Overall concept with the intention to frame Coco for it. She eventually then went MIA to avoid getting caught and having to stand trial and get sent to prison for the crime she committed. Now I understand that Espie disappeared after her sisters death. She could honestly be anywhere in Equestria. It’s possible that she was at Manehattan on the night of Overalls death. She likely went because she planned to kill Overall Concept and frame Coco for it. Or at least someone else and then slip away without a trace of presence still hiding away in the shadows where no pony could find her, continuing to be on the run from the authorities. Not sure how Rarity fits in this equation though
However I do have another motive that could be possible for how Estella possibility took her own life and now Espie had to possibly kill Overall Concept. From case 1, Coco said that Overall Concept won a fashion contest. This video stated how Estella and Overall worked together at the same company. Even if Trixie claimed they weren’t exactly rivals, I beg to differ. I have a feeling Estella entered the same contes as Overall and obviously she lost. Either she lost fairly to him or was betrayed by him through him possibly cheating. That could be the possible reason of the twins’ and Overalls falling out. Distraught by the loss and the possible betrayal, Estella took her own life as if there was no hope left of recovering after this. Then to avenge her sister, Espie framed Overall to fool everyone that he killed Estella when really Estella killer herself. Sonata more than likely gotten Overall the Not Guilty verdict so Espie had to move onto a plan B. She decided to travel to Manehattan when she heard there was a play going on, she took advantage of that opportunity to strike. She killed Overall concept which caused Coco and Rarity to be accused of Estella’s crimes. Estella managed to slip away still hiding in the shadows and as of right now, still on the run from the law
As for Law Equity. I might have this feeling she could be guilty of a crime. With how similar she looks to the twins in mane color, I have a feeling she’s related to them. Maybe Espie is an accomplice to Equity’s crime if Equity were to be guilty of killing Overall concept.
Though if Law Equity isn’t the curprit for case 3. I have a feeling she’ll definitely be for either case 4 or 5. Wait a minute, what if Espie is a defendant for either case 4 or case 5?
I have a feeling that Law Equity would be a culprit of a heinous crime and that either Twilight or Espie is framed for it: I have a feeling both of them will be framed for Law Equity’s crimes: if Espie were to be related to Law Equity as a blood relative or family or something, or adopted by her, it could be a reference to Turnabout Goodbyes where Miles own mentor/adopted father killed his true and biological father. I predict Espie and Twilight will be the last two defendants for cases 4 and 5.
Law Equity is clearly playing mind games and is manipulating the mane 6. Like from the end of case 2; it’s pretty obvious she’s gaslighting the mane 6. She probably organized and orchestrated most of these cases with the intentions to completely tear apart the elements of harmony through the use of bringing discord amongst them.
I have a feeling that Law Equity could be a changing who’s working under Queen Chrysalis. Or better yet, Law Equity is Queen Chrysalis. She’s weakening the mane 6s harmony by creating chaos amongst them.
Anyways, what’s everyone’s thoughts on this?
Somehow I sense Fated Pursuit presents a refined mix between the attitudes of Rarity and Twilight Sparkle in many ways. 🤔🤔
Yeah, it’s quite the interesting blend! On another note, I’m curious about how many how many other Equestrian High Council members will be explored in the span of the remaining cases? We’ve already seen law enforcement (Lawkeeper Equity, Detective Philo Reed) and education (Fated Pursuit), so what about other areas like healthcare, agriculture, economy/trade, public works, arts/culture, sports/recreation, and social services?
Well, seeing other side of the Lawkeeper was...interesting. And Philo Reed actually managed to impress me. Unlike Private Eye he actually can make her flinch.As for both cases - I am intrigued. But who would be prosecutiors in both of them now when Prince Douchebag is dismissed?
"But how would be prosecutiors in both of them now when Prince Douchebag is dismissed?"
My suspicion is that Luna will prosecute one of the cases while Trixie will prosecute the other. We did see both of their silhouettes in the trailer for Case 3, after all.
@@stephenwells6434I look forward to seeing more of Trixie as a rival prosecutor! She’s like the perfect blend of Klavier’s over-the-top showmanship and Franziska’s ego/snobbiness, and I think she still has a score to settle with both Phoenix and Sonata in the courtroom. (Unless the writing team plans to subvert our expectations by having Trixie start fresh with a new rival in the form of Apollo)
@@topnotchshinobi They could go either way with her. At this point in the canon, Trixie has started making an effort to become a better pony. However, she also still REALLY resents Twilight, and she doesn't fully overcome her desire to get back at her until she meets Starlight Glimmer.
It’s likely that there’s been a misunderstanding between Rainbow Dash and Stream Line
Pinkie was at the academy likely because she’s sneaking in contraband for Rainbow by sneaking in the grape juice, hence why she’s a witness.

Maybe Lightning Dust was the one who created the tornado and Stream Line passed out maybe not from creating the tornado but perhaps doing something else strenuous. There’s also a possibility that Stream Line passed out from exhaustion from trying to Lightning Dust.
What do you think?
Do you think it will be possible before the trial, Pinkie could also be arrested too along with be trialed as well as an accomplice of Rainbow?
Like I said before, the most likely reason why Pinkie was there as a witness was because she was helping Rainbow smuggle the grape juice into the academy so I kinda do see Pinkie also getting arrested too
I have a theory on what caused Stream Lines Collapse, it's a bit basic but I'd say they had an allergic reaction to the juice. Maybe they had changed ingredients between Shipments or something of the like?
I wonder if the shipment that Rainbow have is sent by Pinkie Pie. Think about it, Rainbow say that Pinkie was at the Academy on the day of the accident. Plus, the amount of juice box show that it just recently open. And with how Phoenix say the lock appear when she say "just a case of me being in the wrong place at the wrong time" it make wonder, what else that she ask Pinkie to sent that maybe a contraband to the Academy....

So Equity thinks Rarity's conviction is inevitable? Imagine the look on her face when Apollo proves her wrong!
The question is, will he? EoJ has shown us it has no qualms about throwing massive plot twists at us and wrenching our hearts?
What if...?
@@karlhnedkovsky5214 Don't overthink it now. When it gets down to it, there's more to the story than the plot twist we are hit with. The question is, will the protagonist look beyond to more than just the truth when the need arises? We need to keep Rarity's character in mind considering she's more passionate in her craft, that her friends know that she's a genuine person. Equity has her issues that makes her job not so 100% clear, so we can't take everything at face value. Rarity started this thing calling on Phoenix for help with Coco. I know her personality enough that she does her thing legit. So that really makes that apparent that we all need to learn to look beyond things at face value.
@@leon4000 Fair point.
@@karlhnedkovsky5214Maybe as a mix of both, she could be let go of the charges, but given the connection to the fashion/theater business, it still leaves her with suspicion around whatever force is behind this whole series
Stop the presses. Philo wins the award for Best Character for Case 3. Starting from the Great Ace Attorney Herlock Sholmes reference, to his voice actor, dialogue and (GASP) HIM BEING MORE OF A MENTOR TO APOLLO THAN PHOENIX WAS TO HIM IN CANON
BY GOD. The writers behind this are freaking GENIUSES. They actually gave Apollo some EMOTIONAL SUPPORT IN THE FORM OF AN OC
I’m all in for Apollo actually having a friend & having his PTSD towards Clay addressed. Super invested in future episodes just based on that and Philo. Philo himself proves this entire production is SSS tier.
And is it odd to want to ship Sonata and Phoenix? They have such strong chemistry.
Philo Reed isn't an OC. Well, not to this series at least. He was created for My Little Investigations, a game which has been a major inspiration for the Elements of Justice team.
Also, since you complemented his voice actor, I feel obligated to point out that he was the same actor who voiced Ace Swift in Turnabout Storm.
You are far from the only one to ship Phoenix and Sonata. People have been shipping them since the original, especially since Sonata has such a strong resemblance to Mia Fey, who many fans also ship with Phoenix.
A lot of this is true! Though the direction we're taking Philo has been reworked for EoJ. As such, he's not a pure 1:1 copy. Particularly in one area of his character, which we highlighted a bit in the episode 😉
Even more fun facts: Canadian is reprising his role as Philo, so we've kept the same voice, which I am so grateful for!
Ace Swift? I watched Turnabout Storm like twice and the difference between the two characters is astronomical! Definitely not saying Ace Swift was a bad character but there’s so much heart & passion in Philo’s performance it’s intense 🤯 thanks for letting me know that!
As for Sonata & Phoenix glad I’m not alone. They really do click with each other.
@@AceAttorneyElementsofJusticeKeep up the good work as usual! And on another note, will Phoenix’s unresolved feelings over his past sketchy actions as “Hobo Nick” continue to be a plot point in future episodes, or have you exhausted everything you wanted to say about the topic?

She eventually then went MIA to avoid getting caught and having to stand trial and get sent to prison for the crime she committed. Now I understand that Espie disappeared after her sisters death. She could honestly be anywhere in Equestria. It’s possible that she was at Manehattan on the night of Overalls death. She likely went because she planned to kill Overall Concept and frame Coco for it. Or at least someone else and then slip away without a trace of presence still hiding away in the shadows where no pony could find her, continuing to be on the run from the authorities. Not sure how Rarity fits in this equation though
However I do have another motive that could be possible for how Estella possibility took her own life and now Espie had to possibly kill Overall Concept. From case 1, Coco said that Overall Concept won a fashion contest. This video stated how Estella and Overall worked together at the same company. Even if Trixie claimed they weren’t exactly rivals, I beg to differ. I have a feeling Estella entered the same contes as Overall and obviously she lost. Either she lost fairly to him or was betrayed by him through him possibly cheating. That could be the possible reason of the twins’ and Overalls falling out. Distraught by the loss and the possible betrayal, Estella took her own life as if there was no hope left of recovering after this. Then to avenge her sister, Espie framed Overall to fool everyone that he killed Estella when really Estella killer herself. Sonata more than likely gotten Overall the Not Guilty verdict so Espie had to move onto a plan B. She decided to travel to Manehattan when she heard there was a play going on, she took advantage of that opportunity to strike. She killed Overall concept which caused Coco and Rarity to be accused of Estella’s crimes. Estella managed to slip away still hiding in the shadows and as of right now, still on the run from the law
As for Law Equity. I might have this feeling she could be guilty of a crime. With how similar she looks to the twins in mane color, I have a feeling she’s related to them. Maybe Espie is an accomplice to Equity’s crime if Equity were to be guilty of killing Overall concept.
Though if Law Equity isn’t the curprit for case 3. I have a feeling she’ll definitely be for either case 4 or 5. Wait a minute, what if Espie is a defendant for either case 4 or case 5?
I have a feeling that Law Equity would be a culprit of a heinous crime and that either Twilight or Espie is framed for it: I have a feeling both of them will be framed for Law Equity’s crimes: if Espie were to be related to Law Equity as a blood relative or family or something, or adopted by her, it could be a reference to Turnabout Goodbyes where Miles own mentor/adopted father killed his true and biological father. I predict Espie and Twilight will be the last two defendants for cases 4 and 5.
Law Equity is clearly playing mind games and is manipulating the mane 6. Like from the end of case 2; it’s pretty obvious she’s gaslighting the mane 6. She probably organized and orchestrated most of these cases with the intentions to completely tear apart the elements of harmony through the use of bringing discord amongst them.
I have a feeling that Law Equity could be a changing who’s working under Queen Chrysalis. Or better yet, Law Equity is Queen Chrysalis. She’s weakening the mane 6s harmony by creating chaos amongst them.
Anyways, what’s everyone’s thoughts on this?
1:05:43
She find it as likely as a dragon performing slam poetry in a coffee shop? Apparently she hadn't met Garble And what we would discover about him in season 9, long after this crossover placement
The previous lawkeeper had a first name with "A" in it.
Production quality has been going up rapidly each episode! So excited!
And here we are at Part 2, and with a name like Skeletons in the Closet, we can already be prepared to potentially unearth some dark or unexpected secrets.
Spoilers below, as usual, so be warned, lol
Apollo's side:
Unless I missed something, it's still not made entirely clear what sort of place Keresmatic's Mare Attic is supposed to be, but whatever it is, both Apollo and Applejack know it's not a place for kids, so it'll be just Polly and Trucy taking a look around. What we DO discover is a few new faces, including Fated Pursuit, an Equestrian High Council member who used to be a teacher and headmistress, and who seems to have a high regard for both the education system in Equestria and its government, and won't consider the idea of imperfection in either. That scene between her and our old friend Prince Blueblood was a nice bit of continuity, too, showing his behavior in court did have consequences. And yet, we still don't know who the prosecutor of this case will be.
We also get to properly meet Philo Reed, the lead detective. He certainly gives off an air of Herlock Sholmes of Great Ace Attorney fame: charismatic, eccentric, yet ultimately competent and deserving of his title as an investigator. That said, searching Overall's room doesn't seem to have turned up anything apart from an empty (potentially unused) phial and a photo of the Pantomimia sisters. His speech to Apollo about showing due respect for what the dead have left behind really hits hard, especially if you've played Dual Destinies...That scene with Coco was also very sweet, with Apollo not wanting to dash her hopes with news of little progress, although we're given something else to ponder: why wouldn't Overall have brought up Estella and Espie to Coco? Since Apollo's bracelet didn't react, we know Coco wasn't lying about not knowing. Something isn't right here, but right now, all Apollo and Trucy can do is wait to get in touch with Philo's contact, who will hopefully clear things up.
Sonata and Phoenix's side:
It's sweet hearing Phoenix and Sonata being able to converse and banter on friendly terms like this, like Sonata dealing with Phoenix's wonderment at walking on clouds. I know I'd be scared out of my mind being up so high, not knowing how long the cloudwalking spell lasts. And at least we're given some confirmation about what Athena and Twilight are doing: helping Sugar Stamp, Private Eye, and Fair Devotion after what happened in the last trial. I just hope they're able to work in good spirits with each other. They were a trustworthy duo at the defense's bench, but after the revelations after the trial, who knows what's going through their minds right now?...
I should've figured Spitfire would be the one we'd be seeing to get more information. She's clearly trying to keep an impersonal air about the whole affair, but she's clearly smarting about the idea of her team members harming each other, and I think I know a good example of what she's thinking of...Good on Sonata for managing to get Spitfire's trust in allowing them to look around, though, reminding her of what's at stake: the life and liberty of one of her cadets. I don't think Dash would like the comparison between her and Sonata either, but regardless, Sonata's frankness has given Spitfire what she needs to trust her and Phoenix with taking a look around.
With Sonata using Logic Chess last part, and now the 'Investigation' style of the Investigations games, Sonata really has become the new Miles Edgeworth, hasn't she? And so Stream Line's locker was left unlocked, with a couple of boxes of grape juice with different shipping numbers. So she and Rainbow are the only ones who drink grape juice at the Academy. But Stream Line had a juice box from the shipment Rainbow ordered from in her own locker? I can't help but feel like that'll be relevant to her supposed poisoning...And that tear in the bed beside Rainbow's in the barracks. If it's a common place to hide contraband, what could've been hidden in that bed? If what Phoenix is thinking is true, if he saw Psyche Locks around Rainbow when she brought up her arrest, what could it mean?...
So Stream Line was muttering something before she lost consciousness, but the results of a tox examination came back negative? So that means she may not have been poisoned after all, but Rainbow's sure they suspect her of it? Something's seriously not right here...
And now a tornado's made a mess of the landing strip on the same day as the incident, one that Spitfire thinks was a prank gone too far, and one that hurt not just a fellow Bolt, but a member of a tour group. It's pretty clear who Spitfire's talking about when it comes to hotshot recruits pulling off ego-stroking showboating stunts that put others in danger, but surely, surely _that_ pony can't be involved, can they? Either way, you can see how Rainbow Dash's words during her own days as a cadet have stuck with Spitfire: there's a difference between pushing yourself and just being reckless, and recklessness should NOT be rewarded. And she wanted Sonata and Phoenix to investigate the connection between the two events because she saw what happened when Private Eye went outside the boundaries of the law to do what he thought was right, and how it affected public perception of the police. She doesn't want the same happening to her team. She's not the captain for nothing.
And now for something completely different, but perhaps not wholly unexpected, it looks like Philo's contact is none other than Lawkeeper Equity. It's surprising to find her in a more agreeable mood, after the cold and dismissive way we've seen her act so far, but it seems she holds Philo in good regard. This mutual associate they bring up, I think we can all guess who that is, especially with the mention of Turning Page, which really seems to have struck a chord with Equity. Trucy getting a chance to stand as co-counsel may take a bit more time, but that last favor...What's in that file? It sounds like it could be what Apollo needs to bolster his defense, but Equity's reluctant to grant more advantages than she feels is necessary. But being reminded of this mentor of hers...That's really seemed to break down her coldness, and made her more willing to grant, not an advantage, but an even dealing, so that justice can truly be sought. Of course, things are more complicated by Philo needing to be present for Rainbow's case, but now I'm curious about this mentor of Equity's, the former Lawkeeper, who seems to have had a reputation that was publicly unfavorable, and yet Equity held him in high esteem...
Looking forward to what comes next, as always! =)
You think Lightning Dust could have something to do with Rainbows case? Or maybe with what went down in Turnabout Storm?
@@kmmk5022I don’t think she has anything to do with the case, she got kicked out of the wonderbolts reserve.
I thought the Attic was like you know...but it doesn't seem like it is despite the name.
@@jaedynp-a7705that doesn’t mean she won’t trespass the academy
I think that the case file may be about the case that Overall Concept was accused of that we saw in the first episode.
It was exciting to see a familiar face like Spitfire being a key witness in Rainbow's case. In addition to presenting interesting (and fun) moments with Phoenix in this episode, we have also been reminded of those moments that he usually shares with Dash both in the series and his contributions there. 👍🏽👍🏽
Wow, so many unexpected things. And who knew Philo would be such a good negotiator.
I like what you’ve done with Spitfire here. Shown her to be more competent than the show and that final scene between Philo and Equity, very interesting. Looking forward to the first trail. Keep going strong people, you’re all doing excellent work right now
In the words of every great attorney, Defense or Prosecution, IGI ARI!!!
OMG I lost it when Philo started doing Sholmes' thing. Beautiful. Love all the mechanics and references from other games youre bringing into this so far. Keep up the good work guys!😊
Gotta say I love Fated's design!
Though, I wonder what exactly Apollo saw in the window that seemed inappropriate for children.
Also, Philo has some insane IQ.
Considering the name of the place ("Mare Attic..."), probably clop-related things.
Given his reaction, as well as how Playwright had spoken about it in the previous episode, I imagine that it is a place for certain "adult" activities.
@@stephenwells6434 The name of the place implies something like that, too.
Can't be on the HIGH Council if you're not of HIGH standards ;)
@@stephenwells6434 That’s my initial thought previously, but neither Apollo nor Trucy mention anything like that while in the lobby, which is the room he peeked in.
46:11 Plot Twist: Rainbow Dash was arrested for kidnapping SMARTY PANTS!
Even I would have to find her GUILTY for that!
So we have two cases going on simultaneously? In Manehatten we have Apollo Justice investigating the Overall case with Rarity as the main suspect and at Wonderbolt Academy we have Sonata and Pheonix Wright solving the Streamline case with Rainbowdash as the main suspect?
I like how the glasses on a ponies face vibrates! It looks adorable!
Due to some technical difficulties with TH-cam, the time codes below are now 5 minutes ahead of described scenes.
38:51 The Wonderbolt Captain who scared Scootaloo with the “full body cast drinking through a straw!”
48:15 Hey! Don’t go dissing on grape-flavors, Spitfire. Knuckles the Echidna wouldn’t like that…
51:25 HEY! Rainbow Dash has stolen Smarty-Pants!
Where’s Smarty Pants? I don’t see it.
@@sonicgen20Sorry. TH-cam’s set all of my time codes back by 5 minutes.
You can see Smarty Pants at 46:11 .
@@Doc_Animator_N Oh, now I see it, thanks.
If you set those time codes during the live broadcast, then the explanation is quite simple. The live broadcast had a five-minute countdown before the episode proper commenced. That countdown has since been removed, hence why all of your codes are now five minutes off.
@@stephenwells6434 Thank you.
Seeing Equity actually show emotions that weren't pure stoicness sure surprised me, also seeing Cruise Control from Turnabout Storm in the credits was interesting... Who is that mare that was with him? I don't think I've seen her before. Is Cruise going to show up in this series as well? I am really excited to see where this all goes next.
And the mystery has gotten bigger.
What could be Overall Concept’s history with the missing sisters? Who could’ve poisoned Stream Line? Who made the tornado tear up the Wonderbolt Academy? And who is Equity’s former mentor? This: 1:10:16 “Lawkeeper A?”
I thought her mentor was Royal Order
Maybe Overall had an affair or something
It’s likely that there’s been a misunderstanding between Rainbow Dash and Stream Line
Pinkie was at the academy likely because she’s sneaking in contraband for Rainbow by sneaking in the grape juice, hence why she’s a witness.
Besides Pinkie Pie, Fleetfoot and Sky High will likely be two other witnesses that will testify in court too since they’re also victims, getting injured from the tornado. Along with of coarse Stream Line herself.
It’s likely Lightning Dust might have something to do with this. It’s likely that say if she were already expelled from the academy, she trespassed onto the campus and attempted to Rainbow Dash as revenge for getting her kicked out of the Wonderbolts reserved. She was doing all she can to sabotage Rainbow Dash and either intentionally or unintentionally framed Stream Line for this. She intended to poison Rainbow but somehow poisoned Stream Line by mistake. Then unintentionally or intentionally framed Rainbow Dash as a last resort.
Though, since Stream Lines test for any poison showed negative, it’s likely she didn’t consume any of the laced juice boxes. Maybe the box wasn’t laced with anything poisonous but maybe some sort of medicine that causes people to get drowsy.
Maybe Lightning Dust was the one who created the tornado and Stream Line passed out maybe not from creating the tornado but perhaps doing something else strenuous. There’s also a possibility that Stream Line passed out from exhaustion from trying to Lightning Dust.
What do you think?
Oh, MAN, this was a good entry! Philo was pleasantly brilliant and excentric! He's a dead-ringer for Herlock Sholmes!
We have two intense cases building up. One in Manehatten and one in Cloudsdale. Where will they lead, what connections do they have, and WHAT will result from the secrets they hold?
A phial left in a pillow. A tear in a mattress. An unscheduled tornado. And a beloved memento, wrapped in a white ribbon. . . .
Oh, and one last thing. I'm not gonna lie: when I heard that Spike and Sweetie Belle, being kids, weren't allowed to go inter K.M.A., I honestly thought it was one of the THOSE places.
AHHHH! I love the griffon express poster at the beginning! I remember her from Turnabout Storm, Lamora!
Wow, you guys are on fire lately! I truly didn't expect this new chapter would come out sooner, but that could only mean that your team is getting bigger and stronger and I'm really happy for you guys! I'm starting to love this case, especially after Sonata showed her particular set of skills! Philo Reed really seems like a good guy who's willing to help Apollo to find the truth. And wow it really seems there's something big going on with Equestria's justice system, and it probably had to do what happened to Lawkeeper's mentor.
Anyhow, I really love this! I hope you guys are still on fire and bring more content! But of course, take the time you need!
I love when Apollo acts like Trucy's big brother. Honestly almost wish Applejack went with him instead of Trucy, given how she seems to relax his more negative emotions, where Trucy stresses him out a lot more trying to act like said big brother.
If only the main series allowed them to know they're related.
Just hope people didn't need to crunch for this, this is very quality
This is a two-hit combo of a case. Rainbow Dash (again) is on trial for attempted merking of another pony and Rarity getting caught up in a past case that she wasn't involved in. Super crazy.
Are we sure Rarity isn’t involved in anyway? I’m sure she isn’t guilty but there must surely be some way she’s connected to it. If only we could see that supposed letter from Rarity that seems to incriminate her.
8:57
Fated pursuit: princess Celestia would never allow bullying in any school.
Diamond tiara and silver spoon: did you forget what we did to the cmc?
OMG with that ending looks like the dark age of the law of Equestria IS coming
It just keeps getting better and better, doesn't it? Scene 5 reminded me of how *clean* and *faithful* everything looks, too!
Nothing more fun than improving one's craft over time!
Man, I am SO intrigued by this-
You've got a great project here, and I'm really excited to see where it goes! But, while I and many others are glad to see new episodes come out, please don't overwork yourselves for our sakes. We're willing to wait if it means more content of this quality.
This is releasing so fast I’m so excited holy moly
Dang, I thought for sure there would be a twist where it turned out Stella and her sister were actually the same pony, but I guess not, unless Equestria has Photoshop.
Oh my gosh, I thought we’d be waiting a couple more months for the next part! Hope this time finally starts the Apollo case proper and actually gets Rarity’s incrimination case started!
. I have theories regarding Rainbow Dash and Rarity’s cases. And some possibility of Law Equity’s role. I need everyone’s opinion on these.
Predictions:
-Rainbow’s case: Stream Line faked her own poisoning
-Rarity: Either Espie or Law Equity is the true culprit. Though a higher chance that Espie did it
For Rainbows case, think about it. Rainbow Dash is not only well known as one of the element wielders but is also known for her extraordinary flying abilities with her rainbow trail and her sonic rainboom. I mean who wouldn’t want that on the Wonderbolts?
Stream Line believes she can’t compete with that. So in order to make the competition easier for herself she either:
-faked her own poisoning the whole time. There was no poisoning in the first place. She pretended to be poisoned and framed Rainbow
-she actually did poison herself and framed Rainbow for it
-she gotten someone else to poison her under her orders to frame Rainbow
Though another thing that came to mind. What if Lightning is actually involved in this case? It seems possible. She could either be
-An accomplice to Stream Line’s crime
-Commiting identity fraud and disguised and going by the name Stream Line. She disguised herself and went by a different name in an attempt to get back in the reserves to claim a spot in the Wonderbolts and get back at Rainbow for getting her kicked out of the academy the first time around
To those who argue that Lightning Dust wouldn’t do something that extreme, I believe something like this would be something she could commit. She’d be the type of person to endanger other ponies lives and disregard said lives as long as she’s benefits from the situation. She’ll definitely pull off something extreme for the sake of her own selfish desire to inflate her ego and be top dog, getting a spot in the Wonderbolts.
As for Rarity’s case. I have a good feeling that Espie is the true culprit. Or Law Equity. Through leaning towards more Law Equity.
Maybe it wasn’t Overall that committed suicide, rather it was Estella who committed suicide.
There’s a few possibilities:
-Overall cheated on Coco with Estella
-Overall cheated on Estella with Coco
-Overall and Coco became a couple before Estella could confess her feelings
There is a possibility that Overall Concept isn’t as good of a pony has the series makes him out to be
And out of defeat and distress, Estella ended her life.
Consumed with grief and wanting to avenge her sister, Espie used her sister’s suicide to frame Overall concept for murder. It likely Overall was acquitted thanks to Sonata so Espie decided to go with plan B. She murdered Overall concept with the intention to frame Coco for it. She eventually then went MIA to avoid getting caught and having to stand trial and get sent to prison for the crime she committed. Now I understand that Espie disappeared after her sisters death. She could honestly be anywhere in Equestria. It’s possible that she was at Manehattan on the night of Overalls death. She likely went because she planned to kill Overall Concept and frame Coco for it. Or at least someone else and then slip away without a trace of presence still hiding away in the shadows where no pony could find her, continuing to be on the run from the authorities.

Anyways, what’s everyone’s thoughts on this?
Dam good episode, Equity's pain and all the developments. Keep up the awesome work teams :D Can't wait for the next episode
This is shaping up to be the best episode yet, so much intrigue! Great job everybody!
So.... to sum up all of the information from this episode.
- The Headmistress of the High Council may or may not be hiding details on purpose for Apollo's case to try and make sure Rarity being framed for Overall's death goes off without a hitch.
- Coco didn't know the Pantomimia Twins were related to Overall despite hooking it up with him, probably has something to do with that case Sonata did with Trixie in the flashback sequence at the beginning of the last part.
- Stream Line and Rainbow drink Grape Juice, however one of those boxes is from the latter's box of Grape Juice, which is strange given that she only started drinking it, whilst the former drank it for longer.
- The bed next to Rainbow's has an intentional tear through it to likely hide whatever caused Stream Line to collapse. Stream Line also suffered from light-headedness going into vomiting, anxiety, extreme perspiration, a dangerously high heart rate, and also hallucinations, and repetitive speech. Whatever caused Stream Line to collapse was not poison, since the tox report came back negative, so WHAT IS Rainbow in prison for if not a suspect of poisoning her?
- So.... somebody ran a Tornado through the landing strip of Wonderbolt Academy, during a Tour.... on the same day Stream Line collapsed, and NO obstacle courses were schedule during Tour hours? Now we know the names of those injured by said Tornado, Fleetfoot and Sky High (Poor Kid). Glad Spitfire agrees that this is WAAAYY too suspicious to be a simple coincidence.
- Ok then, seems Philo (the one who got Rarity arrested) seems to be asking favors from Equity. One of which has to do with with Turning Page... which means the letter came from Private Eye (Poor dude truly ashamed of his actions in regards to the last trial). Second is asking Trucy to be Apollo's co-council, which as a request... can't exactly happen properly. Since Twilight didn't give the request to hand her a badge, and she's also a child. But it seems she's allowing it if Trucy signs off on it.
- Apparently Philo has an extraordinary request he asks of Equity, even by his standards apparently. This favor having to do with records that would even the playing field in Apollo's trial. So it would seem that Rarity being prosecuted for Overall's death was something that was planned to happen. Philo not being able to send this their way... until after the Trial in Cloudsdale has been resolved. It also seems that Equity is quite hardened about a topic relating to her mentor, who seems to be someone that most people frown upon, and someone she remembers fondly, as seen by this wooden stamp in her drawer with white wrapping around the handle.
Seems like so many things happened in this episode for the Lawkeeper, and the two Defense Parties. Wonder how this will turn out in the next episode?
It’s likely that there’s been a misunderstanding between Rainbow Dash and Stream Line
Pinkie was at the academy likely because she’s sneaking in contraband for Rainbow by sneaking in the grape juice, hence why she’s a witness.
Besides Pinkie Pie, Fleetfoot and Sky High will likely be two other witnesses that will testify in court too since they’re also victims, getting injured from the tornado. Along with of coarse Stream Line herself.
It’s likely Lightning Dust might have something to do with this. It’s likely that say if she were already expelled from the academy, she trespassed onto the campus and attempted to Rainbow Dash as revenge for getting her kicked out of the Wonderbolts reserved. She was doing all she can to sabotage Rainbow Dash and either intentionally or unintentionally framed Stream Line for this. She intended to poison Rainbow but somehow poisoned Stream Line by mistake. Then unintentionally or intentionally framed Rainbow Dash as a last resort.
Though, since Stream Lines test for any poison showed negative, it’s likely she didn’t consume any of the laced juice boxes. Maybe the box wasn’t laced with anything poisonous but maybe some sort of medicine that causes people to get drowsy.
Maybe Lightning Dust was the one who created the tornado and Stream Line passed out maybe not from creating the tornado but perhaps doing something else strenuous. There’s also a possibility that Stream Line passed out from exhaustion from trying to Lightning Dust.
What do you think?
Do you think it will be possible before the trial, Pinkie could also be arrested too along with be trialed as well as an accomplice of Rainbow?
Like I said before, the most likely reason why Pinkie was there as a witness was because she was helping Rainbow smuggle the grape juice into the academy so I kinda do see Pinkie also getting arrested too
I'm starting to think that the one who really killed Overall Concept is also the one who sent Suri Polomare that letter.
Y'all are really keeping up to your word about consistently releasing episodes on a monthly basis! Great to see your new game plan and methods are coming to fruition just as you wanted them to be.
*SPOILERS BELOW NATURALLY*
Really enjoying the fact you guys are cutting down upon wordy dialogue, allowing for more emotional moments to settle speaking for itself, like reinforcing what immense grief Apollo had been put through in Dual Destinies events after Philo calls him out on matters of what is irrelevant to a case or not. While it doesn't obviously hurt to have characters converse about emotional beats, sometimes less can be more in other scenarios, too. It's a pretty tricky act to follow, but I'd say you all are doing well in it building upon the narrative about loss and irreplaceable history someone leaves behind after their untimely demise. On that note, what has immediately caught my attention would have to be the more vulnerable glimpse into Equity's background. The way Equity strongly reacted to Philo mentioning the circumstances surrounding Turning Page, what became of his father, and especially merely mentioning that previous Lawkeeper lead me to believe her father was in charge at one point before some kind of tragedy struck. If not her biological father, then somebody coming into her life as a figurative father figure to inspire Equity. It would certainly explain Equity's behavior around Apple Bloom previously about not wanting to discuss familial ties, given if the previous Lawkeeper mentor were someone related, then it says a lot about her outlook on everything in general. Equity is very bitter and hurt about whatever became of the previous Lawkeeper, regardless if it turns out to be the biological father, or a dear friend becoming found family for her. Easily was the most heavy emotional part, no question. Consider me very intrigued.
As for Phoenix & Sonata, it's simply a great time seeing such cheeky chemistry from their differing perspectives as defense attorneys. It's only natural to have them together after everything that's occurred from Turnabout Storm in poetic storytelling fashion. Once again, utilizing elements from Ace Attorney Investigations in adding a different flare to keep things entertaining, even in the beginning phase. One of my favorite parts had to be Sonata intentionally baiting Spitfire into getting a reaction about the Wonderbolts standing idly by seeing one of their own put on the chopping block, only to be praised for being as compassionate akin to Rainbow Dash. You can seriously tell right off the bat how better the pacing is. The whole Wonderbolts segment went by so quickly setting up every needed piece of evidence and stakes with zero fat in the way. With the first two parts already being this well crafted and paced nicely juggling three story perspectives, it makes me highly excited for when we get to the trials of both Rarity & Rainbow's cases respectively. Everyone is continuing to outdo themselves here.
Keep up the fucking excellent work!
Thank you 🙏
This has to be my absolute favorite episode so far.
This episode was wild!! Amazing job team!
The plot thickens. I am very curious to see how all this plays out and why Equity is so certain that Rarity is guilty.
The animation gets better and better with each uploaded video.
I tip my hat off to you guys.
Looking forward to the next one.
Philo is Giving Major Herlock Sholmes vibes.
I really do love that Sonata has such a prominent role in this case!
Philo Reed is so gosh darn adorable I love him!
When it come to pieces of logic in Ace Attorney, I would go Hmmm... Whenever a new piece of logic is added.
Whenever I put two pieces of logic together I would act like I'm trying to think hard. if it works. I shout "that's it!" But if it doesn't connect, I'll act like I got a headache
This is getting good keep going
Wow a new episode already, I’m shocked! I’m really glad we got this one in so quickly, the first one of this season felt a little dry compared to the others. I’m super excited to see what happens next! I’m really glad I get to follow along in a lovely series like this, good job team!
40:25
Can we talk about how incredibly well this series plays out just like an Ace Attorney game? The mention of looking at things from all angles, of thinking in 3D, I can SEE the tutorial light up of the arrows to look around the crime scene. Same thing with the discussion on piecing things together like a puzzle, I can see the logic puzzle introduction starting like in Investigations. I LOVE the attention to detail.
Well I glad of new characters be showing on this case and it investigation be interesting of the case in different locations before the court event. Least each characters be grown and evolved to this case as find real answers to the case. This video is amazing, dramatic, motivated and interesting. Plus, animated be cool on the video.
Finally, I like we are checking various separate cases in this episode in general could show us with details that complement each other and give us a surprise together (both obtained from the case of Rainbow, again, and that of Rarity in different places).
I'm sure it would be interesting in the end, although I think it would be better if Equity's appearances were explained behind everything (since I think it's more personal than just his work as a lawkeeper). 🤔
Bravo on your 2nd episode in this legal battle!
Perhaps it says something about my tastes - but I rather like that lobby in the "Mare Attic", especially that statuary. I would love to see that lobby rendered in nicer detail...or perhaps a pointer to where an image of what we saw could be downloaded?
Judging from the previous episode ("Hindsight & Foresight"), I suspect that we're not going to be treated to just 2 trials continuing on - but rather 3. We'll get more flashbacks from Sonata's involvement as Overall Concept's Defense Attorney in his trial in the case of Estelle Pantomimia, which
will reveal information crucial to Rarity's trial...and as a result, Sonata will be called upon to be a witness.
...And since that "confidential" finding (or record, or investigative notes) is going to be delivered to Apollo, Philo - who is being dispatched immediately to Cloudsdale as a witness - may take the opportunity to quiz Sonata about it. Since it IS "confidential", that means it wasn't entered in the public record of the previous trial, meaning it wasn't presented as evidence (heck - Trixie might never have seen it, either - and Trixie proved int he TS trial that she is no slouch as a prosecutor)....but is Sonata already aware of it? A meeting during the just-concluded trial, seen at the end of one episode between Sonata and Lord Equity, mentioned "secrets which couldn't remain hidden much longer". Could this "confidential" file be it?
Who here thought of the Disney Channel movie when they heard "sky high"?
Evidence list:
21:00 photograph of Stella and espie
The photograph depicts two earth pony mares, one of whom worked at Bridleway Theatre. Both are said to have been friends with overall concept.
22:47 Empty Glass Vial
A glass vial found in overalls room at keresmatics mare attic. It contains nothing and may not have ever been used.
Case B:
Streamlines juice boxes
Two juice boxes found in the same locker. They have different shipment numbers.
45:26 Juice Boxes in rainbows locker
A carton of juice boxes found in rainbows locker. The shipment numbers match another carton found in the victims locker.
59:07 Tornado report
Tornado report outlining a tornado that swept through the academy the same day that stream line collapsed. Two ponies were injured: fleetfoot and a filly named sky high.
It’s likely that there’s been a misunderstanding between Rainbow Dash and Stream Line
Pinkie was at the academy likely because she’s sneaking in contraband for Rainbow by sneaking in the grape juice, hence why she’s a witness.
Besides Pinkie Pie, Fleetfoot and Sky High will likely be two other witnesses that will testify in court too since they’re also victims, getting injured from the tornado. Along with of coarse Stream Line herself.
It’s likely Lightning Dust might have something to do with this. It’s likely that say if she were already expelled from the academy, she trespassed onto the campus and attempted to Rainbow Dash as revenge for getting her kicked out of the Wonderbolts reserved. She was doing all she can to sabotage Rainbow Dash and either intentionally or unintentionally framed Stream Line for this. She intended to poison Rainbow but somehow poisoned Stream Line by mistake. Then unintentionally or intentionally framed Rainbow Dash as a last resort.
Though, since Stream Lines test for any poison showed negative, it’s likely she didn’t consume any of the laced juice boxes. Maybe the box wasn’t laced with anything poisonous but maybe some sort of medicine that causes people to get drowsy.
Maybe Lightning Dust was the one who created the tornado and Stream Line passed out maybe not from creating the tornado but perhaps doing something else strenuous. There’s also a possibility that Stream Line passed out from exhaustion from trying to Lightning Dust.
What do you think?
Despite of being late, I was really excited too check this new episode of this new case from this awesome series.. surely the hard work for all the crew was really worth it at the end. 👍🏽👍🏽
This is definitely getting more interesting by the episode...
How interesting :p
I am quite new to watching this series and I have (of course) subscribed. I’ve watched every single episode in order. I have to say, you guys have did phenomenal!
Interesting, it seems like there are two cases going on at the same time.
First Logic Chess, now Logic... Sonata really is being Edgeworth here.
Also, gotta love Philo's dramatics and ability to pierce people or I guess, ponies with words.
Love the BGs in this episode! The trees at the Wonderbolt Academy looking like feathers was a nice touch.
This is gonna be another interesting episode...
THIS IS GONNA BE AWESOME!!!
DID APOLLO AND TRUCY VISIT A (W)HORSE HOUSE!?? HAHAH CAUSE THAT WOULD BE AWESOME AND FUNNY AS HELL!!
oh man! nice touch there doing Sonata's half like the
"ME Investigations" game (although not exactly my favorite of the franchise)
also, FUCKING HERLOCK SHOLMES!! havent played AA chronicles yet but still
REALLY wish we werent covering two trials simultaneously. feel like the energy is unnecessarily split, BUT i wont dwell on that and just enjoy!!
hoping the next is +2hrs!! loving this!!
WOW! This is the first episode to see lawkeeper Equity smile in this episode that was a nice feature! ❤❤❤❤
Anyone else feel like it the names of the two girls are a call back to Espella Cantabella from Ace Attorney vs Professor Layton game?
I was thinking the same thing thought I was the only one glad I am not.
You think it’s possible Espie could be the culprit?
@@kmmk5022 I don't want to jump to any conclusions, but if Espi is anything like darklaw, then it's possible she had something to do with it. Then again, both she AND Estella disappeared for months and they still haven't been heard from. Then again, they could always go the route of the second ace attorney game and have Espi take Estella's identity as her own. You know, like that nurse. Of course, I really don't see how she could have done it in what was such a small time frame for Overall's death. Like, where would she have come from and how did she disappear while there were two mares there?
@@alextalbain9269 . I have theories regarding Rainbow Dash and Rarity’s cases. And some possibility of Law Equity’s role. I need everyone’s opinion on these.
Predictions:
-Rainbow’s case: Stream Line faked her own poisoning
-Rarity: Either Espie or Law Equity is the true culprit. Though a higher chance that Espie did it
For Rainbows case, think about it. Rainbow Dash is not only well known as one of the element wielders but is also known for her extraordinary flying abilities with her rainbow trail and her sonic rainboom. I mean who wouldn’t want that on the Wonderbolts?
Stream Line believes she can’t compete with that. So in order to make the competition easier for herself she either:
-faked her own poisoning the whole time. There was no poisoning in the first place. She pretended to be poisoned and framed Rainbow
-she actually did poison herself and framed Rainbow for it
-she gotten someone else to poison her under her orders to frame Rainbow
Though another thing that came to mind. What if Lightning is actually involved in this case? It seems possible. She could either be
-An accomplice to Stream Line’s crime
-Commiting identity fraud and disguised and going by the name Stream Line. She disguised herself and went by a different name in an attempt to get back in the reserves to claim a spot in the Wonderbolts and get back at Rainbow for getting her kicked out of the academy the first time around
To those who argue that Lightning Dust wouldn’t do something that extreme, I believe something like this would be something she could commit. She’d be the type of person to endanger other ponies lives and disregard said lives as long as she’s benefits from the situation. She’ll definitely pull off something extreme for the sake of her own selfish desire to inflate her ego and be top dog, getting a spot in the Wonderbolts.
As for Rarity’s case. I have a good feeling that Espie is the true culprit. Or Law Equity. Through leaning towards more Law Equity.
Maybe it wasn’t Overall that committed suicide, rather it was Estella who committed suicide.
There’s a few possibilities:
-Overall cheated on Coco with Estella
-Overall cheated on Estella with Coco
-Overall and Coco became a couple before Estella could confess her feelings
There is a possibility that Overall Concept isn’t as good of a pony has the series makes him out to be
And out of defeat and distress, Estella ended her life.
Consumed with grief and wanting to avenge her sister, Espie used her sister’s suicide to frame Overall concept for murder. It likely Overall was acquitted thanks to Sonata so Espie decided to go with plan B. She murdered Overall concept with the intention to frame Coco for it. She eventually then went MIA to avoid getting caught and having to stand trial and get sent to prison for the crime she committed. Now I understand that Espie disappeared after her sisters death. She could honestly be anywhere in Equestria. It’s possible that she was at Manehattan on the night of Overalls death. She likely went because she planned to kill Overall Concept and frame Coco for it. Or at least someone else and then slip away without a trace of presence still hiding away in the shadows where no pony could find her, continuing to be on the run from the authorities. Not sure how Rarity fits in this equation though
However I do have another motive that could be possible for how Estella possibility took her own life and now Espie had to possibly kill Overall Concept. From case 1, Coco said that Overall Concept won a fashion contest. This video stated how Estella and Overall worked together at the same company. Even if Trixie claimed they weren’t exactly rivals, I beg to differ. I have a feeling Estella entered the same contes as Overall and obviously she lost. Either she lost fairly to him or was betrayed by him through him possibly cheating. That could be the possible reason of the twins’ and Overalls falling out. Distraught by the loss and the possible betrayal, Estella took her own life as if there was no hope left of recovering after this. Then to avenge her sister, Espie framed Overall to fool everyone that he killed Estella when really Estella killer herself. Sonata more than likely gotten Overall the Not Guilty verdict so Espie had to move onto a plan B. She decided to travel to Manehattan when she heard there was a play going on, she took advantage of that opportunity to strike. She killed Overall concept which caused Coco and Rarity to be accused of Estella’s crimes. Estella managed to slip away still hiding in the shadows and as of right now, still on the run from the law
As for Law Equity. I might have this feeling she could be guilty of a crime. With how similar she looks to the twins in mane color, I have a feeling she’s related to them. Maybe Espie is an accomplice to Equity’s crime if Equity were to be guilty of killing Overall concept.
Though if Law Equity isn’t the curprit for case 3. I have a feeling she’ll definitely be for either case 4 or 5. Wait a minute, what if Espie is a defendant for either case 4 or case 5?
I have a feeling that Law Equity would be a culprit of a heinous crime and that either Twilight or Espie is framed for it: I have a feeling both of them will be framed for Law Equity’s crimes: if Espie were to be related to Law Equity as a blood relative or family or something, or adopted by her, it could be a reference to Turnabout Goodbyes where Miles own mentor/adopted father killed his true and biological father. I predict Espie and Twilight will be the last two defendants for cases 4 and 5.
Law Equity is clearly playing mind games and is manipulating the mane 6. Like from the end of case 2; it’s pretty obvious she’s gaslighting the mane 6. She probably organized and orchestrated most of these cases with the intentions to completely tear apart the elements of harmony through the use of bringing discord amongst them.
I have a feeling that Law Equity could be a changing who’s working under Queen Chrysalis. Or better yet, Law Equity is Queen Chrysalis. She’s weakening the mane 6s harmony by creating chaos amongst them.
Anyways, what’s everyone’s thoughts on this?
@@kmmk5022 God damn this is long and it clearly has a lot of thought into it. But, you do know that we haven't been given anything that states Estella has died, right? Only disappeared along with her sister.
Something tells me that Equity is either the missing sister of Estella, or is Estella herself... regardless, this has been a very engrossing and intriguing series! This definitely does the Ace Attorney series and the Fourth Generation of My Little Pony justice!
You mean to assume that she faked her death?
@kmmk5022 Well, given that the details of how Estella died weren't exactly made very clear, it seems a little reasonable to assume that Estella's death may not by all it's cracked up to be.
@@thomasecker9405Why do you think she faked her death? Perhaps to possibly eliminate Overall?
@@kmmk5022 Possibly... or to target Rarity...
@@thomasecker9405what does she have against Rarity?
Wow episode 2 already that was quick 😄👍
Seeing these makes me want to see starlight one day in this
Not surprising the Wonderbolts would so easily accuse Rainbow Dash of something awful. First, they accuse her of writing a false note to Spitfire, now this. For all that talk about trust, they don't seem to really trust her at all. Dash should just leave the Wonderbolts, she's too good for them.
Technically, Elements of Justice takes place before that episode. It's set in the immediate aftermath of Season 4, while the episode you are referring to was a Season 5 episode.
For what it's worth, It's not the Wonderbolts accusing her this time. It's the police. Once Sonata got her to open up, it was pretty clear that Spitfire doesn't actually believe that Rainbow Dash committed the crime.
Then I gotta say that Spitfire is written a lot better here than in the actual show.@@stephenwells6434

What do you think?
Do you think it will be possible before the trial, Pinkie could also be arrested too along with be trialed as well as an accomplice of Rainbow?
Like I said before, the most likely reason why Pinkie was there as a witness was because she was helping Rainbow smuggle the grape juice into the academy so I kinda do see Pinkie also getting arrested too
@@stephenwells6434My point still stands.
@@Hewylewis Oh, to be sure. The Wonderbolts show zero loyalty to their members. They completely abandoned Soarin when he was injured qualifying for the Equestria Games, and didn't even visit him in the hospital until Rainbow Dash called them out. And of course, as you referenced, they suspected Rainbow Dash of conspiring against Spitfire despite how incredibly out-of-character that would be for her.
In fact, taking the Ace Attorney crossovers into account paints the Wonderbolts in an even worse light. After all, in this continuity the incident involving Wind Rider will be the third time Rainbow Dash is framed for a crime she didn't commit, and the second time she is falsely accused of sabotaging a fellow Wonderbolt. One would think, given the history of false accusations against her, that the Wonderbolts would be willing to give Rainbow the benefit of the doubt.
So, I certainly agree with you that Rainbow's idol-worship of the Wonderbolts is misplaced. However, saying that they should have known better than to accuse Rainbow because of "Rarity Investigates" is unfair, since that episode hasn't happened yet at this point in the timeline. And of course, since Elements of Justice is non-canon, using this to judge the Wonderbolts' conduct in the show is also unfair.
Cheers to a new episode.
Just when you think the information is thin on the ground, we get something big right at the end. Now, who might this Lawkeeper A be? Also, I don't see how there is any concrete evidence to suggest Rainbow poisoned anyone. The toxicology report was negative, so how can they prove poison was involved at all?
Ooooooo. Equity has some drama with Overall. Hype train is coming for the next episode already.
Boy, this was a fast release! Only a month after 3-1.
Impressive. Fan works rarely release this quickly.
Don't burn yourselves out though.
This was good, cant wait for the next in hopefully a couple of months👍
It's nice to see sonata's inner thoughts
Yes! I knew there would be a Dance of Deduction equivalent here!
TWO cases at the same time? how will they be connected, and when will Apollo and Phoenix meet up again
This part of the story was great guys! Can't wait for the next segment of the story! I hope Mr. Wright and Sonata find more clues to Rainbow Dash as well Apollo and Trucy to help Rarity. This story definitely has me on my toes. I hope it doesn't take too long for the next story. All of you keep up the great work you all do.👍
Later bye.
After watching the episode and credits again, I've been thinking: What if Sky High is Cruise Control's little sister?
If so, man, poor kid. Imagine finally waking up from a coma, only to end up being injured from a possible "prank". 😭
