Gumshoe: What's up? You look out of sorts. Wait... you didn't go and do something that's going to hurt Mr. Edgeworth's case again!

Police: "You're under arrest! I have a warrant... You have the right to remain silent, you have the right to an attorney..."

(Y/N): As far as motives go, that's a pretty solid one. They can definitely get that one to stick.
