(Screenshots taken in AAO)

- The screen now shakes when interjections appear.
- Improved Payne's breakdown. By like, a lot. He doesn't just fall to the floor now.
- Added a s e c r e t scene in Case 2. In fact it's so secret that you can't access it by normal means. Will you be able to find it I wonder?
- Updated the case screens. Pretty sure they're an improvement.
- A description of what you need to do now shows up whenever Argus has to present evidence. This makes up for the fact that PyWright removes the textbox on these present prompts. Could make the textboxes as fgs like in Contempt of the Court but that would be very difficult.
- The screen fades more, notably while moving from place to place in investigations. This change was also made to the AAO version.
- Fixed a bug in the super presents that I somehow never noticed.
- Added a couple of flashes.

- The four builders now hang around in the background throughout the 5 minute long confrontation. They also disappear one-by-one as Bob is about to breakdown.

The original idea had no particular crime, you were just solving puzzles in search of Killian.

Act 1: Welcome to Bell Island
The first part was just Argus running around the island. The idea was to have him join a school so he could get help getting into a forest. To do this, he needed money, as well as a group of friends to go on the tour. There were three boys, The Lads, willing to go if he did something for them.
Fortunately, there was this "Spatula of Fortune" game at the gambling club, run by Benjamin Mendax (the spatula man from Acquittal.) Argus would abuse the obviously rigged game to win his money. To do this, he would go back to Camille's ship and take a compass from it - but to do this, he would need a knife to open a crate.
Fortunately, one of The Lads at the school had an uncle arrested for murder recently, so Argus would sneak into the police department and steal the murder weapon from the evidence room.
To distract the police, he'd use a wind-up toy in the nearby toy store to "shoplift" it. The owner would raise the alarm, the single policeman there would come to the store to investigate,
Argus would sneak in. The mastermind!
Once he got into the forest, he'd go through the Lost Woods until he found a haunted house he'd heard to be associated with Killian. This chapter was pretty much the result of me having just finished replaying the entire Monkey Island series (Escape can kill itself lel).

Act 2: The Locked-Off Goal
The owner of the house, _____ Tour would then send Argus around the house because the place was being haunted. She gave him a list of mysterious activities that had been happening and Argus would have to replicate each of them to show that they may not necessarily be the result of paranormal activity. While he's doing this, he'd find a locked door that, when looking through the keyhole, he'd find a dead body inside - one that's wearing a medal. Once he completed his task, he'd have full access to the entire house as a reward. He'd then unlock the door, and go to get the body. Before he can get it, though, a ghost comes and takes it from him - the ghost of Killian, who is the house owner's brother. The ghost vanishes, then Camille bursts into the house with a bunch of policemen. He's surprised to see Argus, obviously, but he's unable to do anything as the Bell policemen suddenly arrest him.This part was inspired by that one chapter of Layton's Mystery Journey - I wasn't particularly happy with that case's solution despite having a good setup.

Act 3: ARGUS HAKAN ESCAPS FROM PRISOOOOOOON!
If it's not obvious by the name, this part was inspired by Damon Gant Escaps From Prison. Argus is taken to Bell Court where Miles Edgeworth shows up as the prosecutor. It turns out Argus isn't actually accused of killing Killian - actually, the police came after him in the first place because of his illegal gambling in part 1. However, it's not long before the charges get more serious - when they searched his pockets after arresting him, they find the knife he stole from the police department. Because of this, Argus is charged with the murder and thrown in prison. From there, he has to escape using only some random shit he finds in the walls of his cell, the storage room, the cafeteria, and cryptic advice from his cell neighbor, Damon Gant.

Act 4: IDK never named it
Argus escapes from prison by night time, coming out into the forest. He notices something strange at the top of the island's bell tower and heads there. He rings the bell and there's Killian inside it, waiting for him. Argus manages to get past him, though, and escapes the tower. He then runs to the nearest building he can find before the ghost can murder him. He gets cornered, but turns on the light to reveal that they're actually in the courtroom, and everyone's still there. This stresses Killian out because, according to a book Argus uses for one of the parts in Act 2, this kind of attention is pretty unhealthy for ghosts. In fact there's so many people there that Killian vanishes, leaving the medal behind. Argus recovers it, Camille shows up and clears his name of the murder, they set sail for home.
...yeah it becomes a mess at the end, lol.

-There's now an actual crime being focused on. Argus will need to figure this crime out if he's going to get the medal back.
-Camille is actually in this case doing stuff now.
-There's no trial, it's all investigation.
-There's no escapping from prison or ghost hunts or anything like that. Shame. Maybe I'll do the old idea some other time.
-There should be major characters now, the suspects for the crime.

Could this be right, or is Argus on his way to a Brain Penalty?
