Kay quickly steps into Phoenix's line of vision, spreading her arms wide.]

Dark skies of evening, when no other bird dares take wing...one alone remains all-seeing! Witness the arrival of the modern-day Robin Hood in Empatheias!

[Phoenix grins brightly, and his badge shines with pride. Now that's Kay Faraday!]

What?! [He acts shocked.] Someone like that... has actually made it here to Empatheias?!

You bet! Maybe...maybe Empatheias needs a Great Thief! And that's why I'm here!

Just what the doctor ordered! I don't know what we'd do without you... With you here, things might definitely start turning around!

And once we get back home, if we remember this place, I can't wait to see the look on Edgeworth's face when we tell him about this adventure!

[He may be focusing on angles that will appeal to Kay.]

I'll be there to take a picture of it!

[Good call, Phoenix. Kay is always all for the many silly faces of Miles Edgeworth.]

Great! I knew that I could count on you, Kay! And you know... if you need any help at all around here, you can count on me, too.

Thanks, Mr. Wright. You might even say...you're the wright man for the job!

[He laughs at that.]

Thanks. It's good to hear that! You know, I think that you'll do just oKay here!

I will...so long as I don't turn into the crying mess you saw earlier.

[She scratches her head sheepishly.]

Hey, that's nothing to be ashamed of. [He says reassuringly.] I know this place can be pretty overwhelming at first. ...And it can play tricks with your emotions, too. It's okay to cry sometimes.

But I'm glad to see the energetic and determined Kay that I know right now!

Yeah, I caused a bit of a wind when I first got here. But one moment I was buying food, the next moment I started crying all over the place.

[Kay frowns in thought.]

Wait. So... When you got here, you felt normal? [He pauses thoughtfully. Here he had assumed that she had just taken being lost in another world worse than he had expected of her.]

That sadness you felt - did it feel very... abrupt?

It did! Like...suddenly I felt hopeless and lonely and it consumed me! It was like...it stole my cheerful assistant personality!

...That explains it.

Kay, I think that was just something you ate.

Wait, what? [She blinks.] I bought a chocolate doughnut...

...Are all doughnuts like that?!

No... I've had doughnuts not too long ago, and I know that I didn't feel like that.

Sometimes it's only at certain times that food has odd emotional effects like that. ...And especially when they're advertised as something special.

You mean...the doughnut was the culprit?!

What a plot twist.

...I... I guess so. [He admits sheepishly, and then he thinks to add:]

...Not to be confused with a glazed twist.

I hope you're talking about normal glazed twists, not...emotion-altering glazed twists.

Of course! That's the only type I'd like to consider the existence of.
