Turnabout Storm/Funny

Part 1
"Phoenix: (I feel my masculinity going... going... gone.)"
 * Phoenix completely freaking out right after first seeing Twilight. With so many crossovers and self-inserts around involving characters that either know about Equestria, come prepared for anything, or are used to seeing weird stuff, seeing the reactions and utter surprise of an almost completely regular guy, with no knowledge whatsoever about the place or what inhabits it, is priceless; and said guy being Nick just completes it.
 * The reactions to Phoenix's badge don't get any better in Equestria. And then he's given the Equestrian Attorney Badge...


 * Fluttershy opening up to Phoenix upon learning his name, fully convinced he's an actual phoenix who's almost ready to be reborn, and Twilight encouraging him to play along so she won't clam up again.
 * "Amazing how a kids show got so popular outside its targeted demographic.". You have no idea Phoenix...
 * Phoenix getting more and more agitated with ponies commenting on his hair.

Part 2
"Twilight: Stop whining!
 * After Phoenix gets on Twilight's nerves with his moaning before the trial:

Phoenix: I'm not whining, I'm complaining!"

"Edgeworth: [8-bit version of the MLP theme song plays] This is just like that one episode of Steel Samurai where he meets the Pink Princess! WHEEEEEEEE!!!
 * Phoenix's Imagine Spot of Edgeworth in Equestria.

Phoenix: (Doctor, I'd like the part of my brain responsible for that image lobotomized, please...)"

"Judge: Aren't these ponies just remarkable, Mr. Wright? They have shown me nothing but a good time.
 * Edgeworth on ponyback... This troper did not see that one coming.
 * To be specific he is riding Cheerilee, along side Lyra, and Bon Bon.
 * The sudden appearance of the Judge from the Ace Attorney games.
 * This line makes it even better:

Phoenix: All they've done for me is make fun of my hair..."

"Phoenix: ([...]Maybe a hand pointing an index finger filled with righteous justice! That would be amazing!)"
 * Phoenix's outburst regarding the cloud as decisive evidence, complete with Pursuit ~ Cornered playing in the background, only to get greeted by grasshoppers and then informed that yes, Rainbow totally can move clouds around and make them shoot lightning at will.
 * If you don't actually watch Friendship is Magic, you will likely be having the same reaction and wondering what's with the crickets at the same time as Phoenix, making it even better.
 * Phoenix mocking the idea of a cutie mark, then immediately wondering what his own would be.

"Apple Bloom: CUTIE MARK CRUSADER LAWYERS!!
 * "I knew it! I knew it! There IS a cutie mark for arguin'!"
 * After Phoenix explains to Apple Bloom what a lawyer is, she decides that the next Cutie Mark Crusade will be...

Phoenix: (The future of criminal justice is looking pretty bleak right now...)"

"Judge: Miss Trixie, this is a big oversight! Why is there a ten-minute gap as to when the child saw the lightning bolt?
 * When Phoenix spots the first contradiction in the prosecution's case:

Trixie: I'M THINKING! BE QUIET!

Judge: Oh... o-okay..."

"Apple Bloom: OBJECTION! HOLD IT! *checks for cutie mark* Aw, nothing..."
 * After Apple Bloom is excused:

"Rainbow Dash: My life is ruined!"
 * Trixie says that she has some new evidence and pulls out an envelope. Rainbow Dash recognizes the envelope and begs her not to show it, making everyone think it is decisive evidence that will get Rainbow guilty instantly. Trixie opens the envelope and...it turns out to be embarrassing photos of Rainbow Dash.
 * Not to mention the fact that the viewers never get to see exactly what the photos are.
 * Rainbow's reaction face is priceless (it's from the Mysterious Mare Do Well schooling her at the construction site).

"Phoenix: Feeding chickens... at night...?
 * Nick's complete annoyance at him having to do the prosecution's and judge's questions and requests to Fluttershy. His annoyed monotone and expression are what makes it.
 * During Fluttershy's cross examination:

Fluttershy: Midnight snack! I couldn't send them to bed without one, what if they starved to death while they were sleeping?

Judge: Oh my! I never realized the importance of midnight snacking!

Twilight: That's our naive Fluttershy...

Phoenix: (And that's my clueless Judge...)"

"Fluttershy: I yelled so loud, at the top of my lungs, like this... *deep breath* Rainbow Dash, what's wrong!?

Phoenix: Yeah... I haven't the faintest idea how she didn't hear that..."

"Phoenix: It's very clear this witness is afraid of lightning! (And... everything for that matter.)"

Part 3 - Phoenix
"Phoenix: MY NAME IS PHOENIX WRIGHT AND I'M FINE! MY NAME IS PHOENIX WRIGHT AND I'M FINE! MY NAME IS PHOENIX WRIGHT AND I'M FINE!"
 * The intro, which shows Phoenix on the day before his first trial.

"Rainbow: IT'S A HOBBY, ALRIGHT!? I BET YOU HAVE SKELETONS IN YOUR CLOSET TOO, MR. 20-SOMETHING WHO PLAYS WITH TOYS!"
 * Rainbow Dash and Applejack death-glaring Phoenix for saying he's always "Wright".
 * When Phoenix asks Rainbow about those... pictures. Bonus points for her reaction sounding like something directed at a certain Periphery Demographic.

"Phoenix: (I feel like sobbing to myself in a dark corner right now...)"
 * The guard ponies tearfully begging Phoenix to take Pinkie Pie away.
 * Pinkie explaining Phoenix how to make cupcakes. Motor Mouth mode.
 * Pinkie Pie's blank stare at Phoenix's crappy jokes, followed by her cracking up at how girly his Equestria Attorney Badge is.

"Phoenix: P-Pinkie! Is your brain the size of chewed bubble gum!?"
 * The return of Ace Attorney's ladders vs. stepladders gag with Phoenix and Pinkie, which somehow manages to deviate into a freaking Cupcakes reference.
 * Pinkie digging Phoenix and herself deeper and deeper with Sonata with her comments. She even manages to make Phoenix snap!

"Phoenix: (I can't stop looking into those entracing eyes... Can she see all around her? Maybe she can see through the very fabric of time and space!)"
 * Pinkie's Wob Niar theory, and all the times it gets brought up again.
 * Phoenix meeting Derpy.

"Phoenix: [absolutely terrified] (I think I'm gonna need to change my pants now...)"
 * Derpy's poem. One could just hear the cheering bronies.
 * Even better: the actress actually did record herself saying "bitch" and put up her own video of it, which was promptly favorited by the series creator.
 * Pinkie suggesting Phoenix to go naked to court instead of worrying about his ripped suit, and his ensuing reaction.
 * Rarity taking note of Phoenix's hair causing him to say to tell to just make fun of it and get it out of her system, even giving her some ammunition. Then Rarity subverts the gag by loving the way it's done.
 * Rarity's retelling of her experience at the post office, which has a single pen...
 * And note that one of her faces during it is actually Fluttershy's "YOU'RE GOING TO LOVE ME!" expression.
 * Basically, Phoenix's reaction to her rant summarizes everything:

"Phoenix: (Freud would have a field day with Pinkie Pie.)"
 * Pinkie Pie reading the script to discover where to go next, much to Phoenix's confusion and flabbergast.
 * Phoenix mistaking Applejack for Lotta Hart.
 * Phoenix's response to Pinkie's dream.

"Phoenix: (No comment...)"
 * Pinkie Pie saying Phoenix represents the element of Hair Gel, and his response.

"Phoenix: (A scolding? From him? What did he do, "Eeyup" her into submission?)"
 * Phoenix commenting on Big Mac's massive vocabulary.


 * Applejack calling Trixie an attention horse.
 * Phoenix meeting Owlolysius and getting stuck in the same cycle Spike went through.
 * Spike telling Phoenix what a total nerd Twilight is... just as she walks into the room.
