31 Gumshoe (Whoooooop!)
“Gumshoe (Whoooooop!)“
Sung to the theme tune of Disney’s
DuckTales (2017)
[“Stop being such a stick in the mud, Edgeworth!” Phoenix cajoled the unsmiling prosecutor. “You know that I know that you know that I know that you at least owe this much to your subordinate!”]
[“Come on, Mr. Edgeworth!” Maya coaxed, nudging the cravat-wearing man in the ribs. “It’s not like our pal is asking for much in return for saving the day… Just one little theme song to be sung in his honor!”
[“I refuse to partake in such cockamamie nonsense, Miss Fey.” Edgeworth stubbornly folded his arms across his chest, his granite expression resembling one of the stone faces of Mount Rushmore. “I am most grateful to Detective Gumshoe for saving the day by giving you two the metal detector, which ended up convicting Manfred Von Karma. However, I am an esteemed High Prosecutor, hence must maintain the dignity of my office…”]
[Gumshoe simply eyed affixed his superior with the mother of all wounded puppy dog expressions, prompting Edgeworth to finally shut his eyes and heave a long-suffering sigh.]
[“Very well. Perhaps … I can sing the background chorus if it pleases you all…”]
[“Perfect!” Maya chirped, thrusting the karaoke microphone at him. “Nick, Larry and I will do all the main verses… All you need to do in the background is sing ‘Gumshoe… (Whoooooop!)’ alright?”]
[“Whoooooop! Detective Gumshooooe?” Edgeworth looked pained. “I feel so bloody foolish…]
[“Too late, Edgey!” Larry guffawed loudly, clapping the stoic man on the back. “You’ve already agreed to it!”]
[“Also, it’s not ‘Whoooooop! Detective Gumshooooe’, Edgeworth.” Phoenix smirked at his courtroom rival. [“It’s Gumshoe…(Whoooooop!)”]
[“How nice of you to clarify the order, Wright. That’s now much more dignified!”]
[“Let’s rock this place!” Maya cut in, winking at the beaming, scruffy flatfoot in the audience as she grabbed her mike. “Gumshoe, pal, this one’s for you!”]
Life is pure financial strain

But always saves the day!
