Jailer Bagel Cop

**Jailer Bagel Cop** (usually referred to as just **Bagel Cop**) is an original character in Press Button n' Talk's *Ace Attorney* playthrough based on a nameless background character. He is voiced by Alex and SungWon in a low voice.

The background character in question is the guard who is always seen standing watch by the door to the detention center. He is portrayed as an easygoing fellow who is very supportive and helpful. His primary character trait is a strong love for all things bagel related. He sometimes provides candid commentary on what's going on or points out things that characters shouldn't be saying out loud. One other gag associated with him is how he attempts to describe Lana Skye's facial expressions to Phoenix when she is turned away from him.

Other cops who have been seen standing guard in other scenes have been given similar titles based around other food and beverage products. One of them, Waffle Cop, is known for being particularly violent.

### Appearances:

#### Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney

Bagel Cop first appears in the case Turnabout Sisters, specifically in Episode 5, which is the first time the detention center is seen. This is also the first time he is referred to by name. When Phoenix reenters the detention center later, he reports that he ate a bagel while Phoenix was gone. When Miss May starts getting very defensive, Phoenix comments that she is "scaring bagel cop", which Bagel Cop agrees with, so Miss May apologizes. Later, during a dramatic moment, he turns the lights in the detention center off, much to Phoenix's displeasure. Later, Maya and Phoenix wonder why Bagel Cop is still standing on Maya's side of the detention center now that Phoenix is the one being detained.

Bagel Cop's only vocalized appearance in Turnabout Samurai occurs in Episode 23. Phoenix considers offering Cody Hackins a bagel from Bagel Cop as a trade for his testimony. Bagel Cop says that he only has one bagel left, made from his mother's recipe, but that if the kid really wants it he would be willing to part with it. When Phoenix leaves the detention center, Bagel Cop gives him the last remaining bagel for the road.

In the first episode of Turnabout Goodbyes, Episode 34, Phoenix asks Bagel Cop why Edgeworth refuses to talk to him and Maya. Bagel Cop says he doesn't know, and that Edgeworth is just kind of shy. He also says that he offered Edgeworth a bagel, but he wasn't hungry and so he didn't eat it. Later, Phoenix asks if Bagel Cop thinks that Edgeworth committed the murder, to which Bagel Cop replies that he doesn't know because he only works there, he is not involved in the case and is not technically supposed to listen to the things people say in the detention center. He says that he takes his job as both a Bagel Cop and a Bagel Connoisseur very seriously. Later, Phoenix tries to get Bagel Cop to ask Edgworth to come out from hiding under the table, but to no avail. SungWon suggests cracking and frying an egg on Edgeworth's head while Bagel Cop holds him down, but Bagel Cop says he doesn't want to do that. During an exchange with Phoenix, Bagel Cop hypothesizes that Edgeworth "totally did it", in reference to the murder of Robert Hammond, and Edgeworth tells him to shut his mouth and stay out of it. This seems out of character for the typically mild-mannered Bagel Cop, but it's possible that he was just having a bad day. When Phoenix and Maya walk through the empty detention center, Bagel Cop asks if they would like to talk to him (since there's no defendant present) but they very rudely ignore him. Bagel Cop comments that this sort of thing has been happening to him ever since grade school, and he doesn't understand why. Before the last day of the trial, Maya says that she patted Bagel Cop on the back and shocked him (because she was still carrying static from the run-in with Von Karma's stun gun) and he says that he did not appreciate it one bit because it made him spit out his bagel. That bagel was his lunch and now he is very hungry.

#### Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney- Justice for All

Bagel Cop first appears in Episode 10, where Alex and SungWon are both very excited to see him and encourage the audience to applaud. They refer to him as "The B-Man" but he asks them not to call him that because people used to call him that in school and it felt really bad. Later, he confides in Phoenix that he always has nightmares about his teeth falling out, which is traumatizing because it's very hard to eat bagels with no teeth. Later, when Maya blames herself for killing Dr. Grey, Bagel Cop comments that she probably shouldn't say stuff like that while he's there. Bagel Cop tells Phoenix that he's sure he'll come up with some way to defend Maya, just like he always does. Phoenix thanks him, but still isn't sure about his chances. Bagel Cop continuously tries to insert himself into Mia and Phoenix's conversation, much to their annoyance. During the first day in court, the Charlie Brown Adults are irritated due to the fact that Bagel Cop doesn't appear in the picture taken at the Detention Center.

#### Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth

Bagel Cop is seen in Episode 51, helping investigate the scene of the double murder during the Second KG-8 Incident Trial. His only other appearance is during the final episode when Lauren Paups mentions that she met him at the detention center and he gave her a bagel, leading to her being attracted to him. She says that she doesn't think they could ever work because he's too cool for her. Then Bagel Cop appears, saying that he thinks she's cute and might "give her a shot", although she committed a crime and he's not really into that.

#### Family Feud

Bagel Cop makes a cameo appearance in *Family Feud*, Episode 13. When blue cheese is listed as one of the answers for "Name something people put on a bagel.", making Alex, SungWon, and Anne-Marie lose yet another round to the Webers, he appears and testifies that nobody puts blue cheese on their bagels.
