#I will elaborate on Turnabout Farewells specifically someday

I have a rough idea of a hypothetical "Apollo Justice 2: Truth and Consequences" - That takes place one year after Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney.
There are five cases in total, with one flashback case about Apollo's past and how he met Kristoph Gavin - a "where I started, and here I am now" tutorial case.
Along with solving cases with Trucy (and a few of the witnesses returning, like Wocky Kitaki and Vera Misham) - We have Klavier Gavin serve as Apollo's opposing counsel, in every case except the finale.
In the background we have...
The fallout of Kristoph's first arrest in Turnabout Trump, as well as his indictment in Turnabout Succession, and what that means for Klavier sharing the same last name
Phoenix Wright studying to become a lawyer again, so he's more out of focus but gives Apollo advice every once in a while
Another case involving Lamirior, and the possibility of her telling Trucy and Apollo the most important secret of all
And Apollo just gaining more life and professional experience his second year as a lawyer
It all comes together in the finale case, Turnabout Farewells, where Klavier is framed for murder and Apollo must defend him in court. He faces off against Erik van Zieks, The Crusading Prosecutor (descendant of Barok van Zieks, Reaper of the Bailey) - who's earned a reputation in Europe and then Japanifornia for aggressively going after those involved in the law who are accused of breaking it.
The stakes are higher than ever, because if Apollo loses, Klavier will be deported and face another trial in Germany, where Apollo has no chance of helping him.
It's a hard fought battle, but Apollo finally wins. Klavier is in tears from gratitude and hugs both Trucy and Apollo, Erik takes the loss gracefully and calls Apollo a worthy opponent, while Ema and Phoenix give their congratulations.
The ending is on a positive note, with Apollo being more confident than before and Klavier releasing a new single inspired by his time in the defendant's chair, titled "One Phone Call" (referring to the call he made to Apollo the night before he even agreed to defend him.)
