"Unusual Circumstances - A SiIvaGunner Christmas Comeback Crisis Side Story" is a high quality lore video and a side story for The SilvaGunner Christmas Comeback Crisis.

Like "The Lost Rip", it is a Nutshackwoodman34 story, and it is based on the real-life termination and return of the SiIvaGunner channel, although actions taken in the YouTube copyright enforcement system are dramatized as though they were actually a civil lawsuit.

Plot summary

The SiIvaGunner channel is being sued by Sony Entertainment Music Japan and faces the risk of being terminated. Since SiIva is asleep, Wood Man has to represent him at the trial, which is being held in Grandiose City Court.

Woodman takes a seat at the defendant's table and notices that his opponent, Sony, has none other than Phoenix Wright as their lawyer. Wood Man begins to sweat as the harsh Judge Jerome takes his place in the courtroom.

The court goes into session. Phoenix Wright gives his opening statement, saying that his client claims that SiIvaGunner has used music that infringes on Sony's copyright, meaning that the videos containing said copyrighted material should be removed, and SiIva's YouTube channel should be terminated. Wood Man's lawyer, John Notwoodman, gives his own opening statement, which maintains that SiIvaGunner's use of Sony's material was in complete compliance with fair use, as Wood Man mysteriously disappears.

Wright presents all 7 rips containing Sony's music as his first piece of evidence, then calls Mr. YouTube to the stand as his first witness. Wright determines that YouTube's automated copyright detection system went off when on hearing Sony's music in the 7 rips, and that anyone who violates copyright so egregiously shouldn't have a place on YouTube's platform. After YouTube returns to their seat, Wright calls Bane to the stand as his next witness, but Notwoodman interrupts and tells the Judge that they shouldn't be allowed to use a former collaborator with SiIva against him. Judge Jerome agrees immediately, which Wright reluctantly complies with.

Wright then calls his final witness to the stand, the Grinch. As a proud stakeholder in Sony Entertainment, The Grinch claims to own the songs used in the rips, and that the rips infringe on his and Sony's copyright. Wright is about to dismiss the Grinch, but Notwoodman says that it's his turn to have witnesses, the first of which will be the Grinch. The Judge says he'll allow it after lunch break. Wright objects, saying that Notwoodman skipped cross examination, but Judge Jerome takes Notwoodman's side.

After lunch break, the trial resumes. John Notwoodman gets The Grinch to admit that during his channel takeover, he had full jurisdiction over the videos being uploaded, meaning that he allowed Sony's songs to appear on the channel. Judge Jerome wants to make a ruling, but by law John Notwoodman needs at least two more witnesses. Notwoodman calls Count Cannoli to the stand, but he accomplishes nothing before being shot by Mr Rental. Notwoodman then calls Nozomi Tojo to the stand, who gives a very moving speech before taking her seat. After a good five minutes, Notwoodman reveals his final witness: another Jerome.

The Jury give their final verdict: not guilty. Judge Jerome agrees with this verdict, to which Wright completely loses it, yelling that if he can't use Bane then Notwoodman shouldn't be allowed to use the Grinch, then punches Notwoodman and rips off his mustache while being arrested for contempt of court.

Wood Man and Bane decides to go get some victory lunch. The Grinch asks if he can join them, but Wood Man flips him off and walks off with Bane.

[8:00 AM]

Phoenix presents his first evidence and examination: All 7 rips with Sony’s music as a source.
The audience laughs at the funny 7. Judge Jerome brings order to the court.
Phoenix says that these rips obviously violate Sony’s copyright by making use of their music in the videos. He then calls his first witness to the stand: YouTube.

["Most Generic YouTube Song Ever" by Princess Sylvysprit (specifically the part where "Carefree" by Kevin MacLeod has its melody changed to "Meet the Flintstones") plays in the background.]
Phoenix Wright: Hello Mr. YouTube. You hosted the videos which I have just shown to the Court, correct?

Mr. YouTube: Yes, this is correct.

Phoenix Wright: And you heard the use of my client's music in them, correct?

Mr. YouTube: Yes, this is correct.

Phoenix Wright: Then surely, as a robot, your automated copyright detection system must have gone off... Right?

Mr. YouTube: Yes, this is correct.

Phoenix Wright: And anyone who violates copyright so egregiously should not have any place on your platform, right?

Mr. YouTube: Yes, this is correct.

Phoenix Wright: Thank you Mr. Youtube. You may have a seat.

Mr. YouTube: beep. boop.

Narration: YouTube returns to their seat.
Wright calls his second witness to the stand: Bane.

["Snake Eater" from Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater plays in the background.]
Judge Jerome tells Bane he's a big guy.

Bane: For you.

Phoenix Wright: Mr. Bane, is it true that you've worked with my opponent in the past?

Bane: Yes, this is true.

Phoenix Wright: So surely, you're familiar with their work.

Bane: I am.

Phoenix Wright: Within his work have you ever heard any music owned by Sony Entertainment Music Japan?

Bane: I believe I have.

John Notwoodman: [With Phoenix Wright "Objection!" bubble] Objection!

Phoenix Wright: Your honor you can't be agreeing with him!! There is no reason for Mr. Bane not to be able to testify against the defendant!

Narration: Judge Jerome tells Wright to know his place in the Court and take a seat.

Phoenix Wright: Y-Yes, your honor.

Narration: Wright calls his final witness to the stand: The Grinch.

[The instrumental to "You're A Mean One, Mr. Grinch" by Jordan Smith plays in the background.]
A mean green man with termites in his smile walked to the stand. Every step he took was like a million years of sorrow. This man was a bad banana with a greasy yellow peel. Not even a minion would touch that banana.

Phoenix Wright: Mr Grinch, lovely to see you here today.

The Grinch: Likewise Mr. Wright.

Phoenix Wright: Now, Mr. Grinch, you are a proud stakeholder in Sony Entertainment, correct?

The Grinch: That seems about right, yes. A damn good investment.

Phoenix Wright: And you have heard the videos in question. These are songs you own due to your stakes in this company, correct?

The Grinch: I would have to agree. I own these songs. They're mine.

Phoenix Wright: And using these songs which are your property through our company in an unauthorized video would of course be infringing on your copyrights and ours?

The Grinch: Uh-huh.

Phoenix Wright: Well then, that does it. Your honor I have no more witnesses, Mr. Grinch you are dismissed.

John Notwoodman: [With Phoenix Wright "Not so fast!" bubble] Not so fast!

Narration: Notwoodman pipes up!

["Phoenix Wright ~ Objection! 2001" from Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney plays in the background.]
John Notwoodman: Your honor its my time to have witnesses and I say the grinch is my first one!

Narration: Judge Jerome will allow it, but first, it's lunch time.

Phoenix Wright: You can't do that! You completely skipped the cross examination! This is all wrong!

Narration: Judge Jerome bangs his gavel. Phoenix had better calm down or he would throw out this trial and Phoenix would be tried in contempt of court.
Pheonix quietly takes his seat.
