The Trial of Juanaflipa happened on April 12, 2023 at 3:30 PST. It was against ElMariana over the death of his and Slimecicle's child, JuanaFlippa.
Background
On April 9, 2023, JuanaFlippa was killed by Mariana due to a misclick. Mariana returned from being AFK and clicked on Juana's bed, destroying it, which causes a permanent death. This put JuanaFlippa's life status into question.
Slimecicle witnesses JuanaFlippa’s second canonical death and says that he is going to divorce and kill Mariana and that he plans to kill all of the eggs so they’d have to reset the egg event. Slime's rampage was stopped after he was repeatedly killed by other players and then talked to so that he would see reason. Cucurucho showed up, and the players suggested holding a trial to determine if JuanaFlippa would be revived. Cucurucho allowed it, and scheduled the event to take place on April 12nd.
Before the trial, Slimecicle, in an act of presumable desperation, ended up hiring JaidenAnimations, Foolish, BadBoyHalo, FitMC and Quackity as his lawyers. ElMariana hired Roier as his lawyer. While Quackity spoke to other players before the trial, Jaiden comforted Tilín, who was under the impression that her father didn't love her anymore.

The Trial
The trial commences under the court of law, with representatives from both the Prosecution and Defense introducing themselves to the stand. Surprisingly, all five of Charlie's lawyers discover that there is more than one representative, but they quickly play it off and agree to work together.
In his defense, Charlie argues that the willingness of everyone to defend him should be sufficient to prove the strength of the Prosecution's case. Quackity reinforces Charlie's point and delivers the opening statement, outlining three objectives the Prosecution aims to achieve during the hearing:
- To revive JuanaFlippa.
- To grant Charlie complete custody over JuanaFlippa in the divorce.
- To sacrifice ElMariana's soul to Satan in exchange for JuanaFlippa's revival.
Jaiden, Charlie's second lawyer, delivers a powerful statement during the hearing. The full transcription of his statement is as follows:
"This case goes beyond winning custody or dealing with divorce. It is about seeking justice for an innocent egg named JuanaFlippa. Despite being born into a broken home, JuanaFlippa deserves a chance at life, just like any other child."
"Today, we stand before you, Your Honour, to rectify the wrongs done to a defenseless egg that simply desired love. My client, el Backflipo, is a good parent who provided for JuanaFlippa and was always there for her. Despite the family's challenging circumstances, he did everything within his power to give JuanaFlippa the best he could. In this case, we will demonstrate how the Defendant, Mariana, failed as a parent and a partner, exerted a negative influence on JuanaFlippa, and displayed a complete lack of care for her well-being. We will present evidence and witnesses to support these claims. We believe that in a fit of rage upon realizing he couldn't escape el Backflipo's custody papers, the Defendant plotted to gain enough trust to be alone with JuanaFlippa and then took her life."
"All El Backflipo ever wanted was to provide JuanaFlippa with the best childhood possible. He wants to rectify the wrongs committed by Mariana. We request that, after considering all the evidence, you find the defendant GUILTY of murder and order his soul to be SACRIFICED in the resurrection of JuanaFlippa. Thank you."
Roier then argues in good faith that Mariana is a good person based on their shared history and asserts that he would never intentionally harm his daughter. The Defense pleads for a manslaughter charge, suggesting that JuanaFlippa's death was a result of a misclick. However, Jaiden (sent by Charlie) presents new photo evidence that tarnishes Mariana's image by revealing an affair between him and Foolish. Foolish becomes actively against the Prosecution and is subsequently fired during recess. The photo evidence counters the Defense's claims of Mariana being a good partner. Roier retaliates again by presenting new photo evidence that allegedly implicates one of Charlie's lawyers, Quackity, in an affair with multiple men (Luzu and Wilbur Soot). Jaiden objects, stating that the item is not relevant to the JuanaFlippa case. The objection is accepted.
After getting nowhere, Roier attempts to demonstrate the fragility of the egg beds, emphasizing how easily they can be destroyed with a single click. The court is challenged to review the quality of egg beds based on previous cases of murder. The Judge then overrules this statement, deeming it irrelevant to the JuanaFlippa case. However, the Judge acknowledges that ElMariana's misclick leading to JuanaFlippa's death was accidental.
Despite the ruling, BBH, the 3rd lawyer from the Prosecution, argues about the fragility of the eggs, showing Mariana's reckless disregard. Video evidence, wire-tapped by Charlie, depicting the night of the murder is presented. Roier then counters, bringing awareness to the fact that the eggs are birthed by a power dragon, making them tougher.
The Judge presents an audio file containing a conversation between Mariana and JuanaFlippa. Due to technical difficulties with the transcription, Quackity 'translates' the audio, stating, "Daughter, I'm going to be absent for a long time, so you need to start eating dirt to strengthen your defenses and ensure you don't die quickly. Motherfucker." Roier objects, claiming that Mariana was joking and being lighthearted.
The Judge declares a recess to deliberate on the verdict.
After Recess
During recess, there is an unsuccessful assassination attempt on Charlie, but it doesn't affect the proceedings.
TikTok edits are submitted as evidence, aiming to leverage Mariana's image and prove that he is a good father to JuanaFlippa. To counter this, more photo evidence of Mariana's affair with Foolish is presented by the Judge. Mariana objects himself, stating that it has nothing to do with the murder but finds it amusing. Video evidence of the murder is brought up again. The Defense argues that Mariana destroyed a decoy of JuanaFlippa, not the real JuanaFlippa. However, this argument was easily debunked due to JuanaFlippa's current absence.
Charlie makes a passionate argument, transcribed as follows:
"And he (lil Satan) told me that he would burn my family to the ground if I told you this, but I don't have a family left to burn. SATAN TOLD ME THAT IF I KILLED PHIL'S EGG, HE'D GIVE FLIPPA A GUN TO PROTECT HERSELF, AND THIS IS THAT PHOTO RIGHT THERE OF BABY'S FIRST TOY, IN A CIRCLE OF FIRE AS WE MADE AN ACCIDENTAL PACT WITH THE DEVIL. AND HE SAID HE WOULD KILL MY DAUGHTER IF I DIDN'T DO AS HE SAYS. I'M SORRY, BUT I WAS DOING WHAT A GOOD PARENT WOULD DO!"
Despite the passion, the Judge disregards the evidence as it is not relevant to JuanaFlippa's murder. The murder of Chayanne (and Charlie's homicidal tendencies) will be addressed in a different trial. Fit, representing the Prosecution, attempts to bribe the court with four netherite ingots. However, it is revealed that the 'netherite' was forged.
After the drama, a verdict was finally reached.
The Veridct
"FINAL VERDICT of today's trial, in the case of JuanaFlippa's death, is that she will be given another chance at life. Both Mariana and Charlie will be sentenced to the QSMP Federal Prison for approximately 10 minutes. The request for a divorce has been denied, and the Flippa family's parents must undergo couples therapy and work together."
Aftermath
JuanaFlippa was revived, but only with one life remaining. She expresses her love for everyone who was present during the trial but also reveals that she had a harrowing experience in Hell. Slimecicle, upon hearing this, suggests that they can still make their newfound family dynamic work. He verifies with ElMariana that he has ended his relationship with his previous girlfriend. With a renewed sense of purpose, Slimecicle returns to the courtroom to reveal the dangerous TNT planted under the court, which could have caused a catastrophic explosion.
Afterwards, he takes ElMariana and JuanaFlippa back to his house, knowing they need rest. Slimecicle presents a turtle as a gift, reminiscent of a previous shared memory from Day 19 when they had engaged in a similar playful interaction with Flippa. Mariana believes that Flippa represents the unity of their newly-formed family, a notion that Charlie accepts and embraces. As the day comes to a close, they tuck Flippa into bed, engaging in heartfelt conversations before eventually doing the Devil's Tango together to celebrate JuanaFlippa's revival.
