"Let's get started, this farce of a trial."

- Servants

Capriccio Farce is a song released as part of Evils Court on September 2, 2011 and later posted on Niconico Douage by Akuno-P on October 29, 2011. It is the seventh song in the Clockwork Lullaby Series, depicting a meeting between the inhabitants of Evil's Theater.

Plot
The awakened vessels of sin all meet in a ruined theater to start a trial. The Master of the Court leads the trial, discussing that they need to find the missing sin, and asks Ma its location. Ma states she doesn't know its whereabouts either, but she fears that it might be in "that girl's hand". GEAR believes that there will be nothing left after the vessels are united, and the Master of the Graveyard taunts him that he is powerless to do anything.

Next, the Master of the Court instructs Gammon Octo to recount the events that led him to the forest. He mentions that he entered the forest looking for the Venom Sword in order to undo a terrible curse on his body, but was captured by the Master of the Graveyard and her servants. The Master of the Court trials him and sentences him to death, but was saved by the Waiter who wanted him for chores, and became the "Gardener". A lullaby is sung by Irregular before the final chorus. It is mentioned how a lonely man, before he died, constructed this theater in the forest. But it is unknown if the Utopia he dreamed of for him and his daughter will succeed.

Conceptualization and Origin

 * The song's title refers to the Director Doll's whimsical and unnecessary treatment of their meeting as a "trial".
 * "Capriccio", meaning "Whim" in Italian, is the name of the last opera composed by Richard Strauss, tying to the song's placement within the final years of the Evillious Chronicles; like the opera, the song also features ten characters.
 * A farce is a light dramatic work in which higly improbable plot situations, exaggerated characters, and often slastick elements are used for humorous effect; as a double meaning, it also refers to ludicrous, often frustrating mockeries of a situation or event.

Curiosities

 * In the Evils Court booklet, Gammon expresses frustration at not just having an ordinary meeting.
 * The Evils Court crossfade lists the event as a mockery of justice they called "Getting Started".
 * During each verse, a dialogue box appears to portray the lyrics and, during each song intermission, a list of profiles appears for the characters involved, describing their actions and character; the skin utilized for the dialogues and profiles are a parody to the Ace Attorney games.
 * The song makes a brief reference to the Seven Deadly Sins Series, beginning with "さあ..." (Now/Let's...), the signature phrase beginning all song in the series.
 * Each character is accompanied by an object in the background, representing their domain and/or role in the theater or (in the case of Master of the Hellish Yard) Hell.
 * The last verse the characters sing are ordered by their individual Vocaloid's release date.
 * In Evils Court, the song is preceded by an instrumental titled "5 Minutes Before Court", utilizing a similar tune to Capriccio Farce, albeit much slower and with different instruments.
