In Grodus's throne room, Lord Crump reports his failure to acquire the Crystal Star to Grodus. Grodus suspects the Shadow Sirens might succeed where Crump failed.

Peach enters TEC's room. TEC has finished analyzing data and asks Peach to steal a disk from Grodus's room using an elevator and a specific room with a green light.

Walkthrough

    Enter the room with the green light, which is a lab.

    The potion moves to the left.
  8. 8

  • Ensure you have the correct ingredient order: red, blue, yellow, green.
  • Remember to put your dress back on after becoming visible again.
