- 3Cross the next bridge and defeat Pyro O'Connor on the next platform.
- 4Continue until you reach a large vertical pipe. Hold down the Circle Button to edge around the pipe, then climb the rope on the other side.
- 5Take another trip around the pipe and keep going past the platform to obtain clue #3.
- 6Back up to the platform and jump onto the spinning cog, then step off onto the spinning shaft.

- 10At the other end, knock out Pyro O'Connor and hop onto the furnace doors.
- 11Collect clues #6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, and 14 by hitting the hanging clues with your cane and hitting every door. If a clue falls, collect it from the ground later.
- 12After the last set of doors, jump off, collect any fallen clues, and head through the tunnel.

- 14At the end, defeat Pyro O'Connor and climb the rope beside him.
- 15Defeat Thor McCracken and climb onto the wire ahead.

- 18Run through the tunnel and defeat Thor McCracken at the end.

- If clues fall to the ground, remember to collect them after clearing the immediate area.
