Find Them Switches (Part 1)

Baseball Card

In the color room, go to the southwest corner and walk through the trees. Look left to find a Baseball Card sitting on a crate.

Newspaper & Optional Clue

Now pass through the door in the northwest corner to enter a room that looks like Jack's office. There is a Newspaper on the desk. You will also secure an Optional Clue when you collect it.

Schematic

Head into the bathroom and kick the crate to clear a vent. Go through the vent and drop into the swamp. Approach the wooden slats on the wall in the southwest corner to cause some enemies to break through it. Pass through the hole to find a Schematic on the wall.

Continue following the path to climb to the dining area at the top of the room. Shoot the tree trunk that is suspended from the ceiling to drop it. Then cross the trunk, approach the metal gate, and look right to find a vent. Crawl through the vent and use the scaffolding to reach a courtroom.

Find the Second Switch

Baseball Card

Go through the door on the south side of the room and interact with the cactus. Pass through the opening in the wall and descend into the basement. This area will start to fill with water once the enemies are defeated. When it does, swim to the southwest corner of the room to find a Baseball Card in an underwater refrigerator.

Newspaper

Get out of the water and follow the main path, using Wall Jump to get onto the fan. Before you use Tail-a-Choppa, look in the water behind the fan. There is a Newspaper on a board next to the back wall.

Schematic

Now Tail-a-Choppa on the fan to ride up to a room and stand on the circular button you find there. Pass through the gate that opens and approach the painting on the next room's far wall. When the painting falls, enter the room that is beyond it and pass through the vent on your left. Tailpick the safe in the vent to get a Schematic.

Leave the vent and head to the side of the room across from where the large painting was. Destroy the barrel next to the papers on the ground to reveal a button. Stand on it to open the gate and head forward along the main path to reach wooden scaffolding that leads to the cactus.

Defeat The Beast Fatale

Schematic

Interact with the cactus and do battle with the Beast Fatale. When she is defeated, go to the northwest corner of the room to find a Schematic on the ground next to a lion shield. Then pass through the Warp-Pipe in the southwest corner of the room and flip the switch.

Defeat Reginald Shingler

Schematic

Fall to the ground in the color room and fight Reginald Shingler, using the set pieces to block his shots. After you defeat the boss in hand-to-hand combat, pass through the Warp-Pipe on the southwest side of the room. Look at the desk on your right to find a Schematic.
