Level 7

Le Serpent Rouge

*Note: This is my outcome and others may experience a different one.

After leaving the Café' Metro head back to Janice, along the way where we have found cash many times in the corner is another wad of cash to be taken. As Lara goes to grab it Kurtis gets on his bike and takes off into the Parisian sunset. Nothing like French Roast to wake you right up again. Go to the back of Le Serpent Rouge and enter the building you'll encounter a baddie in the office nearby.

Take him out with some kicks or use your weapons to take him out, then scoop up the snacks and goodies on the desk he won't be needing them anymore. Leave the office and look for a switch on the wall.

It turns out the lights and you could have used it to make things stealthier with the baddie before, but I just saw him and wasted him right away. Go down the end of the hall and you'll enter the club. Baddies are inside waiting to shoot you dead. You'll have to face them eventually but for now we want to cause a slight diversion first.

Activate your stealth mode and hug the wall left and sneak up the stairs. Grab the record on the turntable and then turn around and turn on the switch near the stairs you came up. Taking the record will give us music with our flashing lights we just turned on.

*Baddies that are wasted by Lara disappear and leave their weapon behind always look for one and add it to your arsenal.

No time to waste a baddie that is at the stairs hurry and take him out quickly. Another baddie is out there also do the same to him as you did to his partner. Walk around the stage you'll find a goodie grab the bandages and head over to the bar. Grab the goodies on both sides of the counter two on the back and the bottle on the front. Now look for a switch at the entrance of the bartenders area it activates a dumb waiter throw the switch.

Down comes some V-Packers Cartridges take them both then leave the bar area. Head for the stairs but get ready for a baddie at the top. Walk around the catwalk upstairs to a movable block. You have to push or pull it towards the railing and line it up as close as possible to the lighting rig above, Jump and pull yourself up then walk to the centre of the room. Some rigging collapses in front of us. Jump to the catwalk on the other side.

Go to the right hand corner and there is a health pack. You'll encounter 2 baddies take them down then look for an opening in the railing of the catwalk. Go to the edge and wait for the lighting rig to be at its lowest point and jump towards it. Don't have a heavy hand on the left stick or you may overshoot the mark. Once on the rigging take another leap to the other side of the rigging and turn left. You'll see a part of the rigging you can climb onto. Climb up and shimmy right and climb to the top of the rigging.

Across the way from here we can see a green cat walk on the other side. We have to make a jump from where we are to the other side of the rigging. Turn around and look ahead and jump to the ledge across the way. Turn left and climb the ladder and left to the walkway. Turn around and look at a box on the rigging.

Take note of that box because that where we have to come back to get Pierre's Item. Turn around and to the left you see a slide. Slide down and hit the jump button the way down to jump to the ledge on the other side. A short jump over the gap and forward to the end where some more rigging is with a pipe resting above it. Jump to the rigging and shimmy left past the pipes and pull yourself up. From here turn left and jump down to the green catwalk near a control room door. Lara does not have the strength to open the door right now but she will after you kick the catwalk to bring it down so we can walk on it later.

Now kick in the control room door and you'll find a panel with Left and right switches. Hit the left switches twice and the right switches once. This will line up our light that Pierre said was the only one broken. Now we leave the control room and head across the catwalk Lara's so graciously kicked down for us.

Go to the end to the ladder again and back to the rigging with the box once again. If you threw the switches correctly you'll find Pierre's Trinket Box. Return to the ladder and back to the control room where you'll encounter a baddie. Take his weapon after and a Ticket Office Key that is on the floor.

Before we exit climb down the ladder and grab a snack of chocolate. Climb back up and exit through the door. Make your way down to the street level by taking the ladder, and then drop from a small opening and then a flight of stairs. Through an opening and drop to the street. We are now finished with Le Serpent Rouge and need to find a manhole cover for the Metro Tunnels.

Note: Once in the manhole it says Bouchard's Hideout. We are in the right place though so don't worry.
