Now that the backtracking is done, it's time to really get down to the nitty-gritty and travel through Dr. Leo's lab proper.
Laboratory Basement
We have more things to release in the basement: the soul of a cat in the lab, a dining room table with a cat on it, a great door leading to said dining room, a chest of drawers in the dining room.
As you go through this area, you'll be making your way through - and revealing paths for - a maze-like system of pipes you'll be walking across. At least you can't fall off the edges and down into the background.
At the northeast corner is a set of stairs going lower. If the robot maids to the west don't show up, just go down the stairs, go back up and head west. They'll show up again.
Apparently the bulldozer enemies can travel over pits to get to you.
Use the Ice Armor to get past the hot areas that will drain your health. Yes, those fiery areas from the Fire Shrine return in the downstairs area, where you can release the soul of a sleeping cat (along with chairs and a table), and a mouse in the lab.
Not gonna lie, the translucent effect your character has when in the tunnels is pretty nice. You'll need to travel through them to open up a path further into the downstairs area.
You'll eventually release a blue gem that will give you experience and teleport you back upstairs, another great door, as well as some stairs that will take you to the attic of Dr. Leo's house. You'll also release the soul of a town model, which will come into play a little bit later. Also, you'll be able to take a teleporter back to the shrine.
8:17 - Oh hey, it's Beetlejuice.
Dr. Leo's Laboratory
The door in the attic leads to the town model. Don't touch the model yet.
Use the Dream Rod on the sleeping cat. You'll see Dr. Leo for the first time, as well as what happened when one of King Magridd's guards came to his laboratory and summoned him. Dr. Leo knows what evil is behind the King's decision, but the guards do not care and will only do what King Magridd tells them to do. We also find out that Dr. Leo's daughter Lisa is involved in this somewhat, most likely as a hostage.
When the cat wakes up, the cat will tell you that it was hiding under a table the whole time, and gives you a door key.
