| Exit the recording studio and enter the hallway to the right which leads towards Rinkoff's lair. Then all of a sudden you hear "Stop Right There!" You then "turn around" and to your shock, Ellen Folley is standing there with demonic stare towards Karla. This battle is pretty easy as Karla does most of the fighting by stealing Ellen's vocals and lipsynching to them in several music videos while flashing some cleavage. The hallway leading to Rinkoff's lair is lined w/ mirrors, an endless army of mirrors, blinding people to death. The only way to beat this level is satisfy the mirrors hunger by feeding Karla to the mirrors. It is sad to see her go but it is important to proceed to Rinkoff's Lair alone, and who knows she might surface again 30 years later in an off Broadway show. Open the door to Rinkoff’s Lair. The Darkness has you surrounded, the room is full of bodies! Complete corpses hang from the ceiling, and the floor is strewn with ornate boxes, inscribed with alternate verses and crammed full with body parts. There is a large bed opposite you where Rinkoff is sitting. He is holding a large heart that is beating faster than the limits allow (which is actually Jim’s cloned heart, Jim’s heart, as we all know, beats faster than the speed of love). Above the bed is a large iPod mounted to the wall. In the corner of the room is an incredibly large recycling bin. When Rinkoff senses your presence he sucks the life out of the cloned heart and his face begins to swell and morph into a zombie. Looking like this:  He then begins to summon long-lost Steinman demos from the depths of the iPod's memory (iREMEMBER). Before you know it, renegade angels with the power of darkness join forces with the bikers of the round-table and attack you as if it’s their final at bat! You're sure that you stand no chance against Rinkoff’s power, but just as you feel defeat is inevitable, you notice the recycling bin start to shake…. You run over to it and knock it over! To your surprise Jim was stuck inside! Jim obviously is the only one who has the power to defeat Rinkoff. Relieved to be released from the recycling bin, where he’s been trapped since his last blog post on October 26th, he decides to help you defeat Rinkoff so that his songs can once again be released to the public and the Bat Out Of Hell Logo can be finalized! Jim ferverishly grabs balls of crumpled paper out of the recycling bin and throws them at the demos that Steven summoned from the iPod. The demos absorb the crumbled lyric sheets and recycle themselves into “new” Steinman songs. Smoke streams from the stricken iPod as it is rendered ineffective by the onslaught, and now Rinkoff is desperate, lonely, and has got no defenses. Congratulations! You’ve finished your mission! The Castle begins to shake and then finally falls in the sand as we fade in the air, left wondering what part of Rinkoff’s body hurts the most. | |
