Ratatouille Walkthrough

------------------------------------
MISSION 17: OPERATION - FOOD {W1017}
------------------------------------

SUMMARY: Help your friends steal food from the kitchen, then help Remy run 
away when a chef spots him and gives chase.
STAGE: Little Chef - Big Kitchen
POINTS: 400

Now it's time to get the food, finally.  Head over to the corner where Emile 
is waiting (user your Super Sniffer skill if you're not sure of the direction) 
and jump up onto some crates to talk to him.  He'll say that everyone will be 
going after the food, with you giving the signals.

You'll do this by way of another series of mini-games.  In the first one, you 
help Emile pull a rope.  This works the same as it did the last time you 
played such a game.  Remember to stop the meter before it fills all the way.  
A strategy that works well for me is to press the button just before the meter 
fills, then press it again just a fraction of a second later.  Without even 
looking at the meter, really, I seem to nail an 'Excellent' effort most of the 
time.

After that mini-game ends, the rats will rush through the closet door and 
prompt another mini-game.  In this one, you must shoot the food you wish to 
take within the time limit.  You do that by moving the left analog stick over 
the items in the fridge that match the desired ship in the indicator, then 
pressing 'X' on the PS2 controller to fire.  You'll have to peg three of each 
type of food.

Once that mini-game has been successfully completed, the rats just need to 
escape.  The problem is that the chef is watching.  To play the next mini-
game, just watch the upper right corner of the screen for directions on which 
face button to press, then do so as quickly as possible, before the prompt 
disappears.

When you've helped three rats escape the chefs, one of them will see you and 
give chase.  Now you have to guide Remy as he runs toward the screen in an 
effort to outwit his pursuer.

The chase begins with rows of orange pots you can easily enough jump over.  
Stick toward the middle to right side of the screen for three or four rows, 
then start to head left as the camera rotates around.  You'll find yourself 
running up a ramp with the chef still in hot pursuit.  Dodge next through some 
sticky blue objects of some sort and keep running forward as the path loops 
around yet again.  You're still running straight toward the screen now.

Next, you'll have to worry about some gaps and other obstacles to your 
success.  Keep running, pressed mostly toward the right side of the area, and 
repeatedly double jump as you keep moving.  That should enable you to clear 
most pits and obstacles as you keep moving, until you pass what looks like a 
gray toolbox.  The chef is still chasing you and trying to catch you in a jar.

Now you have to weave through some huge jars as you keep moving toward the 
screen.  That's pretty easy, but they're followed by hot flames dancing on the 
stove, some taller than others.  You can leap over the short ones, but make 
sure to avoid the ones that burn higher.  Next, there is a series of short 
little jumps you must make, and you'll continue to run into the pilot flames 
as you proceed toward the screen and around a few final turns.  Then the 
mission ends.
