The level opens with a cinematic showing Mario trying to run against a conveyor, then turning back and pressing a grey button to make the conveyor move in the other direction, followed by crouching under a wall to get to the other side.

After crouching under a wall and climbing up a ladder, the player has pick up the Key. The player then needs to toss the Key onto the above conveyor and continue pressing the gray button that was next to the Key to lead the Key to near the first grey button, avoiding any spikes. Once the Key lands on solid ground, the player has to press the button once more and go collect the Key before its timer runs out. Pressing the gray button once more, the player needs to throw the Key on the conveyor belt that goes under the wall and meet it on the other side, allowing the player to unlock the door.

In the second area, there are several conveyors and ropes, along with four Tane Pakkuns placed at certain points.
