Yes, even with Dr. Carroll the restart count is still a medium. My 'awesome' strat lowers the difficulty and restart count compared to the WR strat, with only little to some time difference. Okay, here's the strat:
Exit the cinema, press start, and select the Fal2 and NightV. Give the first guy a quick headshot, switch to unarmed(disarm), and go to the next door. Open it from the side, then run past (you shouldn't get shot). In this 'hallway' there's a guy behind the couch. (Quickly) run to his back and punch, knocking him out and taking his CMP. Go through the next hallway, and the next, with another guy behind a ?couch?. Go to his back and punch him. Go to the stairs. Run up the stairs, strafe right, then strafe left, to the middle, and through those two guards. If done right, most of the time you will take little or no damage. Run to the elevator, and as you're going through press 'B' to close the door. OBJECTIVE 1: COMPLETE. TT :18 - :20 If you want, shoot one of those guys. *Note: The less damage you take, the better time you will have. So on your good runs it's like a double plus.
Dr. Carroll will take most of his damage right now, so just watch out for that. When you arrive, run to the guy behind the desk. Disarm him if you want, but if you want to save that approx. .5s go ahead.
Open the door. With some luck and skill that door will stay open for you. Strafe through, switch to your CMP. You should hear/see the copter. When you're almost at the corner where the guards pop out (do this before they pop out), face a little to the left straight ahead (about 100 degree angle)(no strafe). The guard will pop out, put a quick 5 or so shots in her (killing her), and continue. Here's the big luck/skill part. Luck: You want the copter to kill the other guard. Skill: If you run past her the right way, the copter will kill her. I don't the right way exactly, but you'll figure it out. Go to the door where the computer's at (open it), and quickly shoot the guard here. Press 'B' on the computer and run all the way back. If you were under 15s, you made the door. Run to the closest elevator and press 'B'. OBJECTIVE 2: COMPLETE. TT (if you made the door) :56 - :59.
Go up, and run to the door in front of the two guards. If you don't look at them, they shouldn't hit you. Falcon 2 in hand, run to the next door. Line yourself up with where the guard will be at before you open the door. Open the door, if you need to take .2s to aim, and fire some quick shots, putting her away. Switch to Shotgun double blast. Open the next door, and a door will open in the distance, revealing two more guards. Put them away, and to not have to run up to them to do it. Then run to the door to the right of the elevator, open it, and go up. As you're going up, reload the shotgun. Go into the room before cass's office, and shoot the guard by the RL, then go collect his ammo and the RL. The copter should now be left of the RL stand. There are two ways to shoot the copter:
1. My way: Simultaneously run to window and switch to RL, the copter will break the window, and now shoot it with an untargeted rocket. Takes an extra 3s than someone who's mastered #2.
2. WR way: Shoot it as you complete obj 5. A LOT more risky but saves up to 3s.
OBJECTIVE 3: COMPLETE. Anyway, run up the next stairs to Cass & more bodyguards. Switch to CMP with 10+ bullets left. When you open the steel door, your TT is 1:36-1:46. This next part should be the only part where you die, if you die. There are 2 ways to do this part:
1. My way: Run to the bguard in the far right, shoot her halfway, run to her, the lights will turn off by now, so switch to NightV., shoot the bguard next to her. Then, switch to another weapon if needed, and take out the girl to your left when you turn around from the bg's you just killed. Kill the bg by the stairs, then run up, kill the last bg. More time consuming, but safer if you're like me and can't do #2.
2. WR way: Shoot the girl to the right (closest to you), run to her and turn off the lights (lightswitch is near her), the lights will go out, so turn them back on. Handle your business (the guards will be woosy). Great way to kill all the guards, however, you WILL get shot turning on the lights. I always die, so I use #1.
OBJECTIVE 4: COMPLETE. Now just finish the level. OBJECTIVE 5: COMPLETE. TT: <2:15.
