Zuperbuu.

Glitch: Episode 6: Carmelita gets stuck and flies:
On level 6, lure Carmelita to the train track near the little lake (where the moles attack you). As a train drives by, she will be pushed over the edge and keep jumping. She will jump, land, walk a short distance, then slide off again. This works on any train track, but it is easier to lure her to a place where she cannot instantly get off the tracks. It is also possible for Carmelita to fall into water then keep jumping in and out of it, sometimes on one of the ice patches. She can escape if the train pulls her back on the tracks, or if you accidentally push her out of the water. If Carmelita gets stuck for a certain amount of time and you keep hitting her without getting shocked, she will shoot into the air with one huge jump then walk in the air for a brief moment until she falls back to earth. Note: When she lands again she will be able to attack you.

Go to the empty seat where Murray normally sits and select it. Murray should walk out the door, and the screen should flicker and twitch. You can now go anywhere desired. You cannot be hurt and cannot be seen by flashlights, guards, or bears. You can get killed by the train and the ice-patch on the other side of the level. You can scare guards and hit them, throw things at them, etc. They will hit you once if you hit them without killing them. However, they will then ignore you. If you die, you will turn back into Sly and you must do the job from where you get the first key again. Sly will not be invincible. If you enter a building, the effect is gone and you will be seen whenever you go into a flashlight, etc., as usual.

When the intermission sequence finishes, and before you start climbing up the electrical wires, smash some of the ground light bulbs to attack guards. Once a duck guard appears, run over to Murray while still luring the guards. Murray should be lifting a lever. Use the guard to hit Murray. When Murray is hit, he will move from his position. He could be across the ground floor of the lighthouse, and still be lifting an imaginary lever.

It states that all three watermelons were eaten, but the mission still continues. There are no more watermelons and you cannot continue the mission. The only way to exit is to abandon the job and start over.

Jump on the second board, or the middle one. Tap X and slowly move the Left Analog-stick to move to the top section where the board connects to the floor of the safe house.
