It is the room where the [[Caretaker Class Drone]] fight takes place, which locks access to [[Central Area Transport West]]. It also has a missile expansion and a [[Secret World]].


==General Overview==
==General Information==
In the standard route, this is one of the first places where [[Echo Visor]] is used following the [[Dark Samus 2]] boss fight. There are three echo locks that, when shot, will lower the door that blocks access to the dark portal leading to [[Staging Area]]. This will lead the player into the cylindrical tube where the Caretaker Drone fight takes place. Once the fight is over, the player is lead into a [[Morph Ball]] tunnel that leads to a trigger that unlocks the door to Central Area Transport West. It is important to not leave the room once any of the echo locks are shot, as upon reloading the room it will be impossible to progress normally from there, as the dark portal will now be inaccessible.

On the bottom level of the room, where the dark portal resides, there are also two Quads, a door to [[Torvus Transport Access (Sanctuary Fortress)|Torvus Transport Access]] that requires a Power Bomb to open, and the start of the optional section of the room leading to the missile expansion. [[Spider Ball]] tracks lead to both the expansion and the door connecting to [[Transit Station (Sanctuary Fortress)|Transit Station]]. Under certain conditions, the collision of the Quads can overlap with the hook, which can get them stuck. It's even possible to get both Quads to overlap with eachother, though this has no known practical uses.
