Take them, then you can either use the Inkzooka to splat the Octarians from the middle, or ink the platforms the Octarians are on, then swim, jump and climb up it so that you are on the same platform as the Octarians.

Trivia
- The Inkrail from Checkpoint 5 to the Final Checkpoint briefly goes underneath a structure from which a unique tune can be heard, distinct from the mission's normal music. It sounds similar to the jingle played by the tower in Tower Control. This tune can also be heard at the beginning and end of Spinning Spreaders.
