EDIT: Whoops. Didn't read page 2 of the thread before posting.

Maybe - looking at it outside of gameplay issues - the glukkons got the Lulu machines so that they could enjoy a good laugh at Lulu's stupid plan.

I didn't think there were more Vykkers Labs. I figured there was just the one ... the name of the place - Vykkers Labs instead of Vykkers Lab, coupled with the sheer size of the place, suggests to me that that was the only one.

And as a side note: despite the bars on the glukkon office doors, there is a level where you can get Abe into a glukkon office in MO. In Splinterz. You'll need to get Munch a Bounce to get him up the ledge. But the thing is, there is a little chant suppressor that zaps Abe if he gets too close and kills him in one hit, regardless of his health status.
