One of the windows in the museum is broken, but we can't get in.
Kensigton, the tomb:
You can return to Kensington from one of the Museum's broken windows, exiting the breach caused by the Tyrranosaurus.
There is another torch next to the entrance to the tomb.

The Time Machine, The Ripper:
During the fight with the Ripper, when he wants to attack Kiya, he slowly walks instead of running towards her. When he loses a large part of his life bar, he clings to the walls of buildings, for no reason. And when he doesn't have much life left, he goes to the roof, and he starts bombarding with energy balls. And to the right of the battlefield there are vines that are used to climb on the roofs to confront him. And when we hurt him once, on the roofs, he teleports to the other side of the roofs. And so you have to join him to kill him permanently. And after this fight, the cutscene is longer because it shows the Ripper who has collapsed from his fall, and Daniel who jumps from the roof and draws his gun to kill the Ripper.
(note: if after the cutscene, the game freezes, remember to save first, and press triangle, to go to Hamilton's lab).
