The First image (Right) side flipped upside down. The second image is the (left) side flipped upside down. Now, the screws are out and the cable is disconnected. The puffy side of the battery is stuck/glued onto something. How do I retrieve the battery? Its thicker than my laptop I NEED to remove it. How do I figure this out? Thanks for any help!

My suggestion qould be to drip some Isopropyl (Rubbing) alcohol below the battery. This should soften the adhesive.
Hi @kharmas_token , Looking at this video it doesn’t appear that the battery is glued down as there is no residual glue etc showing where the battery had been situated once it was removed. It was lifted straight out. Maybe because it is swollen it has jammed in position. View from about 2:36 minutes into the video. See if you can lever it out without damaging anything, especially the battery.
Hey I had the same issue- if you look to the left of the battery- there should be a little cave in for a black tag. You can try to get needle nose pliers to pull that up: it should look like it is stretching and about to break. I pried the battery out from the other side and it turns out that is an adhesive used to keep the battery stay in place.
