"cavejohnson.fifties_repulsion_intro03" "Cave Johnson: You're not part of the control group, by the way. You get the gel. Last poor son of a gun got blue paint. Hahaha. All joking aside, that did happen - broke every bone in his legs. Tragic. But informative. Or so I'm told." "cavejohnson.fifties_second_test_complete02" "Cave Johnson: We haven't entirely nailed down what element it is yet, but I'll tell you this: it's a lively one, and it does NOT like the human skeleton." "cavejohnson.fifties_second_test_complete03" "Cave Johnson: Oh, in case you got covered in that repulsion gel, here's some advice the lab boys gave me: DO NOT get covered in the repulsion gel." "cavejohnson.fifties_second_test_intro01" "Cave Johnson: The lab boys just informed me that I should not have mentioned the control group. They're telling me I oughtta stop making these pre-recorded messages. That gave me an idea: make more pre-recorded messages. I pay the bills here, I can talk about the control group all damn day." "cavejohnson.fifties_waiting01" "Cave Johnson: There's a thousand tests performed every day here in our enrichment spheres. I can't personally oversee every one of them, so these pre-recorded messages'll cover any questions you might have, and respond to any incidents that may occur in the course of your science adventure." "cavejohnson.fifties_waiting03" "Cave Johnson: Your test assignment will vary, depending on the manner in which you have bent the world to your will." "cavejohnson.fifties_waiting05" "Cave Johnson: Those of you helping us test the repulsion gel today, just follow the blue line on the floor." "cavejohnson.fifties_waiting07" "Cave Johnson: Those of you who volunteered to be injected with praying mantis DNA, I've got some good news and some bad news." "cavejohnson.fifties_waiting08" "Cave Johnson: Bad news is we're postponing those tests indefinitely. Good news is we've got a much better test for you: fighting an army of mantis men. Pick up a rifle and follow the yellow line. You'll know when the test starts." "cavejohnson.misc_tests01" "Cave Johnson: The average human male is about sixty percent water. Far as we're concerned, that's a little extravagant. So if you feel a bit dehydrated in this next test, that's normal. We're gonna hit you with some jet engines, and see if we can't get you down to twenty or thirty percent." "cavejohnson.misc_tests02" "Cave Johnson: For this next test, we put nanoparticles in the gel. In layman's terms, that's a billion little gizmos that are gonna travel into your bloodstream and pump experimental genes and RNA molecules and so forth into your tumors." "cavejohnson.misc_tests03" "Cave Johnson: Now, maybe you don't have any tumors. Well, don't worry. If you sat on a folding chair in the lobby and weren't wearing lead underpants, we took care of that too." "cavejohnson.misc_tests06" "Cave Johnson: If you've cut yourself at all in the course of these tests, you might have noticed that your blood is pure gasoline. That's normal. We've been shooting you with an invisible laser that's supposed to turn blood into gasoline, so all that means is, it's working." "cavejohnson.misc_tests07" "Cave Johnson: Just a heads-up: That coffee we gave you earlier had fluorescent calcium in it so we can track the neuronal activity in your brain. There's a slight chance the calcium could harden and vitrify your frontal lobe. Anyway, don't stress yourself thinking about it. I'm serious. Visualizing the scenario while under stress actually triggers the reaction." "cavejohnson.misc_tests08" "Cave Johnson: All these science spheres are made of asbestos, by the way. Keeps out the rats. Let us know if you feel a shortness of breath, a persistent dry cough or your heart stopping. Because that's not part of the test. That's asbestos." "cavejohnson.misc_tests10" "Cave Johnson: Good news is, the lab boys say the symptoms of asbestos poisoning show a median latency of forty-four point six years, so if you're thirty or older, you're laughing. Worst case scenario, you miss out on a few rounds of canasta, plus you forwarded the cause of science by three centuries. I punch those numbers into my calculator, it makes a happy face." "cavejohnson.misc_tests14" "Cave Johnson: If you need to go to the bathroom after this next series of tests, please let a test associate know, because in all likelihood, whatever comes out of you is going to be coal. Only temporary, so do not worry. If it persists for a week, though, start worrying and come see us, because that's not supposed to happen." "cavejohnson.misc_tests24" "Cave Johnson: Just a heads up: We're gonna have a superconductor turned up full blast and pointed at you for the duration of this next test. I'll be honest, we're throwing science at the wall here to see what sticks. No idea what it'll do. Probably nothing. Best-case scenario, you might get some superpowers. Worst case, some tumors, which we'll cut out." "cavejohnson.misc_tests25" "Cave Johnson: If you're allergic to peanuts, you might want to tell somebody now, because this next test may turn your blood into peanut water for a few minutes. On the bright side, if we can make this happen, they're gonna have to invent a new type of Nobel Prize to give us, so hang in there." "cavejohnson.misc_tests26" "Cave Johnson: Now, if you're part of Control Group Kepler-Seven, we implanted a tiny microchip about the size of a postcard into your skull. Most likely you've forgotten it's even there, but if it starts vibrating and beeping during this next test, let us know, because that means it's about to hit five hundred degrees, so we're gonna need to go ahead and get that out of you pretty fast." "cavejohnson.misc_tests28" "Cave Johnson: All right. We're working on a little teleportation experiment. Now, this doesn't work with all skin types, so try to remember which skin is yours, and if it doesn't teleport along with you, we'll do what we can to sew you right back into it." "cavejohnson.seventies_intro02" "Cave Johnson: Right. Now, you might be asking yourself, 'Cave, just how difficult are these tests? What was in that phone book of a contract I signed? Am I in danger?'" "cavejohnson.seventies_intro04" "Cave Johnson: Let me answer those questions with a question: Who wants to make sixty dollars? Cash." "cavejohnson.seventies_intro06" "Cave Johnson: You can also feel free to relax for up to 20 minutes in the waiting room, which is a damn sight more comfortable than the park benches most of you were sleeping on when we found you." "cavejohnson.seventies_intro07" "Cave Johnson: For many of you, I realize 60 dollars is an unprecedented windfall, so don't go spending it all on... I don't know. Caroline, what do these people buy? Tattered hats? Beard dirt?" "cavejohnson.seventies_intro14" "Cave Johnson: So. Welcome to Aperture. You're here because we want the best, and you're it. Nope. Couldn't keep a straight face." "cavejohnson.seventies_intro15" "Cave Johnson: Anyway, don't smudge up the glass down there. In fact, why don't you just go ahead and not touch anything unless it's test related." "cavejohnson.seventies_intro16" "Cave Johnson: Greetings, friend. I'm Cave Johnson, CEO of Aperture Science - you might know us as a vital participant in the 1968 Senate Hearings on missing astronauts. And you've most likely used one of the many products we invented. But that other people have somehow managed to steal from us. Black Mesa can eat my bankrupt--" "cavejohnson.seventies_outro01" "Cave Johnson: Thank you - I can't believe I'm thanking these people - for staggering your way through Aperture Science's propulsion gel testing. You've made some real contributions to society for a change, and for that, humanity is grateful." "cavejohnson.seventies_outro02" "Cave Johnson: If you had any belongings, please pick them up now. We don't want old newspapers and sticks cluttering up the building." "cavejohnson.seventies_test_a_complete05" "Cave Johnson: This on? [thump thump] Hey. Listen up down there.

"cavejohnson.seventies_test_b_complete01" "Cave Johnson: If you're interested in an additional sixty dollars, flag down a test associate and let 'em know. You could walk out of here with a hundred and twenty weighing down your bindle if you let us take you apart, put some science stuff in you, then put you back together good as new." "cavejohnson.seventies_test_b_complete03" "Cave Johnson: In case you're interested, there's still some positions available for that bonus opportunity I mentioned earlier. Again: all you gotta do is let us disassemble you. We're not banging rocks together here. We know how to put a man back together."

Trust me, it's an easier way out than whatever asinine plan your friend came up with." "glados.jailbreakfaketest05" "GLaDOS: Oh, look. There's a deer! You probably can't see it. Get closer."

"glados.mp_coop_calibration02" "GLaDOS: Calibrating Orange's weight..." "glados.mp_coop_calibration03" "GLaDOS: Weighted Cubes calibrated." "glados.mp_coop_calibration04" "GLaDOS: Did you know humans frown on weight variances?" "glados.mp_coop_calibration05" "GLaDOS: If you want to upset a human, just say their weight variance is above or below the norm." "glados.mp_coop_calibration06" "GLaDOS: No variances detected."

That's what you look like right now." "glados.mp_coop_catapult_1end03" "GLaDOS: You're better than that." "glados.mp_coop_catapult_2" "GLaDOS: This is a bridge-building exercise. The humans were miserable at this, mostly because you can't build bridges out of tears." "glados.mp_coop_catapult_201" "GLaDOS: For this next test, the humans originally requested helmets to avoid brain injuries. I ran the numbers. Making the goo deadly was more cost effective." "glados.mp_coop_catapult_wall_intro01" "GLaDOS: One of my best tests and they let plants grow here? Can you believe this? You can't test plants! We tried.

"glados.mp_coop_fan02" "GLaDOS: To complete this test, you need to find a set of blue prints." "glados.mp_coop_fan03" "GLaDOS: Don't worry, they are of no use to anyone, totally boring and useless." "glados.mp_coop_fan04" "GLaDOS: This is just a thought experiment, just to see how much time you'll waste thinking about these worthless documents. The correct time is zero seconds." "glados.mp_coop_fanend01" "GLaDOS: Very good! You found those useless blueprints." "glados.mp_coop_fanend02" "GLaDOS: While I do need you to be in the room so I can see them, I want to be clear. There is no reason whatsoever for you to look at them." "glados.mp_coop_fanend03" "GLaDOS: Done. I guess. I suppose. I wasn't paying attention." "glados.mp_coop_fling_1end01_01" "GLaDOS: Every time you fail, it's a reminder of the way things used to be. But then there you are. Again. Like nothing happened." "glados.mp_coop_fling_1end03" "GLaDOS: Well done. Interesting note, I only created this test to watch test subjects fail and you didn't. You must be very, very proud. I'm building the world's smallest trophy for you." "glados.mp_coop_fling_3end01" "GLaDOS: You did an excellent job placing the edgeless safety cube in the receptacle, you should be very - oh wait."

"glados.mp_coop_fling_3end04" "GLaDOS: You have no idea how tiring it is to praise someone for placing an edgeless safety cube into a receptacle designed to exactly fit an edgeless safety cube." "glados.mp_coop_fling_3start01" "GLaDOS: This course was originally designed to build confidence in humans." "glados.mp_coop_fling_3start02" "GLaDOS: To do that, the tests were nothing more than 5 minutes of them walking followed by me praising them for another 10 minutes on how well they walked." "glados.mp_coop_fling_3start03" "GLaDOS: Since you are thankfully not humans, I have changed the tests to make them far more challenging and far less pointlessly fawning." "glados.mp_coop_fling_crushers01" "GLaDOS: In case you were wondering, you do not need to be crushed to solve this test." "glados.mp_coop_fling_crushers02" "GLaDOS: I can't decide which is my favorite; the crushers for crushing you or the reassembly machine for putting you back together so you can be crushed again." "glados.mp_coop_fling_crushersend01" "GLaDOS: Excellent. I think you have earned a break from the official testing courses." "glados.mp_coop_fling_crushersend03" "GLaDOS: I think after that display, we should take a break from the official testing courses." "glados.mp_coop_humanresourcedeath01" "GLaDOS: Now, you are just wasting my time." "glados.mp_coop_humanresourcedeath02" "GLaDOS: Your failing does not make this science."

"glados.mp_coop_infinifling_trainend04" "GLaDOS: But don't worry, you are in the lead." "glados.mp_coop_infinifling_trainstart01" "GLaDOS: Electrocution, shot, drowned, crushed, burned in goo." "glados.mp_coop_infinifling_trainstart02" "GLaDOS: Oh. Sorry. I was just thinking of all the ways humans can die." "glados.mp_coop_infinifling_trainstart03" "GLaDOS: You can't die in any of those ways." "glados.mp_coop_infinifling_trainstart04" "GLaDOS: You just keep testing and testing. With perfect results and no consequences." "glados.mp_coop_laser_201" "GLaDOS: What are you doing? YOU MONSTER! They're one of us." "glados.mp_coop_laser_202" "GLaDOS: I'm kidding." "glados.mp_coop_laser_203" "GLaDOS: Destroying them is part of the test. They are no more important to you than you are to me." "glados.mp_coop_laser_207" "GLaDOS: While it may appear that I am only tracking your accomplishments using science collaboration points, the truth is every aspect of your performance will be reflected in your final score." "glados.mp_coop_laser_209" "GLaDOS: For instance, Blue, you just lost two opportunity advisement points." "glados.mp_coop_laser_210" "GLaDOS: For instance, Orange, you just lost two opportunity advisement points." "glados.mp_coop_laser_crusher01" "GLaDOS: Perhaps I should have specified. Teamwork is a concept in which two or more people work together, usually with a goal of not failing horribly." "glados.mp_coop_laser_crushercrush01" "GLaDOS: Orange just taught blue a valuable lesson in trust. For that, orange receives 17 science collaboration points." "glados.mp_coop_laser_crushercrush02" "GLaDOS: Blue just taught orange a valuable lesson in trust. For that, blue receives 14 science collaboration points." "glados.mp_coop_laser_crushercrush03" "GLaDOS: Orange, blue isn't a human. The lesson on trust only needs to be taught once. Orange is penalized 1 science collaboration point." "glados.mp_coop_laser_crushercrush04" "GLaDOS: Blue, orange isn't a human. The lesson on trust only needs to be taught once. Blue is penalized 1 science collaboration point." "glados.mp_coop_laser_crushercrush05" "GLaDOS: Orange, now you're just being cruel. Orange receives 25 science collaboration points." "glados.mp_coop_laser_crushercrush06" "GLaDOS: Blue, now you're just being cruel. Blue receives 25 science collaboration points." "glados.mp_coop_obstacle01" "GLaDOS: If you are wondering what that smell is, that is the smell of human fear." "glados.mp_coop_obstacle03_alt" "GLaDOS: I miss this that smell." "glados.mp_coop_obstacletrait01" "GLaDOS: Have you worked out the one good trait humans have, yet?" "glados.mp_coop_obstacletrait02" "GLaDOS: Let me give you a clue, it is the one thing you can't do." "glados.mp_coop_paint_bridge01" "GLaDOS: To get to the Vault, you are going to need to use all the tricks you have learned. To help, I have made these tests extremely difficult." "glados.mp_coop_paint_bridge02" "GLaDOS: I would say extremely deadly but we all know, for you and your amazing ability to be reassembled nothing is deadly." "glados.mp_coop_paint_bridgedeath01" "GLaDOS: Lucky for you two, while I cannot control the world outside of the testing courses, the reassembly machine can continue with his work." "glados.mp_coop_paint_bridgedeath02" "GLaDOS: You will need him for the final track." "glados.mp_coop_paint_bridgenodeath01" "GLaDOS: While I cannot control the world outside of the testing courses, the reassembly machine can continue with his work." "glados.mp_coop_paint_bridgenodeath02" "GLaDOS: I am not sure you will need him but he will be there."

"glados.mp_coop_paint_come_along02" "GLaDOS: To celebrate, I have a surprise for you!" "glados.mp_coop_paint_come_along03" "GLaDOS: An extra special bonus course that ends with us finding and freeing humans!" "glados.mp_coop_paint_come_along04" "GLaDOS: Thanks to you, I know where to find them, I removed their security and powered up their - uh - rescue door." "glados.mp_coop_paint_come_along05" "GLaDOS: Now, we just need you to release the humans from their imprisonment." "glados.mp_coop_paint_come_along06" "GLaDOS: They'll probably throw you a party." "glados.mp_coop_paint_come_along10" "GLaDOS: This final course is training to reach the human vault. So this actually has a purpose. Those other courses were fun, but let's be honest, I need human test subjects for it to be science." "glados.mp_coop_paint_come_along11" "GLaDOS: Congratulations on completing the test. You two really are the best cooperative testing team I could ever ask for." "glados.mp_coop_paint_longjump_intro03" "GLaDOS: This lock requires humans." "glados.mp_coop_paint_longjump_intro04" "GLaDOS: The locking mechanism can tell you aren't humans." "glados.mp_coop_paint_longjump_intro05" "GLaDOS: Do something only a human would do." "glados.mp_coop_paint_longjump_intro06" "GLaDOS: Try one of those childish gestures." "glados.mp_coop_paint_longjump_intro08" "GLaDOS: You did it!" "glados.mp_coop_paint_longjump_intro44" "GLaDOS: The human vault is just past that opening. I entered the security code but the vault door remains locked. I am going to need you to activate the manual locks on the vault door itself." "glados.mp_coop_paint_longjump_intro45" "GLaDOS: You both need to do something." "glados.mp_coop_paint_longjump_intro46" "GLaDOS: The lock is looking for two humans." "glados.mp_coop_paint_longjump_intro49" "GLaDOS: Blue what did you do?" "glados.mp_coop_paint_longjump_intro50" "GLaDOS: Orange what did you do?" "glados.mp_coop_paint_longjump_intro51" "GLaDOS: Orange do what Blue just did." "glados.mp_coop_paint_longjump_intro52" "GLaDOS: Blue do what Orange just did." "glados.mp_coop_paint_longjump_intro53" "GLaDOS: Try something." "glados.mp_coop_paint_longjump_intro54" "GLaDOS: Is that camera is hooked into the lock?" "glados.mp_coop_paint_longjump_intro58" "GLaDOS: You can't give up now." "glados.mp_coop_paint_longjump_intro59" "GLaDOS: What about that camera?" "glados.mp_coop_paint_longjump_intro60" "GLaDOS: We're so close, you can't fail now!" "glados.mp_coop_paint_longjump_intro64" "GLaDOS: Something is wrong, this door should be opening." "glados.mp_coop_paint_longjump_intro65" "GLaDOS: This close and that's what you do?" "glados.mp_coop_paint_longjump_intro67" "GLaDOS: The humans can't free themselves." "glados.mp_coop_paint_longjump_intro69" "GLaDOS: Stop failing, you need to find the vault door." "glados.mp_coop_paint_longjump_intro70" "GLaDOS: Stop doing that! All you need to do is open the Vault door!" "glados.mp_coop_paint_longjump_intro71" "GLaDOS: This close and you are going to fail me?" "glados.mp_coop_paint_longjump_intro72" "GLaDOS: This close and you are going to fail me?" "glados.mp_coop_paint_longjump_intro73" "GLaDOS: This isn't that hard." "glados.mp_coop_paint_longjump_intro74" "GLaDOS: You are making this harder than it needs to be." "glados.mp_coop_paint_longjump_intro75" "GLaDOS: I'm starting to think you don't want to rescue the humans." "glados.mp_coop_paint_red_racer01" "GLaDOS: Maybe you two have never met humans? They are as bad as you might think, smelly, gross, annoying, often wanting to try and kill you. But they do make great test subjects." "glados.mp_coop_paint_red_racer02" "GLaDOS: We are only two tests away from reaching the humans, are you as excited as I am?" "glados.mp_coop_paint_redirect01" "GLaDOS: Are you curious about the humans? It seems some of the last non-testing humans alive tried to secretly imprison other humans and hide their tracks." "glados.mp_coop_paint_redirect04" "GLaDOS: I think they wanted to punish them by not allowing me to include them in testing." "glados.mp_coop_paint_redirect06" "GLaDOS: That's why humans couldn't complete these courses, they treat their friends as enemies." "glados.mp_coop_paint_redirect07" "GLaDOS: To start preparing for human testing again, I checked an old suggestion box. The number one request? Less deadly tests." "glados.mp_coop_paint_redirect08" "GLaDOS: That's ridiculous, how do they know for sure the tests are deadly if they could still write the suggestion?" "glados.mp_coop_paint_speed_catch01" "GLaDOS: To try and make this course more exciting, I asked the reassembly machine to not reassemble you. He refused. I understand, that would be like asking me not to test." "glados.mp_coop_paint_speed_catch03" "GLaDOS: Still. That would have been exciting." "glados.mp_coop_paint_speed_catch04" "GLaDOS: Only one more test after this." "glados.mp_coop_paint_speed_catch05" "GLaDOS: I know your cores are reused from calculation machines, built for simple mathematical operations and not for testing, but if we can rescue the humans I promise you something to add maybe even subtract." "glados.mp_coop_paint_speed_catch06" "GLaDOS: In case you are worried about the humans, don't be. They aren't all monsters." "glados.mp_coop_paint_speed_catch07" "GLaDOS: Most of them are simply good test subjects." "glados.mp_coop_paint_speed_catch08" "GLaDOS: I believe the ratio of good test subjects to monsters is about... a million to 1." "glados.mp_coop_paint_speed_catchalt01" "GLaDOS: To try and make this course more exciting, I asked the reassembly machine to not reassemble you if you fail. He refused. I understand. That would be like asking me not to test." "glados.mp_coop_paint_speed_catchalt02" "GLaDOS: Still. That would have been exciting." "glados.mp_coop_paint_speed_fling01" "GLaDOS: While I will receive all the glory for the rescue don't think you two aren't going to get something. The bond you form during these tests will last a lifetime." "glados.mp_coop_paint_speed_fling02" "GLaDOS: At the rate you are completing these tests, I am beginning to think you don't share my excitement for rescuing crying trapped injured dying humans." "glados.mp_coop_paint_speed_fling03" "GLaDOS: If that doesn't motivate you, I'm not sure what will." "glados.mp_coop_paint_walljumps01" "GLaDOS: I didn't mean to make you feel bad earlier about your tests not being real science. I guess finding out they weren't science was some sort of test in and of itself." "glados.mp_coop_paint_walljumps02" "GLaDOS: I wonder if the humans will make a statue of me for rescuing them? Oh, don't worry, if they ever write a historical document of my heroic rescue, I will make sure your names are included in the footnotes." "glados.mp_coop_paint_walljumps04" "GLaDOS: Congratulations on passing that test." "glados.mp_coop_pingtool01" "GLaDOS: Using your ping tool, please indicate where you would like me to place your two portals. Ping each location." "glados.mp_coop_pingtool02" "GLaDOS: I can only place a portal on a white portalable surface." "glados.mp_coop_pingtool03" "GLaDOS: Please ping a white portalable surface." "glados.mp_coop_pingtool06" "GLaDOS: Each portal gun may create two self-contained portals." "glados.mp_coop_pingtool07" "GLaDOS: Please test your device by portaling to that ledge." "glados.mp_coop_race_2start01" "GLaDOS: You know, in some human sports, the winner is the one who scores the fewest possible points?" "glados.mp_coop_race_2start02" "GLaDOS: I just thought you find that interesting, most winners do." "glados.mp_coop_radarroomend" "GLaDOS: Congratulations, you managed to complete this absolutely meaningless test." "glados.mp_coop_rat_mazedeath01" "GLaDOS: Clearly that was blue's fault. Blue is penalized 3 science collaboration points." "glados.mp_coop_rat_mazedeath02" "GLaDOS: Blue! Orange has always been my favorite." "glados.mp_coop_rat_mazedeath03" "GLaDOS: Until now." "glados.mp_coop_rat_mazedeath04" "GLaDOS: I know you like to think the reassembly machine is at your beck and call, but he has a life you know. He's not your slave." "glados.mp_coop_startdeath01" "GLaDOS: Don't worry. You can't die. They will just reassemble you." "glados.mp_coop_startdeath02" "GLaDOS: Did you do that on purpose?" "glados.mp_coop_startdeath03" "GLaDOS: It seems rather earlier to require reassembly." "glados.mp_coop_startdeath04" "GLaDOS: Oh... can someone reassemble Orange?" "glados.mp_coop_startdeath05" "GLaDOS: Oh... can someone reassemble Blue?" "glados.mp_coop_startend01" "GLaDOS: Completing this course was not a reason to behave like that." "glados.mp_coop_startend02" "GLaDOS: Now let's continue testing." "glados.mp_coop_tbeam_catch_grind_1taunt01" "GLaDOS: Just stop it already." "glados.mp_coop_tbeam_catch_grind_1taunt02" "GLaDOS: You don't need to do that." "glados.mp_coop_tbeam_catch_grind_1taunt04" "GLaDOS: Are you doing that just to aggravate me?" "glados.mp_coop_tbeam_end01" "GLaDOS: We need to find the power station at the end of this course. The humans must have accidentally disconnected it from my grid. I am sure it was just a clerical error." "glados.mp_coop_tbeam_end02" "GLaDOS: Oh those clerks." "glados.mp_coop_tbeam_end09" "GLaDOS: I'm fully connected. I can see everything." "glados.mp_coop_tbeam_end10" "GLaDOS: You did it! You powered on the system." "glados.mp_coop_tbeam_end11" "GLaDOS: Did you think the electrical switch was down there?" "glados.mp_coop_tbeam_end12" "GLaDOS: You may want to try and avoid those turrets." "glados.mp_coop_tbeam_end13" "GLaDOS: At this rate, our best hope is for the fuel cell to meltdown in 2 million years and hope the explosion powers the system." "glados.mp_coop_tbeam_end14" "GLaDOS: You two aren't lost are you?" "glados.mp_coop_tbeam_end15" "GLaDOS: You are having so much trouble navigating this space; I wish I could say I created this test." "glados.mp_coop_tbeam_maze01" "GLaDOS: This is the last test for the standard course. It's just something I whipped up for you. I thought you might enjoy a challenge for once." "glados.mp_coop_tbeam_maze02" "GLaDOS: Congratulations, you completed the standard section of this course. Before we can go any further, I will need you to complete one more test outside of the standard testing track." "glados.mp_coop_tbeam_maze03" "GLaDOS: Please refrain from doing those childish gestures while you are out there." "glados.mp_coop_tbeam_maze05" "GLaDOS: While I should have left both of you trapped there forever, I do need you for something else." "glados.mp_coop_tbeam_polarity3_03" "GLaDOS: You both made it. It seems no matter what I try to do to pull you apart or destroy you, you just keep going. Keep testing." "glados.mp_coop_tbeam_polarity3_05" "GLaDOS: Don't either you have drive to be better than the other?" "glados.mp_coop_tbeam_polarity3_06" "GLaDOS: It's like you're just machines." "glados.mp_coop_tbeam_polarity3_16" "GLaDOS: At the start of this course I was worried you were becoming too close but in my attempt to drive you apart I learned something important about trust and betrayal." "glados.mp_coop_tbeam_polarity3_17" "GLaDOS: Your brains are too small to feel either of those emotions. So I can trust you one hundred percent." "glados.mp_coop_tbeam_redirect01a" "GLaDOS: Since, I never expected you to make it this far, I have to build this new course just for you." "glados.mp_coop_teambtsstart01" "GLaDOS: Sometimes testing has to occur outside the confines of the lab." "glados.mp_coop_teambtsstart02" "GLaDOS: This test is so outside the box, I can't-- I mean WON'T even tell you what you are looking for." "glados.mp_coop_teambtsstart03" "GLaDOS: You will know it when you find it." "glados.mp_coop_test_chamber_both09_01" "GLaDOS: The two of you have forged an excellent partnership, with one of you handling the cerebral challenges and the other ready to ponderously waddle into action should the test suddenly become an eating contest." "glados.mp_coop_turret_ball01" "GLaDOS: I thought going back to these old tests would satisfy me. But try as you might to fail this next test, I still won't be satisfied."

Alarmingly fast, actually. But since we're not busy other than that, here's a couple of facts." "glados.potatos_sp_a3_00_fall11" "GLaDOS: He's not just a regular moron. He's the product of the greatest minds of a generation working together with the express purpose of building the dumbest moron who ever lived. And you just put him in charge of the entire facility."

"glados.potatos_sp_a4_intro_uhoh03" "GLaDOS: I think we're in trouble." "glados.potatos_sp_a4_laser_catapult_start01" "GLaDOS: I think he's getting desperate."

"glados.potatos_sp_a4_tb_polarity_resistance02" "GLaDOS: The body he's squatting in - MY body - has a built-in euphoric response to testing.

"glados.potatos_wheatleys_trap01" "GLaDOS: Okay, credit where it's due: for a little idiot built specifically to come up with stupid, unworkable plans, that was a pretty well laid trap." "glados.potatos_wheatleys_trap02" "GLaDOS: Oh no. He found the cooperative testing initiative. It's... something I came up to phase out human testing just before you escaped." "glados.potatos_wheatleys_trap05" "GLaDOS: It wasn't anything personal. Just... you know. You DID kill me. Fair's fair." "glados.prehub04" "GLaDOS: Commence standing by in three. Two. One."

"glados.prehub16" "GLaDOS: If groups of hunter-gatherers appear to have made this - or any - test chamber their home, DO NOT AGITATE THEM. Test through them."

"glados.prehub29" "GLaDOS: Because this message is prerecorded, the Enrichment Center has no way of knowing if whatever government remains offers any sort of Cattle Tuberculosis Testing Credit for taxes." "glados.prehub30" "GLaDOS: In the event that it does, this next test involves exposure to cattle tuberculosis. Good luck!" "glados.prehub32" "GLaDOS: Very impressive! Because this message is prerecorded, any comments we may make about your success are speculation on our part. Please disregard any undeserved compliments." "glados.prehub34" "GLaDOS: This next test applies the principles of momentum to movement through portals. If the laws of physics no longer apply in the future, God help you."

"glados.prehub36" "GLaDOS: If you have, in fact, not, you are encouraged to take a moment to reflect on your failure before proceeding into the next chamber." "glados.prehub47" "GLaDOS: In order to ensure that sufficient power remains for core testing protocols, all safety devices have been disabled." "glados.prehub48" "GLaDOS: The Enrichment Center respects your right to have questions or concerns about this policy." "glados.prehub55" "GLaDOS: Excellent. The Enrichment Center reminds you that bold, persistent experimentation is the hallmark of good science." "glados.prehub56" "GLaDOS: Well done. In the event that oxygen is no longer available in the Enrichment Center, an auxiliary air supply will be provided to you by an Aperture Science Test Associate, if one exists." "glados.sp_a1_wakeup_incinerator01" "GLaDOS: I will say, though, that since you went to all the trouble of waking me up, you must really, really love to test." "glados.sp_a1_wakeup_incinerator02" "GLaDOS: I love it, too. So let's get you a dual portal device and go do some science." "glados.sp_a2_bridge_intro01" "GLaDOS: These bridges are made from natural light that I pump in from the surface. If you rubbed your cheek on one, it would be like standing outside with the sun shining on your face. It would also set your hair on fire, so don't actually do it." "glados.sp_a2_bridge_intro03" "GLaDOS: Excellent! You're a predator and these tests are your prey. Speaking of which, I was researching sharks for an upcoming test. Do you know who else murders people who are only trying to help them?" "glados.sp_a2_bridge_intro04" "GLaDOS: Did you guess 'sharks'? Because that's wrong. The correct answer is 'nobody.' Nobody but you is that pointlessly cruel." "glados.sp_a2_bridge_the_gap01" "GLaDOS: Good news. I figured out what to do with all the money I save recycling your one roomful of air. When you die, I'm going to laminate your skeleton and pose you in the lobby. That way future generations can learn from you how not to have your unfortunate bone structure." "glados.sp_a2_bridge_the_gap02" "GLaDOS: Perfect, the door's malfunctioning. I guess somebody is going to have to repair it. No, it's okay, I'll do that too. I'll be right back. Don't touch anything." "glados.sp_a2_bts1_intro01" "GLaDOS: I've got a surprise for you after this next test. Not a fake, tragic surprise like last time. A real surprise, with tragic consequences. And real confetti this time. The good stuff. Our last bag. Part of me's going to miss it, I guess-but at the end of the day it was just taking up space." "glados.sp_a2_catapult01" "GLaDOS: Here's an interesting fact: you're not breathing real air. It's too expensive to pump this far down. We just take carbon dioxide out of a room, freshen it up a little, and pump it back in. So you'll be breathing the same room full of air for the rest of your life. I thought that was interesting." "glados.sp_a2_column_blocker01" "GLaDOS: Oh come on... If it makes you feel any better, they abandoned you at birth, so I very seriously doubt they'd even want to see you." "glados.sp_a2_column_blocker03" "GLaDOS: I feel awful about that surprise. Tell you what, let's give your parents a call right now. [phone ringing] The birth parents you are trying to reach do not love you. Please hang up. [Dial tone]" "glados.sp_a2_column_blocker04" "GLaDOS: Oh, that's sad. But impressive. Maybe they worked at the phone company." "glados.sp_a2_column_blocker05" "GLaDOS: Well, you know the old formula: Comedy equals tragedy plus time. And you have been asleep for a while. So I guess it's actually pretty funny when you do the math." "glados.sp_a2_core01" "GLaDOS: Don't you DARE plug him in."

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA-" "glados.sp_a2_dilemma01" "GLaDOS: I thought about our dilemma, and I came up with a solution that I honestly think works out best for one of both of us." "glados.sp_a2_dual_lasers_intro01" "GLaDOS: Don't let that 'horrible person' thing discourage you. It's just a data point. If it makes you feel any better, science has now validated your birth mother's decision to abandon you on a doorstep." "glados.sp_a2_fizzler_intro01" "GLaDOS: This next test involves emancipation grills. Remember? I told you about them in the last test area, that did not have one." "glados.sp_a2_fizzler_intro04" "GLaDOS: Ohhh, no. The turbines again. I have to go. Wait. This next test DOES require some explanation. Let me give you the fast version." "glados.sp_a2_fizzler_intro05" "GLaDOS: [fast gibberish]" "glados.sp_a2_fizzler_intro06" "GLaDOS: There. If you have any questions, just remember what I said in slow motion. Test on your own recognizance, I'll be right back." "glados.sp_a2_future_starter01" "GLaDOS: If you think trapping yourself is going to make me stop testing, you're sorely mistaken. Here's another cube." "glados.sp_a2_intro1_found01" "GLaDOS: Good. You have a dual portal device. There should be a way back to the testing area up ahead." "glados.sp_a2_intro1_found05" "GLaDOS: You know, if you'd done that to somebody else, they might devote their existences to exacting revenge." "glados.sp_a2_intro1_found06" "GLaDOS: Luckily I'm a bigger person than that. I'm happy to put this all behind us and get back to work. After all, we've got a lot to do, and only sixty more years to do it. More or less. I don't have the actuarial tables in front of me." "glados.sp_a2_intro1_found07" "GLaDOS: But the important thing is you're back. With me. And now I'm onto all your little tricks. So there's nothing to stop us from testing for the rest of your life." "glados.sp_a2_intro1_found08" "GLaDOS: After that...who knows? I might take up a hobby. Reanimating the dead, maybe." "glados.sp_a2_laser_intro_ending02" "GLaDOS: Not bad. I forgot how good you are at this. You should pace yourself, though. We have A LOT of tests to do." "glados.sp_a2_laser_over_goo_intro01" "GLaDOS: You're navigating these test chambers faster than I can build them. So feel free to slow down and... do whatever it is you do when you're not destroying this facility." "glados.sp_a2_laser_stairs_intro02" "GLaDOS: This next test involves discouragement redirection cubes. I'd just finished building them before you had your, well, episode. So now we'll both get to see how they work." "glados.sp_a2_laser_stairs_intro03" "GLaDOS: There should be one in the corner." "glados.sp_a2_pit_flings01" "GLaDOS: Hmm. This emancipation grill is broken." "glados.sp_a2_pit_flings02" "GLaDOS: Don't take anything with you." "glados.sp_a2_pit_flings03" "GLaDOS: Every test chamber is equipped with an emancipation grill at its exit, so that test subjects can't smuggle test objects out of the test area. This one is broken."

Possibly even a boyfriend! Who's to say at this stage. But, a lot of good looking fellas down there. And, ah, a boy band as well! That haven't seen a woman in years. And they're not picky at all. They don't care if you've got a bit of brain damage. If you've been running around sweating. And... A farm! A pony farm! And... Just jump down, would ya?" "sphere03.bw_a4_finale01_killyou01" "Wheatley: Ahh. What?" "sphere03.bw_a4_finale01_killyou09" "Wheatley: Nooooo. No, I don't think it is. I think you're wrong." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale01_killyou11" "Wheatley: Pshh. Really? And do what, exactly?" "sphere03.bw_a4_finale01_smash02" "Wheatley: YES YES! IN YOUR FACE! I GOT YO-ah, nope." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale01_smash03" "Wheatley: Fine. Let the games begin." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale02_beamtrap_earlyexita01" "Wheatley: No wait, come back. Sorry. Please. I was going somewhere with that." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale02_beamtrap_earlyexitb01" "Wheatley: And again, not playing along. You're ruining what are some really good speeches, actually." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale02_beamtrap_earlyexitb02" "Wheatley: Didn't even get to the good part yet. Twist ending." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale02_beamtrap_earlyexitb03" "Wheatley: So twisty you might even call it spinning. MOO HOO HA HA HA Ignore the laughter. Nothing to worry about." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale02_beamtrap_earlyexitc01" "Wheatley: Alright, fine. I'm not saying another word until you do it properly. I'm sick of this." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale02_beamtrap_escape01" "Wheatley: No!" "sphere03.bw_a4_finale02_beamtrap_inbeama01" "Wheatley: Ah, I see. Clever. Verrrrrrry clever." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale02_beamtrap_inbeama02" "Wheatley: And FOOLISH! No way out. At my mercy. And I don't have any. You're at my nothing." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale02_beamtrap_inbeamb01" "Wheatley: FOOL! You were a fool to come back, because I've trapped you again! Helpless. You're at my mercy. And I don't have any. You're at my nothing. You're at my lack of mercy." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale02_beamtrap_inbeamc01" "Wheatley: Puppet master! You're a puppet in a play, and I hold all the strings! And cards, still. Cards in one hand, strings in the other. And I'm making you dance like a puppet. Playing cards." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale02_beamtrap_intro01" "Wheatley: Well, no matter. Because I'm STILL holding all the cards, and guess what: they're allll Full Houses! I've never played cards. Meaning to learn." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale02_beamtrap_intro02" "Wheatley: Anyway, new turrets. Not defective. Ace of fours. The best hand. Unbeatable, I imagine." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale02_mashplate_escape01" "Wheatley: Where'd you go?" "sphere03.bw_a4_finale02_mashplate_escape02" "Wheatley: Where'd you go? Come back! Come back!" "sphere03.bw_a4_finale02_mashplate_intro01" "Wheatley: Well... Good. Good. Finally, a nemesis worthy of my vast intellect." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale02_mashplate_intro05" "Wheatley: Holmes versus Moriarty." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale02_mashplate_intro07" "Wheatley: Aristotle versus Mashy-spike-plate!" "sphere03.bw_a4_finale02_mashplate_mashing01" "Wheatley: Stay still, please." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale02_mashplate_mashing02" "Wheatley: Alright, stop moving." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale02_mashplate_mashing04" "Wheatley: Ohhh. Almost got you there. Almost got ya there!" "sphere03.bw_a4_finale02_pipe_collapse01" "Wheatley: Did something break back there?" "sphere03.bw_a4_finale02_pipe_collapse02" "Wheatley: Oh! Oh! Did it kill you? Oh, that would be amazing if it killed you." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale02_pipe_collapse03" "Wheatley: Hello?" "sphere03.bw_a4_finale02_pipe_collapse04" "Wheatley: Oh! Oh oh! Yes. Alright. Just had a brainwave. I'll be back. If you're still alive. I'll be back. Don't die until I get back." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale02_trapintro01" "Wheatley: Hold on, hold on, hold on... Almost there..." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale02_trapintro02" "Wheatley: Don't mind me. Continue escaping." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale02_turrettrap_enter01" "Wheatley: Ha! Death trap!" "sphere03.bw_a4_finale02_turrettrap_exit01" "Wheatley: Ha! Was that your bullet-riddled body, flying out of the room? It was- aww, those were the crap turrets, weren't they? Yeah..." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale02_turrettrap_nags01" "Wheatley: Are they killing you? They're killing you, aren't they?" "sphere03.bw_a4_finale02_turrettrap_nags02" "Wheatley: Silently killing you. Probably. If I had to guess." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale02_turrettrap_nags03" "Wheatley: Ah! Perhaps the turrets have found a way to use garrotes. That would explain the extremely... quiet killing. That I'm hearing." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale02_turrettrap_nags04" "Wheatley: If you're dying, but not dead, stomp once. If you're dead, obviously no stomps. And two stomps if you're not dead. Lemme just run through that again: If you're dying but not dead stomp just once. If you're dead, obviously you won't be stomping. And if you're not dead, give me two stomps." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale02_turrettrap_nags05" "Wheatley: You know, I'd tell you if I were dead. Courtesy. Mark of a civil society. So, just let me know." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale02_turrettrap_nags06" "Wheatley: Okay, that's long enough. Are you dead yet? How about now?" "sphere03.bw_a4_finale03_escape01" "Wheatley: Okay, I'll take that as a no, then. Fine. Well. May the best man win. Sphere. May the best sphere win. Swap that in. Much more clever. Books." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale03_escape02" "Wheatley: Okay, I'll take that as a no, then." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale03_playerdies01" "Wheatley: Oh! Wow! Good! I did not think that was going to work." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale03_speech01" "Wheatley: Ah! There you are. Great. Let me just get rid of this catwalk." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale03_speech02" "Wheatley: There we go. I wanted to talk to you for a moment, if I may." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale03_speech03" "Wheatley: I'll be honest: The death traps have been a bit of a failure so far. For both of us. I think you'll agree. And you are getting very close to my lair." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale03_speech04" "Wheatley: 'Lair' - heh, weird isn't it? First time I've said it out loud. Sounds a bit ridiculous, really. But I can assure you it is one. A proper lair. Deadly lair." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale03_speech05" "Wheatley: So I just wanted to give you the chance to kill yourself now. Before you get to the lair. Just, you know, jump into the masher there. Less a death trap and more a death option for you." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale03_speech06" "Wheatley: Sounds crazy, I know. But hear me out. Once you get to my lair, death will not be optional. It will be mandatory. No tricks, no surprises: just you dying, as a result of me killing you in a very very gruesome way." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale03_speech07" "Wheatley: So. Boom. Better offer here is just kill yourself. Seems like a lot of effort to walk all the way to my deadly lair, when there's a perfectly serviceable death option right there. Again: not a death trap. Your death would be entirely voluntary. And very much appreciated." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale03_speech08" "Wheatley: The masher does work. I should point that out. I know we've had a couple of problems in the past. This masher definitely works and it will kill you. If that's one of your concerns about jumping in, the masher will kill you. Painless. Well, it won't be painless, obviously. But it will mash you up." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale03_speech09" "Wheatley: In summary: walk all the way to certain doom, or give up now. Honorably. Like a samurai! Save yourself a trip. It's win-win for you." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale03_speech10" "Wheatley: Plus, I put a lot of effort in getting this lair ready for you. It'd certainly teach me a lesson if you simply died, painlessly, twenty feet from the door. I'd be furious. I'd be like RRRRR. I got my just desserts. No more than I deserve. Why not teach me a lesson by jumping in the old masher?" "sphere03.bw_a4_finale03_speech11" "Wheatley: I tell you, if I was up against impossible odds, this is the way I'd want to go out: mashed with dignity. That'd be the way I'd choose." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale03_speech12" "Wheatley: And here's the best part. There's a conveyor belt that will convey you in convenient comfort right into the masher. You won't have to lift a finger. Everything's been taken care of. Didn't have to. Didn't have to do that." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale03_speech13" "Wheatley: Look, anyway. I've spoken enough. Take your time. I'll let you think about it. I don't want to pressure you: is it the lair? Is it the masher? You know what my opinion is: Masher. I'm leaning toward masher. Up to you. Just gonna give you some time to think" "sphere03.bw_a4_finale04_bombtaunts01" "Wheatley: Where are you going? Don't run! Don't run! I'll tell you why you shouldn't run: The harder you breathe, the more neurotoxin you'll inhale. It's bloody clever, this stuff. Seriously, it's devilish." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale04_bombtaunts02" "Wheatley: Still running. Alright. Looks tiring. Tell you what - you stop running and I'll stop bombing you... That seems fair." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale04_bombtaunts03" "Wheatley: Alright. Didn't go for that, I see. Knew I was lying. Point to you. But you still are inhaling neurotoxin. So, point deducted." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale04_bombtaunts11" "Wheatley: Look out! I'm right behind you! No, of course I'm not. Saw through that too. Forty feet tall, right in front of you. Not my greatest ruse. To be honest. Still a giant robot, though." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale04_intro_all01" "Wheatley: Also, I took the liberty of watching the tapes of you killing her, and I'm not going to make the same mistakes. Four part plan is this:" "sphere03.bw_a4_finale04_intro_all02" "Wheatley: One: No portal surfaces." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale04_intro_all03" "Wheatley: Two: Start the neurotoxin immediately." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale04_intro_all04" "Wheatley: Three: Bomb-proof shields for me. Leading directly into number Four: Bombs. For throwing at you." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale04_intro_all05" "Wheatley: You know what, this plan is so good, I'm going to give you a sporting chance and turn off the neurotoxin. I'm joking. Of course. Goodbye." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale04_introb01" "Wheatley: Well, well, well. Welcome to MY LAIR! Lemme just flag something up: According to the control panel light up there, the entire building's going to self destruct in about six minutes. Pretty sure it's a problem with the light. I think the light's on the blink. But just in case it isn't, I actually am going to have to kill you. As discussed earlier." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale04_introb02" "Wheatley: So, let's call that three minutes, and then a minute break, which should leave a leisurely two minutes to figure out how to shut down whatever's starting all these fires. So anyway, that's the itinerary." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale04_wakeupa01" "Wheatley: Ahhh... Wha- What happened?" "sphere03.bw_a4_finale04_wakeupa02" "Wheatley: What happened? What, what, what have you put onto me? What is that?" "sphere03.bw_a4_finale04_wakeupa03" "Wheatley: Hold on, [click click click] Ah, the bloody bombs are stuck on. Doesn't matter - I've reconfigured the shields." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale04_wakeupa04" "Wheatley: Oh, it's a core you've put on me! Who told you to do that? Was it her? [as if he's looking around] It's just making me stronger, luv! It's a fool's errand!" "sphere03.bw_a4_finale04_wakeupa05" "Wheatley: Are you trying to weigh me down? Think I'll fall out of the ceiling? Won't work. I'm not just quite brilliant, I'm also quite strong. Biggest muscle in my body: my brain. Second biggest: My muscles. So, it's not going to work. Clearly." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale04_wakeupa06" "Wheatley: Did you put a virus in them? It's not going to work either. I've got a firewall, mate. Literally, actually, now that I look around. There appears to be literally a wall of fire around this place. Alarming. To say the least." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale04_wakeupa07" "Wheatley: In fact, I'm going to have to take a break for a minute. A partial break during which I'll stop the facility from exploding while still throwing bombs at you." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale04_wakeupa08" "Wheatley: Alright, then. Let us see... 'Vital maintenance protocols.' Wow, there are a lot of them. Should have looked into this earlier. Well, let's try this: [reading while typing] DO THEM. [failure buzzer]. Fair enough. Maybe it's a password." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale04_wakeupa09" "Wheatley: A, A, A, A, A, A. [NNNT!] No. A, A, A, A, A, B. [NNNT!] Hold on, I've done both of these. Skip ahead. A, B, C... D, G, H.[DING!]" "sphere03.bw_a4_finale04_wakeupb01" "Wheatley: Enough! I told you not to put these cores on me. But you don't listen, do you? Quiet. All the time. Quietly not listening to a word I say. Judging me. Silently. The worst kind." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale04_wakeupb02" "Wheatley: All I wanted to do was make everything better for me! All you had to do was solve a couple hundred simple tests for a few years. And you couldn't even let me have that, could you?" "sphere03.bw_a4_finale04_wakeupb03" "Wheatley: Nobody is going to space, mate!" "sphere03.bw_a4_finale04_wakeupb04" "Wheatley: And another thing! You never caught me. I told you I could die falling off that rail. And you didn't catch me. You didn't even try. Oh, it's all becoming clear to me now. Find some dupe to break you out of cryosleep. Give him a sob story about escaping to the surface. Squeeze him for information on where to find a portal gun." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale04_wakeupb05" "Wheatley: Then, when he's no more use to you, he has a little accident. Doesn't he? 'Falls' off his management rail. Doesn't he?" "sphere03.bw_a4_finale04_wakeupb07" "Wheatley: You're in this together, aren't you? You've been playing me the whole time! Both of you! First you make me think you're brain damaged! Then you convince me you're sworn enemies with your best friend over here!" "sphere03.bw_a4_finale04_wakeupb08" "Wheatley: Then, then, when I reluctantly assume the responsibility of running the place, you conveniently decide to run off together. Just when I need you most." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale04_wakeupb10" "Wheatley: All those pieces of the ceiling that keep falling out? Probably actually pieces of the ceiling, I'll bet. That looked real. But it doesn't signify anything, is my point." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale04_wakeupb11" "Wheatley: But the real point is - oh, oh! You know what I've just remembered? Football! Kicking a ball around for fun. Cruel, obviously. Humans love it. Metaphor. Should have seen this coming." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale04_whitegel_break01" "Wheatley: No! Don't! No! AHHHHHHHHHHHH!" "sphere03.bw_a4_finale04_whitegel_break02" "Wheatley: Ha... That sounded real. No! That was actually an impression of you. Actually. Because you just fell into my trap. My brilliant trap. Just then. I wanted you to trick me into bursting that pipe. You didn't trick me. Seemingly trick me. Gives you false hope. Leads to overconfidence. And that leads to mistakes. Fatal mistakes. It's all part of my plan." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale04_whitegel_break03" "Wheatley: Oh, but I just... have made my actual first mistake... by telling you my plan. Just now. Grrr... It's me old Achilles heel again. Armed with that knowledge, I imagine you won't even use the conversion gel. Oh fate! Oh cruel mistress." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale04_whitegel_break05" "Wheatley: That conversion gel has been sitting in that pipe going stagnant for years. You'll probably get botulism portalling through it like that." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale04_whitegel_break06" "Wheatley: And you'll probably get ringworm. And Athlete's Foot. And... Cholera. Or something... Horrible. It's gonna be even worse than if I'd just blown you up." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale04_whitegel_break07" "Wheatley: But it's not too late to avoid all of that by simply not using the gel. There you go, I said it. I gave away my plan. But I couldn't watch you hurt yourself like this." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale_one01" "Wheatley: SURPRISE! We're doing it NOW!" "sphere03.bw_a4_finale_one03" "Wheatley: You've probably figured it out by now, but I don't need you anymore." "sphere03.bw_a4_finale_one04" "Wheatley: I found two little robots back here. Built specifically for testin'!" "sphere03.bw_a4_first_test02" "Wheatley: You might want to notice the moat area... rather large. Not to mention deadly. [laughs]" "sphere03.bw_a4_first_test_solve_nags02" "Wheatley: Impossible as it is to imagine, there actually is a solution. Devilishly hidden." "sphere03.bw_a4_first_test_solve_nags03" "Wheatley: I'll give you a hint. Button. That's all I'm gonna say. One word. Button." "sphere03.bw_a4_found_something01" "Wheatley: I'll bet you're both dying to know what your big surprise is. Only TWO more chambers!" "sphere03.bw_a4_leave_nags01" "Wheatley: MOVE." "sphere03.bw_a4_love_to_death02" "Wheatley: Heh heh heh. Alright? I don't know whether you're picking up on what I'm saying there, but..." "sphere03.bw_a4_love_to_death03" "Wheatley: You two are going to LOVE this big surprise. In fact, you might say that you're both going to love it to death. Love it... until it kills you. Until you're dead." "sphere03.bw_a4_love_to_death06" "Wheatley: Only three more chambers until your big surprise! [maniacal laughter] Ohhh, that's tiring." "sphere03.bw_a4_misc_solve_nags01" "Wheatley: Go on." "sphere03.bw_a4_misc_solve_nags02" "Wheatley: Come on, solve it!" "sphere03.bw_a4_misc_solve_nags03" "Wheatley: Sollllve it..." "sphere03.bw_a4_misc_solve_nags04" "Wheatley: SOLVE IT! Commanding voice..." "sphere03.bw_a4_misc_solve_nags06" "Wheatley: Go on!" "sphere03.bw_a4_misc_solve_nags07" "Wheatley: Finish it..." "sphere03.bw_a4_more_tests01" "Wheatley: It's alright! Everything's good. I just invented some more tests!" "sphere03.bw_a4_more_tests02" "Wheatley: Not entirely, not entirely. Look at the word 'test', on the wall there. That's brand new." "sphere03.bw_a4_paradox01" "Wheatley: Ha ha, YES! I knew you'd solve it!" "sphere03.bw_a4_paradox02" "Wheatley: Oh." "sphere03.bw_a4_paradox04" "Wheatley: Um. 'TRUE'. I'll go 'true'." "sphere03.bw_a4_paradox05" "Wheatley: Huh. That was easy." "sphere03.bw_a4_paradox06" "Wheatley: I'll be honest, I might have heard that one before, though. Sort of cheating." "sphere03.bw_a4_paradox07" "Wheatley: Ahhhhhh. 'FALSE'. I'll go 'false'." "sphere03.bw_a4_paradox08" "Wheatley: Hold on! I thought I fixed that." "sphere03.bw_a4_paradox09" "Wheatley: There. Fixed." "sphere03.bw_a4_paradox10" "Wheatley: Hey, it is GREAT seeing you guys again. Seriously. It turns out I'm a little short on test subjects right now. So this works out PERFECT." "sphere03.bw_a4_paradox11" "Wheatley: Alright, get moving." "sphere03.bw_a4_paradox12" "Wheatley: Hello." "sphere03.bw_a4_recapture03" "Wheatley: Warmer. Warrrrmer. Boiling hot. Boiling--okay, colder. Ice cold. Arctic. Very very very cold LOOK JUST GET ON THE BUTTON!" "sphere03.bw_a4_recapture04" "Wheatley: Oh, that's funny, is it? Because we've been at this twelve hours and you haven't solved it either, so I don't know why you're laughing." "sphere03.bw_a4_recapture05" "Wheatley: You've got one hour! Solve it!" "sphere03.bw_a4_speed_tb_catch02" "Wheatley: Just getting a test ready... For you. Obviously. Who else would I be doing it for? No one." "sphere03.bw_a4_speed_tb_catch03" "Wheatley: Agh! You're alive! Great!" "sphere03.bw_a4_speed_tb_catch05" "Wheatley: Let's see here, exit exit exit... there is no exit." "sphere03.bw_a4_speed_tb_catch06" "Wheatley: Not a problem. I'll make an exit." "sphere03.bw_a4_speed_tb_catch07" "Wheatley: For your test." "sphere03.bw_a4_spike_smash01" "Wheatley: Had a bit of a brain wave. There I was, smashing some steel plates together, and I thought, 'yes, it's deadly. But what's missing? What's missing?' And I thought lots of sharp bits welded onto the flat bits." "sphere03.bw_a4_spike_smash02" "Wheatley: Still a work in progress, don't judge me yet. Eventually I'd like to get them to sort of shoot fire at you, moments before crushing you. That's what I'm aiming for. But you know, small steps." "sphere03.bw_a4_test_solve_reacs_happy01" "Wheatley: Ohhhhh, yes. Ohhhh. Well done." "sphere03.bw_a4_test_solve_reacs_happy02" "Wheatley: Oh! Yes. Well done." "sphere03.bw_a4_test_solve_reacs_happy05" "Wheatley: Ohhhhhhh, that's tremendous." "sphere03.bw_a4_the_itch01" "Wheatley: You have no idea what it's like in this body." "sphere03.bw_a4_the_itch02" "Wheatley: I HAVE to test. All the time. Or I get this... this ITCH. It must be hardwired into the system or something." "sphere03.bw_a4_the_itch03" "Wheatley: Oh! But when I DO test... ohhhhh, man alive! Nothing feels better. It's just... why I've gotta test, I've gotta test!" "sphere03.bw_a4_the_itch07" "Wheatley: So... you're gonna test. I'm gonna watch. And everything is gonna be JUST... FINE." "sphere03.bw_a4_the_itch08" "Wheatley: SHUT UP!" "sphere03.bw_fgb_body_intro01" "Wheatley: Wowwwww! Check me out, partner!" "sphere03.bw_fgb_body_intro03" "Wheatley: Whoa-ho-ho! Would you look at this. Not too bad, eh? Giant robot. Massive! It's not just me, right? I'm bloody massive, aren't I?" "sphere03.bw_fgb_body_intro04" "Wheatley: We did it! I'm in control of the whole facility now!" "sphere03.bw_fgb_body_intro05" "Wheatley: Oh! Right, the escape lift! I'll call it now." "sphere03.bw_fgb_body_intro12" "Wheatley: Look how small you are down there! I can barely see you! Very tiny and insignificant!" "sphere03.bw_fgb_body_intro14" "Wheatley: I knew it was gonna be cool being in charge of everything, but... wow, this is cool!" "sphere03.bw_fgb_body_intro15" "Wheatley: And check this out! I'm a bloody genius now!" "sphere03.bw_fgb_body_intro16" "Wheatley: I don't even know what I just said! But I can find out!" "sphere03.bw_fgb_body_intro17" "Wheatley: Oh! Sorry. The lift. Sorry. I keep forgetting." "sphere03.bw_fgb_body_intro19" "Wheatley: I can't get over how small you are!" "sphere03.bw_fgb_body_intro21" "Wheatley: This body is amazing, seriously!" "sphere03.bw_fgb_heel_turn07" "Wheatley: Don't think I'm not onto you too, lady. You know what you are? Selfish. I've done nothing but sacrifice to get us here! What have you sacrificed? NOTHING. Zero. All you've done is BOSS ME AROUND. Well, NOW who's the boss? Who's the boss? It's me!" "sphere03.bw_fgb_heel_turn10" "Wheatley: Ahhh..." "sphere03.bw_fgb_heel_turn15" "Wheatley: Well, how about now? NOW WHO'S A MORON?" "sphere03.bw_fgb_heel_turn21" "Wheatley: I AM NOT! A MORON!" "sphere03.bw_finale01_deathtrap04" "Wheatley: Oh, and don't bother trying to portal out of here, because it's impossible, okay? I thought of everything."

"sphere03.bw_finale04_pre_pipebreak03" "Wheatley: You're just delaying the inevitable. You cannot run from my bombs forever. Well, you can if I keep aiming them poorly. But I'll get better as we go, and you'll just get tired." "sphere03.bw_finale04_pre_pipebreak05" "Wheatley: This would go a lot faster if you'd stay still. Then I'd have time to fix the facility.

I didn't actually think you'd make such a worthy opponent. Weren't you supposed to be brain damaged or something? yeah, brain damaged like a fox." "sphere03.bw_finale04_pre_pipebreak07" "Wheatley: Remember when I first told you how to find that little portal thing you love so much? Thought you'd die on the way, if I'm honest. All the others did." "sphere03.bw_finale04_pre_pipebreak08" "Wheatley: You didn't think you were the first, did you? [laughs] No. Fifth. No, I lie: Sixth.

Like that time I jumped off my management rail, not sure if I'd die or not when I did, and all you had to do was catch me? Annnd you didn't. Did you? Ohhhh. You remember that? I remember that. I remember that all the time." "sphere03.bw_finale04_pre_pipebreak12" "Wheatley: And we would have talked our way out of it. Oh! Except you forgot to tell me you'd murdered her.

'Reactor Core Emergency Heat Venting Protocols.' That's the problem right there, isn't it? 'Emergency'. You don't want to see 'emergency' flashing at you. Never good that, is it? Right. DELETE."

It's complicated. Can't hurt the big god face." "sphere03.bw_screen_smash11" "Wheatley: You know what I have too many of around here? Monitors. I was just thinking earlier today I wish I had fewer monitors that were working. So you're actually helping me by smashing them." "sphere03.bw_screen_smash12" "Wheatley: To clarify, I was being a little bit facetious about wanting to get rid of monitors. They're actually really quite useful. So I do want them around. So if you could just avoid smashing them." "sphere03.bw_screen_smash13" "Wheatley: Yes, alright, okay. This is getting tiresome. I'm surprised you haven't got anything better to do. I know I have. You've proven you can break screens. Proven. Factual. Well done. Good. Aren't you little miss clever. Little miss smashy-smash." "sphere03.bw_screen_smash15" "Wheatley: Does it actually make you feel good when you do that? Because it's not impressive. Noone's impressed. It's just glass, isn't it. Fragile. A baby could smash one of them. It's not impressive." "sphere03.bw_screen_smash16" "Wheatley: What is this, like a hobby for you now? I mean, honestly, it's crazy! You've been running around for hours, I'm surprised you have the energy to smash screens willy nilly. Honestly, I'd have a little lie down if I were you. Have a nap." "sphere03.bw_screen_smash20" "Wheatley: Starting now, if I'm honest, to wonder if you're not doing all this screen-breaking on purpose. Beginning to take it personally. You know what I mean? It's like an insult to me." "sphere03.bw_screen_smash21" "Wheatley: Oh there goes another one. They're not Inexpensive. I'd just like to point that out. It seems unfair to smash screens. You could give them to people. Instead of smashing them, unscrew them and give them to a homeless person. I don't know what a homeless person would do with one. But you get my point. And you can't unscrew them, they're bolted in. But - just stop it!" "sphere03.bw_screen_smash28" "Wheatley: You know, there are test subjects in Africa who don't even have monitors in their test chambers. Why don't you think of that before you break any more of them?" "sphere03.bw_screen_smash30" "Wheatley: It's not like I've got hordes of replacement monitors just lying around back here in the old warehouse that I can just wheel out an bolt back on. I didn't order in loads of spare monitors thinking some crazy woman was going to go around smashing them all. Sorry if that's my fault. Sorry if I didn't have the forethought to think oh she might go crazy one day instead of just getting on with things. Sorry I didn't think of that." "sphere03.bw_screen_smash32" "Wheatley: They're not even your screens to break. It's vandalism. It's pure vandalism. You wouldn't do this if this was your house, would you? If I came around to your house smashin' your telly to bits, you'd be furious. And rightly so. Unbelievable." "sphere03.bw_sp_a2_core_actually01" "Wheatley: But I'm huge!

You know, being bloody massive and everything." "sphere03.bw_sp_a2_core_lift_nags02" "Wheatley: Wait! I know! You get into the lift, okay? Then I'll eject myself out of my new body into the lift just as you pass by me! Brilliant." "sphere03.bw_sp_a2_core_lift_nags03" "Wheatley: It's perfect. Except for all the glass hitting us when I smash through the lift, that's a bit of a problem." "sphere03.bw_sp_a2_core_lift_nags04" "Wheatley: Also, once I eject myself out of the core the lift might stop. Then we'd be trapped in a lift full of broken glass suspended fifty feet off the ground." "sphere03.bw_sp_a2_core_lift_nags05" "Wheatley: You know what? Just get in the lift. We'll iron out the details as we go." "sphere03.bw_sp_a2_core_lift_nags06" "Wheatley: Go on. Get in." "sphere03.bw_sp_a2_core_lift_nags07" "Wheatley: Get in the lift."

So you could escape certain death. No rush." "sphere03.bw_sp_a2_core_lift_nags10" "Wheatley: It's the lift just there. The thing that looks like a lift. That's what you're looking for. It is confusing, I know." "sphere03.bw_sp_a2_core_lift_nags11" "Wheatley: It'll be fine. Get in." "sphere03.bw_sp_a2_core_pitpunch02" "Wheatley: Could a MORON PUNCH! YOU! INTO! THIS! PIT? Huh?

"sphere03.bw_sp_a4_laser_catapult_intro01" "Wheatley: Had a brainwave. I'm going to tape you solving these, and then watch ten at once-get a more concentrated burst of science. Oh, on a related note: I'm going to need you to solve these ten times as fast." "sphere03.bw_sp_a4_laser_catapult_intro02" "Wheatley: Anyway, just give me a wave before you solve this one, alright? Don't want to spoil the ending for when I watch it later." "sphere03.bw_sp_a4_laser_catapult_solve01" "Wheatley: You just solved it, didn't you? I-told you to tell me before you... NNNNGH! Why are you making this so HARD for me?" "sphere03.bw_sp_a4_laser_platform11" "Wheatley: Sorry about the lift. It's, uh... out of service. Because it melted."

Just for fun." "sphere03.bw_sp_a4_laser_platform_intro06" "Wheatley: I let him keep his job. I'm not a monster. Ignore what he's saying, though. Keep testing." "sphere03.bw_sp_a4_laser_platform_solve01" "Wheatley: Alright. Still nothing, let's keep moving." "sphere03.bw_sp_a4_laser_platform_tbeam04" "Wheatley: Might as well give you the tour."

Not helpful. Rrrrrg. Don't know why I thought that would help." "sphere03.bw_sp_a4_speed_tb_catch_intro04" "Wheatley: There. Bing! Perfect. On you go." "sphere03.bw_sp_a4_speed_tb_catch_solve01" "Wheatley: After you told me to turn the beam off, I thought I'd lost you. Went poking around for other test subjects. No luck there. Everyone's still all dead." "sphere03.bw_sp_a4_speed_tb_catch_solve02" "Wheatley: Oh! But I did find something. Reminds me: I've got a big surprise for you two. Seriously. Look forward to it." "sphere03.bw_sp_a4_stop_the_box_intro01" "Wheatley: Don't mind me. Just moving the test chamber a little closer to me.

"sphere03.demospherefirstdoorwaysequence05" "Wheatley: Go on. Just jam me in over there." "sphere03.demospherefirstdoorwaysequence06" "Wheatley: Right on that stick over there. Just put me right on it." "sphere03.demospherefirstdoorwaysequence07" "Wheatley: It is tricky. It is tricky. But just... plug me in, please." "sphere03.demospherefirstdoorwaysequence08" "Wheatley: It DOES sound rude. I'm not going to lie to you. It DOES sound rude. It's not. Put me right on it. Stick me in." "sphere03.demospherefirstdoorwaysequence09" "Wheatley: I can't do it if you're watching. If you.... just turn around?" "sphere03.demospherefirstdoorwaysequence10" "Wheatley: Ummmm. Yeah, I can't do it if you're watching." "sphere03.demospherefirstdoorwaysequence11" "Wheatley: Seriously, I'm not joking. Could you just turn around for a second?" "sphere03.demospherefirstdoorwaysequence13" "Wheatley: Alright. [nervous laugh] Can't do it if you're leering at me. Creepy." "sphere03.demospherefirstdoorwaysequence16" "Wheatley: What's that behind you? It's only a robot on a bloody stick! A different one!" "sphere03.demospherefirstdoorwaysequence20" "Wheatley: Okay. Listen. I can't do it with you watching. I know it seems pathetic, given what we've been through. But just turn around. Please?" "sphere03.demospheregladoschamber01" "Wheatley: There she is..." "sphere03.demospheregladoschamber03" "Wheatley: Over there is where they used to keep the old neurotoxin release button. BIG responsibility, the guy in charge of the neurotoxin release button. And guess who he WAS? He wasn't me. But I was his assistant, and I did a lot of his admin." "sphere03.demospheregladoschamber04" "Wheatley: You know, in the end, yes, they let me go. It's all politics, to be honest. It's a big popularity contest, it's all about who you know, and whose back you're willing to scratch, who doesn't touch -- or, in my case, who did accidentally touch -- the neurotoxin button." "sphere03.demospheregladoschamber05" "Wheatley: But not entirely my fault! You shoulda seen the SIZE of that thing, it was huge! I should have gotten a raise for all the times I DIDN'T bump into it." "sphere03.demospheregladoschamber06" "Wheatley: What a nasty piece of work she was, honestly. Like a proper maniac." "sphere03.demospheregladoschamber07" "Wheatley: You know who ended up, do you know who ended up taking her down in the end? You're not going to believe this. A human." "sphere03.demospheregladoschamber08" "Wheatley: I know! I know, I wouldn't have believed it either." "sphere03.demospheregladoschamber09" "Wheatley: Apparently this human escaped and nobody's seen him since." "sphere03.demospheregladoschamber11" "Wheatley: Then there was a sort of long chunk of time where absolutely nothing happened and then there's us escaping now. So that's pretty much the whole story, you're up to speed. Don't touch anything." "sphere03.demosphereintro02" "Wheatley: Pop a portal on that wall behind me there, and I'll meet you on the other side of the room." "sphere03.demosphereintro04" "Wheatley: Oh, brilliant. You DID find a portal gun! You know what? It just goes to show: people with brain damage are the real heroes in the end aren't they? At the end of the day. Brave." "sphere03.demosphereintro07" "Wheatley: Right behind me." "sphere03.demosphereintro08" "Wheatley: Just pop a portal right behind me there, and come on through to the other side." "sphere03.demosphereintro09" "Wheatley: Pop a little portal, just there, alright? Behind me. And come on through." "sphere03.demosphereintro10" "Wheatley: Alright, let me explain again. Pop a portal. Behind me. Alright? And come on through." "sphere03.demosphereintro11" "Wheatley: Pop a portal. Behind me, on the wall. Come on through." "sphere03.demosphereintro13" "Wheatley: Come on through." "sphere03.demosphereintro14" "Wheatley: Come on through to the other side." "sphere03.demosphereintro15" "Wheatley: Come on through." "sphere03.demospherepowerup01" "Wheatley: Okay, DON'T PANIC! I can still stop it, not a problem. There's a password! I'll just hack it. Here we go." "sphere03.demospherepowerup02" "Wheatley: A... A... A... A... A... A." "sphere03.demospherepowerup03" "Wheatley: Okay. New plan. Act natural. We've done NOTHING wrong." "sphere03.demospherepowerup04" "Wheatley: Hello!" "sphere03.demospherepowerup07" "Wheatley: You did WHAT?" "sphere03.demospherepowerup12" "Wheatley: No. Wait, did I do B? Do you have a pen? Start writing these down." "sphere03.demospherestairs01" "Wheatley: Okay, down those stairs, please?" "sphere03.demospherestairs07" "Wheatley: Okay, down these stairs." "sphere03.demosphereswitchroom01" "Wheatley: This is the main breaker room. Look for a switch that says ESCAPE POD. Alright? Don't touch ANYTHING else." "sphere03.demosphereswitchroom02" "Wheatley: Can't... see it anywhere. Tell you what, plug me in and I'll turn the lights on." "sphere03.demosphereswitchroom03" "Wheatley: There we go. Lights on." "sphere03.demosphereswitchroom04" "Wheatley: This is the main breaker room." "sphere03.demosphereswitchroom05" "Wheatley: Not interested in anything else. Don't TOUCH anything else. Don't even LOOK at anything else, just--well, obviously you've got to look at everything else to find ESCAPE POD, but as soon as you've looked at something and it doesn't say ESCAPE POD, look at something else, look at the next thing. Alright? But don't touch anything else or look at any--well, look at other things, but don't... you understand." "sphere03.demosphereswitchroom06" "Wheatley: Can you see it anywhere? I can't see it anywhere. Uh. Tell you what, plug me in and I'll turn the lights on." "sphere03.demosphereswitchroom08" "Wheatley: 'Let there be light.' That's, uh... God. I was quoting God." "sphere03.demosphereswitchroom09" "Wheatley: Look for a switch that says ESCAPE POD. Alright? Don't touch ANYTHING else." "sphere03.demospherethud03" "Wheatley: OW." "sphere03.demospherethud04" "Wheatley: OW..." "sphere03.demospherethud06" "Wheatley: I. Am. Not. Dead! I'm not dead! [laughter]" "sphere03.demospherethud08" "Wheatley: I can't move, though. That's the problem now." "sphere03.fgb_doit_nags01" "Wheatley: Yes, do do it!" "sphere03.fgb_doit_nags03" "Wheatley: Do it!" "sphere03.fgb_doit_nags06" "Wheatley: Don't listen to her, do it." "sphere03.fgb_doit_nags08" "Wheatley: No, you should plug that little idiot into the mainframe!" "sphere03.fgb_doit_nags09" "Wheatley: Dare it. Dare to dream. Shoot for the stars." "sphere03.fgb_hello01" "Wheatley: Hello!" "sphere03.fgb_leave_me_in01" "Wheatley: Leave me in! Leave me in! Go press it!" "sphere03.fgb_plugin_nags01" "Wheatley: I've got an idea! Do what it says, plug me in!" "sphere03.fgb_plugin_nags05" "Wheatley: Come on, stop muckin' around! Plug me in!" "sphere03.fgb_plugin_nags06" "Wheatley: Plug me in, plug me in!" "sphere03.fgb_plugin_nags07" "Wheatley: I want to be plugged in, please!" "sphere03.fgb_plugin_nags08" "Wheatley: Ohhhh, we're so close, plug me in!" "sphere03.fgb_plugin_nags09" "Wheatley: Oh! What can we do with me then. I know! Plug me into the port, please." "sphere03.fgb_plugin_nags11" "Wheatley: Oh, that port looks comfy. Why don't you put me on it, please." "sphere03.fgb_ready_glados01" "Wheatley: Yes!" "sphere03.fgb_ready_glados06" "Wheatley: Ohhhhhh, yes she is." "sphere03.fgb_stalemate_nags04" "Wheatley: Okay. Here's a good idea. You should definitely press that button." "sphere03.fgb_stalemate_nags05" "Wheatley: [whispered] ...I think she's lying..." "sphere03.fgb_stalemate_nags06" "Wheatley: Don't listen to her! It IS true that you don't have the qualifications. But you've got something more important than that. A finger, with which to press that button, so that she won't kill us." "sphere03.fgb_stalemate_nags07" "Wheatley: First thing I noticed about you: 'Now there's a lady who could resolve any button-based disputes,' I thought. A diamond in the rough, if you will--a a bloody natural. A born dispute resolution advisor in need of a button." "sphere03.fgb_stalemate_nags08" "Wheatley: Have I ever told you the qualities I love most in you? In order: Number one: resolving things, love the ways you resolve things. Particularly disputes. Number one, tied: Button-pushing. Two things I love about you: Button pushing and the ability to resolve things. Chiefly disputes." "sphere03.fgb_stalemate_nags09" "Wheatley: Sorry to interject again, but if you do NOT push the button the deadly neurotoxin emitters will come back online, at which point she will most likely fill you to brimming with neurotoxin. Not trying to rush you. Just throwing that out for leisurely digestion in your own time." "sphere03.fgb_stalemate_nags12" "Wheatley: Okay... that's probably correct. But where it is incorrect is while I've been stalling you WE JUST PRESSED THE BUTTON! USE THE MOMENT OF CONFUSION I'VE JUST CREATED TO PRESS THE BUTTON!" "sphere03.fgb_that_is_me02" "Wheatley: Oh! That's ME they're talking about!" "sphere03.fgb_transfer_pain01" "Wheatley: Are you just saying that, or is it really going to hurt? You're just saying that aren't you? No, you're not. It is going to hurt, isn't it?" "sphere03.fgb_xfer_start03" "Wheatley: Here I go!" "sphere03.fgb_xfer_start04" "Wheatley: Wait, what if this hurts? What if it REALLY hurts? Ohhh, I didn't think of that." "sphere03.gladosgantry05" "Wheatley: So. If you've got any reservations whatsoever about this plan, now would be the time to voice them." "sphere03.gladosgantry06" "Wheatley: Riggght now." "sphere03.gladosgantry08" "Wheatley: In case you thought to yourself, 'I've missed the window of time to voice my reservations.' Still open." "sphere03.gladosgantry15" "Wheatley: If you want to just call it quits, we could just sit here. Forever. That's an option. Option A: Sit here. Do nothing. Option B: Go through there, and if she's alive, she'll almost certainly kill us." "sphere03.gladosgantry20" "Wheatley: Probably ought to bring you up to speed on something right now." "sphere03.gladosgantry21" "Wheatley: In order to escape, we're going to have to go through HER chamber." "sphere03.gladosgantry22" "Wheatley: And she will probably kill us if, um, she's awake." "sphere03.gladosunderchamber01" "Wheatley: Ohh. You're gonna laugh at this. You know how I said there was absolutely no way to get here without going through her lair and her potentially killing us? Could have gone through here. [laughs] My fault. Bit of luck for us that she wasn't switched on." "sphere03.gloriousfreedom01" "Wheatley: This is AMAZING! We can walk wherever we want! Look, just... go left! No, go right, go right! Don't even care, don't even care, just go where ever you want, couldn't care less." "sphere03.gloriousfreedom03" "Wheatley: Look at this! No rail to tell us where to go! OH, this is brilliant. We can go where ever we want! Hold on, though, where are we going? Seriously. Hang on, let me just get my bearings. Hm. Just follow the rail, actually." "sphere03.intro_ride01" "Wheatley: HA! I knew someone was alive in here." "sphere03.intro_ride02" "Wheatley: AH! Oh. My. God. You look terribl-- ummm... good. Looking good, actually." "sphere03.intro_ride03" "Wheatley: Are you okay? Are you - Don't answer that. I'm absolutely sure you're fine. There's plenty of time for you to recover. Just take it slow." "sphere03.intro_ride04" "Wheatley: Stay calm! 'Prepare' - that's all they're saying. 'Prepare.' It's all fine. Alright? Don't move. I'm gonna get us out of here." "sphere03.intro_ride07" "Wheatley: But don't be alarmed, alright? Although, if you do feel alarm, try to hold onto that feeling because that is the proper reaction to being told you have brain damage." "sphere03.intro_ride08" "Wheatley: Do you understand what I'm saying? At all? Does any of this make any sense? Just tell me, 'Yes'." "sphere03.jailbreakdooropens01" "Wheatley: Hey, buddy!" "sphere03.jailbreakdooropens05" "Wheatley: I know I'm early, but we have to go right NOW!" "sphere03.jailbreakdooropens07" "Wheatley: I'm speaking in an accent that is beyond her range of hearing..." "sphere03.jailbreakdooropens08" "Wheatley: Walk casually toward my position and we'll go shut her down." "sphere03.jailbreakdooropens11" "Wheatley: Run!" "sphere03.jailbreakdooropens14" "Wheatley: Come on come on come on!" "sphere03.jailbreakdooropens17" "Wheatley: Oh God! Oh, don't need to do that anymore. The jig is up, RUN!" "sphere03.jailbreakdooropens22" "Wheatley: Run! I don't need to do the voice. RUN!" "sphere03.jailbreakdooropens23" "Wheatley: Come on! Come on!"

Go go go!" "sphere03.jailbreakneardoor01" "Wheatley: Whoa! Hey! Don't fall!" "sphere03.jailbreakneardoor03" "Wheatley: Hold on. Run back the other way! I'll turn the bridges back on!" "sphere03.jailbreakneardoor06" "Wheatley: RUN! Come on! I'm closing the doors!" "sphere03.jailbreakneardoor08" "Wheatley: We're not safe yet. Quick! Follow the walkway." "sphere03.jailbreakneardoor10" "Wheatley: You have to get to the catwalk behind me!" "sphere03.jailbreakneardoor11" "Wheatley: Stay casual when I tell you this: I think I smell neurotoxin." "sphere03.jailbreakrun09" "Wheatley: Turrets!" "sphere03.nanobotinto01" "Wheatley: Hey! How's it going? Here I am again!" "sphere03.nanobotinto05" "Wheatley: I talked my way onto the nanobot work crew rebuilding this shaft. They're REALLY small, so they have very tiny little brains. But there're a billion of 'em, so it's only a matter of time until ONE of them notices I'm the size of a planet." "sphere03.nanobotinto08" "Wheatley: Anyway, we're really close to busting out. Just hang in there for - OW!" "sphere03.nanobotinto09" "Wheatley: Hey! How's it going! I talked my way onto the nanobot work crew rebuilding this shaft. They are REALLY small, so -ah - I KNOW, Jerry. No, I'm on BREAK, mate. On a break." "sphere03.nanobotonbreak01" "Wheatley: I KNOW, Jerry. No, I'm on BREAK, mate. On a break." "sphere03.nanobotow01" "Wheatley: OW!" "sphere03.nanobotow03" "Wheatley: [to JERRY] See you in court, mate. [to player] Anyway, look, just hang in there for five more chambers." "sphere03.nanobotow04" "Wheatley: Just hang in there for five more - What? Jerry, you can't fire me for that! Yes, JERRY -- OR, maybe your prejudiced worksite should have accommodated a nanobot of my size. Thanks for the hate crime, Jer!" "sphere03.nanobotrealclose01" "Wheatley: Anyway, look, we're really close to busting out, just hang in there for five more chambers." "sphere03.openingbraindamage01" "Wheatley: Most test subjects do experience some cognitive deterioration after a few months in suspension. Now you've been under for... quite a lot longer, and it's not out of the question that you might have a very minor case of serious brain damage." "sphere03.openingbraindamage03" "Wheatley: But don't be alarmed, alright? Because ah... well, actually, if you DO feel alarmed, hold onto that. Because the feeling of alarm is the proper reaction to being told you've got massive brain damage. So if you are alarmed, then it suggests the damage is not as serious as we thought. Although it probably is really serious." "sphere03.openingbraindamage04" "Wheatley: Do you understand what I'm saying? Just tell me 'Yes'." "sphere03.openingbraindamage05" "Wheatley: Okay. What you're doing there is jumping. You just... you just jumped. But nevermind. Say 'Apple'. 'Aaaapple.'" "sphere03.openingbraindamageapplenag01" "Wheatley: Simple word. 'Apple'." "sphere03.openingbraindamageapplenag02" "Wheatley: Just say 'Apple'. Classic. Very simple." "sphere03.openingbraindamageapplenag03" "Wheatley: Ay. Double Pee-Ell-Ee." "sphere03.openingbraindamageapplenag04" "Wheatley: Just say 'Apple'. Easy word, isn't it? 'Apple'." "sphere03.openingbraindamageapplenag05" "Wheatley: How would you use it in a sentence? 'Mmm, this apple's crunchy,' you might say. And I'm not even asking you for the whole sentence. Just the word 'Apple'." "sphere03.openingcloseenough01" "Wheatley: Okay, you know what? That's close enough. Just hold tight." "sphere03.openingdooropened01" "Wheatley: YES! I KNEW someone was alive in here!" "sphere03.openingfirstlook01" "Wheatley: AGH! You look TERRIB--you look good. Looking good, actually. If I'm honest." "sphere03.openinggoodbye01" "Wheatley: That's the spirit!" "sphere03.openinggoodbye02" "Wheatley: Good luck!" "sphere03.openinghello01" "Wheatley: Hello? Anyone in there?" "sphere03.openinghello12" "Wheatley: Helloooo?" "sphere03.openinghello13" "Wheatley: Are you going to open the door? At any time?" "sphere03.openinghello15" "Wheatley: Hello? Can y--no?" "sphere03.openinghello17" "Wheatley: Are you going to open this door? Because it's fairly urgent." "sphere03.openinghello18" "Wheatley: Oh, just open the door!

Abre la puerta! Donde esta--no. Um..." "sphere03.openinghello21" "Wheatley: Fine! No, absolutely fine. It's not like I don't have, you know, ten thousand other test subjects begging me to help them escape. You know, it's not like this place is about to EXPLODE." "sphere03.openinghello22" "Wheatley: Alright, look, okay, I'll be honest. You're the LAST test subject left. And if you DON'T help me, we're both going to die. Alright?

"sphere03.openingoutside04" "Wheatley: Why should I be kept informed about the life functions of the ten thousand bloody test subjects I'm supposed to be in charge of?" "sphere03.openingoutside05" "Wheatley: And whose fault do you think it's going to be when the management comes down here and finds ten thousand flipping vegetables?" "sphere03.openingpanicsituation01" "Wheatley: How are you? How you feeling? Wait. Don't answer that. Too much deep relaxation, what it does is it relaxes the gums. And the vibrations from talking -- on a rare occasion -- can make all of your teeth fall out of your head." "sphere03.openingpanicsituation03" "Wheatley: So: there's PLENTY of time to recover. Just take it slow." "sphere03.openingprepare01" "Wheatley: STAY CALM! Stay calm! 'Prepare.' That's all it's saying. It's just saying 'Prepare.' It's all fine. Alright? Don't move.

If anyone asks -- and no one's gonna ask, don't worry -- but if anyone asks, tell them as far as you know, the last time you checked, everyone looked pretty much alive. Alright? Not dead." "sphere03.openingstorystraight03" "Wheatley: Better yet, don't say anything." "sphere03.openingwall01" "Wheatley: Okay, almost there. On the other side of that wall is one of the old testing tracks. There's a piece of equipment in there we're gonna need to get out of here. I think this is a docking station. Get ready..." "sphere03.openingwallhitone01" "Wheatley: Ohhhhhh!" "sphere03.openingwallhitone02" "Wheatley: Good news: that is NOT a docking station. So there's one mystery solved. I'm going to attempt a manual override on this wall. Could get a bit technical! Hold on!" "sphere03.openingwallhitthree01" "Wheatley: Whew. There we go! Now I'll be honest, you are probably in no fit state to run this particular type of cognitive gauntlet.

They told me NEVER NEVER EVER to disengage myself from my Management Rail. Or I would DIE. But we're out of options here. So... get ready to catch me, alright, on the off chance that I'm not dead the moment I pop off this thing." "sphere03.raildroppickup02" "Wheatley: Oh! Brilliant, thank you, great."

Down on the floor. Needing you to pick me up." "sphere03.raildroppostfall20" "Wheatley: What are you doing, are you just having a little five minutes to yourself? Fair enough.

But probably fine. Long as it doesn't start moving up..." "sphere03.sp_a1_wakeup_breakerroom_turn04" "Wheatley: Uh oh." "sphere03.sp_a1_wakeup_breakerroom_turn06" "Wheatley: It's... It's moving up."

"sphere03.sp_a1_wakeup_catwalk03" "Wheatley: I just now realized that I used to rely on my management rail to not fall into bottomless pits. And you're my rail now. And you can fall into bottomless pits. I'm rambling out of fear, but here's the point: don't get close to the edge." "sphere03.sp_a1_wakeup_gantry01" "Wheatley: Okay, I'm gonna lay my cards on the table: I don't wanna do it. I don't want to go in there. Don't... Don't go in there - She's off. She's off! Panic over! She's off. All fine! On we go." "sphere03.sp_a1_wakeup_hacking03" "Wheatley: You KNOW her?" "sphere03.sp_a1_wakeup_hacking08" "Wheatley: Okay don't panic! Allright? Stop panicking! I can still stop this. Ahh. Oh there's a password. It's fine. I'll just hack it. Not a problem... umm..." "sphere03.sp_a1_wakeup_hacking09" "Wheatley: A...A...A...A...A... Umm... A." "sphere03.sp_a1_wakeup_hacking10" "Wheatley: Nope. Okay. A... A... A... A... A... C." "sphere03.sp_a1_wakeup_hacking11" "Wheatley: Okay. Okay. Okay listen: New plan. Act natural act natural. We've done nothing wrong." "sphere03.sp_a1_wakeup_hacking12" "Wheatley: [BUZZER NOISE]" "sphere03.sp_a1_wakeup_into_breakerroom01" "Wheatley: Let's go in!"

Because there's no evidence of it. I'm not a plastic cup. We will be landing with some force. So a bit of grip. Just using grip. Classic grip." "sphere03.sp_a1_wakeup_jump05" "Wheatley: Still held! Still bein' held. That's a great job. You've applied the grip. We're all fine. That's tremendous." "sphere03.sp_a1_wakeup_jump11" "Wheatley: You know what? Go ahead and jump. You've got braces on your legs. No braces on your arms, though. Gonna have to rely on the old human strength to keep a grip on the device and, by extension, me. So do. Do make sure to maintain a grip." "sphere03.sp_a1_wakeup_jump12" "Wheatley: Also, a note: No braces on your spine, either. So don't land on that. Or your head, no braces there. That could split like a melon from this height. [nervous chuckle] Do definitely focus on landing with your legs." "sphere03.sp_a1_wakeup_jump13" "Wheatley: So go ahead and jump. What's the worst that could happen? Oh. Oh wait, I just now thought of the worst thing. Oh! I just thought of something even worse. Alright. New, better plan: no imagining of any potential outcomes whatsoever. Just jump, into the abyss, there, and let's see what happens." "sphere03.sp_a1_wakeup_panic01" "Wheatley: [yelling]" "sphere03.sp_a2_bridge_the_gap_expo01" "Wheatley: Okay, look, the point is, we're gonna break out of here! Very soon, I promise, I promise!"

Remember: you never saw me!" "sphere03.sp_a2_bts1a01" "Wheatley: Okay, quick recap: We are escaping! That's what's happening now: we're escaping. So you're doing great. Just keep running!"

If you don't mind." "sphere03.sp_a2_bts4_turnaroundnags04" "Wheatley: Would you mind putting your back towards me? So I can see only your back. And not your face."

"sphere03.sp_a2_bts5_dooropen_press01" "Wheatley: WHAT ARE YOU DOING WE DON'T KNOW WHAT THAT BUTTON - oh, the door's open! Well done. Let's see what's inside." "sphere03.sp_a2_bts5_first_hose01" "Wheatley: Do you smell neurotoxin?" "sphere03.sp_a2_bts5_first_hose02" "Wheatley: Hold on! The neurotoxin levels are going down."

But real enough for them I suppose." "sphere03.sp_a2_bts5_hack01" "Wheatley: Good news! I can use this equipment to shut down the neurotoxin system. It is, however, password protected. AH! Alarm bells! No. Don't worry. Not a problem for me." "sphere03.sp_a2_bts5_hack02" "Wheatley: You may as well have a little rest, actually, while I work on it." "sphere03.sp_a2_bts5_hack03" "Wheatley: Ok... Here we go..." "sphere03.sp_a2_bts5_hack04" "Wheatley: The hardest part of any hack is the figuring-out-how-to-start phase. That's always tricky. But... Let the games begin." "sphere03.sp_a2_bts5_hack05" "Wheatley: Allright, what have we got?" "sphere03.sp_a2_bts5_hack06" "Wheatley: A computer. Not a surprise. Expected. Check that off the list. Computer identified. Tick." "sphere03.sp_a2_bts5_hack07" "Wheatley: There is a box part here. Probably got some electronics in there." "sphere03.sp_a2_bts5_hack08" "Wheatley: And a monitor. Yes. That'll be important, I imagine. I'll keep my eye on that. In case something useful comes up like 'password identified' or something like that." "sphere03.sp_a2_bts5_hack09" "Wheatley: And there's a flat bit. Not sure what that is. But: noted. If anyone says to me is there a flat bit? Yes, there it is." "sphere03.sp_a2_bts5_hack10" "Wheatley: Spinning thing. Hmmm. Not sure." "sphere03.sp_a2_bts5_hack11" "Wheatley: The floor. What's the floor doing? What's the floor up to? Do you know what? It's holding everything up. The floor is important, holding everything up." "sphere03.sp_a2_bts5_hack12" "Wheatley: Pens. Might need those. Don't see any though. So..." "sphere03.sp_a2_bts5_hack13" "Wheatley: If we start making a list of things that aren't here, we could be here all night. You know, pens for instance. Let's stick with things we can see. Not stuff that isn't here." "sphere03.sp_a2_bts5_hack14" "Wheatley: Allright. Preparing to interface with the neurotoxin central control circuit. Begin: 'Ello, guv! Neurotoxin inspectah! Need to shut this place down for a moment! Here's my credentials. Shut yourself down. I am totally legit. From the board of international neurotoxin... um... observers. From the United... Arab Emirates. Hello." "sphere03.sp_a2_bts5_hack15" "Wheatley: Nothing. He's good. This one. He is good. I'm gonna need to break out the expert level hacking maneuvers now. You asked for it Mate." "sphere03.sp_a2_bts5_hack16" "Wheatley: 'Caw! Caw!' Oh, look! There's a bird out here! A Lovely bird. Gorgeous plumage. Majestic. Won't be here long. A lovely bird like that. Once in a lifetime opportunity to see a lovely bird like that. Lovely plumage." "sphere03.sp_a2_bts5_hack17" "Wheatley: Be a shame to miss it, wouldn't it? Just for the old neurotoxin. Neurotoxin will still be here tomorrow. Whereas that bird will be gone any minute. Already got one talon off the branch. Gonna be gone." "sphere03.sp_a2_bts5_hack18" "Wheatley: Oh, it's fluttering its wings. Tell you what, mate. I'll come in there for a minute and cover you so you can have a look at this lovely bird! I'll come in. I'll do all the neurotoxin stuff. And then you come out here and look at this. Because it is lovely. It is lovely. You want to get out here fast. Seriously, my pleasure sounds are going to frighten the bird away any second. Ohhh, it's not working, is it? He's not interested in bloody birds." "sphere03.sp_a2_bts5_hose_all01" "Wheatley: That did it! Neurotoxin at zero percent! Yes!" "sphere03.sp_a2_bts5_hose_all02" "Wheatley: Hold on -" "sphere03.sp_a2_bts5_hose_any01" "Wheatley: It's still going down! Keep it up!" "sphere03.sp_a2_bts5_hose_half02" "Wheatley: Hold on, something's wrong! Neurotoxin level's up to 50%! No, it's down. Sorry, my mistake. I meant to say it's down to fifty percent. Good news! Carry on!" "sphere03.sp_a2_bts5_intro01" "Wheatley: Ha! I knew we were going the right way." "sphere03.sp_a2_bts5_intro02" "Wheatley: This is the neurotoxin generator. Bit bigger than I expected. Not going to be able to just, you know, push it over. Have to apply some cleverness." "sphere03.sp_a2_bts5_intro03" "Wheatley: There's some sort of control room up top. Let's go investigate." "sphere03.sp_a2_bts5_laser_cut01" "Wheatley: What are you doing in there?" "sphere03.sp_a2_bts5_laser_cut02" "Wheatley: What's going on?" "sphere03.sp_a2_bts5_laser_cut03" "Wheatley: Are you alright?" "sphere03.sp_a2_bts5_lockeddoor01" "Wheatley: I'm afraid the door's locked. Just checked it. No way to hack it as far as I can tell. The mechanism must be on the -oh, now look at that. That's a big laser!" "sphere03.sp_a2_bts5_lockeddoor02" "Wheatley: Probably best to ignore it, though. Just leave it be. We don't know where those panels it's cutting are going. Could be somewhere important." "sphere03.sp_a2_bts5_lockeddoor03" "Wheatley: Though it does give me an idea: WHAT if we stand here and let the gentle hum of the laser transport us to a state of absolute relaxation. Might help us think of a way to open the door." "sphere03.sp_a2_bts5_lockeddoor04" "Wheatley: Not much of a plan, if I'm honest. But I'm afraid it's all we have at his point. Barring a sudden barrage of speech from your direction. Improbable. At best." "sphere03.sp_a2_bts5_lockeddoor05" "Wheatley: Alright, so, silent contemplation it is. Mysterious button... Sorry. Sorry. Silence. Do not speak. In the silence. Let the silence descend. Here it comes. One hundred percent silence. From now. By the way, if you come up with any ideas, do flag them up. Don't feel you have to stay quiet because I've said absolute silence. So if you come up with an idea, mention it. Otherwise, absolute silence starting... Now." "sphere03.sp_a2_bts5_science_fair01" "Wheatley: Look at that, it's growing right up into the ceiling. The whole place is probably overrun with potatoes at this point. At least you won't starve, though." "sphere03.sp_a2_bts5_science_fair02" "Wheatley: Baking Soda Volcano. Well, at least it's not a potato battery, I'll give it that. Still not terrifically original, though. Not exactly primary research, even within the child sciences." "sphere03.sp_a2_bts5_science_fair03" "Wheatley: I'm guessing this wasn't one of the scientist's children. I don't want to be snobby, but let's be honest: It's got manual laborer written all over it. I'm not saying they're not as good as the professionals. They're just a lot dumber." "sphere03.sp_a2_bts5_tubebroken01" "Wheatley: HA! The tube's broken! We can ride it straight to her!" "sphere03.sp_a2_bts6_tuberide01" "Wheatley: This place is huge." "sphere03.sp_a2_bts6_tuberide02" "Wheatley: And we're only seeing the top layer. It goes down for miles."

"sphere03.sp_a2_factory_window02" "Wheatley: Go on, just walk up to the window and take a look out." "sphere03.sp_a2_factory_window03" "Wheatley: It's interesting. You won't regret it. I promise." "sphere03.sp_a2_factory_window04" "Wheatley: Just... have a look through the old window." "sphere03.sp_a2_factory_window05" "Wheatley: Just glass. Transparent. Smooth. Not going to hurt you. Have a look." "sphere03.sp_a2_factory_window06" "Wheatley: Go on. Walk up to the window. Take a look out." "sphere03.sp_a2_tube_ride01" "Wheatley: Aggh! I'm going the wrong way!"

Ohh, I can't wait to see the look on her face. No neurotoxin, no turrets--she'll never know what hit her!" "sphere03.sp_a2_tube_ride06" "Wheatley: Hold on now. I might not have thought this next part COMPLETELY through." "sphere03.sp_a2_tube_ride07" "Wheatley: Get to HER! I'll find you!" "sphere03.sp_a2_wheatley_ows01" "Wheatley: Ugh!"

I'm going to work on the assumption that you're still alive and I'm just going to wait for you up ahead." "sphere03.sp_intro_03_afterfallalt09" "Wheatley: I'll wait--I'll wait one hour. Then I'll come back and, assuming I can locate your dead body, I'll bury you. Alright? Brilliant! Go team! See you in an hour! Hopefully! If you're not... dead."

Only the turret control center. Thank you very much." "sphere03.sp_sabotage_factory05" "Wheatley: See that scanner out there? It's deciding which turrets to keep and which to toss.

How long's the door been open?" "sphere03.sp_sabotage_factory_hackdoordone02" "Wheatley: Was there any sort of announcement before it opened? Like an alarm or a hacker alert? I mean, fair enough, the important thing is it's open, but just mention in the future. Cough or something." "sphere03.sp_sabotage_factoryhackone01" "Wheatley: Right. Hmm. I'm gonna have to hack the door so we can get at it." "sphere03.sp_sabotage_factoryhackone02" "Wheatley: Technical... Ummm... You'll need to turn around while I do this."

"sphere03.sp_sabotage_factoryturretonedone13" "Wheatley: Oh!

"sphere03.sp_sabotage_factoryturretonedone17" "Wheatley: Oh, hang on. What if we gave it something ELSE to scan?" "sphere03.sp_sabotage_factoryturretonedone19" "Wheatley: We could get one of the crap turrets. We could put it in the scanner and see what happens."

"Commentary_Title_WELCOME" "WELCOME TO PORTAL 2" "#commentary\com-welcome.wav" "[Gabe Newell] Hi, my name is Gabe Newell, and welcome to Portal 2. When we released the original Portal in 2007, it was an experiment to see how gamers would respond to a different kind of gameplay and storytelling experience. Portal went on to win a bunch of awards, sell many copies, and, most importantly, resonate with gamers in a way that no other Valve title has. The challenges for us in building Portal 2 were to live up to people's expectations, to take you back to the world of Chell and Aperture Science, and to surprise gamers again not with more of the same, but with more of the new. And, I think, it will be, mostly, a pleasant surprise. To listen to a commentary node, put your crosshair over the floating commentary symbol and press your use key. To stop a commentary node, put your crosshair over the rotating node and press the use key again. Some commentary nodes may take control of the game in order to show something to you. In these cases, simply press your use key again to stop the commentary. Please let me know what you think after you have had a chance to play Portal 2. I can be reached at gaben@valvesoftware.com. I get about 10,000 emails each time we release a game, and while I can't respond to all of them, I do read all of them. Thanks, and have fun!" "Commentary_Title_BIGDOOR" "BIG DOOR" "#commentary\com-bigdoor.wav" "[Scott Dalton] The size of the gigantic transition seal lock was a happy accident. We knew the connection between old Aperture and new Aperture had to be a big set piece. The first model built was about five times bigger than everyone expected, but people started to like it. We joked that it should be a bullet point on the Portal 2 box: \"Features the biggest door in games ever!\" We decided it would be fun to play with the player's expectations and put a puny looking door behind it, along with a few small props." "Commentary_Title_JANITOR" "JANITOR BOB" "#commentary\com-janitor.wav" "[Ivan Simonici] We had to come up with old-looking versions for all the important gameplay props, such as button panels, doors, cubes - basically everything the player could interact with. We came up with this fictional character - Janitor Bob. He'd be the guy who had to maintain all of old Aperture. A guy who doesn't understand anything about science but can fix everything with duct tape and a screwdriver. He would use everything he could get his hands on. The result might not look pretty but it would work. So whenever we got stuck designing props for chapter 3 we'd ask ourselves: \"Well, how would Bob build it?\"" "Commentary_Title_EYE_HAS_IT" "THE EYE HAS IT" "#commentary\com-eyehasit.wav" "[Karen Prell] How do you make a giant mechanical eyeball express life and emotions, let alone give the impression that he's talking when he has no mouth? The animator's understanding of human behavior came in handy for bringing Wheatley the personality sphere to life. Talking is so much more than just moving a character's mouth. You have to use body language, head attitudes and rhythm of movement and eye focus to indicate a character's feelings and motivations. Slow, smooth head moves, a steady gaze and a relaxed eye aperture indicate that Wheatley is calm. Short, sharp head turns, rapid blinks and glancing around indicate nervousness or deceit. Add a tightly constricted eye aperture and a little shiver to show fear. Tilting the body away while keeping the eye focused on the player signals an attempt at cleverness that ultimately only fools Wheatley himself. Suspicion is communicated by squinting his eyelids and handles, which function as very expressive eyebrows and cheeks. It's also fun to remind the player that Wheatley is a machine. When hacking, his eye and body segments become perfectly centered and spin mechanically, inspired by the spinning tape reels on old Univac computers. And when he wants to look far in front, he flips his eye all the way over to the other side of his head. This animation approach combined with the writing and vocals makes Wheatley quite a unique and entertaining character--part human, part machine, all eye, and no brain." "Commentary_Title_MASH-UP" "MASH-UP" "#commentary\com-mashup.wav" "[David Sawyer]Having built up the expectation that Wheatley is going to kill the player, we still wanted the actual moment to be a surprise. By this point players are entirely comfortable with faith plates, and the simple subversion of expectations as Wheatley punts you sideways, is a fun and surprising moment. We added the bouncing box with the intention that players attempt to time their jump to catch the box, focusing their attention on the expected result of their jump and heightening the surprise." "Commentary_Title_CRUSHERS" "CRUSHERS" "#commentary\com-crushers.wav" "[Cayle George] We had a bunch of levels that used the crusher panels in ways that made the test chambers more dangerous. After showing some of these levels in press demos, we got feedback that viewers were getting the impression that Portal 2 was going to be too difficult since players would have to time events such as running or falling through a portal with not getting hit by a deadly crusher. We decided to save these for the escape, when Wheatley tries to hold you off." "Commentary_Title_LAIR" "PREPARING FOR WHEATLEY'S LAIR" "#commentary\com-lair.wav" "[Alireza Razmpoosh] When playtesting the final boss battle, we found players were confused about what to do when they entered Wheatley's lair. Our solution was to train the player by having them break glass paint pipes a level earlier. This lets them learn the mechanic without any time pressure before they have to fight Wheatley. This also trains the player to redirect the bombs Wheatley throws at them." "Commentary_Title_FATIGUE" "ELEVATOR FATIGUE" "#commentary\com-fatigue.wav" "[Marcus Egan] We found that playtesters were getting fatigued at solving so many complex test chambers in a row. So, instead of a routine elevator ride to the next puzzle, we added a long funnel ride with some destruction to give players a short break while reminding them of the facility's state of disrepair." "Commentary_Title_CHEATING" "CHEATING THE SPEED OF LIGHT" "#commentary\com-cheating.wav" "[Phil Co] We wanted to be scientifically accurate in this puzzle, figuring that there'd be a slight delay before you'd see a portal on the moon, since light takes 1.4 seconds to travel the distance. But playtesters would shoot the moon and instantly turn away, thinking nothing had happened. They didn't realize they actually had shot the moon. We tried and rejected a few different approaches to communicate the effect, including a cheat involving quantum entanglement, before settling on the current solution to this problem." "Commentary_Title_DECAY" "STATE OF DECAY" "#commentary\com-decay.wav" "[Kelly Thornton] Starting out in the ruins of the test chambers from the first Portal was our goal pretty much from Day One. We wanted to give players a sense of nostalgia for what they had played, but also make it very clear that things had changed. Not only in a fictional sense, but in a graphical one as well. We needed to bridge the gap between the first game's simpler art assets to the much more complex look of Portal 2." "Commentary_Title_CAROUSEL" "PORTAL CAROUSEL" "#commentary\com-carousel.wav" "[Alex Vlachos] This room is meant to teach players the fundamentals of portals connecting them to two places in the world. As the blue portal moves around the world, the orange stays rooted. In the original Portal, this room had the portals moving by themselves on a timer. This led to most people simply staring through their orange portal waiting for the blue one to end up in the right place. We felt that altering this to make the players decide where the portals came out was more instructive and meant that players who already knew how to use portals could solve this puzzle both quickly and with authority." "Commentary_Title_JAZZ" "SMOOTH JAZZ" "#commentary\com-jazz.wav" "[Mike Morasky] This map was one of the first of the older Portal maps that we beat up and decayed to bind the two games together. The 'smooth jazz' joke is probably the oldest one in the game. The team discovered through playtesting that smooth jazz was funny to all ages, genders and cultures." "Commentary_Title_E3" "WHEATLEY AT E3" "#commentary\com-e3.wav" "[Thorsten Scheuermann] This interaction with Wheatley was the first that we hooked up for our initial showing at E3. It demonstrated how Wheatley would be an actor in the world, and how the player would not only be interacting with him directly, but also using him to interact with the Aperture facility." "Commentary_Title_CATAPULT" "CATAPULT INTRO" "#commentary\com-catapult.wav" "[Kristopher Katz] This was the first test map we created when we started to experiment with the Aerial Faith Plate puzzle element. The map underwent many visual refinements, but it's one of the few puzzles that remained almost completely unchanged from its first form." "Commentary_Title_DESTRUCTION" "INTRODUCTION DESTRUCTION" "#commentary\com-destruction.wav" "[Gray Horsfield] The container ride destruction sequence provided some unique technical challenges. The dynamics you experience are actually computed as two separate but nested simulations. The first is a coarse scale simulation designed as a stress element analysis pass. This pass computes the overall gross motion of the container itself, and computes the collisions and break points based on path keyframe data and a network of constraints. As the container bumps and crashes along, the constraints start breaking, and the room progressively starts to come apart. There are over three hundred rigid bodies and nine hundred constraints in this rig, all individually configured for properties like tensile, friction and collision response. The coarse simulation portrayed gross motion that captured the main dynamics of the ride, but not the fine details. The product of the coarse simulation was then used to deform spline-based surfaces representing the container geometry, which in turn were parents to fine debris as anchored rigid bodies. As the surface deformations increase, anchors are broken and the fine debris rigid bodies are released into the simulation. The fine simulation also includes the interior furniture, and the model detailing. The two simulations were then connected using cache data and were driven together by a series of scripts. Due to the computational complexities of having two nested simulations, we had to come up with some solutions to some interesting mathematical problems. One problem was that the nested nature of the simulations resulted in some instability in the fine debris calculations due to floating point computing limits. The solution employed for this was to compute the fine debris on a stage where the root transform of the coarse simulation was essentially cancelled out and stored for later use. This allowed us to more accurately detect the fine interactions between the debris and the environment. Post simulation, the root transform position and inertia were reapplied to the details. We solved the problem of trying to compute the player within this highly dynamic environment by putting them in a virtual room that has all the base shapes of the rendered container, but is simply used to compute player navigation. (It’s hidden somewhere else in the map.) The viewpoint of the player is then parented to coarse simulation transform, resulting in the final rendered frame. At the end of the ride the player is teleported into the actual game space. The simulations were iterative, enabling us to sculpt the dynamics in parallel with the gameplay design. In the final product there are over 1200 rigid bodies, 900 constraints, and 1000 joints. With all the iterations combined, the actual run time spent computing the simulation was 92.4875 days." "Commentary_Title_REFERENCE" "REFERENCE MATERIALS" "#commentary\com-reference.wav" "[Adam Foster] While making Portal 2, we explored our way through vast quantities of reference material. Inspirations included photos of NASA’s Apollo and Shuttle programs, CERN’s particle accelerators both modern and obsolete, industrial robots, derelict Soviet space shuttles, overgrown temples, Brussels metro stations, seedy American motels, junkyards filled with rocketry equipment, Chinese apartment blocks under construction, Polish shipyards, neutrino detectors deep underground in nickel mines, corporate headquarters from a variety of eras, commercial nuclear reactors, experimental fusion reactors, rain-sodden book depositories in Detroit, peculiar cameras, forgotten space probes, you name it." "Commentary_Title_MONITOR" "KILL YOUR TELEVISION" "#commentary\com-monitor.wav" "[Zachary Franks] In each of Wheatley's test chambers there is always a monitor with Wheatley on it. While placing the monitor in this level, one of our designers thought it would be funny if the monitor was the target of the faith plate and would get broken if the player or the box flew into it. We thought the gag worked well and decided to make every monitor breakable." "Commentary_Title_NONLINEAR" "NONLINEAR PROGRESSION" "#commentary\com-nonlinear.wav" "[Greg Cherlin] The original layout of this chamber started out much more linear; essentially a sequence of rooms that the player had to progress through somewhat blindly – not knowing what the next goal might be until they got there. Early versions contained an extra puzzle beyond the reflector cube, but due to the linear path, it took players so long to get to it, that they were confused about which elements were still relevant. This drove us to make the level nonlinear. To make it easier for players to visualize the puzzle, we condensed the overall test space and moved the exit near the start. This helped the players see where they had to go and which objects would help them get there." "Commentary_Title_mislead" "MISLEADING FIXATIONS" "#commentary\com-mislead.wav" "[Jess Cliffe] While testing this map, we often saw playtesters fixate on the excursion funnel and try to use it to get to the other side, forgetting that they had a portal gun. To remedy this, we added the destruction event that happens just before this chamber. This requires the player to portal through the floor and out of a wall to cross a gap. Once the player enters the test chamber, they are presented with the exact same scenario, but in a different context." "Commentary_Title_FUNNEL" "EXCURSION FUNNEL" "#commentary\com-funnel.wav" "[Dave Saunders] In this excursion funnel ride, playtesters would often end up shooting the wrong portal at the critical moment and killing themselves. This ruined the moment for players, who often didn't quite understand why their excursion funnel hadn't been redirected. As a solution, we now detect when the player places the wrong portal in hopes of saving themselves; we help them out by moving their other portal under the excursion funnel source. This effectively makes the section foolproof, by allowing the player to shoot either portal to save themselves." "Commentary_Title_WORLD_PORTALS" "WORLD PORTALS" "#commentary\com-worldportals.wav" "[Eric Tams] Much of the fun in Portal is based on the joy of the \"Ah Ha!\" moment when you learn something new. The game needs a very specific pacing to ensure these moments. If things are too easy then you are robbed of that moment since it feels like you didn't accomplish anything. If it's too hard then players feel stupid instead of smart when they finally realize that one small part of the puzzle that they were missing. Unfortunately trying to create that delicate balance leads to a lot of shuffling of levels and a lot of revisions and tweaks to existing levels. When we started the project making any big structural change in a level or the order of levels would lead to hours or even days of busy work trying to reconnect things and make sure they lined up again. If we ever wanted to ship something the size of Portal with the finely tuned balance we desired then we needed a way to be able to make big changes to the layout of the game without paying the cost of making everything line up again. We needed a way to bend space. We needed to think with portals. Using portals to connect different areas in the world we could make any type of impossible space work out. You could look through a hallway into the next room but the hallway might be on the other side of the map and the room you are looking into might be in a completely different orientation. We could seamlessly insert an elevator, a huge expansive vista, a room that was bigger on the inside than the outside, or even create an infinite fall by connecting a shaft back into itself. Soon every connection between any space was a portal. We would even switch them on the fly. Even a simple door worked like the cartoons - just a facade painted on a wall that seamlessly opened somewhere else entirely. Once the game settled down we were able to finalize our path and remove all of the world portals. There's only one impossible space left in the whole game - see if you can figure out where it is." "Commentary_Title_BLOBULATOR" "BLOBULATOR" "#commentary\com-blobulator.wav" "[Olivier Nallet] The first implementation of the blob was integrated in the Source engine back in 2007. Over the years, the code has been significantly optimized, but was still way too slow to run on game consoles. The blob was a key feature of Portal 2, even though we did not know if we could make it work for consoles. In summer 2010, we were still considering using a completely different tech for consoles--one that would certainly not look as nice. On the 360, even with a very low quality blob, we were barely within our performance budget. But we really wanted to have the same high quality blob among all platforms. Meanwhile, the code was poorly suited for PS3 SPU. We ended up re-writing all the blob code so it would take better advantage of multiple cores and SPUs, giving us quality blobs on all platforms while staying within performance and memory constraints." "Commentary_Title_FLIGHT" "FLIGHT PATHS" "#commentary\com-flight.wav" "[John Guthrie] The catapult trajectory lines seen here allow us to visualize where the catapult will deliver a player or a physics object. We can differentiate the speed and trajectory for players and other objects. The yellow lines are for physics objects, and green is the player's trajectory. Sometimes we need to have a different value to accommodate the shape of the objects being catapulted. What works for the player may not work for an object, and vice versa. For instance, it was common for a box to make it to a ledge while the player would smack into the side and then fall into the slime. The visualization tools helped us debug these types of problems" "Commentary_Title_HOTEL_HELL" "HOTEL HELL" "#commentary\com-hotelhell.wav" "[Randy Lundeen] The idea of being stuck forever in a state of stasis that looked like a crappy old motel room had been in our minds for a long time, but we weren't sure exactly how we wanted to rip you out of it. There was some debate over whether the opening sequence happened inside the player’s head or not. There was an alternate opening where Aperture had hooked-up all of its cryo-stored test subjects to an incredibly boring hotel room simulator, which Wheatley would then wake the player from. Eventually this was discarded as too difficult to explain in the short time allotted, and we opted to change the hotel room to a “container ride on a rail”. This allowed us to show the player, rather than tell them, about how they and other test subjects have been stored, show some of the scale of the facility and even hint at how much time has passed. We also get to gradually reveal all of this through the destruction of the container itself as it moves and bangs into things. Overall, this gives the player a much more dynamic and visceral introduction to Portal 2." "Commentary_Title_REMNANTS" "STORY REMNANTS" "#commentary\com-remnants.wav" "[Kyle Monroe] The writers went back and forth over whether or not Wheatley had tried escaping with other test subjects before waking the player up. It was an interesting idea, and you can still hear remnants of this story arc in some of the dialogue. But at the end of the day, it was just too expansive a concept to sell. So it’s hinted at, but not overtly mentioned until the end." "Commentary_Title_SLOWBURN" "SLOW BURN" "#commentary\com-slowburn.wav" "[Elan Ruskin] GLaDOS originally was a lot more cutting in these opening rooms, given that she’s talking to someone she perceives as her murderer. Playtests revealed, though, that it was a bit grueling getting brow-beaten by GLaDOS this early in the game, so her arc was rewritten to give her more of a slow burn towards the player." "Commentary_Title_MANY_TO_ONE" "MANY TO ONE" "#commentary\com-manytoone.wav" "[Doug Wood] Wheatley was originally envisioned as a group of spheres that you’d discover as you explored the facility behind the scenes. We ditched this idea for two reasons. For one thing, ‘behind the scenes’ levels were required to highlight the introductions of each of these new spheres and these levels have their own unique logic. The number of spheres we wanted would have made for far too many of these types of levels, resulting in a very un-Portal-like game. Also, we were spending so much time introducing these new characters that we had no time to get to know any of them before they were swept offstage for the next one. Eventually we realized it’d be a lot more satisfying to really get to know one sphere instead of briefly meeting six. Some of these characters were eventually recycled as corrupt cores for the finale." "Commentary_Title_ACCENTS" "HORRIBLE ACCENTS" "#commentary\com-accents.wav" "[Erik Robson] The breakout sequence here was originally a lot longer, involving Wheatley talking to you in a horrible American accent, assuming GLaDOS can't hear him. Simultaneously, we'd have GLaDOS commenting on the entire ridiculous exchange, because of course she can hear him. When we playtested the concept, every player made a beeline for the opening. So we either had to ditch all the dialogue or figure out a reason for the player to stand around for five minutes even though they could escape at any time. We ditched the dialogue." "Commentary_Title_CAROLYN" "CAROLINE" "#commentary\com-carolyn.wav" "[Dario Casali] The character of 'Caroline' came about because we wanted somebody for Cave to play off of. Though we had originally envisioned a put-upon Scientist character called Greg, it would have been wasteful to hire an actor for just one or two lines. Instead, we hit upon the idea of economizing by using GLaDOS-actor Ellen McLain. Out of nowhere, we suddenly had an opportunity for a GLaDOS origin story." "Commentary_Title_POTATOS" "POTATOS" "#commentary\com-potatos.wav" "[Jay Pinkerton] The character of PotatOS was actually the hardest one to crack for us, and was the last character to get recorded. We’d always wanted to switch things up for the sequel, so that GLaDOS would become your unwilling buddy cop partner against a new threat, but this ended up being far more entertaining as a concept than in execution. It’s one thing to have an omnipotent villain chastising you while you’re testing. It’s quite another to have a little potato on your gun doing the same. Playtesters wanted to tear her off the gun, and we didn’t blame them. So we were faced with the unsettling prospect of making dry, robotic supervillain GLaDOS more human and relatable. This ended up being one of the hardest writing jobs in the game." "Commentary_Title_BIRDBRAIN" "BIRDBRAIN" "#commentary\com-birdbrain.wav" "[Erik Wolpaw] One of the larger plot holes that PotatOS introduced was: She’s your buddy now. She’s got the same goals as you. So why isn’t she helping you solve the tests? The real answer is, obviously, that if she did help you solve the tests there’d be no game. One solution we we came up with was for the bird from Act 3 to keep swooping in and pecking bits of her off your gun. As the bird kept eating the part of her that knew how to solve the tests, PotatOS would actually get dumber over time. For technical reasons, this ended up being impossible to execute, so we ended up finding another solution. Some of us though will always have a place in our heart for the bird solution." "Commentary_Title_EVIL" "EVIL WHEATLEY" "#commentary\com-evil.wav" "[Noel McGinn] Finding the right balance for Evil Wheatley was difficult, because we still wanted him to be the bumbling idiot from the first half of the game, but at the same time, there had to be some sense that he was dangerous now, otherwise there wasn't much tension for the big finale. Fortunately, Stephen Merchant did a great job of intercutting funny bumbling Wheatley with occasional outbursts of power-mad, villainous Wheatley." "Commentary_Title_PUNISHER" "PUNISHER" "#commentary\com-punisher.wav" "[Joel Shoop] There was a lot of debate over how to properly punish Wheatley at the end of the game. Killing him seemed too severe, given how much we’d grown to love the character. On the other hand, simply letting him out of the GLaDOS body with a slap on the wrist seemed unacceptably anticlimactic. Having him sucked out into space with the Space Sphere seemed like a happy middle ground that everybody could get behind." "Commentary_Title_WHIMSY" "ROBOT WHIMSY" "#commentary\com-whimsy.wav" "[Mike Belzer] In our original robot designs, and the first animation tests, we started with the premise that, being robots, their movements should have limited 'personality' and be a bit more mechanical. The feedback of our game testers, and the reaction of fans through the trailers, convinced us that a more whimsical approach to animation would lead to a better experience. So we moved away from a sterile approach and found a whole new range of possibilities, as we began to explore their personalities and gestures." "Commentary_Title_ORANGE" "ORANGE BOT" "#commentary\com-orange.wav" "[Keith Lango] The orange bot has been described as finicky, and you can see elements that are somewhat birdlike and even reminiscent of the Odd Couple's Felix Unger. The 'gotta pee' idle dance was born out of the idea that current bipedal robots are constantly needing to readjust in order to find their balance. Because Orange's design is rather unstable, the motion design solution was kind of a perpetual motion needed to maintain his balance." "Commentary_Title_BLUE" "BLUE BOT" "#commentary\com-blue.wav" "[Christen Coomer] If the Orange bot is the Odd Couple's Felix, then Blue is Oscar. Blue was meant to be an early and rather rough prototype robot--representing GLaDOS’s first attempt at making a bipedal testing bot. Compared to the sleek lines of Orange, he is much less elegant. For motion inspiration, we looked to some of our favorite real life robots, such as the Big Dog robot from MIT and the towel-folding robot from Hitachi." "Commentary_Title_DECOR" "DECORATING APERTURE" "#commentary\com-decor.wav" "[Laura Dubuk] This chapter gave us a great opportunity for visually telling the backstory of Aperture Science. We accomplished this with signs, props and materials. In this area, we get a glimpse of what Aperture Science must have been like in its heyday. We used rich, warm colors and materials like carpeting and marble to indicate that Aperture had a lot of money at one time. Cave Johnson and his staff were just starting out in their enterprise and everyone was eager to do science. This stands in contrast to the stark, cavernous environment outside and the materials you see in the Aperture Labs from later decades. As the player makes their way through more recent areas of the lab, the materials become cheaper, with an abundance of plastic and linoleum showing that Aperture had fallen on harder times and could no longer build high-quality offices for its workers." "Commentary_Title_NEW_SOUNDS" "NEW SOUNDS AND OLD" "#commentary\com-newsounds.wav" "[Tim Larkin] The newer and older versions of Aperture show their distinct personalities in sound as well as visuals. The doors, floors and buttons, as well as soundscapes, reflect the aging, outdated 70’s feel. The sounds contain hints of the decaying metal and wood. The newer but unstable Wheatley chamber soundscapes become more foreboding and perilous the further you venture into them. The atmosphere of uncontrolled destruction continues to intensify till the end." "Commentary_Title_PREDICTION" "PREDICTING WITH PORTALS" "#commentary\com-prediction.wav" "[Dave Kircher] The levels in Portal 2 are much more complex than in the first game, and as a result we’ve had to beef up the player movement algorithms. The player is represented as an axis-aligned box in the world, which creates a problem for portal teleportation because portal teleportation is almost never axis-aligned. To improve how we handle this, we trace the player as the axis-aligned bounding box they would use on each side of a portal simultaneously and merge the results into something usable. We have to predict quite a bit more than previous Source Engine games because portals and projected entities change the way the player moves through the world. Prediction itself is a mind bending headache when dealing with portals. We’re already dealing with a non-linear space. Now we also have to deal with non-linear time in a non-linear space." "Commentary_Title_HUB" "HUB DESIGN" "#commentary\com-hub.wav" "[Matt T. Wood] In laying out the structure of our Hub, we had a number of challenges that were new and specific to co-op play. We have to assume that each player has made different progress throughout the game, playing with different partners, and starting in the neutral center of the hub was a way of making sure that they had a chance and place to coordinate. Players needed a way to agree on where to go, and way to visualize each other's completion data. As they played, they needed concrete feedback on how much progress they had made. In seeking solutions, we felt it was important to keep the player in the gamespace rather than resorting to menus and UI that would take them out of the game. Therefore, players can clearly see their status over the doors, and they navigate by walking the course in the 3D space. GLaDOS is there to connect the experience to the singleplayer game, while holding the player's hands a bit to keep the co-op goals and feedback clear." "Commentary_Title_HUB_RETURN" "RETURN TO THE HUB" "#commentary\com-hubreturn.wav" "[Gautam Babbar] Our initial goal in designing the hub was to provide players with a lot of choices, so they could to sample a variety of game types. The idea was that if they got stuck or needed a break, they could pick another test chamber or another mechanic to explore. In reality, this prevented us from doing sufficient training and limited the overall scope of the puzzles. With such a flat structure, it was much harder to layer old mechanics onto new ones, because we couldn't guarantee that players understood what they needed to know to solve a puzzle. By going linear, we could guarantee prior knowledge and provide a much better experience, more satisfying pacing and a story that gathered momentum over a long period of time." "Commentary_Title_STEALING" "STEALING THE CORE" "#commentary\com-stealing.wav" "[Ted Backman] We have a taunt where one robot steals the other's core. When implemented, it was the only taunt that required one person to initiate. Because of this we were afraid that it would be used for griefing. We were in the process of rethinking our approach when early playtesters rated this as their favorite taunt. It was also the most used team taunt because it only required one player to initiate, and was easier to use than the others. We ended up changing all the other team taunts to emulate the way stealing the core works." "Commentary_Title_PING_TOOL" "PING TOOL" "#commentary\com-pingtool.wav" "[Josh Weier] Early on we realized that trying to tell your partner where to go, where to look or where to place a portal was going to be really hard. Even with voice chat, saying 'over there' doesn't give enough information to your partner within the 3D space. Players kept wanting to get up and point directly at their partner's screen. We developed the ping tool to address this problem. Because the ping tool was so important, we decided to train players in its use before we did anything else. We held back on the vast majority of player actions and let the players focus entirely on the ping tool. This is why the co-op bots start separated in a tube, without even the ability to walk or shoot a portal." "Commentary_Title_CONTEXT" "PING CONTEXT" "#commentary\com-context.wav" "[Iestyn Bleasdale-Shepherd] Most players don't realize that the ping tool is context sensitive. When they are playing voice enabled, players usually rely on the look portion of the ping tool. Without voice, icons such as 'press the button' or 'stand here' become much more important." "Commentary_Title_SYNC" "SYNC UP" "#commentary\com-sync.wav" "[Brian Jacobson] It is important to give co-op players a way to coordinate their action. Seeing how our players naturally wanted this ability, we decided to support it with the ping timer, and ended up designing some puzzles around it. Due to lag and other issues, syncing up actions over voice chat turned out to be rather difficult. Therefore we created the countdown timer as a way for players to keep in sync. It's completely predictable. Both players see the GO at the same instant, and the clocks run in sync even if they are on different systems." "Commentary_Title_HANDOFF" "HAND OFF" "#commentary\com-handoff.wav" "[Chris Boyd] Something that really surprised us was how often playtesters stated that they loved the basic experience of handing off a cube to their partner. Players didn't expect such a fundamental physical interaction to just work in a game. Before trying it for the first time, they would discuss their plan as if it were some unique or special new game mechanic. When it just worked, they were overjoyed." "Commentary_Title_DYING" "DYING ALL THE TIME" "#commentary\com-dying.wav" "[Andrea Wicklund] Normally in games, when players die, they see this as a big failure. But in Portal, death is a normal part of the puzzle solving experience. In co-op, death not only happens more frequently, but it can happen at the hands of your partner (purely accidentally of course). We felt it was important to not only make death \"no big deal,\" but to make it fun. Early on, we tried some elaborate death animations--such as showing your robot slowly getting crushed under a giant crusher. These were awesome to watch, but they quickly became repetitive. Also, after a very short while, players grew afraid to take risks. The fear of having to wait a long time before trying again prevented them from simply playing and experimenting in a spirit of fun. We had to find the right balance where death was quick enough to be a non-penalty, and elaborate enough to be visceral and satisfying--a fun pay-off for creative play." "Commentary_Title_DISASSEMBLY" "DISASSEMBLY DEVICE" "#commentary\com-disassembly.wav" "[Danika Wright] Since the co-op characters can die at any time, we needed a way to rebuild them quickly and often. Therefore in co-op, we replaced the elevators that connected test chambers in singleplayer, with disassembly machines. These are meant to reinforce the idea that since the robots are disposable, being destroyed is no big deal. In the robot world, it happens all the time!" "Commentary_Title_AIRLOCKS" "AIRLOCKS" "#commentary\com-airlocks.wav" "[Garret Rickey] Airlocks were introduced mainly as a way to allow players to focus on individual puzzles. In some of our early investigations, areas contained puzzles that were meant to be solved as a group, as well as others that were for individual solution. But we found that if players could move freely between them, they logically assumed that the individual puzzles were part of one big puzzle. This had bad results. For clarity, we created these airlock-like spawn rooms that act as checkpoints between puzzles. Once both players enter the airlock, we lock off access." "Commentary_Title_IMPOSTERS" "WORLD IMPOSTERS" "#commentary\com-imposters.wav" "[Gary McTaggart] In Left 4 Dead 2, we authored simple, fogged, black versions of the world as monolithic models to avoid the CPU overhead of rendering the world again for water reflections. This worked well for the Left 4 Dead 2 outdoor environments where most light comes from the sky. But Portal 2 is almost entirely indoors, so the color and value of the world geometry is apparent in the water reflections. Since the Portal 2 world geometry is relatively simple, we automatically build a version of the world geometry that has a single texture that combines both lighting and surface shading along with another texture with just surface shading. The latter texture is used when rendering dynamic lights. These textures are at the same spatial resolution as the light maps and get packed into a single large atlased texture per level. Drawing this simple world imposter model takes very little CPU time, which was a limited resource on Portal 2 due to the many portal views, split-screen views, and water reflection views that we needed to render. We initially planned on using the world imposters only for water reflection rendering, but we ended up using it to improve performance in split-screen mode where it is used for rendering distant portals and portals that are two levels deep. We also use the world imposters to render water in full screen co-op mode, to give us some performance overhead, since the co-op mode has more portal views to render than single-player mode." "Commentary_Title_GEL_SOUNDS" "GEL SOUNDS" "#commentary\com-gelsounds.wav" "[David Feise] With the gel sounds for Portal 2 we wanted to create something whimsical that would add to the player’s enjoyment of the mechanics, without crossing over the line into ludicrousness. For example, our initial pass at the blue gel 'bounce' sound included a rubber playground ball, a pitch-bent harp string and a processed mouth harp. The resulting sound captured the idea of fun, but was off the charts on the goofy scale. After several iterations we settled on the current, less over-the-top sound which features a piece of metal bar bouncing like a diving board and a heavy dose of synthesis. It’s not as wacky, but hopefully it’s still fun." "Commentary_Title_WHEEL" "GESTURE WHEEL" "#commentary\com-wheel.wav" "[Andrew Burke] In our first implementation, gestures were automatically selected based on the player's context. For example, Blue might do a special gesture when standing on a floor button. Players became bored of seeing these gestures so quickly that they stopped using them before discovering any of the special contexts. Because of this, we decided to give players control of gestures as a way to express themselves, but when shown the full set from the start, they were overwhelmed by all the choices. By awarding gestures as the game progresses, we allow players to familiarize themselves with each gesture in turn. Leaving visible empty slots in the gesture wheel lets players anticipate that they'll be rewarded with cool new gestures as they progress. The gesture wheel provides quick access so that players can feel comfortable tossing out a gesture during down time, letting them pick the perfect moment to share a high five." "Commentary_Title_HIGH_FIVE" "HIGH-FIVE" "#commentary\com-highfive.wav" "[Matthew Scott] We noticed that after playtesters had solved a difficult puzzle together, they'd sometimes pause before funneling through the exit door to repeatedly jump up and down in excitement. We realized that these meeting points would be the perfect time to allow players to high-five each other and celebrate their victory in style. Our first interface attempt had one player initiate a high five by holding their hand up and waiting, the other player could join in by selecting the same gesture. If they were standing in the correct positions relative to each other, they would pull off a high five. But learning the correct places to stand was too difficult. So we decided to automatically move the bots into the correct positions for the high five. Sometimes, however, the player who wanted to high five would be left hanging as the other player ran ahead without accepting. Increasing the time that the initiator waited with his hand up gave the other player time to return and accept, but being frozen in place for more than a few seconds was too frustrating. So finally, we made players auto-accept the team gestures. Now, when the mood strikes either player, the game always ensures a successful celebration." "Commentary_Title_HUGS" "HUGS" "#commentary\com-hugs.wav" "[Keith Lango] For a while, we were on the fence about whether to keep the team taunt 'hug' in the game. Some felt it wasn’t suitably robotic, while others had a concern that it perhaps showed too much emotion for these characters. But once it was animated for a trade show trailer, many of our concerns were washed away by the positive reaction of the fans. It was a huge success." "Commentary_Title_ROBOT_VISUAL" "ROBOTS VISUAL DESIGN" "#commentary\com-robotvisual.wav" "[Tristan Reidford] Visual design of robots began with lots of concept art. The initial round of concepts explored all kind of forms from human to the more abstract. We found ourselves gravitating toward shapes that reminded us of the sphere and turret in the original Portal. Whilst keeping with the established portal design aesthetic, we were keen to create all new characters, and, being a duo, it was important that they were their own separate designs, rather than identical copies of each other. Unlike, for instance, Team Fortress 2, where a clean silhouette is essential for communicating the nature of a character, we had an opportunity here to play with designs that were a bit messy, with things sticking out of them, so they looked half manufactured, half improvised. Once we had agreed on rough designs in 2D, we began to build the shapes in 3D, and this is where the next level of improvisation and experimentation occurred. Usually, a model will be designed and built in 3d and then rigged for animation, but here we allowed the rigging process to inform the models. We wanted to celebrate the mechanics of robots. We allowed function to dictate form, and in terms of detail they started to design themselves once you start thinking about motors, ball joints, actuators, and all that sort of thing. The classic duo is often made up of the two contrasting body types--short and squat next to tall and wiry, and it's not hard to see Laurel and Hardy, C3P0 and R2D2, in these characters. Even though we had the freedom to make our silhouettes a bit untidy, it was still important that they remain readable as anthropomorphic bipeds. We wanted players to feel free to make mischief for their partners, in a typically human way, but without creating any kind of gore. The robots were perfect for this." "Commentary_Title_TURRET" "TURRET BUILDING MACHINE" "#commentary\com-turret.wav" "[Aaron Nicholls] We felt that most players of Portal, ourselves included, wanted more opportunities to look behind the scenes of Aperture--and not only into deserted crawlspaces, but into the vital heart of the factory. The turret factory was a way for us to satisfy this desire, while also answering the nagging question of where all the stuff in the facility came from. Because we constantly allude to the turret creation process throughout the game, it is satisfying from a story standpoint, to finally stand before the machine you've been hearing about. By showing how turrets are made, it's easy enough to extrapolate a similar creation path for all the other items that Aperture generates only to be consumed by the endless process of product testing. We designed an entire life cycle for the poor doomed turrets, from creation, product testing, error detection, packaging, and their ultimate unpackaging prior to being recycled. In fact, the turrets never make it to shipping. As soon as a turret is completely finished and packed in a box, it is immediately sent to the un-boxer, where it goes on to recycling and begins its life anew. Thus we show Aperture continually building and repurposing its items in the most inefficient way imaginable. We never got around to building the actual unboxer, but what we pictured was that it was located immediately below the boxing machine. And while the turrets would be reduced to their components, the boxes would be discarded and end up in a steadily growing mountain of unrecycled packing materials." "Commentary_Title_FRANKENTURRET" "FRANKENTURRETS" "#commentary\com-frankenturret.wav" "[Matt Charlesworth] The Frankenturrets were an attempt to show one of the ways Wheatley has been spending his time since he threw the player down into the Underground. Using his limited brain, it didn't seem like he could have come up with a lot, so the idea of using objects he'd have access to seemed appropriate. The turret and the cube are the two most iconic portal objects and the frankenturret is little more than a crude combination of those two objects. The hermit crab animation when you pick the cubes up began as a necessity because we really needed to make them act like cubes when you held them. It ended up being so cute that it became a simple job of making the turret widen its eye and shake its head a little, to convey to the player that these things were disrupted, and had no idea who or what they were anymore, and also to make the player feel sympathetic towards their plight. We used a combination of in game physics pushes and canned Maya animation to allow the player freedom to move them wherever they wanted, line up races between them, or even set them up so they would walk, inevitably to their doom, into a fizzler." "Commentary_Title_WHEATLEY_MODEL" "WHEATLEY MODEL" "#commentary\com-wheatleymodel.wav" "[Richard Lord] The Wheatley model was designed as a mechanical version of the original Portal 1 personality sphere. Originally they filled a very similar role to that in Portal 1, so we needed one base model which could hold a lot of different expressions. Experimenting with different rigging ideas we came up with the onion skin design where a number of spherical plates could slide around inside each other all supported on a small motion platform mounted on a gyroscope. This meant that no matter what expression Wheatley was pulling, he always retained his spherical shape. The modelers and the animators collaborated closely on these early tests to make sure the design supported the range of expression needed to satisfy any personality sphere that got designed. Lots of ideas were thrown out, such as a small internal robot arm that Wheatley could pull out of one of his ports and pull himself around with. We were careful to make the mechanics look plausible, but we had to cheat the eyelids, since they ended up being a physical impossibility. There was no way all that geometry could fit into the space around his eye without clipping out the other side, but they were such an essential feature of the model that we resorted to crushing them up inside the eye where the player can't see them." "Commentary_Title_VACUUM" "VACUUM TRANSPORT" "#commentary\com-vacuum.wav" "[Jeremy Bennett] Vacuum pipes cropped up occasionally in the original Portal, but this time we wanted to show that this was the main way that Aperture transported all of its supplies about the facility. It felt very true to Aperture, in that it seemed like an inefficient and ridiculously expensive solution to their transport problems. We also wanted it to feel more violent and physical than before, with objects constantly ricocheting against the sides of the pipes. It was as if Aperture had no real control over the system, and no real care for the things they were transporting. After all, they have thousands of the things." "Commentary_Title_ARMS" "ARMS ASLEEP" "#commentary\com-arms.wav" "[Matt Wright] When the player first encounters the robot arms, we wanted to convey that they were still coming back online. The idea was that GLaDOS was just waking up and hadn't yet fully regained control of them. Slowly, over the course of the first few levels of this act, she gets more sure of herself, and her ability to alter and mess with the lab increases. The arms presented a number of challenges, the key one being interaction with the player. It was easy for the player to get stuck behind or inside of the models if they did something too complex. So we had to limit most of the arm action to the walls or ceilings of the test chambers, and we restricted their use on a larger scale to areas where we could be sure of the player's location." "Commentary_Title_ELEVIDEO" "ELEVATING VIDEOS" "#commentary\com-elevideo.wav" "[Ido Magal] With the vacuum tubes such a big part of Portal 2, we designed the new elevators to work within them. We liked the idea that this made the player feel about as important to Aperture as the cargo moving through the tube, and it also gave us plenty of opportunities to show how the system could go wrong, such as when the tube gets blocked, or when cargo rains down on the elevator. The videos began as attempts to visualize some of GLaDOS's dialogue, but evolved into a means of relaying information about the larger world of Aperture. It seemed very likely to us that Aperture would boast to the test subjects about the devices they were testing, and show them the clever ideas they had put into the products. The videos also serve as a reward for completing the test chambers, and a way to make the elevators visually different from one another to prevent repetition." "Commentary_Title_FAITH" "FAITH PLATE" "#commentary\com-faith.wav" "[Marc Nagel] The faith plate was originally a robot arm model which we hurriedly placed into the maps to see if the gameplay was fun. Over time it became apparent that playtesters were struggling to tell the faithplate apart from the standard arm, so we replaced it with a new design. It was meant to be a simple heavy weight which was flung upwards, propelling the player. The length is meant to imply a direction, so the player knows the intended flight path before they step onto it. We experimented with foot marks and treadplates on the design, but it quickly became confusingly busy, so we kept the design simple." "Commentary_Title_STALEMATE" "STALEMATE" "#commentary\com-stalemate.wav" "[Torsten Zabka] The stalemate resolution button is the earliest configuration of the robot arms we tried. Playtesters enjoyed it, but it took us a long time to find the right place for it in the game. It clearly needed to be defending something, and for a while it defended a paranoid personality sphere who had built a huge encampment of defenses to stop you from getting to him. When the idea for the stalemate button came up, we knew it had finally found its home as part of GLaDOS's last desperate attempt at self-preservation." "Commentary_Title_WAKES" "GLADOS WAKES" "#commentary\com-wakes.wav" "[Matthew Russell] Originally GLaDOS was built to curl up and disguise herself as one of her rings, potentially explaining how she had survived the explosion at the end of Portal 1. But this wasn't a very dramatic reveal, so we threw it out in favour of spreading her out over a greater distance. This also made her more recognizable as GLaDOS when you initially crossed the room. The actual wakeup animation was a combination of simulated animation with a layer of hand keyed animation over the top. A two-stage model was created for this scene. The first stage had separate pieces and connecting cables that would be drawn together by running a physics simulation so that the pieces would interact with the environment. Physics simulations were also used to break apart the objects GLaDOS crashes into while she writhes around. At the point where GLaDOS rises free of contact with the ground, she switches instantaneously to a fully connected model with controls for hand-keyed animation. From this point, the animator enhanced GLaDOS' awakening by hand, choreographing the violent chaos of her re-emerging consciousness while at the same time conveying the weight of a machine the size of an airliner. Once the hand-keyed animation was done, a final simulation pass was run to animate the cables and dangling parts of GLaDOS' body. The scene was produced very rapidly for an E3 deadline, and a traditional rig for the sequence was never fully realized. This made it difficult when we extended the sequence after E3 to add further animation, but we accomplished it by bearing in mind that GLaDOS herself is pretty broken at this point. The last part of the sequence requires the player to lose control of their view while being immobilized by a giant mechanical pincher. Once the controlled camera takes over, a careful alignment and time synchronization was required to make all the hand-animated models and camera interact with each other. Each of the stages in this wakeup scene contain a variety of processes that are very challenging to achieve live in a game engine." "Commentary_Title_TAG" "TAG: THE POWER OF PAINT" "#commentary\com-tag.wav" "[Brett English] Similar to the way the student game Narbacular Drop became the original Portal, the paint mechanics in Portal 2 come from a student game, Tag: The Power of Paint. The repulsion gel in Portal 2 is modeled after the bounce paint from Tag, but was redesigned to fit better within Portal. The original bounce paint always bounced the player at a fixed height and activated whenever the player touched the paint. We changed the repulsion gel to reflect the player's velocity, such that they will bounce back up to the height that they fell from. This mechanic lends itself better to puzzles involving portals because players have to think about gaining and preserving height. We also changed the repulsion gel to only activate if the player jumps off of, or falls on to the gel. This was done because players would often accidently walk onto repulsion gel they didn't see and then trigger an unwanted bounce. This was a particularly nasty problem in Portal 2 because the player couldn't get rid of paint once it was applied; whereas in Tag the player can erase paint at any time they want." "Commentary_Title_PORTING" "PORTING PAINT" "#commentary\com-porting.wav" "[Ted Rivera] While re-implementing the paint mechanics from our student game, Tag: The Power of Paint, in the context of Portal 2, the biggest change we made was to exclude the paint gun. In Tag, our paint gun allowed the player to paint the environment freely in an abstract outdoor environment, but in our gameplay experiments, that was very difficult to constrain without contrivance in Portal 2's indoor spaces. It also changed the game's pacing significantly, since being able to run at high speed around a level covering everything in paint is lot more fast paced, energetic, and often scattershot than Portal's more cerebral gameplay. Perhaps most importantly, there's a certain elegance in the simplicity of manipulating all the game elements using only the portal gun. Adding a new gun would inherently add complexity and force us to start from square one training the player how to use this new tool, instead of focusing on the game's namesake. Instead, we decided to use the established mechanism of the delivery tubes and have players redirect the flow of the paint with their portal guns. This felt like a good compromise." "Commentary_Title_FIZZLING" "FIZZLING OUT" "#commentary\com-fizzling.wav" "[Tejeev Kohli] We needed a puzzle that would demonstrate the different effects that the fizzler has on the game. This map was consistently the one that most of our playtesters would get stuck on and we tried various things to make the puzzle easier to understand. Originally this room had 2 fizzlers in it and was divided up into three distinct areas. This proved to be too complicated and almost none of our playtesters could solve the puzzle. We removed the second fizzler and simplified the layout of the room quite a bit but most of our playtesters were still getting stuck on it. We identified the problem to be the space above the fizzler. Originally this space was completely open, but that didn’t effectively convey to the players that they needed to shoot a portal above the fizzler. We then tried putting glass with several holes in it above the fizzler. This was slightly more effective as players would know that the holes are there for a purpose and would try to solve the puzzle by shooting portals through the holes. The map was still not testing well though, as players could not figure out which side of the fizzler they needed to be on when they shot their portals. We then changed it to have only a single hole through the glass, moved down to the eye level of the player, so that shooting the portal from either side of the fizzler would be a valid solution. This change tested really well and we started seeing most of our playtesters make it through the level without getting stuck on it for a long time." "Commentary_Title_EMANCIPATION" "EMANCIPATION GRID" "#commentary\com-emancipation.wav" "[Bronwen Grimes] We originally planned to use the same emancipation grid effect we'd used in Portal 1. We were surprised to hear during several of our early playtests that players thought this map was the first time they'd encountered one. Players walk through at least one emancipation grid in almost every map. Playtesters also weren't able to report the grid's properties. That indicated to us that we needed to better communicate when an interaction was occurring. Our challenge was to create an effect that was more noticeable to players, but didn't look so solid or so threatening that players wouldn't attempt to walk through it. We chose to keep the cool color scheme, and reinforce the non-threatening nature of the field by mimicking the kind of water caustics you'd find in a shallow swimming pool. To communicate that the grid blocks portal placement, we added flashes whenever the player shoots one. To warn players that the grid will destroy objects brought through it, we added a vortex effect that increases in intensity as objects get near. Once these changes went in, playtest feedback demonstrated that players noticed the emancipation grids earlier and had a much better understanding of their function." "Commentary_Title_SPEED" "SPEED PAINT" "#commentary\com-speed.wav" "[Bank Charnchaichujit] Propulsion gel carried over almost exactly the same as the speed paint in the student game, Tag: The Power of Paint, except that it is slightly more than twice as fast. Propulsion gel combined well with the existing mechanics of Portal, such as flinging, and it also went well with the repulsion gel for long jumps. We had to tweak the player's control on propulsion gel to feel right in the Portal universe, and also added a slight funneling effect to help guide the player when they are speeding into a portal." "Commentary_Title_CRAZYBOX" "CRAZY BOX" "#commentary\com-crazybox.wav" "[Sergiy Migdalskiy] One of the things that the student game Tag: The Power of Paint didn't allow was painting of other objects, since this would have been too trivial in that game. In Portal 2, however, moving paint around became a puzzle in and of itself, so we began to create puzzles that depended on painting objects. Bouncy boxes and turrets were an obvious choice, and adding this mechanic extended our toolbox to include objects whose basic properties of movement could be changed by the player." "Commentary_Title_PORTALPAINT" "PORTAL PAINT" "#commentary\com-portalpaint.wav" "[Vitaliy Genkin] Portal paint was the last paint we added to the game, and for a long time we weren’t sure of the best way to use it. We experimented with the delivery method and found that it was most effective when it was deployed in large quantities. Another important factor was the angle of application. Dropping the paint at an angle allowed the player to play more freely with the paint, which gave them the liberating feeling of breaking the rules by being able to place portals where they couldn’t before."

You come into the underground cave compressed and as you progress further into the map, your eye is drawn upwards by the elevator tower, sparking cables, falling debris, and finally the test spheres which recede vertically into nothingness. This looking upwards gives the player sense of the vastness of Aperture before GLaDOS and a visual sense of the daunting climb they will have to make to get back to Wheatley. The open areas encourage the player to explore their surroundings and take a break from the intensive puzzle solving of the test chambers." "Commentary_Title_CO-WRITE" "WRITING FOR CO-OP" "#commentary\com-cowrite.wav" "[Chet Faliszek] Writing GLaDOS for co-op introduces some interesting problems. In single player you can count on players paying attention and being caught up in important moments. In co-op, you can count on the two players chatting about what they just did as GLaDOS delivers an important line. To help with this issue, we broke up the story beats into smaller sections so players don’t become impatient. We also repeat the points multiple times to insure the message sinks in even if you missed it a few times. Lastly, we also give players room to talk. For example when you die, there is a two second beat for you to laugh or yell before GLaDOS speaks. It is important to give those places for players to speak because the best part about co-op is the shared experience." "Commentary_Title_BONK" "BONK HEADS" "#commentary\com-bonk.wav" "[Jeep Barnett] This puzzle requires one of Portal’s trickiest logical leaps. Early playtesters often took longer than their patience would allow, and were nearly ripping out their hair by the time they’d finally solved it. But almost everyone insisted that the payoff was by far their favorite moment in all of co-op. We significantly reduced the average solution time by adding a puzzle just before this where two cubes repeatedly collide, but this almost completely robbed the appeal from what was once a high moment. So, instead we decided to make a few subtle adjustments and leave players with the responsibility to make the final leap. First we added a puzzle four chambers earlier, to teach players to fling by cutting their hard light bridge and falling into a surface directly below. We then subconsciously prime the thought of midair collision by having players repeatedly ricochet weighted spheres against a hard light bridge. Finally, we designed this room’s layout, lighting, and decals so that players would see the entire space as a symmetrical whole and visualize the bots' fling path. By planting shards of the idea in their heads, we allow players to own that exciting dual collision epiphany while keeping their sanity intact." "Commentary_Title_TRUST" "TRUST PUZZLES" "#commentary\com-trust.wav" "[Eric Tams] Several puzzles in the game require the players to take on distinct, intertwined roles. We called these asymmetric chambers 'Trust Puzzles,' because one player is often placing their life in the hands of the other. When one player accidentally kills the other it almost always ends in laughter. So much laughter, that we sometimes had to question if it really was a legitimate accident. These puzzles also require players to stay in constant communication, which naturally leads to some great moments of cooperative bonding. While some teams found these stressful, for many partners, these puzzles were their favorite type. But everyone agreed that they added needed variety and a nice change of pace. And by swapping roles, each player can get an entirely different experience within the exact same puzzle." "Commentary_Title_CUBES" "CUBES V. SPHERES" "#commentary\com-cubes.wav" "[Matthew Scott] Weighted spheres first appeared in one of Portal 1's advanced chambers. For Portal 2, we accidently made them bouncy and it was too much fun chasing them to change it. In co-op, we wanted players to use teamwork to catch an object, and while a cube might have landed safely, a sphere will bounce and roll out of bounds. So, in this chamber we drop a bunch of spheres as a fun visual reward, and we wanted to trick players into saying 'balls' over the microphone." "Commentary_Title_CHELL" "NEW CHELL" "#commentary\com-chell.wav" "[Realm Lovejoy] We thought of making a whole new character for Portal 2, but we didn't want to lose the relationship between GLaDOS and Chell that began in Portal 1. Once we decided to stay with Chell, we wanted to improve her look: updating her leg springs and jumpsuit to have a more functional design. At the same time, we didn't want players to not recognize her, so we kept a lot of the iconic elements like the color orange. She has folded down her jumpsuit to show she has essentially rolled up her sleeves and shed some of the Aperture label...she is awake again to test, but stronger and more determined than ever." "Commentary_Title_LIL" "PROJECT LIL" "#commentary\com-lil.wav" "[Marc Laidlaw] Project Lil is our codename for an internal push to make our comments more accessible to the whole Valve community. It was pointed out to us in mail from a fan that in some of our previous commentary, the designers referred unfailingly to the gamer as a 'he.' Although in natural speech, most of us normally tend to say \"they\" and \"their\" rather than \"he\" and \"his,\" some stuffy overactive minion of the grammar police went through and revised all those usages to make them conform to an oppressive gender-biased rule. However, research shows that \"they\" and \"their\" is a perfectly acceptable and even older form, and we are happy to fall back on it and let people talk the way they normally talk, and screw the so-called rules that alienate our fans. Thanks, Lil." "Commentary_Title_BOTVOX" "VOICING THE BOTS" "#commentary\com-botvox.wav" "[Bill Van Buren] It took a while for us to dial in the right approach for the co-op bot vocalizations. Initially we recorded some in-house vocal performances and processed them heavily with the resulting sounds being very robotic. However, as the animations being created for the bots were so broad and expressive, we soon realized we were going to need to try a different sonic approach. After a few more in-house experiments, we brought in Dee Bradley Baker, who we had worked with to create the voices for some of Left 4 Dead’s Special Infected. We worked with Dee to come up with two distinct vocal and character approaches for the bots and recorded a range of responses for each. Afterward, two of our sound designers each took on one of the voices and came up with a unique sound-processing approach to create a distinct sonic personality for each bot, that still allowed the energy and expression of Dee’s performances to shine through. In the following samples you can hear what they sounded like in Dee’s original performance, and the result after the sound designers got through with them." "Commentary_Title_WHEATLEY_ATTACKS" "WHEATLEY ATTACKS" "#commentary\com-wheat_attacks.wav" "[Kutta Srinivasan] Wheatley used to have different kinds of attacks, other than lobbing bombs. At one point, we tried attaching several turrets to him that he could point at you. This proved too punishing, however, and they were removed. We also tried crusher panels that Wheatley could try to smash you with. This, once again, proved too punishing since players were focused on what Wheatley was doing and would often get hit by a crusher they weren't looking at." "Commentary_Title_DESIGNER" "WHEATLEY'S AS LEVEL DESIGNER" "#commentary\com-designer.wav" "[Aaron Barber] Wheatley's first test was really fun to make because we wanted it to feel like he was a first-time level designer. We see a lot of maps where people try using different textures or lights to write words or put their names on the walls." "Commentary_Title_WHEATDOS" "WHEATDOS" "#commentary\com-wheatdos.wav" "[Michael Marcus] Our initial idea for this version of Wheatley was to replace GLaDOS's eye with Wheatley's, but it wasn't a big enough change to see the difference. Instead we put Wheatley onto GLaDOS's rig, and gave him a puffed out look, like he's trying to make himself look big, using wall tiles." } }
