The laboratory is part of the Aperture Science Laboratory, researching psychoacoustics to enhance the immersive and multidimensional experience generated by Valve's most widely lauded game, Portal and its successor Portal 2.

According to Aperture, "Whether you’re a mega-science corporation with decades of test experience, or a young start-up liberating your first test subject from non-testing with a chloroform-soaked rag, Aperture guarantees results. Wake up your test subject, open the chamber door, and press play—let Aperture’s patent-pending rhythmic compliance enhancers do the rest."

Can we just focus for a moment on how durable GLaDOS's mainframe was in portal 2

That thing rebuilded itself

Survived the almost total collapse of the entire aperture science research center

Survived getting hit by bombs

Was strong enough to not get sucked out into space

And was still able to operate like nothing happened,

Was also able to survive wheatley's stupidity

cracks knuckles ALRIGHT LEITMOTIFS! Portal 2 uses SO many of them I adore it so sincerely, so much!!

–0:00-0:15 wheatley science
–at 0:16-1:39 is when the bass notes from the second part of You Know Her? play in the background as the melody continues
–0:30-1:12 the melody being i believe glados's motif! if you want to know what that sounds like, hit up Music of the Spheres

–1:39-2:20 smidge of an interlude, no discerning leitmotif i can hear off the top of my head

–2:20-2:33 what sounds like wheatley science again
–2:33-3:00 otherwise known as my FAVORITE PART, bc THIS is where you can hear the fight between glados' and wheatley's leitmotifs, all over the the frazzled, harried glitches of the mainframe! (the first couple notes of 🌾ley's theme tries to butt in at 2:36 and 2:39-2:40 and finally breaks through at 2:42. this repeats and it breaks through again at 2:56) but eventually, though:
–3:00-3:14 glados' leitmotif loses, and wheatley's continues (you can hear his best here). throughout the whole fight (2:33-3:14) the slowed bass of the second part of You Know Her? returns in the background

–3:15-3:28 another interlude there
–3:28-3:41 sounds like courtesy call! (you can actually hear the little arpeggios that play when you do long/impressive jumps in the game at 3:36 and 4:10!)
–3:42 a veerryyy slow You know her? makes its return in the background, as 🌾ley's theme plays! i was stuck on it for a while there because the D, Db, A, Bflat had the A replaced with a Cflat 😅. it keeps going as 🌾ley's theme drops out, but at 4:23 it speeds up to the same tempo it had at the beginning. (0:16)
–3:52-4:12 wheatley's motif kicks back up again, completely monopolizing the melody.
–4:37 glados motif comes back, and soon after it does:
–4:51-5:18 wheatley's motif joins in, and they start fighting again, with 🌾ley's motif doing that butting-in thing and breaking through. all the while, the mainframe's glitch plays, and the slow bass from You Know Her? is still playing. it's essentially a repeat of 2:33-3:00
–5:18 You Know Her? speeds up to the tempo it had at the beginning and continues to the end. it never really stopped since 3:42, just kept slowing down/speeding up

SO in total, we've got five leitmotifs (6 if you count the mainframe glitches):
-wheately science
-GLaDOS' leitmotif (music of the spheres)
-wheately's leitmotif (i am not a moron)
-courtesy call
-the base from You Know Her?

anyways portal 2 is a mastery of music and i would hug the OST if it had a physical form

Intro:
Destruction leitmotif (heard during the second part of OMG what have he done)

First part:
Mainframe leitmotif (heard during the second part of You Know Her?)
GLaDOS leitmotif (Music of the Spheres reprise)
Mainframe leitmotif

* Interlude 1 (random glitch noise)

Second part:
GLaDOS leitmotif
Wheatley leitmotif (I'm Not A Moron reprise)

* Interlude 2 (random glitch noise)

Third part:
Wheatley leitmotif
Destruction leitmotif
GLaDOS leitmotif
Mainframe leitmotif

So basically this final boss fight theme features Wheatley and GLaDOS struggling over the control of the facility while the destruction rages on and the menace of the mainframe (which drives any AI plugged into it into insanity and is arguably the real villain of Portal 2 ) blazing over them.

"You know what? I'm going to give a sporting chance, and turn off the Neurotoxin! I'm joking, of course. Goodbye!"
- Wheatley

He was a smug bastard.
If only he wasn't so stupid and corrupt by the Central Core
Makes me wonder what Glados would be like if she wasn't constantly under the influence of the Central Core...
She'd probably be able to imagine everyone dying of neurotoxin much more clearly...

Four Part Plan is this:
1. Set up February 2022 Nintendo Direct
2. Add a trailer of the 2 portal games coming to the switch in that Direct
3. Wait until it’s time for the Nintendo Direct to start

Which leads us to our number 4. Trailers for throwing at you

Edit: If anyone saw Nintendo Direct February 2022, you’ll understand what I mean

Can we just appreciate that when PotaDOS tries to fry Wheatley’s circuits with a paradox, not only does Wheatley not even recognize it as such, but the walking cubes in the room do self-destruct.

Wheatley’s barely sentient abominations of science are still more capable of critical thinking than he is.

Astrophysics Person

I think the key is that Wheatley simply doesn't reevaluate the situation, ever. This causes him to make bad decisions because he doesn't reevaluate information he's given. He takes everything at face value. He decides the statement is true, and doesn't check if that affects the trueness of the statement. Thus, he's unaffected by the paradox because he only looks at one layer of it. Other robots have to actively avoid doing that because they get stuck in the loop so easily.

Not many people acknowledge this, when you attach the space core to Wheatley during the final boss it says that system corruption is at 50%, while all the other cores only count to 25% of the corruption. Now this could mean one of two things.
1.) Space core is significantly more corrupt than the other cores.
2.) Wheatley has been corrupted by the mainframe and counts to 25% of the corruption.

Captain Hammer

I swear before the battle the announcer says that central core corruption is at 25%. Wheatley is already 25% corrupt.

Seems kind of odd that Wheatley, Space Core, Adventure Core, and Fact Core are all exactly 25% corrupt... maybe it's the same glitch in all personality cores?

@Polonium Pigeon GLaDOS was constructed specifically for the mainframe, thats why her name is GLaDOS. She is supposed to be the mainframe.

Polonium Pigeon

@Prev Isn't GLaDOS the massive core with a yellow eye controlling the mainframe at the start and end of portal 2? Because if they called her mainframe GLaDOS, that wouldn't make sense if we called her general thing of the core and mainframe GLaDOS. Wheatley wouldn't be called GLaDOS on the mainframe so I dont think it would make sense for the other core to be called GLaDOS while on the mainframe. Also, POTaTOS existed while the mainframe still existed, so GLaDOS couldn't be the mainframe.

Even if he killed chell, the facility would blow up and kill him. His four step plan failed before he even created it. Really sucks for him. It’s clear in the song motifs and game that he was corrupted my the GlaDOS mainframe, he never intended to betray you.

Actually no, i believe wheatley know that chell would win the battle

Just like in one of his dialogue, He is trying to trick chell into thinking that she has a chance to beat him

Thats why he is so confident to put 7 bloody bombs on the stalemate button that will absolutely tear chell apart in a realistic scenario

Unfortunately, chell somehow survived

I like how he makes an effort to avoid all of GlaDOS's mistakes killing you, but ends up remaking her BIGGEST mistake (shooting explosives at Chell), only this time as a purely conscious decision rather than being unable to shut them off. If he'd just let the neurotoxin run its course he would have "won".

Shame too because he did make a smart decision to boobytrap the stalemate button I like to think in the final battle wheatley decided to make the most unworkable plan so that his program would make him do the opposite and make a somewhat component decision like watching the tapes of GLaDOS's death getting shields and boobytrap the stalemate button as he wasnt designed to be an idiot but was programmed look for his optimal outcome and to just make wrong choices so by making a stupid plan he would do the opposite and make compotent decisions

Remember, he was an Intelligence Dampening Sphere. He wouldn't have been told about the Gels, and IIRC he never saw the Conversion Gel get used, thus meaning he never knew what it could do. If he had known, he would likely have gotten rid of the Gel early, and made it actually impossible to beat him. He was smart, just not fully informed.

@Arthur Pietro Garcia Because if GLaDOS had made it, he would have had access to it during the hours Chell spent below ground

The gels only connected to Aperture once Chell reopened one of the transition hatches, meaning Wheatley could logically assume the gels were an antique, obsolete testing element.

no, he literally says during the fight:"This conversion gel must be decades old you are probaly ridden with dieseases" how does he know that the gel is decades old rather than an invention GLaDOS made just before the switch.

It just occurred to me, if Wheatley kept testing Chell, he probably would have not got corrupted. It’s obvious he was fine before he tried to let her free, when she was going to the surface, the mainframe corrupted him so she could not leave.

when I listen to this, Yeah it sounds like it. When I fought Wheatley for the first time I just stopped for a second and listened and the music always seemed familiar yet, it was something I didn't heard. It's obviously representing how GLaDOS and Wheatley are fighting over the control. GLaDOS and Wheatley are basically little kids and Mainframe is the older kid who tries to stop the situation, but the Destruction comes in like another problem to fight over.

@Owlismyfavouritecolor Flame perish GLaDOS has a lot more willpower. She's over the whole itch thing. Being out of the mainframe, the "throne room" of Aperture helped her grow into more than a testing machine. She's able to have her own wants outside of what the enrichment center demands of her.

No the mainframe is not the main villan, the only thing it does is make them wanna test, according to you the villains are the idiots of aperture who have good manufacturing practices, Wheatley did plan the whole thing of becoming leader, and even after going back to the mainframe GlaDOS is secretly still nice (baby birds cutscene)

This is a great fight. Wheatley wasn't programmed to be stupid, just make stupid decisions. Watching the tapes of GLaDoS getting defeated and modelling his strategy after that footage was actually very smart. His downfall was over-analysing GlaDoS's flaws, and not paying attention to the holes in his plan. The bombs would've worked if Chell couldn't make portals, so instead of getting rid of the bombs, he just made the room black.

I know people think is impossible for this to go so perfectly, but remember the mainframe for GLaDOS was designed to make puzzles, and there always had to be a solution. GLaDOS could hide it very well, but Wheatley was an idiot and was much worse at being sneaky or clever. That's my personal theory on how Chell survives these insane battles, because there's always a "solution" to the "puzzle", it's just in the code of the mainframe itself

Because I'm not the best gamer in the world it took me a little while to work out a few of the things I had to do in the battle to beat him and so I got to hear a lot of his frustrated rant. How upset he seems, coupled with the music, conspires to make this one of the most heartbreaking final bosses ever.

@Sunny in a present, what will he do? Yeah, but what I meant was, who was left to fire him?

Plus, with no Half-Life 3, we're left to assume that Earth was left barren after the invasion save for the plants, the birds, the field that Chell gets sent up in, etc.

@Squeak The Swan Wheatley is capable of getting into trouble, remember wheatley talked about nepotism and how he was forced to watch over the humans during the part after you escape GLaDOS it should be enough to assume that wheatley would be fired from the human monitoring job and be given other jobs (or just dismantle him).
