Portal 2 has one of the best villains in gaming. Don’t believe me? That’s ok I didn’t believe myself when I saw Hillary Clinton Running for president.
Political jokes aside let’s continue.
Wheatley is shown off as this small funny character that has one objective, which is escaping. Or at least that’s how it starts.
We get to a point where Wheatley needs to detach from his rail. He claims that if he does this he might die.
Eventually he detaches and he’s fine. This does however raise the question, why was he told he could die?
Let’s push that question to the side for now.
GlaDOS is woken up, she almost kills Wheatley, and that’s the last you see of him for a while. Now of course you see him a little bit most of it is just him talking about how he’s going to save you. Until-
[quote]Wheatley: Hey buddy! I'm speaking in an accent that is beyond her range of hearing... I know I'm early, but we have to go right NOW! Walk casually toward my position and we'll go shut her down.
GlaDOS: Look metal ball, I can hear you.
Wheatley: Run! I don't need to do the voice. RUN![/quote]
I forgot mention, Wheatley is kind of dumb.
After running far enough away we get to a point where the lights turn off and we are in complete darkness. Wheatley turns on his flashlight and again says that they told him he would die if he did.
We cause a Defective turret rebellion, Wheatley continues to show how incompetent he is, we disable some neurotoxin and come face to face with GlaDOS.
Skip ahead and the automated system is like-
You’re a replacement core Wheatley.
Wheatley: I’m a wot?
You are a replacement core!
Wheatley: But I’m just Wheatley.
No, just Wheatley, you are a real replacement core.
I smack a button and Wheatley gains control of everything. But wait! Wasn’t the plan to escape Aperture? This was never what was intended.
Thought I would slip in a le funny meme. When Wheatley speaks in a different language he says- You are using the translation software incorrectly please consult the manual.
Wheatley is happy, I’m in a lift, GlaDOS is silent, and Wheatley is laughing with malicious intent... wait a minute.
[quote]Wheatley: Actually why do we have to leave right now?[/quote]
Wheatley. Wat r u doin? Wheatley! Stahp! Non’t.
Wheatley believes that he did all the work becomes angry claiming that all you did was boss him around. But then...
[quote]GlaDOS: I know you
Wheatley: Sorry, what?
GlaDOS: The engineers tried everything to make me behave, to slow me down. Once they even attached an intelligence dampening sphere on me. It cling to my brain like a tumor, generating an endless stream of terrible ideas. It was your voice.
[spoiler]Oh yeah, it’s all coming together.[/spoiler]
Wheatley: No! I'm not listening! I'm not listening!
GlaDOS: Yes. You’re the tumor.
Wheatley: No! No! You're LYING! You're LYING!
GlaDOS: You’re not just a regular moron. You were designed to be a moron.
Wheatley: I am NOT! A MORON!
GlaDOS: YES YOU ARE! YOU’RE THE MORON THEY BUILT TO MAKE ME AN IDIOT![/quote]
(It is never truly revealed wether or not Wheatley already knew that he was built to be a moron. However it would explain his huge outburst of anger almost as if he wanted to forget why he was created and GlaDOS is bringing back bad memories.)
[quote]Wheatley: Well, how about now? NOW WHO'S A MORON? Could a MORON PUNCH! YOU! INTO! THIS! PIT? Huh? Could a moron do THAT?[/quote]
Like if you cry every time.
