SYMPTOMS

In the past 24 hours, has your student had any of the following symptoms?

What is Wheatley's name in Portal 2?

Behind the scenes. In the early stages of Portal 2 's production, Wheatley was originally to be named "Pendleton.". Wheatley was first introduced during the Portal ARG, in one of the ASCII art images given by the BBS, that later appeared to be a screenshot of him being held by Chell.

What is the purpose of Wheatley?

His intended function was to render GLaDOS less dangerous by generating a constant stream of stupid ideas, thereby distracting her and hampering her decision-making process in hopes that she would remain somewhat docile.

How does Wheatley befriend Chell?

Wheatley is talkative and friendly at first, although his main motivation in befriending Chell seems to be obtaining her help in escaping. He frequently second guesses his own decisions and is not especially assertive, always trying to persuade Chell to go along with his plans rather than demanding that she do anything. Despite his general indecisiveness, he shows initiative in seeking out Chell to act on his own escape plans. He is patient and, when his actions lead to unpleasant consequences, he is quick to take responsibility and apologize - although usually as a lead-in to asking Chell to go along with another of his plans.

Why does Wheatley choose Chell?

Unaware of Chell's history with GLaDOS, he chooses her because she is the last surviving test subject and suggests that they help one another escape.

Who crushes Wheatley in the lab?

As the duo approaches, she rises and immediately recognizes Chell. After a short monologue, GLaDOS lifts up the duo with several robotic claws and crushes Wheatley. She then has Chell sent back into the Testing Tracks through the Incinerator Room.

Does Wheatley survive the Valve Guide?

Wheatley survives the incident, and the official Valve guide explains that he managed to reactivate himself through the use of a spare core. Wheatley guiding Chell through the facility for the sabotage plan. During Chell's tests, he can be seen lifting panels to observe her from outside the testing areas.
