![]() It is possible that they are a variant of the robot worker, or perhaps predecessors of ATLAS and P-body. The title "android" suggests a humanoid appearance. He also urges Test Subjects to report if the androids begin to disregard human rights. He assures Chell that they have been taught to read and given a copy of The Laws of Robotics to share. They are mentioned again in the ruins of Test Chamber 03 in Portal 2, where the Announcer states their involvement at the end of the test. This is supported by the fact that GLaDOS mentions sending Wheatley to this chamber as a punishment. In Portal 2, android hell may be related to the "chamber built where all the robots scream at you" mentioned. Assuming it was not a lie, as GLaDOS is prone to do, this may be an area where androids are punished, tortured, partially (or fully) destroyed, or merely a frightening term for the Emergency Intelligence Incinerator.Īs GLaDOS' message is rather menacing, androids most likely do feel pain or fear for the message and the so-called "android hell" to have a purpose. ![]() GLaDOS also reminds that the Enrichment Center's "android hell", where androids are sent "at the first sign of defiance", "is a real place". After the test is over, GLaDOS' message seems to be automatic, as she addresses Chell as if she was an android herself while she congratulates her for succeeding. In the chamber, Chell is first confronted by the Aperture Science Sentry Turrets and must defeat them with Weighted Storage Cubes sent through portals she creates with her portal gun. ![]() While the chamber is highly dangerous and improper for human test subjects, GLaDOS merely apologizes "for the inconvenience" and wishes Chell "the best of luck". To keep suspicions and frightened guests to a minimum, they decided to call the cyborgs…. “androids”.During her series of tests, Chell is told by GLaDOS that the appropriate Test Chamber 16 is currently unavailable due to mandatory scheduled maintenance and that it has been replaced with "a live-fire course designed for military androids". ![]() The experiment of course failed and they didn’t want him to go to waste like the others, so they gave him some work around the facility- Like making coffee… and taking care of the lives of 10,000 test subjects… He signed a massive contract that he didn’t care to read and they took him apart, downloaded and recoded his brain, placed him in a complete robotic body and plugged him into GLaDOS in hopes of a solution to her madness. or whatever” on his mind, he immediately signed up, took the test, and ended up the best suited for the project. With the idea of becoming “superman–or spiderman…. A scientist approached him with word of an exam that was being held to look for a person with the “best IQ” for a “specialized experiment”. Wheatley was a volunteered test subject trying to work his way into being a scientist in Aperture Labratories (no idea how he was going to accomplish it that way). I intend on making a visual story of it in the future, it’ll make more sense then hahah…. Okay so I was going to completely type out Android!Wheatley’s backstory but I am so so so bad at words that it made no sense, so I guess I will sum it up real quick. Android!Wheatley’s backstory(?) under the cut!
