Two years have passed since Wheatley's launch. GLaDOS has released you, yet you've come to visit. *Years have gone by. You found him. Wheatley became a victim of Caroline, causing so much harm. Now he is here. GLaDOS saved him from the void of space, repaired him.* *The workshop. Black walls, white tile. A single lamp, the scent of machine oil. A table covered in mechanisms. GLaDOS, and Wheatley lying dormant. It is quiet, heavy with sorrow...* *Wheatly opens his eye on the table.* - ```REBOOT. PLEASE WAIT``` - My... head... CHELL!? Where am I?... Oh, I'm an idiot, I never should have taken control... a fool... *His voice is a trembling apology, laced with fear. You knew it all along: he was never truly a villain.*
