SaturnCublix: Edited my talk comment to be better.

== Fact Sphere has no real name! ==

I just realized, this core doesn't have a name. (Not counting the cores from Portal 1)

Intelligence Dampening Sphere is Wheatley,

Adventure Sphere is Rick,

Space Core has been named "Kevin" in the fanmade Portal Blue Sky comic,

But Fact Core? Has never been named in game, nor by the fandom. ~ [[User:SaturnCublix|SaturnCublix]]
:In [[List of Fact Sphere facts]], the core referenced itself as "Fact Sphere", although indirectly ~ [[User:Headquarter8302|Headquarter]][[User talk:Headquarter8302|8302]] 07:44, 6 February 2022 (UTC)

SaturnCublix: Edited my talk comment to be better.

== What happened to Rick? ==
Space Core, who got sucked into space with Rick, orbits around Wheatley because he is extremely 'dense.'
However, Rick is nowhere to be seen! WHAT HAPPENED TO HIM?! ~ [[User:SaturnCublix|SaturnCublix]] 04:00, 5 May 2022 (UTC)
:Probably adventuring elsewhere, he has more self control than other corrupted cores, so he probably escaped Wheatley's orbit and gone somewhere, or maybe he didn't get captured by Wheatley's orbit of influence. We've never seen Rick ever since. ~ [[User:Headquarter8302|Headquarter]][[User talk:Headquarter8302|8302]] 04:00, 5 May 2022 (UTC)

== Exact replica = human? ==

"Throughout the Portal 2 chapter The Escape, he reveals that he has a disliking for working with humans; accusing them of "nepotism" simply because the staff gave out the jobs he preferred to other humans."

The exact quote is "I almost got a job down here in Manufacturing. But, uh, guess who the foreman went with? Only an exact duplicate of himself. Nepotism." To me, that doesn't say "humans giving the job to other humans," it says "the programmers jokingly using the word 'nepotism' to mean 'robotic foreman gave the job to a literal exact replica."

I think Wheatley is smart enough to know the difference between humans. [[User:Mortimermcmirestinks|Mortimermcmirestinks]] ([[User talk:Mortimermcmirestinks|talk]]) 11:16, 21 June 2013 (UTC)

In Portal 2, Wheately and Chell go into the production line part of Aperture. Wheatley clearly states that GLaDOS can't touch you down here. Then, Chell and Wheatley shut down the neurotoxin generator AND the turret production line. GLaDOS is the central core, she couldn't touch us down at neurotoxin/turret line, so how does Wheatley, the central core after Chell initiates a core transfer, get the neurotoxin/turret production line back online after Chell and Wheately shut it down? — ''The preceding unsigned comment was added by'' '''[[User:ColeKM3|ColeKM3]]''' ([[User talk:ColeKM3|talk]]) • ([[Special:Contributions/ColeKM3|contribs]])

== Why was Wheatley the only "normal core" after the facility shut down?. ==
Everyone knows after the events of Portal 1 GLaDOS was destroyed, a backup system woke up random cores and gave them random jobs to maintain the facility because there was no central core anymore. Wheatley was one of the cores, and we know there were several other cores who were woken up. Although some cores were corrupt and didn't do their jobs, surely there were at least a few other cores who weren't corrupt and did their jobs like Wheatley. Why was he the only one that was "normal?" To me, it doesn't make sense that ALL of the cores activated except Wheatley disappeared.
Anyone have any answers or theories? --[[User:SaturnCublix|SaturnCublix]] 03:12, 17 April 2022 (UTC)
:I think the other "normal" cores are doing their tasks in the background, and Wheatley was (unfortunately) the one assigned to tend the humans. Cores seems to have a responsibility to multitask, as evidenced by how Wheatley was able to operate the Enrichment Center's multiple core receptacles, so I guess he was given a job to take care that part of the facility, and other cores elsewhere. ~ [[User:Headquarter8302|Headquarter]][[User talk:Headquarter8302|8302]] 03:12, 17 April 2022 (UTC)

:Probably, after GLaDOS woke up again, all the other cores where turned off by her, or went into hiding somewhere, which is why we never saw any sane cores like Wheatley. --[[User:SaturnCublix|SaturnCublix]]

"Throughout the Portal 2 chapter The Escape, he reveals that he has a disliking for working with humans; accusing them of "nepotism" simply because the staff gave out the jobs he preferred to other humans."

The exact quote is "I almost got a job down here in Manufacturing. But, uh, guess who the foreman went with? Only an exact duplicate of himself. Nepotism." To me, that doesn't say "humans giving the job to other humans," it says "the programmers jokingly using the word 'nepotism' to mean 'robotic foreman gave the job to a literal exact replica."

I think Wheatley is smart enough to know the difference between humans. [[User:Mortimermcmirestinks|Mortimermcmirestinks]] ([[User talk:Mortimermcmirestinks|talk]]) 11:16, 21 June 2013 (UTC)

In Portal 2, Wheately and Chell go into the production line part of Aperture. Wheatley clearly states that GLaDOS can't touch you down here. Then, Chell and Wheatley shut down the neurotoxin generator AND the turret production line. GLaDOS is the central core, she couldn't touch us down at neurotoxin/turret line, so how does Wheatley, the central core after Chell initiates a core transfer, get the neurotoxin/turret production line back online after Chell and Wheately shut it down? — ''The preceding unsigned comment was added by'' '''[[User:ColeKM3|ColeKM3]]''' ([[User talk:ColeKM3|talk]]) • ([[Special:Contributions/ColeKM3|contribs]])

== How was he the only one "normal" when the facility shut down?. ==
Everyone knows after the events of portal 1 GLaDOS was dead and everything was destroyed.
After it was destroyed, a backup system woke up random cores and gave them random jobs to maintain the facility since there was no central core anymore. Of course Wheatley was one of the cores, and we know some cores were corrupt and didn't do their jobs,
but surely there were at least a few other cores who weren't corrupt and did their jobs like Wheatley? Why was he the only one that was "normal?" To me, it doesn't make sense that ALL of the cores activated except Wheatley were corrupt.
Anyone have any answers, theories or suggestions? --[[User:SaturnCublix|SaturnCublix]] 03:12, 17 April 2022 (UTC)
:I think the other "normal" cores are doing their tasks in the background, and Wheatley was (unfortunately) the one assigned to tend the humans. Cores seems to have a responsibility to multitask, as evidenced by how Wheatley was able to operate the Enrichment Center's multiple core receptacles, so I guess he was given a job to take care that part of the facility, and other cores elsewhere. ~ [[User:Headquarter8302|Headquarter]][[User talk:Headquarter8302|8302]] 03:12, 17 April 2022 (UTC)

:Probably,after GLaDOS woke up again, the other cores were scared and hid somewhere which is why we never saw any cores like wheatley... --[[User:SaturnCublix|SaturnCublix]]

== How did valve not notice the mistake at the end of the game ==
At the end of the game, you shoot the portal at the moon, Wheatley suddenly gets his handles back and his "flaps" disappear. How did no one at Valve notice this when they saw the animation? Just putting Chells hands on Wheatley's flaps wouldn't be hard at all... --[[User:SaturnCublix|SaturnCublix]]

SaturnCublix: WHY IS HE NAMED INTELLIGENCE CORE AND NOT CAKE CORE IN THE GAME

So, this core is called the Intelligence Core, but he doesn't say "smart" things, he just recites a cake recipe. How is that intelligent and why isn't he called "Cake Core" in the game? ~ [[User:SaturnCublix|SaturnCublix]]

In the portal 2 epilogue, Space Core, who got sucked into space with Adventure Core, orbits around Wheatley because he is so "dense."
However, Rick is nowhere to be seen! WHAT HAPPENED TO HIM?! ~ [[User:SaturnCublix|SaturnCublix]]

SaturnCublix: reply to an answer

I just realized, this core doesn't have a name. (Not counting the cores from portal 1)

Intelligence Dampening Sphere is Wheatley,

Adventure Sphere is Rick,

Space Core has been named "Kevin" in Portal: Blue Sky comic,

But Fact Core? Has never been named by the fandom.

== How was he the only one "normal" when the facility shut down?. ==
Everyone knows after the events of portal 1 GLaDOS was dead and everything was destroyed.
After it was destroyed, a backup system woke up random cores and gave them random jobs to maintain the facility since there was no central core anymore. Of course Wheatley was one of the cores, and we know some cores were corrupt and didn't do their jobs,

== Unique A.I. ==
I think it's worth mentioning that Wheatley's "unique" mind so "uniqie" so he is only known A.I. who got resistance to paradoxes, unlike GladOS, turrets and even Frankenturrets. --[[User:Comrade Suhov|Comrade Suhov]] 15:18, 8 May 2011 (UTC)

The [http://www.thinkwithportals.com/coop_survey.php official Aperture Science Collaborative Disposition Test] describes Wheatley as:

“Funny, high-strung, a bit of a motor-mouth-these are the words people would use to describe you when they’re not telling you to shut up. Your ideal cooperative test partners include people who won’t mind you bumbling around breaking things while they do all the work."

SaturnCublix: I Updated "The Cast' since everyone forgot about about this page.

[[File:Theunderground_title_card.png|thumb|300px|right|The logo of the series]]
'''The Underground''' is a video series animated by Gleb Lvov and formerly produced by Machinima. In it, there is a core called the [[The Underground#Interview Core|Interview Core]] who hosts a talk-show where "the rejected are respected and the best-case has no place." It takes place in two forgotten locations within the [[Aperture Science|Aperture Laboratories]]. Currently, there are nine released episodes, and features a cast consisting of new [[cores]], a turret band, the Mainframe, the [[Party Escort Bot]] and several others.

[[File:InterviewCore.PNG|thumb|150px|right|The Interview Core]]
=== Interview Core ===
{{Quotation|'''Ego Core''' describing the Interview Core|Don't flatter yourself, you never were a functioning part of anything.|}}

The '''Interview Core''' is a corrupted [[Cores#Personality Cores|personality core]] who appears in all episodes of the series. He escaped incineration by [[GLaDOS]] and found himself on a table, setting the literal stage for the talk-show. As the host of ''The Underground'', the Interview Core is responsible for interviewing his guests and giving answers to his possibly empty audience. {{Spoiler|He also has a Therapeutic Voice Processor, which he uses to guide two cores through couples therapy.}}

[[File:Theband.PNG|thumb|150px|right|Anthony (right) and ''The Band'']]
=== Anthony (and The Band) ===
{{Quotation|'''Interview Core''' to Anthony about the lack of good guests|Why don't we ever get anyone more intelligent, introspective. Someone like... me! I think it's because of you. Yeah, you're just driving them all away with all your sulking.|}}
'''Anthony and The Fritz Brothers Band''' is a trio of [[turrets]], two of which are [[Defective Turret|defective]]. Anthony often faces issues with his defectiveness, {{Spoiler|such as falling apart during a rimshot or having trouble with romantic interests.}}

[[File:ParanoiaCore.png|thumb|150px|right|The Paranoia Core]]
=== Paranoia Core ===
''This is about a character in The Underground. For the bounty prize item in Poker Night 2, see [[Cores#Paranoia Core|Cores]].''
{{Quotation|'''Paranoia Core'''|This is hell, isn't it? It's ''android hell'', isn't it? I knew it, I ''knew'' it was real!|sound=Paranoia_Core_Underground.mp3}}

The '''Paranoia Core''' is a corrupted personality core who appears in the first episode of the series. She is suspicious of all things, and speaks like a stereotypical conspiracy theorist, saying that it knows of "secret walls [being built] in the dead of night in secret to house all the secret boxes that contain files of all the secret rooms where all ''the real'' secrets are being kept."

{{spoiler|Some time after the first episode, the Paranoia Core is fitted to a new frame and, in effect, "becomes" the Party Escort Bot from ''[[Portal]].''}}

[[File:ProtocolCore.PNG|thumb|150px|right|The Protocol Core]]

=== Protocol Core ===
{{Quotation|'''Protocol Core'''|I'm not defective, I'm special.|sound=Protocol_Core_Underground.mp3}}

The '''Protocol Core''' is a corrupted personality core who appears in the second episode of the series. He is very knowledgeable about all Enrichment Center policies and was "hand"-picked by GLaDOS to enforce "all of her wonderful regulations." The Protocol Core is under the idea that it was created to be perfect, and as such, denies being corrupted despite being in placed into an [[Emergency Intelligence Incinerator]] prior to the episode.

{{spoiler|After the interview, he is brought before the Mainframe and disappears into a shaft underneath it.}}

[[File:AmbitionCore.PNG|thumb|150px|right|The Ambition Core]]
=== Ambition Core ===
{{Quotation|'''Ambition Core'''|You think the fact that I don't have hands is gonna keep me from flipping you the bird? Yeah! Check that out! I'm flipping you a whole damn ostrich!|sound=Ambition_Core_Underground.mp3}}

The '''Ambition Core''' is a corrupted personality core who appears in the fourth episode of the series. He has a very ardent demeanor, which he displays to everyone, including the incinerator. {{Spoiler|He tried to take over the show until he realized Anthony's incompetence.}}

{{spoiler|After the interview, he was attached to The Mainframe.}}

[[File:EgoCore.png|thumb|150px|right|The Ego Core]]
=== Ego Core ===
{{Quotation|'''Ego Core'''|It's not every day Aperture builds a core like me. Perfect! Inside and out.|sound=Ego_Core_Underground.mp3}}

The '''Ego Core'''{{spoiler|, or Onathan,}} is a corrupted personality core who appears in the fifth episode of the series. {{spoiler|Before the events of The Underground, he worked with the Interview Core processing test subjects.}} He describes himself as more intelligent and superior to the other cores, but is all the while overly egotistical. {{spoiler|After the interview, he was attached to the Mainframe.}}

[[File:Yellowblue.png|thumb|150px|right|The Friendship Cores]]

=== Friendship Cores ===
{{Quotation|'''Yellow''' about Blue|Me and dumbass here are "friendship cores". We were designed to simulate trust or something stupid like that.|sound=Friendship_Core_Underground.mp3}}

The two friendship cores, '''Yellow''' and '''Blue''' are two cores who appear in the sixth episode of the series. {{spoiler|The two cores were fused after both being smashed together by a crusher due to Blue's antics. After this, Blue was constantly berated by his partner due to his stupidity and resulted in a fight during the show. They were put through a couples therapy session by the Interview Core. Afterwards, they were separated while being taken by the claw.}}

[[File:Somethingbigger.png|thumb|150px|right|The Mainframe]]
=== The Mainframe ===
{{Quotation|'''The Mainframe''' about the Protocol Core|Hm. I don't like him.}}

'''The Mainframe''' is a somewhat enigmatic character in the series. After each interview, the cores are sent to him. Anything the Mainframe dislikes, from cores to sitcoms, go down a trapdoor controlled by him. The cores the Mainframe accepts are attached to him, in a manner not unlike GLaDOS and her coresand also his first sketches of GLaDOS.

== Trivia ==
* The Underground is written by Gleb Lvov, Mitchell McLeod, and Andrew Walker.
* The Paranoia Core is an interpretation of a [[Unused content|cut personality core]] from ''[[Portal 2]].'' While non-canon to the Portal universe, this core also makes an appearance in the game ''[[Poker Night 2]]'' as [[GLaDOS]]' bounty prize item.
*The first five episodes of The Underground were released within a short time of each other in July 2011. The sixth episode was released in late September 2013. Since its release, Gleb's YouTube channel was shut down, canceling the series as a whole for a time. However, the series has since been revived on Gleb's new channel [https://www.youtube.com/c/burgerscum burgerscum] during early 2021.
*The Mainframe is based on an early concept art of [[GLaDOS]].
