Exile vilification
{{SpoilerHeavy}}
'''"Exile Vilify"''' is {{Spoiler|an easter egg in the form of}} a song {{Spoiler|in one of [[Doug Rattmann|Rattmann's den]] in [[Portal 2]].}} Originally, it was intended as a “fake ending,” where the player would find a hole in the roof of Aperture Science, and the moon would be visible. The player would shoot a portal at the moon and would be sucked in. Once the player dies, credits would roll, and “Exile Vilify” would play in the background. This easter egg, however, was removed, due to how playtesters easily overlooked it.
 
The whole song evokes the relationship between [[Chell]] and [[GLaDOS]] as the former navigates the rebuilt Enrichment Center. {{Spoiler|Fragments of the lyrics appear on the walls in a form of graffiti made by Doug in a hidden section, where the song is playing on a radio if the position of the radio is right.}}
