The player is introduced to the testing process and mechanics, eventually culminating in the procurement of the [[Handheld Portal Gun]]. As Chell makes her way through test chambers it becomes clear {{Spoiler|the facility is devoid of human life and GLaDOS is testing Chell for her own warped definition of 'science'. Throught the facility are hidden "dens", containing mad scribblings from an [[Doug Rattmann|unseen person]] warning others of GLaDOS.}} Motivating Chell with the promise of [[Cake]] at the end of the testing, Chell is put through tests of increasing complexity. {{Spoiler|When Chell is no longer of any use to GLaDOS, she attempts to kill her by lowering her into a fire. Thinking quick on her toes, she escapes her fiery fate using the the Handheld Portal Device, Chell makes her way through the inner facility via maintenance shafts.}} | ||

When she realizes her attempts are in vain she resorts to taunting the player whilst continuing her efforts to kill Chell. Eventually Chell reaches GLaDOS's lair, where she finally comes face to face with the rogue AI. It is revealed GLaDOS murdered everyone in the facility with deadly [[neurotoxin]] before attempting to do with the same with Chell. Using the Handheld Portal Device, Chell defeats GLaDOS by removing her AI cores and depositing them in a nearby [[Emergency Intelligence Incinerator]], resulting in a large explosion that blows a hole in the roof dragging both Chell and GLaDOS upwards. Chell awakes to find herself above ground in the parking lot of the facility, with the burning remains of GLaDOS surrounding her. The [[March 3, 2010 Patch (Portal)|March 3, 2010 Patch]] modified the ending so that Chell is dragged back into the facility by the unseen [[Party Escort Bot]].}} | ||
