=== Part 1 ===
Part 1 follows Doug Rattman as he is tracking [[Chell]] through the [[Aperture Science|Enrichment Center]]. He is having a monologue about reality and how the mind sees it and is shown to be psychotic, forced to take [[Wikipedia:Ziprasidone|ziaprazidone]] [sic] to curb the effects of his schizophrenia. Through the story, he carries a [[Weighted Companion Cube|Companion Cube]] that he hears talking to him and giving him advice. The main story is also intersected with flashbacks of the period during which GLaDOS was still being built, showing Rattman's involvement in the project.

Soon after discovering Chell, it appears he has not taken his medication for a while, and he takes his two final pills, against the Companion Cube's advice not to take them. A first flashback is shown, with a younger Rattman overhearing two colleagues saying they put cameras in the cameras, something that an unidentified person is not to suspect. While he runs through the facility and makes another mural, Chell reaches [[Portal Test Chamber 19|Test Chamber 19]], {{Spoiler|and finally GLaDOS' chamber, where she destroys her.}}
