The '''Weighted Companion Cube''' (often referred to as the '''Companion Cube''') is a recurring object in the ''Portal'' universe. It appears almost identical to the [[Weighted Storage Cube]] but with a pink heart replacing the [[Aperture Science]] logo. | The '''Weighted Companion Cube''' (often referred to as the '''Companion Cube''') is a recurring object in the ''Portal'' universe.

In ''[[Portal]]'', the Companion Cube was given to Chell in order to aid her in completing [[Portal Test Chamber 17|Test Chamber 17]]. In order to progress through the exit at the end of the chamber, the cube was dropped into the incinerator to be "euthanized".

The Companion Cube makes a prominent appearance in the ''[[Portal 2: Lab Rat]]'' comic, in which it speaks with protagonist [[Doug Rattmann]]. This appears to reference ''Portal'', in which GLaDOS states that the Companion Cube cannot speak and, if it does, its advice should be [[Media:GLaDOS_13_part1_middle-2b-2.wav|disregarded]]. | The Companion Cube makes a prominent appearance in the ''[[Portal 2: Lab Rat]]'' comic, in which it speaks with protagonist [[Doug Rattmann]].

In ''[[Portal 2]]'', {{Spoiler|GLaDOS briefly torments Chell by repeatedly destroying Companion Cubes in Test Chamber 7. It is as this point that GLaDOS claims that the Cubes are in fact [[Media:GLaDOS_sp_a2_pit_flings06.wav|sentient]], which suggests that they possess some level or rudimentary intelligence similarly to [[Turrets]]. The Cube also makes an appearance in the Co-op campaign but is inaccessible, preventing the player from interacting with it. After Chell leaves the facility upon completing Portal 2, a scorched Companion Cube is ejected after her. This Cube is not the newly-designed Portal 2 Companion Cube, but is the same as the cube from ''Portal''. The Companion Cube in ''Portal 2'' hums an excerpt of [[Turret Opera|Cara Mia]] which can be heard when the Cube is nearby.}} | In ''[[Portal 2]]'', {{Spoiler|GLaDOS briefly torments Chell by repeatedly destroying Companion Cubes in [[Portal 2 Chapter 2 Test Chamber 7|Test Chamber 7]].
