Since ''[[Portal 2]]'' is set thousands of years after the events of ''Portal'', the entire Enrichment Center has been degrading and overgrown. And most [[Cores#Personality Cores|personality cores]] that were awakened after the destruction of [[GLaDOS]] has long since been corrupted or destroyed in the surroundings. In turn, no personality cores have tried to reactivate GLaDOS or to replace her position as the central core with themselves since the chamber is out of their reach. The Central AI Chamber is evidently untouched for centuries. | Since ''[[Portal 2]]'' is set thousands of years after the events of ''Portal'', the entire Enrichment Center has been degrading and overgrown with nature.

When [[Chell]] and [[Wheatley]] journey across the Central AI Chamber during the beginning of the single-player campaign, they are forced to enter the main breaker room beneath the chamber in an attempt to access an elevator to the surface. As they enter the breaker room, Wheatley accidentally triggers all the wrong buttons and ends up lifting each other back to the main chamber and reactivating GLaDOS in the process. {{spoiler|As she awakes, she immediately notices their presence and disposes of Wheatley before throwing Chell into her testing tracks.}} | When [[Chell]] and [[Wheatley]] journey across the Central AI Chamber during the beginning of the single-player campaign, they are forced to enter the main breaker room beneath the chamber in an attempt to access an elevator to the surface.

{{spoiler|As of the chapter ''The Escape'', GLaDOS has completely redesigned the chamber to her liking as she gained more control over the facility without the restrictions of the cores originally attached to her. The room is now half-spherical, made entirely out of test chamber [[panels]], and is considerably deep underground. Chell returns to the chamber to confront GLaDOS but falls into a trap in the process via a [[Relaxation Vault]]. When GLaDOS finds out that Chell and Wheatley had sabotaged her [[Turrets]], she opts for poisoning Chell with [[neurotoxin]]. As the neurotoxin tube is lowered into the chamber by moving panels aside, Wheatley arrives via the tube and manages to break all the glasses sealing the Relaxation Vault. The [[Announcer]] then manages to detect the presence of another core in the room and instructs Chell to initiate a core transfer to replace the [[Cores#Central Core|central core]] with Wheatley. To do this, the facility deploys a stalemate resolution annex into the chamber, beyond GLaDOS' control. To stop her, GLaDOS could only move a few panels on the floor inside the annex. The process succeeds when Chell presses the stalemate button to disable GLaDOS' control over the central core. Shortly after, GLaDOS is forcibly detached from the central core via the white maintenance hatch beneath her for Wheatley to be attached into it.}} | {{spoiler|As of the chapter ''The Escape'', GLaDOS has completely redesigned the chamber to her liking as she gained more control over the facility without the restrictions of the cores originally attached to her.

As Wheatley begins to grow mad with power, he uses the white core maintenance hatch beneath the central core to extract GLaDOS into a potato battery as revenge. Both Chell and the potato battery GLaDOS were then accidentally plunged into the depths of the Enrichment Center as Wheatley punches the elevator down using the core maintenance arms.}} | ||
{{spoiler|The chamber is visited for the last time in the single-player campaign, when Chell and GLaDOS began working together to place the latter in charge again when it was evident that that Wheatley was unable to handle the facility and was planning on killing them. The chamber appears to have been rearranged to his liking and instead, the chamber is much closer to the surface again as the moon could be spotted just above the chamber when the panels start to tear apart. Wheatley has also added various gel tubes around his chamber for unknown reasons. Like GLaDOS, Wheatley was bound by protocols and was unable to prevent deploying a stalemate resolution annex to the chamber. When Chell won the conflict against Wheatley, GLaDOS instead plunged the latter into space.}} | {{spoiler|The chamber is visited for the last time in the single-player campaign, when Chell and GLaDOS began working together to place the latter in charge again when it was evident that that Wheatley was unable to handle the facility and was planning on killing them.
