[roblinsproductions]

yeah coolgames it a frankenturret

[Zeng101]

I like how the Rat Man hurries to Chell to bring her the Cube, its emotional to me :'3

[gam3fr3ak179]

@Zeng1015 d5d get her the c4be  4n3ess y64 want t6 2n6w why 5 d5d 5t 14st 2n6w what 50 say5ng

[Zeng101]

@gam3fr3ak179 I dont understand this message, well kind of just dont get what your saying with the 5's @.@

[101CommanderWarfare]

i thought this was in latin

[WyldJezter]

Not gonna lie first time heard this i cried

[lexhus]

Guys wtf is that all around the turrets at 0:23 ?

[101CommanderWarfare]

@lexhus its chell's potato battery thats now overgrown and is all around the facility

[lexhus]

@101CommanderWarfare Is that what's powering the whole instalation?

[maxman1357924680]

ya know glaDOS is speekin Italian here right?

[C4uB3Tjn]

Did anyone notice that Chell , Caroline and Cave John all start with the C ?

[Legoworks5]

This is the most beautiful thing ive ever listened to

[portalfan911]

whats the message?

[TheTechnoman7]

@portalfan911 It's in the description.

[123mrdestruction]

@OKMasterChief117 actually chell's adopted

[AnvilPro100]

@123mrdestruction exactly, so maybe Caroline gave away Chell.

On a side note though, i don't exactly think GLaDOS is sending Chell a message, I think the Turrets are saying goodbye, The Oracle Turret was not so different after all

[Ravenfeather1313]

@123mrdestruction *rolls eyes blatantly*

[Ronnie7X]

I'm going to make up a special word just to describe WHO THE FUCK Vavle are good at devilishly hiding an Easter egg or create a god damn story of a game so complicated that Brain.exe was stopped working

Valvetastic

those guys are the best

[Ravenfeather1313]

@Ronnie7X Hmmm...Valvetastic....I like it! =3

[Ronnie7X]

@OKMastercheif117 does that mean Cave = Rattmann ??

[mausb]

what is that at 0:23 ? to me it looks like a bullsquid from half life 1

[AuraaPlaatinuM]

So caroline is caves wife & secretary...and they put carolines mind into glados? Why would they force their daughter chell to test?

[CrashArchives]

@AuraaPlaatinuM From what I read Chell was rejected for testing so after GlaDOS went crazy Rattman rigged it to test her first because she was unresponsive which is suppose to be the reason she's mute because she doesn't want glados to have the satisfaction of being answered. Rattman knew she would break through glados's AI and attempt to kill her. After Chell was brought back in he turned on the life supporrt so when they were awoken again she could escape but then there was Wheatly.

[aliastheabnormal]

The lyrics really fit GLaDOS.

[epicflyingtaco]

if cave is carolines daughter then why is the ratman so obsessed with her?

[ApertureMiku]

@OKMasterChief117 Isn't caroline cave's daughter ?

[Assassinscreetard]

@ApertureMiku No but Chell is Caroline's and Cave's daughter...

[ApertureMiku]

@Assassinscreetard you sure ?

[Assassinscreetard]

@ApertureMiku very! If you look deep enough it is obvious and GLaDOS is *spoilers* caroline meaning technically GLaDOS is another version of Chell's mum. GLaDOS is Chell's mum!!!!

[Assassinscreetard]

@Assassinscreetard Also why would the turrets start singing goodbye like that without a true relationship between the characters andd one line she talks about farewell my daughter...

[Dragodemon000]

8 months later and...yep this song STILL MAKES ME CRY GODDAMMIT

[paladyn330]

@OKMasterChief117 i know it faster.AND Wheatley is the son of Cave Johnson and Brother of Chell.Space Core is Brother of Cave Johnson.

[Tubito09]

Everybody in this video knows that Ellen Mclein didn't to much about the italian so she sang with her "Horrible school italian language" right? This means she sang with a bad ascent and invent some lyrics. Does any of this makes any for you, just thumps up me, yeah come on just click it :D

[coolgamesandmovies]

anyone noticed the shadow on the right i the light behind the turrets at 0:58

[destructicon400004]

@coolgamesandmovies its a franken turret

[ChrisJMichaels]

@coolgamesandmovies i think it was one of Wheatly's cube/turret hybrids.

[vallu111]

@coolgamesandmovies It's Rattman!

[jimithepro]

@coolgamesandmovies 1.most of the ppl that see this think that its ratman but its not

2.its a frankencube

[BenMan1231]

@coolgamesandmovies Believe it or not, that is, indeed, Ratman. He's the basis of the story. Look more into the story, or read the comic. But he is the ENTIRE backstory to Portal.

[IBriansit0]

@BenMan1231 NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU­UUUUUUUUUUUUU, IM FKING TIRED OF PEOPLE SAYING THAT HE IS RATMAN , THAT IS NOT RATMAN, ITS THE FREKIN FRANKEN TURRET. DANGIT. >:(

[meimeihughes]

@BenMan1231 It's not Ratman, there is a video that zooms in on the image and proves it's a TurretCube (or FrankenTurret).

[IBriansit0]

@coolgamesandmovies Frankent turret, dont listen to these dumbasses that say that its ratman.

[Schoolzorz343]

@coolgamesandmovies Sorry guys, that's actually just the companion cube flowing through an excursion funnel.

[meimeihughes]

@Schoolzorz343 there's no tube there though. it's one of wheatly's frankenturrets.

[Ronnie7X]

@coolgamesandmovies that's the Turrent-cube thingy that Wheatly made

[GrozTheEmperor]

@coolgamesandmovies frankenturret.

[25Mexx]

@coolgamesandmovies thats one of those messed up cubes/turrets weatly made :)

[Peanutbuttr2468]

@25Mexx Frakenturret

[guardiangamer91]

@coolgamesandmovies it's the rat man

[dorororocks702]

@coolgamesandmovies frankin cube the cube wheatley made

[gam3fr3ak179]

@dorororocks702 everyone thinks its ratman im somewhere else you know people

[lexhus]

@coolgamesandmovies frankenturret

[seafireofatlantis]

beautiful but ithought glados only spoke english and spanish

[TheMEEKA1369]

If you kissing really carefully you can here the turet say SHE HATE US

[kckinsmcg]

@TheMEEKA1369 ...Kissing?

Can't tell if autocorrect on phone

Or just... o_o

[seafireofatlantis]

@TheMEEKA1369 actually it says scienza the italian word for science

[jasongsxrful1000]

ya try che ella stima...and i dont think they would mix spanish in with italian

[jasongsxrful1000]

cara bel, cara mia bella, mia bambina, oh chell, che ella stima, che ella stima oh cara mia, addio. mia bambina cara, si que la passi lontana, si, di lontana da scienza, a lontana, mia bambina, a mia bel. a mia cara, a mia bambina, mia bambina, oh cara mi...the last words sound like addio cara, addio cara...repeating

[icannot403]

I would say it is the Italian "For I hold her in esteem." Calling her a child is yet another attempt by GLaDOS to distance herself from Chell through insults and such. But, despite her attempts, she does hold her in high regard. Opinion, of course.

[Pinefulable]

@icannot403 it is believed that she calls Chell a child because she is in fact, her mother. The lyrics quite sound like a lullaby from mother to daughter. It's another pun Valve made, it can be interpreted both ways. GLaDOS knows her identity as Caroline, and Caroline was Chell's mother or adoptive mother.

[tampusfe]

Its not italiano its Spanish

[Meruka7]

@tampusfe You're wrong, it's Italian.

[jasongsxrful1000]

@tampusfe thats funny, you think its spanish lol



[tampusfe]

@jasongsxrful1000 Yeah,it is Spanish Ellen McLain said it.

[jasongsxrful1000]

@tampusfe ellen mclain said what? that its spanish lol. ok if it is spanish what does mia bambina translate into in spanish? or cara mia, or cara bel? you cant just believe everything you hear and then turn around and say its fact...ask any spanish speaking or italian speaking person to listen and they will tell you what i am.

[Xamus37]

@jasongsxrful1000 She said in the Mid West con 2011 that she used her very bad italian for this song. I guess that's why.

[yaddayaddaman91]

@jasongsxrful1000

yes, the song is NOT in spanish, you're right.

i'm a spanish speaker by the way.

[yaddayaddaman91]

@tampusfe

no it isnt, a spanish speaker tells you.

[89BlackGatomon]

Is that really hidden in the song? Awesome...

[TheRandomkid321]

If i had a mind eraser for oinly one thing. I would erase me everything i remeber about this game expecially when i looked up the ending.

[jgjtpw]

Did anyone notice that HUGE cannon at 0:40, in the background?

[ExtremeGamer9951]

@jgjtpw its the KING of turrets. How could we miss it.

[dilster97]

@ExtremeGamer9951 your GLaD you don't need to face him in a test chamber

[ExtremeGamer9951]

@dilster97 Yeah. He does the bass near the end.

[M2Lenin]

2 dislike - 2 more launch through portal into space...

[burnoutpro15]

@M2Lenin SPAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACE

[flaetsbnort]

I think Che Lastima (pronounced the same) means the same thing as the Spanish. I'll have to check with my nonna on this.

[TheMadis19991]

I'm afraid to listen to this song again. I'm afraid to cry

[CODMw2Disturbed]

so what is original song?

[Polygon6789]

Also, my PlayStation just HAD to scratch the disk when the credit song ended for some reason.... Creepy...

[Polygon6789]

I think GLaDos let her go beacuse I heard un-said Caroline lines, and there was this one where she said "Mr. Johnson I don't want this!" So she was probably protecting herself and Chell, but she did not succeed and she was put into GLaDOS and her memories DEEPLY hidden, and GLaDOS forgot about Chell, untill they went to the 1900 parts of Aperture Laboratories, and she found those memories...

[newfoundland3]

Heres a portal 3 idea chell has a family and has a little girl when the girl is like 18 she will run away and go to aperature then GlaDos will think the little girl is chell and put her through some tests then keep her in a room and chell has to go back and get her daughter

[KurtCobaingel]

@newfoundland3

I would play that game until my PS3 overheats!

That thing sounds amazing.

I COMMAND you to go work for Valve now so they'll make it!

Jk, but seriously. Amazing idea.

[newfoundland3]

@KurtCobaingel Ha ha that would be great we can e-mail the idea though

[LemonHobo2]

All valve projects will end with the third installation, TF3, HL3, Portal 3, Left 4 Dead 3...

[EsPoReNg]

@LemonHobo2 TF3? nah, still going strong, HL3/EP3, hopefully, portal 3, don't think so, left 4 dead 3, maybe

[Portal2Fan1337]

"Ciel" = Sky"

Maybe she'll go up to space and save Wheatley in Portal 3...

[Darkest241]

@Portal2Fan1337 Its a Franken Turret(Turret Cube)

[Miyaatan]

My heart is now broken. I apparently got waaaaay too invested into the storyline xD

[ausghost1]

i like the part of the ending where it goes up and that song plays that songs gooooood,

[tampusfe]

I think GLaDOS wants to tell something that she cant and she tell it to the turrets and the turrets made it italian just guessing

To bad i cried when i heard this song..............

[FreelancerRiley]

awwwwwww....<3 <3 <3

[smpzezoff]

oh and if youall did not know didnt know this if you saw a figure in the part with defective turrts tat was a companin cube like the one at the end

[smpzezoff]

remember when cave said he might bable to store minds on disks and GLaDOS was like carolin carolin how do i know this woman? well she might becarilin in GLaDOS'S body (or mind)

[fir3ztar]

I'ma guess that. Cave and Caroline are around 60 when chell is born and Caroline was turned into glados after chell was born or adopted or soothing

[thallh]

The thing in the background is a hybrid cube that Wheatley made it jumps around so mystery solved

[BlizzardtheWolf97]

I cry whenever I hear this. ;3;

[comicaljakeandtoxin2]

yeah i know something none of you noticed that theres a mysterious figure moving in the background whil they sing

[the13thrain]

@comicaljakeandtoxin2 You're absoltely right! It reminds me a bit of a silhouette of gollum...what do you think it is?

[LolGuy619]

@the13thrain at the four turrets or the whole room? the four turrets is a cube passing over ina tube, the room full of them has ratman at a window

[LolGuy619]

@comicaljakeandtoxin2 Which part? the room full of tturrets or the four turrets together?

[641101Mario]

Yo hablo español y que buena traduccion, me gusto, me suscribo.

I speak Spanish and that a good translation, like me, I subscribe.

[Kahleelm]

plus carline is gldos so ehtier there is anther soul in glados cuz carline was updated to glados techanliy she killed her self.

[Kahleelm]

guess what can cave and carline are the paraents of chell glods was made on bring your daughter to work day. what if the end of the game were all the grass is just a nother part of the aputre scince center i mean they would have to be down pretty far in the ground to hold all that tech plus portal 3 could be a action game too cuz. glados could have taken over the world or something cuz. somebody must have notice there whole staff died.also or she could work on geting the other test subjects

[Kahleelm]

[Kahleelm]

[lovermead]

Just because she calls her a child doesn;t mean she can't hold her in esteem ....

[TheNosyGamer]

wow that song is really really amazing. the lyrics in italian are hard to follow listening to the song.

[larunacresent]

I actually think that 'i hold her in esteem' could be the right line, i mean, chell DID make it through all that glados had to throw at her...twice.

[Bronyforever]

When the door opened, i expected FRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH­HHHH!!!!!!!!11111

[Bronyforever]

Too bad that wasn't ratman

[noaccount4]

And here I was crying over such a beautiful ending... OH GAWD I'M CRYING AGAIN £:

[hXc232]

@DeathNinjaX but still, that's not conclusive, even the developers refuse to say anything about the timeline, but it does fit in pretty neatly with the Half Life timeline

[hXc232]

@DeathNinjaX but yes, that's pretty much what the evidence points at

[hXc232]

@DeathNinjaX all of the tables that the potato batteries are on, and all the desks in the offices, and chairs in the lobby towards the end

[hXc232]

@DeathNinjaX yeah but it has "a special ingredient from daddy's work" and the wood hasn't rotted at all

[Tapitlightly1]

@pootsilu Actually the composer who wrote it says otherwise. He says that it is indeed in Italian. Just like all true Opera.

[pootsilu]

YEEEAAAAA I Fucking Knew it says "que Lastima"!!! I fucking Knew it!!! is spanish indeed...

[dementis93]

@pootsilu Yeah, even the words "Cara Mia" are Italian. And "Mia Bambina"...

[hXc232]

@dementis93 it's both, Einstein

[dementis93]

@hXc232 Bambina is Spanish? I thought Bambina was just Italian...

[hXc232]

@dementis93 no, the song has both spanish and italian lines, not entirely sure why but 2 of the lines are in spanish, the rest is italian

[dementis93]

@hXc232 That's what I thought. : / And what I said earlier...

[hXc232]

@dementis93 k i think i misunderstood you, thought you were trying to say it was only in italian to start with, sorry lol

[PancakeOrGTFO]

This is the song to listen on your way to heaven

[Patik1997]

so, caroline (CAROLINE IS NOT GLaDOS!!! Glados is the intelligence [the body], only the dna in glados is caroline[the head]) is chells mother, but who is the father? i think cave is chells father, because in the old enrichment centre you can see and picture of cave and caroline, and GLaDos say, that they look so familiar, and this say not glados this say caroline (wheatley only copyied the dna of caroline in the potato), so i think that caroline and cave are her parents.(Sorry für bad english :)

[DerpBox]

YKNOW SOMTHING. After seeing the translated lyrics, i'm starting to think that GLaDOS/Caroline is Chell's mother... because if you saw the portrait of Caroline at some point in the game, she ressembles Chell ALOT.

[TheKimo303]

I see a PORTAL 3 in the future...

[ausghost1]

@TheKimo303 me too TheKimo303 me too. lol!

[roughdahouse]

@TheKimo303 Valve cant count past 2

[Thuroktheterrokar]

@roughdahouse He/she says that see aa Portal 3 in the future, doesn't mean it's now, they can learn to count to 3 till then :D

[zminecrafterx]

Anyone notice at 0:59, at the right side light pannel, that wierd jumping creature?

[saraggle08]

@zminecrafterx Yes, I noticed it. To me, it looks like one of Wheatley's Frankenturrets hobbling along.

[alabamafanforever]

@zminecrafterx it is one of wheatleys franken turrets

[RavenX91]

@zminecrafterx Yeah, it's a cube turret.

[ShadowParadoxTeam]

@zminecrafterx that is what is known as a Franken-Turret. It's made of a modified Weighted Storage Cube and two Turrets. that is the only kind of stuff Wheatley had access to after he threw Chell and Potato-type GLaDOS (PotatOS) into the pit.

[XxXxCrimsonxXxX]

Nice job with the translation!

Also ASFDFAS I CAN SEE RATMAN FINALLY. Took me forever to find him. Creepyyyyy.

[spartan11720011]

@XxXxCrimsonxXxX an you blame him he has been in the middle of an underground lab controlled by an not so much crazy anymore robot he has been down there for i think about 10 years 

[XxXxCrimsonxXxX]

@spartan11720011 Haha true, true.

[dms110D]

dude, YOU JUST MADE PORTAL 3!

[Kosba2]

Yeah I gotta say its not so much as GLaDOS wanting to get rid of Chell, but more along the lines of her wanting Chell to be free from the torturous testing =) Heck she even mentions that Caroline is still alive in Want You Gone, GLaDOS IS IN DENIAL!

[lansmart]

i kinda figured this song was for Chell since it said for chell around the main lyrics.

[20roxas08]

I SAW Doug Rattmann AT 00:17!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[JadenRockz99]

@20roxas08 Oh shit, I don't even realize that! He was going to go downstair XD

Bur with my eyes, it's really hard to see (Yes, I'm crying)

[MorganCupkakke]

@20roxas08 nope. But he is there somewhere. Look at the background during the opera hes limping towards an open door.

[wkunzelman1]

My eyes got a bit misty during this last scene.

[EmperorofDark]

Its not over til the king turret sings..

[Mrscool1321]

At least king turret will remember you :)

[waterm0use]

am i the only one who cried at this when i finished portal 2?

[spacedog94]

@waterm0use I cried. And my whole family mocked me relentlessly.

[123456789uber]

at the 17second look at the figure running across running behind the turrets its think its rat man?

[mrschnozz]

@123456789uber Omg rat man!!!

i think ur right but if that's the case then he's been alive hundredsof years

[hXc232]

@mrschnozz why hundreds of years? all the hints in the game point at it being set around 20-30 years after the first one, not hundreds of years like people were saying before it was released

[Claradwor]

@123456789uber he is there in the big scene too on the right side in front of the light that is one down from the king turret at 0:57

[smashbro247]

Im gonna guess and say The original Caroline was cave's wife and I'm guessing chells mom because in one level glados the potatoe says " those people in the portrait look so familiar" cave programed Caroline into a computer to help chell but aperature employees may have encrypted her memory BOOM THEORY FINISHeD

[12multiraven]

if my theory is correct maybe Glados is Chell's mom since Caroline is Glados so maybe chell's dad is Cave Johnson maybe anyone want to debate about it with me

[DroppedApple]

0.53 to 1.04, if you look at the strip of white lit panels closest to the back on the right you can see the shadow of Doug Rattman carrying his Companion Cube. It's easier to see if you full screen the video. (:

These lyrics are so touching. Carline deleted? Sorry, GLaDOS, you can't delete yourself. ^^;

[fearme37]

@DroppedApple its not rattman look closer its one of those cubes with the turret bodys fused into them.

[chimpanoo]

I don't think Caroline was deleted, the turrets are part of GLaDOS, and them singing shows this. I think. Speculation.

[9386919]

A great ending to a great game

[TheCodename54]

You know i was thinking this might be some type of hint that this is chells mom

[OPMcClellan]

@setosanpl So Cave Johnson is Chells dad? Chell Johnson lol

[stargate12345678]

@OPMcClellan

Cave Johnson and Caroline are chells parents, to my belief.

And this Opera song proves Caroline still lives in GlaDOS and also gives some sense to her being Chell's Mother.



[OiTabemashou]

@stargate12345678 Sorry, it makes no sense. Chell was likely a child at Bring Your Daughter to Work day, (The overgrown potato battery is signed "by Chell" and that takes place over 50 years after Cave Johnson founded Aperture, which would have made Caroline at least 20 or so, and would make her over 60 years old at the time of Chell's birth. Doesn't fit.

[ron4pin]

@OiTabemashou maybe chell was placed in stasis after she became of age... and later caroline was turned into GladOS
