one of my favorite parts in Portal is when you meet Glados for the first time and she immediately starts lecturing about how she's disappointed in you after all you put her through she's going to have a laugh about all your mistakes later after she's killed you and blah blah, you've heard all of it before so you're kind of tuning it out, until a core drops from her chassis and she's like "ignore that, I don't even know what that is. anyway moving on," but you're just kind of fooling around picking it up and seeing where it'll fit while she talks at you, so you decide to drop it into a big red hole in the ground
and she immediately goes "what the fuck, did you just stuff that Aperture Science Thing-We-Don't-Know-What-It-Does into an Aperture Science Emergency Intelligence Incinerator? that has got to be the dumbest thing that—"
then her audio fluctuates for a second and her voice turns all smooth and less computerized and she purrs into the speakers "good news. I figured out what that thing you just incinerated did. it was a morality core they installed after I flooded the Enrichment Center with a deadly neurotoxin... to make me stop flooding the Enrichment Center with a deadly neurotoxin."
and you're kind of nervous-laughing because this sounds exactly like all the bullshit she's given before about bribing you with cake or telling you that you aren't going the right way to try to scare you into doing what she wants
but then she says "so get comfortable while I warm up the neurotoxin emitters" and then a timer starts counting down on all the screens while gas fills up the room and you're like Oh Shit. She Wasn't Kidding About This One
