*SPOILER ALERT* Ok. So we all know that at the end of the game, Chell is lifted out of the Aperture Science facility and out into an open field. Great. Happy ending. Rainbows and butterflies. BUT. I thought to myself "Wait a minute. People often see that when they are fantasizing about something they really want." It was pretty clear to me that Chell wanted to get out of Aperture Science. During your battle with Wheatley, he booby-traps the stalemate button to blow you up. It's a miracle that you're still alive. But what if you were instead knocked unconscious, and the rest that followed was a situation that was concocted by your damaged mind? My theory is that Wheatley started pressing random buttons out of panic, and that he stopped the explosions and fires, and then kept you prisoner in something similar to the long-term relaxation centers? That's my theory, anyway. Discuss.
