The Section N Robotic Associate Construction Annex is an area located within the Enrichment Center, used for the construction of Aperture's robotic associates, as well as the maintenance of the reassembly machines.

Overview[edit]

The Section N Robotic Associate Construction Annex is briefly visited by ATLAS and P-body before entering Test Chamber 05 during the Peer Review DLC for Portal 2. GLaDOS sends the robots here to reactivate the disassembly machines after their failure. Once the machines are reactivated, the robots enter them to be disassembled and transported to new test chambers. The area mostly consists of office and work spaces all placed around a central inaccessible conference room that contains various whiteboards. The offices themselves contain various heads, as well as a single arm of what appears to be basic models of ATLAS and P-body. There are numerous posters encouraging human-robot cooperation, similar to those found in Test Shaft 09. A complete defective turret can be found in addition to several broken fragments of others. Breaker switches for the re-assembly machines can be found at the far end of the sector.

Behind the scenes[edit]

This area was first introduced in the second "Aperture Investment Opportunity" video, "Bot Trust."

Trivia[edit]

  • In one of the inaccessible offices, a turret can be found sitting on a clerical chair, facing a computer monitor.
  • Text can be found on various of the whiteboards, such as: "Do not trust her: Security through obscurity is our only option", possibly hinting that Aperture employees distrustful of GLaDOS might have been hiding from her. Some of the whiteboards also contains the text: "Who took my lunchbox?", and one even shows the equation of the physical term half-life, referencing the game of the same name. Parts of the whiteboards were also revealed during the PotatoFoolsDay ARG.
