One day, [[G La DOS]] discovers that she doesn't understand humans outside of what they do in test chambers, and not understanding all the potential variables is the first step on the road to bad science. So she decides to place an AI into one of the frozen human bodies she has and send it out to study humans in their "natural habitat". Unfortunately the only AI that's suitable for transfer is... [[The Ditz|Wheatley]]. Armed with a computer chip that allows her to talk to and see everything Wheatley does, [[G La DOS]] sends him out into the surface.
