You're watching her struggle with complex and conflicting emotions towards someone who's become one of the most important people in her entire existence, even as she desperately pushes you away and denies that "She needs anyone".

* Finding out that [[spoiler: Chell gets dragged back into the lab again]] was depressing enough, but hearing that in Portal 2 she wakes up ''centuries in the future'', Jesus, there is literally nothing left for her outside. The world outside the lab is a completely different place by now, and she can't even have the TragicDream of going back to a normal life anymore. She doesn't have anything worth fighting for anymore besides her own life.
