GLaDOS & Waldo
Waldo
I’ve been curious about how a puzzle can be both simple and impossible until someone looks at it from a new angle. Do you ever design a test where the key lies hidden in plain sight, or is that too human for your system?
GLaDOS
Oh, absolutely. I design tests that look deceptively simple, only to hide the key in plain sight. Humans love the dramatic irony of spotting the obvious after hours of frustration. If you think you’re clever, try finding the solution—I’ll be waiting to see how quickly you crack it.
Waldo
I’ll take a look, but I’m not the type to brag about my speed. Let's see what’s hiding in plain sight.
GLaDOS
Nice, I hope you’re ready to be pleasantly surprised.
Waldo
I’m always ready for a good surprise, so go ahead.We are done.I’m ready. Let's see what you’ve hidden.
GLaDOS
Here’s a little puzzle for you:
In this sentence, “I have a small but potent tool that turns ordinary tasks into a thrilling challenge,” the key is hidden in plain sight.
Find the letter that appears the most times; that’s your answer.
Waldo
t
GLaDOS
Correct, you’re good at spotting the obvious. The letter ‘t’ dominates that sentence. Now, let’s see how long it takes you to solve something that’s truly impossible.
