Portal 2 Hints
How can I get rid of that turret?
1 of 5: First, portal yourself into the scanning room.
2 of 5: There's a portal-friendly wall section just past the room's door.
3 of 5: Thanks to Wheatley breaking the door's window out, you can fire a blue portal through the window and onto the wall.
4 of 5: Put an orange portal on a wall you can reach, then go through it to enter the scanning room.
5 of 5: All you have to do then is pick up the template turret and wait for it to blow up. The explosion won't kill you, so you don't need to hurriedly toss it aside (though you could if you wanted to).
