Portal 2 Hints
How can I get the cube to the button?
1 of 5: While carrying the cube, drop from the hanging platform to the one that's directly below it.
2 of 5: Drop the cube, then put an orange portal on either of the platform's portal-friendly wall sections.
3 of 5: Look a ways to the right of the exit elevator's platform to see the platform that the big red button is on. (You probably can't see the button, but it's there.)
4 of 5: Fire a blue portal onto that platform's back wall section -- the one that's to the right of the blue dots.
5 of 5: Pick up the cube and go through the orange portal, then drop the cube on the big red button.
