Gordon Freeman
Gordon Freeman is a character from Half-Life who appears in the remix tree. He is a licensed pilot who often has to contend with the Federal Aviation Administration and its representative G-Man.
History
On the bus
Gordon was presented a choice by G-Man, and went through a portal, which G-Man approved of. He then had to fly a bus through a distorted world and touch the correct buttons, which led him to turtlehat's bad cover of Great Days.[1] He later drove the same bus through Ian's home, and it passed right by Avocado Ian, Paula, and Toast,[2] all three of whom had been waiting for it. Ian was upset by this and would later go on a whole rant about it.[3] Gordon had to solve a code, and Kleiner helped tell him when he had the right answers. Finally, he was presented a captcha by Barney.[2]
Vs. the FAA
Gordon spent an entire year training for his private pilot's license at Black Mesa Flight School; when the time came, G-Man (representing the FAA) administered him a written multiple-choice test, and he then had to perform a checkride in the form of flying his plane into certain numbered buttons. After he eventually succeeded, Nadia la Arwall congratulated him and called him a genius.[4]
Relationships
Nadia la Arwall
