Does Wheatley actually look for my dead body after an hour?

Question

Near the beginning of the game, right before you find the single-portal gun, you fall down a shaft and into some water. Wheatley asks "Do you see it?" referring to the portal gun. Then he asks "Also, are you alive? That's important. I should've asked that first." (Transcript not exact).

Then he says "I'm going to work on the assumption that you're alive, and wait for you at the end. I'll wait for an hour, and then I'll come looking for your dead body, and if I find it, I'll bury it."

I didn't really have the time, but if you actually stand there for an hour, will he come? I realize this is pushing the bounds of game development, but it is Valve we're talking about here.

Answer

No, unfortunately, he never comes back to look for you. It's not like you die after waiting for an hour anyway (I tried it), and there doesn't appear to be anything in the script to the effect of him traveling back and calling for you, after that line. Still, rather unfortunate.
