Okay...take a look at this shot, when Breen is running from Freeman:

He says this:
"It's me you should be concerned about!
I can still deliver her but not without your help!
The portal destination is 'untenable' -- surely you could resey the relay elsewhere--
--There's no way I could survive in that environment!
A host body? You must be joking! I can't possibly...
Oh alright dammit!
If that's what it takes'
After a bit of 'noclip' I found a room off to the side that can ONLY be accessed by noclip and is a bit hidden... I'm sure you can find it.
Inside is something that looks like a larva and is a bit like what you encounter at the end of HL1, except much, much smaller. It also looks like what Breen was talking to. There are various screens around it and it is bound by metal cords and communications equipment:

This brings about an interesting theory:
Breen seems to be arguing with this thing, showing that he's not entirely in control. Yet whatever this is, it is definitely under Combine control.
The Gman also seems to have run of the place -- how else does he get around so quickly?
The Gman also tells Gordon that freeman's performed his job well -- was the 'job' to get rid of Breen? This would make sense: Breen seemed to be going out on a limb...acting like a king.
Also, the Gman obviously programmed Dog to help Freeman get into the Citadel-- Dog flew away on the dropship, then he magically reappeared to let Gordon into the Citadel.
I have tried to put 2 and 2 together...here's what I've come up with:
The Gman seems to be pretty close to the Combine--close as in 'friends'. Breen seems to be a bit of a miscreant. The Gman sent Freeman to take out Breen and his 'kingdom'. Breen seems like a bit of a rowdy 'pawn' -- in a multiple-universe empire (Breen said that's what it was), a single city on a single planet is pretty puny. So either there's some sort of power struggle within the Combine and Breen was caught up int it, or maybe the Combine just got fed up with him --- or something else entirely.
What do you think?
Do your thing -- use this new info to come up with whole new ideas...or just elaborate on this one. A couple thousand minds are better than One!
