Charly Page #4

Juke likes a nice, sweet tone of voice.

Okay, Juke.

You're a nice juke and you got nice lights,

and you're real nice.

- Come on back here, champ.

- We knew you could do it.

- Charly, you hear it's liable to snow tonight?

- I don't know. I didn't hear that, Gimp.

That's what they say. I'll tell you what.

How about stopping off at the corner of

Manning and Standish on your way home?

- Okay, what do I do there?

- I'll tell you, Charly.

A lot of people don't know this.

But I'm gonna let you in on it.

That's where the snow always starts. Yeah.

Right there on the corner

where Manning runs into Standish.

Now you wait there for a while...

and when that first flake comes down,

you give us a call.

That way we get to get home in time

before it really starts coming down.

- Okay, Charly?

- Yeah.

Who do I call?

Paddy, give Charles one of your cards.

- Better get started, Charly.

- Yeah.

None of that now.

I guess I can afford to buy a beer

for good old Charly.

All right.

Go get them, tiger, go get them.

So long, pal. See you later.

Well, here's to a blizzard.

Buddy, what you doing?

What you doing?

Waiting for it to snow.

Let's go.

Stupid.

The operation.

- The operation?

- Yes.

- I made it?

- Yes.

I made it!

- Miss Kinnian?

- Yes.

I don't feel no smarter.

Ready? Start.

Again, Charly.

Again. Try.

Please.

How did the lessons go tonight?

- Just one more...

- I keep doing it again and...

But try it, Charly.

Post-surgical recovery is complete.

These five mice, look at their mental curve.

He's shown no comparable

intellectual progress.

No.

Charly, I know that you can do it.

I know that I can't do it, Doctor.

Yesterday, and the day before,

you keep saying I can do it...

and Miss Kinnian says I can do it,

everybody says I can do it...

but I know I can't do it.

- But we know you can do it.

- I know I can't do it.

Charly, try. It makes a lovely, nice figure.

I can't do it, Dr. Straus,

you know I can't do it.

I know I can't do it, and I don't want to do it.

- I can't learn nothing.

- Charly!

- Did that operation make me dumber?

- Nothing of the sort.

I can't do any of the puzzles,

and I'll tell you something else.

I ain't racing that Algernon no more.

I'm sick of being beaten by a mouse...

- And people laughing at me.

- Nobody is laughing at you.

I don't care! I'm going out of here, now!

"My name is Dick. I live in a house.

"I have a sister named Jane

and a dog named Spot."

My name is Charly Gordon,

and I live in a room...

and I got no sister, no dog, and I am stupid!

And what are you doing here?

I ain't gonna race you.

I know why they brought you over here,
