but I ain't gonna race you.

'Cause I don't like you. You're not my friend!

Charly Gordon.

Do you have a girl in your room?

No, it's a him!

Charly Gordon.

It's a mouse.

Young man, there are no mice in this house.

There's one in my room.

They brought him over in a cage.

But I ain't gonna race him.

Cage. Charly.

I've been meaning to talk to you.

Could you step in here, please?

Monty. That nice Charly Gordon

is coming to visit.

You say, a cage. A pet mouse?

Yeah, but I ain't gonna race him.

Come in here for a minute.

Sit down, Charly.

Don't sit on Monty.

Sit down, Charly.

- Charly.

- Yeah.

Having a pet is a gift from God.

- Isn't that right, Monty?

- I don't know, Miss Apple.

Don't argue with me, young man.

I'm telling you.

This little mouse is a blessing in disguise.

First of all, a pet keeps you company.

They don't talk back.

They're loyal and loving.

They are truly man's best friend.

A little animal is one of God's creatures.

They live only to comfort you.

Now, Charly, you go right back up there,

and you make up with him.

Tell him you'll feed him...

clean his cage and give him water.

That's all he wants. That, and your love.

And in return,

he'll give you many happy hours.

Monty, why don't we give Charly...

one of your bones,

to give to the little mouse?

Would you mind?

I don't know if mice

are carnivorous or vegetarious.

Anyway, Charly, here you are.

- What are you going to call him?

- They call him Algernon.

You and Algernon are welcome down here

at any time.

Thank you, Miss Apple.

Algernon.

What do you think of that, Montgomery?

Hi, Alg.

Wanna race?

You ready, pal?

Go.

I beat you.

I beat him!

I beat him!

Professor, Dr. Straus, Miss Kinnian!

I beat him!

Charly!

Miss Kinnian, I beat him.

I was in the room... They put...

Somebody... A mouse...

I got the wrapper, and I spelt "school."

I put him, and I beat him.

I creamed him!

Miss Kinnian, what happens now?

Punctuate it.

Go ahead, punctuate it.

Now, I got something all made up for you

to punctuate.

Punctuate that.

That does not make sense.

"That, that is...

"is.

"That, that is not...

"is not."

"Is that it?"

"It is."

Student surpasses the teacher.

- Mrs. Kinnian.

- Yes.

Where's Mr. Kinnian?

He died.

Are you in love with Frank?

Tomorrow's studies.

Basic chemistry.

- Good night, Charly.

- Good night, Miss Kinnian.
