It is worse to have intelligence than use it because if you never had it, you would only know one way of living but then if you had it and lost it you would know what it was like and then never see it again. It is very cruel.

- The progress reports shows the true effect the surgery has on Charlie and his personality change. We learn from the way he writes and his reaction to events in the story.
- Ms. Kinnian - thought he determined and hardworking,  to proud
- The Doctors - thought Charlie was foolish, to felt guilty
- Charlie's Co Workers - made fun of him and did not like him, to felt bad for him and protected him
- The central conflict is that the surgery may or may not work. It is solved when the surgery fails and Charlie loses his intelligence.
-  The flowers symbolize the part of Charlie that is gone, just like how Algernon is gone.
-  If you had something and you lost it, you will want it back. When Charlie lost his intelligence, he kept the negative feelings he gained from being more intelligent.
- At the end of the story, Charlie said he was grateful for experiencing intelligence
