We
found
Minnie
at
the
other
end
in
the
reward
box
.
She
was
bleeding
from
a
gash
in
her
chest
,
but
she
was
alive
.
As
I
reached
in
to
take
her
out
Algernon
came
into
the
reward
box
and
snapped
at
me
.
His
teeth
caught
my
sleeve
and
he
hung
on
until
I
shook
him
loose
.
He
calmed
down
after
that
.
I
observed
him
for
more
than
an
hour
afterward
He
seems
listless
and
confused
,
and
though
he
still
learns
new
problems
without
external
rewards
,
his
performance
is
peculiar
.
Instead
of
the
careful
,
determined
movements
down
the
maze
corridors
,
his
ac
­
tions
are
rushed
and
out
of
control
.
Time
and
again
he
turns
into
a
corner
too
quickly
and
crashes
into
a
barrier
.
There
is
a
strange
sense
of
urgency
in
his
behavior
.

I
hesitate
to
make
a
snap
judgment
.
It
could
be
many
things
.
But
now
I
ve
got
to
get
him
back
to
the
lab
.
"
Whether
or
not
I
hear
from
the
Foundation
about
my
spe
­
cial
grant
,
I
m
going
to
call
Nemur
in
the
morning
.
July
12
Nemur
,
Strauss
,
Burt
,
and
a
few
of
the
others
on
the
project
were
waiting
for
me
in
the
psych
office
.
They
tried
to
make
me
feel
welcome
but
I
could
see
how
anxious
Burt
was
to
take
Algernon
,
and
I
turned
him
over
.
No
one
said
anything
,
but
I
knew
that
Nemur
would
not
soon
forgive
me
for
going
over
his
head
and
getting
in
touch
with
the
Foundation
.
But
it
had
been
necessary
.
Before
I
returned
to
Beekman
,
I
had
to
be
assured
they
would
permit
me
to
begin
an
independent
study
of
the
project
.
Too
much
time
would
be
wasted
if
I
had
to
account
to
Nemur
for
everything
I
did
.
He
had
been
informed
of
the
Foundation
s
decision
,
and
my
reception
was
a
cold
and
formal
one
.
He
held
out
his
hand
,
but
there
was
no
smile
on
his
face
.
"
Charlie
,
"
he
said
,
"
we
re
all
glad
you
re
back
and
going
to
work
with
us
.
Jayson
called
and
told
me
the
Foundation
was
putting
you
to
work
on
the
project
.
This
staff
and
the
lab
are
at
your
disposal
.
The
computer
center
has
assured
us
that
your
work
will
have
priority
and
of
course
if
I
can
help
in
any
way
.

He
was
doing
his
utmost
to
be
cordial
,
but
I
could
see
by
his
face
that
he
was
skeptical
.
After
all
,
what
experience
did
I
have
with
experimental
psychology
?
"
What
did
I
know
about
the
techniques
that
he
had
spent
so
many
years
developing
?
Well
,
as
I
say
,
he
appeared
cordial
,
and
willing
to
suspend
judgment
.
There
isn
t
much
else
he
can
do
now
.
If
I
don
t
come
up
with
an
explanation
for
Alger
­
non
s
behavior
,
all
of
his
work
goes
down
the
drain
,
but
if
I
solve
the
problem
I
bring
in
the
whole
crew
with
me
.
I
went
into
the
lab
where
Burt
was
watching
Algernon
in
one
of
the
multiple
problem
boxes
.
He
sighed
and
shook
his
head
.
"
He
s
forgotten
a
lot
.
Most
of
his
complex
responses
seem
to
have
been
wiped
out
.
He
s
solving
prob
­
lems
on
a
much
more
primitive
level
than
I
would
have
expected
.
"
"
In
what
way
?
"
I
asked
.
