In the beginning of the story, Charlie was really happy that he had many "friends". The only thing he was unhappy with was being mentally retarded. Dr. Strauss [the therapist] and Professor Nemur [the scientist in charge of the experiment] helped Charlie throughout the duration of the experiment. After the surgery, he was a little frustrated because he wasn't becoming smart as fast as he desired. As time passed, his intelligence grew and he was pleased. Charlie then started to show off because he was so impressed and proud of his intelligence.
! SPOILER ALERT !
At the end of the book, the experiment ends up failing, and he becomes mentally retarded again. Although this is upsetting and depressing, he is happy and enjoyed it while it lasted.
