how is the new Charlie different from the old Charlie in procress report 7

Charlie has a strong motivation not only to become smart, but also to discover his past. When Alice Kinnian comes in to visit him, he lists out all of the things he wants to do when he gets smart: to first return to the bakery, talk to them about things, perhaps even be promoted to assistant baker, and then to find his parents (and to find acceptance there with them.)

Charlie also reveals, in small details, how he is a normal 32-year-old man. He notes that the nurse who replaces Hilda, Lucille, is “pritty” (13). His ability to still see women as women even when they currently do not see him as a man is relevant to Charlie’s emotional development later in the story.
