To test on the maze
At the beginning of the story, Charlie views Algernon as a rival in the intelligence experiment. However, as their bond grows, Charlie begins to see Algernon as a companion and empathizes with him as they both face similar struggles with their intelligence changes. Charlie develops a deep connection with Algernon and comes to appreciate him as a fellow being deserving of compassion and understanding.

As Algernon and Charlie undergo the same operation and the same testing, Algernon's developments are good predictors of Charlie's near future. When Algernon begins to lose his intelligence, it is a chilling indication that Charlie's own mental gains will be short-lived. Algernon also symbolizes Charlie's status as a subject of the scientists: locked in a cage and forced to run through mazes at the scientists' whim, Algernon is allowed no dignity and no individuality. Charlie's freeing of Algernon from his cage and simultaneous decision to abandon the laboratory makes Algernon's physical liberation a symbol of, and a precursor to, his own emotional independence.
In "Flowers for Algernon," Charlie Gordon dreams of Algernon the mouse and their race through a maze. These dreams symbolize Charlie's desire for intelligence and his struggle to understand the world around him. As his intelligence grows, Charlie's dreams become more vivid and complex, reflecting his inner turmoil and journey of self-discovery.
