"Oh, you're catching on quick!" Porky said happily, "Alright. Now on to the next lesson. Well, I shouldn't say 'lesson,' because I probably won't be able to teach it to you if you don't know it...it's more of a test, really...but that's not the point!"

This would have arguably the biggest impact on his new roommate's stay here at the institute. Whether or not he could defend himself was inconsequential. Porky was sure that plenty of people would be willing to help a defenseless person here. However, if this ex-tiger couldn't read, which he probably couldn't, then his stay at the institute would be a miserable one indeed. The bulletin board was, after all, one of the most useful resources here.

Porky scanned his desk for the journal that all patients had. When he had found it, he took a pen out from his pocket and wrote "Can you read this?" on one of the pages in big block letters.

"Alright," Porky said as he held up the journal so his new roommate could see what he had written, "Do you understand what this means?"
