Well, looks like we've hit a dead end. The portal puzzle was a clever idea for an intelligence test—Blish really knows what he's doing with the portal tech. Unfortunately, it looks like the specimens aren't showing any special intellectual capacity. I wasn't the only one expecting positive results due to the Balthazar energy absorbed by Kralkatorrik.
A note: I'm starting to worry about housing the Branded specimens here. It's not just that they're extremely aggressive. I think there's strategy involved in their behavior. The other day, it really seemed like they were trying to trick me into leaving my notes in their lockup—notes that include the codes to the locks. Am I being paranoid?
A thought: maybe we should be testing their strategic/tactical capacities rather than their intellect?
