The ablation experiment took a number of years, during which Katherine, Katie, Kate and Kathy were not permitted to leave a smelly London garage which the OU had just managed to pay off the OU's testing facility. Once all ablations had been tested to ensure that they had not suffered brain damage, they were integrated into society and encouraged to find work. Katherine, stripped of all aspects of her personality that made her who she was, became a teacher; Kate went on to become an unspoken human rights activist and foster parent; and Cathy pursued a lifelong ambition to have as much sex as possible in open fields.
