Note I didn't accuse Doug of thinking this through.

He needed an assist from an Artifact to get any of his brain in there, and the connection gave out halfway through. The rest of him got packed off to an institution, because no one knew what had happened other than he clearly couldn't take proper care of himself anymore, and there was no way to find out until his stupid AI got activated.

[There was no place in Claudia's heart for malevolent computers before this incident. That left her with less of one.]
