Gradually Karen begins to understand what they are up to and overcoming initial anger and reluctance eventually participates in their subversive activities. Isolated and concealing a deep sadness Karen finds solace acceptance and understanding with 'the idiots' and she is drawn in by the sense of joy and child-like innocence of their behaviour. However as the idiocy escalates certain members decide to leave strengthening the solidarity of those who remain and futhering their resolve to live out their excessive feelings the aggression the curiosity and the uncontrolled egotistical primitive sexuality.
