Abstract: The brainwashing only works on four out of five women. The others have to stay at the Bimbo Asylum.

"Come-on. Undo my straight jacket," said Abigail, surprised that Brooklyn, Bronxie and even Madison would be so afraid to undo the knots tied in back. After all the laundry area had no guards and no cameras. "Hello, I can't use the tablet unless you free my hands."
"You don't understand, it's against the rules," said Bronxie.
"You just stole a computer," said Abigail.
"Yeah," said Brooklyn, "but some bimbo rules are harder to overcome."
"Look," said Madison, "I'll do it, but I can only do it if I feel sexual while doing it. So I'll do it, if we do it, you know later, so you need to agree to do it or be a little frisky, which I know you really aren't into..."
"Here," said Brooklyn, starting to untie the straps. "If it will make Maddie shut the fuck up."
"Shoot, I would have done it," pouted Madison.
Once free, Abigail began typing on the tablet's glass surface. "Their security is terrible." She madly typed some more. She didn't know how much time she had, not because of the guards, but due to her bimbo brainwashing waiting to take control.
The other bimbos had no idea what flashed by on the screen and soon gave up watching.
Madison, hating the conversational silence, asked, "So if you can get a computer, what other things can you get? Because you're gonna' want the codes for next month's round of patients too and so on and so on and..."
"Shut-up," said Bronxie.
"No wait, we got some good stuff," said Brooklyn. "We carve and assemble some things all the time. You know."
"You mean like shivs, knives, weapons?" said Madison and before she could elaborate she was cut-off as Brooklyn snapped her fingers and a lesbian hoodlum disappeared into the clouds of steam to retrieve some samples.
Even Abigail stopped for a moment to see.
A laundry worker, in the standard white panties, bra, stockings and heels approached with a box. She opened it. Inside were several things made out of common household items: tooth brushes taped together with duck-tape, pens bent and twisted, spoons broken and molded. One item even had a motor from a kitchen mixer.
"Ooo," said Madison.
"What's in there?" asked Abigail.
Madison pulled one of the items out. "Dildos. They're all dildos. One has a motor."
"That's it!" said Abigail. "That's your illegal stash? That's what you spend your time making?"
"Hey, this is good stuff," defended Brooklyn.
As Abigail looked over the lingerie clad women, she felt a dread that a woman desperate to escape would feel, in fact she was gratified that she felt it so authentically. It pushed the bimbo out of her long enough to really worry about becoming one of these demented women. Without escape, her priorities would shift and she too would begin trading in something stupid and not even realize it. She got back to hacking the security system as she fought her bimbo thoughts trying to remember what she needed to do.
An hour later, the two gang leaders were sitting in their black corsets smoking cigarettes. Madison was playing jacks by herself, duct tape applied to her mouth.
"I got it," said Abigail. "You ready to write down some bimbo codes."
"Sure," said Brooklyn, who started unlacing Bronxie's corset.
The girls all gathered on the floor around Abigail.
With Bronxie bare chested and standing on her knees, Brooklyn poised a Bic pen just under the breasts. "Ready."
Abigail rambled off strange phrases like "chickens run backwards" and "please, doodle dandy." Each matched with a new patient-name. The Asylum admitted twelve new patients that month alone, and knowing the laundry girls, the new patients would soon be doing things they wouldn't remember.
As Bronxie's corset cinched into place covering the codes, Abigail tightened Madison's straightjacket and then stuffed the tablet under the arms against Abie's ribcage. Even with the edge jamming up against her bra's underwires, the short jacket, that left too much midriff showing, couldn't quite hide the entire tablet; but unless someone looked under her folded arms, it would hopefully pass unnoticed.
A computer was everything to a hacker, so a tablet would be something to hold close and stash in a good hiding place -- it was important to remember that. She moved her shoulders around. Yes, despite her bound arms, she felt confident that she'd be able to drop it loose and hide it in her bed before the attendant showed that night to undo her jacket.
The women gabbed about future possibilities and when the two gang leaders left, Madison crawled over like a sexy kitten and nudged her head against Abigail's bound shoulders. Abigail responded in kind by using her teeth to pull the gagging duct tape off, revealing the lush, and unfortunately talkative lips. Everyone had forgotten the tape before strapping Abie back in. Intentional neglect was a strong possibility here.
"Did you find what you were looking for?" asked the bimbo. "I mean you were working and typing and thinking..." She paused and changed the theme, "... and licking and tapping and fingering. Oooo, guess what I have in mind."
Abigail stood. "They want to use my last project, but need the final program to deactivate it once its deployed, otherwise its worthless to them."
"Huh?"
"They have something I did, but need the rest."
"Oh, those fuckers. By the way, I'm trying to be supportive in saying something bad about the people who seem to have..."
The rambling continued as they walked up the sloping cement hallway from the underground machine room. Once they reached the courtyard sunlight, Madison stopped talking and adopted her clueless happy smile. The site of woman cavorting around in their lacy white lingerie had pulled the bimbo back into a world of love and lust.
"Did I mention my helicopter plan?" said Madison, losing to her bimbo mind.
It was clear the common grounds of the courtyard helped the process. Even Abigail's mind rode the wave with her friend, letting go of all worries and desperations. Anger and resentment became impossible. Thoughts of escape evaporated. So many women bounced and played and kissed and held and groped and licked and some even beckoned for the two wallflowers to join.
"I can't fight it," said Abigail, tears filling her eyes. "I'm supposed to be angry that an employer did this to me, but I'm not." Maybe her disappointment in herself would bridge over to at least looking like she had been betrayed. Maybe method acting would help, using one bad thought to fake another. It didn't work.
"Talk to me sweetie," said Madison, snapping back to reality for a moment, "what are you thinking?"
Abigail gulped as her friend kindly wiped the tears away.
"I have to focus," sobbed Abie. "I think my bimbo side is getting in the way of what I have to do. There are some things I need to say, but my mind wanders."
"It's hard isn't it?" empathized Madison, staying so verbally concise.
