When it harvested [[Leela]] and [[Jenny (The Crowmarsh Experiment)|Jenny]], it placed them in a scenario where they were scientists in [[1978]] [[London]] working on something called the Crowmarsh Experiment. In this experiment, Sisyphus was the name of a drug used to induce dreams so vivid that the subjects' minds create a whole new identity for themselves based around this dream. It is this framing that is used to try and convince both Leela and Jenny that their old lives were a fiction and that Sisyphus's mainframe is the real world. The Doctor is able to tap into the mainframe and help both Leela and Jenny escape by instructing them on how to destroy the Crowmarsh installation. Despite Sisyphus's attempts to thwart them, Leela is successful in setting fire to the building's gas mains, forcing her to wake up, but not before Jenny's mind is harvested. Before Jenny's mind is completely erased, however, she leaves a message to override the distress signal at the Doctor's behest, warning other travellers to stay way from Sisyphus' homeworld.
