Cottage K is more like a prison than just a place for someone with limited intelligence as Charlie will be. Cottage K is a high security cottage where people who have limited intelligence and emotional disturbance are caged and may not leave. It is a highly restrictive environment and there is the suggestion that because Algernon is becoming mean, Charlie may become mean also.
