1953年4月，緩刑期結束了。在最後的3個月，他們在圖靈的大腿裏，植入了一個激素植入體，取代了口服藥物。

On 10 May Alan sent a letter to Maria Greenbaum, describing a complete solution to a solitaire puzzle, and ending:
5月10日，圖靈給瑪利亞寫信，給她講了一個撲克迷題的完整解法，並在結尾寫道：

祝你們在瑞士度假愉快。
I shall not be very far away at Club Mediterranee, Ipsos-Corfu, Greece. Yours, Alan Turing.
如果沒有意外，我將會去希臘科孚島的地中海俱樂部。你的朋友，圖靈。
