If she just lost control of the fox, then what was the point to that scene? They could have done the whole arc with one less slow motion walk from the doctors. She was also the only character (Noshiko doesn't count because she's "technically" still a Kitsune. We don't know what that means, but they probably couldn't use her) that had a spirit bound to her.

The whole point of their experiments was to revive Sebastien. In order to revive him, they needed to bind the ghost of Sebastien to a host. Now, and this is speculation, whatever they did to Kira was most likely done in an attempt to figure out how a spirit can be bound to a host body. Without that scene, we'd be wondering how the hell they were able to bind a ghost to a person. With that scene of them doing something to Kira, we can at least assume they did something similar to get Sebastien's spirit into Mason.
