Explanation:

Correct Option: C

Option A and B are erroneous because ‘can return’ and ‘returned’ are verb phrases which aren’t parallel with the gerund phrase ‘becoming bizarre’. Options A and B hence get eliminated.

Option D, though, takes care of the parallel structure yet deviates the meaning of the sentence.

Option C is the perfect choice among the given ones and must replace the bold part to make it a grammatically correct sentence.

Option C is hence the correct answer.
