Before Season 1
Kathleen Keane had known John Utonium for many years, knowing full well that his real name was not Utonium, but rather Ken. She had a checkered past with him, and it left her feeling that Utonium didn't care for anyone except himself.

Keane stayed out of his experiments involving the girls up until their accidental birth. Keane decided to visit the girls so that they would have another parental figure other than Utonium. She continued to visit them up until the day that they snuck out.

Season 1
Like most other days, Keane was with Utonium talking about the girls. They watched the inauguration on television until realizing that the camera was pointing directly at Blossom. The left for the inauguration, where they found Bubbles and Buttercup talking about the man with the telescope on the roof. The climbed the building to see that Blossom had already broken Mr. Grant's wrist and Tyler Osborn had seen it.

Keane tried to keep Utonium calm after his secret was discovered, as well as trying to get the best for the girls. Utonium refused to give the girls a bed, and Keane insisted that they spend the night at her apartment. That night, the "higher power" sent feral dogs to attack Keane and Utonium to distract the girls so that the final dog could kill Mr. Grant.

Miss Keane spoke with Elliott Meyer in his office, who was interested in using the girls as superheroes. Keane was willing to go for the idea, even watching Utonium to make sure that he took the girls to the park like he had promised, but only on the condition that they be enrolled at Pokey Oaks Kindergarten. The girls assimilated quickly, and Blossom fell in love with Keane's TA, Justin Bradley.

When Blossom left to spy on Justin, Keane ordered her sisters to retrieve her after receiving a call from Osborn that he spotted her flying East. Miss Keane took over story time, when Justin took time off, infuriating Blossom. She told the story of Cinderella, emphasizing archetypes and themes.

A few days later, Sarah Bellum came to Pokey Oaks to take the girls out of school so that they could help search for Tom Seaton. Keane was upset, believing this to be a breach in the agreement she made with Meyer. She swore the situation wasn't over.
