Swapping out geometry with an alembic animation for the animation to have effects

Hello, I have done another disintegration effect on a sphere, that I need for the end of my animation for university. I have alembic cached out a girl from Maya. It only has subtle animation on it. The girl geometry needs to be swapped with the sphere so the effect is applied.

I have attached a file with the cache's in it but without my attempt at swapping the geometry as it crashes Houdini. The animation starts at frame 2670 

Thank you! :)

You can install a Switch node inside of OBJECT_A. Use an Object Merge to bring the Alembic mesh cache and follow it up with a Subdivide, for more resolution, and a Transform to re-align the merged mesh with the current sphere's location.
