After the patients on the ward have their fun, Chief Bromden starts to think that the black boys and Nurse Ratched know about his faking of his "illness". During a meeting with the Board of Directors, Chief Bromden (They make him clean up the "meeting room" when they have their insufficient, pathetic talks that make them feel like their special) overhears the conversation, the Board Members (excuse my language...) bitch and moan about what to make of McMurphy and what on earth are they going to do with this... this... man... The whole time, Nurse Ratched doesn't speak a word, while the Doctor keeps looking to her, nagging her, wanting her opinion with a "How does that sound, Nurse Ratched" or "We better not do that Nurse Ratched..." She finally says that they won't let McMurphy off the ward, they won't send him back to the pea farms, or take him to Disturbed... What they will do instead is let McMurphy slip up, humiliating himself in front of the patients so that the patients see what kind of a man he really is and therefore, they will lose respect for him... and McMurphy will be submissive to Nurse Ratched's power. As the days go by, McMurphy figures out that the only way that the patients get to leave the asylum is if they are deemed "cured" by the establishment. And, because McMurphy has been acting out... he can't leave the place without submitting to her. Unfortunately, he does and the patients who once admired McMurphy as their saviour are confused and don't want to follow him anymore. None of the patients respected McMurphy than Cheswick... and when McMurphy didn't stand up against Nurse Ratched with Cheswick... Cheswick committed suicide in the swimming pool. The death of Cheswick made McMurphy realize the affect he had on the patients because they looked up to him and wanted to follow his example. McMurphy witnesses the horrors of shock therapy and fears for his own life. Then, one day, McMurphy convinces the patients to take a bus to the docks and get a boat for a day so that they can know what it's like to be a real human being again. McMurphy brings along Candy, a prostitute from Portland, and sets her up with Billy Bibbit. During the trip, the patients start to enjoy themselves and catch their own fish without McMurphy's help. They return and McMurphy, defending George Sorenson one of the patients, starts a fist fight with one of the black aides. During the rumbustious fight, Chief Bromden joins in and both Chief Bromden and McMurphy are sent to the Disturbed ward. McMurphy receives shock therapy and returns to the ward acting like it was nothing and the patients love him for it...

However, the electrical shock therapy has made McMurphy weak and the patients tell McMurphy that he must escape. But McMurphy promised Billy Bibbit a date with Candy for that night. So, McMurphy bribes Mr. Turkle (the black night aide) to let Candy and Sandy (a friend of Candy's) in the ward. They throw a party, smoke marijuana, get drunk, and (because Billy is inexperienced with girls) McMurphy asks Candy if she could have sex with Billy. Harding tries to get McMurphy to escape with Candy and Sandy to Mexico, but McMurphy is too wasted and falls asleep. The next morning, Nurse Ratched and the black aides discover the mess they have left and they are P-OED.... Then, Nurse Ratched find Billy in bed with Candy and threatens to call his mother. Not wanting to have Nurse Ratched call his mother... Billy kills himself. Furious at Nurse Ratched for what she did to Billy, McMurphy strangles her and almost kills her. He is knocked out by one of the black aides and is sent to be lobotomized. After that violent event, Nurse Ratched loosens up and has lost most of her tyrannical power. Things start to change on the ward. Patients start to transfer to wards or they leave the asylum or they just stay. To ease McMurphy's pain, Chief Bromden suffocates him, lifts up the control panel, throws it towards the window, and escapes from the hospital....

I'll tell you honestly I LOVED THIS BOOK! Not because I've watched the movie a bajillion times, but because this book is unique and totally ahead of it's time. One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest is well written, has a great story, and it's different. It's a book that makes you want to stand up against the Man... yes... the Man. It's also a book that make you think if your crazy or not and if the average guy on the street is a manic and you don't know about it and it makes you question your sanity. I mean, what is crazy and what isn't crazy. Just because you refuse to take their pills than you are sick in the head or that if you are just a little bit different than everybody, than you're abnormal?!! I think that's pretty (excuse my FRENCH) F'd-up!!! I mean, whats wrong with a guy like McMurphy? So he's trouble... so he starts fights, so he gambles, so he defies authority, so he does what people consider "bad"... But he is honest with himself, he does what he wants and doesn't give a (excuse my language again) da**n or two sh**ts or a rat's a** about what anybody, anywhere in the world thinks of him. He has nothing to hide and isn't ashamed of anything he has done. So he made some mistakes... so what? So hes like a little kid, but he knows how to have a good time. Mcmurphy doesn't judge anyone and takes them as they are, he can see through you like you were cellophane. McMurphy lives everyday as if it were his last and he does the things that others would dream of doing. I mean, come on... McMurphy is a bada**. You either hate him with a passion or love him to death. He is a messiah, a smart a**, and cool cat all rolled up into one. But being yourself is the hardest thing to do... and McMurphy is just being himself. I love stories like this... they make you think and they are deep. These stories give you several emotions that are quite hard to explain. Some people cannot handle the intensity of movies/stories of this genre, but I can. Anywhy, I'll say it again... this book is five-stars, so freaking good!!! I suggest it to anyone, actually everyone in the entire universe, to read this book... it'll show you how f-ed up everything is....
