One Flew Over The Cuckoos Nest by Ken Kesey Part 2 chapter 6, narrated by Isaac BirchallThe men are leaded over to building 1 where they are going to all be x-rayed. Across from the men is the large metal riveted door where EST is performed. There is screaming coming from the inside, and Chief Bromden is gripping onto the bench harder than ever. McMurphy pipes up and asks Harding what is happening in that room, Harding tells him that they are being given a trip to the moon that is paid for with Brain Cells instead of Money. Harding tells McMurphy the history of EST and tells him that it isn’t just used to scare and hurt patients, it is a real form of therapy that has been used to cure plenty of patients over the years. McMurphy isn’t sure about this and likens it to the death penalty, and Harding half agrees with him, saying that EST changes you; no one is ever the same after EST, and no one ever wants another one. McMurphy then states that he doesn’t really understand what is going on in the ward. He then asks Harding about Lobotomies, and Harding informs him that though the nurse legally cannot decide what happens to patients, she is the one who has the final say on all punishments. McMurphy then goes to say that he thinks that just getting rid of the nurse probably wouldn’t change too much but he can’t fully explain it. Chief wants to go and tell McMurphy that he is onto it, that he has understood what Chief put together long ago, but he cannot speak, not when everyone thinks him to be deaf and dumb. After some more back and forth between the guys, McMurphy finally tells the guys that he is fed up with them pushing him to bug the nurse, and Harding’s only excuse is that he forgot that McMurphy was committed. McMurphy since decided that he is just going to play it safe to guarantee that he gets released in a timely manner. Harding agrees with McMurphy, but also tells him that McMurphy is risking far more than the other patients, he tells him that McMurphy is one of the very few patients that is committed; the rest are voluntary patients. This makes McMurphy lose his head!
