Cuckoo's Nest # 4

In the end of this book, Nurse Ratched has won her victory. It unfortunately happened by the death of McMurphy, but she could now be on top and not have to compete with him for the respect received by the men. After I read part three I was left with the thought of how long it would be until McMurphy cracked. When trying to strangle the nurse, I've realized that his time had come. She was taken to a hospital due to the damage McMurphy had caused her. He also had been taken away for his wrong doing, and returned to the ward not able to speak, or move. The exact night he returned, Bromden suffocates him by putting a pillow over his face and then escapes from the ward. He escaped to be reunited with his family and friends. Nurse Ratched finally is able to take over the men of the ward. The loss of McMurphy was a downfall for some of the men, but regained the respect and control for Ratched.
