One Flew Over the Cuckoo's nest: Reading Response 4

99-110

The amount of control and power that the aides and nurses and everyone running the hospital has is absurd. When McMurphy asks one of the aides for toothpaste, because he is awake before everyone else was, the aide answers to him that the cabinet doesn’t open until a certain time. McMurphy, being the smarty pants guy he is, then just takes some of the cleaner the aide is using to wash the walls with. It is humorous that instead of waiting for a new replacement uniform with his towel on, he drops it in front of the Nurse.
