Hi.
-Mr. McMurphy's here. RATCHED: All right.
Thank you.
-All right, I'm ready. -Okay. One pair of socks.
T-shirt.
Hi.
Goddamn, boy, you're about as big as a mountain.
Look like you might have played some football.
What's your name?
He-- He can't hear you. He's de-- Deaf and dumb Indian.
Is that so?
Come on, Bibbit.
McMURPHY: Can't even make a sound, huh?
How.
[INMATES SPEAKING INDISTINCTLY]
[WHOOPlNG]
HARDlNG: Come on, Billy.
Club lead. Jack of clubs.
Ha, ha. Uh-oh.
McMURPHY: What's your name, son? -Bill-- Billy Bibbit.
Glad to know you, Bill. McMurphy's mine.
Ha-ha-ha. That's old Charlie Cheswick's cards.
-Ha-ha. -That's his ace of spades.
Your turn, Bill.
Big 1 0.
-Put one of them on it, will you? -Wait a minute.
Oh, l can win that one.
-l win. -Oh, you overtrumped?
-Sure. -Pinochle, huh, Bill?
-You're avoiding spades? -Mm-hm.
-Oh, okay. You sure you're avoiding spades? -What's the bid?
-l know how to play the game. -Five-- Five-fifty.
Oh, uh, you like to look at other people's cards, do you?
-Yes. -Ever seen this one?
-Come on, Martini. -Martini.
Martini, will you--? Will you play a club?
Whose turn is it now?
Well, let's see, he trumped. Where you going?
-Aren't you gonna play? -What's the matter with him?
-Aren't you gonna play, Martini? HARDlNG: What's--?
-Martini? l wanna play. -You took a trump. You got-- lt's your lead.
Billy? Billy, I wanna win some.... l....
Get a grip on yourself, will you?
[KNOCKlNG ON DOOR]
Yes?
-Mr. McMurphy's here, doc. -Good, have him come in.
Thank you.
McMurphy, l'm Dr. Spivey.
Dr. Spivey, what a pleasure it is to meet you.
-Sure. Pull up a chair, sit down, let's talk. -Sure.
[CLEARS THROAT]
R.P. McMurphy.
That's a hell of a fish there, doc.
-lsn't that a dandy? -Yeah. It's about 40 pounds, ain't it?
-No, 32. -Thirty-two.
I'll tell you, it took every bit of strength I had...
...to hold it while the guy took the picture.
Every damn bit.
Probably that chain didn't help it any either.
You didn't weigh the chain, did you, doc?
No, I didn't weigh the chain, but damn, I'm awful proud of that picture.
That's the first Chinooker I ever caught.
-lt's a nice one. -Hmm.
Randall Patrick McMurphy.
Thirty-eight years old.
Mm.
What can you tell me about, uh...
...why you've been sent over here?
Well, ahem, I don't know.
What's it say there?
-Mind if l smoke? -No, go right ahead.
Well, it, um...
...says several things here.
Said you've been belligerent...
...talked when unauthorized...
...you've been resentful in attitude toward work in general, that you're lazy.
Chewing gum in class.
[McMURPHY LAUGHS]
The real reason you've been sent over here...
...is because they wanted you to be evaluated.
-Yeah. -To determine whether or not...
...you're mentally ill.
-Uh-huh. -This is the real reason.
Why do you think they might think that?
[SIGHS]
Well, as near as I can figure out, it's because I, uh....
Uh, fight and fuck too much.
In the penitentiary?
No, no, no, you mean why-- Wait--
Why did you get sent over here from the work farm?
Oh. Oh, yeah. Oh. Uh....
Well, l really don't know, doc.
It says here that you went around--
-Let me just take a look. -lt ain't up to me, you know.
One, two, three, four....
-You've got at least five arrests for assault. -Yeah.
-What can you tell me about that? -Five fights, huh?
Rocky Marciano's got 40, and he's a millionaire.
-That's true. -That is true.
Of course, it's true that you went in for statutory rape.
That's true, is it not, this time?
Absolutely true. But, doc...
...she was 1 5 years old going on 35, doc...
...and, uh, she told me she was 1 8, and she was...
...uh, very willing. You know what l mean?
-Mm. Mm. -l practically had to take...
...to sewing my pants shut.
But, uh, between you and me, uh...
...she might have been 1 5. When you get that little red beaver...
...right up there in front of you, I don't think it's crazy at all.
-And I don't think you do either. -l hear what you're saying.
No man alive could resist that. That's why I got into jail to begin with.
Now they're telling me I'm crazy over here...
...because I don't sit there like a goddamn vegetable.
It don't make a bit of sense to me.
If that's what being crazy is...
...then l'm senseless, out of it, gone down the road, wacko.
But no more, no less. That's it.
Well, to be honest with you, McMurphy, what it says here...
...is that...
...they think....
They think...
...you've been faking it in order to get out of your work detail.
-What do you think about that? -Do l look like that kind of guy to you, doc?
Well....
Let's just be frank for a minute, Randall, if you would.
Tell me...
...do you think there's anything wrong with your mind, really?
Not a thing, doc.
I'm a goddamn marvel of modern science.
Well, you're gonna be here for a period for us to evaluate you.
-We're gonna study you. -Mm-hm.
We'll make our determinations as to what, uh, we're going to do...
...and give you the necessary treatment, uh...
-...as indicated-- -Doc, let me just tell you this.
I'm here to cooperate with you 1 00 percent.
A hundred percent.
I'll be just right down the line with you. You watch.
Because I think we ought to get to the bottom of, uh, R.P. McMurphy.
[EXHALlNG SHARPLY]
INMATE: Whoo!

INMATE: Oh.

[INMATE COUGHS]
WASHlNGTON: Mr. Ellsworth...
...you'll wear yourself out. Come here.
Okay.
RATCHED: All right, gentlemen, let's begin.
At the close of Friday's meeting...
...we were discussing Mr. Harding's problem concerning his wife.
Mr. Harding stated that his wife made him uneasy...
...because she drew stares from men on the street.
-ls that correct, Mr. Harding? -Yes. Uh, yes. That's correct.
He also thinks he may have given her reason...
...to seek sexual attention elsewhere, but he wasn't able to say how.
Mr. Harding has been heard to say to his wife:
"I hate you. I don't ever want to see you again.
You've betrayed me."
So does anyone care to touch on this further?
[PAPER RUSTLlNG]
Mr. Scanlon, would you begin today?
Are you sure?
Billy, how about you?
No-- No-- No, ma'am.
RATCHED: I'd like to write in my book that you began the meeting.
[INMATE COUGHS]
RATCHED: Just once.
Mr. Martini?
Are you with us?
Yes.
RATCHED: Would you like to begin?
Mr. Cheswick?
-Me? RATCHED: Yes.
You mean there's not a man here who has an opinion on this matter?
[INMATE CLEARS THROAT]
RATCHED: All right.
Mr. Harding...
...you've stated on more than one occasion...
...that you suspected your wife of seeing other men.
Oh, yes. Yes, very much-- I suspect her.
Well, maybe you can tell us why you suspect her.
Well, l can only...
...speculate as to the reasons why.
Have you ever speculated, Mr. Harding...
...that perhaps you are...
...impatient with your wife...
...because she doesn't meet your mental requirements?
HARDlNG: Perhaps, but you see, the only thing I can really...
...speculate on, Nurse Ratched...
...is the very existence of my life, with or without my wife...
...in terms of the human relationships, the juxtaposition...
...of one person to another, the form, the content.
Harding, why don't you knock off the bullshit and get to the point?
This is the point.
This is the point, Taber. It's not bullshit.
I'm not just talking about my wife, I'm talking about my life.
I can't seem to get that through to you.
I'm not just talking about one person, I'm talking about everybody.
I'm talking about form. I'm talking about content.
I'm talking about interrelationships.
I'm talking about God, the devil, hell, heaven.
-Do you understand? Finally? -Ha!
Yeah, Harding, you're so fucking dumb I can't believe it.
Oh. Oh.
It makes me feel very peculiar, very peculiar...
-...when you throw in that. -Peculiar?
-Why? -What does that mean, peculiar, Harding?
-Peculiar? Peculiar? -Peculiar?
SEFELT: Ha-ha-ha. -l'm going to tell you guys something.
You just don't wanna learn anything.
You just don't want to listen to anybody.
He's got intelligence.
You've never heard the word peculiar? Say, what are you trying to say?
You trying to say I'm queer? Is that it?
Little Mary Ann? Little Marjorie Jane? Huh?
That it? Is that what you're trying to tell me?
Is that your idea of communicating something?
-Well, is it? CHESWlCK: Oh.
They're all crowding in on you, Mr. Harding.
-They're all ganging up on you. -ls that news?
No, they-- They sometimes wanna gang up on me too, but I--
-Cheswick, do me a favor. CHESWlCK: What? Huh?
-Take it easy. CHESWlCK: Take it--?
-And stay off my side. CHESWlCK: But l only wanna--
I only wanna help you.
HARDlNG: l understand. CHESWlCK: Don't you want me to--?
HARDlNG: Please. CHESWlCK: But l only wanna--
-Please. -But l only wanna help you.
Please!
HARDlNG: You see...
...the other day you made some allusions, both of you.
-lllusions? HARDlNG: A sexual-- Yes, allusions.
Allusions. Not illusions. Allusions...
...to sexual problems I might be having with my wife.
All right, say it's true. Say I know it to be true, but you don't.
If that's your idea of trying to tell me something--
Harding, l think you're some kind of morbid asshole or something.
SEFELT: Peculiar. -Asshole again.
FREDRlCKSON: It makes you feel peculiar.
You been talking about your wife ever since I can remember. She's on your mind.
-Blah, blah, blah. -l'm not talking about my wife.
When are you gonna get that through your head?
When are you gonna wise up and turn her loose?
FREDRlCKSON: Please. SEFELT: No, just peculiar.
-l'm tired. -l don't wanna hear it.
BANClNl: I'm tired.
CHESWlCK: l don't wanna hear it. -l'm tired.
-lt's a lot of baloney. CHESWlCK: l don't wanna hear it.
BANClNl: It's a lot of baloney and l'm tired.
CHESWlCK: l don't wanna hear it. WARREN: We know you're tired. We're tired.
BANClNl: I'm tired and it's a lot of baloney. WARREN: You're not tired, Bancini.

I ain't talking to him. l'm talking to myself. It helps me think.
Yeah, well, it don't help him none.
Well, it don't hurt him either, does it?
Don't hurt you, does it, Chief?

Now, jump up and put her in the basket, Chief. Huh?
Jump up and put her in the basket! Not you, Bancini.

Let me get in here, will you, Hard-on? Thank you. Excuse me, miss.
Do you think it might be possible to turn that music down...
...so maybe a couple of the boys could talk?
That music is for everyone, Mr. McMurphy.
I know, but do you think we might ease it down a little bit...
...so maybe the boys didn't have to shout? Huh?
What you probably don't realize...
...is that we have a lot of old men on this ward...
...who couldn't hear the music if we turned it lower.
That music is all they have.
Your hand is staining my window.
-Oh. I'm sorry, ma'am. Really sorry. RATCHED: All right.
-Mr. McMurphy, your medication. -Huh?
-What's in the horse pill? -lt's just medicine. It's good for you.
Yeah, but l don't like the idea of taking something if I don't know what it is.
-Don't get upset, Mr. McMurphy. -l'm not getting upset, Miss Pilbow.
It's just that l don't want anyone to try and slip me saltpeter.
You know what l mean?
[TAPPlNG ON COUNTER]
RATCHED: It's all right, Nurse Pilbow.
If Mr. McMurphy doesn't want to take his medication orally...
...l'm sure we can arrange that he can have it some other way.
But l don't think you'd like it, Mr. McMurphy.
You'd like it, wouldn't you, Hard-on? Give it to me.

One week. That's all I need. Who wants to bet?
You wanna bet? Bet a buck. One buck. Huh?
I'll bet.
McMURPHY: Tabes in, 1 buck. Solid.
Last time we were discussing...
...Mr. Harding and the problem with his wife...
...and l think we were making a lot of progress.
So who would like to begin today?
Mr. McMurphy?
Yeah, l've been thinking about what you said about, uh...
[McMURPHY CLEARS THROAT]
...you know, getting things off your chest.
And, uh.... Uh, ahem.
Well, there's a couple of things that I'd like to get off my chest.
Well, that's very good, Mr. McMurphy. Go ahead.
McMURPHY: Okay.
Today, as you may or may not know-- It doesn't matter.
--is the opening of the World Series.
What l'd like to suggest is that we change the work detail tonight...
...so that we can watch the ball game.
RATCHED: Well, Mr. McMurphy, what you're asking...
...is that we change a very carefully worked-out schedule.
A little change never hurt, huh? A little variety?
Well, it's not necessarily true, Mr. McMurphy.
Some men on the ward take a long, long time to get used to the schedule.
Change it now, and they might find it very disturbing.
Ah, fuck the schedule. They can go back to the schedule after the Series.
I'm talking about the World Series, Nurse Ratched. Huh?
Well, anyway, this is no way to proceed about this.
How would it be if we had a vote...
...and let majority rule?
Great. Let's vote on her.
So all those in favor, raise your hands.
Okay, guys, come on.
Put your hands up.
What's the matter with you? Don't you wanna watch the World Series?
Come on, get your hands up. It'll do you good...
...to get some exercise putting your arms up in the air.
That's it. Come on, let's....
What is this crap? I mean, l watch the Series.
I haven't missed the Series in years.
Even in the cooler. When I'm in the cooler, they run it there or they have a riot.
What's the matter with you guys? Come on, be good Americans.
Well, Mr. McMurphy, I only count three votes...
...and that's not enough to change ward policy.
I'm sorry.
HARDlNG: My turn. Okay, hot dice.
I wanna get to go.
Because I need cash.
I wanna get to Mediterranean Avenue. Big 1 0. Perfect.
Two fives. Two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine....
-What are you doing? -Hotel.
-You do not have a hotel there. -Hotel.
For the third time...

-...to put a hotel on Boardwalk. -Hotel.

-Knock off the bullshit. -Huh?
-Play the game, Harding. -What are you talking about?
-Play the game. -l ain't doing anything to you.

Anybody wanna come with me?
-l do, Mac. l wanna go with you. McMURPHY: Ches, all right. Anybody else?
-Where? -Any bar downtown.
Mac-- Mac, you can't--
Can't get-- Can't get out of here.
Anybody wanna bet?
Hmm, chickenshits?
Maybe he'll just show Nurse Ratched his big thing...
...and she'll open the door for him.
[LAUGHlNG]
Yeah, maybe I will...
...and then maybe I'll just use your thick skull and knock a hole in the wall.
Sefelt, see?
[LAUGHlNG]
Why, my head would squash like an eggplant.
[LAUGHlNG]
Fuck Sefelt's head, I don't need Sefelt's head.
I'm gonna take this, put it through the window...
...and me and my buddy Cheswick are gonna go out...
...downtown, sit down in a bar, wet our whistles...
...and watch the ball game.
And that's the bet. Now, does anybody want any of it? Huh?
You're gonna lift that thing?
Yeah. That's right.
I'll bet a buck.
Taber, $1 .
I bet a dime.
Mac, you can't-- Can't li-- Lift that thing.
Anybody else want any of it? Hard-on?
Hmm?
I'll bet $25.

Mac! Mac, no-- Nobody could ever lift that thing.
Get out of my way, son. You're using my oxygen.

Why can't we go on to some new business?
Huh?
The business of this meeting, Mr. Cheswick...
...is therapy.
Oh.
Well, you know, I don't understand this, Miss Ratched...
...because, uh, I don't, uh....
Mr. McMurphy...
...he said something yesterday about a World Series.
A baseball game?
You know, and l've never been to a baseball game...
...and, well, I think I'd like to see one...
...and that would be good therapy, too, wouldn't it, Miss Ratched?
I thought we'd decided that issue.
Well, l don't think so, because, l mean...
...we discussed that yesterday...
...and we have a new game today, I think, don't we, Mac?
That's right, Ches, and we want a new vote on it, don't we?
Would one more vote satisfy you, Mr. McMurphy?
Yeah.
It'll satisfy me.
There's a vote before the group.
Everyone in favor of changing the schedule, please raise your hand.
Okay, l wanna see the hands. Come on.
Which one of you nuts has got any guts?
-All right. That's it. -l only count nine votes, Mr. McMurphy.
Ha-ha-ha. She only counts nine. Only nine. lt's a landslide.
[LAUGHlNG]
There are 1 8 patients on this ward, Mr. McMurphy...
...and you have to have a majority to change ward policy.
So you gentlemen can put your hands down now.
Are you trying to tell me that you're gonna count these?
These poor son of a bitches? They don't know what we're talking about.
Well, l have to disagree with you, Mr. McMurphy.
These men are members of the ward, just as you are.
All right. All l need is one vote, right?
Right?
All right.
Okay.
Wanna watch the World Series? Come on in, pal.
This could be a big moment for you. Wanna watch a baseball game?

Just raise your hand up, Chief. Will you? Huh?
[SIGHS]
Come on, there's gotta be one guy in here that's not a total fucking nut.
Mac?

[SCREAMS]
Chief! Nurse Ratched! Nurse Ratched, look.
Look. The Chief put his hand up.
The Chief put his hand up. Look, he voted.
Would you please turn--? Would you please turn the television set on?
The Chief has got his hand up, right there.
The Chief voted. Now, will you please turn the television set on?
RATCHED: Mr. McMurphy...
...the meeting was adjourned, and the vote was closed.
But the vote was 1 0-to-8. The Chief, he's got his hand up. Look.
No, Mr. McMurphy.
When the meeting was adjourned, the vote was 9-to-9.
Ah, come on, you're not gonna say that now. You're not gonna say that now.
You're gonna pull that shit now, when-- The Chiefjust voted. lt was 1 0-to-9.
I want that television set turned on! Right now!
[ORDERLY SPEAKlNG lNDlSTlNCTLY]
MlLLER: Mr. Cheswick.
Come on. Come on.
CHESWlCK: l wanna watch television. MlLLER: No, you have a work assignment.
[CHATTERlNG]
-Koufax. INMATE: Where's my sponge?
McMURPHY: Koufax kicks. He delivers. It's up the middle, it's a base hit.
Richardson's rounding first, going for second. The ball's in to deep right center.
Davidson over in the corner. Here comes the throw.
Richardson around the dirt. Slides, he's in there! A double!
He's in there, Martini! Richardson, he's on second base.
Koufax is in big fucking trouble. Big trouble, baby.
All right, here's Tresh. He's the next batter.
Tresh looks in. Koufax....
Koufax gets the sign from Roseboro. He kicks once, he pumps.
It's a strike. Koufax's curve ball is snapping off like a fucking firecracker.
Here he comes with the next pitch.
Tresh swings. It's a long fly ball to deep left center!
[YELLING]
-lt's going! It's gone! RATCHED: Mr. Washington...
...and Mr. Warren, please see that the men are doing their work.
[CHATTERlNG]
Somebody get me a fucking wiener before l die.
Koufax looks down. Looking at the great Mickey Mantle now. Here comes the pitch.
Mantle swings. It's a fucking home run!
Gentlemen, stop this.
Stop this immediately.
[YELLING]
Do you like it here?
Well, that fucking nurse, man.
What do you mean, sir?
She, uh....
She ain't honest.
Oh, now, look.
Miss Ratched's one of the finest nurses we've got in this institution.
[McMURPHY LAUGHS]
Well, l don't wanna break up the meeting or nothing...
...but she's something of a cunt, ain't she, doc?
How do you mean that?
She likes a rigged game. You know what l mean?
Well, you know, l've, uh, been observing you here now...
...for the last four weeks...
...and l don't see any evidence of mental illness at all.
I think that you've been trying to put us on all this time.
You know, what do you want me to do? You know.
[TAPPlNG]
You know what l mean? Is that it? Is that crazy enough for you?
Want me to take a shit on the floor? Hmm. Christ.
Have you ever heard the old saying, "A rolling stone gathers no moss"?
Yeah.
Does that mean something to you?
Uh....
It's the same as "Don't wash your dirty underwear in public."
I'm not sure l understand what you mean.
I'm smarter than him, ain't l?
[McMURPHY LAUGHS]
Well, that sort of has always meant is, uh...
...it's hard for something to grow on something that's moving.
How did you feel about what happened yesterday?
Well, you wanna kill. You know what l mean?
[LAUGHlNG]
[McMURPHY CLEARS THROAT]
Do you gentlemen have any more questions?
MAN: No, not at the moment.
I don't have any more, but, uh, perhaps you do.
Do you have a question, McMurphy?
Where do you suppose she lives?
[INMATES PLAYING MUSlC]
Chief, come on with me.
Come on.
We'll show these guys who's nuts.
Huh?
All right, wait. Stand right here.

Hey, wait a minute. Aah!

MAN: Hey, wait a minute. What the heck is going on here?
-What are you doing on this boat? -We're going fishing.
No, you're not going fishing.
Not on this boat. You're not going fishing on this boat.
Oh, yeah, on this boat. Uh, ask Captain Block.
-Captain Block? -Captain Block. Yes, that's right.
Who are you?
Uh, we're from the, uh, state mental institution.
Uh....
This is Dr. Cheswick, Dr. Taber, Dr. Fredrickson...

Mr. Harding, Dr. Bibbit...
...Dr. Martini, and, uh, Dr. Sefelt.
-How about you? Who are you? -Oh. I'm Dr. McMurphy. R.P. McMurphy.
Wait, wait, wait one second. You don't understand.
We chartered the boat, we're going to go fishing...
...and, uh, that's all there is to it.
You better quit on this. They'll throw you in the can again, you know.
No, they won't. We're nuts.
[LAUGHS]
They'll just take us back to the feeb farm, see?
Von Sefelt, get the stern line.
-Tabes, you're at the bow. SEFELT: This one?
That one. The one at your feet.
[ENGINE STARTS]
Get back on. Jesus.
[McMURPHY LAUGHS]

Aye, aye, sir. l mean, yes, Mac.

-Lot of fun. -Come on over here.
Put your hands on the wheel.
-Put your hands on. CHESWlCK: l never did this.
Put your hands on the wheel so you don't fall down. All right.
Just hold it steady right there, like that.
-Steady? -Steady, yeah.
Now just go straight.
-Straight as an arrow, Charlie. -Straight, Mac?
-Just straight. That's right. -But, Mac....
Mac, this thing ain't too steady, Mac. Mac!
-Mac. Where are we going, Mac? McMURPHY: Straight. Just go on.
Oh.
This is the bait.
-Little fishes. MARTlNl: Dead fishes.
That's right.
Now, what are we gonna do with these little fishes?
-Catch big fishes. -That's right. That's right, Mr. Martini.
And hooks.
Hooks.
Now, hold on to your hooks because here are the fishes.
Tabes.
Get a fish here. There, for you, Martini.
All right, now we each one of us has got a fish.
What are you laughing at, Martini? You're not an idiot, huh?
You're not a goddamn loony now, boy, you're a fisherman. Ha-ha-ha.
-Yes. Yes. -Huh? Now, take your bottom hook.
-You got it? MARTlNl: Yes.
You take it...
...and you push it all the way through. Like that.
Wait a second. Get it through the eyes. Here.
-Right through here. MARTlNl: In his eye?
McMURPHY: Don't worry about it. He's dead, Martini.
Jesus Christ, just put it through his eyeball here.
That's it.
Crunch it right through. All right. Now you got it, see?
Now, you just pull that baby through. You see what I mean?
And you wrap it around. You pull this so it's a little loop.
-That's very good. MARTlNl: Aah!
McMURPHY: That's very good, Mr. Fredrickson.
Very good eye work. Good eye work.
That little devil's gonna not even feel the sting, is he, boy? Huh?
That son of a gun is gonna bite on you, is he? Let me see that face.
You-- You, um-- Got-- Got-- Got beautiful hair.
Thank you.
McMURPHY: You gotta pull it tight like this.
And you-- You, um, got--
[STUTTERING]
Beautiful eyes.

[HUMMlNG]
[SINGlNG "I'M POPEYE THE SAILOR MAN"]
Now, just keep watching the tip here. If you get a strike, let me know.
Understand?
Come on, Candy. Just keep fishing, guys.
Don't call me unless you get something really big...
...you can't handle yourselves.
Keep on fishing.
That's right.
McMURPHY LAUGHING]
Mac?
Hey! Where is everybody?
Hey. Hey!
Cheswick! Goddamn it, l told you to steer that boat straight.
I tried to.
TABER: Fish!
Fish! Help, help!
Goddamn it, he's got a fish. Hold it! Wait a minute, Tabes. I got it.
Cheswick, get the fuck back up there! Get up there and drive!
-Fish! -l got it, Tabes.
Get up, Tabes, I'll get it for you.
Son of a bitch, he's going over here! Get up, Tabes!
I got it.
I got it. Give it to me.
-Hey, Harding, l'm the skipper of this boat. HARDlNG: Ah, shut up.
Well, he said to go straight out as an arrow.
You're not going straight, you're kind of....
I'm going straight enough. Now, Chessy, stop it.
-lt's my duty. -Chessy, stop it.
-No! -Don't you--
CHESWlCK: No, you son of a bitch.

That's it. Now play them, boys.
[LAUGHlNG]
You son of a bitches.
CHESWlCK: Keep it straight.
Come back this way.
McMURPHY: Home safe and sound. Didn't lose a nut.
Beach bowling, you know what l mean?
[LAUGHlNG]
SEFELT: We caught it, look.
McMURPHY: They're gonna be trolling this place...
...for six months looking for dead bodies.
Whoo!
We caught it. Look.
I think he's dangerous.
He's not crazy, but he's dangerous.
-You don't think he's crazy? -No, he's not crazy.
Dr. Songee?
I don't think he's overly psychotic...
...but l still think he's quite sick.
-Do you think he's dangerous? -Absolutely so.
Well, John, what do you wanna do with him?
Well, l think we've had our turn.
I'd like to send him back to the, uh, work farm, frankly.
MAN: ls there anybody that you have on your staff...
...that could relate to him? Maybe understand him?
Help him out with some of these problems?
Well, the funny thing is that the person that he's the closest to...
...is the one he dislikes the most. Heh.
MAN: Well, sure. -That's you, Mildred.
Well, gentlemen, in my opinion, if we send him back to Pendleton...
...or we send him up to Disturbed...
...it's just one more way of passing on our problem to somebody else.
You know we don't like to do that.
So l'd like to keep him on the ward.
I think we can help him.
All right, huh? Chief. Chief, come on.
Come with me, huh? All right.
Now, Chief, this is the spot.
Right there is the spot. Remember? Raise the hands, in the basket.
That's it. Raise the hands up.
All right. Let's have a little ball from you nuts in here. Here we go.
All right. Let's play some ball, nuts. Let's make some moves.
Hey, Mac, Mac. Time, time, time. You got six men on the court.
All right. Harding, out of the ball game.
Hey, why me?
-Because I'm the coach. l'll put you in later. -Oh, no, no. I don't trust you.
[LAUGHlNG]
Ma-- Mac, I'll go.
McMURPHY: Okay, good boy, Billy. I'll put you in in a minute, all right?
All right, let's play ball. Harding, break over.
All right, Martini, get it back. I'm in the open. What are you doing?
You threw the damn ball into the fence!
Christ Almighty, you threw the ball into the fence!
There's nobody there. We're playing ball.
All right, come on, get in the game. Defense, nobody's doing nothing here.
-For chrissake. HARDlNG: Hey, Mac, l'm open. l'm open.
All right, Harding, give it back. Back to me, Harding. Here.
I'm open. Harding, will you give me the ball?
-Stop dribbling the goddamn ball. HARDlNG: l got it.
McMURPHY: Harding, over here.
Oh, for chrissake, I'm standing--
HARDlNG: You were covered. -l was open.
Just give me the ball. They're making all over the--
I was open. Give me the ball.
-You were covered, Mac. -l wasn't covered. Somebody get back.
-Give it to me. Give it to me. MAN 1 : All right?
MAN 2: Ow! MAN 3: Yeah, we're going.
McMURPHY: Chief. Attababy, put it in.
[CHEERlNG]
McMURPHY: Get down there.
MAN 4: Defense. MAN 5: Hey!
[MAN WHISTLES]
Get down there, Chief. All right, all right.
HARDlNG: Pick up somebody over there! McMURPHY: Get this side.
Get around, Chief.
[YELLING]
McMURPHY: No, no, no. Get down there, Chief.
The ball's in play. Ball's in play.
WASHlNGTON: That's bullshit. -Ball's in play.
Oh, fuck that shit. You got to be crazy.
MlLLER: Man, that doesn't go. The ball ain't in play.
MAN 6: Chief. MAN 7: Go on, Chief.
MAN 8: Put it in.
Chief, all right! That was great!
[CHEERlNG]
What a ball club.
[CHATTERlNG]
WASHlNGTON: McMurphy, get off the side.
-Come on, move it, man. -Hey, damn it.
Go ahead. Come on. Come on. There's no one looking.
Go ahead. Go ahead.
Go ahead.
I'll be seeing you on the outside. You know what l mean?
By the time you get out of here...
...you'll be too old to even get it up.
Sixty-eight days, buddy. Sixty-eight days.
What the fuck you talking about, 68 days?
That's in jail, sucker.
You still don't know where you're at, do you?
-Yeah, where am I at, Washington? -With us, baby, you're with us.
And you're gonna stay with us until we let you go.
Do you want to say something to the group, Mr. McMurphy?
Well, ahem, yeah.
I'd like to know why none of the guys never told me that you...
...Miss Ratched...
...and the doctors could keep me here till you're good and ready to turn me loose.
-That's what I'd like to know. -Well, fine, Randall. That's a good start.
Would anyone care to answer Mr. McMurphy?
Answer what?
You heard me, Harding.
You let me go on hassling Nurse Ratched here...
...knowing how much l had to lose and you never told me nothing.
Now, Mac, wait a minute.
Wait a minute, l didn't know anything about how much--
-Shit. Fuck. HARDlNG: Wait a minute. No, listen.
Now, look. I'm voluntary here, see? I'm not committed.
I don't have to stay here. I mean, l can go home any time I want.
You can go home any time you want?
-That's it. -You're bullshitting me.
He's bullshitting me, right?
No, Randall, he's telling you the truth.
As a matter of fact, there are very few men here who are committed.
There's Mr. Bromden, Mr. Taber...
...some of the chronics, and you.
-Cheswick? -Hmm?
You're voluntary?
Mm-hm.
McMURPHY: Scanlon?
Billy, for chrissakes, you must be committed, right?
No-- No-- No.
Oh. Oh, man.
You're just a young kid.
What are you doing here? You ought to be out in a convertible...
...bird-dogging chicks and banging beaver.
What are you doing here, for chrissake?
[INMATES LAUGHlNG]
-What's so funny about that? BlLLY: Well....
Jesus, l mean, you guys do nothing but complain about how you can't...
...stand it in this place here, and then you haven't got the guts to walk out?
I mean, what do you think you are, for chrissake? Crazy or something?
Well, you're not. You're not.
You're no crazier than the average asshole walking around on the streets.
And that's it. Jesus Christ, l can't even believe it.
Those are very challenging observations you made, Randall.
I'm sure some of the men would like to comment.
Mr. Scanlon?
I wanna know why the dorm is locked in the daytime and on weekends.
[SIGHS]
Yeah. l would like to know about our cigarettes.
May I have my cigarettes, please, Miss Ratched?
You sit down, Mr. Cheswick, and wait your turn.
Go ahead, sit down.
To answer your question about the dorm, Mr. Scanlon...
...you know very well...
...that if we left the door open, you'd just go right back to bed after breakfast.
-Am I right? -So what?
May I have my cigarettes, please, Miss Ratched?
Forget the cigarettes, Cheswick.
Cigarettes are not important. Sit down, will you?
For chrissake.
Cigarettes.
Remember, Mr. Scanlon, we've discussed many times...
...that time spent in the company of others is very therapeutic...
...while time spent brooding alone only increases a feeling of separation.
You remember that, don't you?
Do you mean to say...
...it's sick to wanna be off by yourself?
CHESWlCK: Miss Ratched?
Mr. Cheswick, you sit down.
-But l wanna know about-- RATCHED: Sit down, Mr. Cheswick.
I wanna--
-Give him a cigarette, will you, Harding? -lt's my last one.
That's a fucking lie. Why don't you give him a cigarette?
HARDlNG: Look, l'm not running a charity ward, see?
Come on.
Look, l don't want his cigarettes, and l don't want his or his or his...
...or his or his or his or his or his, or even yours.
Do you understand that?. I want my cigarettes, Miss Ratched.
I want my cigarettes. I want mine, Miss Ratched.
What gives you the damn right...
...to keep our cigarettes piled up on your desk...
...and to squeeze out a pack only when you feel like it, huh?
-Miss Ratched. -Mr.-- Mr. Harding.
[FREDRICKSON LAUGHlNG]
Oh, l'm sorry.
RATCHED: You surprise me. -No, well, I lost my head. l'm sorry.
I'm sorry, I didn't mean-- I'm really very sorry. I just forgot.
I didn't mean-- I'm really very sorry. Just forgot.
-lt's all right. HARDlNG: Thank you.
CHESWlCK: Miss Ratched!
-Yes, Mr. Cheswick? -l asked you a question.
I heard your question, Mr. Cheswick...
...and l will answer your question as soon as you've calmed down.
Okay.
Are you calm, Mr. Cheswick?
-l'm calm. -Good.
Now, as you all know...
...Mr. McMurphy has been running a small gambling casino in our tub room.
Now, most of you lost all your cigarettes to Mr. McMurphy...
...not to mention a tidy sum of money to Mr. McMurphy.
And that's why...
...your tub-room privileges have been suspended...
...and your cigarettes have been rationed.
Mr. Martini?
How we gonna win our money back?
[LAUGHlNG]
You're not going to win your money back, Mr. Martini.
That's all over.
If you had obeyed the rules in the first place...
-...you wouldn't have lost your money. TABER: Oh!
[SCREAMlNG]
Sit down, gentlemen. Sit down, gentlemen.
-Sit down. Sit down. TABER: Oh! Oh!
Oh, God. Oh, my God.
Rules? Piss on your fucking rules, Miss Ratched.
Sit down, will you, Cheswick?
I want you to know something here and now, Miss Ratched.
-l ain't no little kid. l ain't no little kid... RATCHED: You sit down.
...where you're gonna have cigarettes kept from me like cookies...
...and l want something done! Ain't that right, Mac?
-That's right. Now, will you sit down? -l won't! I won't! I want something done!
McMURPHY: Sit down. -l want something done!
RATCHED: Mr. Washington!
CHESWlCK: I want something done!
I want something done!
-Here. Here. CHESWlCK: l want something done!
McMURPHY: Goddamn it, Cheswick, here. Hey, calm down.
Why don't you leave him alone, Washington? He's gonna be all right.
[GRUNTlNG AND YELLING]
Emergency 34-B, 34-B.
WASHlNGTON: I'm gonna break your fucking back.
Punk-ass motherfucker.
[McMURPHY GRUNTlNG]
WASHlNGTON: Forget it. It's all over, McMurphy.
Warren! Warren!
[YELLING]

We're not going to hurt you. Sit down, right here. That's it.
Nurse, this is Mr. Cheswick. He's a little upset.
Okay, fine. Thank you very much.

[INMATE GRUNTING]
[INMATE MUTTERING]

Ah, Juicy Fruit.
Well, you sly son of a bitch, Chief. Ha!
-Can you hear me too? -Yeah, you bet.
Well, l'll be goddamned, Chief.
And they all-- They all think you're deaf and dumb.

Is that true?
SEFELT: No, ma'am.
RATCHED: Jim...
...are you giving your medication to Mr. Fredrickson...
...or are you not?

[LAUGHlNG]
Well, that's an amusing thought, Randall...
...but when you came in, we were talking to Jim.
He has a problem with his medication, and we'd like to get back to that.
Oh, l don't mind at all, Nurse Ratched.
I'm, uh, gentle as a puppy dog and....
Please proceed. Thank you.

It sucks out of him until he'd shrunk...

Killed him, huh?
I'm not saying they killed him.
