He
frowns

the
one
lone
man
left
on
the
bench

Not
a
very
large
clientele
today
,
it
seems
,
nothing
like
the
crowds
of
yesteryear
.
But
then
,
c'est
la
vie
,
fads
come
and
go
.
And
I
'm
afraid
we
are
witnessing
the
sunset
of
EST.
.
Our
dear
head
nurse
is
one
of
the
few
with
the
heart
to
stand
up
for
a
grand
old
Faulknerian
tradition
in
the
treatment
of
the
rejects
of
sanity
:
Brain
Burning
.

The
door
opens
.
A
Gurney
comes
whirring
out
,
nobody
pushing
it
,
takes
the
corner
on
two
wheels
and
disappears
smoking
up
the
hall
.
McMurphy
watches
them
take
the
last
guy
in
and
close
the
door
.
"
What
they
do
is
"
--
McMurphy
listens
a
moment
--
"
take
some
bird
in
there
and
shoot
electricity
through
his
skull
?
"
"
That
's
a
concise
way
of
putting
it
.

What
the
hell

Why
,
the
patient
's
good
,
of
course
.
Everything
done
here
is
for
the
patient
's
good
.
You
may
sometimes
get
the
impression
,
having
lived
only
on
our
ward
,
that
the
hospital
is
a
vast
efficient
mechanism
that
would
function
quite
well
if
the
patient
were
not
imposed
on
it
,
but
that
's
not
true
.
EST
is
n't
always
used
for
punitive
measures
,
as
our
nurse
uses
it
,
and
it
is
n't
pure
sadism
on
the
staff
's
part
,
either
.
A
number
of
supposed
Irrecoverables
were
brought
back
into
contact
with
shock
,
just
as
a
number
were
helped
with
lobotomy
and
leucotomy
.
Shock
treatment
has
some
advantages
;
it
's
cheap
,
quick
,
entirely
painless
.
It
simply
induces
a
seizure
.

Give

.
"
Harding
leans
forward
to
explain
it
to
McMurphy
.
"
Here
's
how
it
came
about
:
two
psychiatrists
were
visiting
a
slaughterhouse
,
for
God
knows
what
perverse
reason
,
and
were
watching
cattle
being
killed
by
a
blow
between
the
eyes
with
a
sledgehammer
.
They
noticed
that
not
all
of
the
cattle
were
killed
,
that
some
would
fall
to
the
floor
in
a
state
that
greatly
resembled
an
epileptic
convulsion
.
'
Ah
,
zo
,
'
the
first
doctor
says
.
'
Ziz
is
exactly
vot
ve
need
for
our
patients
--
zee
induced
fit
!
'
His
colleague
agreed
,
of
course
.
It
was
known
that
men
coming
out
of
an
epileptic
convulsion
were
inclined
to
be
calmer
and
more
peaceful
for
a
time
,
and
that
violent
cases
completely
out
of
contact
were
able
to
carry
on
rational
conversations
after
a
convulsion
.
No
one
knew
why
;
they
still
do
n't
.
But
it
was
obvious
that
if
a
seizure
could
be
induced
in
non-epileptics
,
great
benefits
might
result
.
And
here
,
before
them
,
stood
a
man
inducing
seizures
every
so
often
with
remarkable
aplomb
.
"
Scanlon
says
he
thought
the
guy
used
a
hammer
instead
of
a
bomb
,
but
Harding
says
he
will
ignore
that
completely
,
and
he
goes
ahead
with
the
explanation
.
"
A
hammer
is
what
the
butcher
used
.
And
it
was
here
that
the
colleague
had
some
reservations
.
After
all
,
a
man
was
n't
a
cow
.
Who
knows
when
the
hammer
might
slip
and
break
a
nose
?
Even
knock
out
a
mouthful
of
teeth
?
Then
where
would
they
be
,
with
the
high
cost
of
dental
work
?
If
they
were
going
to
knock
a
man
in
the
head
,
they
needed
to
use
something
surer
and
more
accurate
than
a
hammer
;
they
finally
settled
on
electricity
.
