In, "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest", the main character is Randle P
             McMurphy. He sort of comes off as a New York tuff guy. In my opinion McMurphy is a
             hustler, considering his gambling and how he's always trying to manipulate other patients
             Chief Bromden is a six foot eight, half bread Indian. For years, Chief, "as
             McMurphy calls him", has fooled the staff and patients in the ward into thinking that he's

             The beginning of the party is somewhat important. It's an example of McMurphy's
             manipulating capabilities. Though Mr.Turkle knew he could get fired, McMurphy was
             able to talk him into letting Candy Girl and Sandy into the ward.
             Billy's tragic death is very important in understanding just what kind of effect Big
