However, Nurse Ratched feels that she is upsetting them and should be removed from the ward. It seems that Nurse Ratched is increasingly threatened by McMurphy and his antics of constant rebellion and disobedience. It is at this moment that the cause of Chief Bromden's psychological problems is revealed. The Chief suffers from hallucinations and delusions. Imagine a thick fog coming out of the institute's vents and being controlled by the staff. The cause of these hallucinations is due to his time serving in World War II and his father's emasculation when he was a child. This led him to see the world in his mind as the Combine, a dominant organization that controls society and forces it into conformity and submission. The first signs of McMurphy's effect on the patients come when he openly rebels against Nurse Ratched when she refuses to recognize their vote to change the television schedule to watch the World Series. At first McMurphy finds himself in front of the turned off television and refuses to do his scheduled work. Slowly the other patients join him. It is at this point that McMurphy realizes that he has actually become their leader and has achieved equal footing with Nurse Ratched. It can also be said that this is the first time the reader sees Chief Bromden establish himself as an active participant on the ward by supporting Murphy's revolt against Nurse Ratched. This reminds me of the times when there were figures I despised who formed alliances with others to disrupt or challenge their authority. I predict that the inmates will eventually overthrow Nurse Ratched under McMurphy's guidance and cunning. Arrange a chartered fishing trip for inmates. At first he had difficulty getting the necessary number of passengers to sign up. This is because Nurse Ratched follows McMurphy and distributes literature about the dangers of boating and serious dangers
