Bromden and McMurphy attempt to defend Goerge but are later sent to the disturbed. McMurphy is then told by Nurse Ratched that he could avoid electroshock therapy if he simply admitted he was wrong, but McMurphy would do no such thing, and both Bromden and McMurphy receive electroshock therapy. This therapy actually helps Bromden and for the first time clears the fog in his head, but it has adverse effects McMurphy and Bromden is able to notice even though McMurphy hides it. Bromden is not subject to anymore treatment thanks to his recovery but McMurphy is treated three more times. Eventually Nurse Ratched decides to bring Bromden and McMurphy back from the disturbed ward realizing that they are becoming martyrs for the other patients. When McMurphy is returned to the normal ward, he is urged to escape by his fellow patients who say he will be hurt more by Nurse Ratched if he doesn’t. McMurphy calmly reminds them that Billy has a date
