A scene from the story written by Ken Kesey in 1962. The main characters are: Randle McMurphy, Nurse Ratched, Chief Bromden, Billy Bibbitt and Dale Harding. Through a window, view of a nurse sitting at her desk, medications on shelves behind her. There is a lamp on the table and a clock on the wall. There is a door to the left of the nurse's station. Patients are gathered in a community area. Metal chairs and a rocking chair are arranged by the wall and to the side, leaving an open space in the center. A man and a woman stand on a carpet in the center, embracing and kissing. The woman is wearing a white shirt, a red sweater and denim pants tucked in to her boots. The man is wearing a black knitted cap, a red kerchief around his neck, a white shirt, jeans and dark shoes. Three patients stand and watch the couple. One has a broom. Another patient wearing a yellow Tee shirt is kneeling. He has a bandage on his right wrist.
