After a week of barely showing up to work, and going on spontaneous dates with the local waitress, Peter finds that he is going to be promoted, while Samir and Michael are going to be laid off. The layoffs lead Peter to convince Michael to infect the work computers, with Samir’s help, with a virus that would secretly steal money from the company. This goes terribly wrong when Michael misplaces a decimal and instead of fractions of a penny going missing, full dollars go missing. When Peter goes to turn in his confession, fully knowing he is going to go to jail, he finds the office in a much unexpected state. Milton, the worker who had been laid off five years ago, but no one had told him, was finally fed up with being walked all over and set the building on fire, something he had muttered about before.
The title of this episode is “Mac is a Serial Killer”. 10:00 a.m. on a Thursday, the gang is sitting around in the bar when Frank reads about a serial killer who has been killing young attractive blondes.

Mac enters and everyone is suspicious of him when they accuse him of not coming home the night before and they notice scratches on his neck. Frank is sure that Mac is the serial killer and declares that he is going to torture Mac.
Blake likes to believe that he is in control of every situation, almost like he is the puppet master of his own life. He treats his wife horribly and he frequently punishes her as if she were his child. He once did not talk to her for 2 weeks because she didn’t have dinner ready when he got home from work. He built a book case to barricade himself in his room so that he & his wife would live separately in the same room. He thrives on the sense of power his controlling ways gives him.
Guy went into a panic, calling 911 (or whatever the emergency number would be for this time) to get her medical treatment. Quickly two hospitals workers show up with a machine that took minimal work to set up. Guy stood back and observed the two men who were smoking in his house, with seemingly no care to his wife’s state of health as they used the “snake” to purge her stomach of all the pills, food and acid. The procedure took very little time and effort on the medical workers
Seriously agitated, the Big Nurse guilt trips one of the patients, Billy Bibbit, until he commits suicide. After this incident, McMurphy is blamed for the trouble, in which he retaliates by revealing Nurse Ratched’s breast, and even strangling her on an occasion.
Hubert on the other hand believes that murdering a police officer will do little to help their situation as it will most likely either intensify the rioting and tension between the police and the people or that it will just land them in prison. Said however finds himself struggling with the extremely complicated situation. Said represents the innocence of the whole conflict. The three go through an aimless daily routine to entertain themselves, frequently finding themselves under police scrutiny. They hang out, sell drugs, antagonize the police and each other, and attempt to gain entry to the hospital ward where Abdel
She has her ward well under control with a strict daily routine until a new patient arrives. The rebellious Randle P. McMurphy charged for the statutory rape of a 15- year old girl is transferred to the ward. He fakes insanity, hoping to avoid hard labour in the prison farm and to relax in the Oregon mental institution. McMurphy finds out how Miss Ratched is misusing her authority against the patients and he begins to fight the ward’s system. It starts with simple teasing by upsetting the daily routine and interrupting the therapy sessions.
He uses each example of his “ability to alter space in ugly ways” nonchalantly as though it happens every day (Staples 405). One instance even starts, “one day, rushing into the office building […],” like many common, ordinary stories do (Staples 406). Half expecting a casual story to follow such a typical beginning, readers may be shocked when he says the office manager mistook him for a burglar and called the police. Such incidents show sharp contrast between Staples’ casual words and his apparent
The Rise and Fall of Paul Paul’s Case by Willa Cather is a tragic story of a young man who struggles with the fantasies of living a luxurious life while being trapped in a lower class lifestyle. His obsession with theatre and art plague his study habits and his work ethic in the class room. After school Paul works as an usher at Carnegie Hall, which feeds his obsession even more. When his dad is informed of Paul’s continual failing grades, he is forced to send Paul out into the work force to prove a point. After Paul is given a duty to make a deposit for his employer for 2,000 dollars, he faces temptation of a lifetime to flee all his problems, and experience the life of an upper class citizen.
He returns to his apartment and meets Laura standing in the bedroom. I believe this scene, instead of the scene in the hospital while Frank is taking pictures of Debra Ann Kay, is the true climactic realization when Frank begins to shed his long developed habit of playing the victim and begins to face the demons of his past and present. Eerie and dramatic background quietly sets in as Frank begins to blame himself for taking the case and declares he has already lost before he has even gone to trial. Instead of receiving motherly sympathy from Laura she begins to ridicule him for acting like a child and challenges him to grow up and take on the tough responsibility of the case. With the music slowly increasing in volume and intensity with the flow of the argument Laura says, “You want to be a failure?
