It is hard to get a read on exactly how crazy Chief Bromden actually is. He will go for long stretches and be completely lucid, then he will be acting absolutely crazy. In one chapter he will be observing McMurphy and analyzing him like a normal person would. In these chapters Chief Bromden is able to pick up on the subtleties of McMurphy's actions, and he is able to figure out what McMurphy is trying to do in the ward and how the staff will respond. In other chapters, Chief Bromden will be completely insane, and only focused on the Combine.He will talk almost exclusively about the machines in the walls or the the ones that he imagines that they put into people. Other chapters are spent on his hallucinations, like when he imagined that the floor was moving and he went down to the factory underneath the ward. His sanity bounces all over the place, and when going form one chapter to the next, you can never tell when he is going to be lucid or compleatley insane.
