How are McMurphy and Sandy discovered after the party?

• A. McMurphy confesses to Harding
• B. Aides discover them in the morning after Turkle falls asleep
• C. A nurse catches them in the Seclusion Room
• D. They admit to staff during breakfast

Answer: (B)

This question tests your memory of a specific post-party moment that shows how the ward’s surveillance and rules clamp down on rebellion. After McMurphy stirs things up with a night-time party and brings in Sandy, the discovery happens when the morning rounds begin. The aides come through to check the ward, and Turkle has fallen asleep, which reveals them and leads to their being found together. That lapse—the sleep of a patient who’s supposed to be keeping watch—lets the staff see what’s going on and reinforces the notion that the institution is always watching and ready to enforce its rules. So, the correct idea is that the aides discover them in the morning after Turkle falls asleep, rather than any confession to Harding, a nurse catching them in the Seclusion Room, or an admission at breakfast.
