One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest/Awesome
- Pretty much everything McMurphy does. Probably the crowning moment would be the party he has, smuggling a pair of prostitutes into the hospital and everything.
- McMurphy strangling Nurse Ratched counts as one, too.
- And this part: "Aren't you ashamed?" "No I'm not."
- Also from the above, Mac lying to the Charter Captain, saying the other patients are all Doctors' from the mental hospital…except for Harding, who is still just a Mister.
- Seen here at 3:28, complete with Death Glare from Harding.
- McMurphy strangling Nurse Ratched counts as one, too.
- Max Taber (played by Christopher Lloyd) picking on Mr. Harding, whether it's in group or when they're playing Monopoly.
- When trying to take the fishing boat, McMurphy gives the captain his number. An acute complains that they shouldn't be rushing off, and McMurphy replies by rhetorically asking: "Are we just going to wait until he finds out that that number I gave him is a brothel's? Let's get moving!
- And of course the final scene, where Chief rips out the water fountain, like McMurphy had tried but failed to do, smashes through the window, and escapes the hospital, becoming the title character.
