McMurphy was idolised on the ward, eventually. First impressions of him weren't great but the real turning point was the debate regarding the world series baseball competition. McMurphy tried to lift the basin in order to try to escape, he knew and the other patients knew he couldn't and wouldn't do it, but he tried and they admired him for that. From then on McMurphy was the guy everyone wanted to be.
"Though Ratched tries to give McMurphy a fate worse than death by having him lobotomized, Bromden dignifies McMurphy by killing him, assuring that McMurphy will always be a symbol of resistance instead of a lingering cautionary tale for future patients on Ratched's ward." -Sparknotes
fishing trip , party and getting them to stand up for them selves
McMurphy ultimately chose not to escape because he felt responsible for the other patients in the ward, particularly Chief Bromden. He wanted to continue standing up to Nurse Ratched and help his fellow inmates, even at the cost of his own freedom. Additionally, McMurphy's character valued rebellion and challenging authority, so staying in the hospital became a way for him to continue defying the oppressive system.
The chief realizes that the new admission, McMurphy, is not an ordinary patient because of his rebellious and non-conformist behavior that challenges the authority and routines of the mental institution. McMurphy's actions and interactions with the other patients quickly make him stand out as a disruptive force in the ward.
