Joseph se dirige a visitar a su padre moribundo en un tren donde tanto el paisaje a través de las ventanas como los pasajeros, en aparente trance, y el propio estado del vehículo conforman un escenario que escapa a la razón. Sensación que se mantiene tras la llegada al sanatorio en el que está ingresado su padre, pues la curiosa estructura del edificio unida a su decadencia extrema no se ajusta a las expectativas concebidas sobre instalaciones dedicadas al cuidado de la salud. Tampoco le tranquiliza la conversación con el médico que atiende a su padre. Los métodos que dice emplear se asemejan a las fantasías de un lunático.

More crazies are found freely wandering the grounds of the asylum, they being participants in an apparently revolutionary new system instituted by the asylum’s director. But the director seems just as nutty in his own way as the patients...
