Jim and Edna were both patients in a mental hospital. One day while they were walking past the hospital swimming pool, Edna suddenly jumped into the deep end. She sank to the bottom of the pool and stayed there. Jim promptly jumped in to save her. He swam to the bottom and pulled Edna out. When the Head Nurse Director became aware of Jim's heroic act, she immediately ordered him to be discharged from the hospital, as he now considered him to be mentally stable.
When she went to tell Jim the news she said, "Jim, I have good news and bad news. The good news is you're being discharged; since you were able to rationally respond to a crisis by jumping in and saving the life of another patient, I have concluded that your act displays sound mindedness. The bad news is, Edna, the patient you saved, hung herself in the bathroom with her bathrobe belt right after you saved her. I am so sorry, but she's dead." Jim replied, "She didn't hang herself, I put her there to dry. How soon can I go home?
