Jim and Edna were both patients in a sanitarium. One day while they were walking past the sanitarium swimming pool, Jim suddenly jumped into the deep end. He sank to the bottom of the pool and stayed there.

Edna promptly jumped in to save him. She swam to the bottom and pulled Jim out. When the Head Nurse/Director became aware of Edna's heroic act, she immediately ordered her to be discharged from the hospital, as she now considered her mentally stable.

When the Head Nurse/Director went to tell Edna the news she said, "Edna, I have good news and bad news. The good news is you are being discharged since you were able to rationally respond to a crisis by jumping in and saving the life of another. You now have a sound mind. The bad news is, Jim, the patient you saved, hung himself in the bathroom with his bathrobe belt right after you saved him. I am so sorry, but he's dead."

Edna replied, "He didn't hang himself, I put him there to dry. How soon can I go home?"
