She calls the police as the argument escalates, and they take him from his bed to the police station where his refusal to cooperate ends up with him being sent to an asylum for being mentally unbalanced.

However, his time in the asylum has led him to become damaged in many physical and mental ways, and it is only through his friendship with an older widow that he begins the path to redemption.
