And after tonight, Im looking forward to seeing where this story goes.

Norman is resting in his room; apparently he cant remember yesterday at all.

He asks what happened You had a bad day yesterday, says Norma.

Understatement of the century.

You know…typical mother-son things.

(He also envisions her waking up and trying to attack him.)

Norma tells him shes not scared to be alone, but Norma, maybe youshouldbe.

(Is this where Mother will finally end up, after it all?)

She doesnt, obviously, which makes her return to the house that much worse.

Norman doesnt want to go out.

Im afraid of you, and I love you.

And thats a bad combination, he tells his mother, a statement which is both truthful and creepy.

And thats where Norman really starts to lose it.

Finally, were getting somewhere on the like make Norma realize how creepy her son is front.

He shows her the papers and tells her again hes not letting her lock him up.

So, whats the solution to this?

We just dont belong in this world anymore, Norman tells his mother seriously and sadly.

Theyre interrupted by Romero, who takes Norman away while a distraught Norma apologizes.

And, shockingly, a resigned Norman actually does.

Something tells me this wont be as easy as getting Norman admitted to Pineview and getting him help.

But like I said, Im here for the ride.
