So dead shes in a morgue.
But Romero, bless him, is smarter than this.
He still knows Normans somewhat insane, and knows that Norma would never leave like that.

Romero shows up anyway, and hes the last person Norman wants to see.
He lashes out, blaming him for Normas death, telling him he tried to warn him.
He then tells Romero he doesnt want to see him anywhere, and thats when Romero completely loses it.
Normas dead, right?
So why does it matter so much if Romero stays away?
Im glad Romero realizes Normans unhinged, but sadly, that doesnt help much.
Norman comes home and calls out for his mother… who isnt there.
Romero, meanwhile, goes to the morgue.
At the funeral home, Norman meets with Willcock and his son.
He asks to see her and is allowed, on the promise he wont get upset.
We all know where this is going, right?
Normans smooth, but hes not that smooth.
A distraught Norman comes home and hears the piano playing and runs up the stairs excitedly.
But theres no Norma and no piano, just a dark and empty house.
Dylan calls from Seattle to offer condolences, telling his brother hes there if he needs him.
And whaddya know, Norman has a heart hes actually affected by Dylans words.
Its both sad and haunting at the same time.
Romero shows up soon after and Norman, already volatile, tells him he needs to leave.
Thats bad, but then he gives him back the ring he took from Norma and Romeros had enough.
Norma would be so proud of your rage, Romero!
(Just throw in a few expletives and youll carry on her tradition wonderfully.)
(And dont think that wont be on his mind next season.
Romeros going on a murder revenge rampage for sure.)
Before he can get anywhere, however, hes cornered and charged for perjury.
This is not a good day for Romero.
This hasnt been a good fewweeksfor Romero.
Someone give Romero a hug.
Norman, predictably, is not doing well with his acceptance of Normas death.
You cant just leave me here alone in this abyss where I cant find you!
What a kind serial killer Norman is!
But when he finally gets her eyes open, theyre lifeless and glassy, and it freaks Norman out.
The moment is interrupted by Chick, who comes by with food and to offer his condolences.
And when he gets downstairs, hes relieved to find his dreams and hopes have come true.
So begins the questions.
Would the showreallykill its two main characters?
Will Romeros new goal be killing Norman?
(I vote yes.)
Will anyone ever wise up to Normans actions?
Will Dylan ever find out about Normas death?
These story lines wouldnt work without them, and I hope their talent continues to be recognized.
