This is the episode fans of the show have expected since the beginning and it definitely delivered, playing out differently than everyone expected.
To start it off, Dylan and Emma finally learn the thing that I knew would come back to bite them in the midst of their happiness and comfort. Norma is dead, and Dylan will realize the truth about the matter if he hasn't already. No sign Romero or Chick in this episode, as there was to many other things going on with Norman that deserve the entire runtime of this week's episode.
The episode mainly revolves around Marion Crane, (played by Rihanna) being at the Bates Motel, as well as Norman struggling to deal with the fake Norma he has created in his mind. It was awesome to finally see the truth revealed to himself, as fake Norma tells him what has been done for his own "protection." On the other end, both of Sam's relationships fall apart and he is left alone, waiting for Marion at the Bates Motel. The twist at the end is Sam being killed in the famous shower scene, as opposed to Marion. Norman tries his best to accept he's crazy and dismiss Norma, who continuously steps into his life. As you could guess it doesn't work. After setting up a near frame for frame remake of the original psycho shower scene with Marion, Sam gets the punishment at the end of the episode, leaving Norman with a bloody mess. You can see the terror in his eyes as he asks, "Mother, what have I done?"
This episode amazing start to finish. Norman has now concioussly killed someone, marking the beginning of the end. These last four epsiodes of Bates Motel are sure to be a suspenseful ride, and I can't wait to see what happens next. 10/10
