Psycho II Page #7

Synopsis: Now declared legally sane, Norman Bates is released from a mental institution after spending 22 years in confinement over the protests of Marion Crane's sister Lila Loomis, who insists that he's still a killer and that the court's indifference to his victims by releasing him is a gross miscarriage of justice. Norman returns to his motel and the old Victorian mansion where his troubles started, and history predictably begins to repeat itself.

I was just having

some supper.

Nothing much,

but would you like

to share my

toasted cheese sandwich?

Oh, no, thank you.

It's, uh,

Miss Spool, actually.

Oh.

You were expecting me.

Well, I was...

I was expecting someone.

I just wasn't sure of when.

Tea?

Please.

Milk and sugar?

That would be nice.

So,

are you really my mother?

The name Spool doesn't mean

anything to you?

No. Should it?

It was Norma Bates'

maiden name.

The woman you thought

was your mother was my sister.

I had you when I was

very young out of wedlock.

I couldn't handle

a brand-new baby,

especially, uh,

being by myself.

I had some trouble

and the State put me away

for a while.

That's when

Norma took you in.

You were less

than a year old.

Too young to remember me.

She never mentioned me,

did she?

No, she, uh,

she didn't.

I guess she didn't

want you to know

that you had a mother

who wasn't quite right.

But we know all about that,

don't we, Norman?

Mmm-hmm.

After I got out, you'd already

had your troubles

and been committed.

I decided to wait for you.

Then when I saw

what they were trying to do

to my poor little boy,

I couldn't stand it.

So I followed them,

and one by one...

After all,

you're all I have

in this world.

You're sure you won't

have a sandwich?

Pardon?

I know how it is, Mother.

You've had a long day.

You must be tired.

I'll just put you to bed

and tuck you in for the night.

I'll even say your prayers

for you.

Would you like that?

I'm not sleepy.

Put me in my chair.

Yes, Mother.

And now,

turn me to the window.

I want to keep my eyes

on you.

Make sure

you don't start playing

with filthy girls again.

Yes, Mother.

Good.

Well, what are you

gawking at?

Go downstairs

and open the motel.

What do you expect us

to live on, hope?

No, Mother.

Remember, Norman,

I'm the only who loves you.

Only your mother

truly loves you.
