Episode 4 "Trust Me" picks up right where episode 3 left off-- with Norman discovering a girl in Shelby's basement. What we didn't see last time was that Dylan helped Norman escape from the house by knocking on the front door and distracting Shelby. Norman tells Norma about the girl in the basement. She doesn't believe him and says he's had hallucinations for some time. The next night after a little lovin' with Shelby, Norma goes into the basement and of course there is no one to be found. In other goings on:
- Shelby takes Norman fishing. Dude just cause you're doing the humpy with my mother doesn't mean I wan to hang out with you.
- Dead Keith's hand is discovered by the police. Oh dear.
- Norman gets lucky with Bradley. What's with all the floating white sheets during that scene? Was that supposed to be romantic? Cause it wasn't. And I still don't trust that girl.
- Norman should not have told Dylan what happened to Dead Keith. I don't trust him either.
- Norma gets a little crazy when they can't get into the dump where the old carpet was taken. She is hanging from the fence screaming. She again goes bat shit on Dylan when he says Norman is at a girl's house. I wasn't sure what was going to happen after that fight. It was uncomfortable. I wouldn't have been surprised if they didn't kiss each other since this family has no boundaries. Luckily just then the police arrive to arrest Norma for murder.

Episode 4 "Trust Me"
After Norman sees the girl in Deputy Shelby's basement, the Deputy gets home. Dylan follows Norman and sees him break in the house so he rings the doorbell to distract Zack to give him more time to escape. Norman does escape without being caught but leaves the light on. Dylan asked Norman about the break-in but Norman denied it happened. Norman tries to see Emma at her house but her father tells him that she is sick; the father also tells Norman that Emma was a crush on him and tells him to be decent to her; Norman tells the father he is decent. Later, Norman bonds with Bradley as she griefs over the loss of her father. Norma continues her relationship with Shelby. Dylan sees them leaving a room after sex and Shelby finds out that Dylan is her son. Norman tells Norma he went to get the belt from Shelby's house after she told him to do so. Norma tells him he imagines stuff that doesn't happen sometimes. She doesn't seem to believe him when he tells her about the imprisoned girl either, but next time she's over at Shelby's house she sneaks down to the basement to look for herself. Everything incriminating is gone. Shelby finds her snooping in the basement. Shelby wants to take Norman fishing but he tells his mom he doesn't want to go; she makes him though. Shelby tells Norman he wants them to trust each other and that he wants to take care of them. The fishing trip is cut shot when Zack gets a work-related call over finding a hand of Keith Summers. Norma is picked up for questions but she denies any involvement. Norma is worried they'll find the old motel carpet and match the fibers. Norman tells Dylan the entire story and Dylan agrees to help him then both bond. He also convinces Norman to go see Bradley at her house late at night; they end up having sex. When Norma finds out from Dylan that Norman is out with a girl she becomes very upset, with Dylan confronting her about her behavior, stating that he knows enough of what she has done, giving him the right to take Norman away from her to stay with him. As the episode closes, Norma is arrested for the murder of Keith Summers.
Grade: 4 Monsters (out of 5). Some people have commented that this episode was slow (which it was) but I still love this crazy show.
