After they are wed, Alex declares he must move into the Bates home (to make it look legit). Norma puts up a fight but we know she cant stand to be alone. Norman is going to be VERY unhappy when he finds out. Having a cop in the house will definitely slow down his ability to dispose of bodies.
Alex is actually very good for Norma. He's patient and tolerates her craziness. And Norma deserves a little happiness before she's killed by Mother. The episode title ("Til Death Do Us Part") reminds us of what will eventually happen to the couple.
We later see FWB Rebecca vat Alex's house. She works at the bank and previously laundered money for the now missing Bob Paris. Rebecca is worried about being connected to the illegal activity. Romero tells her to cover her tracks and play it cool. She makes a pass at Alex. He rebukes her saying he's biw married. Did she steal the drug money Alex took from Bob? That would be bad since part of it is for Norman's hospital stay. Nope, it's all still safely concealed. Romero takes the money over to Norma's and hides it in the basement. Norman wont like anyone else in his space. Heads will roll.
Dylan is the calming force in the crazy Bates family. He seems genuinely happy that Norma is marrying. He also says "you're doing the right thing for him (meaning Norman)". Will Dylan and Emma be the two characters left standing at the end of this show?
Favorite Quotes"
- "Can you lean into me a little?"- Romero asking Norma to help make their marriage look legit.
- "Sooner or later I'll break my neck on those stupid stairs."-Norma. We know that Norman actually kills Norma and her "lover" via some poisoned tea.
- "You have painted me into a corner that I cannot get out of and I've never been so disappointed in anyone."- Norman to Norma when she visits him in the hospital.
- "I was just hiding a bunch of money down here."- Romero to Norma. She doesnt know he was telling the truth.
- "I have reason to believe that my mother is insane and might be killing people."- Norman to Dr Edwards.
Grade: 4 1/2 Monsters (out of 5). A bittersweet episode for Norma and Alex (ship name Normero). I've grown quite fond of them both. It's sad to think of what will eventually become of the couple.
