05x10 - The Cord

[bunniefuu]

Previously on "Bates Motel"...

It's like there's a cord between our hearts.

It's you and me. It's always been you and me.

We belong to each other, and I don't ever want to live in a world without you.

( grunts )

( slashing )

( gagging )

We pulled two bodies out of Falls Lake a couple days ago.

We're charging you additionally with the murders of Jim Blackwell and Audrey Ellis.

Norman is nice... okay, he's kind, he's a good person...

but he just... he has another side to him.

You know, I don't... I don't know what you'd call it, maybe multiple personalities or something, but he... he changes.

( sobbing )

( lock buzzes )

( gates clink )

I'm coming for you when you least expect it.

Hello, Norman.

All right. Get him out.

And get in the back.

What do you want with us, Alex?

You're gonna take me to her body.

How much further?

There's a turn, then there's a little more of a drive, and then there's a little walk.

But we are getting close, Alex.

( sobbing ) No.

Alex.

Please don't k*ll me. Please.

See what you've done now on your little quest for stupid vengeance?

She's innocent.

( sobbing )

Stop it. Stop crying.

Alex, what happened to you?

I don't understand any of this.

This isn't about you, Regina.

But you've lost your mind.

Jesus, I haven't lost my mind!

That's debatable.

Follow the road.

It... it's gonna take you back to the main highway.

Okay? I can't give you your phone right now, but someone'll find you in a few hours.

I might die of hypothermia.

Walk fast.

You got a good coat on. You'll be fine. Go.

This isn't who you are, Alex.

Go before I change my mind!

Get out. Get out.

You're riding up front from now on. Come on.

Okay, how much farther up the road?

Okay? Specifically.

Uh... maybe 10 minutes?

Maybe...

I'm lying.

♪ ♪

Come on in.

What's going on?

Your brother Norman was kidnapped from the police station by Alex Romero.

How the hell did you let that happen?

He also took our office manager, Regina, took her hostage, so this isn't just about Norman.

Sit down.

Do you have any idea where Romero could take Norman?

You want my honest opinion?

He took him somewhere to k*ll him.

Okay, now, I-I don't know if that's... if that's the woods or if that's Norma's grave, I...

I don't know.

This is in... this is insane.

Norman is sick, okay?

He needs psychiatric help.

Did you forget your brother has been charged with multiple murders?

What, so... so that means, you know, you don't care if something happens to him?

The person I care about the most is Regina Worth, and I'm gonna do whatever it takes to get her back safe.

You better not let anything happen to him.

He's a suspect. He hasn't even been convicted.

( car engine rumbling )

( eerie music )

Right here.

I think we should...

Norman?

It's not for you to be here.

It's... let me deal with this, okay, Norman?

Look, I don't know what's going on, but you do not want to mess with me right now, Norman.

Would it shock you to know that I'm not Norman?

That he isn't here and that you can't touch him?

Spare me your bullshit. Get out of the car.

Oh, you're above it all, are you?

And why should I tell you where she is if you're only gonna k*ll me anyway?

Did you think about that, Sheriff Lonely Heart?

Listen to me, you piece of sh1t.

I-I don't know what kind of sick f*ck digs his mother's body out of a grave and moves it around, okay, and I don't want to know about it or what you did to it.

All I can tell you is, I can sh**t you once I find her, and I can make it quick and clean, or I can make you suffer for days, and believe me, I got ideas.
