Psycho III

         Maureen Coyle has a room at St. Matthew's Hospital. Norman Bates, the sheriff and Tracey Venable all are waiting in the lobby while Father Brian is in the room talking to Maureen. Norman goes in next and offers her a place to stay, F O C, when she gets out. She says, "I left the bathroom in a terrible mess." Norman says, "I've seen it worse." He's evidentaly remembering when he killed Janet Leigh in Psycho I. They talk and he brings up the oft used phrase, "We all go a little mad sometimes." She says, "Thanks for being so kind," and Norman laughs because he intended to stab her to death like he did Janet Leigh. He continues to laugh as he walks out of the hospital room and shuts the door.

         He leaves her room and walks into the next movie set which is his mother's bedroom. Norman says, "I'm glad she didn't die," to his mother and she, (he), replies, "She will." We have to remember in all of these movies that both Norman and his mother are coming from the same brain - Norman's.

         When she gets back to the motel and her room #1 she notices that Norman has had her lavender dress cleaned and pressed. She thanks Norman and he replies that conservative clothes never go out of style. He also says that she would look good in that dress that evening. In the meantime four of the motel rooms have been occupied by Central High cheerleaders and supporters. Business seems to have picked up quite a bit. These supporters are noisy for the rest of the movie.

         Norman goes up to his mother's bedroom and talks to her, (himself.) Mother says, If this little whore is going to bother him, he should get rid of her. She asks Norman if he is ashamed of her. He says that he isn't.

         As nighttime comes Norman rents a taxicab and they both go out to a nightclub. They toast each other time and time again and then Norman asks her if she wants to dance. She says no but Norman says he'll show her how. He says his mother taught him how. He shows her the basic box step and they continue dancing the night away.  to be continued.
