Further proof that Norma and Romero are meant to be: their shared disdain of Gunner's name.

Yeah, I should have clarified any man who's relevant to the plot.:P I guess it's just 3/4ths of the cast who've been drawn into her crazy orbit.

I feel like the therapist has done all he can plot-wise. Fingers crossed that all he has left to do is die.

Dylan and Norma have come a long way, but their relationship was seriously messed up for the first season and most of the second. They're more like mother/son now, but it was up in the air there for a while.

Was anyone else hoping that Norman would actually kill the creepy therapist dude? And why the heck did everyone (aside from Norman, even though his reasons are sketchy) accept Caleb so easily? Even Emma gave him a hug?? This show has had some crazy plotlines but this may actually take the cake for me.

Clothing aside, can we all agree that Lulu is the prettiest FF character? Followed by Quistis.

Norma also seems unimpressed/repulsed by him, like she's counting down the seconds until he leaves her alone.

I find it hilarious and amazing how threatening or challenging Norma in any way results in death on this show.

WHAT HAVE WE, AS A SOCIETY, DONE TO DESERVE THE GIFT THAT IS VERA FARMIGA?

First being namedropped in a couple of recent popular songs, now this. Michelle Pfeiffer is going places.

I would be all for this. Vera plays Mother so delightfully creepy and seductive. Freddie Highmore still has room to grow as a performer, but I think he can pull off a Norman closer to how he is in the movie after a couple more seasons under his belt.

I don't think they've explicitly said something, but everyone's sort of assumed that it's gonna end with Norma's murder.

Dylan and Norma's relationship is actually my favorite on the show, so I hope this doesn't fracture what they have beyond repair. Compare where they are now to how they used to be way back in season one (that iconic fight by the foyer!!), and there's a world of difference. I also don't think that Norma's completely…

Also, I know that chemistry is subjective (and has caused many an internet argument), but I don't really see any romantic "spark" between them.

That's how I remembered she knew, as well! Rooting for her and Dylan to escape the Bates' black hole and live the rest of their lives in peace.:(

Wouldn't he be Norma's high school boyfriend? If he ever stops by White Pine Bay, it would cause so much drama. And to that I say: bring it on.

I completely forgot for a moment that Emma knows Caleb sexually abused Norma, too. That's definitely gonna come back and bite everybody in the ass.

Oh god, if Dylan and Caleb's storyline is that Dylan's slowly becoming taken with his duncle DESPITE HIS MISGIVINGS, I'm gonna barf. And Dylan's always been best when interacting with Norma or Norman, so these last two episodes have been a dud when it comes to his scenes.

No matter how shoddy the set-up, I do think that they're trying for a Claire-as-eventual-president storyline. Apparently people love her now, and her sitting on the Oval Office desk wasn't very subtle.

This just reminds me that we lost Zhaan on Farscape for this very reason.:(
