They didn't understand why Psycho was so great !
This could be great but it's stupid
Actors are good : Norma and Norman great but a lot of things just doesn't fit
I did not like Marion because of the classic shower scene, I think that it distorted the classic, but it's part of it, for me the best episode is still "Norma Louise" (¨6) of the third season, however the 4 and 5 seasons are the best ! I think now it has become less interesting the series, a pity has never been a series as good as Hannibal, but came in a crescent, now disappointed!
Who has not seen Psycho? If you are one of those people maybe this chapter is not so shocking, or in any case maybe it's much more. "Marion" marks a before and after in Bates Motel, now there is a free way for this series, that although it had already created its own personality from the beginning, now if it marks an outline in which it shouts in the face "This not Is Pshyco. "And it's fine, it's very well since it faithfully respects the original material, but doesn't want to be a copy of this, Norman Bates's story is a rather rich and interesting, and since last season have developed more the concept, Introducing ourselves to what this disorder and Norman's mind implies. Bates Motel has taken a very big risk in this chapter, but a necessary risk, we can appreciate the value of the series and enjoy the same way the shower scene because if, that scene is here, picture to picture, but you have to know something, if you thought that the plot twist of Norma's death was big, wait to see this.
Getting closer to the finale Bates Motel maintains an extraordinary level, from all point of views.
The famous scene of the classic Hitchcock's movie is just floating around, waiting to materialize on the screen. And when it does it's different but equally powerful, also because it comes along significant character development.
A great episode, of an excellent series.

The episode I've been waiting for! Brilliantly done with a twist that will leave you cheering! Faithfully following the master I thought I knew what was coming. I was tricked but knew they had to move in a different direction. Then, sweet payment for the wait! Best season ever!

- TriviaAs Norman checks Marion into her room, he tells her about the stationery with the motel name on it, using the same dialogue from Psycho (1960).
- GoofsIn the article Emma is reading about Norma's death, Norman's age is given as 18. However in an earlier episode, when we see Norma and Norman's joint gravestone, it gives Norma's year of death as 2015 and Norman's year of birth as 1995. That would have made Norman 20 years old, not 18, when his mother died.
- Quotes
Norma Louise Bates: You're mad because I left.
Norman Bates: I'm not mad. Well, except in the British sense of the word, like the Mad Hatter. In that way, I am mad. But the world is full of mad people who function, many of whom are heads of state.
