"Bates Motel" Season 3 will return on air in just a couple of weeks. A&E Television, the TV producers of the show, aims to explore further the relationship of Norman with his beloved mother Norma in this season.
In a recently released teaser trailer for "Bates Motel" Season 3, viewers will get to see the iconic "Peephole" and "Rocking Chair" in the "Psycho", the Alfred Hitchcock movie where the show was based on. These two icons serve as the symbol that things will get darker for Norman, played by Freddie Highmore, in the upcoming season. The trailer also shows Norma, portrayed by Vera Farmiga, and Norman in a dreamlike interrogation room wherein Norman's face is merging with his mother. Reports suggest that it indicates the complete transformation of Norman into a full-blown "Psychopath" in the show.
The official synopsis, according to a report, reveals that the relationship between Norma and Norman are getting strained and Norma is getting closer to Dylan, Norman's brother, and Sheriff Romero. It was also reported that Norman will be getting more "blackouts" this season as he grows jealous of his mother getting close with other person. The presence of the "Rocking Chair" and "Peephole" could also signify Norma's death in this season since the two icons indicate Norman's psychological criminal propensity in Alfred Hitchock's classic movie.
Other theories for the upcoming Season 3 of Bates Motel includes the "Peephole" being used by Norman to "spy" on his mother as she gets close with Sheriff Romero. He may also use it on female guest as suggested by one of the trailers in the upcoming season. This may lead Norma to arouse the "mother" inside him and become the "Psychopath" that fans know in the "Psycho" movie. Norman's increased interest on his taxidermy hobby may also indicate that things are going south in his head.
"Bates Motel" Season 3 returns on air with its premiere episode on March 9 at A&E. Fans of the mystery-thriller show will get to know more about Norman as he is slowly consumed by "mother" from the inside before turning up as the complete psychopath in the Alfred Hitchcock's "Psycho" movie.
