Bates Motel s03e10 Episode Script

Unconscious

Previously on Bates Motel Norman? No one will see the car here.
So, yeah, you can sleep at the motel.
We don't have any guests.
Okay, you're an informant.
You set us up.
You killed him.
No, I almost killed him.
I wanted to.
I'll go stay on that logging road that runs up along the ridge.
You go ahead, and you give it to them.
I will give you the flash drive, but you have to give me the assurance that you won't bring Norman into this.
You don't get to call the shots anymore, Norma.
Where's the stupid piece of computer gear that's ruining my life? I turned it over to the DEA.
You did what? I'm sick of of trying to make all of this shit work.
I'm screwed.
I'm I'm, like I'm totally screwed.
How could you do that to me? I'm gonna leave tomorrow.
You want to come with me? Norman? What are you gonna do about that girl in there? I know what you want to do.
It's not like that, Mother.
She's she's just in trouble.
Come on, let's go to the house.
Of course, Mother.
Where did this come from? Caleb left it for you.
He didn't say why? No, he just said, "Give this to Dylan," and I didn't ask him to explain it.
After all that shit.
People are generally disappointing, honey.
They can't help it.
And you can't let it kill you.
Yeah.
Okay.
I'm gonna look at this Pineview place today.
What's that? It's this place that That can help people with with mental issues.
Okay.
It's a bit of a drive, so I'm I'm just gonna get dressed and and head out.
Okay, okay, quiet down.
We got a big day ahead of us, people.
Everyone clear on your assignments? Good.
We're gonna hit Bob Paris at exactly 2130, and, Russell, your team's gonna take Decatur North, here to the Paris residence.
This is the culmination of the entire op.
Lots of time and money have gone into this, so let's not mess it up.
Em? Emma? Yeah, I'm in here, Dad.
I just got a call from Portland All Saints Hospital.
It looks like they may have found a set of lungs.
They're just confirming the family are willing to donate them, but in all likelihood they are.
We'll know for sure in the next few hours.
Emma.
This is it.
How did I get to the top of the list so fast? My guess is you're the best match for these lungs.
Come on, you need to get ready in case this happens.
Hey.
Don't worry, okay? It's gonna be fine.
This is exciting.
I'm gonna go and get my stuff.
Bradley? Good morning.
Can I help you? Hi, yes.
Um, I was wondering if I could get some information about your facility.
Yes, of course.
Not a problem.
Just wait one minute, honey.
The patient you're inquiring for, uh, what is his or her diagnosis? Well, uh, he uh, well, it's it's aitnclear.
You know, one of the things I am interested in - is getting a full diagnosis.
- Mm-hmm.
You know, mental problems are complicated.
Of course you know that.
Yes.
Always.
Who's the referring doctor? Um, I I just read about your place, and I drove out here myself.
And the patient is your ? Is my son.
Mm.
Can I ask you a few questions? Of course.
I'm just thinking about it, I haven't made any decisions yet, you know.
It's actually very hard to, uh, to actually consider doing this, um But how how often can you visit? We have very liberal visitation policies.
As you can see, a lot of our guests have plenty of access to their families.
Good, h-he and I are The patient We're very close.
Like I said, in almost all cases, it isn't a problem.
Good.
And, uh W-w What does this olace costs? We deal directlyit wh your insurance company.
We have case officers who will handle all of that for you.
Uh, insurance, of course, but, um, just, like, what does this place cost a day? That depends greatly on the specific condition being treated.
Oh, yeah, yeah but I mean, like, ball park.
There is no one number.
No range of cost? I mean, I you are dressed very nicely to sell me on this place, but you you're, like, not gonna tell me how much it'd cost me? Our minimum charge is $529 a night.
That's room and board.
Treatment costs are all on top of that.
For doctors, tests, and therapies.
For most patients, it ranges from about $20 to $40,000 a month.
The key, like I said, is your insurance.
Most carriers can negotiate a significant discount off of those numbers.
But to really answer your question, we'd need to have a doctor.
And a plan of treatment.
This is Caleb.
Leave a message.
What the hell, Caleb? Huh? You what, you thought it was a good idea to just leave without telling me? Like like maybe I wouldn't just, you know, notice or something? Well, guess what? I noticed.
So go to hell.
Yeah, we're ready.
We can be there in 90 minutes.
As soon as you made the decision.
Yes, but it's a chance.
It's all we've ever wanted.
I understand.
Yes, I'll make sure she does too.
Thank you so much.
Thank you, bye.
- Yeah, hello? - Dylan, it's Will Decody.
Will, what's going on? Have you heard from Emma? Uh, no, why? What's the matter? No, it's good news.
We just heard.
A set of lungs have become available.
We gotta get down to Portland as soon as possible.
Emma knows this, I've told her, but she's gone off somewhere.
I think she's worried and scared.
Have you any idea where she'd be? Did you check the motel? Yeah, she's not there.
I I'll try and find her.
Please.
I'm worried if we miss this opportunity, she won't get another chance.
I'll let you know.
- Hi.
- Hi.
You're probably wondering why I'm here.
Not so much, no.
Your dad told me.
You need to get down to Portland.
He said you disappeared.
He's worried about you.
I know he's in a tough spot, he has to tell me it's the right thing to do because there's no sensible reason to say no to it, I just I just don't want to die.
It's as simple as that.
Yeah, but it it isn't Isn't that the whole point of having the surgery? No transplants are not a given.
People reject organs every day.
Lungs are especially tricky.
You know, some person is brain dead on a ventilator and we're all acting like, "Oh, great, just put those lungs into Emma.
" It doesn't work like that.
What if I'm not a good match? That's more likely to happen than not.
Then I've wasted this poor dead person's lungs, and whatever little bit of life I have left here on this earth.
Yeah, but, I mean people do have these surgeries.
You know, they they survive, they they do go on to extend their lives.
Yeah, that is true, but I don't want to spend the rest of my life being poked and prodded and analyzed and evaluated.
Always living with the constant threat every day that my body will somehow turn on me and start to reject the lungs.
Now at least at least this way, I can I can just live in denial.
It's not imminent.
It's not like I'm up against this question every day.
Will my body not screw me over today, you know? I just you know, I want to have some control - over my life.
- Emma Emma, come on.
No, don't I look ridiculous when I cry.
Look, you're the least ridiculous person that I've ever known.
Y-you you're wiser than than most people twice your age, and you're the bravest person that I know.
You're a freaking warrior.
Um What were we talking about? I have no idea.
Hey, you can, uh, you can always think of me as being the guy who hit on you right before you had a lung transplant.
Are you hitting on me? Well, if you don't know, then I'm doing a pretty shitty job.
I guess I'm getting this dumb lung transplant, aren't I? You have to.
Don't pressure me or anything.
But you do have to.
I know.
Ah, you're here.
I've been doing some math.
I think I'm about $30,000 with the jewelery.
I can sell, $15,000 in cash.
** That's where you were? All this stuff has bought my dad's drug money, so I think it's fair game.
We should leave soon.
I bought us some supplies for the road.
Some clothes and toothpaste.
Yeah, okay.
Can you be ready to go tonight? Hmm? Sneak out after your mom's asleep? Norman, please.
You said yourself you're afraid of your mom, that you want to leave.
You're legally an adult.
You can do whatever you want.
Please come with me.
I just don't know how I can leave her.
Oh.
Norman.
We can do this.
We have money now.
We can do this.
It's my mom.
I have to go.
I'm leaving after dark.
You know where to find me if you change your mind.
- Hey, Mom.
- Hi.
- Where have you been? - I was running some errands.
- Where were you? - Just down in the office.
And I just ran up the stairs 'cause I just felt like it.
Can I talk to you for a minute? Okay, come on.
I'm worried about you.
I know.
I mean, you know, the black outs are getting worse.
Yeah, but we have it under control, okay? You know, I don't go to school anymore, I don't drive, it's I'm really just mostly here.
I know, but I think that you need help.
Help that I cannot give you.
What sort of help? You don't mean like James? - No.
- No.
Honey, that was That was, like, that was stupid.
That was It was just grasping at straws.
I mean real doctors.
I'm not always gonna be in this world, Norman.
Okay, you're gonna out-live me.
And I want you to be safe.
There are things that we can do.
There's, um, there's therapy, there's medications.
You know, I mean, I We never really looked into it.
It's I think it's it's it's It's something that I have been very scared to do, but I am more scared not to.
These places can help us.
They'll help.
Places? It's it's not like that, Norman.
It's not it's not what you're thinking.
They're not horrible, these places, they're actually very pretty.
- They're very nice.
- You've been to one? That's where I went today.
I'm glad that we had this talk of yours.
I see where we stand.
You've given up on me.
That's not true.
Norman, it's exactly the opposite.
I'm trying to help you.
Norman? I I'm not here to apologize.
I did what I felt was the right thing, and it was the right thing, and I stand by it.
Okay, thanks for coming by and telling me that.
I am sorry that I That I couldn't protect you.
If I could change that, I would, but I can't.
I-it's it's done, it's in motion.
And I wish it was different.
It's not your fault, Alex.
It's bigger than us.
It was my fault, anyway.
I tried to hide it.
You know but now it's coming out, and it's just too much to shove away.
I'm not gonna lie, I'm so scared.
He's my son, and he's broken.
And he is the dearest boy that ever lived, and I just can't bear it if Bob Paris has this thing investigated, if they take him away.
If they put him in prison just for defending me.
You know, it will kill me.
But I you know, in some way, I don't even care anymore.
You know, maybe fate wins here.
We're all doomed in the end, right? Yeah, maybe.
Probably.
I'm gonna go to the house.
But thank you very much for stopping by.
All units, button up.
We're ten minutes now from the Paris house.
Roger that, sir.
- Hello? - It's Alex.
You better throw some shit in a bag and get the hell out of there.
The DEA's on their way to your house right now to arrest you.
I'm assuming you're still there.
- I'm here.
- You got less than 10 minutes.
Why are you telling me this? Because, Bob, you getting arrested is not in my best interest.
Federal Agents! We have a warrant! Go, go, go, go.
House seems clear.
Level clear.
Agent Babbitt, all clear.
Wait a minute, what do you mean, all clear? Did you did you clear the perimeter? - Yes, ma'am.
- Nobody, no one? Up and down, no one.
Damn it.
Hello, Bob.
Alex? You scared the living hell out of me.
No, no don't, don't, don't.
Don't, I'll put three bullets in you before you ever get your hands on that pistol.
Reach for it with just your thumb and forefinger.
Two fingers only, lift it out of your pocket.
Okay, I I see any other fingers uncurled, Bob, I'm gonna shoot you.
Go on, two fingers.
What you got there? Run money and fake passports? Pretty much.
How'd you know about this place? Maybe about three years ago, I ran into Rick Hogshead down at the diner.
We were shooting the shit, and he told me he sold you his fishing boat.
You know, it was one of those, um moments where you you know, you kind of reflect on your life, you know, 'cause I had always loved fishing, but I never could afford a boat like this.
You know, not on a sheriff's salary.
So I, uh, I found myself wondering, why was I the only guy not benefitting from all of the money floating around in this town? Coming with me? No, that's not the way it's gonna go.
I thought you were gonna let me leave town.
Look, the the moment I step off this dock, I'm a new person with a new name, and I have no reason ever, ever, to say anything to anybody about my former life, especially about that wacko Norma Bates and her kid.
The truth is, you're not reliable.
You can change your name, but you can't change who you are.
I guess none of us can change who we are.
I mean, we can pretend to be someone else, someone who's doing things for the right reason.
What whatever the words are that come out of your mouth, Bob, you still killed those two girls.
Tell yourself whatever you need to, Alex.
We both know why you're doing this, and it isn't about those girls.
You know, right now, you are more like your dad than you ever have been.
This is about you and what you want.
How does that feel? To have spent your whole life trying to get away from someone you hate, only to turn into them.
Norman? What's going on? Nothing.
What are you doing? I am leaving.
- You're leaving? - Uh-huh.
Hey where are you going all by yourself? Why do you assume that it's all by myself? Where are you going? Who are you going with? Will you please just stop talking to me like I'm insane? Calm down.
Maybe you can get the mental institution on the phone - and they can come early.
- Norman Mother, this may be hard for you to believe, okay, but I don't need you.
In many ways, I just think we've been horrible for each other.
Uh-huh, I I love you, yes, I will always love you, but if I've become too much of a burden for you, I I just don't think we're good together.
I don't think that we're healthy.
Okay, I just think it would be for the best that we separate.
Okay, Norman, so we'll separate, but you don't have to leave.
God, just stop talking to me like that, okay? There is someone there's this physical human being that's waiting for me and we're leaving together.
- Norman.
- Just stop patronizing me! You're awful! - I'm leaving with Bradley.
- Who is Bradley? What are you talking about? Mother, there really is something wrong with you.
We talked about it.
Bradley Martin, remember outside the motel? Or were you just trying to drive me even more insane? Norman, Bradley Martin is dead.
She committed suicide.
Well then, how do you think she's in the motel? Huh? She can't be dead.
Well, you knew she was there.
You can't deny that.
Okay, I am not letting you leave this house! Oh! Norman? Norman, please, stop.
I'm sorry Dylan, come home as fast as you can.
Norman has completely gone out of his mind.
And I'm just scared of him.
I need your help.
Dylan.
- Norma.
- He's out of his mind.
I just mentioned the institution, he went crazy, he said he was leaving.
I had to stop him.
I knocked him out and locked him up in the basement.
Norman? Norman? He's not down here.
Oh, my God, he got out.
Where did he say he was going? I it's insane, Dylan.
He said he was leaving with Bradley Martin.
She's dead.
He's completely lost touch with reality.
What do we do? Um Bradley Martin isn't dead.
What are you talking about? I mean, it didn't really happen.
What didn't happen? She she was in trouble, and so she faked her suicide so she could disappear and get off the radar.
I drove her to the bus station when she left town.
So Norman could actually be running away with her? Yeah, I mean, it's possible, but it it's also true that he sees shit that isn't really there.
Okay, we gotta go find him.
Thanks for coming back for me.
Yeah.
I'm really happy you're coming with me.
So where should we go? Let's just see how long the car lasts.
Where we end up.
This is the right thing to do, Norman.
I have a really good feeling.
I'm really proud of you for getting out of there.
Huh? For leaving your mom.
I need to talk to Bradley.
No.
No, you need to leave.
What? I'm not leaving until I talk to Bradley.
- And then you'll go? - Sure.
Mother would like to talk to you.
What are you talking about? Pull over.
What? Norman! Did you really think you'd be able to lure Norman away from me with that hot little sex kitten routine of yours? What are you talking about? Don't Bradley, don't try and play me for a fool.
I practically invented this routine.
Norman! Stop it! Shut up, you dumb bitch! Shut up! What the hell were you thinking? No one will ever get between me and my son.
Mother, what have you done? Mother? What have you done? I'm sorry, Bradley.
I'm so sorry she did this to you.
Norman, she was a mess.
I did her a favor.
Poor girl was on a death wish.
And more importantly, she was gonna take you away from me, right? That was the plan? I could never let that happen.
You would have died out there in the world.
I would have died.
We belong together.
There's a cord between our hearts.
Do you remember? Come here, honey.
Oh, it's okay.
It's okay.
I will take care of all of this.
Okay, no one will ever know.
It'll be our secret.
But you can't ever tell anyone, okay? You promise? I do.
Then we'll always be together.
Hmm, won't that be nice? Yes, Mother.
Yes, it will.
