“Meltdown”

All the bad things happen on Bates Motel when someone has had sex.

I wonder if that is just a coincidence or if there is an underlying message there.

Norma had some sorrow sex in this episode with George, and Norman is attacked with what looked like chloroform and some big muscular dude. Most likely someone in the employ of Nick Ford.

Romero is in the area at the time so I wonder if he is going to be the hero in this case. Romero confronted Norman about having sex with Miss Watson and Norman ran from him, clearly because he did not remember it since it happened in a blackout. Poor Norman really needs mental help and Norma just can’t bring herself to do it.

Dylan and Nick Ford’s meeting was tense too as Nick said the drug war could end if Dylan would just take care of Zane Morgan. Dylan seemingly got the okay to do so from Zane’s sister and big boss Jodi, which is really sad. Even though Zane is out of his mind and making a ton of bad decisions, it is his sister.

There is only two more episodes in season two so I expect things to really pick up over the next couple of episodes. Not that this show has been slow… it has not, but this feels as if things are going to elevate from here.
