Bates Motel Season 3 Promo: It's Not Normal, It's Norman

at .

It's not normal!!

No, Norma, it's not normal. It's Norman!

It's hard to watch poor Norma as she reacts to the incredibly odd son she has raised, but she has always known he's not normal and her actions do anything but promote normalcy, despite her best intentions. If seeing them in bed together doesn't get your head spinning, what will?

In the latest trailer for Bates Motel Season 3, we get a glimpse of Norman falling even deeper off the dark ledge of insanity. Check it out.

Does Norman really like woman as much as he thinks? All evidence points to no. Sniffing their undergarments then killing them means something, but like? Hmmm.

Summer is over and it's time for Norman to return to school, something that sends him into waves of panic after a period of closeness with his mother. Images of Miss Watson return to Norman, forcing Norma to question what really happened that night, and she turns to Dylan for advice on handling Norman.

Norman doesn't like to share and the new relationship between Norma and Dylan will trigger jealousy. It looks like things get pretty heated, and Norma's brother, Caleb, is hanging around town to complicate matters.

It's sure to be one hell of a season as Norman slowly becomes the man we all know he's mean to be.
