So I’ve been watching “Bates Motel” season 2, but until last night’s 3rd episode I wasn’t that impressed. I mean did we really need two episodes of Bailey killing her father’s killing and having to escape town? After an amazing first season, I began to worry without the mystery of the hotel and the girl in the room that perhaps there wasn’t much else for the show to really do except start playing out Norma’s insanity issues.

Fortunately last night’s episode was great. Norma’s brother Caleb returned to town, and we finally got some insight into her past. We knew she had told Norman that her brother raped her, which is why she didn’t talk about her past at all. Caleb contacted Dylan and began planting all kind of lies in his head about how his and Norma’s father abused them both, and he didn’t do anything to protect Norma. Dylan was furious at Norma for ostracizing her brother as she does everyone else . . . until it came out that Caleb was in fact Dylan’s father. Yup, he’s an incest baby!

Norman meanwhile made some new friends at school, and Mrs. Watson’s father was out to seemingly find out what really happened to his daughter, and became Norma’s new BFF in town. Oh brother! That won’t go over well for Norman . . .
