1. You never did eat your lunch, did you?
Copy !req
2. I better get back to the office.
Copy !req
3. These extended lunch hours
give my boss excess acid.
Copy !req
4. Why don't you call your boss and tell him
Copy !req
5. you're taking the rest of the afternoon off?
Copy !req
6. Friday anyway, and hot.
Copy !req
7. What do I do with my free afternoon?
Walk you to the airport?
Copy !req
8. Well, we could laze around here
a while longer.
Copy !req
9. Checking-out time is 3:00 p.m.
Copy !req
10. Hotels of this sort aren't interested in you
when you come in,
Copy !req
11. but when your time is up...
Copy !req
12. Oh, Sam, I hate having to be with you
in a place like this.
Copy !req
13. I've heard of married couples
who deliberately spend
Copy !req
14. an occasional night in a cheap hotel.
Copy !req
15. When you're married you can do
a lot of things deliberately.
Copy !req
16. You sure talk like a girl who's been married.
Copy !req
17. Oh, Sam, this is the last time.
Copy !req
18. - Yeah? For what?
- For this.
Copy !req
19. For meeting you in secret
so we can be secretive.
Copy !req
20. You come down here on business trips,
and we steal lunch hours.
Copy !req
21. I wish you wouldn't even come.
Copy !req
22. All right. What do we do instead?
Write each other lurid love letters?
Copy !req
23. Oh, I have to go, Sam.
Copy !req
24. - I can come down next week.
- No.
Copy !req
25. Not even just to see you?
Have lunch, in public?
Copy !req
26. Oh, we can see each other.
We can even have dinner.
Copy !req
27. But respectably.
Copy !req
28. In my house,
with my mother's picture on the mantel
Copy !req
29. and my sister helping me broil
a big steak for three.
Copy !req
30. And after the steak,
Copy !req
31. do we send sister to the movies,
turn Mama's picture to the wall?
Copy !req
32. Sam!
Copy !req
33. All right.
Copy !req
34. Marion, whenever it's possible,
I want to see you.
Copy !req
35. And under any circumstances,
even respectability.
Copy !req
36. You make respectability sound disrespectful.
Copy !req
37. Oh, no, I'm all for it.
Copy !req
38. It requires patience, temperance,
a lot of sweating out.
Copy !req
39. Otherwise, though, it's just hard work.
Copy !req
40. But if I can see you and touch you,
even as simply as this, I won't mind.
Copy !req
41. I'm tired of sweating
for people who aren't there.
Copy !req
42. I sweat to pay off my father's debts,
and he's in his grave.
Copy !req
43. I sweat to pay my ex-wife alimony,
Copy !req
44. and she's living on the other side
of the world somewhere.
Copy !req
45. I pay, too.
Copy !req
46. They also pay who meet in hotel rooms.
Copy !req
47. A couple of years and my debts
will be paid off.
Copy !req
48. If she ever remarries, the alimony stops.
Copy !req
49. - I haven't even been married once yet.
- Yeah. But when you do, you'll swing.
Copy !req
50. Oh, Sam, let's get married.
Copy !req
51. Yeah. And live with me in a storeroom
behind a hardware store in Fairvale?
Copy !req
52. We'll have lots of laughs.
I'll tell you what.
Copy !req
53. When I send my ex-wife her alimony,
you can lick the stamps.
Copy !req
54. I'll lick the stamps.
Copy !req
55. Marion, you want to cut this off,
Copy !req
56. go out and find yourself
somebody available?
Copy !req
57. I'm thinking of it.
Copy !req
58. How could you even think a thing like that?
Copy !req
59. - Don't miss your plane.
- Hey, we can leave together, can't we?
Copy !req
60. I'm late and you have to put your shoes on.
Copy !req
61. Is Mr Lowery back from lunch?
Copy !req
62. He's lunching with the man
who's buying the Harris Street property.
Copy !req
63. You know, the oil lease man.
That's why he's late. You got a headache?
Copy !req
64. It'll pass.
Copy !req
65. Headaches are like resolutions,
Copy !req
66. you forget them as soon as they stop hurting.
Copy !req
67. Have you got some aspirin?
I've got something, not aspirin.
Copy !req
68. My mother's doctor gave them to me
the day of my wedding.
Copy !req
69. Teddy was furious when he found out
I'd taken tranquilisers.
Copy !req
70. Any calls?
Copy !req
71. Teddy called me.
My mother called to see if Teddy called.
Copy !req
72. Oh, your sister called to say
she's going to Tucson to do some buying
Copy !req
73. and she'll be gone the whole weekend and...
Copy !req
74. It's as hot as fresh milk.
Copy !req
75. Hey, you girls ought to get your boss
to air condition you up.
Copy !req
76. He can afford it today.
Copy !req
77. Marion, will you get the copies
of that deed ready for Mr Cassidy?
Copy !req
78. - Yes, sir.
- Tomorrow's the day, my sweet little girl.
Copy !req
79. Oh, not you. My daughter.
Copy !req
80. A baby.
Copy !req
81. And tomorrow she stands her sweet self up there
and gets married away from me.
Copy !req
82. I want you to take a look at my baby.
Copy !req
83. Eighteen years old
Copy !req
84. and she never had an unhappy day
in any one of those years.
Copy !req
85. Come on, Tom.
My office is air conditioned.
Copy !req
86. Do you know what I do about unhappiness?
Copy !req
87. I buy it off.
Copy !req
88. Are... Are you unhappy?
Copy !req
89. Not inordinately.
Copy !req
90. I'm buying this house
for my baby's wedding present.
Copy !req
91. $40,000 cash.
Copy !req
92. Now that's not buying happiness.
That's just buying off unhappiness.
Copy !req
93. I never carry more than I can afford to lose.
Copy !req
94. - Count them!
- I declare!
Copy !req
95. I don't. That's how I get to keep it.
Copy !req
96. Tom, a cash transaction of this size
is most irregular.
Copy !req
97. So what? It's my private money.
Copy !req
98. Now it's yours.
Copy !req
99. Suppose we put it in the safe,
Copy !req
100. and then Monday morning
when you're feeling good...
Copy !req
101. Oh, speaking of feeling good,
Copy !req
102. where's that bottle you said
was in your desk?
Copy !req
103. You know, sometimes I can keep
my mouth shut.
Copy !req
104. Lowery, I am dying of thirst-aroonie.
Copy !req
105. I don't even want it in the office
over the weekend.
Copy !req
106. Put it in the safe deposit box in the bank,
Copy !req
107. and we'll get him to give us
a cheque on Monday instead.
Copy !req
108. Yes.
Copy !req
109. He was flirting with you.
Copy !req
110. I guess he must've noticed
my wedding ring.
Copy !req
111. Come in.
Copy !req
112. The copies. Mr Lowery, if you don't mind,
I'd like to go right on home after the bank.
Copy !req
113. - I have a slight...
- You go right on home.
Copy !req
114. Because me and your boss are going out
Copy !req
115. and get ourselves a little drinking done. Right?
Copy !req
116. - Of course. Do you feel ill?
- Just a headache.
Copy !req
117. What you need is a weekend in Las Vegas,
the playground of the world.
Copy !req
118. I'm going to spend this weekend in bed.
Thank you.
Copy !req
119. Aren't you going to take the pills?
They'll knock that headache out.
Copy !req
120. Can't buy off unhappiness with pills.
Copy !req
121. I guess I'll go put this money in the bank
and then go home and sleep it off.
Copy !req
122. Marion, what in the world...
What are you doing up here?
Copy !req
123. Of course I'm glad to see you.
I always am.
Copy !req
124. What is it, Marion?
Copy !req
125. Hold it there.
Copy !req
126. In quite a hurry.
Copy !req
127. Yes. I didn't intend to sleep so long.
Copy !req
128. I almost had an accident last night
from sleepiness,
Copy !req
129. - so I decided to pull over.
- You slept here all night?
Copy !req
130. Yes. As I said,
I couldn't keep my eyes open.
Copy !req
131. There are plenty of motels in this area.
You should've...
Copy !req
132. I mean, just to be safe.
Copy !req
133. I didn't intend to sleep all night.
I just pulled over. Have I broken any laws?
Copy !req
134. - No, ma'am.
- Then I'm free to go?
Copy !req
135. Is anything wrong?
Copy !req
136. Of course not.
Am I acting as if there's something wrong?
Copy !req
137. - Frankly, yes.
- Please, I'd like to go.
Copy !req
138. - Well, is there?
- Is there what?
Copy !req
139. I've told you there's nothing wrong,
Copy !req
140. except that I'm in a hurry
and you're taking up my time.
Copy !req
141. Now, just a moment.
Turn your motor off, please.
Copy !req
142. May I see your licence?
Copy !req
143. - Why?
- Please.
Copy !req
144. Be with you in a second!
Copy !req
145. - I'm in no mood for trouble.
- What?
Copy !req
146. There's an old saying. "The first customer
of the day is always the most trouble."
Copy !req
147. But like I say,
I'm in no mood for it,
Copy !req
148. so I'm gonna treat you so fair and square
that you won't have one human reason...
Copy !req
149. Can I trade my car in and take another?
Copy !req
150. Do anything you have a mind to.
Being a woman, you will. That yours?
Copy !req
151. Yes, it's... There's nothing wrong with it.
Copy !req
152. - I just...
- Sick of the sight of it.
Copy !req
153. Why don't you have a look around here
Copy !req
154. and see if there's something
that strikes your eyes.
Copy !req
155. And meanwhile, I'll have my mechanic
give yours the once-over.
Copy !req
156. - You want some coffee? I was just about...
- No, thank you.
Copy !req
157. I'm in a hurry and I just
wanna make a change.
Copy !req
158. One thing people never ought to be
Copy !req
159. when they're buying used cars
and that's in a hurry.
Copy !req
160. But like I said, it's too nice a day to argue.
I'll shoot your car in the garage here.
Copy !req
161. That's the one I'd have picked
for you myself.
Copy !req
162. - How much?
- Go ahead.
Copy !req
163. - Spin it around the block.
- It looks fine.
Copy !req
164. How much would it be with my car?
Copy !req
165. You mean you don't want the usual day
and a half to think it over?
Copy !req
166. You are in a hurry, aren't you?
Somebody chasing you?
Copy !req
167. Of course not. Please.
Copy !req
168. Well, it's the first time the customer
ever high-pressured the salesman.
Copy !req
169. I figure roughly
Copy !req
170. your car plus $700.
Copy !req
171. - $700.
- You always got time to argue money, huh?
Copy !req
172. All right.
Copy !req
173. I take it you can prove that car is yours.
Copy !req
174. I mean, out-of-state licence and all.
You got your pink slip...
Copy !req
175. I believe I have the necessary papers.
Is there a ladies' room?
Copy !req
176. In the building.
Copy !req
177. Over there.
Copy !req
178. I think you better take it
for a trial spin.
Copy !req
179. I don't want any bad word of mouth
about California Charlie.
Copy !req
180. I'd really rather not.
Can't we just settle this and...
Copy !req
181. I might as well be perfectly honest
with you, ma'am.
Copy !req
182. - It's not that I don't trust you, but...
- But what?
Copy !req
183. Is there anything so terribly wrong
Copy !req
184. about making a decision
and wanting to hurry?
Copy !req
185. - Do you think I've stolen my car?
- No, ma'am.
Copy !req
186. All right, let's go inside.
Copy !req
187. Hey!
Copy !req
188. Just put it in here, please.
Copy !req
189. Thank you.
Copy !req
190. Heck, Officer,
Copy !req
191. that was the first time
I ever saw the customer
Copy !req
192. high-pressure the salesman.
Copy !req
193. Somebody chasing her?
Copy !req
194. I better have a look
at those papers, Charlie.
Copy !req
195. She look like a wrong one to you?
Copy !req
196. Acted like one.
Copy !req
197. The only funny thing,
she paid me $700 in cash.
Copy !req
198. - Yes, Mr Lowery.
- Caroline, Marion still isn't in?
Copy !req
199. No, Mr Lowery, but then
she's always a bit late on Monday mornings.
Copy !req
200. Buzz me the minute she comes in.
Copy !req
201. And call her sister.
No one's answering at the house.
Copy !req
202. I called her sister, Mr Lowery,
where she works,
Copy !req
203. the Music Makers Music Store, you know,
Copy !req
204. and she doesn't know where Marion is
any more than we do.
Copy !req
205. You better run out to the house.
Copy !req
206. She may be, well,
unable to answer the phone.
Copy !req
207. Her sister's going to do that.
She's as worried as we are.
Copy !req
208. No, I haven't the faintest idea.
Copy !req
209. As I said, I last saw your sister
when she left this office on Friday.
Copy !req
210. She said she didn't feel well and wanted
to leave early, and I said she could.
Copy !req
211. That was the last I saw...
Oh, wait a minute.
Copy !req
212. I did see her some time later, driving...
Copy !req
213. I think you'd better come over here
to my office, quick.
Copy !req
214. Caroline, get Mr Cassidy for me.
Copy !req
215. After all, Cassidy, I told you,
all that cash!
Copy !req
216. I'm not taking the responsibility.
Copy !req
217. Oh, for heaven's sake.
Copy !req
218. A girl works for you for 10 years,
you trust her.
Copy !req
219. All right, yes, you better come over.
Copy !req
220. Well, I ain't about to kiss off $40,000!
Copy !req
221. I'll get it back, and if any of it's missing,
I'll replace it with her fine, soft flesh!
Copy !req
222. - I'll track her, never you doubt it.
- Hold on, Cassidy.
Copy !req
223. I still can't believe...
It must be some kind of a mystery. I can't...
Copy !req
224. You checked with the bank, no?
They never laid eyes on her, no?
Copy !req
225. You still trusting? Hot creepers!
She sat there while I dumped it out!
Copy !req
226. Hardly even looked at it. Planning.
And even flirting with me!
Copy !req
227. Gee, I'm sorry I didn't hear you
in all this rain.
Copy !req
228. Go ahead in, please.
Copy !req
229. - Dirty night.
- You have a vacancy?
Copy !req
230. Oh, we have 12 vacancies.
Twelve cabins, 12 vacancies.
Copy !req
231. They... They moved away the highway.
Copy !req
232. Oh, I thought I'd gotten off the main road.
Copy !req
233. I knew you must have.
Copy !req
234. Nobody ever stops here any more
unless they've done that.
Copy !req
235. But there's no sense dwelling on our losses.
Copy !req
236. We just keep on lighting the lights
and following the formalities.
Copy !req
237. Your home address.
Oh, just the town will do.
Copy !req
238. Los Angeles.
Copy !req
239. Cabin One. It's closer
in case you want anything.
Copy !req
240. Right next to the office.
Copy !req
241. I want sleep more than anything else,
except maybe food.
Copy !req
242. Well, there's a big diner about 10 miles
up the road, just outside of Fairvale.
Copy !req
243. - Am I that close to Fairvale?
- Fifteen miles. I'll get your bags.
Copy !req
244. Boy, it's stuffy in here.
Copy !req
245. Well, the mattress is soft
Copy !req
246. and there's hangers in the closet
and stationery with Bates Motel printed on it
Copy !req
247. in case you wanna make
your friends back home feel envious.
Copy !req
248. And the...
Copy !req
249. - Over there.
- The bathroom.
Copy !req
250. Yeah.
Copy !req
251. Well, if you want anything,
just tap on the wall.
Copy !req
252. - I'll be in the office.
- Thank you, Mr Bates.
Copy !req
253. Norman Bates.
Copy !req
254. You're not really gonna go out again
and drive up to the diner, are you?
Copy !req
255. No.
Copy !req
256. Well, then would you do me a favour?
Would you have dinner with me?
Copy !req
257. I was just about to myself.
Copy !req
258. You know, nothing special,
just sandwiches and milk.
Copy !req
259. But I'd like it very much
if you'd come up to the house.
Copy !req
260. I don't set a fancy table,
but the kitchen's awful homey.
Copy !req
261. - I'd like to.
- All right.
Copy !req
262. You get yourself settled
and take off your wet shoes,
Copy !req
263. and I'll be back as soon as it's ready.
Copy !req
264. Okay.
Copy !req
265. With my... With my trusty umbrella.
Copy !req
266. No! I tell you no!
Copy !req
267. I won't have you bringing
strange young girls in for supper!
Copy !req
268. By candlelight, I suppose,
in the cheap, erotic fashion
Copy !req
269. of young men with cheap, erotic minds!
Copy !req
270. Mother, please.
Copy !req
271. And then what, after supper?
Music? Whispers?
Copy !req
272. Mother, she's just a stranger.
She's hungry and it's raining out.
Copy !req
273. "Mother, she's just a stranger."
As if men don't desire strangers. As if...
Copy !req
274. I refuse to speak of disgusting things,
because they disgust me!
Copy !req
275. You understand, boy? Go on.
Copy !req
276. Go tell her she'll not be appeasing
her ugly appetite
Copy !req
277. with my food or my son!
Copy !req
278. Or do I have to tell her
'cause you don't have the guts?
Copy !req
279. - Huh, boy? You have the guts, boy?
- Shut up! Shut up!
Copy !req
280. - I've caused you some trouble.
- No.
Copy !req
281. Mother... My mother...
Copy !req
282. What is the phrase?
Copy !req
283. She isn't quite herself today.
Copy !req
284. You shouldn't have bothered.
I really don't have that much of an appetite.
Copy !req
285. Oh, I'm sorry.
Copy !req
286. I wish you could apologise for other people.
Copy !req
287. Don't worry about it.
Copy !req
288. But as long as you've fixed a supper,
we may as well eat it.
Copy !req
289. It might be nicer and warmer in the office.
Copy !req
290. Well, it stopped raining.
Copy !req
291. Eating in an office is just too officious.
Copy !req
292. - I have the parlour back here.
- All right.
Copy !req
293. - Sit down.
- Thank you.
Copy !req
294. You're very kind.
Copy !req
295. It's all for you.
I'm not hungry. Go ahead.
Copy !req
296. You... You eat like a bird.
Copy !req
297. And you'd know, of course.
Copy !req
298. No, not really.
Copy !req
299. Anyway, I hear the expression
"Eats like a bird"
Copy !req
300. is really a false... Falsity.
Copy !req
301. Because birds really eat a tremendous lot.
Copy !req
302. But I don't really know
anything about birds.
Copy !req
303. My hobby is stuffing things.
Copy !req
304. You know, taxidermy.
Copy !req
305. And I guess I'd just
rather stuff birds because
Copy !req
306. I hate the look of beasts
when they're stuffed.
Copy !req
307. You know, foxes and chimps.
Copy !req
308. Some people even stuff dogs and cats,
but, oh, I can't do that.
Copy !req
309. I think only birds look well stuffed because...
Copy !req
310. Well, because they're kind of passive
to begin with.
Copy !req
311. It's a strange hobby. Curious.
Copy !req
312. - Uncommon, too.
- Oh, I imagine so.
Copy !req
313. And it's not as expensive as you'd think.
It's cheap, really.
Copy !req
314. You know, needles and thread, sawdust.
Copy !req
315. The chemicals are the only thing
that cost anything.
Copy !req
316. A man should have a hobby.
Copy !req
317. Well, it's... It's more than a hobby.
Copy !req
318. A hobby's supposed to pass the time,
not fill it.
Copy !req
319. Is your time so empty?
Copy !req
320. No.
Copy !req
321. Well, I run the office
Copy !req
322. and tend the cabins and grounds
Copy !req
323. and do little errands for my mother.
Copy !req
324. The ones she allows
I might be capable of doing.
Copy !req
325. Do you go out with friends?
Copy !req
326. Well, a boy's best friend is his mother.
Copy !req
327. You've never had an empty moment
in your entire life, have you?
Copy !req
328. - Only my share.
- Where are you going?
Copy !req
329. I didn't mean to pry.
Copy !req
330. I'm looking for a private island.
Copy !req
331. What are you running away from?
Copy !req
332. - Why do you ask that?
- I don't know.
Copy !req
333. People never run away from anything.
Copy !req
334. The rain didn't last long, did it?
You know what I think?
Copy !req
335. I think that
Copy !req
336. we're all in our private traps,
Copy !req
337. clamped in them,
and none of us can ever get out.
Copy !req
338. We scratch and claw,
Copy !req
339. but only at the air, only at each other.
Copy !req
340. And for all of it, we never budge an inch.
Copy !req
341. Sometimes we deliberately step
into those traps.
Copy !req
342. I was born in mine.
I don't mind it any more.
Copy !req
343. Oh, but you should.
You should mind it.
Copy !req
344. Oh, I do, but I say I don't.
Copy !req
345. You know, if anyone ever talked to me
the way I heard,
Copy !req
346. the way she spoke to you...
Copy !req
347. Sometimes when she talks to me like that,
Copy !req
348. I feel I'd like to go up there
and curse her and leave her forever.
Copy !req
349. Or at least defy her.
Copy !req
350. But I know I can't.
Copy !req
351. She's ill.
Copy !req
352. She sounded strong.
Copy !req
353. No, I mean ill.
Copy !req
354. She had to raise me all by herself,
after my father died.
Copy !req
355. I was only five and it must've been
quite a strain for her.
Copy !req
356. I mean, she didn't have to go to work
or anything like that.
Copy !req
357. He left her a little money.
Copy !req
358. Anyway, a few years ago,
Mother met this man.
Copy !req
359. And he talked her into building this motel.
Copy !req
360. He could have talked her into anything.
Copy !req
361. And when he died, too,
it was just too great a shock for her.
Copy !req
362. And the way he died...
Copy !req
363. I guess it's nothing to talk about
while you're eating.
Copy !req
364. Anyway, it was just too great a loss for her.
She had nothing left.
Copy !req
365. Except you.
Copy !req
366. Well, a son is a poor substitute for a lover.
Copy !req
367. Why don't you go away?
Copy !req
368. To a private island, like you?
Copy !req
369. No, not like me.
Copy !req
370. I couldn't do that.
Who'd look after her?
Copy !req
371. She'd be alone up there.
Copy !req
372. Her fire would go out.
Copy !req
373. It'd be cold and damp like a grave.
Copy !req
374. If you love someone,
Copy !req
375. you don't do that to them,
even if you hate them.
Copy !req
376. You understand, I don't hate her.
Copy !req
377. I hate what she's become.
Copy !req
378. I hate the illness.
Copy !req
379. Wouldn't it be better if you put her
Copy !req
380. someplace...
Copy !req
381. You mean an institution? A madhouse?
Copy !req
382. People always call a madhouse
"someplace," don't they?
Copy !req
383. Put her in someplace.
Copy !req
384. I'm sorry. I didn't mean it
to sound uncaring.
Copy !req
385. What do you know about caring?
Copy !req
386. Have you ever seen the inside
of one of those places?
Copy !req
387. The laughing and the tears
Copy !req
388. and the cruel eyes studying you.
Copy !req
389. My mother there?
Copy !req
390. But she's harmless.
Copy !req
391. She's as harmless
as one of those stuffed birds.
Copy !req
392. I am sorry.
Copy !req
393. I only felt... It seems she's hurting you.
Copy !req
394. - I meant well.
- People always mean well.
Copy !req
395. They cluck their thick tongues
and shake their heads
Copy !req
396. and suggest, oh, so very delicately.
Copy !req
397. Of course, I've suggested it myself.
Copy !req
398. But I hate to even think about it.
Copy !req
399. She needs me.
Copy !req
400. It's not as if she were
Copy !req
401. a maniac, a raving thing.
Copy !req
402. She just goes a little mad sometimes.
Copy !req
403. We all go a little mad sometimes.
Copy !req
404. Haven't you?
Copy !req
405. Yes.
Copy !req
406. Sometimes just one time can be enough.
Copy !req
407. Thank you.
Copy !req
408. Thank you, Norman.
Copy !req
409. Norman.
Copy !req
410. Oh, you're not going back
to your room already?
Copy !req
411. I'm very tired.
Copy !req
412. And I have a long drive tomorrow,
all the way back to Phoenix.
Copy !req
413. Really?
Copy !req
414. I stepped into a private trap back there
Copy !req
415. and I'd like to go back
and try to pull myself out of it
Copy !req
416. before it's too late for me, too.
Copy !req
417. Are you sure you wouldn't like
to stay just a little while longer?
Copy !req
418. Just for talk?
Copy !req
419. Oh, I'd like to, but...
Copy !req
420. All right.
Copy !req
421. Well, I'll see you in the morning.
I'll bring you some breakfast, all right?
Copy !req
422. - What time?
- Very early. Dawn.
Copy !req
423. All right, Miss...
Copy !req
424. - Crane.
- Crane. That's it.
Copy !req
425. Good night.
Copy !req
426. No!
Copy !req
427. No!
Copy !req
428. Mother! Oh, God, Mother!
Copy !req
429. Blood! Blood!
Copy !req
430. I've tried many brands.
Copy !req
431. So far, of those I've used,
I haven't had much luck with any of them.
Copy !req
432. Let's see what they say about this one.
Copy !req
433. They tell you what its ingredients are
Copy !req
434. and how it's guaranteed to exterminate
every insect in the world,
Copy !req
435. but they do not tell you
whether or not it's painless.
Copy !req
436. And I say, insect or man,
death should always be painless.
Copy !req
437. I suppose, this one seems to claim more
and better qualities than lots of the others.
Copy !req
438. Sam?
Copy !req
439. Sam! Lady wants to see you.
Copy !req
440. - Yes, miss?
- I'm Marion's sister.
Copy !req
441. - Oh, sure. Lila.
- Is Marion here?
Copy !req
442. - Well, of course not.
- Thank you.
Copy !req
443. Something wrong?
Copy !req
444. She left home on Friday.
Copy !req
445. I was in Tucson over the weekend
and I haven't heard from her since.
Copy !req
446. Not even a phone call.
Copy !req
447. Look, if you two are in this thing together,
I don't care, it's none of my business,
Copy !req
448. but I want to talk to Marion
and I want her to tell me
Copy !req
449. it's none of my business
and then I'll go...
Copy !req
450. Bob, run out and get yourself
some lunch, will you?
Copy !req
451. - That's okay, Sam. I brought it with me.
- Run out and eat it.
Copy !req
452. Now, what thing could we be in together?
Copy !req
453. Sorry about the tears.
Copy !req
454. Well, is Marion in trouble?
What is it?
Copy !req
455. Let's all talk about Marion, shall we?
Copy !req
456. Who are you, friend?
Copy !req
457. My name is Arbogast, friend.
Copy !req
458. I'm a private investigator.
Copy !req
459. - Where is she, Miss Crane?
- I don't know you.
Copy !req
460. Why, I know you don't, because if you did,
I wouldn't be able to follow you.
Copy !req
461. What's your interest in this?
Copy !req
462. Well, $40,000.
Copy !req
463. - $40,000?
- That's right.
Copy !req
464. Well, one of you'd better tell me
what's going on, and tell me fast.
Copy !req
465. - I can take just so much of this...
- Now, take it easy, friend.
Copy !req
466. Take it easy.
It's just that your girlfriend stole $40,000.
Copy !req
467. What are you talking about?
What is this?
Copy !req
468. She was supposed to bank it on Friday
for her boss and she didn't.
Copy !req
469. - And no one has seen her since.
- Someone has seen her.
Copy !req
470. Someone always sees a girl with $40,000.
Copy !req
471. Sam, they don't want to prosecute,
they just want the money back.
Copy !req
472. - Sam, if she's here...
- She isn't. She isn't.
Copy !req
473. Miss Crane, can I ask you a question?
Copy !req
474. Did you come up here on just a hunch
and nothing more?
Copy !req
475. Not even a hunch. Just hope.
Copy !req
476. Well, with a little checking
I could get to believe you.
Copy !req
477. I don't care if you believe me or not.
Copy !req
478. All I want to do is see Marion
before she gets in this too deeply.
Copy !req
479. Did you check in Phoenix? Hospitals?
Maybe she had an accident, or a holdup.
Copy !req
480. No, she was seen leaving town
in her own car,
Copy !req
481. by her employer, I might add.
Copy !req
482. I can't believe it. Can you?
Copy !req
483. Well, you know, we're always quickest
to doubt people
Copy !req
484. who have a reputation for being honest.
Copy !req
485. I think she's here, Miss Crane.
Copy !req
486. Where there's a boyfriend...
Copy !req
487. Well, she's not back there
with the nuts and bolts,
Copy !req
488. but she's here, in this town somewhere.
Copy !req
489. I'll find her. I'll be seeing you.
Copy !req
490. - Evening.
- Evening.
Copy !req
491. I almost drove right past.
Copy !req
492. I'm always forgetting to turn the sign on,
but we do have a vacancy.
Copy !req
493. Twelve, in fact.
Twelve cabins, twelve vacancies. Candy?
Copy !req
494. No, thanks.
Copy !req
495. Last two days, I've been to so many motels
my eyes are bleary with neon,
Copy !req
496. but, you know, this is the first place
that looks like it's hiding from the world.
Copy !req
497. Well, I'll tell you the truth.
I didn't really forget to turn the sign on.
Copy !req
498. Just doesn't seem like any use
any more, you know.
Copy !req
499. See, that used to be
the main highway right there.
Copy !req
500. Well, wanna come in and register?
Copy !req
501. No, no, sit down.
I don't wanna trouble you.
Copy !req
502. - I just wanna ask a few questions.
- No, that's no trouble. Today's linen day.
Copy !req
503. I always change the beds here once a week
whether they've been used or not.
Copy !req
504. Hate the smell of dampness, don't you?
It's such a...
Copy !req
505. I don't know, creepy smell. Come on.
Copy !req
506. You out to buy a motel?
Copy !req
507. No.
Copy !req
508. Reason I ask, you said you'd seen so many
Copy !req
509. in the past couple of days,
I thought maybe you...
Copy !req
510. What... What was it you wanted to ask?
Copy !req
511. Well, you see,
I'm looking for a missing person.
Copy !req
512. My name's Arbogast.
I'm a private investigator.
Copy !req
513. I've been trying to trace a girl
Copy !req
514. that's been missing for, oh,
about a week now from Phoenix.
Copy !req
515. It's a private matter.
The family wants to forgive her.
Copy !req
516. She's not in any trouble.
Copy !req
517. I didn't think the police went looking
for people who aren't in trouble.
Copy !req
518. - I'm not the police.
- Oh, yeah.
Copy !req
519. We have reason to believe
that she came along this way.
Copy !req
520. May have stopped in the area.
Did she stop here?
Copy !req
521. Well, no one's stopped here
for a couple of weeks.
Copy !req
522. Would you mind looking at the picture
before committing yourself?
Copy !req
523. Commit myself?
Copy !req
524. - You sure talk like a policeman.
- Look at the picture, please.
Copy !req
525. - Sure?
- Yeah.
Copy !req
526. Well, she may have used an alias.
Copy !req
527. Marion Crane's her real name,
Copy !req
528. but she could've registered
under a different one.
Copy !req
529. Well, I tell you, I don't even much bother
with guests registering any more.
Copy !req
530. You know, one by one,
you drop the formalities.
Copy !req
531. I shouldn't even bother
changing the sheets,
Copy !req
532. but old habits die hard.
Copy !req
533. Which reminds me...
Copy !req
534. - What's that?
- It's the light. The sign.
Copy !req
535. We had a couple last week,
said if the thing hadn't been on,
Copy !req
536. they would've thought
this was an old, deserted...
Copy !req
537. Well, you see, that's exactly my point.
Copy !req
538. You said that nobody'd been here
for a couple weeks,
Copy !req
539. and there's a couple came by
and didn't know that you were open.
Copy !req
540. Yeah.
Copy !req
541. Well, as you say, old habits die hard.
Copy !req
542. It's possible, this girl could've registered
under another name.
Copy !req
543. Do you mind if I look at your book?
Copy !req
544. - No.
- Thank you.
Copy !req
545. All right.
Copy !req
546. I'll get the date somewhere.
Copy !req
547. See, there's nobody.
Copy !req
548. Let's see now, I have a sample
of her handwriting here.
Copy !req
549. Oh, yes.
Copy !req
550. Here we are.
Copy !req
551. Marie Samuels. That's an interesting alias.
Copy !req
552. - Is that her?
- Yeah. Yeah, I think so.
Copy !req
553. Marie, Marion.
Copy !req
554. Samuels. Her boyfriend's name is Sam.
Copy !req
555. Was she in disguise, by any chance?
Copy !req
556. - Wanna check the picture again?
- Look, I wasn't lying to you, Mr...
Copy !req
557. Oh, I know that.
I know you wouldn't lie.
Copy !req
558. You know, it's tough keeping track
of the time around here.
Copy !req
559. Oh, I know, I know.
Copy !req
560. Oh, yeah.
Copy !req
561. Well, it was raining
Copy !req
562. and her hair was all wet.
Copy !req
563. I tell you, it's not really
a very good picture of her either.
Copy !req
564. No, I guess not.
Copy !req
565. Tell me all about her.
Copy !req
566. Well,
Copy !req
567. she arrived rather late one night,
and she went straight to sleep
Copy !req
568. and left early the next morning.
Copy !req
569. - How early?
- Oh, very early.
Copy !req
570. Which morning was that?
Copy !req
571. The...
Copy !req
572. - The next morning. Sunday.
- I see.
Copy !req
573. - Did anyone meet her here?
- No.
Copy !req
574. - Did she arrive with anyone?
- No.
Copy !req
575. - Did she make any phone calls or...
- No.
Copy !req
576. Locally?
Copy !req
577. Did you spend the night with her?
Copy !req
578. No.
Copy !req
579. Well then, how would you know
that she didn't make any phone calls?
Copy !req
580. Well, she was very tired and...
Copy !req
581. See, now I'm starting to remember.
Copy !req
582. I'm making a mental picture of it in my mind.
Copy !req
583. You know, if you make
a mental picturisation of something...
Copy !req
584. That's right. That's right.
Take your time.
Copy !req
585. She was... She was sitting back there...
Copy !req
586. No, no, she was standing back there
with a sandwich in her hand
Copy !req
587. and she said she had to go to sleep early
Copy !req
588. because she had a long drive ahead of her.
Copy !req
589. - Back where?
- Back where she came from.
Copy !req
590. No, you said before that she was
sitting back there... Standing back there...
Copy !req
591. Yes, back in my parlour there.
Copy !req
592. She was very hungry
and I made her a sandwich
Copy !req
593. and then she said that she was tired
and she had to go right to bed.
Copy !req
594. I see. How did she pay you?
Copy !req
595. - Cash? Cheque?
- Cash.
Copy !req
596. Cash, huh?
Copy !req
597. - And after she left, she didn't come back?
- Well, why should she?
Copy !req
598. Yeah.
Copy !req
599. Well, Mr Arbogast, I guess that's about it.
Copy !req
600. I've got some work to do, if you don't mind.
Copy !req
601. Well, to tell you the truth, I do mind.
Copy !req
602. You see, if it doesn't jell, it isn't aspic,
and this ain't jelling.
Copy !req
603. It's not coming together.
Something's missing.
Copy !req
604. Well, I don't know
what you could expect me to know.
Copy !req
605. People just come and go, you know.
Copy !req
606. - That's right. She isn't still here, is she?
- No.
Copy !req
607. If I wanted to check the cabins,
all 12 of them,
Copy !req
608. I'd need a warrant, wouldn't I?
Copy !req
609. Listen, if you don't believe me, come on with me.
You can help me change beds.
Copy !req
610. - Okay?
- No, thanks.
Copy !req
611. Change your mind?
Copy !req
612. You know, I... I think I must have
one of those faces you just can't help believing.
Copy !req
613. - Is anyone at home?
- No.
Copy !req
614. Oh? There's somebody sitting up in the window.
Copy !req
615. - No, no, there isn't.
- Sure, go ahead. Take a look.
Copy !req
616. Oh, that must be my mother.
Copy !req
617. She's an invalid.
Copy !req
618. It's practically like living alone.
Copy !req
619. Oh, I see.
Copy !req
620. Now, if this girl, Marion Crane, were here,
you wouldn't be hiding her, would you?
Copy !req
621. - No.
- Not even if she paid you well?
Copy !req
622. No.
Copy !req
623. Let's just say, just for the sake of argument,
that she wanted you to gallantly protect her.
Copy !req
624. You'd know that you were being used.
Copy !req
625. You wouldn't be made a fool of, would you?
Copy !req
626. - But I'm not a fool.
- Well, I...
Copy !req
627. And I'm not capable of being fooled,
not even by a woman.
Copy !req
628. - Well, this is not a slur on your manhood.
- Let's put it this way.
Copy !req
629. She might have fooled me,
but she didn't fool my mother.
Copy !req
630. Well, then your mother met her.
Could I talk to your mother?
Copy !req
631. No. As I told you, she's confined.
Copy !req
632. Yes, but just for a few minutes.
That's all.
Copy !req
633. There might be some hint
that you missed out on.
Copy !req
634. You know, sick old women
are usually pretty sharp.
Copy !req
635. - Mr Arbogast... I think I've...
- Just for a moment. I wouldn't disturb her.
Copy !req
636. - I think I've talked to you all I want to.
- Yes, but just for...
Copy !req
637. I think it'd be much better
if you left now. Thanks.
Copy !req
638. Well, all right.
Copy !req
639. You sure would save me a lot of leg work
if you'd let me talk to her.
Copy !req
640. - Would I need a warrant for that, too?
- Sure.
Copy !req
641. All right. Thanks anyway.
Copy !req
642. Hello, Loomis. This is Arbogast.
Is Lila there?
Copy !req
643. Okay. Let me talk to her, please.
Copy !req
644. Hello, Lila.
Copy !req
645. Lila, listen. Marion was up here.
Copy !req
646. Yes, she spent last Saturday night
at the Bates Motel.
Copy !req
647. It's right out here on the old highway.
Copy !req
648. I even know what cabin she was in.
It was number one.
Copy !req
649. Well, this young fella that runs the place
said that she just spent the night,
Copy !req
650. left the next day and that was it.
Copy !req
651. No, not exactly.
Copy !req
652. Well, I did question him, believe me,
but I think I got all there was to get.
Copy !req
653. I'll just have to pick up the pieces from here.
Copy !req
654. Well, I tell you,
I don't feel entirely satisfied...
Copy !req
655. See, this boy had a sick old mother.
Copy !req
656. I think she saw Marion and talked to her.
Copy !req
657. No. No, unfortunately,
he wouldn't let me see her.
Copy !req
658. Well, I was, but I think
I'll go back to the motel first.
Copy !req
659. No, you stay there with Loomis.
I'll be back in about an hour.
Copy !req
660. All right, fine. Listen, I...
Copy !req
661. You'll be happy to know what I think.
Copy !req
662. I think our friend Sam Loomis
didn't know that Marion was here.
Copy !req
663. Yeah. All right.
See you in about an hour or less.
Copy !req
664. All right, bye-bye.
Copy !req
665. Bates?
Copy !req
666. Sometimes Saturday night
has a lonely sound.
Copy !req
667. Ever notice that, Lila?
Copy !req
668. Sam, he said an hour or less.
Copy !req
669. Yeah.
Copy !req
670. - It's been three.
- Well, are we just going to sit here and wait?
Copy !req
671. He'll be back.
Copy !req
672. Let's sit still and hang on, okay?
Copy !req
673. - How far is the old highway?
- You wanna go out there, don't you?
Copy !req
674. - Bust in on Arbogast and the old lady...
- Yes.
Copy !req
675. - Maybe shake her up.
- Yes!
Copy !req
676. - That wouldn't be a wise thing to do.
- Patience doesn't run in my family, Sam.
Copy !req
677. - I'm going out there.
- Look, Arbogast said...
Copy !req
678. An hour, or less.
Copy !req
679. - Well, I'm going.
- You'll never find it.
Copy !req
680. - Stay here.
- Why can't I go with you?
Copy !req
681. I don't know. One of us has to be here,
in case he's on the way.
Copy !req
682. What am I supposed to do,
just sit here and wait?
Copy !req
683. Yeah. Stay here.
Copy !req
684. Arbogast?
Copy !req
685. Arbogast!
Copy !req
686. Arbogast!
Copy !req
687. - He didn't come back here?
- Sam!
Copy !req
688. No Arbogast, no Bates.
Only the old lady at home.
Copy !req
689. Sick old lady unable to answer the door,
or unwilling.
Copy !req
690. Where could he have gone?
Copy !req
691. Maybe he got some definite lead.
Maybe he went right on.
Copy !req
692. - Without calling me?
- In a hurry.
Copy !req
693. Sam, he called when he had nothing.
Nothing but a dissatisfied feeling.
Copy !req
694. Don't you think he'd have called
if he had anything at all?
Copy !req
695. Yes, I think he would've.
Copy !req
696. - Let's go see Al Chambers.
- Who's he?
Copy !req
697. - Our deputy sheriff around here.
- All right. Let me get my coat.
Copy !req
698. Good evening.
Copy !req
699. Well, I don't know where to start,
except at the beginning.
Copy !req
700. Yes.
Copy !req
701. - This is Lila Crane from Phoenix.
- How do you do?
Copy !req
702. She's been here searching for her sister.
There's this private detective helping and...
Copy !req
703. Well, we got a call from this detective
Copy !req
704. saying that he'd traced her to that motel
out on the old highway.
Copy !req
705. That must be the Bates Motel.
Copy !req
706. He traced her there and called us
to say he was going to question Mrs Bates.
Copy !req
707. Norman took a wife?
Copy !req
708. No, I don't think so.
An old woman. His mother.
Copy !req
709. Well, anyway, that was early this evening.
We haven't seen or heard from him since.
Copy !req
710. Now, your sister's missing how long?
Copy !req
711. Well, she left Phoenix a week ago yesterday,
without a trace.
Copy !req
712. How'd you and this detective
come to trace her to Fairvale?
Copy !req
713. They thought she'd be coming to me.
Copy !req
714. - Left Phoenix under her own steam?
- Yes.
Copy !req
715. She's not missing so much
as she's run away.
Copy !req
716. - That's right.
- From what?
Copy !req
717. - She stole some money.
- A lot?
Copy !req
718. $40,000.
Copy !req
719. And the police haven't been able to...
Copy !req
720. Everyone concerned thought if they
could get her to give the money back,
Copy !req
721. they could avoid involving her
with the police.
Copy !req
722. That explains the private detective.
He traced her to the Bates place.
Copy !req
723. What exactly did he say
when he called you?
Copy !req
724. Well, he said that Marion was there
for one night and then she left.
Copy !req
725. With the $40,000?
Copy !req
726. Well, he didn't say anything
about the money.
Copy !req
727. It isn't important what he said
on the phone, is it?
Copy !req
728. He was supposed to come back here
and talk to us
Copy !req
729. after he talked to the mother, and he didn't.
Copy !req
730. That's what I want you
to do something about.
Copy !req
731. Like what?
Copy !req
732. I'm sorry if I seem overanxious.
Copy !req
733. It's just that I'm sure there's something wrong
out there and I have to know what.
Copy !req
734. Well, I think there's something wrong too,
miss, but not the same thing.
Copy !req
735. I think what's wrong
is your private detective.
Copy !req
736. I think he got himself a hot lead
as to where your sister was going,
Copy !req
737. probably from Norman Bates,
Copy !req
738. and called you to keep you still
while he took off after her and the money.
Copy !req
739. No, no, he said he was dissatisfied
and he was going back there.
Copy !req
740. Why don't you call Norman
and let him say just what happened?
Copy !req
741. At this hour?
Copy !req
742. Well, he was out when I was there
just a while ago.
Copy !req
743. If he's back,
he probably isn't even in bed yet.
Copy !req
744. He wasn't out when you were there,
Copy !req
745. he just wasn't answering the door
in the dead of night, like some people do.
Copy !req
746. This fellow lives like a hermit.
Copy !req
747. You must remember that bad business out there
about 10 years ago.
Copy !req
748. Please. Call.
Copy !req
749. Florrie, the Sheriff wants you
to connect him with the Bates Motel.
Copy !req
750. Hello, Norman? Sheriff Chambers.
Copy !req
751. I've been just fine, thanks.
Copy !req
752. Listen, we got worries here.
Copy !req
753. Yeah, have you had a fella
stop by there tonight...
Copy !req
754. Well, this one wouldn't be a customer, anyway.
Copy !req
755. - He's a private detective, name of...
- Arbogast.
Copy !req
756. Arbogast.
Copy !req
757. And after he left?
Copy !req
758. No, that's okay, Norman.
Copy !req
759. This detective was there,
Norman told him about the girl,
Copy !req
760. the detective thanked him
and he went away.
Copy !req
761. And he didn't come back?
He didn't see the mother?
Copy !req
762. Your detective told you
he couldn't come right back
Copy !req
763. because he was going to question
Norman Bates' mother, right?
Copy !req
764. Yes.
Copy !req
765. Norman Bates' mother
has been dead and buried
Copy !req
766. in Green Lawn Cemetery
for the past 10 years.
Copy !req
767. I helped Norman pick out the dress
she was buried in. Periwinkle blue.
Copy !req
768. It ain't only local history, Sam.
Copy !req
769. It's the only case of murder and suicide
on Fairvale ledgers.
Copy !req
770. Mrs Bates poisoned this guy
she was involved with
Copy !req
771. when she found out he was married.
Copy !req
772. Then took a helping
of the same stuff herself.
Copy !req
773. Strychnine. Ugly way to die.
Copy !req
774. Norman found them dead together.
Copy !req
775. In bed.
Copy !req
776. You mean that old woman I saw sitting
in the window out there wasn't Bates' mother?
Copy !req
777. Now, wait a minute, Sam.
Are you sure you saw an old woman?
Copy !req
778. Yes! In the house behind the motel!
Copy !req
779. I called and pounded but she just ignored me!
Copy !req
780. You want to tell me
you saw Norman Bates' mother?
Copy !req
781. But it had to be
because Arbogast said so, too!
Copy !req
782. And the young man wouldn't let him see her
because she was too ill.
Copy !req
783. Well, if the woman up there is Mrs Bates,
Copy !req
784. who's that woman buried out
in Green Lawn Cemetery?
Copy !req
785. Now, Mother, I'm gonna bring something up...
Copy !req
786. I am sorry, boy,
Copy !req
787. but you do manage to look ludicrous
when you give me orders.
Copy !req
788. Please, Mother.
Copy !req
789. No! I will not hide in the fruit cellar.
Copy !req
790. You think I'm fruity, huh?
Copy !req
791. I'm staying right here.
Copy !req
792. This is my room
and no one will drag me out of it,
Copy !req
793. least of all my big, bold son.
Copy !req
794. They'll come now, Mother.
Copy !req
795. He came after the girl,
and now someone will come after him.
Copy !req
796. Mother, please, it's just for a few days.
Copy !req
797. Just for a few days
so they won't find you.
Copy !req
798. Just for a few days?
Copy !req
799. In that dark, dank fruit cellar? No!
Copy !req
800. You hid me there once, boy,
and you won't do it again, not ever again!
Copy !req
801. Now get out!
Copy !req
802. - I told you to get out, boy.
- I'll carry you, Mother.
Copy !req
803. Norman, what do you think you're doing?
Copy !req
804. Don't you touch me! Don't! Norman!
Copy !req
805. Put me down! Put me down!
I can walk on my own.
Copy !req
806. - Good morning.
- Good morning.
Copy !req
807. Good morning.
Copy !req
808. We thought if you didn't mind,
we'd drive out to that motel with you.
Copy !req
809. - He's already been.
- Went out before service.
Copy !req
810. - Did you two have breakfast?
- You didn't find anything?
Copy !req
811. Nothing. Let's clear the way here.
Copy !req
812. Well, what did he say about my sister?
Copy !req
813. Just what he told your detective,
she used a fake name.
Copy !req
814. Saw the register myself.
Copy !req
815. Saw the whole place, as a matter of fact.
That boy's alone there.
Copy !req
816. - No mother?
- You must have seen an illusion, Sam.
Copy !req
817. I know you're not the seeing-illusions type,
Copy !req
818. but no woman was there
and I don't believe in ghosts,
Copy !req
819. - so there it is.
- I still feel that there's something...
Copy !req
820. Can see you do.
I'm sorry I couldn't make you feel better.
Copy !req
821. You want to come around
to my office this afternoon
Copy !req
822. and report a missing person and a theft,
that's what you want to do.
Copy !req
823. The sooner you drop this
in the lap of the law,
Copy !req
824. that's the sooner you stand a chance
of your sister being picked up.
Copy !req
825. How about that?
Copy !req
826. - I don't know.
- It's Sunday.
Copy !req
827. Come on over to the house
and do your reporting around dinnertime.
Copy !req
828. It'll make it nicer.
Copy !req
829. - You too, Sam.
- Thank you.
Copy !req
830. - Maybe I am the seeing-illusions type.
- No, you're not.
Copy !req
831. Well, you want me to drop you
at the hotel or...
Copy !req
832. Sam.
Copy !req
833. I still won't feel satisfied
until I go out there.
Copy !req
834. Neither will I. Come on.
Copy !req
835. We better decide what we're gonna say or do
when we walk in there.
Copy !req
836. We're going to register as man and wife.
Copy !req
837. We're going to get shown to a cabin,
Copy !req
838. and then we're going to search
every inch of the place, inside and out.
Copy !req
839. I wonder where Norman Bates
does his hermiting.
Copy !req
840. Someone's at that window.
I just saw the curtain move.
Copy !req
841. Come on.
Copy !req
842. - Well?
- Just coming up to ring for you.
Copy !req
843. Suppose you want a room.
Copy !req
844. We were gonna try to make it
straight to San Francisco,
Copy !req
845. but we don't like the look of that sky.
Copy !req
846. - Looks like a bad day coming, doesn't it?
- Okay.
Copy !req
847. - I'll take you to Cabin 10.
- Better sign in first, hadn't we?
Copy !req
848. No. That's not necessary.
Copy !req
849. My boss is paying for this trip and,
well, it's 90% business.
Copy !req
850. He wants practically notarised receipts.
Copy !req
851. I'd better sign in and get a receipt.
Copy !req
852. Thank you.
Copy !req
853. - I'll get your bags.
- Haven't any.
Copy !req
854. - I'll show you the room, then.
- First time I've ever seen it happen.
Copy !req
855. You check in any other place
in this country without bags
Copy !req
856. and you have to pay in advance.
Copy !req
857. $10.
Copy !req
858. That receipt.
Copy !req
859. I'll go on ahead.
Copy !req
860. All right, there's your receipt.
Now, I'll show you the cabin.
Copy !req
861. Don't bother yourself. We'll find it.
Copy !req
862. Sam, we have to go into that cabin
and search it,
Copy !req
863. no matter what we're afraid of finding
or how much it may hurt.
Copy !req
864. I know.
Copy !req
865. Do you think if something happened,
it happened there?
Copy !req
866. I don't know.
Copy !req
867. But if you had a useless business
like this motel,
Copy !req
868. what would you need to get out?
Copy !req
869. To get a new business somewhere else?
Copy !req
870. $40,000?
Copy !req
871. How could we prove that...
Copy !req
872. Well, if he opens a motel
on the new highway in, say, a year...
Copy !req
873. There must be some proof that exists now,
Copy !req
874. something that proves he got that money
away from Marion somehow.
Copy !req
875. - What makes you sound so certain?
- Arbogast. He liked me, Sam.
Copy !req
876. Or he felt sorry for me and he was
beginning to feel the same way about you.
Copy !req
877. I could tell the last time
I talked to him on the phone.
Copy !req
878. He wouldn't have gone anywhere
Copy !req
879. or done anything without telling us,
unless he was stopped.
Copy !req
880. And he was stopped.
So he must have found out something.
Copy !req
881. We'll start with Cabin One.
Copy !req
882. If he sees us, we're just taking the air.
Copy !req
883. Bates.
Copy !req
884. - No shower curtain.
- Sam!
Copy !req
885. - Look!
- What is it?
Copy !req
886. It's figuring.
It didn't get washed down. Look.
Copy !req
887. Some figure has been added to
or subtracted from 40,000.
Copy !req
888. That proves Marion was here.
Copy !req
889. - It'd be too wild a coincidence...
- Bates never denied she was here.
Copy !req
890. Well, doesn't that prove
that he found out about the money?
Copy !req
891. Do we simply ask him where he's hidden it?
Copy !req
892. No.
Copy !req
893. But that old woman, whoever she is,
she told Arbogast something.
Copy !req
894. I want her to tell us the same thing.
Copy !req
895. - You can't go up there.
- Why not?
Copy !req
896. - Bates.
- Well, let's find him.
Copy !req
897. One of us can keep him occupied
while the other gets to the old woman.
Copy !req
898. You'll never be able to hold him still
if he doesn't want to be held.
Copy !req
899. - I don't like you going into that house alone.
- I can handle a sick old woman.
Copy !req
900. All right, I'll find Bates
and keep him occupied.
Copy !req
901. Wait a minute.
Copy !req
902. If you get anything out of the mother,
Copy !req
903. can you find your way back to town?
Copy !req
904. Yes, of course.
Copy !req
905. If you do get anything,
don't stop to tell me.
Copy !req
906. - You looking for me?
- Why, yes, as a matter of fact.
Copy !req
907. Wife's taking a nap
Copy !req
908. and I never can keep quiet enough for her,
so I just thought I'd look you up and talk.
Copy !req
909. - Good. You satisfied with your cabin?
- Oh, it's fine.
Copy !req
910. I've been doing all the talking so far,
haven't I?
Copy !req
911. I thought it was the people
who were alone most of the time
Copy !req
912. who did all the talking
when they got the chance.
Copy !req
913. Here you are doing all the listening.
Copy !req
914. You are alone here, aren't you?
Copy !req
915. Drive me crazy.
Copy !req
916. I think that would be
a rather extreme reaction, don't you?
Copy !req
917. Just an expression.
Copy !req
918. What I meant was I'd do
just about anything to get away.
Copy !req
919. - Wouldn't you?
- No.
Copy !req
920. Mrs Bates?
Copy !req
921. I'm not saying you shouldn't be contented here,
Copy !req
922. I'm just doubting that you are.
Copy !req
923. I think if you saw a chance to get out from under,
you'd unload this place.
Copy !req
924. This place?
This place happens to be my only world.
Copy !req
925. I grew up in that house up there.
I had a very happy childhood.
Copy !req
926. My mother and I were more than happy.
Copy !req
927. You look frightened.
Have I been saying something frightening?
Copy !req
928. I don't know what you've been saying.
Copy !req
929. I've been talking about your mother,
about your motel.
Copy !req
930. - How you gonna do it?
- Do what?
Copy !req
931. Buy a new one in a new town
where you won't have to hide your mother.
Copy !req
932. Why don't you just get in your car
and drive away from here, okay?
Copy !req
933. Where will you get the money
to do that, Bates?
Copy !req
934. Or do you already have it socked away?
Copy !req
935. - Shut up!
- A lot of it. $40,000.
Copy !req
936. I bet your mother knows where the money is
and what you did to get it.
Copy !req
937. I think she'll tell us.
Copy !req
938. Where's that girl you came here with?
Where is she?
Copy !req
939. Mrs Bates...
Copy !req
940. I'm Norma Bates!
Copy !req
941. If anyone gets any answers
it'll be the psychiatrist.
Copy !req
942. Even I couldn't get to Norman
and he knows me.
Copy !req
943. - You warm enough, miss?
- Yes.
Copy !req
944. Did he talk to you?
Copy !req
945. No.
Copy !req
946. I got the whole story, but not from Norman.
I got it from his mother.
Copy !req
947. Norman Bates no longer exists.
Copy !req
948. He only half-existed to begin with.
Copy !req
949. And now the other half has taken over,
Copy !req
950. probably for all time.
Copy !req
951. Did he kill my sister?
Copy !req
952. Yes. And no.
Copy !req
953. Well, now look, if you're trying to lay
some psychiatric groundwork
Copy !req
954. for some sort of plea,
this fellow would like to cop...
Copy !req
955. A psychiatrist doesn't lay the groundwork.
Copy !req
956. He merely tries to explain it.
Copy !req
957. - But my sister is...
- Yes.
Copy !req
958. Yes, I'm sorry.
Copy !req
959. The private investigator, too.
Copy !req
960. If you drag that swamp somewhere
in the vicinity of the motel, you'll...
Copy !req
961. Have you any unsolved
missing persons cases on your books?
Copy !req
962. - Yes, two.
- Young girls?
Copy !req
963. - Did he confess to...
- Like I said, the mother.
Copy !req
964. Now, to understand it the way I understood it,
hearing it from the mother,
Copy !req
965. that is, from the mother half
of Norman's mind,
Copy !req
966. you have to go back 10 years
Copy !req
967. to the time when Norman murdered
his mother and her lover.
Copy !req
968. Now, he was already dangerously disturbed,
had been ever since his father died.
Copy !req
969. His mother was a clinging,
demanding woman,
Copy !req
970. and for years the two of them lived
as if there was no one else in the world.
Copy !req
971. Then she met a man,
Copy !req
972. and it seemed to Norman
that she threw him over for this man.
Copy !req
973. Now, that pushed him over the line
and he killed them both.
Copy !req
974. Matricide is probably
the most unbearable crime of all,
Copy !req
975. most unbearable to the son who commits it.
Copy !req
976. So he had to erase the crime,
at least in his own mind.
Copy !req
977. He stole her corpse.
Copy !req
978. A weighted coffin was buried.
Copy !req
979. He hid the body in the fruit cellar,
Copy !req
980. even treated it to keep it
as well as it would keep.
Copy !req
981. And that still wasn't enough.
Copy !req
982. She was there, but she was a corpse.
Copy !req
983. So he began to think and speak for her,
Copy !req
984. give her half his life, so to speak.
Copy !req
985. At times he could be both personalities,
carry on conversations.
Copy !req
986. At other times,
the mother half took over completely.
Copy !req
987. He was never all Norman,
but he was often only Mother,
Copy !req
988. and because he was
so pathologically jealous of her,
Copy !req
989. he assumed that she was as jealous of him.
Copy !req
990. Therefore, if he felt a strong attraction
to any other woman,
Copy !req
991. the mother side of him would go wild.
Copy !req
992. When he met your sister,
Copy !req
993. he was touched by her, aroused by her.
Copy !req
994. He wanted her.
Copy !req
995. That set off the jealous mother,
and Mother killed the girl.
Copy !req
996. After the murder,
Norman returned as if from a deep sleep,
Copy !req
997. and, like a dutiful son,
covered up all traces of the crime
Copy !req
998. he was convinced his mother had committed!
Copy !req
999. Why was he dressed like that?
Copy !req
1000. He's a transvestite.
Copy !req
1001. Not exactly.
Copy !req
1002. A man who dresses in women's clothing
in order to achieve a sexual change
Copy !req
1003. or satisfaction is a transvestite.
Copy !req
1004. But in Norman's case,
he was simply doing everything possible
Copy !req
1005. to keep alive the illusion
of his mother being alive.
Copy !req
1006. And when reality came too close,
Copy !req
1007. when danger or desire
threatened that illusion,
Copy !req
1008. he'd dress up,
even to a cheap wig he bought.
Copy !req
1009. He'd walk about the house,
sit in her chair, speak in her voice.
Copy !req
1010. He tried to be his mother.
Copy !req
1011. And now he is.

1012. That's what I meant when I said
I got the story from the mother.
Copy !req
1013. You see, when the mind
houses two personalities,
Copy !req
1014. there's always a conflict, a battle.
Copy !req
1015. In Norman's case, the battle is over,
Copy !req
1016. and the dominant personality has won.
Copy !req
1017. And the $40,000? Who got that?
Copy !req
1018. The swamp.
These were crimes of passion, not profit.
Copy !req
1019. He feels a little chill.
Can I bring him this blanket?
Copy !req
1020. - Oh, sure.
- All right.
Copy !req
1021. Thank you.
Copy !req
1022. It's sad when a mother
has to speak the words
Copy !req
1023. that condemn her own son,
Copy !req
1024. but I couldn't allow them to believe
that I would commit murder.
Copy !req
1025. They'll put him away now,
as I should have years ago.
Copy !req
1026. He was always bad,
Copy !req
1027. and in the end he intended to tell them
I killed those girls and that man,
Copy !req
1028. as if I could do anything
except just sit and stare,
Copy !req
1029. like one of his stuffed birds.
Copy !req
1030. They know I can't even move a finger,
and I won't.
Copy !req
1031. I'll just sit here and be quiet,
just in case they do suspect me.
Copy !req
1032. They're probably watching me.
Well, let them.
Copy !req
1033. Let them see what kind of a person I am.
Copy !req
1034. I'm not even gonna swat that fly.
Copy !req
1035. I hope they are watching. They'll see.
Copy !req
1036. They'll see and they'll know,
Copy !req
1037. and they'll say,
"Why, she wouldn't even harm a fly."
