Im excited for it and will be mainly watching it rather than the Rockets game. I may record the game and check the reactions on here before watching it.
Good episode, not as intense as recent episodes but I think it set up some interesting stuff for the rest of the season,
It was good but I assume the easy white wash of everything by the Sheriff means that he's on the take as well with the criminal element. Episode kind of veered into straight up comedy at some points but still enjoyed it. The actor just has that creeper look to him, very curious to find out what's going with him and rental agreement.
Finally got around to watching it last night. I can only assume that Norman is going to Spoiler carve one of his women up soon. It seems as though he is starting to lose it easier and more frequently. I'm wondering what weird twists the writers are going to throw at us regarding the Spoiler Asian girl that ran away and how does Romero's complete slate-wiping affect future events. What the heck is that guy involved in? I have a feeling that they are setting us up for a huge ending. I think Abernathy and his fellow "salespeople" are going to add a lot to this story.
Norman is really getting unhinged easily and I agree with your assessment. I was curious about your 2nd spoiler as well, everybody seem to just forgot about it, including Romero.
so, i've watched a little bit of this show. what happened to that girl's dad that crashed the car? how come he looked all burnt?
Because he was set on fire, as was another person, presumably they are involved in some sort of illegal operation in that town involving narcotics and/or sex trafficking
This is a fantastic series. AMC continues to show they have the best writers in the business with all of the great television they put out. My wife seems to think that Sheriff Romero is the big boss of the drug ring. I could see it happening since he's obviously a smart character and there is no way he is oblivious to the fact that his town is a hot bed of drug activity.
Abernathy is a top notch nutcase. It seems like he's the sort of character that can take the series up to a whole new level of being messed up. Plus...seems that there might more going on in that town than just drug trade and sex slaves. And Norman learning taxidermy....hmmmmmmmm. So maybe Emma dies, Norman goes Chuck Testa on her and keeps her around. It seems as though the mental stability of Norma and Norman (and their relationship) is starting to come completed unhinged. And it will be interesting to see how Norma handles future events. When the series started, she was in complete control...and now it seems that though she has no control over anything...which might be why she was trying to reach out to Dylan at the end of the episode. And...could someone verify this for me (my dvr was acting up at the end of the recording)...but was the Spoiler body that Norma found in her house Zack Shelby? And what happened to the Asian girl who ran away? And with Dylan finding out that he will never be able to leave "the business", it seems as though there's going to be an eventual showdown between himself and Abernathy...probably in some bout to protect Norma/Norman. Especially since the trailer show Abernathy dropping some serious threats to Norma.
Abernathy is a serious threat, I think Norma presented herself as in control in the beginning but it's all a facade. When real threats come she starts to crumble regardless of what she says, like her scene with Abernathy. The taxidermy thing is a call back to the original movie, not sure if they'd go toward having Norman do that to Emma but that's just me. Your spoiler, yes that was him. Think you are right about the showdown, it'll either be Romero or Abernathy.
