‘Bates Motel’ season 2, episode 6 preview: ‘The Plunge,’ and a serious one for Norman Bates

It did not take very long at all for things to get crazy on “Bates Motel.”but week after week, the writers find the way to up the ante to the next level.

Are you ready to take “The Plunge”? We hope so, since next week’s episode is going to have almost everything you could ever ask for. There will be heated confrontations between Norman and Norma, and it could culminate in a shocking moment where Freddie Highmore’s character gets closer than ever than striking out against some of the people that he loves the most.

While it may not serve as the most in-depth teaser in the world, the synopsis below should at least serve to give you a little bit of an idea as to what to expect:

“While a secret threatens Norman’s relationship with his mother, Dylan must deal with an explosive situation.  Also, Emma is put in danger.”

The crazy thing to think of now is that we’ve reached the halfway point in the entire season! This is one of the few reasons that you could possibly have to grumble over a show that is as good as this one; it’s only ten episodes long, which means that if Norman is going to progress into full-on killer, he will have to do it a little bit faster than he would for most other TV series that are out there.

We’ll have some more creepy scoop on what is coming up on this episode soon … but expect it to be one of the most intense hours you have seen to date.
