‘Bates Motel’ season 2 spoilers: How Norman Bates handles events in premiere

When “Bates Motel” returns with its second season, it is not going to take a whole lot of time to really get to trying to answer some of the most-important questions when it comes to the show. For example, what in the world happened to Miss Watson? While it may seem pretty obvious that Norman Bates may have done something to her based on what we saw at the end of last season, you are about to find out very soon that there may be much more going on when it comes to this story than what initially meets the eye.

According to TV Guide, there is going to be someone else in the White Pine Bay area who could be revealed as a possible suspect for this killing pretty early on in the new season, and they are going to have a pretty strong motive for doing what they may have done to the teacher.

Does this mean that Freddie Highmore’s character is completely in the clear? Hardly. As a matter of fact, he will continue moving forward to suffer under the weight of what happened to her, whether this be by getting choked-up at her funeral or visiting her grave. When you have a show like this, it is at least obvious on some level how the story is going to end. With that being said, though, there are still a number of questions as to the journey, and that is something that we are looking forward to seeing a little bit more information on as we continue to press onward.

One thing that you can be assured of soon? That the new season will premiere pretty soon. March 3 is really not that far away anymore, and we’ll have some more scoop on everything that happens between now and then.
