《贝茨旅馆》第三季最后诺曼•贝茨(弗莱迪•海默 饰)逃离了母亲诺玛(维拉•法梅加 饰)控制他的地下室，并且与布拉德利(妮可拉•佩尔茨 饰)跑了出去，不过最后他打死了布拉德利。第四季开头，诺曼在一片田地中醒来。一个农夫发现他自言自语，并与他对质，最后诺曼被送往县医院。

　　In the Season 3 finale of Bates Motel, Norman Bates (Freddie Highmore) escaped from the basement where his mother Norma (Vera Farmiga) was holding him and ran off with Bradley (Nicola Peltz) -- only to end up bludgeoning her to death.Season 4 begins soon after as Norman wakes up in a field. After a confrontation with a farmer who finds Norman talking to himself, Norman winds up in the county hospital.

　　对于诺玛而言这无疑是最坏的情节。在第三季结局中，诺玛遇到了一间环境良好的私人精神病院的管理者，并谈论接收诺曼的事情，但是一个月的花费至少要两万美元，而且没有医疗保险。她想通过自己的方式来帮助诺曼，如今外界知道诺曼不安定的情况，并且怀疑其母亲的监护能力，诺玛感觉到她正在失去控制权。

　　This is a worst case scenario for Norma, who in the Season 3 finale met with an administrator at a beautiful private mental hospital to discuss admitting Norman, but it would cost at least $20,000 a month without insurance.She wanted to get Norman help on her own terms, and now that outsiders know about Norman's instability and have suspicions about her competency as a parent, she sees that she's losing control.

　　《贝茨旅馆》将于美国时间3月7日周一在A&E首播。

　　Bates Motel premieres Monday, March 7 at 9/8c on A&E.
