Bates Motel
Posted February 11 2016 — 12:48 PM EST
For three seasons, Bates Motel fans have watched Norman Bates’ slow descent into psychosis. But when the A&E drama returns March 7, the character will chart some disturbing new depths, at least when it comes to his tendency to inhabit the character of “Mother.” For the first time, he’s dressing like his mother with his mother, their matching robes a sign that the lines between real life and Norman’s fractured psyche are blurring. EW has an exclusive first look at the moment.
“That image of them looking at their reflections, I think what she sees is that her dreams have indeed become a nightmare,” says actress Vera Farmiga, adding that Norma’s fear of her son is going to spur her into action this season and cause her to realize that, “Maybe the truth is that Norman is an actual impediment to her happiness.
“The only reason she is not achieving her goals is looking back at her,” Farmiga says of the photo. “I think that she realizes there are only a couple mistakes that one can make along the road to truth: Not starting, and not going all the way. I think she’s going to go all the way.”
Of course, Norman is seeing something entirely different, which is another theme of the season. “This season you’re really going to see that they totally are in disagreement in terms of what the truth of the matter is,” Farmiga says. ”I think Norman perceives it in a very different way. What’s so fascinating to watch about them is this enormous push and pull of a love affair that they have as mother and son.”
And for Norma, she has to learn that “the truth may hurt for a little while whereas lies hurt her forever,” Farmiga says. “Above all this season I think what’s going to be different about her is that she’s going to be doing what she knows to be right instead of what she’s convinced herself to be right.” After all, there’s a “price that we all pay for keeping secrets,” she says.
For the first time, fans could see Norma putting herself before her son. “For Norma, this year is really about loving herself enough to do everything it takes for her to achieve integrity,” Farmiga says. “There’s going to be a lot of emotion, a lot of libido, a lot of strife. She’s whipping herself into a new gear this year and it’s going to be very exciting to watch. I’m so delighted to present this season to the fans. I think it’s going to be a big one.”
Lyrics:
I got nothing, got nothing to lose
Time is running out and I'm rolling through
And I'm coming, I'm coming for you
With a hot head and a bad attitude
I wanna take a walk in the wild
I wanna feel hearts collide
I wanna feel alive
I wanna take a walk in the wild
I wanna feel hearts collide
I wanna feel alive
Ohhh, ohhh, ohhh
Come bloody, I got room for two
Theres only one thing thats left to do
Hold steady I've had my eye on you
I'm coming back at you like deja vu
I wanna take a walk in the wild
I wanna feel hearts collide
I wanna feel alive
I wanna take a walk in the wild
I wanna feel hearts collide
I wanna feel alive
I'll be waiting for you
Whenever you're ready
I'll be waiting for you
Whenever you're ready

"Stay Away" on American Idol winner Lee DeWyze's new album "Frames"
I recently wrote and produced the song "Stay Away" on Season 9 American Idol winner Lee DeWyze's new album "Frames". Lee and I wrote the song with Nashville songwriter Shelly Fairchild in Los Angeles, CA. We finished the song in an afternoon and I headed back to my studio, The Lodge, to finish out the track. I ended up playing the banjo, piano, guitars, and did the programming. Thanks to Kobalt and everyone else involved who helped get this song off the ground!
