• [first lines] 

  Norma Louise Bates : [about the break-in]  Are you sure we should be cleaning this up? Maybe we should dust for prints or something.

  Sheriff Alex Romero : They wore gloves, Norma. There's no prints.

  Norma Louise Bates : They? Who's they?

  Sheriff Alex Romero : They, he, she, whoever it was.

  Norma Louise Bates : Well, did they have to break my favorite window? That's mean. That's personal. What the hell, Alex? I have been so good. I've totally kept to myself. All I've been thinking about is Norman and getting him better. I've been busy marrying you. I haven't had time to piss anyone off.

• Norma Louise Bates : Well, if you don't mind me asking, what happened to you?

  Chick Hogan : N-no, I don't mind. There was a dog in the road, and I swerved off the road to avoid killing it. Flipped the car three times. When I woke up, the dog was licking my face.

  Norma Louise Bates : That's awful.

  Chick Hogan : Yeah, well, I suppose we all have those moments in life where everything changes in a second.
