Norma calls James from a payphone and asks if she can come over. He is woken up in the middle of his sleep but despite that, acts very comforting towards Norma when she comes over.

She tells him how Norman killed his father.

After going home, she wakes up her sons and tells them that they had to go to the farm so she could talk to Caleb. Norma and Caleb are finally face to face and Caleb falls to her legs saying sorry to her. They both start crying and Norma hugs him. And that’s where it ends for now.
