How dare you go behind my back to my own son to try and get Norman taken away from me? Who the hell do you think you are?
Someone who loves you and is worried about you. And Norman.
That's nice that that's how you frame it in your head, but how it looks from here is that you are an incredibly presumptuous and arrogant man who thinks he knows what's best for me and my son.
Wow. I'm sorry you see it that way.
No one who loves me could ever do this to me.
No. That's where you're wrong. He's dangerous.
He's my son! You don't think I would know if he was dangerous?
He had an axe in his hand, and he wanted to kill me!
Yeah, well, are you dead? The point is, he didn't! He was angry! He took it out on the shed and on my door. [sighs] You know, we were happy when we were in a bubble, but life isn't a bubble. You know, the second that a little reality crept in, that was it for you. Bam. So much for the stupid bubble.
You can spin it however you want, Norma. It doesn't make it the truth. You just you can't see clearly here 'cause this is about Norman.
Yeah, because he's my son! You're gonna plant yourself on the mountain like you're God and tell me how things work with my son? Wrong. You crossed over a line, and you are never crossing back. I will never trust you again.
No, you left me no choice.
And you left me none.
