M Mother
Put me closer to the window.
Someone will see you, mother.
M Mother
Are you ashamed of me?
You know why, mother. They've even written about you in the newspapers.
M Mother
Stop your whining, boy. All this fuss over nothing.
Not nothing. I-I saw her. Even the initials on her suitcase, "M.C." Marion Crane.
M Mother
Another of your cheap erotic illusions, out of your cheap erotic imagination. You killed her. The slut deserved it. But she's dead, and the dead don't come back.
M Mother
I never went away, don't you know that by now? You can't get rid of me. I'll always be with you, Norman. Always. Stand up straight and wipe your snotty little nose. If the disgusting little whore is going to upset you so much, just get rid of her.
M Mother
Then maybe I will.
M Mother
You dirty, dirty boy.
But I... I didn't do anything, mother... I didn't do anything, mother. She a nice girl.
But we didn't do anything.
M Mother
You let her come between us.
But this... It isn't right. It isn't natural.
M Mother
It's perfectly natural for a son to love his mother.
God, will you leave me alone, mother? Will you leave me alone?!
M Mother
Get that whore out of my house! Throw her down in the muck and filth where she belongs!
I'll get you for this, mother. I'll get you for this.
M Mother
You haven't got the guts, boy!
You were down there, weren't you mother? Weren't you? I'm glad she didn't die! I'm glad!
M Mother
It's lies. It's all lies. Norman, she's a lying whore.
Tracy Venable Norman! Norman, where are you?
Tracy Venable Norman!
M Mother
Don't let her talk about me like that!
Tracy Venable Norman! Please, Norman, please listen to me! Norman, Mrs. Bates, whoever your are, damn it, doesn't it make any difference in that demented brain of yours?
M Mother
Kill her, boy! Get her! Just like the others! Get her!
Tracy Venable Oh! No! Don't! No! Please! Norman, no!
M Mother
[Norman stabs mother]
Norman! Can't you do anything right? How dare you treat your mother in such... a... way... Norman...
So I don't have the guts, huh?
M Mother
Why can't you leave my poor son, my poor Norman alone?
