Norman.

Norman, it's time to get up.

Morning, honey.

You want toast? Here, I'll do this for you. Thanks.

Give me the butter, will you? (GASPS)

Sure.

So, what's up with Norman?

What do you mean?

Well, I just, I walked by his room and his bed was made.

Oh, we were talking in my room, and he fell asleep.

He was just so tired, poor thing.

Hmm, don't you think that's weird?

No, I don't think it's weird.

It happens all the time.

We just stay up late. What difference does it make?

Norman's 18.

He shouldn't be sleeping in the same bed as his mom.

You're overreacting. He just fell asleep.

It's not a big deal.

All right, fine. Okay.

I hear what you're saying.

Okay.

Here's your toast. Thanks.

You headed up to the cabin again?

Yeah, I got a lot to do.

I'm going to take this and eat it in the truck. Okay.

I'll see you tonight.

Okay.

Okay.

Be careful.

Bye, Norma.

Hello?

Hi. I'm looking for Norma Louise Bates.

Who's calling?

This is Ryan Pena from the law firm of Hart,

Stebbins and Pena in Boise, Idaho.

This is she.

Miss Bates, we're the executors of the estate of

Francine Calhoun, your mother.

She died on the 17th. My sincere condolences.

We're working here on the disposition of her estate.

Um...

I'm not interested.

Pardon?

I'm not interested, but thank you for calling.

First day of school, senior year.

It sounds horrible.

School always sounds horrible, but you'll get used to it.

I don't particularly want to get used to it.

I liked being home all summer.

I know. I liked you being home, too.

But you got to go to school.

Besides, it's good for you. You know, meet new people, try new things.

Oh, by the way, my mother died.

Here's your lunch.

Wait, what are you talking about, your mother died?

I got a call this morning.

Yep, she's dead.

And I'm only telling you this

because you might need to know for some legal document someday.

Mother, I'm so sorry.

Are you okay? Do you want me to stay home with you?

No, I'm fine. Like, I haven't spoken to her in 20 years.

She doesn't mean anything to me.

I don't want to go in.

Norman.

Sweetie, what happened with you and Miss Watson,

it's all in the past.

It had nothing to do with you.

No.

I can't. I'm not going.

Norman, stop being dramatic.

Come on, you're just used to being home,

but you gotta rip off that bandage and just go.

I'm not going.

Get out of the car.

Go to school. It's going to be fine, okay?

I'll see you later.

I'll sit with you while you have your lunch, sweetheart.

I'm so glad you're back, Norman.

This year we're starting with the modern poets, with T.S. Eliot.

You'll love him.

"We have lingered in the chambers of the sea

"By sea-girls wreathed with seaweed red

"and brown

"Till human voices wake us,

"and we drown."

Ah!

It's always beautiful to watch it burn.

How many was that in total?

27.

Twenty-seven fields burned down, 43 arrests.

Town is free of this trash now.

You should be a happy man.

Gunner?

Dude.

What are you doing up here?

Remo told me where to find you

before he blew town after all that DEA crap went down.

He said you rented this land. Told me you could use a hand.

I don't need any help.

He said you'd say that.

That I should come anyway.

We'll see.

Mother! Mother!

What happened? I was at school.

I was eating lunch alone, and then...

Tell me.

And then I felt very strange,

and I thought that Miss Watson came

and sat down next to me, and started talking to me.

I'm sorry, Mother.

I mean, do you think you blacked out?

I don't know. It didn't feel like it.

It just all felt very real.

Okay, come here.

I'm sorry.

I ran all the way here.

Hi.

Hi. Hello.

I'm looking for a room for a couple of nights.

Do you have anything available?

Yes. Mmm.

Um, yes, yes, yes, yes, of course.

Come on in, please.

Of course.

Let me just get your info.

Uh, what's your name? Annika Johnson.

And I'll need to see an ID and a credit card.

Okay.

I'm going to put you in room number four.

Here are the keys.

I'm just gonna take him up to the house.

He came home early from school.

He just wasn't feeling very well.

Um, but I'll be back down later if you need anything.

I usually don't need anything.

Okay. Come on.

What you got there?

Uh, plans for a barn.

For the motel?

No, uh, someplace else.

You joining me for lunch?

No. No, no, it's just a quick drop by.

I, um...

Well, I thought we'd continue our conversation about,

you know, the future of things around here,

and I'm going to have to take a more active role, I think...

Sheriff, look,

I think I've had my fill

of what it's like to work in the drug business.

As a boss, I mean.

I just want to have my own little farm.

Okay?

And be legal about it.

And help people out who have glaucoma and anxiety.

Thanks.

And just make enough to get by.

Okay? That's good enough for me.

You know, 99 plants legally with a permit.

I protected you.

I went out of my way to protect you. I know. I know.

Okay, I really appreciate that.

I do.

Okay, but you know if we're not working together,

then I can't protect you anymore. You know that, right?

You'll be on your own.

Yeah, but what I'm doing is legal,

so that shouldn't be a problem, right?

It shouldn't be,

but doesn't mean it won't.

I'll see you around, Dylan.

Hey.

Is your mom here?

No, no, no, she ran to the market.

Can I help you with something?

It's just my ceiling light's out.

I can take a look at it for you.

All right.

Ah.

Excuse me. Yeah, would you? (CHUCKLES) Sure.

Can you hold it while I change the bulb?

Um...
