1:40:04
So he began to think
and speak f or her...
1:40:06
give her half his lif e,
so to speak.
1:40:09
At times he could be both personalities,
carry on conversations.
1:40:14
At other times, the "mother" half
took over completely.
1:40:18
He was never all Norman,
but he was often only "Mother"...
1:40:24
and because he was so
pathologically jealous of her...
1:40:28
he assumed that she
was as jealous of him.
1:40:30
Theref ore, if he f elt a strong
attraction to any other woman...
1:40:36
the "mother" side of him
would go wild.
1:40:41
When he met your sister...
1:40:44
he was touched by her,
aroused by her.
1:40:47
He wanted her.
1:40:50
That set off the jealous "mother"
and "Mother" killed the girl.
1:40:56
After the murder Norman returned
as if from a deep sleep...
1:41:00
and, like a dutiful son, covered up
all traces of the crime...
1:41:04
he was convinced
his "mother" had committed!
1:41:06
Why was he...
dressed like that?
1:41:08
He's a transvestite.
1:41:11
Uh, not exactly.
1:41:14
A man who dresses in women's clothing
in order to achieve a sexual change...
1:41:17
or satisf action,
is a transvestite.
1:41:20
But in Norman's case, he was simply
doing everything possible...
1:41:24
to keep alive the illusion
of his mother being alive.
1:41:28
And when reality
came to close...
1:41:31
when danger or desire
threatened that illusion...
1:41:37
he dressed up, even to
a cheap wig he bought.
1:41:40
He'd walk about the house,
sit in her chair, speak in her voice.
1:41:44
He tried to be
his mother.
1:41:47
And, uh, now he is.
1:41:51
That's what I meant when I said
I got the story from the "mother."
1:41:55
You see, when the mind
houses two personalities...
1:41:59
there's always
a conflict, a battle.
