When Norman left for Pine View, she was happy. She had a family, a good one this time. Her mother was happy, and her new father was never violent. And if he was for his important cop business, he was never violent around his girls. When Norman called Norma one day, informing her that he was planning on going home, things changed. Not the good change this time, the kind of change that only appeared in Ellie's worst nightmares.
