A new promo for Season 2 of “Bates Motel” has arrived, and it shows Norma and Norman enjoying a rare happy moment cutting a rug (and not because there’s someone’s blood on it) along with a taste of the mayhem we’re more used to from the show.

Season 2 of “Bates Motel,” starring Vera Farmiga in her Emmy-nominated role as Norma Bates and Freddie Highmore as Norman, premieres on the A&E Network on Monday, March 3rd, at 9 PM ET/PT, with Episode 2.01, “Gone But Not Forgotten.”

Season 2 Synopsis:
In Season 2 of “Bates Motel,” executive producers Carlton Cuse (“Lost”) and Kerry Ehrin (“Friday Night Lights”) dig deeper into the twisted world of the Bates family. Picking up from last season, Norman (Freddie Highmore) is fixating on Miss Watson’s death while Norma’s mysterious past starts to haunt the family with the introduction of her brother.

Meanwhile, Norman’s brother, Dylan (Max Thieriot), gets more entrenched in the familial drug war that fuels White Pine Bay and finds himself right in the middle of the danger as Bradley (Nicola Peltz), who remains on the hunt to uncover her father’s killer, is driven to precarious extremes. Sheriff Romero (Nestor Carbonell), is caught up on all fronts as everything in town escalates, and Emma (Olivia Cooke) complicates her relationship with Norman as the duo explore new love interests, bringing new and old characters along for the ride.

Guest stars checking into “Bates Motel” throughout the new season are Michael Vartan (“HawthoRNe,” “Alias”), Kathleen Robertson (“Boss”), Paloma Kwiatkowski (Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters), Rebecca Creskoff (“The Practice,” “Hung”), Kenny Johnson (“Sons of Anarchy”), Michael Eklund (88 Minutes, “Supernatural”), and Michael O’Neill (Dallas Buyers Club, “Grey’s Anatomy,” “The West Wing”).
