"Well it'd take me some time to go through the collection and find the best," you say. "Let's go with Hitchcock for now."

The remote is passed over to you.

"So what features do you have?" you ask as you look at the buttons.

"Here," Raven says as she presses a big white button.

The television automatically goes to an "On Demand" menu.

"You can search for things by using the direction buttons and the OK button to select the letter and all that," Cyborg explains.

You move the cursor around and type in "Alfred Hitchcock" before using OK to press the "ENTER" key. A collection of thumbnails appear to advertise the varous Hitchcock films available.

"Oh wow they've got a good amount," you say. "Hmm, well we might as well go with his most infamous one. 1960's Psycho."

"Ooooh, yes!" Raven says excitedly.

You use OK to select it and it begins with opening credits.

"So this is a horror film?" Starfire asks.

"Psychological horror," you say. "And a powerful one."

"Wish we had popcorn," Raven says.

"We'll just have to make do with potstickers and chow mein," Robin says as he settles in beside Starfire on the other end.

"And veggie--"

"And veggie spring rolls," Robin answers Beast Boy's concerns.

The movie truly begins as a young engaged couple, Marion and Sam, meet on a Friday afternoon during their lunch hours at a hotel in downtown Phoenix, Arizona. They discuss how Sam's debts are what is keeping them from having a wedding, but then return to work.

Marion works at a realtor's office, and as she's returning to work, a client comes in with $40,000 cash to buy a house for his daughter as a wedding gift. He flirts a bit with Marion before the money is put in an envelope and Marion's boss tells her to deposit it in the bank right away. Marion asks if she could take the rest of the day off after that, she's "not feeling well." Her boss allows it, and she leaves.

But Marion doesn't go to the bank, she goes back to her hotel room. Starfire gasps.

"Marion lied!" Starfire says.

"It's alright, Star," Robin chuckles.

Marion packs up her things, thinking about just stealing the money. She decides to do just that, and to leave town for the (fictional) Fairvale, California where Sam lives. Marion wants to use the $40,000 to pay off Sam's debts. However, while stopped at a traffic light in town, her boss crosses the street and sees her, making her nervous. He says nothing to her, and she continues on.

Marion drives into California state limits, but does not reach Fairvale so she pulls over for the night, and settles for sleeping in the car. She's woken up the next morning by a highway patrolman, and it's obvious to him through her sleepy shock that she's nervous about something. However, he also lets her go, and she continues on into Bakersfield.

Marion then visits a used car dealership. She quickly exchanges her 1956 Ford Mainline for a 1957 Ford Custom 300. She continues on US 99 in the rain, and becomes more and more paranoid about her boss and client finding out the $40,000 never made it to the bank. She accidentally takes a wrong turn, so she stops at Bates Motel. Apparently this motel has lost a lot of business after the diversion realignment of the main highway.
