The Bates are back. 

It’s a season of new beginnings for the Bates family. 

In the hour-long season five premiere episode, the family travels to North Carolina to pick up Warden, Jackson, and Isaiah from sleepaway camp, but not without getting a VIP tour from camp counselor and Tori’s boyfriend, Bobby. 

Could a future courtship be on the horizon for Bobby and Tori? 

While at camp, the Bates have no idea what they’re in for when they are met with a giant scream-inducing swing and some wild water activities. 

Meanwhile, Lawson’s focused on his music career. 

He heads back to the studio to record a duet with country artist, Emily Ann Roberts. 

Later, the whole family gathers together for a special dinner and an unexpected guest stops by to surprise the family with a very big announcement.
