Title
The Reel Inn's pun, "Baits Motel," alludes to Topanga's motel
Description
The Reel Inn seafood restaurant's neon sign lights up the night at 18661 PCH. A wet-erase blackboard says, "Baits Motel" (Bates Motel), punning on the location of Alfred Hitchcock's horror film "Psycho" (1960), and making a comparison to the frightening appearances of the abandoned Topanga Ranch Motel next door.
