1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:01,386
Previously on Riverdale...
2
00:00:01,388 --> 00:00:03,821
They're ruining our lives,
and to them it's just a game.
3
00:00:03,823 --> 00:00:06,024
They keep score in some secret playbook.
4
00:00:06,026 --> 00:00:07,859
You want vengeance? I'm with you.
5
00:00:07,861 --> 00:00:10,695
- And I have a plan.
- You like shaming people, Chuck?
6
00:00:10,697 --> 00:00:12,630
Apologize for ruining Polly.
7
00:00:12,632 --> 00:00:13,965
- What the hell?
- Do it, Jason!
8
00:00:13,967 --> 00:00:17,368
- Apologize for what you did to me!
- Look, I'm not Jason!
9
00:00:18,672 --> 00:00:19,871
This is our insurance.
10
00:00:19,873 --> 00:00:22,607
Here, stash it. Keep it safe.
11
00:00:22,609 --> 00:00:24,580
Hermione Lodge will crumble.
12
00:00:24,583 --> 00:00:26,744
Maybe you should've sent
her to jail instead of Hiram.
13
00:00:26,746 --> 00:00:28,272
I heard Mr. and Mrs. Blossom talking.
14
00:00:28,275 --> 00:00:30,215
It sounded like Clifford
Blossom was responsible
15
00:00:30,217 --> 00:00:31,783
for sending Veronica's dad to jail.
16
00:00:31,785 --> 00:00:33,685
Ever since we started
dating you've ignored me,
17
00:00:33,687 --> 00:00:35,386
- you've ditched me.
- Let me make it up to you.
18
00:00:35,388 --> 00:00:36,921
Sorry, Archie, but I won't be bought.
19
00:00:36,924 --> 00:00:38,723
The lawyers are coming over this week
20
00:00:38,725 --> 00:00:40,525
to take our statements
for your dad's hearing.
21
00:00:40,527 --> 00:00:41,693
Am I gonna have to lie?
22
00:00:41,696 --> 00:00:43,762
My father is a criminal.
23
00:00:47,855 --> 00:00:49,174
Weekdays,
24
00:00:49,177 --> 00:00:53,949
from 8:25 a.m. to 3:01 p.m.,
we adhere to a strict regimen.
25
00:00:53,952 --> 00:00:55,952
Everything in our lives controlled.
26
00:00:55,954 --> 00:00:59,122
But then something like the murder
of Jason Blossom happens,
27
00:00:59,124 --> 00:01:02,425
and you realize there is no
such thing as control.
28
00:01:02,427 --> 00:01:04,127
There is only chaos.
29
00:01:08,467 --> 00:01:14,187
Nevertheless, some of us strive to
impose and maintain order
30
00:01:14,189 --> 00:01:17,390
in what is, fundamentally,
an orderless world.
31
00:01:19,978 --> 00:01:23,313
A fact which would
very soon be confirmed
32
00:01:24,149 --> 00:01:26,233
in ways none of us
could have foreseen.
33
00:01:32,124 --> 00:01:33,990
I'm, uh... I'm headed out.
34
00:01:33,993 --> 00:01:36,332
Sorry to be missing your
birthday this weekend, Jug.
35
00:01:36,335 --> 00:01:39,184
Oh, you will not be missing
anything, Mr. Andrews,
36
00:01:39,187 --> 00:01:41,865
I barely anoday.
37
00:01:43,009 --> 00:01:45,869
Arch, can you give me a hand downstairs?
38
00:01:49,095 --> 00:01:52,446
The good news is that
all these divorce papers
39
00:01:52,449 --> 00:01:54,698
and legal mumbo jumbo will be done.
40
00:01:54,700 --> 00:01:57,668
Should be behind us
by the end of the week.
41
00:01:57,671 --> 00:01:59,086
Are you only going to see Mom now
42
00:01:59,088 --> 00:02:00,871
because you and Hermione Lodge...
43
00:02:00,874 --> 00:02:03,788
No. No, son, I ended that.
44
00:02:03,791 --> 00:02:07,210
Being together, working
together, not a good idea.
45
00:02:07,213 --> 00:02:08,712
In that case, then,
46
00:02:09,882 --> 00:02:13,075
why finalize things
in such a final way now?
47
00:02:13,078 --> 00:02:16,450
Sometimes, son, you just
gotta rip the Band-Aid off.
48
00:02:17,859 --> 00:02:20,165
Or you can try and fix things.
49
00:02:20,168 --> 00:02:22,708
We're past that point, Archie.
50
00:02:22,711 --> 00:02:25,184
I spoke to Mom last week, she
didn't mention any of this, Dad.
51
00:02:25,187 --> 00:02:27,451
Your mom moved out two years ago.
52
00:02:27,934 --> 00:02:31,596
She didn't tell you because she
wanted me to be the bearer of bad news.
53
00:02:32,724 --> 00:02:34,565
What if I came with you?
54
00:02:34,568 --> 00:02:36,934
This is between me and your mom.
55
00:02:38,614 --> 00:02:39,913
I'll check in.
56
00:02:49,395 --> 00:02:50,695
What's going on?
57
00:02:50,697 --> 00:02:54,235
Veronica, this is Paul Sowerberry,
your father's attorney.
58
00:02:54,238 --> 00:02:55,907
He's here to prep us for our statements
59
00:02:55,910 --> 00:02:57,234
and help at your dad's hearing.
60
00:02:57,237 --> 00:03:00,271
Except, I told you,
Mom, I'm not giving one.
61
00:03:00,273 --> 00:03:01,995
- Not one you'd want.
- Just...
62
00:03:01,998 --> 00:03:03,474
You won't be asked any questions
63
00:03:03,476 --> 00:03:05,643
about your father's
business arrangements.
64
00:03:05,645 --> 00:03:07,965
We just need you and your
mother to speak to his character.
65
00:03:07,968 --> 00:03:09,213
It'll humanize him.
66
00:03:09,215 --> 00:03:11,048
Which could mean a lesser sentence.
67
00:03:11,050 --> 00:03:12,116
If you don't make a statement,
68
00:03:12,118 --> 00:03:14,552
well, that's problematic and damaging.
69
00:03:14,554 --> 00:03:16,520
I've already told her all of this.
70
00:03:16,522 --> 00:03:19,357
Well, Dad made his bed.
And I'm late for school.
71
00:03:20,493 --> 00:03:23,127
Veronica, there's something
we need to talk to you about.
72
00:03:23,130 --> 00:03:24,362
Bring it.
73
00:03:24,365 --> 00:03:27,015
After the morning I've had, I'm
ready for just about anything.
74
00:03:27,018 --> 00:03:29,233
Okay, well, Archie
was with the Blossoms.
75
00:03:29,235 --> 00:03:32,503
While their Board was in town, he, um...
76
00:03:33,837 --> 00:03:35,990
Why don't you tell her? You were there.
77
00:03:37,207 --> 00:03:39,574
Why is this suddenly feeling
like a friendtervention?
78
00:03:39,576 --> 00:03:42,077
I overheard Mr. Blossom
say he's the one responsible
79
00:03:42,079 --> 00:03:44,446
for your dad being
arrested and put in jail.
80
00:03:46,817 --> 00:03:48,049
Are you kidding?
81
00:03:48,846 --> 00:03:50,619
Why the hell would Clifford Blossom
82
00:03:50,621 --> 00:03:52,721
have anything to do
with why he's in prison?
83
00:03:55,926 --> 00:03:58,727
Hey, you may or may not know this,
84
00:03:58,729 --> 00:04:01,830
but it's Jughead's birthday.
85
00:04:03,033 --> 00:04:05,567
What? And he didn't say anything?
86
00:04:05,569 --> 00:04:08,203
It's tomorrow, and he doesn't
like making a big deal out of it.
87
00:04:08,205 --> 00:04:10,672
Every year, he goes to a
double feature at the Bijou.
88
00:04:10,674 --> 00:04:12,140
It's like this tradition.
89
00:04:12,426 --> 00:04:14,709
Last few years, I've
been his movie-buddy.
90
00:04:14,712 --> 00:04:16,044
But now that he has a girlfriend...
91
00:04:16,046 --> 00:04:17,412
Well, of course, I'll take him.
92
00:04:17,414 --> 00:04:18,713
But you should still come with us.
93
00:04:18,715 --> 00:04:20,268
No. I don't wanna be a third wheel.
94
00:04:20,271 --> 00:04:22,550
Come on. It'll be like old times.
95
00:04:22,552 --> 00:04:24,019
The Three Musketeers.
96
00:04:24,524 --> 00:04:28,590
Actually, Archie, there
were four Musketeers.
97
00:04:29,326 --> 00:04:30,892
I'll see you later, Betty.
98
00:04:30,894 --> 00:04:32,093
Okay.
99
00:04:33,363 --> 00:04:34,429
Yeah, this is Jones.
100
00:04:34,431 --> 00:04:37,932
Mr. Jones, hi, this is Betty Cooper.
101
00:04:37,934 --> 00:04:40,101
- Jughead's...
- Girlfriend, yeah, I remember.
102
00:04:40,104 --> 00:04:44,172
Great, well, I'm calling because
it's Jughead's birthday tomorrow,
103
00:04:44,174 --> 00:04:46,908
and I wanted to see
if maybe you would come
104
00:04:46,910 --> 00:04:49,511
see a movie with us, maybe grab dinner?
105
00:04:50,280 --> 00:04:51,546
Does he know you're calling me?
106
00:04:51,548 --> 00:04:54,516
No, I thought maybe I'd surprise him.
107
00:04:54,519 --> 00:04:56,409
Oh, man.
108
00:04:56,412 --> 00:04:58,520
There's one thing
that Jughead likes less
109
00:04:58,522 --> 00:05:00,555
than surprises, and that's his birthday.
110
00:05:00,557 --> 00:05:02,691
Kid's never even had a
party, never wanted one...
111
00:05:02,693 --> 00:05:04,759
- What? Never?
- Mmm-hmm.
112
00:05:04,761 --> 00:05:08,630
Anyway, I think the best gift
that I could give to Jughead
113
00:05:08,632 --> 00:05:09,664
would be to stay away.
114
00:05:09,667 --> 00:05:11,534
But I appreciate the call, Betty.
115
00:05:11,537 --> 00:05:12,737
Okay.
116
00:05:15,138 --> 00:05:17,472
Anyway, enough about my drama.
117
00:05:17,474 --> 00:05:19,808
Betty, you were saying something
about Jughead's birthday?
118
00:05:19,810 --> 00:05:21,810
Yeah. Just that Mr. Jones told me
119
00:05:21,812 --> 00:05:24,546
Jughead's never had a birthday party.
120
00:05:25,315 --> 00:05:26,815
Let's have one for him.
121
00:05:26,817 --> 00:05:28,683
Like, a low-key surprise party.
122
00:05:28,685 --> 00:05:30,952
- Uh, no, no.
- That's a fantastic idea.
123
00:05:30,954 --> 00:05:32,320
Jughead doesn't like his birthday.
124
00:05:32,322 --> 00:05:33,788
Everybody says that, nobody means it.
125
00:05:33,790 --> 00:05:34,989
Jughead is a lone wolf.
126
00:05:34,991 --> 00:05:36,958
Okay. Ignoring the negativity.
127
00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:38,093
Betty, you know me,
128
00:05:38,095 --> 00:05:40,662
- any excuse to wear a cute party dress.
- Yeah.
129
00:05:40,664 --> 00:05:44,933
Okay, so I'm thinking a quaint
gathering, inner-circle only.
130
00:05:44,935 --> 00:05:48,002
Oh, my God, don't turn around.
131
00:05:59,483 --> 00:06:03,284
Holy Chuck, I think his lats got bigger.
132
00:06:03,286 --> 00:06:05,653
Not that I care, because
he's evil incarnate.
133
00:06:05,655 --> 00:06:07,021
What's Chuck Clayton doing back?
134
00:06:07,023 --> 00:06:08,523
He got suspended, not expelled.
135
00:06:08,525 --> 00:06:11,326
Even though he should have been
drawn and quartered for what he did.
136
00:06:11,329 --> 00:06:12,495
Oh, my God.
137
00:06:13,022 --> 00:06:14,562
Get away from her, Chuck.
138
00:06:14,564 --> 00:06:18,162
Easy. Look, I only came
over here to apologize.
139
00:06:18,165 --> 00:06:19,901
You don't have to go
Dark Betty on me again.
140
00:06:19,903 --> 00:06:21,336
I'm not going!
141
00:06:24,339 --> 00:06:26,105
I'm not going Dark anything.
142
00:06:27,577 --> 00:06:28,910
Ethel, is Chuck bothering you?
143
00:06:29,519 --> 00:06:31,185
You can relax, Betty, it's fine.
144
00:06:32,115 --> 00:06:34,613
Yeah, Betty, we're fine.
145
00:06:34,616 --> 00:06:37,419
The real question is, are you?
146
00:06:52,636 --> 00:06:54,602
What was he doing? Accosting her?
147
00:06:54,604 --> 00:06:57,806
No, he was... Apologizing.
148
00:06:57,808 --> 00:06:58,983
Oh, I'm so sure.
149
00:06:58,986 --> 00:07:01,910
Chuck Clayton doesn't have a contrite
bone in his muscle-bound body.
150
00:07:01,912 --> 00:07:03,812
You know what, can we
talk about something else?
151
00:07:03,814 --> 00:07:05,914
Like... Like Jughead's surprise party.
152
00:07:10,020 --> 00:07:11,252
Betty?
153
00:07:13,290 --> 00:07:16,124
Look, there's a lot I can't
do, a lot I can't control.
154
00:07:16,127 --> 00:07:17,725
But I can damn well make sure
155
00:07:17,727 --> 00:07:19,567
my boyfriend has the
best birthday of his life.
156
00:07:19,981 --> 00:07:21,469
Screw it. I'm with Betty.
157
00:07:21,472 --> 00:07:23,493
My dad's away. We can do it at my house.
158
00:07:23,496 --> 00:07:24,933
We could all use a good time.
159
00:07:24,935 --> 00:07:26,928
Now you're talking my language.
160
00:07:26,931 --> 00:07:28,524
It's gonna be epic.
161
00:07:28,527 --> 00:07:31,863
- Synced and corrected by VitoSilans -

162
00:07:37,767 --> 00:07:39,901
Mr. Jones,
163
00:07:39,903 --> 00:07:42,698
I didn't mean to ambush you.
164
00:07:42,701 --> 00:07:45,506
I know you don't do birthdays,
165
00:07:45,508 --> 00:07:47,308
but Archie and I are having
166
00:07:47,310 --> 00:07:49,877
a few of Jughead's friends
over at Archie's house.
167
00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:54,263
And I bet it would mean so
much to Jughead if you came.
168
00:07:54,266 --> 00:07:57,585
- Man, you don't quit, do you?
- Rarely, if ever.
169
00:07:57,588 --> 00:07:59,754
I really wanna do
something special for him.
170
00:07:59,756 --> 00:08:01,389
And you being there...
171
00:08:01,986 --> 00:08:03,285
That would be special.
172
00:08:06,444 --> 00:08:07,844
Great news, Betty.
173
00:08:07,847 --> 00:08:11,165
I just had a terrific meeting
with Principal Weatherbee,
174
00:08:11,167 --> 00:08:13,200
who agrees that the Blue and Gold
175
00:08:13,202 --> 00:08:15,736
can benefit greatly from
my professional guidance
176
00:08:15,738 --> 00:08:17,905
- as your new advisor.
- That's great, Mom.
177
00:08:17,907 --> 00:08:19,307
So what are we working on?
178
00:08:19,309 --> 00:08:21,943
A list of supplies for
Jughead's birthday party.
179
00:08:21,946 --> 00:08:25,126
You're really falling for
this Jones boy, aren't you?
180
00:08:25,129 --> 00:08:28,482
Mom, when you and Dad started dating,
181
00:08:28,485 --> 00:08:31,719
did you tell him everything
182
00:08:31,722 --> 00:08:33,521
about yourself?
183
00:08:33,523 --> 00:08:36,123
I sure did, and I wish I hadn't.
184
00:08:36,126 --> 00:08:38,392
I shared things with your father,
185
00:08:38,394 --> 00:08:41,329
my secrets, fears, doubts.
186
00:08:42,231 --> 00:08:43,864
And he ended up using them against me.
187
00:08:43,866 --> 00:08:44,763
What secrets?
188
00:08:44,766 --> 00:08:47,101
Let's just say that
there are some things
189
00:08:47,103 --> 00:08:49,003
about myself that I struggle with.
190
00:08:49,006 --> 00:08:51,272
I trust Jughead, Mom.
191
00:08:51,274 --> 00:08:54,041
Of course you do. And you should.
192
00:08:54,642 --> 00:08:56,275
But just not with everything.
193
00:09:01,150 --> 00:09:04,452
So... A John Landis double
feature at the Bijou.
194
00:09:05,074 --> 00:09:07,888
American Werewolf in London
and Animal House.
195
00:09:07,890 --> 00:09:09,690
That's awesome. Except...
196
00:09:09,692 --> 00:09:11,125
You're going with Betty instead.
197
00:09:11,127 --> 00:09:13,620
You told her about my birthday?
198
00:09:13,623 --> 00:09:16,063
Dude, come on. That's a primal betrayal.
199
00:09:16,065 --> 00:09:17,832
Why do you hate your
birthday so much, Jug?
200
00:09:19,055 --> 00:09:20,821
PTSD from when I was a kid.
201
00:09:22,705 --> 00:09:25,740
I don't know. Things were
always messed up at home.
202
00:09:25,742 --> 00:09:27,041
Usually because of my dad.
203
00:09:27,043 --> 00:09:29,649
And then there was this arbitrary day,
204
00:09:29,652 --> 00:09:33,184
that we would just get together
and pretend things were great,
205
00:09:33,187 --> 00:09:34,882
we were normal.
206
00:09:35,885 --> 00:09:37,894
And it just made me feel really lonely.
207
00:09:40,699 --> 00:09:41,956
What's all this?
208
00:09:41,958 --> 00:09:44,592
Dad's files from the basement, Mom.
209
00:09:44,595 --> 00:09:46,827
Archie overhead Mr. Blossom
210
00:09:46,829 --> 00:09:48,195
say that he's the one responsible
211
00:09:48,197 --> 00:09:49,563
for putting Dad in jail.
212
00:09:50,366 --> 00:09:51,665
So I did some digging.
213
00:09:51,667 --> 00:09:54,101
And found this spreadsheet
of monthly payments
214
00:09:54,103 --> 00:09:56,470
from Blossom Maple
Farms to Lodge Industries
215
00:09:56,472 --> 00:09:58,806
until about five months
ago, when they stopped.
216
00:09:58,809 --> 00:10:00,908
When your father was arrested.
217
00:10:00,910 --> 00:10:02,143
There's more.
218
00:10:02,145 --> 00:10:05,046
The payments, which are
significant, by the way,
219
00:10:05,048 --> 00:10:07,548
have been happening for 75 years.
220
00:10:07,550 --> 00:10:09,150
That's a ton of money.
221
00:10:09,152 --> 00:10:11,519
What if Clifford implicated Daddy
222
00:10:11,521 --> 00:10:13,254
to get out of paying the monthly fee?
223
00:10:13,257 --> 00:10:15,723
I wouldn't put it past
the wig-wearing monster.
224
00:10:15,725 --> 00:10:17,658
- We should tell Dad's lawyers.
- Well, hold on.
225
00:10:17,660 --> 00:10:20,661
If Clifford did orchestrate
your father's arrest,
226
00:10:20,663 --> 00:10:22,563
people might think that
Hiram had something to do
227
00:10:22,565 --> 00:10:24,198
with Jason Blossom's murder.
228
00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:25,533
Ronnie?
229
00:10:25,536 --> 00:10:26,528
You got to let this go.
230
00:10:26,531 --> 00:10:27,802
You don't think Dad could, in any way,
231
00:10:27,804 --> 00:10:31,405
be responsible for
Jason's murder, do you?
232
00:10:31,407 --> 00:10:33,507
No, honey, look, don't make things worse
233
00:10:33,509 --> 00:10:35,743
by asking questions that
no one else is asking.
234
00:10:36,555 --> 00:10:39,847
And please, God, do not
bring the Blossoms into this.
235
00:10:39,849 --> 00:10:41,148
And that includes Cheryl.
236
00:10:42,652 --> 00:10:46,687
One, two, three, four,
five, six, seven, eight.
237
00:10:46,689 --> 00:10:49,523
One, two, three, four... Stop.
238
00:10:52,079 --> 00:10:53,445
You're late, Veronica,
239
00:10:53,448 --> 00:10:55,763
we've already reviewed the new
choreography for Homecoming.
240
00:10:55,765 --> 00:10:57,198
That means you'll be in the
back, where your presence
241
00:10:57,200 --> 00:10:58,566
will do the least amount of damage.
242
00:10:58,568 --> 00:11:00,101
With you front and center, no doubt.
243
00:11:00,103 --> 00:11:01,302
But of course.
244
00:11:01,304 --> 00:11:02,937
I do have the maddest
skills on this squad.
245
00:11:02,939 --> 00:11:04,138
And because you're a Blossom,
246
00:11:04,140 --> 00:11:06,440
we have to accept whatever
you say as gospel truth?
247
00:11:06,442 --> 00:11:09,176
You're welcome to challenge
me, Veronica, but you'll lose.
248
00:11:09,178 --> 00:11:11,846
We live in a democratic society, Cheryl.
249
00:11:11,848 --> 00:11:15,082
Let's let the Vixens
decide who's cherry on top.
250
00:11:15,085 --> 00:11:16,745
- Challenge accepted.
- Great.
251
00:12:22,084 --> 00:12:23,551
All those for Cheryl?
252
00:12:26,218 --> 00:12:28,055
All those for Veronica?
253
00:12:34,467 --> 00:12:36,067
Never cross a Lodge.
254
00:12:36,632 --> 00:12:37,865
Come on, girls.
255
00:12:43,906 --> 00:12:46,574
You catatonic bimbos didn't even vote.
256
00:12:46,576 --> 00:12:49,843
So you stuttering sapheads are too
dim to exercise your own rights,
257
00:12:49,845 --> 00:12:52,146
and you've got the combined
vocabulary of a baked potato.
258
00:12:52,148 --> 00:12:54,648
Consider this your last
practice as River Vixens,
259
00:12:54,650 --> 00:12:56,951
and your last week as
my social handmaidens.
260
00:12:56,954 --> 00:12:59,279
You're fired on all fronts.
261
00:12:59,282 --> 00:13:01,755
That's all. Shoo, bitches.
262
00:13:12,435 --> 00:13:14,468
- Hey, Dad, what's up?
- Just checking in.
263
00:13:14,471 --> 00:13:17,236
I felt bad we didn't get the
chance to talk more before I left.
264
00:13:17,239 --> 00:13:19,680
Yeah, well, you kind
of shut me down, Dad.
265
00:13:19,683 --> 00:13:22,009
You seen Mom yet?
266
00:13:22,011 --> 00:13:23,911
No. We were gonna have dinner, but...
267
00:13:23,913 --> 00:13:25,412
- But what?
- We decided it would be better
268
00:13:25,414 --> 00:13:29,049
to meet tomorrow
morning, with the lawyers.
269
00:13:29,051 --> 00:13:30,751
Right. 'Cause things are so bad,
270
00:13:30,753 --> 00:13:32,653
you can't talk without a mediator.
271
00:13:33,405 --> 00:13:35,189
Dad, I gotta go, bye.
272
00:14:06,746 --> 00:14:08,746
Okay, so you're the worst.
273
00:14:10,093 --> 00:14:12,693
But it just so happens
that both our archnemesi,
274
00:14:12,696 --> 00:14:15,329
Betty Cooper and Veronica Lodge,
275
00:14:15,332 --> 00:14:19,039
will be at a little shindig at
that chowderhead dchie's house.
276
00:14:23,843 --> 00:14:26,377
Wanna team-up for a
little destruction, Chuck?
277
00:14:32,997 --> 00:14:35,809
Mr. Sowerberry, let me
tell you what I think happened.
278
00:14:35,812 --> 00:14:38,958
The Blossoms agreed to pay
my family a fee in perpetuity.
279
00:14:38,961 --> 00:14:41,582
Clifford Blossom tried
to end this agreement
280
00:14:41,585 --> 00:14:44,489
so he could stop paying my
family after all these decades.
281
00:14:44,492 --> 00:14:47,834
And when my father,
being my father, refused,
282
00:14:47,837 --> 00:14:50,844
it was Clifford who called the
police and got him arrested.
283
00:14:50,847 --> 00:14:52,727
That's what I'm thinking.
284
00:14:52,729 --> 00:14:54,707
I can't confirm or deny...
285
00:14:54,710 --> 00:14:56,849
And the reason this hasn't come out yet
286
00:14:56,852 --> 00:15:00,467
is because it might make my
Dad look like a murder suspect?
287
00:15:00,470 --> 00:15:03,175
That is our concern, yes.
288
00:15:03,178 --> 00:15:05,546
Have you changed your mind
about making a statement?
289
00:15:05,549 --> 00:15:08,174
If anything, I'm less inclined.
290
00:15:08,177 --> 00:15:11,177
I told your father that you were...
291
00:15:11,180 --> 00:15:14,235
Conflicted about helping him.
292
00:15:19,308 --> 00:15:20,941
"My darling daughter.
293
00:15:20,943 --> 00:15:22,909
If you do not testify on my behalf,
294
00:15:23,675 --> 00:15:26,913
I'm afraid your poor mother might
be drawn into this awful mess.
295
00:15:26,916 --> 00:15:30,636
It pains me to say, but she is not
nearly as innocent as you believe.
296
00:15:34,490 --> 00:15:36,757
Think carefully about
your next move, Veronica.
297
00:15:37,726 --> 00:15:40,779
The rest of your
life, and your mother's,
298
00:15:40,782 --> 00:15:42,696
will be decided by it."
299
00:15:47,296 --> 00:15:48,800
Hey, I was talking to Kevin.
300
00:15:48,803 --> 00:15:50,340
He told me that you and Chuck
301
00:15:50,343 --> 00:15:53,077
had some scene in the
cafeteria yesterday.
302
00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:54,446
It wasn't a big deal.
303
00:15:58,414 --> 00:16:01,181
What exactly happened
between you guys that night?
304
00:16:01,184 --> 00:16:04,518
Veronica asked me to keep
the details under wraps, okay?
305
00:16:06,622 --> 00:16:08,688
Yeah. All right. No worries.
306
00:16:08,691 --> 00:16:12,759
I only really asked because you
made it sound like you were upset.
307
00:16:12,762 --> 00:16:14,895
If I was upset about anything,
308
00:16:14,897 --> 00:16:16,730
it was that I had to
hear about your birthday
309
00:16:16,732 --> 00:16:18,732
from Archie and not you, Jug.
310
00:16:19,268 --> 00:16:21,268
Yeah, well...
311
00:16:21,978 --> 00:16:24,785
I didn't think you were an
American Werewolf kind of girl.
312
00:16:25,674 --> 00:16:28,141
Ooh. That's where you're
wrong, Jughead Jones.
313
00:16:28,144 --> 00:16:30,477
I'm all about the beast within.
314
00:16:33,094 --> 00:16:35,949
If it's a double feature, does that
mean I have time to go to the bathroom?
315
00:16:35,951 --> 00:16:37,217
I'd hold it, Ethel.
316
00:16:42,424 --> 00:16:44,024
Surprise!
317
00:16:46,495 --> 00:16:48,361
Do I look like Jughead to you?
318
00:16:49,631 --> 00:16:51,898
Oh. Betty just texted
me. They're almost here.
319
00:16:51,900 --> 00:16:53,400
You've met Joaquin, right?
320
00:16:53,402 --> 00:16:54,734
I haven't had the pleasure.
321
00:16:55,509 --> 00:16:58,738
Also I thought it was
inner-circle only tonight?
322
00:16:58,740 --> 00:17:01,641
Joaquin's my boyfriend,
that makes him inner-circle.
323
00:17:01,644 --> 00:17:05,512
Uh-huh, well, I just came from the most
insane meeting with my dad's lawyer.
324
00:17:05,514 --> 00:17:08,949
Between his upcoming hearing and his
potential involvement in Jason's murder,
325
00:17:08,951 --> 00:17:11,251
not to mention my mom's,
I'm in a foul mood.
326
00:17:11,253 --> 00:17:12,619
Guys, they're really coming this time.
327
00:17:12,621 --> 00:17:13,820
Everybody hide.
328
00:17:14,403 --> 00:17:15,969
Ugh, I'm so over this.
329
00:17:23,031 --> 00:17:26,199
Surprise!
330
00:17:26,201 --> 00:17:28,635
This is why we left the double feature
331
00:17:28,638 --> 00:17:30,337
Happy birthday, bro.
332
00:17:30,340 --> 00:17:32,586
You really shouldn't have.
333
00:17:32,589 --> 00:17:35,642
Ugh, you reek. Are you drunk?
334
00:17:35,644 --> 00:17:36,810
No.
335
00:17:39,414 --> 00:17:41,548
Thanks, Veronica. Thanks, everyone.
336
00:17:42,077 --> 00:17:44,384
- Oh, it's Kevin!
- Happy birthday, bud.
337
00:17:44,387 --> 00:17:46,686
This is my boyfriend, Joaquin.
338
00:17:46,688 --> 00:17:48,655
Hey, nice to meet you.
339
00:17:48,657 --> 00:17:51,444
Um, has anyone seen Betty?
340
00:17:52,113 --> 00:17:56,708
♪ Happy birthday to you ♪
341
00:17:57,169 --> 00:18:01,799
♪ Happy birthday to you ♪
342
00:18:01,802 --> 00:18:07,420
♪ Happy birthday dear Jughead ♪
343
00:18:07,423 --> 00:18:12,447
♪ Happy birthday to you ♪
344
00:18:16,118 --> 00:18:17,748
That was haunting, Betty.
345
00:18:19,421 --> 00:18:21,693
Blow out the candles and make a wish.
346
00:18:23,192 --> 00:18:25,625
I wish it were just the
two of us right now.
347
00:18:31,633 --> 00:18:32,999
One blow!
348
00:18:36,168 --> 00:18:37,447
Veronica?
349
00:18:38,874 --> 00:18:40,574
The stuff with your dad?
350
00:18:40,576 --> 00:18:42,342
It's just the tip of the iceberg.
351
00:18:42,344 --> 00:18:43,645
I don't want to talk about it.
352
00:18:43,648 --> 00:18:44,981
Okay.
353
00:18:45,948 --> 00:18:46,980
You want a drink?
354
00:18:46,982 --> 00:18:48,448
Isn't it the New York sophisticate
355
00:18:48,450 --> 00:18:50,750
who's supposed to corrupt
the sweet small-town boy?
356
00:18:55,524 --> 00:18:57,057
My dad's visiting my mom.
357
00:18:58,393 --> 00:19:01,069
They're about to finalize the divorce.
358
00:19:01,072 --> 00:19:02,996
God, Archie, if my mom had
anything to do with that...
359
00:19:02,998 --> 00:19:04,397
No. This was them.
360
00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:06,533
My mom wanted to leave Riverdale,
361
00:19:06,535 --> 00:19:08,001
my dad wanted to stay.
362
00:19:08,770 --> 00:19:10,704
I had to choose, and I chose my dad.
363
00:19:11,691 --> 00:19:14,741
Forget it. It's nothing compared
to what you're going through.
364
00:19:17,212 --> 00:19:18,878
He threatened me, Archie.
365
00:19:19,731 --> 00:19:23,450
Said he would destroy my mom if I
didn't make a statement on his behalf.
366
00:19:23,452 --> 00:19:25,653
Said she was just as guilty as he was.
367
00:19:26,955 --> 00:19:29,089
And maybe he's lying or maybe he isn't.
368
00:19:29,091 --> 00:19:32,025
And maybe he killed
Jason Blossom, and...
369
00:19:36,193 --> 00:19:37,492
Oh, sorry.
370
00:19:38,967 --> 00:19:40,934
Just coming to get ice cream, so...
371
00:19:40,936 --> 00:19:42,202
Is everything okay?
372
00:19:42,204 --> 00:19:45,272
Yeah, no, I'm just not in a
party mood like I usually am.
373
00:19:45,274 --> 00:19:48,008
- That makes two of us.
- Whoa. Wait.
374
00:19:48,011 --> 00:19:51,198
You're not actually upset that
I threw you a party, are you?
375
00:19:51,201 --> 00:19:53,656
It is nice, Betty. I appreciate it.
376
00:19:53,659 --> 00:19:55,115
It's just I would be happier
377
00:19:55,117 --> 00:19:57,117
if it was just the four
of us in a booth at Pop's.
378
00:19:57,119 --> 00:19:58,285
Yeah. But we always do that.
379
00:19:58,287 --> 00:19:59,819
I wanted to do something special.
380
00:19:59,822 --> 00:20:01,921
"The road to hell is paved
with good intentions."
381
00:20:01,923 --> 00:20:04,491
Why is everything so doom
and gloom with you, Jug?
382
00:20:04,493 --> 00:20:06,059
Why can't it just be normal for once?
383
00:20:06,061 --> 00:20:09,229
I'm not normal, I'm
not wired to be normal.
384
00:20:12,009 --> 00:20:14,053
How many more people did
you invite to this thing?
385
00:20:14,056 --> 00:20:15,735
No one. Inner-circle only.
386
00:20:21,124 --> 00:20:23,109
Did you really think
you could have a party
387
00:20:23,111 --> 00:20:24,377
without inviting moi?
388
00:20:25,003 --> 00:20:26,235
Or me?
389
00:20:26,795 --> 00:20:28,749
Archie, where do you want the kegs?
390
00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:33,768
Screw it! One in the
kitchen, one in the backyard.
391
00:20:58,987 --> 00:21:00,720
Why are they doing this?
392
00:21:00,722 --> 00:21:02,889
They're agents of chaos, Kevin.
393
00:21:02,891 --> 00:21:05,223
They don't need a reason.
394
00:21:05,226 --> 00:21:09,137
But if I had to guess? Payback.
395
00:21:11,766 --> 00:21:14,267
Dude, Valerie just got here.
You think she wants me back?
396
00:21:14,269 --> 00:21:15,434
Archie, as my blood-brother,
397
00:21:15,436 --> 00:21:17,036
it was your sole responsibility
398
00:21:17,038 --> 00:21:20,206
to ensure that something like
this never happened on my birthday.
399
00:21:20,208 --> 00:21:21,751
And now we're here.
400
00:21:21,754 --> 00:21:23,287
In the middle of a Seth Rogen movie.
401
00:21:23,289 --> 00:21:25,494
This was Betty's idea, okay?
I just went along with it.
402
00:21:25,497 --> 00:21:27,433
- It's so not me.
- It doesn't matter, Jughead,
403
00:21:27,436 --> 00:21:28,549
you're her boyfriend now.
404
00:21:28,552 --> 00:21:30,119
- What does that mean?
- It means
405
00:21:30,122 --> 00:21:32,630
you're getting your birthday
party whether you want one or not.
406
00:21:36,220 --> 00:21:37,920
Dad, hey.
407
00:21:38,366 --> 00:21:39,871
Happy birthday, Jughead.
408
00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:43,012
How are you, Mr. Jones?
409
00:21:43,679 --> 00:21:46,577
Happy to be here,
celebrating with my son.
410
00:21:49,146 --> 00:21:50,812
Didn't realize you had so many friends.
411
00:21:50,815 --> 00:21:51,981
I don't.
412
00:21:52,941 --> 00:21:54,941
And fair warning. You're
the only adult here.
413
00:21:54,943 --> 00:21:56,275
So I gather.
414
00:21:56,278 --> 00:21:59,358
- Where can I put this?
- There's a table in the den.
415
00:22:00,469 --> 00:22:01,668
Dad.
416
00:22:03,851 --> 00:22:07,118
- Did Betty call you?
- Yeah, she came by too.
417
00:22:07,121 --> 00:22:09,155
She knows what she wants, that one.
418
00:22:09,819 --> 00:22:11,152
I'll be back.
419
00:22:19,767 --> 00:22:21,518
Do you ever go down to Sweetwater River?
420
00:22:21,521 --> 00:22:23,936
- To what, fool around?
- Yeah.
421
00:22:24,672 --> 00:22:26,772
- Do you?
- I've been once or twice.
422
00:22:30,387 --> 00:22:32,020
Mmm, mmm, mmm.
423
00:22:34,558 --> 00:22:37,225
You can cut the sexual
tension in here with a knife.
424
00:22:38,419 --> 00:22:39,719
What's up, Joaquin?
425
00:22:39,722 --> 00:22:41,120
Nothing.
426
00:22:41,122 --> 00:22:43,623
Kevin, you know FP, Jughead's dad?
427
00:22:43,625 --> 00:22:44,690
Yeah, we've met.
428
00:22:44,692 --> 00:22:46,592
You kicked me out of the Whyte Wyrm.
429
00:22:46,594 --> 00:22:48,127
Good times. Joaquin...
430
00:22:48,896 --> 00:22:50,296
You wanna show me where the can is?
431
00:22:50,299 --> 00:22:51,964
- Yeah, it's right...
- Yeah, um...
432
00:22:51,966 --> 00:22:53,399
I'll show you.
433
00:23:13,888 --> 00:23:15,221
What is that middle-aged Serpent
434
00:23:15,223 --> 00:23:16,589
doing at a high school kegger?
435
00:23:16,592 --> 00:23:17,990
Are you serious? You don't know?
436
00:23:17,992 --> 00:23:19,592
Veronica, that's Jughead's dad.
437
00:23:20,361 --> 00:23:21,894
- Really.
- Yeah.
438
00:23:22,730 --> 00:23:24,363
And the plot thickens.
439
00:23:35,476 --> 00:23:36,876
Betty.
440
00:23:37,420 --> 00:23:39,445
- You here to roofie me again?
- No, Chuck,
441
00:23:40,815 --> 00:23:42,481
I'm going to ask you to leave.
442
00:23:42,483 --> 00:23:43,949
- Nicely.
- Nicely?
443
00:23:44,613 --> 00:23:47,286
Because, what, you're back
to being the nice girl now?
444
00:23:47,288 --> 00:23:49,288
Betty, what you and Veronica did
445
00:23:49,290 --> 00:23:51,492
when you guys got me kicked
off the football team,
446
00:23:51,495 --> 00:23:54,560
you ruined any chance I had
of playing for Notre Dame.
447
00:23:54,563 --> 00:23:56,362
Hell, for any good school.
448
00:23:56,798 --> 00:24:01,667
I'm sorry that after you
sexually harassed those girls,
449
00:24:01,669 --> 00:24:04,437
that there were actual
consequences, Chuck.
450
00:24:06,530 --> 00:24:07,996
That night, I saw the real you.
451
00:24:12,280 --> 00:24:13,579
The dark you.
452
00:24:14,578 --> 00:24:16,449
The Betty that I actually think about
453
00:24:16,451 --> 00:24:18,117
every night when I'm laying in bed.
454
00:24:25,126 --> 00:24:27,960
You're the last person I expected
to see at my son's birthday party.
455
00:24:27,962 --> 00:24:29,973
Just doing my job, keeping
my ear to the ground.
456
00:24:29,976 --> 00:24:32,010
And your tongue in the
Sheriff's kid's mouth.
457
00:24:33,067 --> 00:24:35,534
- Did you hear anything interesting?
- Actually, yeah.
458
00:24:35,536 --> 00:24:37,036
Hiram Lodge's daughter is here.
459
00:24:37,038 --> 00:24:40,773
She said something about her father
being connected to Jason's murder.
460
00:24:41,463 --> 00:24:42,829
That is not good.
461
00:24:42,832 --> 00:24:45,010
Hiram and I had some business.
462
00:24:45,012 --> 00:24:46,692
What does your boyfriend say about that?
463
00:24:46,695 --> 00:24:48,028
- His father, you mean?
- Yeah.
464
00:24:48,031 --> 00:24:50,216
- I'll find out.
- Yeah. You better.
465
00:24:50,732 --> 00:24:54,061
These kids are more on the
ball than the Sheriff. Let's go.
466
00:24:56,174 --> 00:24:58,975
You do know my dad
has a drinking problem, right?
467
00:24:58,978 --> 00:24:59,944
Of course I do.
468
00:24:59,947 --> 00:25:01,852
I didn't think people
would be drinking tonight.
469
00:25:01,855 --> 00:25:04,463
I didn't plan on Chuck and Cheryl,
470
00:25:04,465 --> 00:25:06,532
and the rest of the
school crashing, okay?
471
00:25:06,534 --> 00:25:08,267
This was supposed to
be just your friends.
472
00:25:08,269 --> 00:25:11,403
You and Archie are my friends, okay?
473
00:25:12,106 --> 00:25:13,472
Everyone else,
474
00:25:13,999 --> 00:25:16,542
including Kevin, including Veronica,
475
00:25:16,544 --> 00:25:18,110
are people that, two months ago,
476
00:25:18,112 --> 00:25:20,246
- I would've actively shunned.
- Why?
477
00:25:20,249 --> 00:25:23,249
In case you haven't noticed, I'm weird.
478
00:25:23,252 --> 00:25:24,917
I'm a weirdo.
479
00:25:24,919 --> 00:25:28,808
I don't fit in, and I
don't want to fit in.
480
00:25:28,811 --> 00:25:31,190
Have you ever seen me
without this stupid hat on?
481
00:25:31,192 --> 00:25:33,855
- That's weird.
- Why are you getting so upset?
482
00:25:33,858 --> 00:25:37,997
- It's just a party, Jug.
- It's not just a party.
483
00:25:37,999 --> 00:25:41,100
It's the fact that you
don't know or even care
484
00:25:41,102 --> 00:25:44,069
that this is the last
thing I would want.
485
00:25:44,072 --> 00:25:46,505
You did this for you.
To prove something.
486
00:25:46,507 --> 00:25:48,974
- To prove what?
- You're a great girlfriend.
487
00:25:48,976 --> 00:25:50,242
I don't know.
488
00:25:50,244 --> 00:25:52,986
Doesn't it ever occur to you
just how different we are?
489
00:25:52,989 --> 00:25:56,090
Like on a cellular DNA kind of level?
490
00:25:56,093 --> 00:25:57,516
You're a straight-A student,
491
00:25:57,518 --> 00:26:00,152
you're a cheerleader, for God's sakes.
492
00:26:00,155 --> 00:26:02,955
You're the perfect girl next door.
493
00:26:02,957 --> 00:26:04,023
I hate that word.
494
00:26:04,025 --> 00:26:06,826
I'm the damaged loner outsider
495
00:26:06,828 --> 00:26:08,627
from the wrong side of the tracks.
496
00:26:09,297 --> 00:26:11,831
Betty, come on.
497
00:26:11,833 --> 00:26:13,199
Who are we kidding?
498
00:26:14,802 --> 00:26:16,435
We're on borrowed time.
499
00:26:16,437 --> 00:26:17,990
What the hell is that supposed to mean?
500
00:26:17,992 --> 00:26:21,841
Betty, I'm not one of
your projects, okay?
501
00:26:21,843 --> 00:26:23,442
Like solving Jason's murder...
502
00:26:23,444 --> 00:26:25,678
No. You're not a project,
you're my boyfriend.
503
00:26:25,680 --> 00:26:28,280
Until you're sick of
slumming it with me,
504
00:26:28,282 --> 00:26:30,216
or until Archie changes his mind
505
00:26:30,218 --> 00:26:31,917
and says he wants to be with you?
506
00:26:45,476 --> 00:26:46,775
Valerie, hey...
507
00:26:46,777 --> 00:26:49,111
- I'm looking for Melody.
- No, no, no, can we talk?
508
00:26:49,113 --> 00:26:51,480
I just wanted to say what if...
What if we made a mistake?
509
00:26:51,482 --> 00:26:54,216
First of all, we didn't do anything.
510
00:26:54,218 --> 00:26:56,551
I broke up with you because
I thought you were a hot mess.
511
00:26:57,287 --> 00:26:58,487
Clearly, I was right.
512
00:26:59,456 --> 00:27:00,622
Wait, Valerie...
513
00:27:00,625 --> 00:27:02,924
What is your problem, Archie?
514
00:27:02,926 --> 00:27:04,860
You shut me out, remember?
515
00:27:04,863 --> 00:27:06,094
It's too late.
516
00:27:35,426 --> 00:27:37,893
Archie, everything all right?
517
00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:45,133
- Jughead. Hey.
- Hey, Ethel.
518
00:27:45,136 --> 00:27:48,203
You didn't have a piece
of cake. It's bad luck.
519
00:27:48,972 --> 00:27:50,772
This whole night is bad luck.
520
00:27:52,443 --> 00:27:54,076
I'm ghosting. I'll see you at school.
521
00:27:59,016 --> 00:28:00,649
Hey. Whoa.
522
00:28:00,651 --> 00:28:02,050
Where you going, guest of honor?
523
00:28:03,487 --> 00:28:04,653
Get out of my way, Chuck.
524
00:28:04,656 --> 00:28:06,375
Oh, but you can't leave now.
525
00:28:07,825 --> 00:28:09,357
We haven't even played our game yet.
526
00:28:10,360 --> 00:28:11,726
Listen up, party people.
527
00:28:11,728 --> 00:28:12,994
- Quiet.
- Shh.
528
00:28:12,996 --> 00:28:14,686
Everyone has their secrets.
529
00:28:14,689 --> 00:28:16,731
And we've all done our
fair share of sinning.
530
00:28:16,733 --> 00:28:18,967
That's one thing my dear
brother's death has revealed.
531
00:28:19,877 --> 00:28:22,624
So let's play a little game to
get those secrets out in the open.
532
00:28:29,553 --> 00:28:32,020
What the hell is Secrets and Sins?
533
00:28:32,023 --> 00:28:33,907
It's a variation on Truth or Dare.
534
00:28:33,910 --> 00:28:36,465
In which we own our truths.
535
00:28:36,468 --> 00:28:37,909
By telling it like it is.
536
00:28:37,911 --> 00:28:40,645
I'll start the game with Veronica Lodge.
537
00:28:40,647 --> 00:28:42,147
- Naturally.
- Let's begin
538
00:28:42,149 --> 00:28:44,549
with the day you and
your mob wife of a mother
539
00:28:44,551 --> 00:28:46,985
came to town for a
so-called “fresh start.”
540
00:28:46,987 --> 00:28:48,687
Tell us, Veronica, what's so fresh
541
00:28:48,689 --> 00:28:50,856
about defiling Archie
Andrews in a closet?
542
00:28:50,858 --> 00:28:52,724
- That was your doing.
- Moving on
543
00:28:52,726 --> 00:28:54,092
to dear Daddy Lodge...
544
00:28:54,095 --> 00:28:57,262
Isn't it true that your
father, from prison,
545
00:28:57,264 --> 00:28:59,397
illegally purchased the drive-in land?
546
00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:00,732
Which makes me wonder.
547
00:29:00,734 --> 00:29:02,634
What else is he doing from behind bars?
548
00:29:02,636 --> 00:29:04,503
Well, I can't speak for my father,
549
00:29:04,505 --> 00:29:07,839
but I can think of someone
with a very dirty secret.
550
00:29:07,841 --> 00:29:10,859
Specifically, Cheryl
killing her very own brother.
551
00:29:10,862 --> 00:29:12,878
Everyone knows how
much I loved my brother.
552
00:29:12,880 --> 00:29:14,112
Exactly.
553
00:29:14,815 --> 00:29:16,214
But did you love him maybe
554
00:29:16,216 --> 00:29:18,283
in ways that a sister
shouldn't love a brother?
555
00:29:18,286 --> 00:29:22,721
And as you got older, Jason started
to think it was strange, unnatural.
556
00:29:22,724 --> 00:29:24,890
So he chose Polly over you.
557
00:29:24,893 --> 00:29:26,925
So you shot him between the eyes
558
00:29:26,927 --> 00:29:29,261
with one of your father's
many hunting rifles.
559
00:29:29,263 --> 00:29:31,630
This is riveting, I can't breathe.
560
00:29:32,364 --> 00:29:33,630
This game is sick.
561
00:29:34,434 --> 00:29:37,002
- I wanna go next.
- That's the spirit, Doiley.
562
00:29:37,004 --> 00:29:38,770
What secrets do you
have to reveal to us?
563
00:29:38,773 --> 00:29:41,106
I saw Ms. Grundy's car
564
00:29:41,109 --> 00:29:43,955
by Sweetwater River, the
day Jason went missing.
565
00:29:43,958 --> 00:29:46,144
I told Betty and Jughead,
566
00:29:46,146 --> 00:29:47,879
and then, Ms. Grundy quit her job
567
00:29:47,881 --> 00:29:50,315
and left Riverdale,
like, two days later.
568
00:29:50,317 --> 00:29:54,252
And let's not forget that Archie was
also at the Sweetwater that morning.
569
00:29:54,254 --> 00:29:56,788
Oh, my God, color me
shocked, Archie Andrews.
570
00:29:56,790 --> 00:29:59,691
Is that why you became a
mediocre musician overnight?
571
00:29:59,693 --> 00:30:02,427
Because you and Ms. Foureyes were
pulling a Mary Kay Letourneau?
572
00:30:02,429 --> 00:30:03,762
Don't say anything, Archie.
573
00:30:03,764 --> 00:30:04,930
Don't get in the gutter with them.
574
00:30:04,932 --> 00:30:07,666
Wait, what? Andrews
was banging a teacher?
575
00:30:07,669 --> 00:30:09,198
Well, damn, I wish I would have known.
576
00:30:09,201 --> 00:30:11,736
I would've added you and Ms.
Grundy to the board of conquests.
577
00:30:11,738 --> 00:30:13,605
Classy, Chuck, as always.
578
00:30:13,607 --> 00:30:15,774
Wait a second, that also explains
579
00:30:15,776 --> 00:30:18,243
why Archie can't seem to keep
a girlfriend to save his life.
580
00:30:18,246 --> 00:30:20,679
He's got serious Mommy issues.
581
00:30:20,681 --> 00:30:22,614
Anything to say for yourself, Arch?
582
00:30:22,616 --> 00:30:24,416
Were you victim or perpetrator?
583
00:30:24,419 --> 00:30:26,151
Dilton Doiley plays with guns.
584
00:30:26,153 --> 00:30:27,025
Big whoop, Betty.
585
00:30:27,028 --> 00:30:30,121
So Doiley's a psychopath,
everyone knows that.
586
00:30:30,123 --> 00:30:32,090
Well, I guess it's my turn now.
587
00:30:32,092 --> 00:30:36,194
Boy, do I have a
twisted secret to reveal.
588
00:30:36,197 --> 00:30:38,129
Starring Betty Cooper.
589
00:30:38,131 --> 00:30:39,331
Leave her the hell alone, Chuck.
590
00:30:39,333 --> 00:30:40,565
Shut up, Andrews.
591
00:30:40,567 --> 00:30:42,934
Look, you may get a free
peepshow every night,
592
00:30:42,936 --> 00:30:44,269
but you do not know her.
593
00:30:44,272 --> 00:30:46,972
Hell, Betty doesn't even know herself.
594
00:30:46,974 --> 00:30:49,007
Everybody knows why I got suspended.
595
00:30:49,009 --> 00:30:51,142
But what you don't know...
596
00:30:51,144 --> 00:30:55,950
She dressed up like a hooker,
in a God-awful black wig,
597
00:30:55,953 --> 00:30:59,251
drugged me, handcuffed
me in the Jacuzzi,
598
00:30:59,253 --> 00:31:01,019
and I almost drowned
599
00:31:01,021 --> 00:31:03,855
until she got me to say
what she wanted to hear.
600
00:31:03,857 --> 00:31:06,191
And then she really lost it.
601
00:31:06,193 --> 00:31:08,326
She actually thought she was Polly.
602
00:31:08,328 --> 00:31:10,896
But, hey, you knew all
about this, right, Jughead?
603
00:31:15,502 --> 00:31:16,868
Enough! That's enough!
604
00:31:16,870 --> 00:31:18,603
Get your hands off me, snake.
605
00:31:19,208 --> 00:31:20,440
Get out!
606
00:31:23,511 --> 00:31:24,810
Go on!
607
00:31:33,954 --> 00:31:36,421
What are you looking
at? The party's done.
608
00:31:38,191 --> 00:31:39,891
It's over! Go home!
609
00:31:44,364 --> 00:31:45,897
Whoa, where the hell are you going?
610
00:31:45,899 --> 00:31:49,334
What, you want to give me
some advice on my right hook?
611
00:31:49,337 --> 00:31:51,603
I want you to go back
inside and talk to your girl.
612
00:31:51,605 --> 00:31:53,104
I don't think it's gonna work out.
613
00:31:54,308 --> 00:31:55,840
Irreconcilable differences.
614
00:31:55,843 --> 00:31:58,777
Don't run away from it. Don't run away.
615
00:31:59,479 --> 00:32:01,313
You've got something good here.
616
00:32:01,315 --> 00:32:02,948
With her, with your friends.
617
00:32:02,950 --> 00:32:04,115
Something that...
618
00:32:04,118 --> 00:32:06,512
Something that we could never give you.
619
00:32:07,287 --> 00:32:08,987
Also, man up.
620
00:32:08,989 --> 00:32:11,289
After what I just saw
in there, she needs you.
621
00:32:23,503 --> 00:32:24,803
FP.
622
00:32:25,478 --> 00:32:27,505
As block captain of
the Neighborhood Watch,
623
00:32:27,507 --> 00:32:28,807
I am obligated to ask you
624
00:32:28,809 --> 00:32:30,369
what you're doing on this side of town.
625
00:32:30,372 --> 00:32:32,518
Don't act so high and mighty, Alice.
626
00:32:32,521 --> 00:32:35,513
You may not live on
the Southside anymore,
627
00:32:35,515 --> 00:32:38,083
you may not dress like
you're from the Southside,
628
00:32:38,085 --> 00:32:39,584
but we both know the truth.
629
00:32:40,620 --> 00:32:42,420
Snakes don't shed their skin so easily.
630
00:32:43,385 --> 00:32:44,717
Good night, FP.
631
00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:46,591
Now get the hell out of my neighborhood.
632
00:32:46,593 --> 00:32:48,026
You're still hot, Alice.
633
00:32:48,028 --> 00:32:49,594
Too bad you're a stick in the mud.
634
00:32:56,403 --> 00:32:59,037
And all this time, I thought
you were a lover, not a fighter.
635
00:33:00,540 --> 00:33:01,773
I'm both.
636
00:33:02,409 --> 00:33:03,775
I've got layers.
637
00:33:05,779 --> 00:33:07,612
You were doing something nice,
638
00:33:07,615 --> 00:33:09,505
it's just that sometimes,
639
00:33:10,851 --> 00:33:13,385
when people do nice things
for me, I short circuit.
640
00:33:13,388 --> 00:33:15,186
Maybe I'm not used to it.
641
00:33:15,189 --> 00:33:16,849
Maybe I'm scared.
642
00:33:18,859 --> 00:33:20,158
Of getting hurt.
643
00:33:20,927 --> 00:33:24,696
Or being rejected for being myself.
644
00:33:27,120 --> 00:33:29,200
I should have told you about Chuck.
645
00:33:30,751 --> 00:33:32,017
But I lied.
646
00:33:33,013 --> 00:33:37,308
And instead I threw you this
party that you didn't even want.
647
00:33:38,761 --> 00:33:40,027
Why did you?
648
00:33:41,782 --> 00:33:46,184
Something is very, very wrong with me.
649
00:33:47,220 --> 00:33:49,788
Like there's this darkness in me
650
00:33:49,790 --> 00:33:52,290
that's overwhelming sometimes,
651
00:33:52,292 --> 00:33:54,125
and I don't know where it comes from.
652
00:33:54,628 --> 00:33:58,129
But I think that's what makes
me do these crazy things. Like...
653
00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:36,240
How am I ever gonna look
anyone in the eye ever again?
654
00:34:36,243 --> 00:34:38,837
By Monday, this will all be but a dream.
655
00:34:39,529 --> 00:34:41,906
Trust me. No one will remember anything.
656
00:34:41,909 --> 00:34:44,943
Except maybe that I
accused Cheryl of twincest.
657
00:34:49,004 --> 00:34:50,704
I drunk-dialed my dad, Ronnie.
658
00:34:50,707 --> 00:34:52,083
Archie.
659
00:34:53,587 --> 00:34:54,819
What did you say?
660
00:34:55,689 --> 00:34:57,689
I told him not to sign
the divorce papers.
661
00:34:58,708 --> 00:35:00,050
I don't even know why,
662
00:35:00,053 --> 00:35:02,093
it's not like I even want
them to get back together.
663
00:35:04,264 --> 00:35:05,997
Veronica, why do I keep doing this?
664
00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:07,866
I keep wrecking things.
665
00:35:07,868 --> 00:35:09,300
Welcome to my life.
666
00:35:10,637 --> 00:35:13,801
Every day, I feel like
there's a new secret,
667
00:35:13,804 --> 00:35:16,241
a new lie about my parents
668
00:35:16,243 --> 00:35:17,475
and what they've done.
669
00:35:20,113 --> 00:35:22,180
I don't want my mom to be guilty, Archie.
670
00:35:23,483 --> 00:35:25,350
I really want that to be a lie.
671
00:35:28,092 --> 00:35:29,391
Do you ever wonder...
672
00:35:31,324 --> 00:35:32,924
What if you had done things differently,
673
00:35:32,926 --> 00:35:34,626
what if you had made different choices?
674
00:35:35,158 --> 00:35:36,895
What do you mean, different choices?
675
00:35:36,897 --> 00:35:38,396
Every day I wonder,
676
00:35:38,398 --> 00:35:40,498
what if I had left
Riverdale with my mom?
677
00:35:40,501 --> 00:35:42,000
Would things be...
678
00:35:43,470 --> 00:35:45,003
Would I be better off?
679
00:35:45,005 --> 00:35:47,238
I can't answer that, Archie,
680
00:35:47,240 --> 00:35:48,873
but we wouldn't have met,
681
00:35:48,876 --> 00:35:53,077
and that would've been a
tragedy of epic proportions.
682
00:35:54,682 --> 00:35:56,447
I'm messed up, Veronica...
683
00:35:56,450 --> 00:35:58,249
We all are, Archie.
684
00:35:59,490 --> 00:36:01,918
And, honestly, you less than most.
685
00:37:25,796 --> 00:37:28,092
Veronica. Hey, good morning.
686
00:37:32,008 --> 00:37:33,608
Morning, Jughead.
687
00:37:37,275 --> 00:37:38,541
Um...
688
00:37:38,876 --> 00:37:39,909
So listen...
689
00:37:39,911 --> 00:37:43,212
Don't... Don't worry,
my lips are sealed.
690
00:37:43,714 --> 00:37:45,814
Okay. Cool.
691
00:37:48,753 --> 00:37:52,922
Smithers, you've known my parents
a very long time, haven't you?
692
00:37:52,924 --> 00:37:55,457
Oh, my, yes, ages.
693
00:37:55,459 --> 00:38:00,363
And would you describe
my father as a good man?
694
00:38:01,532 --> 00:38:02,932
I'd rather not say, miss.
695
00:38:05,336 --> 00:38:07,423
And my mother, is she...
696
00:38:07,426 --> 00:38:09,305
Unequivocally good.
697
00:38:10,741 --> 00:38:12,241
No doubt in my mind about that.
698
00:38:12,944 --> 00:38:14,276
Thank you, Smithers.
699
00:38:18,816 --> 00:38:21,702
- Veronica.
- I'm sorry I'm late.
700
00:38:24,175 --> 00:38:27,910
And thank you, Mom, for not getting
mad that I slept over at Betty's.
701
00:38:28,859 --> 00:38:30,159
Thank you for coming.
702
00:38:30,661 --> 00:38:32,428
I believe in you, Mom.
703
00:38:37,435 --> 00:38:40,069
And I'm ready to go on record
704
00:38:40,071 --> 00:38:42,137
about how much my mom and dad love me.
705
00:38:48,713 --> 00:38:50,743
Long night's journey into day?
706
00:38:56,053 --> 00:38:57,486
I can't face the music right now.
707
00:38:57,955 --> 00:38:59,688
Yeah, I understand.
708
00:39:01,223 --> 00:39:02,922
So, you and Veronica...
709
00:39:04,862 --> 00:39:06,228
Yeah...
710
00:39:06,231 --> 00:39:08,497
- Jug...
- Don't worry.
711
00:39:08,499 --> 00:39:11,366
I'm never telling anyone
anything literally ever.
712
00:39:11,369 --> 00:39:12,568
Okay, good.
713
00:39:13,871 --> 00:39:15,204
Thanks. That's great.
714
00:39:22,013 --> 00:39:23,379
I brewed some High Point
715
00:39:23,381 --> 00:39:26,482
and brought you some aspirin for
the headache I'm sure you have.
716
00:39:26,484 --> 00:39:27,783
Thanks, Mom.
717
00:39:30,421 --> 00:39:32,988
So I saw that you invited Jughead's dad
718
00:39:32,990 --> 00:39:35,207
to your little soiree last night.
719
00:39:35,210 --> 00:39:38,360
I did. I thought it would be nice.
720
00:39:38,363 --> 00:39:42,478
And he was talking to a long-haired
delinquent wearing a leather jacket.
721
00:39:42,481 --> 00:39:44,133
- You mean Joaquin?
- Is that his name?
722
00:39:44,136 --> 00:39:46,634
They know each other
through the Serpents.
723
00:39:46,637 --> 00:39:48,003
He's kind of dating Kevin.
724
00:39:48,006 --> 00:39:49,571
What?
725
00:39:49,573 --> 00:39:52,819
A Southside Serpent
dating the Sheriff's son?
726
00:39:54,142 --> 00:39:56,909
This is a small town,
but it's not that small.
727
00:40:02,269 --> 00:40:03,951
Hi there.
728
00:40:03,954 --> 00:40:08,324
Decaf skim latte and a fresh scone.
729
00:40:08,327 --> 00:40:10,893
The last time you brought me baked goods
730
00:40:10,895 --> 00:40:12,827
was because you kissed Archie.
731
00:40:17,968 --> 00:40:19,168
Betty...
732
00:40:19,860 --> 00:40:22,826
I just testified on my father's behalf
733
00:40:22,829 --> 00:40:25,897
and helped his chances of going free.
734
00:40:25,900 --> 00:40:27,988
That's good news, right?
735
00:40:29,529 --> 00:40:34,399
My dad hired Jughead's
dad to trash the drive-in.
736
00:40:34,402 --> 00:40:37,553
And given recent events,
it's not inconceivable
737
00:40:37,555 --> 00:40:41,694
that he might've hired
him to do other jobs.
738
00:40:42,547 --> 00:40:46,615
Like go after Jason as payback
for what the Blossoms did to him.
739
00:40:50,774 --> 00:40:53,746
I want to help with your investigation.
740
00:40:54,638 --> 00:40:55,904
I want the truth.
741
00:40:56,886 --> 00:40:58,118
Whatever it is.
742
00:40:59,910 --> 00:41:02,577
Whether you believe in order or chaos,
743
00:41:02,580 --> 00:41:04,452
in the end, it's the same...
744
00:41:04,455 --> 00:41:06,515
We are either in control of our lives,
745
00:41:06,517 --> 00:41:08,484
or merely think we are.
746
00:41:08,486 --> 00:41:09,685
Miss Veronica.
747
00:41:11,756 --> 00:41:13,122
Package arrived for you.
748
00:41:19,346 --> 00:41:21,187
_
749
00:41:29,802 --> 00:41:32,136
Archie.
750
00:41:34,211 --> 00:41:35,377
We're home.
751
00:41:38,082 --> 00:41:39,248
Mom?
752
00:41:40,068 --> 00:41:41,268
Hi, honey.
753
00:41:44,406 --> 00:41:48,476
