1
00:00:08,091 --> 00:00:09,885
Previously on Riverdale:
2
00:00:09,968 --> 00:00:11,887
Welcome to the Pit. Give us a show.
3
00:00:11,970 --> 00:00:12,971
Hit me.
4
00:00:13,388 --> 00:00:15,068
Warden Norton
is in your pocket.
5
00:00:15,140 --> 00:00:18,310
Everyone is in your pocket,
except for me and Archie.
6
00:00:18,393 --> 00:00:20,812
Where's Mad Dog?
Captain Golightly said he died.
7
00:00:20,896 --> 00:00:21,980
What'd you do to him?
8
00:00:22,064 --> 00:00:24,983
All three victims played
the game Gryphons and Gargoyles.
9
00:00:25,067 --> 00:00:27,486
You're admitting
the game killed Dilton and Ben?
10
00:00:27,569 --> 00:00:29,780
You've clearly played G&G before.
11
00:00:29,863 --> 00:00:32,783
When you were my age,
there was another suspicious death
12
00:00:32,866 --> 00:00:34,493
where the corpse had blue lips.
13
00:00:34,576 --> 00:00:37,663
- One of us was a murderer.
- I saw a creature in the woods.
14
00:00:37,746 --> 00:00:40,499
What if it's the same person
from the Midnight Club?
15
00:00:40,582 --> 00:00:42,376
Swear to me that you won't play it.
16
00:00:42,459 --> 00:00:44,545
I want to be worthy, Ethel. Show me how.
17
00:00:44,628 --> 00:00:47,297
- Welcome to your first game.
- This game is pure evil.
18
00:00:47,381 --> 00:00:49,621
That book is our best shot
at figuring out what happened.
19
00:00:49,675 --> 00:00:51,301
We're gonna get out of here.
20
00:00:51,385 --> 00:00:53,262
- We're escaping.
- Count me in.
21
00:00:58,809 --> 00:01:01,687
You are imprisoned
in the Gargoyle King's fortress.
22
00:01:02,354 --> 00:01:05,232
Trapped in pens, you live in fear,
23
00:01:05,315 --> 00:01:09,069
never knowing when his Legion of Gargoyles
will descend from the sky to feed.
24
00:01:09,611 --> 00:01:11,321
But his guards are arrogant.
25
00:01:11,405 --> 00:01:14,324
You've been able to observe
and study their movements.
26
00:01:15,117 --> 00:01:16,618
And you've planned an escape.
27
00:01:16,702 --> 00:01:19,746
It's down. Baby Teeth got to the
breaker, and cut the juice.
28
00:01:19,830 --> 00:01:20,831
You're sure?
29
00:01:21,915 --> 00:01:23,292
You're absolutely positive?
30
00:01:23,792 --> 00:01:26,420
We can squeeze through those wires
at the top corner.
31
00:01:26,503 --> 00:01:30,090
But it won't be long before they notice
and turn that fly-fryer back on.
32
00:01:30,299 --> 00:01:31,633
It's now or never, Archie.
33
00:01:35,679 --> 00:01:38,473
Roll the dice to decide your fate.
34
00:01:39,808 --> 00:01:40,809
Let's do it.
35
00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:46,315
Now.
36
00:01:51,486 --> 00:01:52,571
Remember...
37
00:01:53,238 --> 00:01:54,114
It's only a game.
38
00:01:55,282 --> 00:01:56,700
It's not life or death.
39
00:01:58,035 --> 00:01:58,869
They wouldn't.
40
00:01:59,995 --> 00:02:01,663
Unless, of course, it is.
41
00:02:21,808 --> 00:02:23,769
Your mission was unsuccessful.
Everyone dies.
42
00:02:24,811 --> 00:02:28,607
Jug, you won't believe
the story my mom told me last night.
43
00:02:30,942 --> 00:02:33,445
Jug, what are you doing?
44
00:02:34,488 --> 00:02:38,575
Betty, it's all making sense.
All of this is becoming clear.
45
00:02:38,950 --> 00:02:40,994
The game. The Gargoyle King.
46
00:02:41,078 --> 00:02:44,206
I'm on Level Three. It's only a
matter of time until I ascend.
47
00:02:44,706 --> 00:02:45,832
And I get to meet him.
48
00:02:47,626 --> 00:02:48,627
You've confirmed?
49
00:02:49,294 --> 00:02:51,672
So, my dad played G&G
in high school?
50
00:02:51,755 --> 00:02:53,090
Of course. It makes sense.
51
00:02:53,173 --> 00:02:56,468
All of our parents did,
and they swore each other to secrecy.
52
00:02:56,551 --> 00:02:58,470
But, Jug, while they were playing,
53
00:02:58,553 --> 00:03:01,264
one of them killed
their principal back then,
54
00:03:01,348 --> 00:03:04,559
Felix Featherhead,
either accidentally or on purpose,
55
00:03:04,643 --> 00:03:06,603
but he had blue lips,
56
00:03:07,145 --> 00:03:08,480
just like Ben and Dilton.
57
00:03:08,563 --> 00:03:11,525
Which is why all of this has to stop.
58
00:03:11,608 --> 00:03:13,860
Betty, the fact our parents played G&G
59
00:03:13,944 --> 00:03:16,113
just corroborates
what I've come to believe.
60
00:03:16,780 --> 00:03:20,909
That we have been playing this game
for a lot longer than we know.
61
00:03:20,992 --> 00:03:22,160
And off-board.
62
00:03:22,244 --> 00:03:24,121
Think about it. The Hot Dog rescue.
63
00:03:24,204 --> 00:03:25,580
What was it if not a quest?
64
00:03:25,997 --> 00:03:27,624
The Serpents, the Ghoulies.
65
00:03:27,708 --> 00:03:31,962
What are they if not warring tribes?
Might as well call us orcs and goblins.
66
00:03:32,045 --> 00:03:33,463
You're not making any sense.
67
00:03:33,547 --> 00:03:35,966
And you're also not listening
to what I'm saying.
68
00:03:36,049 --> 00:03:37,968
We have nine suspects
69
00:03:38,051 --> 00:03:41,221
that are all real, tangible leads.
70
00:03:41,304 --> 00:03:44,599
One of our parents could be a murderer.
Let's go investigate them.
71
00:03:44,683 --> 00:03:46,143
You're not seeing the big picture.
72
00:03:47,144 --> 00:03:50,272
Eldervair,
the realm of Gryphons and Gargoyles,
73
00:03:50,355 --> 00:03:52,232
is an anagram for "Riverdale."
74
00:03:52,691 --> 00:03:55,110
The whole game is an
analog for Riverdale.
75
00:03:55,193 --> 00:03:59,197
The game only exists in Riverdale.
That's why we couldn't find it on the Web.
76
00:03:59,281 --> 00:04:01,408
Okay, well, that is a weird coincidence.
77
00:04:01,491 --> 00:04:03,827
It's not a coincidence.
It's all connected.
78
00:04:03,910 --> 00:04:08,206
It's all one big narrative,
that's still being written and played.
79
00:04:08,290 --> 00:04:11,042
You need to calm down, Jug.
Who's telling you this?
80
00:04:11,126 --> 00:04:14,546
The game. The more I play, the more
familiar I become with Eldervair,
81
00:04:14,629 --> 00:04:16,965
and its rules.
The more I see the patterns.
82
00:04:17,048 --> 00:04:18,842
The more I understand him or her.
83
00:04:19,509 --> 00:04:21,261
And how we'll catch The Gargoyle King.
84
00:04:21,344 --> 00:04:23,930
This game is their psychology.
Their imagination.
85
00:04:24,014 --> 00:04:25,223
How they view Riverdale.
86
00:04:25,307 --> 00:04:28,185
My mom was right.
This game messes with your head.
87
00:04:28,268 --> 00:04:30,687
No. This is the clarity I needed.
It's the truth.
88
00:04:31,313 --> 00:04:34,232
G&G's myths, they're our stories.
Our parents' stories.
89
00:04:34,316 --> 00:04:37,611
It's simple logic, Betty.
How do you catch a game master?
90
00:04:39,237 --> 00:04:40,906
Become a game master yourself.
91
00:04:41,281 --> 00:04:42,407
That's what I'm doing.
92
00:04:42,491 --> 00:04:45,869
And in the end,
when I prove that I'm at his level...
93
00:04:47,704 --> 00:04:49,331
I'll come face-to-face with him.
94
00:04:49,873 --> 00:04:50,707
Fine.
95
00:04:51,750 --> 00:04:53,794
Fine. As long as you're
96
00:04:53,877 --> 00:04:56,546
safe down here,
that's one less thing to worry about.
97
00:04:56,630 --> 00:04:58,131
So, you... You keep playing.
98
00:04:59,007 --> 00:05:02,219
I'm gonna go figure this out,
starting with our nine suspects.
99
00:05:10,644 --> 00:05:13,021
Go on a run with me
one of these mornings, mija.
100
00:05:14,147 --> 00:05:15,607
Nothing's more invigorating.
101
00:05:19,486 --> 00:05:23,490
By the way, did you hear what happened
at Leopold and Loeb?
102
00:05:25,826 --> 00:05:28,662
Apparently some inmates tried to escape.
103
00:05:29,246 --> 00:05:33,458
I hear the ringleader was,
once again, Archie Andrews.
104
00:05:35,210 --> 00:05:37,337
But no worries.
The guards caught them all.
105
00:05:37,796 --> 00:05:40,799
After shooting them with rubber bullets.
They'll be punished.
106
00:05:41,675 --> 00:05:43,635
Might add a year to Archie's sentence.
107
00:05:49,474 --> 00:05:52,769
My friend, Warden Norton,
runs an awfully tight ship.
108
00:05:53,770 --> 00:05:55,981
I know you're trying
to set me off right now,
109
00:05:56,189 --> 00:05:57,148
but it won't work.
110
00:05:58,275 --> 00:06:00,235
I'm getting Archie out,
one way or the other.
111
00:06:01,278 --> 00:06:03,780
And then you'll be the one rotting away,
112
00:06:04,072 --> 00:06:06,324
in the very prison
your blood money has built.
113
00:06:15,834 --> 00:06:16,668
Yes.
114
00:06:17,794 --> 00:06:19,129
Warden Norton, please.
115
00:06:22,215 --> 00:06:23,216
Are you comfortable?
116
00:06:23,884 --> 00:06:26,720
The idea to escape was all mine.
I told them to do it.
117
00:06:26,803 --> 00:06:28,305
Why am I not surprised?
118
00:06:36,146 --> 00:06:37,188
What are you doing?
119
00:06:38,607 --> 00:06:40,066
Let this serve as a reminder.
120
00:06:41,568 --> 00:06:43,069
You can't fight your destiny.
121
00:06:44,154 --> 00:06:45,614
No, please. No, don't.
122
00:06:51,703 --> 00:06:54,539
Hold up. You're telling
me that my mother
123
00:06:54,623 --> 00:07:00,086
was a rule-breaking,
anti-apartheid activist in high school?
124
00:07:00,378 --> 00:07:02,756
And that she and my dad
were together back then?
125
00:07:04,007 --> 00:07:05,008
I don't buy it.
126
00:07:05,759 --> 00:07:08,762
There's no way my old man hung out
and did, like, cosplay
127
00:07:08,845 --> 00:07:10,472
with a group of lame-ass nerds.
128
00:07:11,097 --> 00:07:12,599
Okay, it's true, Reggie.
129
00:07:12,682 --> 00:07:16,186
And you want us to find
out what, exactly?
130
00:07:17,687 --> 00:07:21,024
My suspicion is that
whoever was running the game back then
131
00:07:21,107 --> 00:07:24,486
is running it now,
which is why we need to stop them
132
00:07:24,569 --> 00:07:26,905
- before things get any worse.
- What are you saying?
133
00:07:26,988 --> 00:07:31,368
One of our parents might be responsible
for what happened to Dilton and Ben?
134
00:07:31,451 --> 00:07:32,327
Maybe.
135
00:07:32,410 --> 00:07:35,497
You can't tell them
that you know about their Midnight Club.
136
00:07:35,580 --> 00:07:39,167
You have to be careful and subtle
when you ask them what they know.
137
00:07:42,545 --> 00:07:45,215
The speakeasy is impressive,
Veronica.
138
00:07:45,423 --> 00:07:49,803
Impeccable taste and a little
elbow grease go a long way, Elio.
139
00:07:50,553 --> 00:07:51,846
But from what I hear,
140
00:07:51,930 --> 00:07:55,767
your Sweetwater Casino will soon be
giving the Miragio a run for its money.
141
00:07:56,893 --> 00:07:59,896
You know, if you added a
couple of slots, table games,
142
00:07:59,980 --> 00:08:01,731
maybe cocktails with actual liquor,
143
00:08:01,815 --> 00:08:04,901
you'd have quite the little goldmine
on your manicured hands.
144
00:08:04,985 --> 00:08:08,196
Thank you
for mansplaining my business to me.
145
00:08:09,114 --> 00:08:10,736
But that's not why
I asked you here.
146
00:08:10,757 --> 00:08:13,121
Right. You want to
talk Leopold and Loeb?
147
00:08:13,284 --> 00:08:14,494
More than talk.
148
00:08:15,537 --> 00:08:20,000
Archie is locked away in that hellhole,
and I haven't heard from him in weeks.
149
00:08:20,083 --> 00:08:22,544
I've hit a dead end
with the Innocence Project.
150
00:08:22,627 --> 00:08:23,461
However...
151
00:08:24,004 --> 00:08:27,549
I've heard rumors
that L and L has direct ties to the Mob.
152
00:08:28,508 --> 00:08:30,969
I thought you,
with your connections, could help.
153
00:08:33,763 --> 00:08:34,723
Tell you what, Veronica.
154
00:08:34,806 --> 00:08:37,726
I'll talk to my dad's friends,
see what I can find out.
155
00:08:38,268 --> 00:08:39,853
But if I scratch your back...
156
00:08:39,936 --> 00:08:40,937
I'm a Lodge.
157
00:08:41,438 --> 00:08:42,522
I know how this goes.
158
00:08:42,605 --> 00:08:45,734
Just make it happen,
and you'll be appropriately recompensed.
159
00:08:58,455 --> 00:09:02,083
Jones, we have a problem.
Your boys went and got into the arsenal.
160
00:09:04,669 --> 00:09:05,712
- Pull.
- And go.
161
00:09:06,588 --> 00:09:08,465
Close.
162
00:09:08,548 --> 00:09:10,829
- Next time.
- What's going on here?
163
00:09:11,593 --> 00:09:14,888
Toni and I were in her tent,
having a rendezvous...
164
00:09:14,971 --> 00:09:17,515
When this arrow shot right through it.
165
00:09:17,599 --> 00:09:20,018
Three feet to the left
and I'd be missing an eye.
166
00:09:20,560 --> 00:09:22,228
Yeah, we were practicing our aim.
167
00:09:22,437 --> 00:09:24,981
- For the next quest.
- We want to go off-board.
168
00:09:25,065 --> 00:09:26,316
Take G&G to the real world.
169
00:09:28,401 --> 00:09:30,236
- Other groups are doing it.
- Tough.
170
00:09:30,862 --> 00:09:32,864
I'm the game master,
I decide when we go off-board.
171
00:09:32,947 --> 00:09:35,658
You're the Serpent King, Jones.
Isn't that enough?
172
00:09:36,326 --> 00:09:39,412
We're foot soldiers in life.
We gotta be the same in the game?
173
00:09:39,496 --> 00:09:41,539
Down in the mud, taking all the risks.
174
00:09:41,623 --> 00:09:43,958
Sweet Pea, we're not
starting this again.
175
00:09:44,584 --> 00:09:45,710
Cheryl, grab your bow.
176
00:09:46,628 --> 00:09:47,629
Notch an arrow.
177
00:09:49,297 --> 00:09:51,216
Jones, wait. What are you doing?
178
00:10:02,727 --> 00:10:04,104
Come on.
179
00:10:04,354 --> 00:10:05,188
Fire.
180
00:10:05,271 --> 00:10:06,481
He's not serious, is he?
181
00:10:06,564 --> 00:10:07,607
Fire, Deadeye!
182
00:10:19,369 --> 00:10:20,453
Sweet Pea.
183
00:10:20,537 --> 00:10:23,164
If you have something to prove,
get against the tree.
184
00:10:24,332 --> 00:10:25,500
What?
185
00:10:27,210 --> 00:10:28,670
- Hell, no. You're crazy.
- No.
186
00:10:30,421 --> 00:10:31,840
I'm game master.
187
00:10:31,923 --> 00:10:34,592
Which means it's my game and my rules.
188
00:10:35,260 --> 00:10:38,138
You guys wanna go on a quest?
Prove you're badasses?
189
00:10:38,221 --> 00:10:39,264
You'll get a chance.
190
00:10:39,347 --> 00:10:40,598
Not until I say so.
191
00:10:41,975 --> 00:10:42,976
Don't defy me again.
192
00:10:53,444 --> 00:10:55,113
♪ Whispering love ♪
193
00:10:58,199 --> 00:11:01,161
♪ Whispering words of love ♪
194
00:11:04,330 --> 00:11:06,457
Elio. What's the good word?
195
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:09,169
I think I can get
you to your boy, Veronica.
196
00:11:09,419 --> 00:11:11,588
You'll come as my date,
but dress incognito.
197
00:11:12,422 --> 00:11:13,256
No problem.
198
00:11:13,631 --> 00:11:15,508
But come as your date to what?
199
00:11:15,592 --> 00:11:17,594
It's better if you just see it.
200
00:11:24,142 --> 00:11:27,020
So, you're still screwing around
with this crap, boy?
201
00:11:28,021 --> 00:11:30,231
The apple doesn't
fall too far from the tree.
202
00:11:30,315 --> 00:11:31,608
What's that supposed to mean?
203
00:11:31,691 --> 00:11:34,110
I know you played G&G
in high school, Dad.
204
00:11:34,861 --> 00:11:37,280
And I know about
what happened to your principal,
205
00:11:37,363 --> 00:11:39,115
- during the Ascension Party.
- How?
206
00:11:41,075 --> 00:11:41,910
Betty.
207
00:11:42,452 --> 00:11:45,747
- Which means Alice spilled the beans.
- Big time.
208
00:11:45,830 --> 00:11:48,499
Whatever story Betty has
in her head about that night,
209
00:11:48,583 --> 00:11:50,335
that's Alice's version, not mine.
210
00:11:50,418 --> 00:11:52,128
So, tell me yours.
211
00:11:56,674 --> 00:12:00,220
I've been through every scenario
about that night.
212
00:12:01,012 --> 00:12:03,640
Other people could've snuck in,
the same way we were.
213
00:12:03,723 --> 00:12:05,975
- Featherhead could've had his own game.
- Yeah.
214
00:12:06,476 --> 00:12:09,312
There are infinite possibilities,
but what's most likely?
215
00:12:09,687 --> 00:12:10,688
I don't know.
216
00:12:11,189 --> 00:12:13,233
- I don't know who killed Featherhead.
- I do.
217
00:12:14,275 --> 00:12:17,445
It was a game master.
Whoever planned Ascension Night.
218
00:12:18,112 --> 00:12:20,823
Betty thinks it was someone
from the Midnight Club. I'm not so sure.
219
00:12:20,907 --> 00:12:23,993
I think it was someone
who's playing a much longer...
220
00:12:24,702 --> 00:12:26,371
a much deeper game.
221
00:12:26,871 --> 00:12:27,872
And whoever it was,
222
00:12:28,331 --> 00:12:29,958
I'm gonna get inside their mind.
223
00:12:31,459 --> 00:12:32,460
And I'll catch them.
224
00:12:33,878 --> 00:12:35,171
Don't you want that, Dad?
225
00:12:39,425 --> 00:12:42,220
♪ It's just like heaven ♪
226
00:12:42,345 --> 00:12:43,665
That's not it at all.
227
00:12:44,138 --> 00:12:46,224
This is nice. We never get to do this.
228
00:12:46,307 --> 00:12:47,809
Yeah, this is a blast.
229
00:12:48,518 --> 00:12:49,894
So, Mom...
230
00:12:50,728 --> 00:12:51,729
Mr. Keller...
231
00:12:52,814 --> 00:12:55,233
Kevin and I were
talking, and we realized
232
00:12:55,316 --> 00:12:56,776
that we don't really know
233
00:12:56,859 --> 00:12:59,195
anything about how you two...
234
00:12:59,279 --> 00:13:00,196
met.
235
00:13:00,989 --> 00:13:03,950
Well, we were at Riverdale High
at the same time.
236
00:13:04,033 --> 00:13:05,994
- You were friends.
- More acquaintances.
237
00:13:06,077 --> 00:13:07,537
We didn't run in the same circles.
238
00:13:08,162 --> 00:13:11,416
So you didn't
do any extracurriculars together?
239
00:13:12,292 --> 00:13:13,459
Not that I can recall.
240
00:13:13,668 --> 00:13:18,047
I was in Model UN,
and Volunteers of America.
241
00:13:18,131 --> 00:13:22,552
And I was in our ROTC,
and I was on the boxing team.
242
00:13:23,052 --> 00:13:24,053
Did you guys ever...
243
00:13:24,887 --> 00:13:26,931
- play Gryphons and Gargoyles?
- Yeah.
244
00:13:28,599 --> 00:13:32,020
I knew some kids that played it,
but I wasn't really into that stuff.
245
00:13:32,103 --> 00:13:33,646
Never appealed to me, either.
246
00:13:35,398 --> 00:13:38,359
Although, now that we're all together...
247
00:13:39,444 --> 00:13:41,487
Josie, Kevin...
248
00:13:43,614 --> 00:13:45,575
there's something we should discuss.
249
00:13:50,246 --> 00:13:53,666
Elio, what is this place?
And why aren't we at the juvie?
250
00:13:53,750 --> 00:13:55,418
It's a decommissioned rec center.
251
00:13:55,752 --> 00:13:59,088
I didn't tell you because I didn't
want you calling in the cavalry.
252
00:13:59,255 --> 00:14:00,673
At least not while I'm here.
253
00:14:10,308 --> 00:14:11,851
My patience is wearing thin.
254
00:14:11,934 --> 00:14:14,562
Easy, tigress. It's just about showtime.
255
00:14:18,066 --> 00:14:20,109
I'd recognize those abs anywhere.
256
00:14:21,235 --> 00:14:22,111
Archie?
257
00:14:22,195 --> 00:14:23,029
Relax.
258
00:14:23,446 --> 00:14:24,697
I hear he always wins.
259
00:14:43,716 --> 00:14:44,759
Archie?
260
00:14:46,094 --> 00:14:46,928

We only have about 20 minutes.
266
00:15:06,906 --> 00:15:07,949
My God.
267
00:15:09,200 --> 00:15:11,035
- What have they done to you?
- Ronnie.
268
00:15:12,370 --> 00:15:13,955

But it's dead end after dead end.
276
00:15:44,902 --> 00:15:47,447
Which is why I'm thinking...
277
00:15:49,157 --> 00:15:51,617
an old-fashioned prison break
is your best option.
278
00:15:51,701 --> 00:15:55,204
Ronnie, nobody has ever broken out
of Leopold and Loeb before.
279
00:15:55,288 --> 00:15:57,457
Fine,
but we're not in Leopold and Loeb now.
280
00:15:58,749 --> 00:16:01,836
The security Elio and I went through
to get in here was tight.
281
00:16:01,919 --> 00:16:04,213
- We need another entry point.
- You're serious?
282
00:16:04,297 --> 00:16:05,173
Deadly.
283
00:16:06,174 --> 00:16:08,050
Why? You have something in mind?
284
00:16:08,843 --> 00:16:09,760
It's a long shot.
285
00:16:10,845 --> 00:16:12,054
But a couple weeks back,
286
00:16:12,138 --> 00:16:15,308
Warden Norton had me hose down the pool
to get rid of the blood.
287
00:16:17,351 --> 00:16:18,936
There's a drain under the ring.
288
00:16:19,437 --> 00:16:22,064
I have no idea where it leads
or if I can even squeeze through it.
289
00:16:22,148 --> 00:16:23,483
Curse your broad shoulders.
290
00:16:25,651 --> 00:16:27,320
But if there's even a chance...
291
00:16:28,070 --> 00:16:30,364
- I'm not sure what I can do to help.
- Nothing.
292
00:16:31,824 --> 00:16:34,076
Let me research
and see where the drain leads.
293
00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:36,621
You just be ready when the time comes.
294
00:16:37,580 --> 00:16:39,790
- When's your next fight?
- Coming up. Fast.
295
00:16:41,209 --> 00:16:43,211
Then that's when we're breaking you out.
296
00:16:48,549 --> 00:16:49,717
Fellow Serpents.
297
00:16:50,718 --> 00:16:54,222
I know all of you have been eager
to get back to Eldervair.
298
00:16:56,766 --> 00:16:58,142
Well, cancel your plans.
299
00:17:00,102 --> 00:17:01,103
We play tomorrow.
300
00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:07,818
So, they said nothing?
301
00:17:08,569 --> 00:17:09,737
Admitted nothing?
302
00:17:09,820 --> 00:17:12,490
All they did was lie,
like they didn't know about G&G.
303
00:17:12,573 --> 00:17:13,824
Bury the lede, Kevin.
304
00:17:14,575 --> 00:17:16,536
They announced they're getting married.
305
00:17:18,496 --> 00:17:21,666
Seriously? As what? A smokescreen?
306
00:17:21,749 --> 00:17:22,875
No clue.
307
00:17:22,959 --> 00:17:24,835
You think that was a crazy reaction?
308
00:17:26,587 --> 00:17:29,590
This is what I got when I asked my dad
about that stupid game.
309
00:17:31,133 --> 00:17:34,887
Why are our parents so cagey about
something that happened 25 years ago?
310
00:17:37,098 --> 00:17:38,474
What aren't you telling us?
311
00:17:40,768 --> 00:17:42,144
Guys, whatever this is,
312
00:17:42,228 --> 00:17:43,271
it has to wait.
313
00:17:43,354 --> 00:17:44,564
What's wrong, Vee?
314
00:17:44,647 --> 00:17:45,648
I saw Archie.
315
00:17:46,065 --> 00:17:49,318
He's caught up
in some diabolical teen fight club.
316
00:17:49,402 --> 00:17:53,364
And I need to break him out of juvie,
before he dies, or kills somebody.
317
00:17:54,657 --> 00:17:56,617
And you all have to help me.
318
00:18:05,459 --> 00:18:08,045
- Jug?
- Betty.
319
00:18:09,213 --> 00:18:11,507
What are you doing?
Getting ready for a party?
320
00:18:11,591 --> 00:18:13,843
We're about to start a new quest.
Wanna join?
321
00:18:14,260 --> 00:18:17,221
Even if I wanted to, I can't.
322
00:18:17,305 --> 00:18:20,766
It's a long story, but I'm helping
Veronica break Archie out of juvie,
323
00:18:20,850 --> 00:18:23,436
- and I'm hoping you can come with us.
- Wait, what?
324
00:18:23,894 --> 00:18:25,646
You're breaking Archie out of juvie?
325
00:18:25,730 --> 00:18:27,857
- I know it sounds insane.
- No.
326
00:18:27,940 --> 00:18:29,108
It sounds perfect.
327
00:18:29,650 --> 00:18:30,943
What? What do you mean?
328
00:18:31,736 --> 00:18:35,406
This quest that I've been working on,
that we're about to start,
329
00:18:35,489 --> 00:18:37,783
I thought I was finished,
but it lacked heart.
330
00:18:37,867 --> 00:18:38,951
It lacked humanity...
331
00:18:41,203 --> 00:18:43,497
till you just gave me the missing piece.
332
00:18:44,749 --> 00:18:46,250
I'll make it a rescue mission,
333
00:18:47,209 --> 00:18:48,711
to save their friend.
334
00:18:48,794 --> 00:18:51,380
All Ethel ever talked about
was being worthy.
335
00:18:51,672 --> 00:18:54,717
- What is more worthy than that?
- Jughead, this is not a game.
336
00:18:55,134 --> 00:18:59,138
This is Archie's life, and since
you refuse to recognize that...
337
00:19:00,598 --> 00:19:01,891
I'm taking your bike.
338
00:19:09,690 --> 00:19:12,026
This is quite the spread, warden.
339
00:19:19,116 --> 00:19:21,077
All this after I tried to escape.
340
00:19:21,494 --> 00:19:23,663
That makes me think
you're not rewarding me.
341
00:19:25,164 --> 00:19:26,374
You're getting rid of me.
342
00:19:28,042 --> 00:19:28,876
I'm afraid so.
343
00:19:30,169 --> 00:19:32,588
Your final meal before your final fight.
344
00:19:34,340 --> 00:19:36,300
You have powerful enemies, Archie.
345
00:19:38,010 --> 00:19:40,054
I appreciate you being honest with me.
346
00:19:41,097 --> 00:19:43,766
But since this may be the last meal
that I ever eat...
347
00:19:45,393 --> 00:19:47,645
- can I ask you a question?
- Go on.
348
00:19:48,896 --> 00:19:52,149
How exactly did Hiram Lodge
pin Cassidy Bullock's murder on me?
349
00:19:52,233 --> 00:19:53,067
Do you know?
350
00:19:57,780 --> 00:19:59,073
It's as you imagine.
351
00:19:59,699 --> 00:20:03,160
He paid Mr. Bullock's friends,
the ones that were with him that night,
352
00:20:03,744 --> 00:20:06,205
ten thousand dollars each
to lie under oath,
353
00:20:06,956 --> 00:20:09,083
and say that
they saw you pull the trigger.
354
00:20:09,583 --> 00:20:11,168
That's how much your life is worth.
355
00:20:12,128 --> 00:20:13,462
Thirty thousand dollars.
356
00:20:13,546 --> 00:20:16,173
- Where are they now? Dead?
- They might as well be.
357
00:20:16,257 --> 00:20:17,857
It's my understanding they're in hiding.
358
00:20:17,883 --> 00:20:20,094
Some say in Shadow Woods, but me?
359
00:20:21,137 --> 00:20:23,264
I'd hide in the mines by Shadow Lake.
360
00:20:23,931 --> 00:20:25,516
No chance of being found there.
361
00:20:29,353 --> 00:20:30,396
One last question.
362
00:20:31,605 --> 00:20:33,524
Does Hiram Lodge own you, too, warden?
363
00:20:33,983 --> 00:20:35,651
Has he always pulled the strings?
364
00:20:35,735 --> 00:20:38,237
My soul belongs
to no mere mortal, Andrews.
365
00:20:40,906 --> 00:20:45,578
The judgment of all men belongs
to he who resides in the kingdom alone.
366
00:20:48,581 --> 00:20:50,082
But he's watching us.
367
00:20:50,166 --> 00:20:51,542
He's always watching.
368
00:20:57,882 --> 00:20:59,425
Thank you all for coming.
369
00:20:59,508 --> 00:21:01,927
I've gathered you
because the world is changing.
370
00:21:02,928 --> 00:21:06,474
Strange, dark times have fallen upon us.
371
00:21:06,682 --> 00:21:07,683
As you all know...
372
00:21:08,934 --> 00:21:10,478
Archie's stuck behind bars.
373
00:21:11,771 --> 00:21:13,230
His life is in danger.
374
00:21:13,564 --> 00:21:15,483
The realm of Eldervair is in disorder.
375
00:21:16,776 --> 00:21:17,818
Afflicted by evil.
376
00:21:18,986 --> 00:21:21,697
As its heart and soul, the Red Paladin
377
00:21:22,072 --> 00:21:23,949
has been captured by the Mad Emperor,
378
00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:25,868
and twisted into a beast of war.
379
00:21:25,951 --> 00:21:27,077
Before we get started,
380
00:21:27,578 --> 00:21:29,205
I want to acknowledge that, yes,
381
00:21:29,830 --> 00:21:31,999
we are flying by the seat
of our pants here.
382
00:21:32,082 --> 00:21:35,252
But as much as possible,
we must follow the plan.
383
00:21:35,753 --> 00:21:37,463
The slightest deviation...
384
00:21:38,631 --> 00:21:40,132
and Archie could wind up dead.
385
00:21:41,675 --> 00:21:42,885
We'll need a distraction
386
00:21:43,469 --> 00:21:46,472
to disorient the guards
and hide Archie's play for the grate.
387
00:21:46,931 --> 00:21:49,558
Something we can sneak
into the location easily
388
00:21:50,017 --> 00:21:51,435
that won't arouse suspicion.
389
00:21:51,519 --> 00:21:52,937
Something we make ourselves.
390
00:21:53,896 --> 00:21:55,022
For the getaway route,
391
00:21:55,105 --> 00:21:57,733
I want you positioned
for the pickup here, Bee.
392
00:21:58,609 --> 00:22:00,110
If you stick to the woods,
393
00:22:00,194 --> 00:22:02,279
their cars shouldn't be able
to follow you.
394
00:22:02,363 --> 00:22:03,697
Just in case...
395
00:22:05,115 --> 00:22:08,285
might I suggest
we put another precaution in place?
396
00:22:11,956 --> 00:22:12,790
Joaquin.
397
00:22:14,124 --> 00:22:15,334
Something might go down.
398
00:22:17,461 --> 00:22:19,672
If it does,
know I'll come back for you guys.
399
00:22:23,467 --> 00:22:24,343
Hey.
400
00:22:24,426 --> 00:22:25,261
Joaquin.
401
00:22:26,637 --> 00:22:27,471
You with me?
402
00:22:33,811 --> 00:22:36,564
- What are you doing?
- Our game begins with a Judas kiss.
403
00:22:36,647 --> 00:22:37,648
I'm sorry, Archie.
404
00:22:38,148 --> 00:22:41,068
The warden said if I did this, I'd...
I'd finally ascend.
405
00:22:47,116 --> 00:22:48,784
A dastardly act of betrayal.
406
00:22:48,868 --> 00:22:50,452
A traitor wounded the Paladin,
407
00:22:50,870 --> 00:22:52,621
severely weakening his defenses.
408
00:22:52,997 --> 00:22:56,125
With his life in peril,
it's now up to you, dream warriors,
409
00:22:56,625 --> 00:22:57,835
to save the Red Paladin,
410
00:22:58,961 --> 00:23:02,673
and to restore peace and order
to the realm.
411
00:23:02,882 --> 00:23:03,883
But be warned.
412
00:23:05,259 --> 00:23:08,304
With every second that passes,
the Paladin's fate dims.
413
00:23:09,847 --> 00:23:12,308
And with it, all hope...
414
00:23:13,475 --> 00:23:14,643
for peace in the realm.
415
00:23:22,318 --> 00:23:23,569
Without further ado...
416
00:23:27,698 --> 00:23:28,699
let the game begin.
417
00:23:34,496 --> 00:23:38,751

Password?
426
00:24:04,109 --> 00:24:05,694
- Contra.
- Nice try.
427
00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:10,491
- That's what it was last time.
- It changes every time.
428
00:24:10,950 --> 00:24:12,660
What are your names?
429
00:24:12,952 --> 00:24:15,752
Deadeye, you're at the
entrance of the Mad Emperor's dungeon.
430
00:24:15,829 --> 00:24:19,041
But you've been blocked by a
bridge troll. How do you proceed?
431
00:24:19,124 --> 00:24:21,377
I roll for an intimidation spell,
obviously.
432
00:24:24,046 --> 00:24:25,297
What's my name?
433
00:24:26,131 --> 00:24:27,132
What's your name?
434
00:24:28,425 --> 00:24:29,426
I'm Monica Norton.
435
00:24:30,052 --> 00:24:31,804
You're familiar with Warden Norton?
436
00:24:33,180 --> 00:24:34,223
Of course.
437
00:24:34,765 --> 00:24:37,309
Good. We understand each other, then.
438
00:24:38,477 --> 00:24:42,106
My fiancé and I are here for the show.
We want to see blood.
439
00:24:42,856 --> 00:24:43,941
The fighters' blood.
440
00:24:44,233 --> 00:24:45,067
Yours.
441
00:24:45,567 --> 00:24:48,028
I don't really care,
as long as it's red.
442
00:24:49,321 --> 00:24:51,949
If you need to call Warden Norton
to get me cleared...
443
00:24:52,032 --> 00:24:53,742
That won't be necessary, miss.
444
00:24:54,410 --> 00:24:55,411
Sorry for the delay.
445
00:24:57,287 --> 00:24:59,039
Good job. You're inside.
446
00:24:59,248 --> 00:25:00,416
Pantera, you're up.
447
00:25:03,627 --> 00:25:04,920
Where you going with that?
448
00:25:05,671 --> 00:25:08,340
I'm supposed to put this
with the other refreshments.
449
00:25:09,174 --> 00:25:10,814
If you don't mind, I
can run this inside.
450
00:25:22,813 --> 00:25:23,856
I think it's starting.
451
00:25:27,943 --> 00:25:29,945
We're entering the lion's den.
452
00:25:30,362 --> 00:25:32,489
The Paladin is being marched in,
453
00:25:33,449 --> 00:25:34,450
to meet his doom.
454
00:25:35,242 --> 00:25:36,368
For he must face...
455
00:25:38,287 --> 00:25:39,830
a resurrected hellhound.
456
00:25:52,134 --> 00:25:54,845
Mad Dog. Thought you were dead.
Where have you been?
457
00:25:56,346 --> 00:25:57,639
It's me, Archie.
458
00:26:26,460 --> 00:26:27,544
Care for a drink?
459
00:26:29,671 --> 00:26:32,716
I just overheard some guards
betting heavily against Archie.
460
00:26:33,967 --> 00:26:35,010
They say he's going down.
461
00:26:36,095 --> 00:26:38,305
That other guy's huge.
I'm not sure Archie's got long.
462
00:26:41,141 --> 00:26:41,975
Okay.
463
00:26:43,519 --> 00:26:45,395
Get in position. Wait for my signal.
464
00:26:54,363 --> 00:26:56,490
You've arrived
at the Mad Emperor's tunnel.
465
00:26:56,573 --> 00:26:57,741
You've found the entrance.
466
00:26:58,158 --> 00:27:02,121
But the Mad Emperor has placed
a Bano protection spell on the barrier.
467
00:27:02,204 --> 00:27:03,664
Well, that is super annoying.
468
00:27:08,836 --> 00:27:09,795
Joaquin?
469
00:27:11,004 --> 00:27:12,589
Kevin, what are you doing here?
470
00:27:12,673 --> 00:27:15,008
Breaking Archie out.
What are you doing here?
471
00:27:16,844 --> 00:27:19,763
It doesn't matter,
and it's too late for Archie.
472
00:27:20,639 --> 00:27:22,808
Where are you going?
Back to the Serpents?
473
00:27:23,350 --> 00:27:25,477
No, no, no. I joined a different gang.
474
00:27:25,561 --> 00:27:27,396
- Who?
- You don't want to know, Kevin.
475
00:27:27,563 --> 00:27:30,065
Just leave.
You've gotta get out of here right now.
476
00:27:31,150 --> 00:27:32,401
- Wait...
- Go. Go.
477
00:27:32,484 --> 00:27:33,485
Wait, Joaquin.
478
00:27:38,907 --> 00:27:39,908
Come on, hit me.
479
00:27:40,284 --> 00:27:41,243
Right here, do it.
480
00:27:47,291 --> 00:27:49,626
I'm not fighting you.
You're not my enemy.
481
00:27:50,043 --> 00:27:51,128
But listen to me.
482
00:27:51,211 --> 00:27:52,421
There's a plan in place.
483
00:27:52,504 --> 00:27:54,464
My girl is gonna cause a commotion.
484
00:27:54,548 --> 00:27:57,176
I'll make a break
for the drain underneath the ring.
485
00:27:57,259 --> 00:27:58,135
Come with me.
486
00:28:04,516 --> 00:28:05,976
You'll never make it.
487
00:28:06,560 --> 00:28:08,020
Not after getting shivved.
488
00:28:08,979 --> 00:28:10,189
Yes, I can.
489
00:28:11,815 --> 00:28:12,941
You need a head start.
490
00:28:16,486 --> 00:28:18,655
Deadeye Blossom. You're up.
491
00:28:18,739 --> 00:28:19,781
Betty, thank God.
492
00:28:19,865 --> 00:28:23,577
- Kev, why isn't the grate open?
- There's a lock we didn't know about.
493
00:28:24,453 --> 00:28:26,622
But look. Joaquin was just here.
494
00:28:27,414 --> 00:28:29,791
- I have to go after him.
- Well, I got this,
495
00:28:29,875 --> 00:28:32,336
but you can't go after Joaquin.
What about Archie?
496
00:28:32,419 --> 00:28:33,629
I'll be back. I promise.
497
00:28:34,922 --> 00:28:36,590
What is it, game master?
498
00:28:36,965 --> 00:28:38,008
It's a curveball.
499
00:28:41,011 --> 00:28:44,097
You're about to come face-to-face
with the Dark Dragon.
500
00:28:44,431 --> 00:28:47,476
The most evil-tempered,
vile creature in the land.
501
00:28:47,935 --> 00:28:50,229
With forked tongue,
and snarling black slime,
502
00:28:50,312 --> 00:28:51,939
it reeks of rotting flesh.
503
00:28:52,022 --> 00:28:54,024
Veronica, what are you doing here?
504
00:28:55,567 --> 00:28:59,279
I could ask you the same, Daddy. But I
bet my answer is better than yours.
505
00:28:59,363 --> 00:29:02,574
Whatever scheme you've cooked up,
it ends right now.
506
00:29:03,659 --> 00:29:04,910
Sorry, Daddykins.
507
00:29:05,911 --> 00:29:08,372
This is gonna hurt you a lot more
than it will me.
508
00:29:10,707 --> 00:29:11,708
Well played.
509
00:29:11,792 --> 00:29:14,419
You've impaled the dragon
with your concealed dagger.
510
00:29:33,313 --> 00:29:34,356
Let's go. Come on.
511
00:29:35,816 --> 00:29:37,025
I won't get through the grate.
512
00:29:37,943 --> 00:29:40,654
I tried. But you go.
I'll hold off the guards.
513
00:29:40,737 --> 00:29:42,281
- Yeah, but you...
- Just go, Red!
514
00:29:42,364 --> 00:29:43,365
Don't look back.
515
00:29:51,623 --> 00:29:53,458
Warden, he's getting away.
516
00:29:53,542 --> 00:29:55,043
Guards. Stop him!
517
00:30:21,987 --> 00:30:23,322
Find him.
518
00:30:26,199 --> 00:30:28,076
You know where that pipe leads?
519
00:30:31,330 --> 00:30:35,000
Find him right now!
520
00:30:39,629 --> 00:30:40,464
Archie.
521
00:30:53,101 --> 00:30:54,519
- Betty.
- Hi.
522
00:30:55,020 --> 00:30:57,773
- What took you so long?
- I could ask you the same thing.
523
00:30:57,856 --> 00:30:59,107
Are these clothes for me?
524
00:30:59,274 --> 00:31:00,275
Oh, my God.
525
00:31:01,276 --> 00:31:02,277
You're bleeding.
526
00:31:03,987 --> 00:31:05,238
Here. Put pressure on it.
527
00:31:05,697 --> 00:31:06,698
Here, come here.
528
00:31:09,409 --> 00:31:11,036
You freed the Paladin,
529
00:31:11,119 --> 00:31:12,913
but you're not clear
of the Mad Emperor yet.
530
00:31:23,215 --> 00:31:25,634
What the hell are you waiting for?
Go after them!
531
00:31:25,842 --> 00:31:28,678
In fact, the Emperor sends
a ruthless cavalry in pursuit.
532
00:31:29,096 --> 00:31:32,349
Your noble steed is no match
for the cavalry's mighty stallions.
533
00:31:32,974 --> 00:31:34,601
Do you continue on your path?
534
00:31:35,435 --> 00:31:37,396
Or do you surrender and beg for mercy?
535
00:31:37,479 --> 00:31:38,627
- Keep going.
- Never give up.
536
00:31:38,647 --> 00:31:40,482
- Go. Go.
- Keep going.
537
00:31:40,565 --> 00:31:42,359
You lean forward in your saddle,
538
00:31:42,442 --> 00:31:44,569
urging your horse to fly.
539
00:31:44,694 --> 00:31:47,239
On all sides,
the forest becomes a blur of green.
540
00:31:48,031 --> 00:31:49,449
But a quick peek back...
541
00:31:49,825 --> 00:31:53,620
reveals the Emperors nightmares
galloping at supernatural speed.
542
00:31:53,703 --> 00:31:56,873
It's like hell itself is chasing you,
and it's gaining ground.
543
00:31:57,249 --> 00:31:58,333
One loose rock,
544
00:31:59,209 --> 00:32:02,587
one cursed root would send you toppling
at this lethal speed.
545
00:32:02,838 --> 00:32:05,090
But you force those thoughts
out of your mind.
546
00:32:05,924 --> 00:32:08,510
You feel the battle fury
of your forefathers
547
00:32:09,052 --> 00:32:10,387
rise within you.
548
00:32:10,470 --> 00:32:13,306
An inextinguishable fire,
pulsing through your veins.
549
00:32:13,932 --> 00:32:16,309
You are the light,
outrunning the darkness.
550
00:32:16,852 --> 00:32:18,645
Go around. He's
on the other side.
551
00:32:18,728 --> 00:32:20,105
You will escape.
552
00:32:20,188 --> 00:32:22,190
You will be victorious.
553
00:32:22,941 --> 00:32:23,942
But then...
554
00:32:24,025 --> 00:32:25,944
you're barreling towards the edge
of a cliff.
555
00:32:26,027 --> 00:32:26,862
You must stop.
556
00:32:35,745 --> 00:32:37,414
What can we do for you, fellas?
557
00:32:37,664 --> 00:32:38,498
Bravo.
558
00:32:38,999 --> 00:32:40,750
Your deception gambit has paid off.
559
00:32:41,251 --> 00:32:42,851
You've outsmarted the Emperor's cavalry.
560
00:32:42,919 --> 00:32:43,920
Yeah!
561
00:32:44,671 --> 00:32:45,547
Yes!
562
00:33:11,781 --> 00:33:12,866
Game master.
563
00:33:13,617 --> 00:33:15,327
Hello? What happened?
564
00:33:15,660 --> 00:33:17,078
Did we save the Red Paladin?
565
00:33:18,288 --> 00:33:20,957
I don't know. I made a
last-minute change to the quest.
566
00:33:21,041 --> 00:33:24,211
I was hoping to have the ending
or answer when we got this far.
567
00:33:24,294 --> 00:33:27,547
- What do you mean, you don't know?
- Where is the Red Paladin?
568
00:33:28,006 --> 00:33:29,216
Where is he?
569
00:33:30,050 --> 00:33:31,760
Where is the Red Paladin?
570
00:33:33,720 --> 00:33:35,680
I don't know what you're talking about.
571
00:33:35,764 --> 00:33:37,182
Let him go, Warden Norton.
572
00:33:39,059 --> 00:33:40,977
Let him go, or I'll mace you.
573
00:33:46,274 --> 00:33:47,108
Fall back.
574
00:33:48,318 --> 00:33:49,778
Everyone, back to the center.
575
00:33:59,412 --> 00:34:00,956
Is it over? Did he die?
576
00:34:34,698 --> 00:34:37,534
There. You are all patched up.
577
00:34:38,076 --> 00:34:39,703
Don't make any sudden movements.
578
00:34:40,245 --> 00:34:41,454
I won't. Thanks, Toni.
579
00:34:49,296 --> 00:34:50,714
Who did that to you, Archie?
580
00:34:51,548 --> 00:34:53,341
It was Joaquin. He stabbed me.
581
00:34:54,301 --> 00:34:56,011
I think the warden made him do it.
582
00:35:01,850 --> 00:35:03,184
Guys, where the hell am I?
583
00:35:04,185 --> 00:35:05,478
In Dilton Doiley's bunker.
584
00:35:05,562 --> 00:35:08,064
The only people
who know it exists are in this room.
585
00:35:08,148 --> 00:35:11,067
Now it's the safest place
in Riverdale for you, I promise.
586
00:35:11,443 --> 00:35:12,819
Dilton Doiley has a bunker?
587
00:35:15,030 --> 00:35:17,657
We'll catch you up to speed
once you're rested, okay?
588
00:35:20,827 --> 00:35:21,953
Archie?
589
00:35:24,831 --> 00:35:26,124
What is that on your hip?
590
00:35:27,959 --> 00:35:29,336
Courtesy of Warden Norton.
591
00:35:30,587 --> 00:35:34,174
To put me in my place,
after I tried to escape the first time.
592
00:35:34,257 --> 00:35:36,509
The warden branded you,
and ordered Joaquin to stab you?
593
00:35:38,803 --> 00:35:39,679
Jug.
594
00:35:45,185 --> 00:35:46,811
Can I have everyone's attention?
595
00:35:51,107 --> 00:35:53,318
Since my father saw me,
596
00:35:53,401 --> 00:35:55,945
I need to do some damage control
on the home front.
597
00:35:56,029 --> 00:35:59,366
But someone needs to stay with Archie,
at all times.
598
00:35:59,449 --> 00:36:01,368
Ronnie, I don't need anyone...
599
00:36:01,451 --> 00:36:02,744
Yes. You do.
600
00:36:02,827 --> 00:36:05,664
You go ahead, V.
Jughead and I will take the first shift.
601
00:36:05,747 --> 00:36:06,665
Excellent.
602
00:36:07,999 --> 00:36:09,959
Now, equally important...
603
00:36:10,502 --> 00:36:14,297
everyone in this room is part of a pact.
604
00:36:14,881 --> 00:36:15,924
From this moment on,
605
00:36:16,383 --> 00:36:18,510
no one knows where this bunker is.
606
00:36:19,511 --> 00:36:22,347
No one was involved with that breakout.
607
00:36:23,556 --> 00:36:26,601
And no one is aware
of Archie's whereabouts.
608
00:36:29,062 --> 00:36:29,938
To the grave.
609
00:36:31,856 --> 00:36:32,691
Capiche?
610
00:36:41,282 --> 00:36:42,784
Are you out of your mind, Hiram?
611
00:36:42,867 --> 00:36:45,495
Archie escaped
from an underground fight club?
612
00:36:45,954 --> 00:36:47,122
That you knew about?
613
00:36:47,205 --> 00:36:49,249
I am being hounded by social workers.
614
00:36:49,332 --> 00:36:51,710
The Innocence Project
is breathing down my neck.
615
00:36:51,793 --> 00:36:54,838
I mean, for God's sake,
I took donations from Warden Norton.
616
00:36:54,921 --> 00:36:57,424
Stop yelling.
We can get ahead of it. Contain it.
617
00:36:58,883 --> 00:37:00,218
And finally.
618
00:37:01,344 --> 00:37:02,220
She arrives.
619
00:37:02,303 --> 00:37:04,556
Do you have any idea
the mess you've made?
620
00:37:05,265 --> 00:37:07,225
Me? What about your husband?
621
00:37:10,061 --> 00:37:11,938
You two are unbelievable.
622
00:37:12,313 --> 00:37:17,277
This obsession that you both have with
Archie Andrews is going to destroy us.
623
00:37:22,073 --> 00:37:23,616
Where the hell are you going?
624
00:37:23,700 --> 00:37:26,119
To try and contain the mess
that you and your daughter made.
625
00:37:33,585 --> 00:37:35,462
I tried to find him, but it was no use.
626
00:37:35,545 --> 00:37:37,785
I had to double back,
and be the decoy.
627
00:37:42,051 --> 00:37:43,595
- Thanks, Pop.
- You're welcome.
628
00:37:45,388 --> 00:37:46,431
He's out there.
629
00:37:47,307 --> 00:37:48,850
Joaquin is out there.
630
00:37:51,644 --> 00:37:54,647
I can't believe
we pulled off the escape.
631
00:37:54,731 --> 00:37:57,025
Sorry. My bad.
632
00:37:57,108 --> 00:37:58,568
It's a secret.
633
00:37:58,651 --> 00:37:59,527
Yeah.
634
00:38:01,196 --> 00:38:02,155
Speaking of...
635
00:38:03,323 --> 00:38:05,033
Are we gonna do this or not?
636
00:38:10,038 --> 00:38:11,039
I don't know, guys.
637
00:38:11,122 --> 00:38:12,248
Come on, Josie.
638
00:38:12,332 --> 00:38:16,211
Don't you want to find out what our
parents and Betty won't tell us?
639
00:38:21,883 --> 00:38:23,218
I want to know the truth.
640
00:38:23,968 --> 00:38:24,886
Wherever it leads.
641
00:38:29,641 --> 00:38:33,478
We interrupt our top-ten countdown
with an important news bulletin.
642
00:38:33,603 --> 00:38:36,064
Convicted murderer Archibald Andrews
has escaped
643
00:38:36,147 --> 00:38:38,733
from the Leopold and Loeb
Juvenile Detention Center.
644
00:38:39,025 --> 00:38:40,443
He is extremely dangerous.
645
00:38:40,527 --> 00:38:42,487
The public is advised to remain indoors
646
00:38:42,946 --> 00:38:44,656
and to report suspicious activity.
647
00:38:45,114 --> 00:38:48,326
It is believed he will seek refuge
in his hometown of Riverdale.
648
00:38:50,912 --> 00:38:52,247
He's finally asleep.
649
00:38:52,789 --> 00:38:56,376
- Jug, his burn mark.
- You mean his brand.
650
00:38:57,585 --> 00:39:00,296
Looks like a runic symbol
from Gryphons and Gargoyles.
651
00:39:01,798 --> 00:39:06,302
- He said the warden gave it to him.
- The warden called Archie a Red Paladin.
652
00:39:06,386 --> 00:39:09,722
Does that mean the
warden is playing G&G?
653
00:39:09,806 --> 00:39:11,391
See? This is what I'm saying.
654
00:39:11,474 --> 00:39:14,227
This game is so much bigger
than a couple kids playing.
655
00:39:15,270 --> 00:39:17,689
What if Warden Norton
is The Gargoyle King?
656
00:39:18,314 --> 00:39:19,148
Jug.
657
00:39:20,775 --> 00:39:22,235
Before we dive back in...
658
00:39:23,194 --> 00:39:26,114
I think you should go home
and get some rest.
659
00:39:26,489 --> 00:39:28,658
How long has it been since you've slept?
660
00:39:30,577 --> 00:39:32,453
Just get a couple hours at least.
661
00:39:33,872 --> 00:39:35,164
I'll take this watch.
662
00:39:44,340 --> 00:39:45,508
Sleep well, Paladin.
663
00:39:47,677 --> 00:39:50,263
I have a bad feeling
your trials are only beginning.
664
00:40:09,741 --> 00:40:11,826
Sir? Mayor Lodge is here.
665
00:40:12,577 --> 00:40:13,870
She'd like to have a word.
666
00:40:16,039 --> 00:40:17,415
Tell her I'll be right out.
667
00:40:20,877 --> 00:40:22,045
In the end...
668
00:40:22,879 --> 00:40:24,505
why did Warden Norton do it?
669
00:40:25,632 --> 00:40:28,051
Was he afraid of retribution
from the authorities
670
00:40:28,134 --> 00:40:29,552
for his illegal activities?
671
00:40:30,678 --> 00:40:33,097
Or was it that the game of G&G
he'd been playing
672
00:40:33,389 --> 00:40:34,390
was finally over?
673
00:40:36,559 --> 00:40:39,312
And the Gargoyle King
was calling him home to ascend.
674
00:40:40,980 --> 00:40:43,399
Either way, the result was the same.
675
00:40:44,233 --> 00:40:45,860
Death by cyanide poisoning.
