1
00:00:02,190 --> 00:00:05,220
Our story is about
a town, a small town,
2
00:00:06,070 --> 00:00:08,900
And the people who live
in the town.
3
00:00:09,700 --> 00:00:11,530
From a distance,
it presents itself
4
00:00:11,540 --> 00:00:14,910
Like so many other small towns
all over the world...
5
00:00:14,910 --> 00:00:16,140
Safe.
6
00:00:16,140 --> 00:00:17,240
Decent.
7
00:00:17,240 --> 00:00:18,770
Innocent.
8
00:00:19,280 --> 00:00:20,950
Get closer, though,
9
00:00:20,950 --> 00:00:24,120
And you start seeing
the shadows underneath.
10
00:00:24,920 --> 00:00:28,160
The name of our town
is riverdale.
11
00:00:38,830 --> 00:00:40,730
And our story begins, i guess,
12
00:00:40,730 --> 00:00:43,300
With what the blossom twins
did this summer.
13
00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:51,670
On the fourth of july,
just after dawn,
14
00:00:52,850 --> 00:00:54,480
Jason and cheryl blossom
drove out to sweetwater river
15
00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:56,840
For an early morning
boat ride.
16
00:00:57,350 --> 00:00:58,780
Are you scared, jason?
17
00:01:09,230 --> 00:01:11,530
The next thing
we know happened for sure
18
00:01:11,530 --> 00:01:12,860
Is that dilton doiley,
19
00:01:12,870 --> 00:01:14,700
Who was leading riverdale's
boy scout troop
20
00:01:14,700 --> 00:01:16,630
On a bird watching expedition,
21
00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:19,580
Came upon cheryl
by the river's edge.
22
00:01:22,270 --> 00:01:23,870
Jason...
23
00:01:32,590 --> 00:01:36,230
Riverdale police dragged
sweetwater river
for jason's body,
24
00:01:36,230 --> 00:01:37,980
But never found it.
25
00:01:37,990 --> 00:01:39,620
If he is dead, hal,
26
00:01:40,690 --> 00:01:43,160
I hope in those last moments
he suffered.
27
00:01:44,100 --> 00:01:47,940
May jason blossom
burn in hell.
28
00:01:49,370 --> 00:01:51,070
So a week later,
29
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:54,930
The blossom family buried
an empty casket
30
00:01:54,940 --> 00:01:58,040
And jason's death
was ruled an accident,
31
00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:00,870
As the story that cheryl told
made the rounds.
32
00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:04,440
That cheryl dropped
a glove in the water,
33
00:02:04,450 --> 00:02:07,110
And jason reached
down to get it,
34
00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:09,160
And accidentally
tipped the boat,
35
00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:11,530
And panicked, and drowned.
36
00:02:12,930 --> 00:02:16,530
As for us,
we were still talking about
the "july fourth tragedy"
37
00:02:16,530 --> 00:02:18,400
On the last day
of summer vacation,
38
00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:21,570
When a new mystery
rolled into town.
39
00:02:28,140 --> 00:02:31,140
Now brace yourself.
The apartment's small,
a pied-a-terre,
40
00:02:31,140 --> 00:02:34,470
But "quality, always."
"quality, always."
41
00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:37,180
Plus, it's the only piece
of property in my name
42
00:02:37,180 --> 00:02:38,510
And not your father's.
43
00:02:43,260 --> 00:02:45,160
Ms. Hermione!
44
00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:46,790
Welcome home!
Smithers!
45
00:02:46,790 --> 00:02:48,920
Oh, you are a sight
for sore eyes.
46
00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:51,830
How was the ride?
No traffic, thank god.
47
00:02:51,830 --> 00:02:53,730
Smithers, i'd like
to introduce you
48
00:02:53,730 --> 00:02:55,590
To my daughter, veronica.
49
00:02:56,300 --> 00:02:58,200
It's a pleasure, miss.
Hi.
50
00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:00,300
I'll get the bags.
Would you?
51
00:03:00,310 --> 00:03:02,480
Oh, and would you like
some menus, ma'am,
so you can order in?
52
00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:04,210
Oh, no.
I have been craving
53
00:03:04,210 --> 00:03:06,210
One of pop tate's
cheeseburgers
since noon.
54
00:03:06,210 --> 00:03:07,770
Is his chock'lit shoppe
still open?
55
00:03:08,910 --> 00:03:11,710
What is a chock'lit shoppe
and why does it sell burgers?
56
00:03:23,830 --> 00:03:26,070
Are you excited? Nervous?
57
00:03:27,130 --> 00:03:30,400
Both. I haven't seen him
all summer.
58
00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:32,500
Which is why nerves
are acceptable,
59
00:03:32,510 --> 00:03:34,780
But we agreed, betty...
It's time.
60
00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:37,500
You like him, he likes you.
61
00:03:37,510 --> 00:03:39,610
Well, then why, kevin,
62
00:03:39,610 --> 00:03:41,440
Hasn't he ever said
or done anything?
63
00:03:42,010 --> 00:03:44,280
Because archie's swell,
64
00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:46,250
But like most
millennial straight guys,
65
00:03:46,250 --> 00:03:47,550
He needs to be told
what he wants.
66
00:03:47,550 --> 00:03:49,520
So tell him, finally.
67
00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:51,180
Well, we'll see.
I mean, it depends.
68
00:03:51,190 --> 00:03:53,250
Oh, my god!
69
00:03:53,530 --> 00:03:54,760
What?
70
00:03:55,460 --> 00:03:58,560
Game-changer.
Archie got hot!
71
00:03:59,730 --> 00:04:01,190
He's got abs now.
72
00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:06,670
Six more reasons for you
to take that ginger bull
by the horns tonight.
73
00:04:07,470 --> 00:04:08,670
So, what was
the highlight?
74
00:04:09,210 --> 00:04:10,410
Of my internship?
75
00:04:10,410 --> 00:04:13,950
The toni morrison
book release party
i organized, by far.
76
00:04:13,950 --> 00:04:15,450
At the end of the night,
toni morrison,
77
00:04:15,450 --> 00:04:16,980
Who is, as you know,
78
00:04:16,980 --> 00:04:19,710
My literary hero,
says to me...
Yes. Yes.
79
00:04:20,390 --> 00:04:21,790
"don't rush this time, betty.
80
00:04:21,790 --> 00:04:24,690
"it goes by so fast
at your age.
81
00:04:24,690 --> 00:04:26,950
"one summer
can change everything."
82
00:04:28,230 --> 00:04:31,360
Wow. That's so true.
83
00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:32,620
How was working for your dad?
84
00:04:32,630 --> 00:04:35,460
It was...
Pouring concrete,
85
00:04:35,470 --> 00:04:37,440
Every day, all day long.
86
00:04:38,670 --> 00:04:41,630
To pass time,
i would start composing
87
00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:43,140
These poems, in my head.
88
00:04:43,140 --> 00:04:44,570
And at night, i'd go home,
i'd write them down...
89
00:04:44,580 --> 00:04:46,080
You don't even
like reading poetry.
90
00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:49,650
They weren't poems,
they were song lyrics.
91
00:04:51,580 --> 00:04:53,610
And working on them
made me feel like...
92
00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:56,180
What, archie?
93
00:04:56,190 --> 00:04:57,760
It made me feel like
94
00:04:57,760 --> 00:04:59,800
I'd finally broken through
to something real.
95
00:05:00,690 --> 00:05:01,790
About my life
96
00:05:01,790 --> 00:05:03,460
And what i should be trying
to do with it.
97
00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:05,560
Music.
98
00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:08,170
Starting this year, tomorrow.
99
00:05:08,170 --> 00:05:09,710
Amazing.
100
00:05:10,700 --> 00:05:12,760
Will you ask ms. Grundy
to tutor you?
101
00:05:13,710 --> 00:05:14,880
I'm not sure, maybe.
What about football?
102
00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:16,670
Can you do both?
I'll try out, at least.
103
00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:18,980
Well, have you told your dad?
No.
104
00:05:18,980 --> 00:05:20,280
Until i've got things
more figured out,
105
00:05:20,280 --> 00:05:21,680
You're the only person
i'm telling, okay?
106
00:05:23,780 --> 00:05:25,980
Well, i'd love to hear
them sometime.
107
00:05:25,990 --> 00:05:27,220
Your songs.
108
00:05:27,220 --> 00:05:28,490
Yeah?
Yes.
109
00:05:28,490 --> 00:05:30,190
Yeah, i'm finishing
a couple of demos tonight.
110
00:05:30,190 --> 00:05:33,630
Great. Also...
111
00:05:33,630 --> 00:05:35,730
I've been thinking
112
00:05:35,730 --> 00:05:38,030
About us, archie,
113
00:05:38,030 --> 00:05:41,890
And our friendship,
and how it's time we...
114
00:05:56,920 --> 00:05:58,885
I called in an order,
for lodge?
115
00:05:58,886 --> 00:06:00,480
Two burgers,
yeah, almost ready,
116
00:06:00,490 --> 00:06:02,260
But you gotta wait.
117
00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:04,730
Hi.
Hey.
118
00:06:05,690 --> 00:06:07,250
How are the onion rings here?
119
00:06:07,530 --> 00:06:08,730
So good.
120
00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:10,620
Can we get some onion rings,
too, please?
121
00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:12,360
Yeah.
Thanks.
122
00:06:13,100 --> 00:06:14,340
My mom and i
just moved here, so...
123
00:06:14,340 --> 00:06:16,030
From where?
New york.
124
00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:17,370
Wow.
125
00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:20,240
Do you guys go to riverdale?
126
00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:22,370
We do. Both of us. Together.
We're sophomores.
127
00:06:22,370 --> 00:06:23,870
Me too.
128
00:06:24,710 --> 00:06:26,570
I'm filled with dread.
Why is that?
129
00:06:27,610 --> 00:06:29,710
Are you familiar with the
works of truman capote?
130
00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:32,040
I'm breakfast at tiffany's,
131
00:06:32,050 --> 00:06:34,050
But this place is strictly
in cold blood.
132
00:06:37,190 --> 00:06:38,360
Veronica lodge.
133
00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:39,760
Archie andrews.
134
00:06:41,060 --> 00:06:42,390
Uh, this is betty cooper.
135
00:06:43,060 --> 00:06:45,060
Wait, are you...
136
00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:47,990
Supposed to give you
your tour tomorrow? Yes.
137
00:06:49,070 --> 00:06:50,500
I'm your peer mentor.
138
00:06:50,500 --> 00:06:51,660
Do you want to join us?
139
00:06:52,570 --> 00:06:54,100
Hey, maybe we can
un-fill you with dread.
140
00:06:54,710 --> 00:06:55,840
My mom's waiting for me.
141
00:06:56,410 --> 00:06:58,340
But, to be continued.
142
00:06:58,340 --> 00:06:59,570
Yeah.
143
00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:05,440
What were you saying?
Nothing.
144
00:07:07,950 --> 00:07:11,180
Hey, dad. First day of school
and i'm already late.
145
00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:13,420
Hey, vegas.
146
00:07:14,730 --> 00:07:16,770
Hey, you, uh,
you stopping by
the site later?
147
00:07:17,330 --> 00:07:18,530
Dad, it's my first day.
148
00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:20,300
Oh, we got to get you going
in the office,
149
00:07:20,300 --> 00:07:22,170
So next summer
you're not on the crew.
150
00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:25,200
Well, i can't.
I've got football tryouts.
151
00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:28,340
Or is that not okay?
152
00:07:28,340 --> 00:07:32,000
No, it's, uh...
It's okay. Good luck.
153
00:07:34,650 --> 00:07:35,820
Hmm.
154
00:07:37,220 --> 00:07:40,590
Betty.
This coming year
is critical for colleges.
155
00:07:40,590 --> 00:07:42,090
Grades are important,
156
00:07:42,090 --> 00:07:44,020
Extracurriculars, athletics.
157
00:07:44,020 --> 00:07:46,120
Maintaining
a decent character
158
00:07:46,130 --> 00:07:48,800
Is hugely important,
they do look at that.
159
00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:50,220
Mom, i'm a sophomore.
160
00:07:50,230 --> 00:07:52,230
You've accomplished so much,
161
00:07:52,230 --> 00:07:54,730
I don't want anything
jeopardizing that.
162
00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:58,670
I mean, just think
of your poor sister.
163
00:07:59,270 --> 00:08:00,470
She was such a shining star
164
00:08:00,470 --> 00:08:02,130
Before she let
that blossom boy ruin her.
165
00:08:02,140 --> 00:08:03,640
Mom, i'm not polly.
166
00:08:04,310 --> 00:08:05,710
You missed curfew last night.
167
00:08:05,710 --> 00:08:07,410
By seven minutes.
168
00:08:07,410 --> 00:08:09,710
I was with archie,
who has red hair, yes,
169
00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:12,320
But is nothing
like jason blossom.
170
00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:15,520
Oh, but sweetie, all boys
are like jason blossom.
171
00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:19,130
I love you so much,
elizabeth.
172
00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:23,170
I just need you
to be smart, okay?
173
00:08:25,100 --> 00:08:26,570
And stay...
174
00:08:27,130 --> 00:08:28,390
Focused.
175
00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:31,400
I refilled your adderall.
176
00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:34,770
Seems you forgot
to pick up your prescription.
177
00:08:49,090 --> 00:08:51,520
Bro, you are ready
for football.
178
00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:53,080
I'm not kidding you, dude.
You got ripped.
179
00:08:53,090 --> 00:08:54,890
Dude, you're a beast.
Look at this arm, it's diesel!
180
00:08:54,890 --> 00:08:56,920
How much are you benching,
like 220? 225?
181
00:08:56,930 --> 00:08:58,330
You got to give me
some tips, man.
182
00:08:58,330 --> 00:09:01,090
Romanian deadlifts, right?
Taking some t?
183
00:09:01,100 --> 00:09:03,000
Ginseng?
184
00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:04,930
Maca root?
185
00:09:04,940 --> 00:09:06,105
Tribulus terrestris?
186
00:09:06,106 --> 00:09:07,670
It's from working
construction, reg.
187
00:09:07,670 --> 00:09:09,670
Oh, yeah, yeah, that's right.
Yo, moose.
188
00:09:10,710 --> 00:09:11,750
Look who grew up
over the summer.
Hey!
189
00:09:11,750 --> 00:09:13,100
Yo,
be honest with me.
190
00:09:13,110 --> 00:09:15,610
You work on any houses?
Any private homes?
191
00:09:15,610 --> 00:09:16,640
Yeah, a couple.
192
00:09:16,650 --> 00:09:19,720
Did you tap some cougar ass
this summer?
193
00:09:20,650 --> 00:09:21,510
You know what,
i think that's more a fantasy
194
00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:23,350
From your wank-bank, reggie.
195
00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:25,625
I'll catch you guys soon.
Peace out, brother.
196
00:09:25,626 --> 00:09:27,620
Totally did it, bro.
He totally did it.
197
00:09:28,490 --> 00:09:30,420
So, i usually start off
my tours
198
00:09:30,430 --> 00:09:33,100
With a little history
and context.
199
00:09:33,100 --> 00:09:36,000
Riverdale high first opened
its doors in 1941 and...
200
00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:38,600
And hasn't been redecorated
since, apparently.
201
00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:40,630
Honestly, i feel
like i'm wandering
202
00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:42,680
Through the lost epilogue
of our town.
203
00:09:43,580 --> 00:09:44,880
Uh-huh.
204
00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:47,250
So what's the social scene
like here? Any night clubs?
205
00:09:47,950 --> 00:09:49,220
A strip club
called the ho zone
206
00:09:49,220 --> 00:09:51,610
And a tragic gay bar
called innuendo.
207
00:09:51,620 --> 00:09:52,820
Friday nights, football games
208
00:09:52,820 --> 00:09:54,860
And then tailgate parties
at the mallmart parking lot.
209
00:09:55,490 --> 00:09:56,790
Saturday night is movie night,
210
00:09:56,790 --> 00:09:57,890
Regardless of what's playing
at the bijou,
211
00:09:57,890 --> 00:09:59,120
And you better
get there early,
212
00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:00,790
Because we don't have
reserved seating in riverdale.
213
00:10:00,790 --> 00:10:04,060
And sunday nights...
Thank god for hbo.
214
00:10:04,700 --> 00:10:06,635
Veronica lodge, kevin keller.
215
00:10:06,636 --> 00:10:09,060
Veronica's new here.
Kevin is...
...Gay, thank god.
216
00:10:09,070 --> 00:10:10,340
Let's be best friends.
217
00:10:10,340 --> 00:10:12,040
Is it true what they say
about your dad?
218
00:10:14,210 --> 00:10:16,110
That he's the devil incarnate?
219
00:10:17,140 --> 00:10:18,540
I stand by my father.
220
00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:21,040
Does everyone here know?
221
00:10:24,250 --> 00:10:26,320
Wonderful. Ten minutes in
and i'm already
222
00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:28,060
The blue jasmine
of riverdale high.
223
00:10:29,050 --> 00:10:30,250
What?
224
00:10:50,310 --> 00:10:50,350
Mm-mm.
225
00:10:52,340 --> 00:10:54,670
Excuse me,
this is a closed rehearsal.
226
00:10:55,110 --> 00:10:56,980
I'm sorry, i...
227
00:10:57,380 --> 00:10:58,780
Josie, right?
228
00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:00,890
I was hoping
i could talk to you
229
00:11:00,890 --> 00:11:02,060
About some songs that i wrote?
230
00:11:02,060 --> 00:11:04,350
Let me just
stop you right there.
231
00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:06,930
You're staring
at our pussycat ears,
232
00:11:06,930 --> 00:11:08,260
Which is rude,
233
00:11:08,260 --> 00:11:11,460
But let me break it,
and them, down for you.
234
00:11:11,460 --> 00:11:13,960
The pussycats
are building a brand,
235
00:11:13,970 --> 00:11:18,240
Creating a signature look,
okay? We're telling a story.
236
00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:21,510
Last year, we won
rockland county's
battle of the bands.
237
00:11:21,510 --> 00:11:22,640
That we did.
238
00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:26,070
This year, we'd like to build
on that success,
239
00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:28,980
Continue telling our story
240
00:11:28,980 --> 00:11:31,040
With songs we write.
241
00:11:31,750 --> 00:11:33,350
I get that. It's just...
242
00:11:33,350 --> 00:11:36,010
Read my glossed lips,
243
00:11:36,020 --> 00:11:37,580
Justin gingerlake.
244
00:11:38,090 --> 00:11:39,320
Not...
245
00:11:39,690 --> 00:11:41,150
Gonna...
246
00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:42,730
Happen.
247
00:11:45,330 --> 00:11:46,590
Oh, and of course there's
the back-to-school
248
00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:48,800
Semiformal dance
this weekend.
Oh!
249
00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:50,330
There's the hottie
we were with last night.
250
00:11:50,970 --> 00:11:52,770
The red-headed ansel elgort.
251
00:11:53,270 --> 00:11:54,630
Is he your boyfriend?
252
00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:56,480
No, he's straight.
No, we're just friends.
253
00:11:57,610 --> 00:11:59,850
In that case,
mind putting in a word?
254
00:12:00,750 --> 00:12:02,250
I've tried every flavor of boy
but orange.
255
00:12:02,250 --> 00:12:04,050
Actually, to clarify...
256
00:12:04,050 --> 00:12:05,890
Betty and archie
aren't dating,
257
00:12:05,890 --> 00:12:07,550
But they are endgame.
258
00:12:08,850 --> 00:12:10,420
You should ask him
to the semiformal then.
259
00:12:11,490 --> 00:12:12,950
She should, but i heard
it might be getting canceled.
260
00:12:13,690 --> 00:12:14,650
Because of what happened
to jason.
261
00:12:15,490 --> 00:12:16,650
They're gonna tell us
at the assembly.
262
00:12:16,660 --> 00:12:18,690
Who's jason
and what happened to him?
263
00:12:19,730 --> 00:12:21,830
Thank you
for that moment of silence.
264
00:12:21,830 --> 00:12:23,460
Many of you were lucky enough
265
00:12:23,470 --> 00:12:25,570
To have known
my brother personally.
266
00:12:26,670 --> 00:12:29,770
Each and every one of you
meant the world to jason.
267
00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:31,680
I loved my brother.
268
00:12:31,680 --> 00:12:34,750
He was and always will be
my soulmate.
269
00:12:35,450 --> 00:12:36,750
So i speak with the confidence
270
00:12:36,750 --> 00:12:38,120
Only a twin could have...
271
00:12:39,250 --> 00:12:42,180
Jason wouldn't want us
to spend the year mourning.
272
00:12:43,190 --> 00:12:46,560
Jason would want us
to move on with our lives.
273
00:12:47,490 --> 00:12:48,490
Which is why i've asked
the school board
274
00:12:48,490 --> 00:12:50,620
Not to cancel
the back-to-school semiformal.
275
00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:53,190
But rather, to let us use it
276
00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:56,230
As a way
to heal, collectively,
277
00:12:56,230 --> 00:13:00,200
And celebrate my brother's
too, too short life
on this mortal coil.
278
00:13:01,110 --> 00:13:02,610
Thank you all.
279
00:13:08,780 --> 00:13:11,080
Ms. Grundy? Hey.
Archie.
280
00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:13,660
What are you doing
walking in this heat?
281
00:13:14,250 --> 00:13:15,710
Um... Building character?
282
00:13:18,260 --> 00:13:19,490
Do you want a ride?
283
00:13:38,301 --> 00:13:46,800
== Sync, Corrected by Prabhat Rana ==
284
00:13:47,100 --> 00:13:49,900
Ms. Grundy. Ms. Grundy.
285
00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:53,130
Geraldine.
286
00:13:55,140 --> 00:13:57,170
What can i do for you,
mr. Andrews?
287
00:13:58,080 --> 00:14:00,110
Can we talk,
ms. Grundy, please?
288
00:14:00,850 --> 00:14:03,360
It depends. About what?
289
00:14:04,890 --> 00:14:06,460
Music.
290
00:14:06,460 --> 00:14:08,360
You're the music teacher.
Can we talk about music?
291
00:14:08,690 --> 00:14:10,190
Of course.
292
00:14:11,260 --> 00:14:12,460
Make an appointment.
293
00:14:13,460 --> 00:14:15,860
During my office hours,
my official office hours.
294
00:14:23,770 --> 00:14:25,570
Hermione lodge.
295
00:14:27,840 --> 00:14:30,470
Well, my day just got
a lot more interesting.
296
00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:31,650
Hello, fred.
297
00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:33,640
How are you?
298
00:14:33,980 --> 00:14:35,180
Surprised.
299
00:14:36,850 --> 00:14:38,880
Can i get you anything?
Would you like a water?
300
00:14:38,890 --> 00:14:40,290
A job.
301
00:14:41,420 --> 00:14:42,520
I saw on your website
302
00:14:42,520 --> 00:14:45,550
That you are looking
for a seasonal hire,
303
00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:46,920
Someone to help
with the books?
304
00:14:46,930 --> 00:14:49,800
Yeah, my guy's
on paternity leave.
305
00:14:50,800 --> 00:14:52,240
You know, i think
my daughter's going to school
306
00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:55,200
With your son,
isn't that funny?
307
00:14:56,200 --> 00:14:57,470
We'll have to tell them
that we knew each other,
308
00:14:58,340 --> 00:14:59,830
That we even dated,
for a little while...
309
00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:03,370
Well, at least until i...
...Chose the rich kid.
310
00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:06,020
And now,
a reversal of fortune.
311
00:15:08,580 --> 00:15:09,710
How's mary doing?
312
00:15:10,290 --> 00:15:12,190
She's in chicago.
313
00:15:12,190 --> 00:15:14,460
We split up. We're civil.
314
00:15:14,460 --> 00:15:15,790
How about you?
315
00:15:16,490 --> 00:15:18,890
How are you
holding up? Really?
316
00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:22,230
I have a little money saved.
317
00:15:23,070 --> 00:15:26,570
I was praying that someone
in riverdale,
318
00:15:27,340 --> 00:15:29,370
Maybe an old friend,
319
00:15:29,370 --> 00:15:31,130
Would be willing to give me
the benefit of the doubt.
320
00:15:32,070 --> 00:15:33,840
If it were up to me.
321
00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:36,740
Isn't it up to you?
It's your company.
322
00:15:38,310 --> 00:15:40,010
well, i have clients.
323
00:15:40,850 --> 00:15:42,190
I can't very well
have hermione lodge,
324
00:15:42,190 --> 00:15:43,680
The wife of hiram lodge,
325
00:15:43,690 --> 00:15:45,620
On trial for fraud
and embezzlement,
326
00:15:45,620 --> 00:15:47,520
Balancing my books.
327
00:15:47,790 --> 00:15:49,360
Can i?
328
00:15:49,830 --> 00:15:51,160
no.
329
00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:54,760
I suppose you can't.
330
00:16:07,210 --> 00:16:08,010
(folk-pop music continues
through speakers)
331
00:16:15,450 --> 00:16:16,610
Can i join?
332
00:16:17,350 --> 00:16:18,580
Yeah.
333
00:16:19,150 --> 00:16:20,320
What are we doing?
334
00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:22,020
Listening to one
of archie's songs.
335
00:16:22,020 --> 00:16:23,720
I thought we were going
to have to pretend
336
00:16:23,730 --> 00:16:26,430
To like it, but it's actually
really good.
337
00:16:26,430 --> 00:16:28,560
Wait, that was you singing?
338
00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:30,690
Something you wrote?
It's rough.
339
00:16:30,700 --> 00:16:31,970
No, it's great.
340
00:16:31,970 --> 00:16:34,770
It's incredible, actually,
the little snippet i heard.
341
00:16:34,770 --> 00:16:37,070
Is that your thing? Music?
342
00:16:37,070 --> 00:16:38,700
Are you doing something
with that?
343
00:16:39,270 --> 00:16:40,840
Yeah, that's the plan.
344
00:16:41,640 --> 00:16:42,640
So how's your
first day going? Good?
345
00:16:43,350 --> 00:16:45,050
Not to be
a complete narcissist,
346
00:16:45,050 --> 00:16:46,620
But i thought people
would be more...
347
00:16:46,620 --> 00:16:48,320
Obsessed with you?
348
00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:50,510
Any other year,
you'd be trending number one,
for sure.
349
00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:52,420
This year, though,
it's all about cheryl
350
00:16:52,420 --> 00:16:54,380
Trying to win
the best supporting psycho
oscar
351
00:16:54,390 --> 00:16:57,530
For her role
as riverdale high's
bereaved red widow.
352
00:16:57,530 --> 00:16:59,460
Hey, i should go.
I got that meeting with grundy
353
00:16:59,460 --> 00:17:00,660
And then football tryouts, so.
354
00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:03,600
You play football, too?
What don't you do?
355
00:17:05,100 --> 00:17:06,590
Before you ask,
blue jasmine, no,
356
00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:08,100
She has not invited him
to the dance yet...
357
00:17:08,100 --> 00:17:09,660
Not yet, and don't
talk about archie.
358
00:17:09,670 --> 00:17:12,800
Veronica lodge,
i'd heard whisperings.
359
00:17:12,810 --> 00:17:14,850
I'm cheryl blossom, may i sit?
360
00:17:15,340 --> 00:17:16,500
Betty, would you mind?
361
00:17:19,580 --> 00:17:22,410
So, what are you three hens
gossiping about?
362
00:17:23,650 --> 00:17:25,710
Archie's efron-esque emergence
from the chrysalis of puberty?
363
00:17:27,620 --> 00:17:29,480
Extracurriculars.
364
00:17:29,490 --> 00:17:31,190
Weatherbee wants me
to sign up for a few.
365
00:17:31,730 --> 00:17:33,760
Cheerleading. You must.
366
00:17:33,760 --> 00:17:35,820
I'm senior captain
of the river vixens.
367
00:17:36,460 --> 00:17:37,560
Is cheerleading still a thing?
368
00:17:38,430 --> 00:17:40,030
Is being the gay best friend
still a thing?
369
00:17:41,270 --> 00:17:45,270
Some people say it's retro,
i say it's eternal and iconic.
370
00:17:45,270 --> 00:17:47,870
At spence, i sat at the top
of the elites' pyramid.
371
00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:49,050
I'm in.
372
00:17:49,740 --> 00:17:50,870
Betty, you're trying out, too.
373
00:17:51,750 --> 00:17:54,220
Of course,
anyone's welcome to try out,
374
00:17:54,220 --> 00:17:55,950
But betty's already
got so much
375
00:17:55,950 --> 00:17:57,380
On her plate right now
376
00:17:58,350 --> 00:17:59,610
And being a vixen
is kind of a full-time thing.
377
00:17:59,620 --> 00:18:01,750
But open to all!
378
00:18:02,690 --> 00:18:04,520
Follow me on twitter
and i'll do the same.
379
00:18:05,390 --> 00:18:07,490
My handle is @cherylbombshell.
380
00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:11,830
Okay. Go ahead and hate
on cheerleading,
381
00:18:11,830 --> 00:18:13,160
But if hipster prince harry...
382
00:18:13,170 --> 00:18:15,970
I'd love to be a cheerleader.
383
00:18:16,940 --> 00:18:18,380
It would look great
on my college applications.
384
00:18:18,380 --> 00:18:20,600
But last year,
when i tried out,
385
00:18:20,610 --> 00:18:22,210
Cheryl said i was too fat.
386
00:18:22,210 --> 00:18:23,770
"too season 5 betty draper."
387
00:18:23,780 --> 00:18:25,310
It was a great line,
388
00:18:25,310 --> 00:18:27,280
But not at all true.
389
00:18:28,080 --> 00:18:30,580
Well, you're a total
smoke show now.
390
00:18:30,590 --> 00:18:31,720
I mean it.
391
00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:34,920
As hot and as smart
as you are,
392
00:18:34,920 --> 00:18:37,720
You should be the
queen bey of this drab hive.
393
00:18:38,530 --> 00:18:41,230
Look, if you want
to be a river vixen,
394
00:18:41,230 --> 00:18:43,330
I'll help you prep.
I have moves.
395
00:18:45,200 --> 00:18:48,960
Okay. You know what?
Show me your moves.
396
00:18:49,800 --> 00:18:51,530
(archie's song playing
through earbuds)
397
00:18:59,410 --> 00:19:00,710
They're...
398
00:19:01,620 --> 00:19:02,920
Very real,
399
00:19:03,950 --> 00:19:05,310
Very personal.
400
00:19:06,120 --> 00:19:07,050
I took your advice
and wrote them down.
401
00:19:07,060 --> 00:19:09,030
Polished them.
402
00:19:10,060 --> 00:19:11,100
But i was wondering maybe
if you could help me...
403
00:19:11,860 --> 00:19:13,620
With what, archie?
404
00:19:14,360 --> 00:19:15,620
You went to juilliard,
ms. Grundy.
405
00:19:15,630 --> 00:19:17,560
There is no one else
in riverdale
i can take lessons from.
406
00:19:17,570 --> 00:19:19,100
Believe me, i've looked.
407
00:19:19,100 --> 00:19:21,730
Well, i don't think
that's a good idea.
408
00:19:23,940 --> 00:19:25,910
i don't think we should
be alone together.
409
00:19:28,810 --> 00:19:32,810
If this is you trying
to restart something
410
00:19:32,810 --> 00:19:35,280
That never should've
started in the first...
411
00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:38,380
No, it's not.
It is about the music.
412
00:19:41,360 --> 00:19:42,890
But it's also...
413
00:19:45,890 --> 00:19:47,090
Come on,
i need to be able
414
00:19:47,100 --> 00:19:48,730
To talk about what happened
with someone.
415
00:19:49,360 --> 00:19:50,490
We heard what we heard
416
00:19:50,500 --> 00:19:52,240
And afterwards,
we didn't do anything.
417
00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:53,800
We didn't say anything.
418
00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:03,940
We heard fireworks.
419
00:20:04,980 --> 00:20:06,520
Who's lighting fireworks
at 6:00 in the morning?
420
00:20:07,350 --> 00:20:09,750
How would we explain
why we were together
421
00:20:09,750 --> 00:20:12,080
At sweetwater river
at 6:00 a.M.
On the fourth of july?
422
00:20:13,420 --> 00:20:15,750
And you're right.
423
00:20:15,760 --> 00:20:17,530
We didn't say anything.
424
00:20:19,890 --> 00:20:22,190
We're both going to have to
live with that choice.
425
00:20:23,830 --> 00:20:25,290
Do you understand?
426
00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:29,110
I think you should
pursue your music,
427
00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:31,610
But not with me.
428
00:20:39,680 --> 00:20:41,380
We're dynamite!
429
00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:43,760
We'll take you down,
430
00:20:44,220 --> 00:20:46,060
And fight the fight!
431
00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:48,420
Whoo! Go, bulldogs!
432
00:20:49,020 --> 00:20:50,190
Hmm.
433
00:20:51,190 --> 00:20:53,460
Ladies, where's the heat?
Where's the sizzle?
434
00:20:54,400 --> 00:20:57,170
Well, you haven't seen
our big finish yet.
435
00:20:58,100 --> 00:20:59,390
don't freak out.
Just trust me.
436
00:21:14,380 --> 00:21:16,210
Check your
sell-by date, ladies,
437
00:21:16,220 --> 00:21:19,990
Faux lesbian kissing
hasn't been taboo since 1994.
438
00:21:21,420 --> 00:21:23,420
So let's see if you do better
with the interview portion
of our audition.
439
00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:25,760
Betty,
how's your sister doing?
440
00:21:27,100 --> 00:21:29,870
Um, polly's fine,
thanks for asking.
441
00:21:29,870 --> 00:21:31,970
Veronica, has betty told you
about her sister yet?
442
00:21:31,970 --> 00:21:34,340
Uh, no.
Go ahead, betty.
443
00:21:35,400 --> 00:21:37,070
Tell veronica
about your sister
and my dear brother.
444
00:21:37,740 --> 00:21:38,840
Polly and jason dated.
445
00:21:38,840 --> 00:21:40,600
i wouldn't say "dated".
446
00:21:41,380 --> 00:21:43,550
It didn't end well.
In fact,
447
00:21:44,710 --> 00:21:46,810
Jason's probably why
your sister had
a nervous breakdown
448
00:21:46,820 --> 00:21:49,350
And now lives in a group home,
isn't it?
449
00:21:49,350 --> 00:21:50,610
That's what my parents think.
450
00:21:51,490 --> 00:21:52,960
What do you have to say
about that, betty?
451
00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:54,680
Go ahead, the floor is yours.
452
00:21:55,690 --> 00:21:57,250
Whatever you've been dying
to spew about jason
453
00:21:57,260 --> 00:21:59,900
And how he treated polly,
unleash it.
454
00:22:00,530 --> 00:22:02,430
Destroy me. Tear me a new one.
455
00:22:02,430 --> 00:22:04,430
Rip me to shreds.
Annihilate me.
456
00:22:04,430 --> 00:22:05,660
I just...
457
00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:07,940
Finally.
458
00:22:12,410 --> 00:22:14,780
I just wanted
to say i'm sorry
459
00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:18,180
About what happened to jason.
460
00:22:18,180 --> 00:22:20,440
I can't even imagine
what you and your family
461
00:22:20,450 --> 00:22:21,690
Must be going through.
462
00:22:23,290 --> 00:22:24,890
Right.
463
00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:28,350
Veronica,
welcome to the river vixens.
464
00:22:28,990 --> 00:22:31,790
Betty, better luck next time.
465
00:22:33,460 --> 00:22:36,720
Wait, what? Why?
466
00:22:37,830 --> 00:22:39,860
Because you couldn't bully
betty into being a bitch?
467
00:22:40,600 --> 00:22:42,100
I need girls with fire
on my squad.
468
00:22:43,240 --> 00:22:45,710
I know what you need, cheryl,
469
00:22:46,310 --> 00:22:47,780
Because i know who you are.
470
00:22:48,740 --> 00:22:51,370
You would rather
people fear
than like you,
471
00:22:51,380 --> 00:22:53,890
So you traffic
in terror and intimidation.
472
00:22:54,950 --> 00:22:57,580
You're rich, so you've never
been held accountable,
473
00:22:57,590 --> 00:22:59,490
But i'm living proof.
474
00:22:59,490 --> 00:23:01,890
That certainty,
that entitlement
475
00:23:01,890 --> 00:23:03,520
You wear on your head
like a crown?
476
00:23:04,360 --> 00:23:05,830
It won't last.
477
00:23:06,630 --> 00:23:08,330
Eventually, there will be
a reckoning.
478
00:23:10,530 --> 00:23:12,560
Or...
479
00:23:12,570 --> 00:23:15,440
Maybe that reckoning
is now.
480
00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:18,110
And maybe, that reckoning...
481
00:23:19,310 --> 00:23:20,680
Is me.
482
00:23:21,910 --> 00:23:23,970
Betty and i come
as a matching set.
483
00:23:23,980 --> 00:23:25,980
You want one,
you take us both.
484
00:23:26,750 --> 00:23:28,090
You wanted fire?
485
00:23:29,020 --> 00:23:32,520
Sorry, cherrybombshell,
my specialty's ice.
486
00:23:36,460 --> 00:23:38,300
Go, get around him.
Get around him.
487
00:23:39,890 --> 00:23:41,220
Let's move.
488
00:23:41,230 --> 00:23:42,830
Andrews!
489
00:23:46,530 --> 00:23:48,860
There we go. Looking good.
490
00:23:50,540 --> 00:23:52,710
What's up, coach?
Here.
491
00:23:58,410 --> 00:24:00,880
This is jason's number.
It's yours now.
492
00:24:01,680 --> 00:24:03,140
Usually, sophomores,
they only play jv.
493
00:24:03,150 --> 00:24:05,350
This year, we've got
an open spot in varsity.
494
00:24:05,350 --> 00:24:08,280
From what you've
been showing us,
well, i want you to fill it.
495
00:24:09,020 --> 00:24:11,890
Varsity's got
longer practices.
496
00:24:11,890 --> 00:24:13,150
More away games.
497
00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:14,690
Yeah, bigger commitment, yeah.
498
00:24:14,700 --> 00:24:16,500
Well, i need to think
about it, coach. I...
499
00:24:17,370 --> 00:24:19,000
Oh, what, you got
something better to do?
500
00:24:20,970 --> 00:24:22,470
My dad's company.
501
00:24:22,470 --> 00:24:23,730
It's our family business,
502
00:24:23,740 --> 00:24:25,010
And he's sort of counting
on me to help out
503
00:24:25,010 --> 00:24:26,275
After school, on weekends...
504
00:24:26,276 --> 00:24:27,740
Hold up, jackson,
hold the ball.
505
00:24:28,740 --> 00:24:30,710
You know what,
why don't you sleep on it.
506
00:24:31,510 --> 00:24:32,970
Let's go. Bring it in, guys.
Come on.
507
00:24:41,890 --> 00:24:43,820
perfect.
508
00:24:44,430 --> 00:24:46,730
Very betty draper, season 1.
509
00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:53,190
Veronica.
510
00:24:54,540 --> 00:24:57,540
Why did...
Why did you defend me?
511
00:24:58,940 --> 00:25:02,200
I know the crowd
you ran with
in new york.
512
00:25:03,080 --> 00:25:06,650
Why are you being so... Nice?
513
00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:10,240
When my father got arrested,
514
00:25:10,250 --> 00:25:12,710
It was the worst thing ever.
515
00:25:13,460 --> 00:25:16,220
All these trolls
started writing
516
00:25:16,220 --> 00:25:17,920
Horrible things about us.
517
00:25:19,290 --> 00:25:21,890
We'd get letters and e-mails
saying that
518
00:25:21,900 --> 00:25:23,270
My dad was a thief,
519
00:25:23,970 --> 00:25:25,970
My mom
was a clueless socialite,
520
00:25:25,970 --> 00:25:29,810
And that i was
the spoiled rich-bitch
ice princess.
521
00:25:30,870 --> 00:25:33,940
And what hurt the most
about it was...
522
00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:38,480
The things the trolls
were writing were true.
523
00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:42,810
I was like cheryl.
I was worse than cheryl.
524
00:25:43,790 --> 00:25:46,820
So, when my mom said
we were moving to riverdale,
525
00:25:47,560 --> 00:25:49,290
I made a pact with myself
526
00:25:50,260 --> 00:25:53,960
To use this
as an opportunity
to become
527
00:25:53,960 --> 00:25:57,960
Maybe, hopefully,
a better version of myself.
528
00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:01,300
That's a lot of pressure.
529
00:26:05,340 --> 00:26:08,740
When polly and jason
got together...
530
00:26:08,740 --> 00:26:10,910
It meant everything to her
531
00:26:10,910 --> 00:26:13,340
And nothing to him,
532
00:26:13,350 --> 00:26:16,550
And...
533
00:26:16,550 --> 00:26:20,550
And things got super
intense and weird and toxic
534
00:26:20,560 --> 00:26:22,460
And my mom turned on polly.
535
00:26:23,430 --> 00:26:25,800
Said polly wasn't
her daughter anymore,
536
00:26:25,800 --> 00:26:28,560
Said all these
awful things to her.
537
00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:30,840
Jason hurt polly,
538
00:26:33,440 --> 00:26:35,440
But it's my mom who broke her.
539
00:26:41,380 --> 00:26:42,610
Archie.
540
00:26:43,340 --> 00:26:44,370
You're so doing this.
What?
541
00:26:44,380 --> 00:26:46,580
Slaying your dragons,
betty cooper, one by one.
542
00:26:48,980 --> 00:26:51,250
Hi, teen outlander.
Hey.
543
00:26:51,250 --> 00:26:52,780
Nice outfits.
544
00:26:53,690 --> 00:26:56,690
Betty here has something
she wants to ask you
545
00:26:56,690 --> 00:26:57,920
About the
back-to-school dance.
546
00:26:59,490 --> 00:27:01,060
Go on, betty, ask.
547
00:27:02,430 --> 00:27:06,190
I was wondering
if you wanted
to come
548
00:27:06,200 --> 00:27:08,700
With both of us.
549
00:27:09,140 --> 00:27:10,680
Huh?
What?
550
00:27:11,870 --> 00:27:14,070
It's your first dance
at riverdale.
551
00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:15,410
You should have
someone to go with,
552
00:27:15,410 --> 00:27:17,240
Even if it's just a friend.
553
00:27:19,510 --> 00:27:21,380
I mean, i'd love to.
554
00:27:22,320 --> 00:27:23,520
I'm not really in the
headspace for a dance.
555
00:27:24,550 --> 00:27:26,110
Oh. That's okay.
556
00:27:27,460 --> 00:27:31,230
Totally unacceptable,
archiekins.
We need an escort.
557
00:27:32,230 --> 00:27:34,200
Take a break from being
a tortured musical genius
558
00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:36,170
And come spend
a blissful evening
559
00:27:36,170 --> 00:27:40,260
With not one, but two
newly-minted river vixens.
560
00:27:40,970 --> 00:27:42,410
We'll text you time and place.
561
00:27:43,070 --> 00:27:46,230
okay. Yeah, okay.
562
00:27:46,670 --> 00:27:47,940
Bye.
Bye.
563
00:28:06,730 --> 00:28:06,760
what is that?
564
00:28:11,470 --> 00:28:13,270
I made the cheerleading squad.
565
00:28:14,570 --> 00:28:16,340
Cheryl blossom's
cheerleading squad?
566
00:28:17,810 --> 00:28:19,780
After what jason did to polly?
567
00:28:20,540 --> 00:28:23,140
No, i'm sorry.
I won't allow it.
568
00:28:24,150 --> 00:28:25,520
Take that off right now.
569
00:28:27,550 --> 00:28:29,820
No.
What did you say to me?
570
00:28:30,750 --> 00:28:33,250
I do everything for everyone.
571
00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:36,050
Everything to be perfect.
572
00:28:37,360 --> 00:28:39,830
The perfect daughter,
the perfect sister,
the perfect student...
573
00:28:40,700 --> 00:28:42,930
Can't i do this one thing
just for me?
574
00:28:43,570 --> 00:28:44,500
Wait.
Get out of my way.
575
00:28:44,500 --> 00:28:46,840
Where are you going?
To buy a dress.
576
00:28:46,840 --> 00:28:48,830
Because guess what?
577
00:28:49,670 --> 00:28:51,570
I'm also gong to the dance
with archie.
578
00:28:52,810 --> 00:28:54,610
And veronica.
579
00:28:55,410 --> 00:28:56,700
Wait. Hermione lodge's
daughter?
580
00:28:57,350 --> 00:28:58,780
She's actually really nice.
581
00:28:58,780 --> 00:29:00,340
And trying
to be a good person.
582
00:29:00,350 --> 00:29:02,050
You think so?
583
00:29:02,050 --> 00:29:03,580
You think she's going to be
your friend?
584
00:29:04,150 --> 00:29:05,480
Let me tell you something.
585
00:29:06,320 --> 00:29:08,580
Girls like cheryl
and veronica lodge,
586
00:29:08,590 --> 00:29:09,950
They don't like girls like us.
587
00:29:09,960 --> 00:29:11,760
I don't want to hear it, mom.
588
00:29:12,430 --> 00:29:14,670
It's happening. I'm going.
589
00:29:17,470 --> 00:29:18,870
Thank you, smithers.
590
00:29:18,870 --> 00:29:20,605
As always, you're a godsend.
591
00:29:20,606 --> 00:29:22,100
Happy to help, ms. Hermione.
592
00:29:22,740 --> 00:29:24,010
Unlike the rest of riverdale.
593
00:29:24,610 --> 00:29:26,540
Hmm.
What's that?
594
00:29:27,040 --> 00:29:28,340
Oh. Um...
595
00:29:29,110 --> 00:29:31,140
A spot of good news.
The car service
596
00:29:31,150 --> 00:29:33,750
Found and dropped off
your missing bag.
597
00:29:35,820 --> 00:29:37,320
Missing bag?
598
00:29:46,430 --> 00:29:50,370
Oh, hiram...
What have you done?
599
00:30:06,310 --> 00:30:09,540
I, um... I got a call
from your coach today.
600
00:30:10,320 --> 00:30:11,420
He's under the impression
601
00:30:11,420 --> 00:30:12,820
That you can't play
varsity football
602
00:30:12,820 --> 00:30:15,620
Because i'm making you
work for me.
603
00:30:15,620 --> 00:30:18,090
Which is odd,
because you made it
seem like
604
00:30:18,090 --> 00:30:19,090
You couldn't work for me
605
00:30:19,090 --> 00:30:20,720
Because you were
playing football.
606
00:30:20,730 --> 00:30:23,300
So my first question is...
607
00:30:24,470 --> 00:30:26,770
Who are you lying to?
608
00:30:27,440 --> 00:30:28,940
Me or your coach?
609
00:30:31,540 --> 00:30:33,080
Neither.
610
00:30:35,910 --> 00:30:37,140
Both.
611
00:30:41,950 --> 00:30:43,820
Dad...
612
00:30:45,990 --> 00:30:47,490
I want to study music,
613
00:30:48,220 --> 00:30:49,720
I want to write music.
614
00:30:50,360 --> 00:30:52,195
Football takes you to college.
615
00:30:52,196 --> 00:30:53,890
College takes you
to business school.
616
00:30:53,900 --> 00:30:56,200
Business school...
Takes me back here.
617
00:30:56,200 --> 00:30:57,740
To work for you in riverdale.
618
00:30:58,200 --> 00:31:00,440
Not for me, with me.
619
00:31:01,670 --> 00:31:04,310
And eventually
for yourself, son.
620
00:31:04,310 --> 00:31:05,980
The company would be yours.
621
00:31:08,010 --> 00:31:09,550
No disrespect, dad,
622
00:31:12,480 --> 00:31:14,240
But i don't want it.
623
00:31:15,420 --> 00:31:17,520
Three months ago, you did.
624
00:31:18,950 --> 00:31:20,920
What happened?
625
00:31:21,760 --> 00:31:25,030
I've changed.
Everything's changed.
626
00:31:25,630 --> 00:31:26,960
This summer...
627
00:31:27,860 --> 00:31:29,290
This summer what?
628
00:31:34,540 --> 00:31:36,510
That's it?
629
00:31:37,070 --> 00:31:38,200
We don't talk anymore?
630
00:31:40,980 --> 00:31:42,180
Dad.
631
00:31:43,040 --> 00:31:44,910
I would never force you
to play football.
632
00:31:46,180 --> 00:31:47,980
I don't care
if you play football.
633
00:31:49,120 --> 00:31:53,120
And you don't have to work
with me or for me, ever again.
634
00:31:54,490 --> 00:31:56,860
But some advice, man-to-man?
635
00:31:56,860 --> 00:31:59,400
These decisions
that you're making now, son,
636
00:32:00,430 --> 00:32:01,630
They have consequences.
637
00:32:01,630 --> 00:32:03,070
They go on to form who you are
638
00:32:03,070 --> 00:32:04,630
And who you'll become.
639
00:32:05,270 --> 00:32:07,400
Whatever you decide,
640
00:32:07,400 --> 00:32:11,100
Be confident enough in it
that you don't have to lie.
641
00:32:24,390 --> 00:32:26,690
Ing)
642
00:32:34,260 --> 00:32:35,860
Well, it's not the met ball.
643
00:32:38,470 --> 00:32:40,835
Hey. When do you have
to let coach clayton
644
00:32:40,836 --> 00:32:42,930
Know about football?
This weekend.
645
00:32:42,940 --> 00:32:45,810
Guys, can't we just
liberate ourselves
646
00:32:45,810 --> 00:32:48,810
From the tired dichotomy
of jock/artist?
647
00:32:49,710 --> 00:32:52,010
Can't we, in this post
james franco world,
648
00:32:52,010 --> 00:32:54,270
Be all things at once?
649
00:32:55,050 --> 00:32:56,050
I've been working
on it, veronica.
650
00:32:57,220 --> 00:33:00,690
Work faster.
I'm getting punch.
651
00:33:00,690 --> 00:33:02,290
you got this.
652
00:33:04,960 --> 00:33:07,000
It's about following
your heart, right?
653
00:33:09,130 --> 00:33:12,070
What does your heart say?
Music or football?
654
00:33:13,870 --> 00:33:15,470
Betty, will you give me
one minute?
655
00:33:15,470 --> 00:33:16,710
And i promise,
when i get back,
656
00:33:16,710 --> 00:33:18,270
I'll be a much
better date, okay?
657
00:33:18,270 --> 00:33:19,770
I have a plan.
658
00:33:22,510 --> 00:33:24,710
Betty, you will not believe
who just propositioned me
659
00:33:24,710 --> 00:33:26,570
In the bathroom.
Give you a hint...
660
00:33:26,580 --> 00:33:28,140
His name may be moose,
661
00:33:28,150 --> 00:33:30,020
But i'd describe
a certain appendage of his
662
00:33:30,020 --> 00:33:31,820
As horse-like.
663
00:33:38,660 --> 00:33:40,300
Don't panic,
i'm not stalking you.
664
00:33:41,360 --> 00:33:45,060
Archie, didn't we
have a deal?
665
00:33:46,970 --> 00:33:49,140
No, geraldine,
we have a secret,
666
00:33:49,740 --> 00:33:51,480
Multiple secrets, actually.
667
00:33:52,770 --> 00:33:54,230
And maybe we could've
done something
to help jason that morning,
668
00:33:54,240 --> 00:33:55,500
Or maybe we couldn't have.
669
00:33:56,610 --> 00:33:58,210
And i won't tell
anyone anything,
670
00:33:58,210 --> 00:34:00,010
But you need to help me.
671
00:34:00,950 --> 00:34:02,320
This summer, the only thing
that kept me sane
672
00:34:02,320 --> 00:34:03,520
Was writing these songs.
673
00:34:04,890 --> 00:34:07,720
So here's my
not-so-indecent proposal.
674
00:34:07,720 --> 00:34:09,620
I want to do
an independent study with you,
675
00:34:09,620 --> 00:34:11,920
As many mornings a week
as you can spare, and i swear
676
00:34:11,930 --> 00:34:13,360
That's all it'll be.
677
00:34:14,360 --> 00:34:17,460
And i won't tell anyone
about july fourth, ever.
678
00:34:17,460 --> 00:34:18,660
Deal?
679
00:34:20,630 --> 00:34:26,400
Monday, wednesday,
friday, 7:30 a.M.,
before first period.
680
00:34:26,410 --> 00:34:27,840
I'll set it up
681
00:34:28,580 --> 00:34:30,010
And see about getting
you credit.
682
00:34:41,020 --> 00:34:42,320
Good evening, friends.
683
00:34:42,320 --> 00:34:43,880
Are you all having
a good time?
684
00:34:48,460 --> 00:34:51,190
As honorary chairperson
and de facto queen
685
00:34:51,200 --> 00:34:52,370
Of tonight's semiformal,
686
00:34:52,930 --> 00:34:53,990
It is my great pleasure
687
00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:55,730
To introduce this evening's
main entertainment.
688
00:34:56,640 --> 00:34:58,575
To know them
is to be obsessed with them.
689
00:34:58,576 --> 00:35:01,200
Though they usually perform
their own material,
690
00:35:01,210 --> 00:35:02,910
Tonight, they're making
an exception
691
00:35:02,910 --> 00:35:05,370
And debuting a cover
of the song my parents claim
they were listening to
692
00:35:05,380 --> 00:35:07,280
The night jason and i
were conceived.
693
00:35:08,250 --> 00:35:09,720
This one's for you, jj.
694
00:35:11,290 --> 00:35:13,420
Sorry about that.
-I give you
josie and the pussycats.
695
00:35:23,430 --> 00:35:24,930
Wanna dance?
Yeah.
696
00:35:27,830 --> 00:35:29,200
Did that go okay?
697
00:35:30,300 --> 00:35:32,370
Yeah, yes. I'll study
with ms. Grundy
before school,
698
00:35:33,070 --> 00:35:34,430
Football practice
after school,
699
00:35:34,440 --> 00:35:36,170
And work with my dad
on the weekends.
700
00:35:36,180 --> 00:35:37,410
It's going to be nuts.
701
00:35:38,350 --> 00:35:39,720
So long as you don't give up
your passion.
702
00:35:55,260 --> 00:35:57,020
Um...
703
00:35:57,030 --> 00:36:00,190
Now that i'm a river vixen
704
00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:03,830
And you're gonna be
on varsity football,
705
00:36:03,840 --> 00:36:07,880
I have this fantasy of us
as a power couple...
706
00:36:08,880 --> 00:36:10,780
Or maybe even just
a couple.
707
00:36:11,140 --> 00:36:12,440
Betty...
708
00:36:13,850 --> 00:36:16,050
Is that so impossible
to imagine?
709
00:36:22,020 --> 00:36:23,780
(crowd applauding
and cheering)
710
00:36:30,860 --> 00:36:33,590
Make sure those two
turtledoves
come to my after-party.
711
00:36:34,030 --> 00:36:35,430
Veronica too.
712
00:36:36,100 --> 00:36:37,530
I'm in the mood
for chaos.
713
00:36:41,230 --> 00:36:43,930
It's game time
at chez blossom, kiddies.
714
00:36:44,660 --> 00:36:46,260
We're going
old-school tonight.
715
00:36:46,260 --> 00:36:47,830
Seven minutes in heaven.
716
00:36:47,830 --> 00:36:50,230
Who wants to tryst
in the closet of love first?
717
00:36:50,800 --> 00:36:52,300
My vote is "a" for archie.
718
00:36:53,670 --> 00:36:54,800
Anyone care to second it?
719
00:36:54,810 --> 00:36:57,810
Wait, actually...
Yes, andrews! Yes.
720
00:36:57,810 --> 00:37:00,450
All right. Gather round, kids.
721
00:37:01,550 --> 00:37:03,250
Let's see who's riding
the ginger stallion tonight.
722
00:37:13,390 --> 00:37:15,850
oh, no way!
723
00:37:16,760 --> 00:37:19,690
It's clearly pointing to...
The new girl.
724
00:37:20,160 --> 00:37:21,330
This should be fun.
725
00:37:21,330 --> 00:37:23,560
Um... I'm not doing this.
726
00:37:24,040 --> 00:37:25,700
That's up to you.
727
00:37:25,700 --> 00:37:27,230
But, if you don't,
728
00:37:27,240 --> 00:37:29,980
House rules decree
the hostess
gets to take your turn.
729
00:37:39,020 --> 00:37:42,150
I know her brother died
and everything,
730
00:37:42,150 --> 00:37:43,450
But...
731
00:37:43,450 --> 00:37:46,580
Cheryl blossom
truly is the antichrist.
732
00:37:51,760 --> 00:37:54,530
So, uh, do you miss new york?
733
00:37:56,030 --> 00:37:57,960
It's been less than a week.
734
00:37:59,100 --> 00:38:00,930
But... Yes.
735
00:38:03,610 --> 00:38:05,610
Six minutes, twenty seconds.
736
00:38:06,440 --> 00:38:08,140
Okay. Your turn.
737
00:38:08,150 --> 00:38:10,620
Ask me a deep,
probing question
738
00:38:10,620 --> 00:38:12,420
To kill time.
739
00:38:14,720 --> 00:38:17,690
It looked like you and betty
were having fun at the dance.
740
00:38:18,560 --> 00:38:20,190
Definitely. We've been
friends forever.
741
00:38:21,130 --> 00:38:23,400
My turn.
I didn't ask my question yet.
742
00:38:24,360 --> 00:38:26,560
Is that all it is?
743
00:38:26,560 --> 00:38:28,590
Just friends?
744
00:38:29,830 --> 00:38:31,560
We're not just friends,
we're best friends.
745
00:38:33,870 --> 00:38:37,540
My turn. Did you have
a boyfriend in new york?
746
00:38:39,180 --> 00:38:40,350
No.
747
00:38:40,780 --> 00:38:42,310
My turn.
748
00:38:42,310 --> 00:38:45,340
Could it ever possibly
become something more?
749
00:38:46,180 --> 00:38:47,440
Are you asking for betty
or for yourself?
750
00:38:48,420 --> 00:38:51,390
For betty, and you didn't
answer my question.
751
00:38:52,120 --> 00:38:54,420
I have never felt...
Whatever it is
752
00:38:54,430 --> 00:38:56,560
I'm supposed to feel
753
00:38:56,560 --> 00:38:57,790
With betty.
754
00:38:58,360 --> 00:38:59,720
Have you felt it, though?
755
00:39:01,170 --> 00:39:02,670
With anyone?
756
00:39:02,670 --> 00:39:04,510
Yeah.
757
00:39:06,700 --> 00:39:08,070
This summer.
758
00:39:08,970 --> 00:39:12,040
Have you?
Maybe once.
759
00:39:16,380 --> 00:39:19,010
You're a little more dangerous
than you look, aren't you?
760
00:39:20,990 --> 00:39:22,660
All boy-next-door-ish?
761
00:39:24,690 --> 00:39:26,030
You have no idea.
762
00:39:29,030 --> 00:39:30,560
Your turn.
763
00:39:33,830 --> 00:39:37,390
Ask me a question, archie.
764
00:39:41,410 --> 00:39:42,810
Ask me anything you want.
765
00:39:49,780 --> 00:39:51,710
We shouldn't do this.
766
00:39:51,720 --> 00:39:53,050
We definitely shouldn't
do this.
767
00:40:03,840 --> 00:40:05,510
Nailed it.
768
00:40:05,780 --> 00:40:06,940
Yes.
769
00:40:08,750 --> 00:40:09,990
Where's betty?
770
00:40:10,650 --> 00:40:12,010
She spiraled and fled.
771
00:40:12,020 --> 00:40:14,460
Between us, she's a lot more
high-strung than she looks.
772
00:40:14,860 --> 00:40:16,860
You shady bitch.
773
00:40:19,860 --> 00:40:21,090
Crap. Betty's cell is off.
774
00:40:21,100 --> 00:40:22,400
I'm getting an uber.
Can i come with you?
775
00:40:22,400 --> 00:40:23,570
We should probably
try to find her.
776
00:40:23,570 --> 00:40:25,660
Believe me.
The last thing
betty wants
777
00:40:25,670 --> 00:40:27,810
Is us tracking
her down together.
778
00:40:28,700 --> 00:40:30,100
We messed up.
779
00:40:41,020 --> 00:40:43,720
Hey, you're home early.
How was the dance?
780
00:40:45,390 --> 00:40:47,160
It was fine.
781
00:40:48,090 --> 00:40:49,730
I mean, it's not the met ball
or anything...
782
00:40:50,630 --> 00:40:52,260
Tell me about it.
You can cheer me up.
783
00:40:53,160 --> 00:40:54,660
I'm super tired, mom.
784
00:41:00,200 --> 00:41:01,530
Is everything okay?
785
00:41:04,510 --> 00:41:06,310
Ronnie, what is it?
786
00:41:14,280 --> 00:41:17,650
It was midnight,
and my old friend
archie andrews
787
00:41:17,650 --> 00:41:20,310
Arrived at the one place
in town that was still open.
788
00:41:21,190 --> 00:41:23,690
He was looking
for the girl next door.
789
00:41:25,760 --> 00:41:28,020
Instead, he found me.
790
00:41:31,070 --> 00:41:34,070
Hey, pop. Betty hasn't come
in tonight, has she?
791
00:41:34,940 --> 00:41:37,810
Nope.
Just the night hawks
in tonight.
792
00:41:39,270 --> 00:41:40,630
Thanks.
793
00:41:47,850 --> 00:41:49,620
Uh, can i sit, jughead?
794
00:41:50,080 --> 00:41:51,380
If you want.
795
00:41:53,790 --> 00:41:56,330
What are you working on?
My novel.
796
00:41:57,220 --> 00:41:59,550
It's about this summer,
and jason blossom.
797
00:42:00,560 --> 00:42:02,160
Seventeen years old
and how will he be remembered?
798
00:42:03,730 --> 00:42:05,690
As captain
of the water polo team?
799
00:42:05,700 --> 00:42:07,390
The aquaholics?
800
00:42:08,200 --> 00:42:10,560
Considering how he died,
probably not.
801
00:42:11,070 --> 00:42:12,500
No, what i mean is...
802
00:42:14,640 --> 00:42:16,800
Was he doing everything
he was supposed to do,
803
00:42:18,010 --> 00:42:20,210
Everything he wanted.
I mean, did he even know
what that was?
804
00:42:25,120 --> 00:42:27,220
Coach clayton was in here
talking to pop tate.
805
00:42:27,660 --> 00:42:28,930
Varsity.
806
00:42:30,290 --> 00:42:33,350
Does that make you, what,
mr. Popular football god now?
807
00:42:33,890 --> 00:42:35,290
No.
808
00:42:37,260 --> 00:42:38,360
In fact, i'm kind of terrified
809
00:42:38,370 --> 00:42:40,270
I lost my
best friend tonight.
810
00:42:40,700 --> 00:42:41,930
If you mean betty,
811
00:42:42,700 --> 00:42:44,530
Whatever happened,
just talk to her.
812
00:42:44,540 --> 00:42:47,240
You know,
it'd go a long way.
813
00:42:51,710 --> 00:42:53,340
Would've gone a long way
with me.
814
00:43:24,550 --> 00:43:24,580
I'm not going to ask
what you did
815
00:43:26,050 --> 00:43:27,750
With veronica at cheryl's.
816
00:43:31,190 --> 00:43:33,060
But i'm asking you now,
right now,
817
00:43:33,060 --> 00:43:34,850
If you love me, archie.
818
00:43:37,090 --> 00:43:38,790
Or even like me?
819
00:43:39,390 --> 00:43:40,990
Of course i love you, betty.
820
00:43:44,100 --> 00:43:46,170
But i can't give you
the answer you want.
821
00:43:46,930 --> 00:43:48,260
Why?
822
00:43:51,910 --> 00:43:53,510
You are so perfect.
823
00:43:55,610 --> 00:43:57,780
I've never been
good enough for you.
824
00:43:59,410 --> 00:44:01,140
I'll never be
good enough for you.
825
00:44:20,230 --> 00:44:23,960
And so,
it wasn't one heart
that broke that night.
826
00:44:24,340 --> 00:44:25,710
It was two.
827
00:44:27,880 --> 00:44:30,280
And the night was far
from over.
828
00:44:35,450 --> 00:44:37,850
For the record, i'm not gay.
829
00:44:37,850 --> 00:44:40,710
obviously not, moose.
You're on the football team.
830
00:44:40,720 --> 00:44:43,350
But if you were gay,
what would you like to do?
831
00:44:44,190 --> 00:44:46,050
Everything but kiss.
832
00:44:46,790 --> 00:44:47,920
i love a good closet case.
833
00:44:48,730 --> 00:44:51,630
So, let's start with
skinny-dipping
834
00:44:51,630 --> 00:44:53,230
And then see what happens?
835
00:44:53,230 --> 00:44:56,400
Dude, are you okay?
836
00:45:12,950 --> 00:45:14,380
Oh, my god, it's jason.
837
00:45:14,720 --> 00:45:16,150
He was shot.
838
00:45:17,860 --> 00:45:21,600
By morning,
everyone would be
talking, texting,
839
00:45:21,600 --> 00:45:23,460
And posting about it.
840
00:45:23,460 --> 00:45:25,430
We'd all be feeling it.
841
00:45:26,570 --> 00:45:30,210
That the world around us
had changed,
maybe forever.
842
00:45:31,310 --> 00:45:34,110
That riverdale wasn't
the same town
as before.
843
00:45:35,110 --> 00:45:38,220
That it was a town
of shadows and secrets now.
844
00:45:39,110 --> 00:45:41,810
On monday,
the autopsy on jason's body
845
00:45:41,820 --> 00:45:43,020
Would take place.
846
00:45:44,020 --> 00:45:47,390
And on tuesday,
halfway through fifth period,
847
00:45:48,120 --> 00:45:50,050
The first arrest
would be made.
848
00:46:00,051 --> 00:46:03,301
