Effective immediately, Southside
High School is shut down!

He's snapping up properties

Now, Archie, we come first.
19
00:00:45,959 --> 00:00:48,326
If it's the only way I
can get Chic to open up...
20
00:00:48,328 --> 00:00:49,724

21
00:00:49,727 --> 00:00:51,760
When you wouldn't
submit to the DNA test,
22
00:00:51,763 --> 00:00:54,465
I found some of your dental
floss, and sent it to the lab.
23
00:00:54,468 --> 00:00:56,787
You're not who you say you are, Chic.
24
00:00:58,904 --> 00:01:00,666
[JUGHEAD] One sheet of paper.
25
00:01:00,669 --> 00:01:02,507

27
00:01:05,559 --> 00:01:10,381
That she let a dangerous
stranger into her house.
28
00:01:11,966 --> 00:01:14,420
This is why you didn't want
to take the DNA test, isn't it?
29
00:01:14,423 --> 00:01:16,290
Because you knew what the
results were gonna say.
30
00:01:16,292 --> 00:01:18,158
That you had no Blossom blood!
31
00:01:18,161 --> 00:01:20,625
Of course I don't. I'm not a
Blossom. I don't even know them.
32
00:01:20,627 --> 00:01:23,737
Blossom blood is Cooper blood, Chic.
33
00:01:23,740 --> 00:01:27,675
My dad was a Blossom which means
you would have tested positively
34
00:01:27,678 --> 00:01:31,480
for Blossom DNA, but you didn't,
because you're an impostor!
35
00:01:31,483 --> 00:01:32,763

36
00:01:32,766 --> 00:01:34,258
Betty, listen.
37
00:01:34,261 --> 00:01:39,091
The truth is Chic's DNA doesn't match
38
00:01:39,094 --> 00:01:41,345
because Hal isn't his father.
39
00:01:42,382 --> 00:01:44,849
But I am your mother, you understand me?
40
00:01:44,851 --> 00:01:46,551
Hang on, what?
41
00:01:47,352 --> 00:01:49,986
What? Then who is Chic's father?
42
00:01:49,989 --> 00:01:52,013
Chic's my son!
43
00:01:52,016 --> 00:01:55,092
And whoever the father is, is
not gonna be a part of our lives.
44
00:01:55,094 --> 00:01:56,705

why would you, Hermione Lodge,
run for Mayor of Riverdale?
50
00:02:19,686 --> 00:02:21,986
Every year, our population decreases.

More and more businesses
close. We're at a deficit.

We need to change that
equation before it's too late.
53
00:02:27,694 --> 00:02:30,461
That is why Lodge

for Riverdale, but Mr. and Mrs. Lodge
really have thought this through.
92

00:08:39,305 --> 00:08:42,205
And right now, we're
telling you again...
174
00:08:42,207 --> 00:08:46,009
- Keep your head in the sand.
- Before it gets cut off.
175
00:08:47,446 --> 00:08:50,847
We need you to be our
good, obedient little girl.
176
00:08:51,716 --> 00:08:53,216
You can do that, right?
177
00:08:57,222 --> 00:09:01,157
Friends, I have an exciting
announcement to make.
178
00:09:01,159 --> 00:09:03,760
I'm running for Student
Council President
179
00:09:03,762 --> 00:09:06,396
against Reggie "The
Misogynist" Mantle.
180
00:09:06,398 --> 00:09:08,231
[GRUNTS] You've got to be kidding me.
181
00:09:08,233 --> 00:09:11,367
If yesterday's dramatic
events taught me anything,
182
00:09:11,369 --> 00:09:14,170
it's that Veronica
Lodge is not a victim.
183
00:09:14,173 --> 00:09:16,554
Nor will she ever
allow herself to be one.
184
00:09:16,557 --> 00:09:18,257
Your parents are taking over Riverdale
185
00:09:18,260 --> 00:09:20,627
and now you want to take over
our school? So what is this?
186
00:09:20,630 --> 00:09:22,296
Part of Mommy and Daddy's evil bidding?
187
00:09:22,299 --> 00:09:24,867
Jug, I get that you're in a bad
mood because you haven't eaten in...
188
00:09:24,869 --> 00:09:28,251
Actually, Jughead, my parents
think I should avoid the spotlight.
189
00:09:28,253 --> 00:09:31,001
- Really?
- But I was born for elected office.
190
00:09:31,004 --> 00:09:34,290
V, if you want to be
President, you've got our vote.
191
00:09:34,293 --> 00:09:36,160
Yeah, Team Ronnie all the way.
192
00:09:36,163 --> 00:09:39,714
B? As the Thelma to my Louise,
193
00:09:39,717 --> 00:09:42,451
I can't imagine doing
this with anyone else.
194
00:09:43,602 --> 00:09:45,301
Will you be my running mate?
195
00:09:47,372 --> 00:09:50,940
Of course, V. I'd be honored.
196
00:09:50,942 --> 00:09:54,227
Amaze! B and V!
197
00:09:54,230 --> 00:09:56,479
Now, that's a team you can believe in.
198
00:09:57,949 --> 00:10:03,453
[DANCE MUSIC PLAYING]
199
00:10:20,872 --> 00:10:24,157
Well, I doubt there's any way
you amateurs are gonna top that.
200
00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:26,274
So practice is over, Vixens.
201
00:10:26,277 --> 00:10:29,392
Inner circle Vixens, hang
back. You know who you are.
202
00:10:29,395 --> 00:10:33,850
In honor of Toni joining our
squad, I think we should celebrate
203
00:10:33,853 --> 00:10:35,952
with a mandatory slumber
party at Thistlehouse.
204
00:10:35,954 --> 00:10:37,787
Fancy dressing gowns are appreciated.
205
00:10:37,789 --> 00:10:40,259
You've all seen The Beguiled, right?
206
00:10:40,262 --> 00:10:42,859
Dinner at 8:00. Parlor games to follow.
207
00:10:45,130 --> 00:10:47,107
And there's nothing I can
say to change your mind?
208
00:10:47,110 --> 00:10:49,677
'Fraid not. I just want to get
out of this thing, Hermione.
209
00:10:49,680 --> 00:10:51,467
As quickly, cleanly as I can.
210
00:10:51,469 --> 00:10:53,736
You go about your
business, I go about mine.
211
00:10:55,807 --> 00:10:57,140
I understand.
212
00:10:58,510 --> 00:11:01,102
And I will talk to Hiram.
213
00:11:01,105 --> 00:11:03,712
Of course, you know we'll need
to get our lawyers involved.
214
00:11:03,715 --> 00:11:07,050
Yeah, yeah. I kind of figured that.
215
00:11:07,053 --> 00:11:10,288
What can you tell me about
Jughead's hunger strike?
216
00:11:11,356 --> 00:11:12,822
Yes, I heard about that.
217
00:11:13,825 --> 00:11:16,433
Jughead loves a political crusade
218
00:11:16,436 --> 00:11:17,994
almost as much as he does a burger.
219
00:11:17,996 --> 00:11:20,129
From the contact we've had,
your friend seems to live
220
00:11:20,131 --> 00:11:22,852
in a fantasy world of
ideals and theoreticals.
221
00:11:22,855 --> 00:11:25,468
What if Southside High were to reopen?
222
00:11:26,871 --> 00:11:29,138
I, on the otheothand,
live in the real world.
223
00:11:29,141 --> 00:11:31,641
I see what needs to be done and I do it.
224
00:11:31,644 --> 00:11:33,743
I think you do too, Archie.
225
00:11:35,347 --> 00:11:38,715
I'm accelerating our timeline on
Southside High and I was wondering
226
00:11:38,717 --> 00:11:42,218
if you could send Jughead a message.
227
00:11:43,447 --> 00:11:45,741
Yeah, whatever you need,
Mr. Lodge, but...
228
00:11:45,744 --> 00:11:46,941
But why you?
229
00:11:46,944 --> 00:11:50,773
Well, I think it'll soften the blow
to hear it coming from a friend.
230
00:11:50,776 --> 00:11:54,686
Hiram's trying to tear down Southside
High by the end of this week?
231
00:11:54,689 --> 00:11:57,990
He's supposed to give the neighborhood
at least a six weeks' notice.
232
00:11:57,993 --> 00:12:00,660
Who'd he pay off? Can I have
another water, please, Pop?
233
00:12:00,663 --> 00:12:02,063
Thank you.
234
00:12:02,807 --> 00:12:05,108
Jug, my dad got shot,
235
00:12:05,111 --> 00:12:08,578
right here in Pops, because Riverdale
was sliding off the deep end.
236
00:12:08,580 --> 00:12:11,948
And if Mr. Lodge's
plan can shore things up
237
00:12:11,950 --> 00:12:15,285
and help make Riverdale more
secure for us and our families,
238
00:12:15,287 --> 00:12:17,153
then I think that's a
good thing in my book.
239
00:12:17,155 --> 00:12:18,716
Besides, why do you care so much?
240
00:12:18,719 --> 00:12:21,353
You were only at Southside
High for like, four days!
241
00:12:21,362 --> 00:12:25,630
You remember that I was
raised on the Southside, right?
242
00:12:25,633 --> 00:12:28,464
My mom, my dad, Jellybean...
243
00:12:28,466 --> 00:12:31,668
That neighborhood is the last
tangible piece I have of them
244
00:12:31,670 --> 00:12:34,437
until your dad comes
in with his bulldozers.
245
00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:38,730
My dad's actually
against this whole thing.
246
00:12:38,733 --> 00:12:41,915
He's pulling out of his
deal with the Lodges over it.
247
00:12:41,918 --> 00:12:44,580
You're choosing Hiram's side over his.
248
00:12:44,597 --> 00:12:48,321
We see things differently,
okay? And it makes me sick.
249
00:12:48,324 --> 00:12:51,254
Kind of like when you and
your best friend are two trains
250
00:12:51,256 --> 00:12:54,626
running on the same track
in opposite directions,
251
00:12:54,629 --> 00:12:56,559
destined to collide?
252
00:13:08,039 --> 00:13:09,939
Inner circle, Cousin Betty?
253
00:13:09,941 --> 00:13:13,446
I didn't just bring you to
Thistlehouse for a girls' slumber party.
254
00:13:13,449 --> 00:13:16,679
The truth is I'm terrified
of being alone here.
255
00:13:16,682 --> 00:13:18,996
There's a stranger in this house.
256
00:13:18,999 --> 00:13:21,316
My uncle Claudius,
he's as mad as the sea,
257
00:13:21,319 --> 00:13:23,886
and ever since he blew in, I
feel like I'm in mortal peril.
258
00:13:23,888 --> 00:13:26,522
Wait, I'm confused. Is this
real or are we playing a game?
259
00:13:26,524 --> 00:13:28,558
All too real, TT.
260
00:13:28,560 --> 00:13:30,893
I feel like they're plotting
against me and Nana Rose.

herbs in the conservatory.
262
00:13:34,166 --> 00:13:37,400

to eat for fear of being poisoned.

you're not imagining things?
264

Well, if she is, Josie,
then maybe I am too.

every corner, my house feels...
267
00:13:54,394 --> 00:13:57,061
Dangerous. Deadly.
268
00:13:58,623 --> 00:14:00,656
I sympathize.
269
00:14:17,008 --> 00:14:18,541
Full disclosure...
270
00:14:23,248 --> 00:14:28,501
I didn't want to invite
all the girls tonight.
271
00:14:28,504 --> 00:14:32,688
But I knew my hideous mother would
never allow me to invite just you.
272
00:14:34,233 --> 00:14:35,599
Which is...
273
00:14:37,262 --> 00:14:38,928

my nana down the stairs.

Your pal Hiram Lodge called.

00:39:49,435 --> 00:39:51,588
He's letting your dad
out of his contract.

your mom for a second.

more unfinished business.
