1
00:00:08,341 --> 00:00:11,261
-[narrator] Previously on Riverdale:
-I just have to ask.

2
00:00:11,344 --> 00:00:13,513
When you were pretending to be with Betty,

3
00:00:13,596 --> 00:00:15,890
you didn't feel anything, did you?

4
00:00:15,974 --> 00:00:17,892
[Archie]
I can't stop thinking about you, Betty.

5
00:00:17,976 --> 00:00:20,020
I've tried, but it's impossible.

6
00:00:20,103 --> 00:00:23,398
I wanted to share something.
A song I wrote for you.

7
00:00:23,481 --> 00:00:26,943
Stop. Whatever this is, it's just over.

8
00:00:27,986 --> 00:00:30,989
Hey, Mom? I'm ready to get serious
about the Naval Academy.

9
00:00:31,072 --> 00:00:32,782
[Veronica] He's dying, Archie.

10
00:00:32,866 --> 00:00:34,784
And I don't know what to do.

11
00:00:36,327 --> 00:00:37,162
[Betty] What is this?

12
00:00:37,245 --> 00:00:40,206
[Jughead] Footage of our houses
being watched from across the street.

13
00:00:40,290 --> 00:00:43,042
For hours upon hours.

14
00:00:43,126 --> 00:00:45,962
-[FP] Maybe it's a prank.
-[Jughead] This is an escalation.

15
00:00:46,045 --> 00:00:47,213
It's a warning.

16
00:00:47,797 --> 00:00:50,425
Or a promise of violence to come.

17
00:00:50,508 --> 00:00:51,926
This was on our doorstep.

18
00:00:52,010 --> 00:00:54,554
-Maybe it's a copycat?
-[Jughead] I've seen this place before.

19
00:00:56,014 --> 00:00:57,015
[Jughead] Oh, my God.

20
00:00:57,098 --> 00:00:59,059
Are they stabbing Mr. Honey?

21
00:01:09,277 --> 00:01:10,945
Hey, did you reach out to Mr. Honey?

22
00:01:11,029 --> 00:01:13,323
We did. He's fine.
No one's tried to kill him.

23
00:01:13,406 --> 00:01:15,950
-Well, for now at least.
-In the meantime,

24
00:01:16,534 --> 00:01:19,788
-mind breaking this down for me?
-It's the auteur again.

25
00:01:19,871 --> 00:01:24,375
They've moved on from recreating a killing
to reenacting a metaphoric murder.

26
00:01:24,459 --> 00:01:26,920
Us and friends getting Mr. Honey fired.

27
00:01:27,003 --> 00:01:28,379
And there is one other thing:

28
00:01:28,463 --> 00:01:30,673
I wrote a story
called "Killing Mr. Honey,"

29
00:01:30,757 --> 00:01:33,676
within which was a fictionalized version
of this cabin.

30
00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:36,304
-I don't think that's a coincidence.
-All right. Uh...

31
00:01:37,096 --> 00:01:38,932
Who else knew about that story?

32
00:01:39,015 --> 00:01:41,184
-Just us. Me and Betty.
-Yeah.

33
00:01:41,267 --> 00:01:42,852
Unless I'm being watched or hacked.

34
00:01:43,603 --> 00:01:45,021
This is interesting.

35
00:01:46,147 --> 00:01:49,400
-[Charles] It's four ticket stubs.
-[Betty] For, like, the movie theater?

36
00:01:49,484 --> 00:01:51,319
Admission to watch the tapes?

37
00:01:51,402 --> 00:01:53,738
Stubs have the letters B and V on them.

38
00:01:54,948 --> 00:01:58,326
-What the hell? Like Betty and Veronica?
-No. Blue Velvet.

39
00:01:58,701 --> 00:02:00,078
Like Blue Velvet Video.

40
00:02:00,161 --> 00:02:03,039
The place that all roads
keep coming back to.

41
00:02:03,123 --> 00:02:06,000
That video store
and that crypt keeper, David.

42
00:02:06,084 --> 00:02:08,962
If he's not the auteur,
he's connected somehow.

43
00:02:09,045 --> 00:02:10,839
-Or at least a fan.
-We'll bring him in.

44
00:02:11,506 --> 00:02:14,217
I'll call you in the morning.
Get some rest.

45
00:02:15,093 --> 00:02:15,927
Okay. Good night.

46
00:02:22,142 --> 00:02:23,143
[door opens]

47
00:02:23,685 --> 00:02:25,145
Early morning run, Archiekins?

48
00:02:25,228 --> 00:02:27,272
Physical for the Naval Academy this week.

49
00:02:27,355 --> 00:02:29,691
I find it hard to believe
they wouldn't be impressed

50
00:02:29,774 --> 00:02:31,442
by my teenage Thor.

51
00:02:31,526 --> 00:02:33,736
You could always serve
your country in the USO.

52
00:02:33,820 --> 00:02:36,447
-What are you talking about?
-Oh, nothing.

53
00:02:38,700 --> 00:02:40,493
Just this new song you've written.

54
00:02:41,995 --> 00:02:43,580
-Oh.
-Mm-hm.

55
00:02:44,247 --> 00:02:47,458
That is... nothing.
Just something I'm kicking around.

56
00:02:48,626 --> 00:02:49,752
Play it for me?

57
00:02:51,129 --> 00:02:53,464
No. Ronnie. I stink.

58
00:02:53,548 --> 00:02:55,466
And so does this song. Trust me.

59
00:02:56,718 --> 00:03:00,430
Okay. I do like the idea
of you getting back into music though.

60
00:03:01,472 --> 00:03:03,933
Right now my focus is on impressing
the commandant.

61
00:03:04,017 --> 00:03:07,395
And you will. Because I'll be there
to make sure of it.

62
00:03:09,188 --> 00:03:11,190
[cell phone buzzes]

63
00:03:13,443 --> 00:03:15,945
It's Daddy.
He wants me home for breakfast.

64
00:03:16,029 --> 00:03:17,071
That's too bad.

65
00:03:19,449 --> 00:03:22,160
I was gonna ask you if you wanted
to join me in the shower.

66
00:03:41,512 --> 00:03:44,390
Hey. There you are. Come, sit. Join us.

67
00:03:45,016 --> 00:03:46,267
I have news.

68
00:03:46,351 --> 00:03:49,020
Please don't tell me
you and Mom are chaperoning prom.

69
00:03:49,103 --> 00:03:50,396
We are. But no.

70
00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:54,984
My news is, according to my doctor,
my core strength is building back up.

71
00:03:55,068 --> 00:03:59,239
In fact, my grip is almost as strong
as it was pre-diagnosis.

72
00:03:59,322 --> 00:04:01,532
-What are you saying?
-I'm beating it.

73
00:04:02,575 --> 00:04:05,536
-I'm beating this damn disease.
-That's incredible.

74
00:04:05,620 --> 00:04:08,206
It is, assuming it's true.

75
00:04:09,415 --> 00:04:11,334
Forgive me if I call your doctor

76
00:04:11,417 --> 00:04:13,878
to confirm that this isn't another one
of your stories.

77
00:04:13,962 --> 00:04:14,796
Fine.

78
00:04:15,213 --> 00:04:18,174
-[phone dialing]
-Does he know why you're bouncing back?

79
00:04:18,925 --> 00:04:22,303
I've been trying
this new workout regimen that's helping.

80
00:04:22,387 --> 00:04:24,389
[intense music playing]

81
00:04:26,474 --> 00:04:28,476
[siren wailing in distance]

82
00:04:33,815 --> 00:04:35,942
Thank you, doctor. TTFN.

83
00:04:38,278 --> 00:04:40,697
Well, it seems to be true.

84
00:04:41,572 --> 00:04:43,199
This calls for a celebration.

85
00:04:45,201 --> 00:04:46,035
Cheers.

86
00:04:46,995 --> 00:04:48,496
[all speak in Spanish]

87
00:04:49,706 --> 00:04:51,124
[inaudible dialogue]

88
00:04:51,207 --> 00:04:55,128
Ah. He's not talking.
Unless you count movie quotes.

89
00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:58,631
What did he say about his store's initials
on those tickets?

90
00:04:58,715 --> 00:05:01,384
-Never seen them before in his life.
-[scoffs] Right.

91
00:05:02,051 --> 00:05:04,929
I don't know if this creep is responsible
for making the videos,

92
00:05:05,013 --> 00:05:08,558
but I can't shake the feeling
that he is profiting off them.

93
00:05:08,641 --> 00:05:09,517
Same.

94
00:05:10,893 --> 00:05:13,730
-Where's your partner-in-crime?
-Following up on another lead.

95
00:05:13,813 --> 00:05:17,317
What exactly are you accusing me of,
young lady?

96
00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:19,777
I'm not accusing. I'm asking.

97
00:05:19,861 --> 00:05:22,989
If I made a videotape of you
and your classmates

98
00:05:23,072 --> 00:05:24,991
murdering poor Mr. Honey?

99
00:05:25,074 --> 00:05:27,160
Things haven't changed much, I see.

100
00:05:28,077 --> 00:05:30,288
-Mr. Weatherbee, you're back.
-Indeed.

101
00:05:30,371 --> 00:05:32,874
In time for senior prom and graduation.

102
00:05:34,125 --> 00:05:36,252
How--? How are you?

103
00:05:37,670 --> 00:05:40,465
I told Edgar I wasn't the mole.
He cut it off.

104
00:05:40,548 --> 00:05:43,551
I make it through most nights
without waking up screaming.

105
00:05:49,348 --> 00:05:52,935
Two businesses? Another besides
this community center?

106
00:05:53,019 --> 00:05:54,228
Yes, commandant.

107
00:05:54,312 --> 00:05:57,398
Archie is also the owner
of Andrews Construction,

108
00:05:57,482 --> 00:06:00,485
a business he inherited
after his father's passing.

109
00:06:01,694 --> 00:06:06,074
Well, I have to say,
I am truly impressed by you, Mr. Andrews.

110
00:06:06,574 --> 00:06:07,867
-Thank you.
-However,

111
00:06:07,950 --> 00:06:10,369
when it seemed like
you were no longer interested,

112
00:06:10,453 --> 00:06:12,747
I started looking at other candidates.

113
00:06:13,664 --> 00:06:15,583
Someone else you're considering?

114
00:06:15,666 --> 00:06:17,543
Yes, a young man from Queens,

115
00:06:17,627 --> 00:06:20,379
who's been training rigorously
for the Academy.

116
00:06:20,463 --> 00:06:22,465
He's also a boxer like I was.

117
00:06:23,216 --> 00:06:26,594
As you know, we have
a proud boxing tradition in the Navy.

118
00:06:26,677 --> 00:06:29,180
I'm looking for a champion.

119
00:06:29,263 --> 00:06:33,976
Crazy idea: If you're considering Archie
and someone else,

120
00:06:34,435 --> 00:06:36,354
how about deciding
with an exhibition bout?

121
00:06:36,437 --> 00:06:38,147
Right here at the El Royale.

122
00:06:38,898 --> 00:06:43,194
I do feel that Archie and this young man
are otherwise evenly matched.

123
00:06:44,237 --> 00:06:47,240
Okay. I'll have my office reach out
to KO Kelly,

124
00:06:47,323 --> 00:06:50,118
see how quickly
he can hop a train to Riverdale.

125
00:06:50,201 --> 00:06:52,995
Wait a minute.
KO Kelly is your other candidate?

126
00:06:53,079 --> 00:06:54,497
Yes, why? You know him?

127
00:06:54,580 --> 00:06:59,252
Um... Yes. He's only dating
one of my BFFs, Katy Keene.

128
00:07:04,757 --> 00:07:06,551
Well, Miss Bell was a bust.

129
00:07:07,051 --> 00:07:10,346
Charles isn't having much luck
with the video store's owner either.

130
00:07:10,430 --> 00:07:12,765
I do have an idea
of someone we could talk to

131
00:07:12,849 --> 00:07:14,642
who might be able to give us dirt.

132
00:07:14,725 --> 00:07:17,979
The only caveat being
he's tried to kill me.

133
00:07:18,855 --> 00:07:20,773
[school bell rings]

134
00:07:21,649 --> 00:07:24,318
Our momentous day is almost
upon us, Tee-Tee.

135
00:07:25,403 --> 00:07:28,406
Can I ask, why do you wanna be
prom queen so badly?

136
00:07:28,489 --> 00:07:30,366
"Want," Tee-Tee?

137
00:07:30,450 --> 00:07:33,161
Does Elizabeth want to be
the queen of England?

138
00:07:33,244 --> 00:07:36,247
A better question is,
why don't you wanna be prom queen?

139
00:07:36,330 --> 00:07:37,665
Listen.

140
00:07:37,748 --> 00:07:40,918
If it's important to you,
it's important to me.

141
00:07:41,002 --> 00:07:44,547
But the only royalty I care about
is being Serpent Queen.

142
00:07:44,630 --> 00:07:46,215
Which I will be. Again.

143
00:07:46,799 --> 00:07:49,760
-You'll see.
-Hey, Cheryl. Toni.

144
00:07:49,844 --> 00:07:52,305
Is this where I sign up
to run for prom person?

145
00:07:52,388 --> 00:07:54,807
Oh, no, Kev.
I don't think you wanna do that.

146
00:07:54,891 --> 00:07:56,225
No, I don't, actually.

147
00:07:56,309 --> 00:07:59,312
But Fangs has always wanted
to be prom king, so...

148
00:07:59,395 --> 00:08:01,647
-here we are.
-I hate to rain on Fangs's parade,

149
00:08:01,731 --> 00:08:04,108
but Toni and I are campaigning
to be co-queens,

150
00:08:04,192 --> 00:08:06,235
and it has been my destiny since birth.

151
00:08:06,319 --> 00:08:10,114
I have spent my entire life
fantasizing about being prom queen.

152
00:08:10,198 --> 00:08:12,492
A part of that is I exist in a world

153
00:08:12,575 --> 00:08:16,871
where everyone wants me to be prom queen
and certainly not themselves.

154
00:08:18,372 --> 00:08:19,332
Make sense?

155
00:08:20,541 --> 00:08:21,542
Yeah. Yeah.

156
00:08:22,710 --> 00:08:25,630
Thank you. As my friend,
I knew you'd understand.

157
00:08:37,850 --> 00:08:39,393
Whatever happens with your fight,

158
00:08:39,477 --> 00:08:42,647
I've booked us the presidential suite
at the Five Seasons for our...

159
00:08:43,314 --> 00:08:45,149
après-prom rendezvous.

160
00:08:45,233 --> 00:08:50,947
It'll be just you, me,
a bathtub full of rose petals, and...

161
00:08:51,030 --> 00:08:52,865
-[bell jingles]
-KO Kelly!

162
00:08:52,949 --> 00:08:54,492
Ronnie. [chuckles]

163
00:08:54,575 --> 00:08:55,993
-Hi.
-Hey.

164
00:08:56,786 --> 00:09:00,373
Welcome to Riverdale.
KO, this is Archie Andrews.

165
00:09:00,456 --> 00:09:02,583
-Archie, this is KO Kelly.
-Ah.

166
00:09:03,084 --> 00:09:04,669
So, you're my competition.

167
00:09:05,211 --> 00:09:08,089
No offense, but are we
in the same weight class?

168
00:09:09,549 --> 00:09:12,176
-I'm bigger than I look, bro.
-Boys, boys.

169
00:09:12,260 --> 00:09:14,303
Save the sparring for the ring.

170
00:09:14,387 --> 00:09:16,806
I promised Katy I'd show KO a good time.

171
00:09:16,889 --> 00:09:20,476
Yeah, I'm down. But first,
know where I can drop my stuff?

172
00:09:20,560 --> 00:09:23,771
As a matter of fact, I do.
Archie has graciously agreed

173
00:09:23,854 --> 00:09:26,857
to have you stay with him
and train at his gym.

174

-I'm heading there now if you need a ride.
-All right. Play nice.

175
00:09:33,864 --> 00:09:37,535
[Bret] Well, well, well...
Never thought I'd see you two again.

176
00:09:37,618 --> 00:09:39,036
What brings you around?

177
00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:43,374
Look, Bret. We know you sold
your sex tapes to Blue Velvet Video.

178
00:09:43,457 --> 00:09:47,461
The owner, David, keeps coming up
in an investigation we're conducting,

179
00:09:47,545 --> 00:09:50,172
but he's not talking to us.
We need a way in.

180
00:09:50,923 --> 00:09:52,216
We need leverage.

181
00:09:53,676 --> 00:09:57,722
Yeah. I know David.
But if he's not talking, why should I?

182
00:09:58,806 --> 00:10:02,560
See, I have a friend in there with you.
His name is War Baby.

183
00:10:03,561 --> 00:10:06,564
Mm-hm. Know who he hates more than anyone?

184

185

What's the investigation?

186
00:10:16,741 --> 00:10:19,535
Someone is making videos of us
and our friends

187
00:10:19,619 --> 00:10:22,496
doing disturbing, violent things.

188
00:10:22,580 --> 00:10:25,249
We think this David is connected to them.

189
00:10:25,333 --> 00:10:28,502
Did he mention or host screenings
with the videos in stock?

190
00:10:28,586 --> 00:10:32,757
Some of David's customers prefer
shared experiences.

191
00:10:33,758 --> 00:10:37,428
Underground, immersive,
red-band screenings.

192
00:10:37,511 --> 00:10:39,847
If we wanted to attend one,
what would we do?

193
00:10:39,930 --> 00:10:41,098
Be on a list.

194
00:10:41,849 --> 00:10:43,059
Or you'd have to...

195
00:10:44,060 --> 00:10:46,937
prove to David that you're the real deal.

196
00:10:48,773 --> 00:10:49,857
Bring him a tape.

197
00:10:50,399 --> 00:10:53,319
Something to make him sit up
and take notice.

198
00:10:54,070 --> 00:10:55,154
Say, a snuff film.

-He's gonna cream me tomorrow.
-Well...

Honestly, a little psychological warfare
might be your best bet.

205

When it comes to brute power,
we'll see who's stronger:

227

The Heavyweight Heartbreaker
or the Red Hope.

228
00:12:19,113 --> 00:12:20,114

233
00:12:31,667 --> 00:12:34,170
This is Riverdale,
but where do we get a snuff film

234
00:12:34,253 --> 00:12:36,839
in which someone gets murdered on-screen?

235
00:12:36,922 --> 00:12:38,716
Those are urban legends, I thought.

236
00:12:38,799 --> 00:12:42,636
Not according to Nicolas Cage movies.
I mean, we can make one.

237

-A snuff film?
-Well, a facsimile of one.

No. I won't help you.

No, no, Cheryl.
It's not an actual snuff film.

244
00:13:06,035 --> 00:13:07,077
It's an act.

with Jason and your father.

Boy promises to make girl a star and...

252
00:13:27,348 --> 00:13:29,183
then the boy kills the girl.

Cheryl isn't what you think.

344
00:18:40,661 --> 00:18:44,706
That family, over the decades,
has taken everything from us.

345
00:18:44,790 --> 00:18:47,709
-And from our people.
-That's ancient history.

346
00:18:47,793 --> 00:18:50,629
I promise you,
Cheryl is nothing like her family.

347
00:18:50,712 --> 00:18:55,467
If that's true, then why have you kept her
hidden like a dirty secret?

348
00:18:56,218 --> 00:18:57,719
Because you know it's wrong--

349
00:18:57,803 --> 00:19:00,305
No, it's because I knew
this would be your reaction.

350
00:19:00,389 --> 00:19:02,307
About this? Yes.

351
00:19:02,891 --> 00:19:05,269
I will not allow you to date a Blossom.

352
00:19:10,941 --> 00:19:13,986
You look familiar to me. Both of you do.

353
00:19:14,695 --> 00:19:16,363
You come in here before?

354
00:19:16,446 --> 00:19:18,115
-Nope. Never. Shockingly.
-[Betty] Mm-mm.

355
00:19:18,198 --> 00:19:21,827
A classmate of mine from prep school
said that you buy videos.

356
00:19:22,452 --> 00:19:24,705
Underground videos.

357
00:19:24,788 --> 00:19:27,416
My friend and I saw this video
at a party last weekend--

358
00:19:27,499 --> 00:19:28,584
And we boosted it.

359
00:19:29,042 --> 00:19:31,420
It's of a girl getting killed. For real.

360
00:19:32,045 --> 00:19:33,255
A snuff film.

361
00:19:34,923 --> 00:19:36,175
Let me take a look.

362
00:19:39,178 --> 00:19:41,180
[whimpering over TV]

363
00:19:43,098 --> 00:19:44,975
[Cheryl screaming over TV]

364
00:19:45,726 --> 00:19:47,728
[Reggie grunting over TV]

365
00:19:49,104 --> 00:19:50,898
-Sorry, kids.
-[videotape stops]

366
00:19:50,981 --> 00:19:54,735
You were conned.
Or you're trying to con me.

367
00:19:55,277 --> 00:19:57,029
But this snuff is a fake.

368
00:19:57,112 --> 00:19:59,781
We were worried
that this tape might not be authentic,

369
00:19:59,865 --> 00:20:04,161
so I brought a backup
that I know for a fact is the real deal.

370
00:20:04,703 --> 00:20:06,371
[suspenseful music playing]

371
00:20:10,876 --> 00:20:13,295
[woman] I'm making this movie
so we never forget

372
00:20:13,378 --> 00:20:15,380
what your daddy sacrificed for us.

373
00:20:15,464 --> 00:20:17,424
You do love your daddy, don't you, Harold?

374
00:20:17,507 --> 00:20:19,927
-[young Hal] Yes, Mom.
-What is this?

375
00:20:20,010 --> 00:20:22,095
[woman] Want your daddy
to keep living with us?

376
00:20:22,179 --> 00:20:24,681
-The birth of a serial killer.
-[young Hal] Yes, Mom.

377
00:20:24,765 --> 00:20:28,352
-The Black Hood. As a little boy.
-Is that really him?

378
00:20:29,311 --> 00:20:30,729
-The Black Hood?
-Yeah.

379
00:20:31,480 --> 00:20:33,815
-That's my dad.
-[woman] And what happens to sinners?

380
00:20:33,899 --> 00:20:37,402
-This is insane.
-Could I screen this at a little...

381
00:20:38,028 --> 00:20:41,198
film festival-slash-rave I'm organizing?

382
00:20:41,281 --> 00:20:43,367
...they're gonna ask
who killed his family.

383
00:20:43,450 --> 00:20:46,453
Yeah. As long as we're invited
to the screening.

384
00:20:46,536 --> 00:20:48,789
...but not Daddy,
because we don't want Daddy

385
00:20:48,872 --> 00:20:51,708
-to be taken away from us, do we?
-[young Hal] No.

386
00:20:51,792 --> 00:20:54,294
[woman] But you? You will do better.

387
00:20:54,378 --> 00:20:55,837
You must do better.

388
00:21:03,178 --> 00:21:05,180
[cheers and applause]

389
00:21:08,183 --> 00:21:09,685
Go, Archie!

390
00:21:09,768 --> 00:21:11,061
Archie!

391
00:21:15,148 --> 00:21:16,775
Attaboy. Go get him, Arch.

392
00:21:18,151 --> 00:21:20,028
[intense music playing]

393
00:21:32,374 --> 00:21:34,584
Welcome to the Film Society, girlie.

394
00:21:35,961 --> 00:21:39,423
We got your daddy's movie
playing in Room 317.

395
00:21:43,093 --> 00:21:45,095
[dance music playing over speakers]

396
00:21:47,973 --> 00:21:49,391
-Box.
-[bell dings]

397
00:21:55,022 --> 00:21:56,690
Welcome to the Film Society.

398
00:21:56,773 --> 00:22:00,319
-My dad's playing in Room 317, apparently.
-Awesome.

399
00:22:17,753 --> 00:22:19,838
So, what are we supposed
to be looking for?

400
00:22:22,007 --> 00:22:24,384
See if any of the auteur's movies
are playing.

401
00:22:24,468 --> 00:22:26,344
Or if any of these people are fans.

402
00:22:36,646 --> 00:22:38,982
Maybe just get a lay of the land first.

403
00:22:43,153 --> 00:22:45,655
[laughing over speakers]

404
00:22:53,371 --> 00:22:54,539
Oh!

405
00:23:06,927 --> 00:23:11,264
[woman] ...saw kill his family,
make sure he doesn't say Daddy.

406
00:23:11,348 --> 00:23:13,850
Can you do that, Harold? Convince him?

407
00:23:13,934 --> 00:23:18,355
You're a good boy, Hal.
Your father let him escape. But you?

408
00:23:19,064 --> 00:23:22,192
You will do better. You must do better.

409
00:23:22,275 --> 00:23:23,443
-[Jughead] Betty.
-Yeah.

410
00:23:24,277 --> 00:23:25,445
[bell dings]

411
00:23:26,863 --> 00:23:28,740

[whimpers]

413
00:23:34,746 --> 00:23:36,623
-[bell dings]
-Box.

414
00:23:45,423 --> 00:23:48,969
[man] Psychosis is the loss of contact
with external reality,

415
00:23:49,636 --> 00:23:51,972
a severe mental disorder
in which thoughts...

416
00:23:52,055 --> 00:23:55,600
-These are all the auteur's films.
-Then he's gotta be in here.

417
00:23:57,269 --> 00:23:59,479
[woman screaming over speakers]

418
00:24:01,773 --> 00:24:03,608
Do you know who the director of this is?

419
00:24:06,319 --> 00:24:07,863
Do you know who the director--?

420
00:24:09,447 --> 00:24:10,282
You the director?

421
00:24:11,158 --> 00:24:13,827
-[Betty] Hey!
-Oh, no. It's just I'm such a big fan.

422
00:24:13,910 --> 00:24:17,998
-See if I can get an autograph.
-Ponytail Playmate. Hotter in person.

423
00:24:25,630 --> 00:24:27,966
Hey! Jug, we're leaving. We're leaving.

424
00:24:28,508 --> 00:24:29,384
Go, go, go.

425
00:24:31,219 --> 00:24:32,345
[bell dings]

426
00:24:35,056 --> 00:24:36,808
[Keller] Attaboy. Give me two big breaths.

427
00:24:40,353 --> 00:24:41,188
Jug, look.

428
00:24:43,315 --> 00:24:46,234
Oh, that's him. That's gotta be him.

429
00:24:56,828 --> 00:24:57,662
Come on, Arch!

430
00:25:06,213 --> 00:25:07,464
-[Jughead] Jellybean?
-Jughead?

431
00:25:09,132 --> 00:25:11,635
Betty, go. Let me stay with Jellybean.
Go. After him.

432
00:25:14,304 --> 00:25:16,431
-What are you doing here?
-No, why are you?

433
00:25:16,514 --> 00:25:18,516
My friends and I heard there was a party.

434
00:25:19,100 --> 00:25:21,978
-Am I in trouble?
-No. You're not. Let's go.

435
00:25:24,397 --> 00:25:26,024
[bell dinging]

436
00:25:26,107 --> 00:25:27,317
Stop, stop, stop.

437
00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:28,401
Fight's over.

438
00:25:29,778 --> 00:25:31,988
[cheers and applause]

439
00:25:36,993 --> 00:25:41,957
Ladies and gentlemen, the first judge
has scored the fight in favor of KO Kelly.

[scattered applause]

441
00:25:45,961 --> 00:25:49,381
Our second judge has scored the fight
for Archie Andrews.

[cheers and applause]

443
00:25:52,550 --> 00:25:54,552
And our third judge, the commandant...

[suspenseful music playing]

445
00:25:57,597 --> 00:25:59,891
...has scored the fight in favor

446
00:25:59,975 --> 00:26:02,143
of KO Kelly, your winner tonight.

447
00:26:02,227 --> 00:26:04,020

[all murmuring]

449
00:26:16,825 --> 00:26:19,286
You're a hell of a fighter, Archie.
I'll tell you what.

450
00:26:19,828 --> 00:26:24,374
Why don't we stay in touch, and come fall,
when you reapply to the Academy,

451
00:26:24,457 --> 00:26:27,877
-we'll see if we can make it happen.
-No, thanks. I'm good.

452
00:26:27,961 --> 00:26:30,255
Archie. Don't be disrespectful.

453
00:26:30,338 --> 00:26:33,008
Your blood's still boiling.
I understand, son.

454
00:26:34,426 --> 00:26:37,345
I'm not your son.
And I'm not applying again.

455
00:26:46,104 --> 00:26:49,482
-Cheryl, what the hell did you do?
-What the hell indeed.

456
00:26:49,566 --> 00:26:52,319
I thought you didn't want me to meet
your nana because I'm a lesbian.

457
00:26:52,402 --> 00:26:56,489
But, surprise, it's me and my family
she hates with a fiery vengeance.

458
00:26:56,573 --> 00:26:59,075
Admit that your ancestors
were horrible to mine.

459
00:26:59,159 --> 00:27:02,245
Now my nana is begging me
not to go to prom with you.

460
00:27:02,329 --> 00:27:04,622
She says it would dishonor our family.

461
00:27:04,706 --> 00:27:05,707
Look.

462
00:27:06,291 --> 00:27:10,295
I'm truly, truly sorry
I went to see your nana,

463
00:27:11,421 --> 00:27:14,215
but I hope we're still going
to prom together.

464
00:27:14,924 --> 00:27:18,094
I hope that when I'm posing for pictures
in my amazing dress...

465
00:27:18,970 --> 00:27:22,432
that you're there with me,
looking equally undeniable.

466
00:27:28,855 --> 00:27:30,982
How did you even know where to go?

467
00:27:31,066 --> 00:27:35,612
My friend Lauren from soccer,
her older brother heard about a rave.

468
00:27:35,695 --> 00:27:38,448
-From who?
-I don't know. Some e-mail list.

469
00:27:39,491 --> 00:27:42,577
Jug, I swear,
I've never been to a rave before.

470
00:27:42,660 --> 00:27:47,374
Promise me you're not gonna go
to anymore X-rated raves from now on?

471
00:27:47,457 --> 00:27:50,335
Especially if I end up
in the University of Iowa. Okay?

472
00:27:50,418 --> 00:27:52,545
-Yes.
-Do you promise me?

473
00:27:52,629 --> 00:27:54,214
I promise.

474
00:28:12,524 --> 00:28:13,358
Archie.

475
00:28:15,819 --> 00:28:17,487
I'm sorry about the fight.

476
00:28:18,613 --> 00:28:20,365
I wish I hadn't suggested it.

477
00:28:21,324 --> 00:28:23,827
And I know this sucks right now, but...

478
00:28:25,453 --> 00:28:27,956
the Naval Academy wasn't your only option.

479
00:28:28,706 --> 00:28:30,792
-Yeah, it kind of was, Ronnie.
-Hey.

480
00:28:31,918 --> 00:28:33,002
Listen.

481
00:28:34,337 --> 00:28:35,839
Wanna blow off prom?

482
00:28:35,922 --> 00:28:37,507
[tender music playing]

483
00:28:37,590 --> 00:28:40,135
We could do something. Anything you want.

484
00:28:40,218 --> 00:28:41,636
-Just the two of us.
-No.

485
00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:44,305
This will be the last dance
we have with our friends.

486
00:28:45,765 --> 00:28:46,808
Can't miss it.

487
00:28:49,060 --> 00:28:50,311
Are you sure, Archie?

488
00:28:52,147 --> 00:28:53,189
I'm in.

489
00:29:04,075 --> 00:29:06,077
[tender music playing]

490
00:29:07,078 --> 00:29:10,415
I still wanna take a picture of you, dear.

491
00:29:10,498 --> 00:29:12,792
You look like an angel.

492
00:29:12,876 --> 00:29:14,377
Thank you, Nana.

493
00:29:15,295 --> 00:29:18,298
Perhaps your camera will capture
the sublime tragedy of my life.

494
00:29:19,632 --> 00:29:22,677
-Okay.
-Don't start crying yet, Cheryl.

495
00:29:23,470 --> 00:29:25,263
Toni. You came.

496
00:29:27,140 --> 00:29:28,850
Was there ever any doubt?

497
00:29:34,147 --> 00:29:35,273
Ready?

498
00:29:39,402 --> 00:29:40,737
Oh, that's nice.

499
00:29:43,406 --> 00:29:45,950
-[Hiram] Looking sharp, Archie.
-Thank you, sir.

500
00:29:47,410 --> 00:29:49,829
Veronica told me about the Naval Academy.

501
00:29:50,747 --> 00:29:52,499
-Unlucky break.
-It wasn't meant to be.

502
00:29:52,582 --> 00:29:54,000
Well, look. Um...

503
00:29:54,626 --> 00:29:56,920
If you decide to stay in Riverdale,

504
00:29:57,003 --> 00:30:00,757
I'm in need of a deputy mayor
to oversee community outreach.

505
00:30:00,840 --> 00:30:02,759
I think you'd be perfect for it.

506
00:30:06,179 --> 00:30:08,640
Well, Archiekins, what do you think?

507
00:30:09,766 --> 00:30:10,850
Am I dazzling?

508
00:30:11,643 --> 00:30:13,478
-Wow.
-[chuckles]

509
00:30:20,026 --> 00:30:21,903
Okay, you two. Snuggle up for a picture.

510
00:30:21,986 --> 00:30:24,906
This is a memory
you're going to treasure forever.

511
00:30:24,989 --> 00:30:28,701
Smile and say, "Endgame." Three, two, one.

512
00:30:31,496 --> 00:30:34,123
