1. Previously on Riverdale...
Copy !req
2. You wanna get through this,
Copy !req
3. you should hang
Copy !req
4. with the serpents.
Copy !req
5. You really think
Copy !req
6. you can come to my house
Copy !req
7. and there won't be
Copy !req
8. any pay back?
Copy !req
9. I'm wondering when you're
Copy !req
10. actually gonna address the
Copy !req
11. real problem in Riverdale,
Copy !req
12. the Southside.
Copy !req
13. We need to be united.
Copy !req
14. If we let the fear take over,
Copy !req
15. that's when we're dead.
Copy !req
16. I want a more active role
Copy !req
17. in Lodge industries.
Copy !req
18. Of course,
Copy !req
19. you're a Lodge after all.
Copy !req
20. Everybody needs to
Copy !req
21. leave right now!
Copy !req
22. - The Black Hood's coming here.
Copy !req
23. This is from The Black Hood.
Copy !req
24. He says he's doing it for me.
Copy !req
25. - Hello.
Copy !req
26. - Hello, Betty.
Copy !req
27. This is the Black Hood
Copy !req
28. speaking.
Copy !req
29. How...
Copy !req
30. How do I know this is real?
Copy !req
31. "I will strike next
Copy !req
32. where it all began."
Copy !req
33. Were you there?
Copy !req
34. At the Town Hall?
Copy !req
35. Oh, yes.
Copy !req
36. But you didn't hurt anyone?
Copy !req
37. Tonight was all about you.
Copy !req
38. What do you want?
Copy !req
39. The same as you:
Copy !req
40. To set Riverdale on
Copy !req
41. the righteous path again.
Copy !req
42. To cleanse it of sinners...
Copy !req
43. Isn't that what you want?
Copy !req
44. Not by killing people.
Copy !req
45. Only the ones who deserve it.
Copy !req
46. People like... your sister.
Copy !req
47. I know all about the sin
Copy !req
48. she carries in her womb.
Copy !req
49. I also know she's at a farm,
Copy !req
50. two hours North.
Copy !req
51. If you try to warn her,
Copy !req
52. I'll know.
Copy !req
53. If you tell the police
Copy !req
54. we've spoken
Copy !req
55. or your mystery-loving
Copy !req
56. boyfriend
Copy !req
57. I'll carve her like
Copy !req
58. a Jack O'Lantern.
Copy !req
59. Please, don't hurt her.
Copy !req
60. Who are you talking to?
Copy !req
61. It's late.
Copy !req
62. Then don't you deny me, Betty.
Copy !req
63. It was Jughead, wasn't it?
Copy !req
64. Yeah.
Copy !req
65. You know, I gave him
Copy !req
66. the benefit of the doubt,
Copy !req
67. but now that he's living
Copy !req
68. on the Southside
Copy !req
69. amongst those criminals
Copy !req
70. and degenerates,
Copy !req
71. he's showing his true colors.
Copy !req
72. No doubt, inspiring that
Copy !req
73. stunt of yours at Town Hall.
Copy !req
74. Pulling the fire alarm?
Copy !req
75. I didn't know
Copy !req
76. what else to do.
Copy !req
77. Given the letter that
Copy !req
78. the Black Hood sent me.
Copy !req
79. If he even wrote it.
Copy !req
80. Sheriff Keller said
Copy !req
81. something seems off.
Copy !req
82. He's gonna have it analyzed,
Copy !req
83. along with the one that I got.
Copy !req
84. In the meantime,
Copy !req
85. I want you home
Copy !req
86. straight after school
Copy !req
87. - Are we clear?
Copy !req
88. - Yeah. Sorry, Mom.
Copy !req
89. I did what Weatherbee asked.
Copy !req
90. Wrote an apology letter,
Copy !req
91. and posted a new video,
Copy !req
92. apologizing some more.
Copy !req
93. So this Red Circle business,
Copy !req
94. it's over?
Copy !req
95. I'm happy to hear it.
Copy !req
96. Been missing my son.
Copy !req
97. I need to tell you
Copy !req
98. something, Arch,
Copy !req
99. but you can't tell
Copy !req
100. anyone else.
Copy !req
101. Not Veronica, not Jughead
Copy !req
102. not your dad,
Copy !req
103. no one. Promise me.
Copy !req
104. Yeah, sure. I promise.
Copy !req
105. The Black Hood called me.
Copy !req
106. - What?
Copy !req
107. - Keep walking.
Copy !req
108. Wait, the Black Hood
Copy !req
109. called you?
Copy !req
110. Yes. It's risky for me
Copy !req
111. to even be telling you.
Copy !req
112. But we're best friends
Copy !req
113. and we live right next door
Copy !req
114. to each other
Copy !req
115. So us walking
Copy !req
116. to school together,
Copy !req
117. would look perfectly normal
Copy !req
118. to anyone who might
Copy !req
119. be watching.
Copy !req
120. Including him.
Copy !req
121. You think he's watching us?
Copy !req
122. I don't know, he could be.
Copy !req
123. I know it sounds crazy,
Copy !req
124. but it was him.
Copy !req
125. Betty, you have to
Copy !req
126. tell the police.
Copy !req
127. Even if it's not him.
Copy !req
128. It is him.
Copy !req
129. And he told me
Copy !req
130. if I went to the police,
Copy !req
131. or if I told Jughead, he'd...
Copy !req
132. God, he knows
Copy !req
133. where Polly is, Arch.
Copy !req
134. If he calls me again,
Copy !req
135. I have to answer.
Copy !req
136. I'm not letting you
Copy !req
137. go through this alone.
Copy !req
138. "This most recent incident
Copy !req
139. confirms that the real threat
Copy !req
140. is not the Black Hood,
Copy !req
141. but the Southside and
Copy !req
142. its corruptive forces.
Copy !req
143. Developer and
Copy !req
144. ex-con Hiram Lodge
Copy !req
145. boasts that his SoDale
Copy !req
146. project will revitalize
Copy !req
147. the forsaken neighborhood,
Copy !req
148. But this reporter speculates
Copy !req
149. Hiram Lodge doesn't
Copy !req
150. want to fix our problems,
Copy !req
151. merely profit from them."
Copy !req
152. And right before
Copy !req
153. our Open House.
Copy !req
154. Thank you, Alice Cooper.
Copy !req
155. We can't let anything
Copy !req
156. derail the project.
Copy !req
157. Not Alice, not the
Copy !req
158. Southside gangs,
Copy !req
159. not some hooded psychopath.
Copy !req
160. Well, right now,
Copy !req
161. our biggest problem
Copy !req
162. is capital.
Copy !req
163. We're running out of it
Copy !req
164. and fast.
Copy !req
165. I've invited
Copy !req
166. potential investors
Copy !req
167. to the Open House.
Copy !req
168. The St. Clairs are
Copy !req
169. coming up from New York.
Copy !req
170. Wait. They are?
Copy !req
171. Nicky included?
Copy !req
172. I haven't seen
Copy !req
173. Nicky in forever!
Copy !req
174. Yeah. He's a budding
Copy !req
175. music producer, now.
Copy !req
176. And his father
Copy !req
177. is King Midas rich.
Copy !req
178. We get him to invest,
Copy !req
179. others will follow.
Copy !req
180. You wanted a seat
Copy !req
181. at the table?
Copy !req
182. Nick has his father's ear.
Copy !req
183. Help us close this.
Copy !req
184. Show him all the good things
Copy !req
185. Riverdale has to offer.
Copy !req
186. With pleasure.
Copy !req
187. Nice article
Copy !req
188. your girlfriend's Mom wrote.
Copy !req
189. Yeah, I saw that.
Copy !req
190. Dilton Doiley said he was
Copy !req
191. stabbed when a bunch of you
Copy !req
192. guys jumped him.
Copy !req
193. Idiot stabbed himself.
Copy !req
194. With his own knife.
Copy !req
195. And we didn't jump him,
Copy !req
196. there was a fight,
Copy !req
197. Bulldogs versus Serpents,
Copy !req
198. and you see this?
Copy !req
199. Your boy Andrews
Copy !req
200. gave it to me.
Copy !req
201. Just before his girlfriend
Copy !req
202. shot a gun into the air.
Copy !req
203. What happened?
Copy !req
204. And of course,
Copy !req
205. Northsiders get off scot-free,
Copy !req
206. and the rest of us
Copy !req
207. are hauled in by the police.
Copy !req
208. It's payback time.
Copy !req
209. What are you guys
Copy !req
210. talking about?
Copy !req
211. This.
Copy !req
212. What is that?
Copy !req
213. Is that a pipebomb?
Copy !req
214. Fogarty's cousin
Copy !req
215. served in the Army.
Copy !req
216. He's gonna build us something.
Copy !req
217. We'll do it after hours,
Copy !req
218. but it'll shut
Copy !req
219. the Riverdale register down
Copy !req
220. once and for all.
Copy !req
221. You think blowing up
Copy !req
222. a building is going to
Copy !req
223. make things better?
Copy !req
224. Can't get any worse
Copy !req
225. Yeah, Sweet Pea, it can.
Copy !req
226. Let me talk to Archie.
Copy !req
227. Let me figure this out. Okay?
Copy !req
228. Man, that's your answer
Copy !req
229. for everything.
Copy !req
230. Talk and more talk.
Copy !req
231. And we don't even know
Copy !req
232. who you stand with.
Copy !req
233. Us? Or them?
Copy !req
234. You can't be half a Serpent.
Copy !req
235. Great. So Archie started
Copy !req
236. World War III.
Copy !req
237. Northside has been
Copy !req
238. dumping on us for years.
Copy !req
239. Your dad tried to keep
Copy !req
240. the peace, avoid bloodshed.
Copy !req
241. Now that he's gone,
Copy !req
242. idiots like Sweet Pea
Copy !req
243. think there's only one path
Copy !req
244. and one solution.
Copy !req
245. Violence.
Copy !req
246. Nick and I were the
Copy !req
247. "will they or won't
Copy !req
248. they?" of our jet set
Copy !req
249. He's an outrageous flirt,
Copy !req
250. but we never dated.
Copy !req
251. We'd hop from club to club,
Copy !req
252. go on these madcap adventures,
Copy !req
253. - stay up all night...
Copy !req
254. - Who's this now?
Copy !req
255. Oh, Archiekins,
Copy !req
256. don't be jelly,
Copy !req
257. it's just a ghost
Copy !req
258. from my bad girl past,
Copy !req
259. Nick St. Clair,
Copy !req
260. breezing into town
Copy !req
261. for the Open House.
Copy !req
262. You have nothing
Copy !req
263. to worry about.
Copy !req
264. I think
Copy !req
265. this Northsider's lost.
Copy !req
266. I'm not.
Copy !req
267. I'm over
Copy !req
268. being half a Serpent.
Copy !req
269. Wow. You will do
Copy !req
270. anything to protect
Copy !req
271. your Northside buddies.
Copy !req
272. My father was a Serpent.
Copy !req
273. He led you.
Copy !req
274. I wanna stand with you guys.
Copy !req
275. Tall Boy was the one
Copy !req
276. who gave me this jacket.
Copy !req
277. It's finally time
Copy !req
278. I start wearing it.
Copy !req
279. So, now you wanna
Copy !req
280. be a Serpent, huh?
Copy !req
281. Let's see if you survive
Copy !req
282. the initiation first.
Copy !req
283. "Unknown."
Copy !req
284. Hello?
Copy !req
285. Your mother's at work.
Copy !req
286. Yes, she and my dad are...
Copy !req
287. I know, I'm looking at them
Copy !req
288. through a nice,
Copy !req
289. big picture window.
Copy !req
290. Are you alone?
Copy !req
291. I am.
Copy !req
292. She's a thorn in both
Copy !req
293. of our sides, your mother.
Copy !req
294. We can't have her
Copy !req
295. looming over us.
Copy !req
296. Wait. If you're suggesting—
Copy !req
297. Check your email.
Copy !req
298. Publish what I've sent.
Copy !req
299. And then I'll know
Copy !req
300. that you're loyal.
Copy !req
301. I want something in return.
Copy !req
302. To prove your loyalty.
Copy !req
303. How about...
Copy !req
304. You do this for me.
Copy !req
305. And then you get to
Copy !req
306. ask me a question.
Copy !req
307. And I have to answer it.
Copy !req
308. You have until tomorrow night.
Copy !req
309. Oh, my God. Is that...
Copy !req
310. It's my mom.
Copy !req
311. What the hell?
Copy !req
312. Your initiation begins now.
Copy !req
313. With you assuming
Copy !req
314. the guardianship of the beast.
Copy !req
315. - You've gotta be kidding me.
Copy !req
316. So, what do you
Copy !req
317. think of the beast?
Copy !req
318. He stinks and
Copy !req
319. he barks all the time.
Copy !req
320. He's got no boundaries.
Copy !req
321. Every new recruit
Copy !req
322. has to take care
Copy !req
323. of Hot Dog. It's tradition.
Copy !req
324. By the way, this is our
Copy !req
325. third Hot Dog.
Copy !req
326. Oh, Hot Dog the third?
Copy !req
327. This is getting
Copy !req
328. borderline ridiculous.
Copy !req
329. Kind of like
Copy !req
330. Forsyth the third?
Copy !req
331. My mom went after
Copy !req
332. the Black Hood hard,
Copy !req
333. so it's no surprise
Copy !req
334. he wants to humiliate her.
Copy !req
335. We can't do it, Arch.
Copy !req
336. It would destroy
Copy !req
337. her credibility.
Copy !req
338. Yeah. And build yours
Copy !req
339. with the Black Hood.
Copy !req
340. Anyway, what credibility?
Copy !req
341. Your mom's always going
Copy !req
342. after our friends.
Copy !req
343. It would blindside her.
Copy !req
344. We can't publish it.
Copy !req
345. Mr. and Mrs. St. Clair.
Copy !req
346. Nicholas. On behalf of
Copy !req
347. my mother and father,
Copy !req
348. welcome to Riverdale.
Copy !req
349. While you're in town,
Copy !req
350. think of me as your
Copy !req
351. "corporate concierge."
Copy !req
352. Anything you need, ask away.
Copy !req
353. How about a better hotel,
Copy !req
354. to start?
Copy !req
355. Now, now, Nicholas.
Copy !req
356. It's not the Waldorf,
Copy !req
357. nor the Plaza, but,
Copy !req
358. The Five Seasons,
Copy !req
359. like all of Riverdale,
Copy !req
360. it has its charms.
Copy !req
361. One charm. Veronica Lodge,
Copy !req
362. as lovely as ever.
Copy !req
363. We sent the letters
Copy !req
364. to two different specialists
Copy !req
365. but the handwriting
Copy !req
366. wasn't a match.
Copy !req
367. So whoever wrote your letter
Copy !req
368. was either a copycat,
Copy !req
369. or pranking you, or...
Copy !req
370. Or something
Copy !req
371. much more banal
Copy !req
372. like a teenager acting out
Copy !req
373. to get attention.
Copy !req
374. What? You think I wrote it?
Copy !req
375. The cipher was cribbed
Copy !req
376. from a Nancy Drew book
Copy !req
377. of all places.
Copy !req
378. What possible reason could
Copy !req
379. I have for making this up?
Copy !req
380. I don't know, Betty.
Copy !req
381. Maybe you and your
Copy !req
382. Serpent boyfriend
Copy !req
383. cooked this up
Copy !req
384. because you guys were bored.
Copy !req
385. Okay. We're not gonna
Copy !req
386. rule anything out yet,
Copy !req
387. at least not till we know
Copy !req
388. who we're dealing with.
Copy !req
389. "A serpent
Copy !req
390. never shows cowardice."
Copy !req
391. "If a Serpent's killed or
Copy !req
392. imprisoned, their family
Copy !req
393. will be taken care of."
Copy !req
394. Serpents...
Copy !req
395. Come on, focus. You need
Copy !req
396. to take this seriously.
Copy !req
397. Okay, I am, Toni,
Copy !req
398. I swear to God I am, just...
Copy !req
399. First the Beast,
Copy !req
400. and now these laws.
Copy !req
401. Why the change of heart,
Copy !req
402. anyway?
Copy !req
403. Why go from
Copy !req
404. conscientious objector
Copy !req
405. to full-fledged member?
Copy !req
406. 'Cause of something
Copy !req
407. you said...
Copy !req
408. My dad was the only person
Copy !req
409. that was keeping idiots
Copy !req
410. like Sweet Pea in line.
Copy !req
411. Someone needs to step up.
Copy !req
412. To keep an all-out war
Copy !req
413. from erupting.
Copy !req
414. I am taking this
Copy !req
415. seriously, Toni.
Copy !req
416. So from the top.
Copy !req
417. What is the fourth law?
Copy !req
418. - "No serpent
Copy !req
419. is left for dead."
Copy !req
420. What is the fifth law?
Copy !req
421. "A serpent never
Copy !req
422. betrays its own."
Copy !req
423. What is the sixth?
Copy !req
424. "In unity, there is strength."
Copy !req
425. In unity, there is strength!
Copy !req
426. You know the laws.
Copy !req
427. Now it's time
Copy !req
428. for the next trial.
Copy !req
429. Retrieve the knife.
Copy !req
430. What?
Copy !req
431. Rattlesnake, Toni.
Copy !req
432. The rattlesnake bit me
Copy !req
433. and drew blood.
Copy !req
434. One that had
Copy !req
435. its venom glands removed.
Copy !req
436. The important thing is
Copy !req
437. you showed no fear.
Copy !req
438. You grabbed the knife and
Copy !req
439. you remembered all the laws.
Copy !req
440. Which means you're almost
Copy !req
441. a Serpant now, Juggie.
Copy !req
442. My regular, Pop.
Copy !req
443. Thanks.
Copy !req
444. I don't judge you, Alice.
Copy !req
445. It was years ago.
Copy !req
446. What the hell
Copy !req
447. are you talking about?
Copy !req
448. Who gave you
Copy !req
449. this article?
Copy !req
450. Because I know I ripped it
Copy !req
451. out of every public archive.
Copy !req
452. Maybe it was one of the
Copy !req
453. thousands of Southsiders
Copy !req
454. you attack
Copy !req
455. in your paper daily.
Copy !req
456. I mean, really, Mom,
Copy !req
457. you talk trash about FP,
Copy !req
458. about Jughead,
Copy !req
459. about the Serpents
Copy !req
460. when you yourself were one.
Copy !req
461. Why would you publish that?
Copy !req
462. Revenge, plain and simple.
Copy !req
463. No, Mom. Not revenge.
Copy !req
464. Justice.
Copy !req
465. Against you and your
Copy !req
466. holier-than-thou attitude.
Copy !req
467. Betty, that is enough.
Copy !req
468. I'm so glad you two are
Copy !req
469. getting this chance to meet.
Copy !req
470. Although, your brown-nosing
Copy !req
471. at dinner was over the top.
Copy !req
472. How dare you?
Copy !req
473. I love your mother's flan.
Copy !req
474. Although, I still have room
Copy !req
475. for more dessert.
Copy !req
476. Here.
Copy !req
477. No, thank you. I'm full.
Copy !req
478. Veronica Lodge
Copy !req
479. turning down a bump.
Copy !req
480. What a brave new world it is.
Copy !req
481. How about it, Big Red?
Copy !req
482. So, what is it
Copy !req
483. that you country mice do
Copy !req
484. for fun up here?
Copy !req
485. Catch lightning bugs
Copy !req
486. in mason jars?
Copy !req
487. - No, we—
Copy !req
488. - Basically.
Copy !req
489. Ronnie,
Copy !req
490. what kind of kink is this?
Copy !req
491. I wear them when
Copy !req
492. I'm playing with
Copy !req
493. Josie and the Pussycats.
Copy !req
494. - You're in a band?
Copy !req
495. Called the Pussycats?
Copy !req
496. Just when I thought
Copy !req
497. you couldn't possibly
Copy !req
498. get any sexier.
Copy !req
499. Hello?
Copy !req
500. How did it feel, Betty?
Copy !req
501. - Knocking your mother off
Copy !req
502. her high horse?
Copy !req
503. We had a deal.
Copy !req
504. What's your question?
Copy !req
505. And it can't be my name.
Copy !req
506. The face under the hood...
Copy !req
507. Would I recognize it?
Copy !req
508. Yes.
Copy !req
509. Do you feel closer to me now?
Copy !req
510. I do.
Copy !req
511. I feel as if we're friends.
Copy !req
512. But I'm selfish, Betty.
Copy !req
513. I don't like sharing
Copy !req
514. you with other people.
Copy !req
515. So I need you
Copy !req
516. to cut them out of your life,
Copy !req
517. or I will, my way.
Copy !req
518. Let's start
Copy !req
519. with that daughter
Copy !req
520. of a philanderer,
Copy !req
521. and an embezzler, complicit
Copy !req
522. in her father's crimes—
Copy !req
523. Veronica's not...
Copy !req
524. She's innocent.
Copy !req
525. Oh, Betty,
Copy !req
526. you don't really
Copy !req
527. believe that.
Copy !req
528. Betty Cooper.
Copy !req
529. You are a sight
Copy !req
530. for sore eyes.
Copy !req
531. Thanks for coming to meet me.
Copy !req
532. God, I've missed you,
Copy !req
533. I just...
Copy !req
534. I'm feeling...
Copy !req
535. I don't know...
Copy !req
536. Unmoored.
Copy !req
537. Me, too.
Copy !req
538. I just wanted to make sure
Copy !req
539. you were still alive.
Copy !req
540. What do you mean?
Copy !req
541. That exposé that you published
Copy !req
542. about your mom, that article.
Copy !req
543. That's a long story,
Copy !req
544. but yeah, pretty intense.
Copy !req
545. What happened to your hand?
Copy !req
546. I'm dogsitting.
Copy !req
547. You remember Hot Dog,
Copy !req
548. that mutt?
Copy !req
549. Don't worry,
Copy !req
550. he's got his shots.
Copy !req
551. I wish we could just go.
Copy !req
552. Just hop on the motorcycle
Copy !req
553. and just leave Riverdale.
Copy !req
554. Go someplace where
Copy !req
555. there's no Northside,
Copy !req
556. or Southside,
Copy !req
557. or Serpents, Ghoulies...
Copy !req
558. No...
Copy !req
559. Crazy moms,
Copy !req
560. no Black Hoods.
Copy !req
561. Like Romeo and Juliet,
Copy !req
562. but we live happily
Copy !req
563. ever after instead.
Copy !req
564. You Pussycats
Copy !req
565. are pearls before the
Copy !req
566. swine of Riverdale.
Copy !req
567. You all have to
Copy !req
568. come to the party
Copy !req
569. I'm hosting tonight
Copy !req
570. in your honor.
Copy !req
571. Let's say ten o'clock,
Copy !req
572. my hotel room at
Copy !req
573. the Five Seasons.
Copy !req
574. - Did somebody say party?
Copy !req
575. Hi, there.
Copy !req
576. I'm Riverdale's Resident
Copy !req
577. It Girl, Cheryl Blossom.
Copy !req
578. You must be Veronica's
Copy !req
579. old school chum
Copy !req
580. I keep hearing about
Copy !req
581. Nick St. Clair.
Copy !req
582. Now that's a name
Copy !req
583. I can get behind.
Copy !req
584. Ten o'clock, you said?
Copy !req
585. I'll be there at 11:00.
Copy !req
586. Betty.
Copy !req
587. What's up?
Copy !req
588. I uh... I went by
Copy !req
589. your house this morning,
Copy !req
590. to walk you to school,
Copy !req
591. but your mom said
Copy !req
592. you'd already left.
Copy !req
593. Did he call you again?
Copy !req
594. No, he didn't.
Copy !req
595. Betty...
Copy !req
596. My old friend Nick here
Copy !req
597. is having a little soiree
Copy !req
598. at his hotel tonight.
Copy !req
599. Will you come?
Copy !req
600. Betty's my bestie
Copy !req
601. and the best.
Copy !req
602. I won't take no for an answer.
Copy !req
603. I wouldn't miss it.
Copy !req
604. And then, we walk into
Copy !req
605. the Gilded Lily,
Copy !req
606. and there's Gal! Again!
Copy !req
607. - "Gal"?
Copy !req
608. Gadot. Keep up, Archie.
Copy !req
609. Archiekins. A refill,
Copy !req
610. s'il vous plait?
Copy !req
611. Forget the teetotaling.
Copy !req
612. Let's move on to something
Copy !req
613. with a little more kick.
Copy !req
614. - Is that—
Copy !req
615. - Jinglejangle?
Copy !req
616. Why, yes. It is.
Copy !req
617. - I hooked him up.
Copy !req
618. - Tasters? Who's up first?
Copy !req
619. Dude, we told you,
Copy !req
620. we're not—
Copy !req
621. Archie, don't take this
Copy !req
622. the wrong way,
Copy !req
623. but you are an epic buzzkill.
Copy !req
624. Come on, Vee.
Copy !req
625. Like back in the day.
Copy !req
626. Aren't you supposed
Copy !req
627. to be showing me a good time?
Copy !req
628. Per Daddy's orders?
Copy !req
629. Down, Nicky,
Copy !req
630. I'm just getting going.
Copy !req
631. And now that you mention it,
Copy !req
632. I, in fact, wouldn't mind
Copy !req
633. a little sugar
Copy !req
634. to spice up this party.
Copy !req
635. What?
Copy !req
636. Every other night
Copy !req
637. it's burgers and milkshakes.
Copy !req
638. Can't we just cut loose
Copy !req
639. and pretend we're normal,
Copy !req
640. for once?
Copy !req
641. - I'm in.
Copy !req
642. - Me, too.
Copy !req
643. Kevin?
Copy !req
644. Pussycats,
Copy !req
645. care to partake?
Copy !req
646. - Betty?
Copy !req
647. - No, thanks.
Copy !req
648. - Come on, it'll be fun.
Copy !req
649. - I said no, Vee.
Copy !req
650. Okay, relax, Betty,
Copy !req
651. this is strictly voluntary.
Copy !req
652. Perhaps we should decamp
Copy !req
653. to the bedroom,
Copy !req
654. so as not to corrupt
Copy !req
655. the country mice.
Copy !req
656. You know what?
Copy !req
657. I changed my mind. I'm in.
Copy !req
658. Bravo, Archie Andrews!
Copy !req
659. There's that good,
Copy !req
660. strong Riverdale stock
Copy !req
661. I've been jonesing for!
Copy !req
662. Girls. Alright, Let's go.
Copy !req
663. Come on, Betty,
Copy !req
664. don't be such a wallflower!
Copy !req
665. You're boyfriendless
Copy !req
666. for a night! Have some fun!
Copy !req
667. Like you, you mean?
Copy !req
668. I was gonna say
Copy !req
669. you're making
Copy !req
670. a fool of yourself.
Copy !req
671. Acting like some privileged,
Copy !req
672. shallow, airhead party girl.
Copy !req
673. Excuse me?
Copy !req
674. Yeah.
Copy !req
675. I mean,
Copy !req
676. it's all recycled banter
Copy !req
677. and plunging necklines
Copy !req
678. and throwing shade
Copy !req
679. to distract us
Copy !req
680. all from the fact that there's
Copy !req
681. really nothing going on
Copy !req
682. underneath—
Copy !req
683. - Betty, what the hell
Copy !req
684. are you saying?
Copy !req
685. - What we're all thinking.
Copy !req
686. That the only reason
Copy !req
687. Veronica hangs out with us
Copy !req
688. is circumstance.
Copy !req
689. She's not our friend.
Copy !req
690. The minute someone from her
Copy !req
691. trashy past shows up,
Copy !req
692. she starts using us for drugs
Copy !req
693. or music or distraction,
Copy !req
694. and why should we
Copy !req
695. be surprised?
Copy !req
696. Like father,
Copy !req
697. like daughter, right?
Copy !req
698. You better shut it down,
Copy !req
699. Betty.
Copy !req
700. Or what, Veronica?
Copy !req
701. You'll have your dad
Copy !req
702. put a hit on me?
Copy !req
703. Or maybe
Copy !req
704. you'll do it yourself,
Copy !req
705. because you may have
Copy !req
706. fooled all of them,
Copy !req
707. but not me.
Copy !req
708. Try to reform all you want,
Copy !req
709. but you're a bad person,
Copy !req
710. Veronica.
Copy !req
711. You'll always be
Copy !req
712. a bad person.
Copy !req
713. Why don't you just go, then,
Copy !req
714. if I'm such a monster?
Copy !req
715. - Veronica—
Copy !req
716. - I'm fine.
Copy !req
717. Obviously, she's not.
Copy !req
718. What? You wanna go
Copy !req
719. after her, be my guest.
Copy !req
720. But I'll be damned
Copy !req
721. if I'm chasing
Copy !req
722. Betty down after that...
Copy !req
723. Whatever it was.
Copy !req
724. In fact, Reggie?
Copy !req
725. Turn the music up, will you?
Copy !req
726. What's up?
Copy !req
727. Jughead, I, um...
Copy !req
728. I came to warn you, I guess.
Copy !req
729. If you're having
Copy !req
730. second thoughts,
Copy !req
731. now would be the time
Copy !req
732. to back out
Copy !req
733. because the final trial,
Copy !req
734. is on a whole other level.
Copy !req
735. "The Gauntlet", you mean?
Copy !req
736. If it's anything
Copy !req
737. like the Beast,
Copy !req
738. I think I'll be fine.
Copy !req
739. It's whatever.
Copy !req
740. No, Jughead,
Copy !req
741. it's not "whatever."
Copy !req
742. You join us,
Copy !req
743. you gotta be willing
Copy !req
744. to die for us.
Copy !req
745. Because we will for you.
Copy !req
746. And your Northside friends?
Copy !req
747. Your girlfriend?
Copy !req
748. You're gonna look up
Copy !req
749. one day, and they're
Copy !req
750. all gonna be gone,
Copy !req
751. because that's what happens
Copy !req
752. when you join a gang.
Copy !req
753. The Serpents are no exception.
Copy !req
754. Consider me warned,
Copy !req
755. thank you, Toni.
Copy !req
756. Never has one of my parties
Copy !req
757. fizzled out so spectacularly.
Copy !req
758. I don't know
Copy !req
759. what got into Betty.
Copy !req
760. She's my best friend,
Copy !req
761. believe it or not.
Copy !req
762. Those things that she said,
Copy !req
763. you're not a bad person,
Copy !req
764. Veronica.
Copy !req
765. In fact, you're incredible.
Copy !req
766. You're smart, vivacious.
Copy !req
767. You're sexy.
Copy !req
768. Nick, I'm sorry if I gave you
Copy !req
769. the wrong impression.
Copy !req
770. - I'm with Archie.
Copy !req
771. - Oh, come on, Vee.
Copy !req
772. You barely looked at
Copy !req
773. that hayseed yokel all night.
Copy !req
774. You were all over me.
Copy !req
775. Nick, we're friends,
Copy !req
776. we're old friends.
Copy !req
777. Nick, I mean it, stop!
Copy !req
778. Same old Veronica, huh?
Copy !req
779. You flirt and you tease,
Copy !req
780. but in the end,
Copy !req
781. you think
Copy !req
782. you're better than me.
Copy !req
783. You're a pig.
Copy !req
784. With the power to implode
Copy !req
785. this pathetic deal your
Copy !req
786. criminal father's
Copy !req
787. so desperately trying
Copy !req
788. to make happen.
Copy !req
789. So unless you want
Copy !req
790. that to go away,
Copy !req
791. I'd be thinking of ways
Copy !req
792. you might start showing me
Copy !req
793. some appreciation.
Copy !req
794. If you need help,
Copy !req
795. I can suggest a couple...
Copy !req
796. I did it.
Copy !req
797. But now I want my question,
Copy !req
798. - what will make you stop?
Copy !req
799. - You.
Copy !req
800. As long as you continue
Copy !req
801. showing me your devotion.
Copy !req
802. I can't keep doing this...
Copy !req
803. Sure you can.
Copy !req
804. Jughead.
Copy !req
805. - The son of a Serpent.
Copy !req
806. - No.
Copy !req
807. He's not worthy of your love.
Copy !req
808. Cut him out of your life...
Copy !req
809. Or I will.
Copy !req
810. What the hell
Copy !req
811. was that last night?
Copy !req
812. - Betty...
Copy !req
813. - I lied to you.
Copy !req
814. When you asked me
Copy !req
815. if the Black Hood had
Copy !req
816. called again. He did.
Copy !req
817. And he told me to cut Veronica
Copy !req
818. out of my life or he'd...
Copy !req
819. And now he wants me to do
Copy !req
820. the same with Jughead...
Copy !req
821. Betty, why didn't you tell me?
Copy !req
822. Because I knew you'd try
Copy !req
823. to talk me out of it.
Copy !req
824. You're right.
Copy !req
825. It's my mistake.
Copy !req
826. Archie, put the phone down!
Copy !req
827. Put the phone down!
Copy !req
828. Listen to me.
Copy !req
829. He hasn't attacked
Copy !req
830. or killed anyone
Copy !req
831. since we started talking.
Copy !req
832. I think
Copy !req
833. this is distracting him.
Copy !req
834. Betty, he's torturing you.
Copy !req
835. Making you hurt your mom,
Copy !req
836. Veronica and now Jughead?
Copy !req
837. How are you gonna put him
Copy !req
838. and yourself through that?
Copy !req
839. I was hoping
Copy !req
840. maybe you would do it.
Copy !req
841. What?
Copy !req
842. Maybe you could tell him
Copy !req
843. that we just need to stay away
Copy !req
844. from each other for a while.
Copy !req
845. Something, anything,
Copy !req
846. to just keep him away...
Copy !req
847. To appease the Black Hood.
Copy !req
848. - Betty.
Copy !req
849. - It doesn't have to be
Copy !req
850. cruel, Archie,
Copy !req
851. just enough
Copy !req
852. to make Jug believe it.
Copy !req
853. We can walk it back later.
Copy !req
854. You mean, you hope we can.
Copy !req
855. No. We can.
Copy !req
856. And we will.
Copy !req
857. Please, Archie.
Copy !req
858. Don't quit on me now.
Copy !req
859. Hey, so great to see you.
Copy !req
860. - Thank you for coming.
Copy !req
861. - Glad to see you.
Copy !req
862. Oh, well, if this turnout
Copy !req
863. doesn't convince the
Copy !req
864. St. Clairs to invest,
Copy !req
865. I don't know what will.
Copy !req
866. Hey, mija.
Copy !req
867. How'd it go with Nick?
Copy !req
868. Why, did he say something?
Copy !req
869. No, we haven't seen him.
Copy !req
870. But from all reports,
Copy !req
871. your charm offensive
Copy !req
872. is paying off. Good work.
Copy !req
873. Oh, there's Nick now.
Copy !req
874. Oh, looks like
Copy !req
875. we're running low on canapes.
Copy !req
876. Excuse me while I go
Copy !req
877. quietly yell at the caterer.
Copy !req
878. And I have
Copy !req
879. a partner to wrangle.
Copy !req
880. Yeah.
Copy !req
881. The whole point
Copy !req
882. of this Open House
Copy !req
883. is to socialize.
Copy !req
884. Figured I'd leave
Copy !req
885. that to the pros.
Copy !req
886. You're not without
Copy !req
887. your charms, Fred Andrews.
Copy !req
888. We're glad
Copy !req
889. you're back at work.
Copy !req
890. We, huh?
Copy !req
891. Hiram Lodge.
Copy !req
892. It's been a long time, buddy.
Copy !req
893. Yeah. Glad you could make it.
Copy !req
894. - Hey, my pleasure.
Copy !req
895. - Where's Alice?
Copy !req
896. Well, between us,
Copy !req
897. that mugshot took
Copy !req
898. a toll on her.
Copy !req
899. So we both decided,
Copy !req
900. it'd be better if I
Copy !req
901. covered the event alone.
Copy !req
902. Well, we'd love to
Copy !req
903. have you standing with us
Copy !req
904. up on that stage.
Copy !req
905. I mean, hell, you built it.
Copy !req
906. That's true.
Copy !req
907. Oh, my God!
Copy !req
908. Thunder, thunder
Copy !req
909. Thunder, thun... Thunder
Copy !req
910. Thun-thun-thunder
Copy !req
911. Thunder, thunder
Copy !req
912. Thunder, thun... Thunder
Copy !req
913. Thun-thun-thunder, thunder
Copy !req
914. Thunder, feel the thunder
Copy !req
915. Lightning then the thunder
Copy !req
916. - Alice.
Copy !req
917. - Shove it, Hal.
Copy !req
918. You're gonna need to
Copy !req
919. top this off, thank you.
Copy !req
920. Before you throw
Copy !req
921. a drink in my face,
Copy !req
922. I'm sorry.
Copy !req
923. I crossed the line.
Copy !req
924. You obliterated a line.
Copy !req
925. I strongly concur,
Copy !req
926. and it's not an excuse,
Copy !req
927. but over the last three
Copy !req
928. months, I've been...
Copy !req
929. in and out of rehab.
Copy !req
930. It's been... a struggle.
Copy !req
931. Obviously.
Copy !req
932. Last night was messy,
Copy !req
933. but we've all been there.
Copy !req
934. So, why don't we start over
Copy !req
935. with two glasses
Copy !req
936. of ginger ale.
Copy !req
937. I'll drink to that.
Copy !req
938. - Archie...
Copy !req
939. - We gotta talk, Jug.
Copy !req
940. Uh, now is really not
Copy !req
941. a good time, okay?
Copy !req
942. You need to leave, okay?
Copy !req
943. You gotta go.
Copy !req
944. Why, what's going on?
Copy !req
945. What the hell do we have here?
Copy !req
946. - Just leave him, all right?
Copy !req
947. - Wait.
Copy !req
948. You're friends
Copy !req
949. with these thugs?
Copy !req
950. It's not what you think.
Copy !req
951. Are you joining the Serpents?
Copy !req
952. If he survives, and go ahead
Copy !req
953. and call us thugs
Copy !req
954. one more time.
Copy !req
955. Jughead, these are the guys
Copy !req
956. who attacked me.
Copy !req
957. Who attacked Reggie,
Copy !req
958. and Veronica and Dilton.
Copy !req
959. Your friends.
Copy !req
960. Wait, is that why you're here?
Copy !req
961. - To warn me?
Copy !req
962. - No.
Copy !req
963. I came here to tell you
Copy !req
964. to stay away from Betty.
Copy !req
965. She doesn't want to
Copy !req
966. see you anymore.
Copy !req
967. Screw you, I just saw
Copy !req
968. Betty yesterday...
Copy !req
969. - She was fine.
Copy !req
970. - No, dude.
Copy !req
971. She's been wanting to
Copy !req
972. break up with you for weeks.
Copy !req
973. She's been agonizing over it.
Copy !req
974. Since you crossed
Copy !req
975. the dark side,
Copy !req
976. she couldn't bring herself
Copy !req
977. to do it.
Copy !req
978. So, she sent you?
Copy !req
979. Betty would never do that!
Copy !req
980. If you don't believe me,
Copy !req
981. then call her.
Copy !req
982. And feel free to tell her
Copy !req
983. you're a Serpent now, too.
Copy !req
984. I bet she'll love that.
Copy !req
985. She saw where
Copy !req
986. you were headed, Jughead.
Copy !req
987. We all did and she knows
Copy !req
988. you can't be with them
Copy !req
989. and with her.
Copy !req
990. Come on, man.
Copy !req
991. You know it, too.
Copy !req
992. Tell Betty I got the message.
Copy !req
993. Yeah.
Copy !req
994. What? Did you enjoy the show?
Copy !req
995. The show hasn't
Copy !req
996. even started yet.
Copy !req
997. We didn't get much of a chance
Copy !req
998. to talk last night.
Copy !req
999. - I'm choosing to blame Betty's
Copy !req
1000. Britneyesque meltdown.
Copy !req
1001. I'll let you make it up to me.
Copy !req
1002. Pour moi?
Copy !req
1003. Merci.
Copy !req
1004. Ladies and gentlemen.
Copy !req
1005. A new story begins
Copy !req
1006. in Riverdale tonight.
Copy !req
1007. A story about reinvention
Copy !req
1008. and aspiration.
Copy !req
1009. This building will be
Copy !req
1010. the first chapter
Copy !req
1011. of that story.
Copy !req
1012. Luxury apartments, shopping,
Copy !req
1013. and even a golf course.
Copy !req
1014. The Southside as we know it
Copy !req
1015. will be gone,
Copy !req
1016. replaced with a new Eden.
Copy !req
1017. So let us raise our glasses
Copy !req
1018. to a brighter tomorrow.
Copy !req
1019. Today, let's celebrate
Copy !req
1020. with a little music.
Copy !req
1021. What's the time?
Copy !req
1022. Well, it's gotta be
Copy !req
1023. close to midnight
Copy !req
1024. My body's talkin' to me
Copy !req
1025. It says, "Time for danger"
Copy !req
1026. It says
Copy !req
1027. "I wanna commit a crime
Copy !req
1028. Wanna be
Copy !req
1029. The cause of a fight
Copy !req
1030. I wanna put on a tight skirt
Copy !req
1031. And flirt with a stranger"
Copy !req
1032. I've had a knack
Copy !req
1033. From way back
Copy !req
1034. At breaking the rules
Copy !req
1035. Once I learn the game
Copy !req
1036. Get up! Life's too quick
Copy !req
1037. I know someplace sick
Copy !req
1038. Where this chick'll dance
Copy !req
1039. In the flames
Copy !req
1040. We don't need any money
Copy !req
1041. I always get in for free
Copy !req
1042. You can get in, too
Copy !req
1043. If you get in with me
Copy !req
1044. Let's go out tonight
Copy !req
1045. Meow
Copy !req
1046. You all right?
Copy !req
1047. I'm fine...
Copy !req
1048. I just need some air.
Copy !req
1049. Is that all you got?
Copy !req
1050. You wanna play
Copy !req
1051. Let's run away
Copy !req
1052. We won't be back
Copy !req
1053. Before it's New Year's Day
Copy !req
1054. Take me out tonight
Copy !req
1055. Get off of her!
Copy !req
1056. In the evening
Copy !req
1057. I've got to roam
Copy !req
1058. Can't sleep in the city
Copy !req
1059. Of neon and chrome
Copy !req
1060. Feels too damn much
Copy !req
1061. Like home
Copy !req
1062. When the Spanish babies cry
Copy !req
1063. So let's find a bar
Copy !req
1064. So dark we forget who we are
Copy !req
1065. Where all the scars
Copy !req
1066. From the nevers
Copy !req
1067. And maybes die
Copy !req
1068. Let's go out tonight
Copy !req
1069. Don't forsake me
Copy !req
1070. Out tonight
Copy !req
1071. Is it done?
Copy !req
1072. Yes.
Copy !req
1073. Ask me your question.
Copy !req
1074. There's only one
Copy !req
1075. I care about now.
Copy !req
1076. You want to know
Copy !req
1077. who I am...
Copy !req
1078. Well, here's an abandoned
Copy !req
1079. house on the edge
Copy !req
1080. of Fox Forest
Copy !req
1081. at the end of the
Copy !req
1082. Service Road.
Copy !req
1083. You'll find your answer there.
Copy !req
1084. I'm here.
Copy !req
1085. Do you see it?
Copy !req
1086. Yes.
Copy !req
1087. It's the answer
Copy !req
1088. to your question.
Copy !req
1089. Put it on.
Copy !req
1090. - Why?
Copy !req
1091. - Put it on and you'll see.
Copy !req
1092. - It's on.
Copy !req
1093. - Now, turn around.
Copy !req
1094. Why are you
Copy !req
1095. doing this to me?
Copy !req
1096. To show you that
Copy !req
1097. we're the same.
Copy !req
1098. Archie? I can't...
Copy !req
1099. Come to the
Copy !req
1100. Pembrooke. It's Cheryl.
Copy !req
1101. Something bad happened.
Copy !req
1102. What?
Copy !req
1103. If you hadn't come
Copy !req
1104. when you did...
Copy !req
1105. Where the hell is he?
Copy !req
1106. You can put
Copy !req
1107. your cape away, Archie.
Copy !req
1108. The Pussycats
Copy !req
1109. already saved me.
Copy !req
1110. I feel so sick about this.
Copy !req
1111. Nick's a monster.
Copy !req
1112. And there's no way he
Copy !req
1113. hasn't done this before.
Copy !req
1114. Probably right under my nose.
Copy !req
1115. It's not your fault,
Copy !req
1116. Veronica.
Copy !req
1117. I wanna press charges.
Copy !req
1118. I want Nick to pay.
Copy !req
1119. To suffer.
Copy !req
1120. To burn in hell.
Copy !req
1121. Welcome to the Serpents.
Copy !req
1122. Officially.
Copy !req
1123. You're gonna have a hard time
Copy !req
1124. hiding that from Betty.
Copy !req
1125. I think it's a non-issue now.
Copy !req
1126. I wasn't sure
Copy !req
1127. if you were going
Copy !req
1128. to call again.
Copy !req
1129. There's one piece
Copy !req
1130. of unfinished business.
Copy !req
1131. What's that?
Copy !req
1132. The fact that
Copy !req
1133. you've been telling
Copy !req
1134. Archie about our chats.
Copy !req
1135. Betty,
Copy !req
1136. I've been watching you...
Copy !req
1137. You never said
Copy !req
1138. I couldn't tell Archie.
Copy !req
1139. You broke the rules, Betty,
Copy !req
1140. and now your sister will pay.
Copy !req
1141. Please don't hurt her.
Copy !req
1142. Then give me another name.
Copy !req
1143. - Right now.
Copy !req
1144. - What?
Copy !req
1145. If you want
Copy !req
1146. to save your sister,
Copy !req
1147. give me another name.
Copy !req
1148. The name of
Copy !req
1149. someone guilty.
Copy !req
1150. Come on, Betty.
Copy !req
1151. One little name.
Copy !req
1152. I won't, I can't do that...
Copy !req
1153. Then I'll kill your sister.
Copy !req
1154. And your mother
Copy !req
1155. and your father,
Copy !req
1156. and everyone you hold dear.
Copy !req
1157. Nick St. Clair.
Copy !req
1158. He's staying
Copy !req
1159. at the Five Seasons.
Copy !req
1160. I told you we were the same.
Copy !req
