12. The Red and the BlackCopy !req
13. on two conditions.Copy !req
14. One, no gangs.Copy !req
15. Two, no Jingle Jangle.Copy !req

18. in either, we're done.Copy !req
19. You should hang withCopy !req
20. the Serpents.Copy !req
21. The Ghoulies get whiff thatCopy !req

35. Nick St. Clair.Copy !req
36. In Riverdale,Copy !req
37. everyone wears a mask,Copy !req
38. not just the Black Hood.Copy !req
39. But every so often,Copy !req
40. the mask slipsCopy !req
41. and our true selvesCopy !req

43. the world to see.Copy !req
44. Morning. You...Copy !req
45. you hungry?Copy !req
46. You never have to ask me that.Copy !req

53. People have alreadyCopy !req
54. seen what's underneath...Copy !req
55. And it's terrifying.Copy !req
56. Oh, my God.Copy !req
57. What? Here to finish whatCopy !req

72. Well, there's beenCopy !req
73. a complaint made against him.Copy !req
74. He's gonna have to comeCopy !req
75. down to the station.Copy !req
76. You and your wife, as well.Copy !req
77. You might wannaCopy !req
78. get dressed, son.Copy !req
79. Should I askCopy !req
80. what you're doing here?Copy !req
81. I'm...Copy !req
82. making sure Nick gotCopy !req
83. what was coming to him.Copy !req
84. Go home, Betty.Copy !req
85. You didn't kill him.Copy !req
86. Nick isn't oneCopy !req
87. of Riverdale's sons.Copy !req
88. And you'd already given meCopy !req
89. the most wonderful gift.Copy !req
90. When you said Nick's name,Copy !req
91. in that moment of nakedness,Copy !req
92. you let me seeCopy !req
93. the real Betty.Copy !req
94. And she was beautiful,Copy !req
95. and righteous.Copy !req
96. Judge, jury, executioner—Copy !req
97. No, no,Copy !req
98. that's not. I'm...Copy !req
99. Now that I've seenCopy !req
100. your true self, Betty,Copy !req
101. the real work can begin.Copy !req
102. What do you mean?Copy !req
103. Penelope, thank youCopy !req
104. for coming.Copy !req
105. We calledCopy !req
106. as soon as Cheryl told us.Copy !req
107. And I appreciate that,Copy !req
108. I just wish you'dCopy !req
109. stopped her from talkingCopy !req
110. to Sheriff Keller.Copy !req
111. Lord knows what CherylCopy !req
112. did or saidCopy !req
113. to the St. Clair boyCopy !req
114. to provoke him.Copy !req
115. According to Veronica,Copy !req
116. nothing.Copy !req
117. Hermione. Hiram.Copy !req
118. I want thisCopy !req
119. handled discreetly.Copy !req
120. Well, I'm confidentCopy !req
121. that theCopy !req
122. St. ClairsCopy !req

124. Then it's settled.Copy !req
125. I'll talk to thatCopy !req
126. idiot KellerCopy !req
127. and tell him we won'tCopy !req
128. be pressing charges.Copy !req
129. After all,Copy !req
130. nothing really happenedCopy !req
131. to Cheryl.Copy !req
132. Cheryl, I'm... so sorry.Copy !req
133. Don't be silly.Copy !req
134. I'm used to it.Copy !req
135. And besides,Copy !req
136. you heard what Mommy said.Copy !req
137. Nothing really happened to me.Copy !req
138. - Nick roofied you, he tried—Copy !req
139. - I'm fine,Copy !req
140. Veronica. Everything's fine.Copy !req
141. If everything's fine,Copy !req
142. why did we call Sheriff KellerCopy !req
143. and make a statement?Copy !req
144. A momentary lapse in sanity.Copy !req
145. I mean,Copy !req
146. can you even imagine?Copy !req
147. Me, facing off againstCopy !req
148. Nick St. Clair in aCopy !req
149. courtroom battle royale?Copy !req
150. - I'd be a laughing stock.Copy !req
151. - Cheryl, wait.Copy !req
152. It's not just you.Copy !req
153. He's done it to other girls,Copy !req
154. I mean, hell,Copy !req
155. he even tried to do it to me.Copy !req
156. The night beforeCopy !req
157. the open house.Copy !req
158. Did you tell your parents?Copy !req
159. And yet youCopy !req
160. were happy to fill them inCopy !req
161. on my after-dark-drama,Copy !req
162. weren't you?Copy !req
163. Well, I won't be a puppet forCopy !req
164. your thirst for vengeance.Copy !req
165. You want justice?Copy !req
166. You go after NickCopy !req
167. in court, Veronica.Copy !req
168. ThanksCopy !req
169. for letting me sleep over.Copy !req
170. Now on to the next crashpadCopy !req
171. until my uncleCopy !req
172. stops locking me out.Copy !req
173. My trailer is your trailer.Copy !req
174. - Last night was—Copy !req
175. - A PG-13 grope-session?Copy !req
176. Ooh. Way to knock a guyCopy !req
177. down a peg.Copy !req
178. Look, cards on the table.Copy !req
179. You're not over Betty,Copy !req
180. and I'm not interested inCopy !req
181. being anybody's rebound.Copy !req
182. Besides,Copy !req
183. I'm more into girls anyways.Copy !req
184. Roger that.Copy !req
185. I needed toCopy !req
186. clear my head and I did.Copy !req
187. And I realized that thisCopy !req
188. is just a sick game to him.Copy !req
189. Psychological torture.Copy !req
190. So,Copy !req
191. I'm done.Copy !req
192. With the Black Hood.Copy !req
193. With his letters,Copy !req
194. with his Simon Says.Copy !req
195. So, what happensCopy !req
196. when he calls again?Copy !req
197. I won't answer.Copy !req
198. I can't... keep playing.Copy !req
199. I can't.Copy !req
200. - Didn't he threaten Polly?Copy !req
201. - He did and I talked to her.Copy !req
202. The people at the FarmCopy !req
203. are gonna help herCopy !req
204. disappear for a while.Copy !req
205. - Just until it's safe again.Copy !req
206. - Yeah, whenever that is.Copy !req
207. And what about JugheadCopy !req
208. and Veronica?Copy !req
209. We have to tell themCopy !req
210. the truth.Copy !req
211. And we will.Copy !req
212. I'll tell them. Let's just,Copy !req
213. you know,Copy !req
214. let things settle first.Copy !req
215. Make sure it's all over.Copy !req
216. - Mom.Copy !req
217. - Dad.Copy !req
218. Riverdale's bestCopy !req
219. and brightest, huh?Copy !req
220. Alice, thank you for hosting.Copy !req
221. Of course, Mayor McCoy.Copy !req
222. When I heardCopy !req
223. what happened at Nick's party,Copy !req
224. I decided thatCopy !req
225. we should come togetherCopy !req
226. to deal withCopy !req
227. this motley crew of liars,Copy !req
228. dope-fiends, and fornicators.Copy !req
229. Except for my Betty,Copy !req
230. who was smart enoughCopy !req
231. to leave the partyCopy !req
232. before it descended intoCopy !req
233. a bacchanalian free for allCopy !req
234. Oh, my God.Copy !req
235. Mom, please don't.Copy !req
236. Oh great, here we goCopy !req
237. Saint Betty andCopy !req
238. Succubus Veronica.Copy !req
239. So,Copy !req
240. just for clarity, Alice,Copy !req
241. you're hosting thisCopy !req
242. little get-together to what?Copy !req
243. You know, I mayCopy !req
244. have taken Jingle Jangle,Copy !req
245. but she's the oneCopy !req
246. who had a psychotic breakCopy !req
247. Cut her some slack, Veronica.Copy !req
248. She just broke upCopy !req
249. with Jughead.Copy !req
250. Hashtag BugheadCopy !req
251. is no more?Copy !req
252. And Betty didn't tell me?Copy !req
253. Careful throwing stones there,Copy !req
254. acid-queen Alice.Copy !req
255. I'm not the only oneCopy !req
256. in this roomCopy !req
257. that knows the storyCopy !req
258. behind that mugshotCopy !req
259. that your daughter printedCopy !req
260. in her paper.Copy !req
261. Well I, for one,Copy !req
262. would like to knowCopy !req
263. who brought theCopy !req
264. Jingle Jangle to the party?Copy !req
265. Reginald, not a single wordCopy !req
266. out of your mouthCopy !req
267. until we get a lawyer.Copy !req
268. No, all Reggie needs toCopy !req
269. tell us, Melinda,Copy !req
270. is how he acquired it.Copy !req
271. Some gang member who dealsCopy !req
272. on the Southside...Copy !req
273. Oh, my God, you have a dealer?Copy !req
274. Once again, Mayor,Copy !req
275. the Southside is the sourceCopy !req
276. of all our problems.Copy !req
277. Was he a Serpent?Copy !req
278. Does he go to Southside High?Copy !req
279. - I think so, yeah.Copy !req
280. - What does it matter?Copy !req
281. Not all SerpentsCopy !req
282. are drug dealers.Copy !req
283. - Archie, not helping.Copy !req
284. - Look,Copy !req
285. we shouldn't have takenCopy !req
286. the JJ,Copy !req
287. but Nick's the oneCopy !req
288. who asked Reggie to get itCopy !req
289. and then pushed it on us.Copy !req
290. He's the oneCopy !req
291. who should be in the hot seat.Copy !req
292. I mean, he's the oneCopy !req
293. who roofied Cheryl andCopy !req
294. tried to assault her.Copy !req
295. Prosecuting Nick St. ClairCopy !req
296. would be difficultCopy !req
297. given thatCopy !req
298. all witnesses were high.Copy !req
299. Yeah, but Josie and I sawCopy !req
300. Nick with CherylCopy !req
301. the night after the party,Copy !req
302. and neither of usCopy !req
303. were on Jingle Jangle.Copy !req
304. The drug staysCopy !req
305. in your system for three days.Copy !req
306. So if I drug testedCopy !req
307. you right now,Copy !req
308. you'd haveCopy !req
309. a credibility problem.Copy !req
310. Josie, you took that drug?Copy !req
311. You put that poisonCopy !req
312. in your system,Copy !req
313. knowing the way your father'sCopy !req
314. struggled with addiction?Copy !req
315. I see.Copy !req
316. From this moment on,Copy !req
317. bringing the SouthsideCopy !req
318. under controlCopy !req
319. is my number oneCopy !req
320. priority as mayor.Copy !req
321. If it meansCopy !req
322. razing it to the groundCopy !req
323. or arrestingCopy !req
324. every single Serpent in sight,Copy !req
325. starting at that high school,Copy !req
326. so be it.Copy !req
327. Let's go, Josephine,Copy !req
328. now!Copy !req
329. "People haveCopy !req
330. associated this school withCopy !req
331. the plagues of the Southside.Copy !req
332. Drugs, gangs, violence.Copy !req
333. But, like the Southside,Copy !req
334. there is a community here.Copy !req
335. And while the decay is real,Copy !req
336. it is not irreversible."Copy !req
337. I'm impressed, Jughead.Copy !req
338. Where'd you find the timeCopy !req
339. to put out an issueCopy !req
340. of The Red and the BlackCopy !req
341. while pledgingCopy !req
342. the Southside Serpents?Copy !req
343. I'm not blind.Copy !req
344. We had a deal.Copy !req
345. The Serpents...Copy !req
346. They truly are a community,Copy !req
347. Mr. Phillips.Copy !req
348. A community of drug-dealers.Copy !req
349. That's not the Serpents.Copy !req
350. That's the Ghoulies.Copy !req
351. That's my next article.Copy !req
352. - Jughead, when you said...Copy !req
353. Uh, will you excuse me?Copy !req
354. Just two seconds.Copy !req
355. I'm sorry.Copy !req
356. I'm sorry, Mr. Phillips.Copy !req
357. Jug! Jug!Copy !req
358. We gotta go, right now.Copy !req
359. What the hellCopy !req
360. are you doing here?Copy !req
361. Betty ask you to throwCopy !req
362. some salt in the wound?Copy !req
363. Mayor McCoy's about to raidCopy !req
364. Southside High.Copy !req
365. We gotta get you outCopy !req
366. of here, right now, come on.Copy !req
367. Toni!Copy !req
368. Jug, you wanna help her?Copy !req
369. You can't do thatCopy !req
370. from behind bars. Come on.Copy !req
371. What do you meanCopy !req
372. Nick did it to you?Copy !req
373. He tried to.Copy !req
374. After the penthouse partyCopy !req
375. but I nipped it in the bud.Copy !req
376. Ugh, I hope Nick St. ClairCopy !req
377. chokes on his silver spoon.Copy !req
378. You need to tell someone.Copy !req
379. My dad. Or your dad.Copy !req
380. No, Kevin.Copy !req
381. My dad cannot know.Copy !req
382. Have you ever seenCopy !req
383. The Godfather?Copy !req
384. If my dad ever found outCopy !req
385. what Nick did—Copy !req
386. What? He'd putCopy !req
387. a horse's head in Nick's bed?Copy !req
388. Worse, he'd put Nick's head inCopy !req
389. Mr. and Mrs. St. Clair's bed.Copy !req
390. I don't want his bloodCopy !req
391. on my dad's hands or on mine.Copy !req
392. - Veronica, I...Copy !req
393. - Don't even try,Copy !req
394. Benedict Betty.Copy !req
395. Chill, Kevin.Copy !req
396. She's not worth it.Copy !req
397. I've doneCopy !req
398. everything you've asked.Copy !req
399. Why can't you leave meCopy !req
400. the hell alone?Copy !req
401. Because we're not finished.Copy !req
402. I spared Nick's life.Copy !req
403. Because of me, you don'tCopy !req
404. have his blood on your hands.Copy !req
405. If you don't help me,Copy !req
406. you'll be responsibleCopy !req
407. for far worse.Copy !req
408. Riverdale's streetsCopy !req
409. will run red.Copy !req
410. Help you how?Copy !req
411. While Keller and his menCopy !req
412. hunt for low-level dealers,Copy !req
413. we will go afterCopy !req
414. the real sinner,Copy !req
415. the drug maker,Copy !req
416. someone who hidesCopy !req
417. behind a name,Copy !req
418. the Sugar Man.Copy !req
419. A corrupter of childrenCopy !req
420. who deserves swift,Copy !req
421. brutal justice.Copy !req
422. The fact thatCopy !req
423. you're asking me to find himCopy !req
424. means that you can't.Copy !req
425. I'm a schoolCopy !req
426. newspaper reporter.Copy !req
427. Who also happens to be friendsCopy !req
428. with the daughter of theCopy !req
429. Sugar Man's former supplier.Copy !req
430. Clifford Blossom.Copy !req
431. I'd start there.Copy !req
432. And if I find him,Copy !req
433. what will you do to him?Copy !req
434. Don't ask questionsCopy !req
435. you don't wantCopy !req
436. the answers to, Betty.Copy !req
437. Bring me the identityCopy !req
438. of the Sugar ManCopy !req
439. and I will put down my sword.Copy !req
440. And if I don't? If I refuse?Copy !req
441. Someone will be purified.Copy !req
442. Don't test me on that.Copy !req
443. - Jughead, calm down.Copy !req
444. - Calm down?Copy !req
445. Archie, RiverdaleCopy !req
446. just became a police state.Copy !req
447. McCoy's convincedCopy !req
448. the Serpents are the onesCopy !req
449. dealing Jingle Jangle.Copy !req
450. Serpents don't dealCopy !req
451. that stuff.Copy !req
452. - The Ghoulies do.Copy !req
453. - So tell Mayor McCoy that.Copy !req
454. Oh, Mayor McCoy.Copy !req
455. Do you mean the McCoy thatCopy !req
456. just arrested all my friendsCopy !req
457. for no reason?Copy !req
458. What do you careCopy !req
459. anyway, man?Copy !req
460. I thought you and BettyCopy !req
461. wanted nothing to do with me.Copy !req
462. - Right?Copy !req
463. - Look, I'm sorryCopy !req
464. about what happenedCopy !req
465. and how it happened.Copy !req
466. And as for Betty,Copy !req
467. you should maybe talk to her.Copy !req
468. I gotta go.Copy !req

540. Where are we?Copy !req
541. You're in my house.Copy !req
542. It's the House of the Dead.Copy !req
543. Well, I'm sorry,Copy !req
544. who the hell are you?Copy !req
545. Take it easy, Jughead.Copy !req
546. Malachai speaksCopy !req
547. for the Ghoulies.Copy !req
548. With the heat on us andCopy !req
549. our ranks depleted,Copy !req
550. our tribes need to unite.Copy !req
551. And that's gonna beCopy !req
552. easier to doCopy !req
553. if you endorseCopy !req
554. this partnership.Copy !req
555. - Me?Copy !req
556. - You're FP's son.Copy !req
557. That carries weight,Copy !req
558. especially withCopy !req
559. our younger members.Copy !req
560. Tall Boy, they're the reasonCopy !req
561. Southside was even raided.Copy !req
562. Them and their Jingle Jangle.Copy !req
563. Chaos is how we thrive.Copy !req
564. You better get used to it.Copy !req
565. Are you seriouslyCopy !req
566. going to do this to my dad?Copy !req
567. You're supposed to beCopy !req
568. his right-hand.Copy !req
569. The NorthsideCopy !req
570. declared war today.Copy !req
571. Your old manCopy !req
572. ain't here to call the shots.Copy !req
573. And, yeah, I'm his right-hand.Copy !req
574. That makes me de facto leader,Copy !req
575. here and now, so...Copy !req
576. Things are changing, Jones.Copy !req
577. Either you change with them,Copy !req
578. or suffer the consequences.Copy !req
579. Evolve or die, baby.Copy !req
580. Evolve or die.Copy !req
581. Sheriff Keller?Copy !req
582. The station saidCopy !req
583. you might be here.Copy !req
584. I'm off the clock, Betty.Copy !req
585. Just a few questions,Copy !req
586. for a Blue and Gold storyCopy !req
587. on Jingle Jangle.Copy !req
588. All right.Copy !req
589. One question, soCopy !req
590. you better make it good.Copy !req
591. Have you ever heard of aCopy !req
592. dealer called the Sugar Man?Copy !req
593. Heard of him...Copy !req
594. Oh, I know him.Copy !req
595. You know him.Copy !req
596. The Sugar Man, the Maple Man,Copy !req
597. the Delivery Man.Copy !req
598. I mean, he's had aboutCopy !req
599. a million different names.Copy !req
600. But it was always justCopy !req
601. one man.Copy !req
602. Clifford Blossom.Copy !req
603. But he's dead.Copy !req
604. So, how was there stillCopy !req
605. a supply of Jingle Jangle?Copy !req
606. Jingle JangleCopy !req
607. didn't hit the streetsCopy !req
608. until after Clifford died.Copy !req
609. Truth is, anybody could beCopy !req
610. the supplier now.Copy !req
611. Good night, Betty.Copy !req
612. Drafting your nextCopy !req
613. savage take-down?Copy !req
614. I don't expect youCopy !req
615. to believe me,Copy !req
616. but I didn't meanCopy !req
617. what I said.Copy !req
618. - There's no sane excuse.Copy !req
619. - No. There isn't.Copy !req
620. So, tell me, Bee...Copy !req
621. What's the insane excuse?Copy !req
622. So, to recap...Copy !req
623. You're talking toCopy !req
624. a serial killer on the regCopy !req
625. and he's beenCopy !req
626. puppet-mastering you?Copy !req
627. I'll never forgive myselfCopy !req
628. for what I did, Vee.Copy !req
629. To you, to Jug, to my mom,Copy !req
630. hell, even to Nick St. Clair.Copy !req
631. Girl, I would'veCopy !req
632. given Nick's nameCopy !req
633. and then happilyCopy !req
634. treated myself to a facial.Copy !req
635. I still might... But, yes.Copy !req
636. You're in a toxic relationshipCopy !req
637. with the Black Hood,Copy !req
638. and you need to break up.Copy !req
639. Or I could turnCopy !req
640. the tables on him, Vee.Copy !req
641. He says he'll go awayCopy !req
642. if I do one last thing...Copy !req
643. Find out who's behindCopy !req
644. the Jingle Jangle,Copy !req
645. some creepCopy !req
646. called the Sugar Man.Copy !req
647. Okay, so what's the problem?Copy !req
648. If the Sugar Man exists,Copy !req
649. and I find out who he is,Copy !req
650. I can't just give up his name.Copy !req
651. The Black Hood would kill him.Copy !req
652. And drug dealer or not,Copy !req
653. he's still a human being.Copy !req
654. - Barely.Copy !req
655. - I'm so close, Vee.Copy !req
656. Will you help?Copy !req
657. I'm in.Copy !req
658. This isn't an allianceCopy !req
659. with the Ghoulies,Copy !req
660. this is a hostile takeover.Copy !req
661. Oh, God.Copy !req
662. Who knows how long Tall BoyCopy !req
663. has beenCopy !req
664. planning on betraying us.Copy !req
665. Maybe I stall, just untilCopy !req
666. Sweet Pea and Toni get out.Copy !req
667. I just hopeCopy !req
668. they'd rather go to warCopy !req
669. with the GhouliesCopy !req
670. than start...Copy !req
671. - Jughead.Copy !req
672. - ... dealing Jingle Jangle.Copy !req
673. You joined the SerpentsCopy !req
674. to keep the peace.Copy !req
675. My dad would neverCopy !req
676. sit back and let this happen.Copy !req
677. So, neither will I.Copy !req
678. So, unless you haveCopy !req
679. any better ideas.Copy !req
680. Not me.Copy !req
681. But, dude, what you just said.Copy !req
682. Start fromCopy !req
683. the beginning, boys.Copy !req
684. Hey, you can reprimand meCopy !req
685. for joiningCopy !req
686. the Serpents later,Copy !req
687. but if we don't doCopy !req
688. something now,Copy !req
689. there will beCopy !req
690. no more Serpents.Copy !req
691. It'll just be the Ghoulies.Copy !req
692. Ghoulies dress like fops,Copy !req
693. but they're a nasty crew.Copy !req
694. Serpents have survivedCopy !req
695. worse though.Copy !req
696. Much worse.Copy !req
697. The only hitch is, it soundsCopy !req
698. like you're out-manned,Copy !req
699. which means you gottaCopy !req
700. avoid bloodshed at all costs.Copy !req
701. I agree. 100%.Copy !req
702. So outthink 'em.Copy !req
703. This is about territory...Copy !req
704. If there's one thingCopy !req
705. Ghoulies love,Copy !req
706. it's their crazy souped-upCopy !req
707. retro cars and hearses.Copy !req
708. You catchCopy !req
709. my Riverdale drift, boys?Copy !req
710. Challenge themCopy !req
711. to a street race, one on one.Copy !req
712. But keep it on the DL.Copy !req
713. It's illegal,Copy !req
714. it'll get you locked up.Copy !req
715. - Go on.Copy !req
716. - Set the terms of the race.Copy !req
717. Their guy wins,Copy !req
718. the Serpents roll over.Copy !req
719. And if we win,Copy !req
720. the Ghoulies back off.Copy !req
721. Maybe you raise the stakes.Copy !req
722. Whoever wins,Copy !req
723. controls Southside High.Copy !req
724. And we get rid of the GhouliesCopy !req
725. and get ridCopy !req
726. of the Jingle Jangle,Copy !req
727. and get McCoy off our back.Copy !req
728. That's me, that's Jason,Copy !req
729. and that's the Sugar Man.Copy !req
730. Remember?Copy !req
731. You'd tell us talesCopy !req
732. of how he was friendsCopy !req
733. with Daddy?Copy !req
734. We were to stay upCopy !req
735. in our roomsCopy !req
736. whenever he visited Thornhill?Copy !req
737. Was he one ofCopy !req
738. Daddy's business associates?Copy !req
739. Not maple syrup, butCopy !req
740. the other kind of business?Copy !req
741. After all you keptCopy !req
742. from me about Daddy,Copy !req
743. about Jason's death,Copy !req
744. is this another pieceCopy !req
745. of your cryptic puzzle?Copy !req
746. As usual, Cheryl,Copy !req
747. I have no idea whatCopy !req
748. you're talking about.Copy !req
749. I never told youCopy !req
750. any such stories.Copy !req
751. And as for your father'sCopy !req
752. business dealings,Copy !req
753. you know full well thatCopy !req
754. all his records were eitherCopy !req
755. seized by the policeCopy !req
756. or burned in the fireCopy !req
757. you started!Copy !req
758. Pickens Park?Copy !req
759. More like Needle Park.Copy !req
760. I wouldn't even goCopy !req
761. cruising here.Copy !req
762. Hey, uh, feel freeCopy !req
763. to, you know, pitch in.Copy !req
764. I get you're pretty muchCopy !req
765. Beyonce, but today,Copy !req
766. you're just like us commoners.Copy !req
767. I think your bicepsCopy !req
768. can handle it, Mantle.Copy !req
769. - You trying to get me to flex?Copy !req
770. - Josie...Copy !req
771. You mind if I borrow ReggieCopy !req
772. for a New York minute?Copy !req
773. Please. Take him.Copy !req
774. Love watching meCopy !req
775. walk away, huh?Copy !req
776. What do you want, Veronica?Copy !req
777. We were kind ofCopy !req
778. in the middle of something.Copy !req
779. I want the nameCopy !req
780. of your Jingle Jangle contactCopy !req
781. and I won't takeCopy !req
782. no for an answer.Copy !req
783. Betty, you have to talkCopy !req
784. to Jughead.Copy !req
785. Soon, I promise.Copy !req
786. I just need to take careCopy !req
787. of a few things.Copy !req
788. I'll go out on a limbCopy !req
789. and guess you're Verne.Copy !req
790. You got my stuff?Copy !req
791. I don't takeCopy !req
792. American Excess.Copy !req
793. Will this do?Copy !req
794. My girl and ICopy !req
795. need a reason to live tonight.Copy !req
796. She just broke up with herCopy !req
797. beau. Full spiral. Tragic.Copy !req
798. $150.Copy !req
799. For the record,Copy !req
800. I know you're overcharging me,Copy !req
801. but I'm desperate.Copy !req
802. My complimentsCopy !req
803. to the Sugar Man.Copy !req
804. Did I get it wrong?Copy !req
805. Isn't that the nameCopy !req
806. of the genius behindCopy !req
807. these sweet-treats?Copy !req
808. Have you ever met him?Copy !req
809. What about my change, asshat?Copy !req
810. Our Drugstore CowboyCopy !req
811. should be passing youCopy !req
812. in three, two, one...Copy !req
813. I've got eyes on him.Copy !req
814. Me and my boyCopy !req
815. want to challengeCopy !req
816. you to a race.Copy !req
817. If we win,Copy !req
818. Serpents remain autonomousCopy !req
819. and you quit dealingCopy !req
820. at Southside High.Copy !req
821. And if we win?Copy !req
822. We fold,Copy !req
823. and you will continueCopy !req
824. polluting the SouthsideCopy !req
825. with your littleCopy !req
826. straws of death.Copy !req
827. So, the mighty SerpentCopy !req
828. Prince has some stones,Copy !req
829. but not much else.Copy !req
830. So unless Your HighnessCopy !req
831. wants to put some of Daddy'sCopy !req
832. territory out on the table,Copy !req
833. I got no reasonCopy !req
834. to agree to this race.Copy !req
835. They were following me,Copy !req
836. tried to get in the garage.Copy !req
837. - Veronica?Copy !req
838. - Betty?Copy !req
839. - Jughead.Copy !req
840. - Archie?Copy !req
841. What are you doing here?Copy !req
842. Wait, so,Copy !req
843. these are your bitches?Copy !req
844. I begCopy !req
845. your misogynistic pardon.Copy !req
846. Why don't you takeCopy !req
847. your skanks and getCopy !req
848. the hell out of here.Copy !req
849. Until you make meCopy !req
850. a better offer,Copy !req
851. there'll be no race.Copy !req
852. If you win,Copy !req
853. we'll give youCopy !req
854. the Whyte Wyrm.Copy !req
855. You can expandCopy !req
856. your drug-dealing horizons,Copy !req
857. and upgradeCopy !req
858. out of this literal hellhole.Copy !req
859. We'll take the Wyrm,Copy !req
860. and Sunnyside Trailer Park.Copy !req
861. Two turkey burgersCopy !req
862. and a Cobb salad to go.Copy !req
863. - Sharon.Copy !req
864. - Cheryl!Copy !req
865. What are you stillCopy !req
866. doing in town, Nick?Copy !req
867. Pickin' up some fuelCopy !req
868. for the trip home.Copy !req
869. - How are you?Copy !req
870. - How am I?Copy !req
871. How am I?Copy !req
872. You roofied me.Copy !req
873. You tried to rape me.Copy !req
874. I don't thinkCopy !req
875. that's what happened.Copy !req
876. You're aCopy !req
877. Less Than Zero monster.Copy !req
878. At least I'm notCopy !req
879. a desperate tartCopy !req
880. from a truck-stop town, hun.Copy !req
881. Let's not distortCopy !req
882. reality to cover yourCopy !req
883. morning-after shame.Copy !req
884. You were high,Copy !req
885. half-naked, and begging for it.Copy !req
886. Call your lawyer.Copy !req
887. Seeing as you're suchCopy !req
888. an unrepentant spore,Copy !req
889. I think I'll beCopy !req
890. pressing charges after all.Copy !req
891. Sweetie, did no oneCopy !req
892. tell you aboutCopy !req
893. the arrangementCopy !req
894. my parents madeCopy !req
895. with your cobra-like mother?Copy !req
896. You're not gonnaCopy !req
897. be saying anythingCopy !req
898. about that night to anyone.Copy !req
899. After all,Copy !req
900. there's a reasonCopy !req
901. it's called hush-money.Copy !req
902. For the lady's meal as well.Copy !req
903. God bless Reggie MantleCopy !req
904. and his inferiority complex.Copy !req
905. His car's a lot like him,Copy !req
906. it's beautiful to look at, butCopy !req
907. not much goin' onCopy !req
908. under the hood.Copy !req
909. Um, crescent wrench, please.Copy !req
910. Thank you.Copy !req
911. This is what Serpents doCopy !req
912. for fun, huh?Copy !req
913. Street race rival gangs?Copy !req
914. Just go aheadCopy !req
915. and say it, Betty.Copy !req
916. You said you weren'tCopy !req
917. gonna join them, Jug.Copy !req
918. And youCopy !req
919. said you loved me,Copy !req
920. and then you dumped me,Copy !req
921. via Archie,Copy !req
922. which, by the way,Copy !req
923. way worse than via text.Copy !req
924. I'm sorry, Jughead.Copy !req
925. It won't make any sense.Copy !req
926. But everything around usCopy !req
927. was imploding,Copy !req
928. and I did it to protect you.Copy !req
929. Betty, you did the one thingCopy !req
930. that could actually hurt me.Copy !req
931. I will explain everythingCopy !req
932. to you, Jug. I will.Copy !req
933. But right now, I just wantCopy !req
934. to get you through this race.Copy !req
935. I hadCopy !req
936. the most fascinating chatCopy !req
937. with Nick St. Clair today.Copy !req
938. Then I went rummagingCopy !req
939. around your bedroomCopy !req
940. till I found this.Copy !req
941. Before you startCopy !req
942. casting stones,Copy !req
943. you shouldn't...Copy !req
944. You should knowCopy !req
945. that the LodgesCopy !req
946. are still accepting moneyCopy !req
947. from the St. ClairsCopy !req
948. for their precious SoDaleCopy !req
949. construction.Copy !req
950. I don't care about them,Copy !req
951. I care about my mother.Copy !req
952. You would defend DaddyCopy !req
953. even afterCopy !req
954. he murdered your son.Copy !req
955. But you won'tCopy !req
956. stand up for me,Copy !req
957. not even againstCopy !req
958. my would-be rapist.Copy !req
959. Don't be absurd, Cheryl.Copy !req
960. Give me that check.Copy !req
961. Not until you tell meCopy !req
962. the truth about the Sugar Man.Copy !req
963. He exists, Mother.Copy !req
964. We both know it.Copy !req
965. He worked with Daddy.Copy !req
966. - Your father—Copy !req
967. - Was an awful human beingCopy !req
968. and thank God he's dead.Copy !req
969. But I'm alive,Copy !req
970. and I'm begging you,Copy !req
971. for once in your life,Copy !req
972. be honest with me.Copy !req
973. Care about me more.Copy !req
974. It's simple.Copy !req
975. The St. Clairs boughtCopy !req
976. your silence.Copy !req
977. But you're not getting paidCopy !req
978. until I hear the truth.Copy !req
979. What can I sayCopy !req
980. or do,Copy !req
981. to get you to stayCopy !req
982. here with meCopy !req
983. instead of goingCopy !req
984. to that dangerous,Copy !req
985. dumb, possibly deadlyCopy !req
986. street race?Copy !req
987. Don't worry, Ronnie,Copy !req
988. I have a plan.Copy !req
989. You know, kind of likeCopy !req
990. the plan you and Betty hadCopy !req
991. when you snuck intoCopy !req
992. the Ghoulie headquarters.Copy !req
993. Touché.Copy !req
994. One that hopefullyCopy !req
995. keeps everyone alive.Copy !req
996. Cheryl?Copy !req
997. What? Slow down.Copy !req
998. They what?Copy !req
999. Are you still doingCopy !req
1000. business with the St. Clairs,Copy !req
1001. letting them investCopy !req
1002. in SoDale after what Nick did?Copy !req
1003. To be fair,Copy !req
1004. Cheryl's accusations—Copy !req
1005. Cheryl's telling the truth.Copy !req
1006. I know because NickCopy !req
1007. tried to do it to me.Copy !req
1008. Nick St. ClairCopy !req
1009. - hurt you?Copy !req
1010. - Tried to.Copy !req
1011. But I stopped himCopy !req
1012. before he went too farCopy !req
1013. and then the next nightCopy !req
1014. he went after Cheryl.Copy !req
1015. Veronica, why didn'tCopy !req
1016. you say something?Copy !req
1017. I didn't have any proof.Copy !req
1018. And Nick has done itCopy !req
1019. before, I'm sure of it.Copy !req
1020. Veronica, as GodCopy !req
1021. is my witness,Copy !req
1022. I swear to you—Copy !req
1023. Under no circumstancesCopy !req
1024. will we take a pennyCopy !req
1025. from that family.Copy !req
1026. All right!Copy !req
1027. Let's do this.Copy !req
1028. Not the kind of drag raceCopy !req
1029. I ever imagined myselfCopy !req
1030. going to,Copy !req
1031. but at least the guysCopy !req
1032. are hot.Copy !req
1033. Don't worry, Ronnie,Copy !req
1034. we got this.Copy !req
1035. Just make it back to me.Copy !req
1036. Preferably in one piece,Copy !req
1037. Archiekins.Copy !req
1038. Before you get in the car,Copy !req
1039. I need you to know.Copy !req
1040. I never stoppedCopy !req
1041. loving you, Jug.Copy !req
1042. I'm not sure I can.Copy !req
1043. Also remember,Copy !req
1044. don't ride the clutch,Copy !req
1045. and don't let it slipCopy !req
1046. between gear shifts, okay?Copy !req
1047. You're an enigma, Cooper.Copy !req
1048. Let's do it.Copy !req
1049. Get these carsCopy !req
1050. up on the road.Copy !req
1051. Race over Herk Harvey BridgeCopy !req
1052. to Dead Man's curve,Copy !req
1053. first one back here wins.Copy !req
1054. - Uh, I usually do the honors.Copy !req
1055. - Not today, Cha-Cha!Copy !req
1056. I was born for this moment.Copy !req
1057. Engines warm and ready,Copy !req
1058. - gentlemen?Copy !req
1059. Jug, we're coming upCopy !req
1060. to the bridge.Copy !req
1061. I know, I got this.Copy !req
1062. It's too narrowCopy !req
1063. for both of us, Jughead.Copy !req
1064. Jug, we should abort.Copy !req
1065. And let them win?Copy !req
