1. Previously on
Riverdale...
Copy !req
2. Ben and I, we thought it was just a game.
But it's not. It's so much more.
Copy !req
3. He's real.
The Gargoyle King.
Copy !req
4. Dilton...
Copy !req
5. Ben! Hey.
Copy !req
6. Framing Archie for murder?
Copy !req
7. Conspiring to keep
him locked away?
Copy !req
8. You don't have
a daughter anymore.
Copy !req
9. We could start our
own version of the Farm.
Copy !req
10. You're actually buying this
Copy !req
11. Farm crap that some huckster named
Edgar Evernever is selling you?
Copy !req
12. Oh, my God. Betty!
Copy !req
13. I didn't kill anyone.
But I could have.
Copy !req
14. I have to
take responsibility for that.
Copy !req
15. I can't put you and everyone
else through this again.
Copy !req
16. I'll take the deal.
Copy !req
17. Your Honor, I'm guilty.
Copy !req
18. We've all felt it.
Copy !req
19. On the first day
of a new school year.
Copy !req
20. Butterflies in the stomach.
Copy !req
21. We've all looked around
and wondered...
Copy !req
22. Where am I gonna fit in here?
Copy !req
23. Who am I gonna
sit with at lunch?
Copy !req
24. Will I even
make it till lunch?
Copy !req
25. Multiply that by a thousand,
Copy !req
26. and that's how Archie Andrews
felt as he was being "processed"
Copy !req
27. at the Leopold and Loeb
Juvenile Detention Center.
Copy !req
28. Andrews.
Copy !req
29. Warden wants
to see you. Let's go.
Copy !req
30. It's Shakespeare.
Do you know what it means?
Copy !req
31. No, sir.
Copy !req
32. It means you're alone,
Copy !req
33. and you have no one
to blame but yourself.
Copy !req
34. I read your file.
Copy !req
35. Besides killing
that boy at Shadow Lake,
Copy !req
36. I'm told you have
an affinity for music.
Copy !req
37. We have a music room.
Copy !req
38. No one uses it,
but it's there.
Copy !req
39. I keep an orderly house,
Mr. Andrews.
Copy !req
40. Respect that
and we'll get on just fine.
Copy !req
41. You understand?
Copy !req
42. Yes, sir.
Copy !req
43. I just got off the phone with
the warden at juvenile hall.
Copy !req
44. He says that Archie's been processed.
He's okay.
Copy !req
45. Thank God.
Copy !req
46. Yeah. I got a line
on those three thugs
Copy !req
47. that gave false
testimony against him.
Copy !req
48. I'm friends with the sheriff
over at Shadow County.
Copy !req
49. They found the remains of a
campfire in the deep woods.
Copy !req
50. Archie's in jail,
and these cretins are basically camping.
Copy !req
51. Not for long.
We'll make damn sure of that.
Copy !req
52. Meanwhile, I'll keep the home
fires burning at Riverdale High,
Copy !req
53. so everyone knows
my Archiekins
Copy !req
54. will be back in time
for homecoming
Copy !req
55. and everything will be
just as he left it.
Copy !req
56. Dr. Patel kept Betty
overnight for observation,
Copy !req
57. but it was just a precaution.
Copy !req
58. Well, did he say
what caused the seizure?
Copy !req
59. They ran tests,
Copy !req
60. but he suspects it's just
good old-fashioned stress.
Copy !req
61. Oh, Betty.
Copy !req
62. I was up all night
with the twins.
Copy !req
63. We were so worried about you.
Copy !req
64. - You were worried about me?
- Hmm?
Copy !req
65. What about Juniper and Dagwood?
Are they all right?
Copy !req
66. Okay, here we go again.
Copy !req
67. Juniper and Dagwood
are napping.
Copy !req
68. They're fine.
Why wouldn't they be?
Copy !req
69. Um, because
I saw you and Mom
Copy !req
70. throw the twins into
a giant bonfire last night.
Copy !req
71. All right, that's enough.
Copy !req
72. The only thing
burning last night
Copy !req
73. was the hibachi
in the backyard.
Copy !req
74. We were making skewers
with a few friends.
Copy !req
75. - From the Farm?
- Yeah, as a matter of fact.
Copy !req
76. You must have just had a hallucination
while you had the seizure.
Copy !req
77. It was so real.
Copy !req
78. Sweetheart.
Copy !req
79. Oh, my God, Dilton is dead?
Copy !req
80. Yeah.
Copy !req
81. And Ben from the drive-in,
he's barely hanging on.
Copy !req
82. Doctors don't know when
or if he's even gonna wake up.
Copy !req
83. Sheriff Minetta
asked me to keep
Copy !req
84. the whole thing hush-hush
for the family's sake.
Copy !req
85. But Betty,
what I saw was...
Copy !req
86. What, Jug?
Copy !req
87. It was like a ritual site.
Copy !req
88. Their lips were blue.
Copy !req
89. There were these chalices that were
filled with poison or something.
Copy !req
90. Animal bones
were in a circle.
Copy !req
91. The tree
had markings on it.
Copy !req
92. There was a winged totem
with a skull and branches.
Copy !req
93. So, was it a murder
or a suicide pact gone wrong?
Copy !req
94. I have no idea.
I saw Ben and Dilton.
Copy !req
95. They were playing
this weird game at Pop's.
Copy !req
96. Dilton was raving about someone
called the Gargoyle King.
Copy !req
97. I was also thinking that
Copy !req
98. maybe you and I could
investigate this together,
Copy !req
99. for old times' sake.
Copy !req
100. Or at least until we catch a
new lead with Archie's case.
Copy !req
101. I like that idea.
Copy !req
102. I'll try to see if Dr. Curdle can
get us into the coroner's office.
Copy !req
103. Have more romantic
words ever been spoken?
Copy !req
104. No.
Copy !req
105. You're bunking with Mad Dog.
Copy !req
106. Hey.
Copy !req
107. I'm Archie.
You're Mad Dog, right?
Copy !req
108. How long you been in?
Copy !req
109. - Listen, bro, since we're gonna be cellmates...
- Nice shoes.
Copy !req
110. I'd keep 'em tied real tight.
Copy !req
111. Mr. Weatherbee,
Copy !req
112. as Archie's girlfriend
and former running-mate,
Copy !req
113. I just wanna let you know
that I'll be stepping in
Copy !req
114. as interim
student body president.
Copy !req
115. I'm sorry, Miss Lodge,
but someone else has already petitioned
Copy !req
116. to be president
just this morning.
Copy !req
117. What? Who did?
Copy !req
118. Cheryl, what the hell
do you think you're doing,
Copy !req
119. trying to steal
Archie's presidency?
Copy !req
120. Who would you have lead us through
the super dark times of junior year?
Copy !req
121. Ethel Muggs?
Copy !req
122. I saw the poor girl earlier.
Copy !req
123. She was fuguing about some winged
creature that was after her.
Copy !req
124. Actually, I was thinking
I'd keep Archie's seat warm.
Copy !req
125. Why?
Copy !req
126. When JFK was shot,
Jackie O didn't become president.
Copy !req
127. Lyndon B. Johnson did.
Copy !req
128. And then he
lead us into Vietnam.
Copy !req
129. I'm just saying.
Copy !req
130. Her man's in the big house, Cheryl.
Give her a break.
Copy !req
131. I get it, and I sympathize...
Copy !req
132. Up to a point.
Copy !req
133. But let's be reals, Veronica.
Copy !req
134. I need this presidency for my college
applications a lot more than Archie does.
Copy !req
135. You guys mind if I sit?
Copy !req
136. I'm Slash.
Copy !req
137. Who gave you that ink?
Looks fresh.
Copy !req
138. FP Jones did.
Copy !req
139. His son, Jughead,
made me a Serpent.
Copy !req
140. Said I could
hang out with you guys.
Copy !req
141. You're no Serpent, Archie.
Copy !req
142. Joaquin?
Copy !req
143. What the hell
are you doing in juvie?
Copy !req
144. Didn't you hear?
Copy !req
145. I came to town to
help Fangs escape,
Copy !req
146. stuck around,
Copy !req
147. got hauled in
during riot night.
Copy !req
148. I know this guy, Slash.
Copy !req
149. He's Mr. Clean-Cut
All-American.
Copy !req
150. You're Jughead's pal,
not a Serpent.
Copy !req
151. You have to earn
our trust and protection
Copy !req
152. with a test of loyalty.
Copy !req
153. See that Ghoulie over there?
Copy !req
154. I want you to go up to him
Copy !req
155. and shiv him.
Copy !req
156. Don't worry about the guards.
Copy !req
157. We pay them
to turn a blind eye.
Copy !req
158. Do that,
Copy !req
159. and then we'll
have your back, huh?
Copy !req
160. You're kidding, right?
Copy !req
161. Not gonna happen, bro.
Copy !req
162. I don't need
your protection that bad.
Copy !req
163. Nice shoes.
Copy !req
164. Dr. Curdle?
Copy !req
165. Oh, you're not...
Copy !req
166. I'm his son.
Copy !req
167. We spoke
over the phone earlier.
Copy !req
168. I took over
after my father passed away.
Copy !req
169. - Oh, I'm sorry.
- Do you have the money?
Copy !req
170. The toxicology report revealed lethal
levels of cyanide in Mr. Doiley's blood.
Copy !req
171. I surmise the surviving boy didn't
drink enough to finish the job.
Copy !req
172. Dr. Curdle,
if you had to guess,
Copy !req
173. murder or suicide?
Copy !req
174. Well, the body
did show signs of stress.
Copy !req
175. Three symbols
carved out on his back.
Copy !req
176. Runic, I'd say.
Copy !req
177. Would you mind
if I got a shot of those?
Copy !req
178. What caused,
uh, the blue lips?
Copy !req
179. The cyanide was mixed into a
sugary drink called Fresh-Aid.
Copy !req
180. Blueberry flavored.
Copy !req
181. There's something
dimly familiar about this.
Copy !req
182. But you asked me before if I
thought this was murder or suicide.
Copy !req
183. I'm not sure what it is, but...
Copy !req
184. whatever it is, it's darker than
what happened to Jason Blossom,
Copy !req
185. or what the Black Hood did.
Copy !req
186. No, what we're
looking at here,
Copy !req
187. I believe,
is the true face of evil.
Copy !req
188. What's up, guys?
Copy !req
189. You don't remember us?
Copy !req
190. Should I?
Have we met before?
Copy !req
191. We were at the drag race the
day you called the cops on us.
Copy !req
192. We're in here
because of you.
Copy !req
193. Ghoulies.
Copy !req
194. Crap.
Copy !req
195. Look, guys, I don't want
any trouble. I'm sorry.
Copy !req
196. Neither do we.
We just want your shoes.
Copy !req
197. What?
Copy !req
198. Don't touch his face.
Copy !req
199. Why are you sitting that way?
Copy !req
200. I'm just a little sore,
Ronnie, that's all.
Copy !req
201. Sore from what?
Copy !req
202. Working out.
There's an amazing gym here.
Copy !req
203. Uh-huh.
Copy !req
204. And, uh,
where are your shoes?
Copy !req
205. Uh, the warden took them
from me when I got here.
Copy !req
206. Along with all
my other clothes.
Copy !req
207. That doesn't make any sense.
Copy !req
208. Ronnie.
Talk to me about school.
Copy !req
209. What am I missing?
How's the new speakeasy coming along?
Copy !req
210. It's coming.
Copy !req
211. What's it feel like being
president in my place?
Copy !req
212. Hi, I'm checking in on the
status of a friend of mine.
Copy !req
213. Ben Button?
Copy !req
214. Oh, wait, he's out of the ICU?
That's great.
Copy !req
215. Uh, what time are
your visiting hours?
Copy !req
216. Uh, thank you.
Copy !req
217. Hi. I'm Evelyn.
And you're Betty Cooper.
Copy !req
218. I'm sorry, do I know you?
Copy !req
219. Well, not exactly.
Copy !req
220. We almost met through
your mom and your sister.
Copy !req
221. They're studying with my dad.
Copy !req
222. Edgar Evernever.
Copy !req
223. Yeah. That's right.
Copy !req
224. Anyway, I go to
school here now,
Copy !req
225. so I just wanted
to say hi,
Copy !req
226. and to let you know
that I won't tell anyone
Copy !req
227. about what
happened the other night.
Copy !req
228. What are you talking about?
Copy !req
229. Well, your seizure, of course.
Copy !req
230. Wait, sorry, wait, you...
you were there?
Copy !req
231. Yeah, your mom invited
us over for a cookout
Copy !req
232. and to burn
a few of her things.
Copy !req
233. So, how are you feeling?
Copy !req
234. Uh...
Copy !req
235. Um...
Copy !req
236. Uh, you know what, Evelyn?
I have to go.
Copy !req
237. I have to visit a friend
in the hospital, so...
Copy !req
238. Yeah, no worries.
I totally understand.
Copy !req
239. Dude, what are you doing?
Copy !req
240. What we've been
doing all summer.
Copy !req
241. I thought we could
sneak off to the boiler room.
Copy !req
242. My dad is right over there.
Copy !req
243. Why?
Copy !req
244. He's the new RROTC instructor,
and he's making me sign up.
Copy !req
245. So if he's going to be around school,
we have to take it easy.
Copy !req
246. Hey, Cadet Mason,
on time is late.
Copy !req
247. Let's go. Room 302.
Copy !req
248. Talk to you later, Kev.
Copy !req
249. Veronica!
Copy !req
250. Oh, that's right,
you work here now.
Copy !req
251. I'll have a cherry phosphate
and curly fries. Girls?
Copy !req
252. I don't work at Pop's, Cheryl.
I own it.
Copy !req
253. And as of this moment,
you're no longer welcome here.
Copy !req
254. You can't discriminate
against someone
Copy !req
255. because they're
better-looking than you.
Copy !req
256. Cheryl, you're
acting like trash,
Copy !req
257. and I don't want
to get a citation.
Copy !req
258. Vixens, leave us be.
Copy !req
259. Now, then.
Copy !req
260. What are you
really mad about?
Copy !req
261. Because it can't be that I'm making
a play for student body president.
Copy !req
262. Actually, Cheryl,
that's exactly why I'm mad.
Copy !req
263. I made a promise to Archie
that when he gets out,
Copy !req
264. I'll have everything in place
waiting for him.
Copy !req
265. And that includes
this stupid presidency.
Copy !req
266. Just a suggestion,
Copy !req
267. but maybe you should
channel that rage
Copy !req
268. into something
more productive.
Copy !req
269. Like getting
your boyfriend sprung.
Copy !req
270. There's an organization
called the Innocence Project.
Copy !req
271. I looked into it when I was
accused of Jay-Jay's murder.
Copy !req
272. Maybe you
should check it out.
Copy !req
273. A little food for thought.
Copy !req
274. Speaking of food,
Copy !req
275. cancel my order.
I'm going to TGI Thursdays.
Copy !req
276. Hi, Mrs. Button.
Copy !req
277. We just wanted
to see how Ben was doing.
Copy !req
278. How do you know my Ben?
Copy !req
279. Uh, from school.
Copy !req
280. And he and I used to work
at the Twilight Drive-In.
Copy !req
281. Oh.
Copy !req
282. How's he doing?
Copy !req
283. He's stabilized,
but he hasn't woken up yet.
Copy !req
284. Do you know what happened
in the woods, Mrs. Button?
Copy !req
285. No. Ben's always been a bit of an odd duck,
you could say.
Copy !req
286. Kept to himself.
Copy !req
287. Especially after his piano
teacher was murdered.
Copy !req
288. But this summer,
he became friends with...
Copy !req
289. - Dilton Doiley.
- That's right.
Copy !req
290. It's like he became
a different person.
Copy !req
291. Secretive, sneaking out
at all hours,
Copy !req
292. having these
horrible nightmares.
Copy !req
293. Mrs. Button.
Copy !req
294. Do you know what this is
or how it got here?
Copy !req
295. Maybe that
nice girl left it.
Copy !req
296. Someone else
came to visit Ben?
Copy !req
297. A-Another friend from school.
Copy !req
298. I don't remember her name.
She wore a bow in her hair.
Copy !req
299. Jughead. Betty.
Copy !req
300. Look, I don't care how Keller
ran things when he was sheriff,
Copy !req
301. but I won't let
a couple of teenagers
Copy !req
302. compromise an active
murder investigation.
Copy !req
303. If this is an active
murder investigation,
Copy !req
304. you might wanna start by letting
the rest of the town know.
Copy !req
305. Sheriff Minetta?
Copy !req
306. What, Henderson?
Copy !req
307. An Adventure Scout's
parents called.
Copy !req
308. - They haven't seen him in two days.
- What?
Copy !req
309. We've got
a missing kid, Sheriff,
Copy !req
310. and he was a part
of Dilton Doiley's troop.
Copy !req
311. Madam Mayor?
Copy !req
312. - Wait. Why are you not in school?
- I'm on my way,
Copy !req
313. but this couldn't wait.
Copy !req
314. I'm starting a chapter
Copy !req
315. of the Innocence Project
here in Riverdale.
Copy !req
316. And with a letter
of support from Town Hall,
Copy !req
317. I can cut through
all that silly red tape.
Copy !req
318. I told you,
I cannot get in the middle
Copy !req
319. of this war between
you and your father.
Copy !req
320. But I'm not here as your daughter.
I'm here as a citizen.
Copy !req
321. One of your constituents
sits in juvenile detention,
Copy !req
322. wrongfully convicted.
Copy !req
323. And I intend
to get him acquitted.
Copy !req
324. Your endorsement could help
sway a lot of dubious minds.
Copy !req
325. Please, Mom.
Copy !req
326. Fine.
Copy !req
327. - I'll have Gloria draft the letter.
- Wonderful.
Copy !req
328. Oh, and I'm also
accepting donations.
Copy !req
329. Hi, Ethel.
Copy !req
330. Hey, does this look
familiar to you?
Copy !req
331. Where did you get that?
Copy !req
332. Ben's hospital room.
Copy !req
333. What were you doing there?
Copy !req
334. I don't have to tell you anything,
okay, you're not the police.
Copy !req
335. Ethel, wait.
Copy !req
336. We're just trying
to figure out what happened
Copy !req
337. to Ben and Dilton
and the missing Scout.
Copy !req
338. - Is this the Gargoyle King?
- How do you know about that?
Copy !req
339. Dilton started to tell me,
but he only got so far.
Copy !req
340. So, is it?
Copy !req
341. No. No, it's the opposite.
Copy !req
342. I made that talisman to...
Copy !req
343. To protect Ben.
Copy !req
344. How do you even know Ben?
Copy !req
345. He's my boyfriend.
Copy !req
346. I've never
seen you two together.
Copy !req
347. We started dating
this summer.
Copy !req
348. And we spent all
our time in the bunker, so...
Copy !req
349. What bunker?
Copy !req
350. Never mind.
- Ethel, just...
Copy !req
351. What bunker?
Copy !req
352. Dilton's. In the woods.
Copy !req
353. Dilton Doiley has a secret
bunker in the woods?
Copy !req
354. It was our secret spot.
Copy !req
355. And Dilton's too.
Copy !req
356. Can you at least
just tell us where it is?
Copy !req
357. I mean, I can't.
It's too hard to describe.
Copy !req
358. Then can you
show us where it is?
Copy !req
359. Ethel, it's either us
or Sheriff Minetta.
Copy !req
360. Okay, fine, but you have
to keep it a secret.
Copy !req
361. - Sure.
- Of course.
Copy !req
362. And we have to go at night,
so nobody can see us.
Copy !req
363. Do you guys know
where Fox Footbridge is?
Copy !req
364. I tried to warn you.
Copy !req
365. Yeah.
Copy !req
366. Apparently, the Ghoulies
really like sneakers.
Copy !req
367. You're a Serpent.
Copy !req
368. Why didn't they
look out for you?
Copy !req
369. Because I wouldn't
shiv a Ghoulie.
Copy !req
370. How come?
Copy !req
371. Because that's not who I am.
Copy !req
372. Maybe not yet,
Copy !req
373. but you will be soon.
Copy !req
374. The moment you set foot in here,
you lost your humanity.
Copy !req
375. You're an animal
in a cage now.
Copy !req
376. And an animal does whatever he
has to do to live, to survive.
Copy !req
377. What do you do, Mad Dog?
Copy !req
378. You're not a Ghoulie,
you're not a Serpent.
Copy !req
379. I doubt anyone in here
messes with you.
Copy !req
380. You have stuff
no other prisoner does.
Copy !req
381. Why?
Copy !req
382. You don't want to know.
Copy !req
383. And trust me,
you don't want to get tapped.
Copy !req
384. Take my advice this time.
Copy !req
385. Be an animal
Copy !req
386. before they kill you like one.
Copy !req
387. What is wrong
with the two of you?
Copy !req
388. - Dad?
- What's goin' on?
Copy !req
389. Sheriff Minetta called. He said...
- Called us both.
Copy !req
390. He said he caught
the two of you
Copy !req
391. snooping around Ben Button's
room at the hospital.
Copy !req
392. Look, Dad, something weird
is going on here.
Copy !req
393. No one wants to talk about it.
Copy !req
394. But Dilton came to me
for help. You were there.
Copy !req
395. I feel like I
owe him something.
Copy !req
396. Boy, you don't
owe him anything.
Copy !req
397. This has nothing
to do with you.
Copy !req
398. And you, Betty.
This is exactly
Copy !req
399. what Dr. Patel
was talking about.
Copy !req
400. You keep this up,
young lady,
Copy !req
401. and you'll have
another seizure.
Copy !req
402. Seizure?
Copy !req
403. Did you have a seizure
and not tell me about it?
Copy !req
404. She most certainly did.
Copy !req
405. And it's because
you keep dragging her
Copy !req
406. into these
murder investigations.
Copy !req
407. You are unbelievable, Mom.
Copy !req
408. - Hey, Betty...
- Ah...
Copy !req
409. - FP, can you please?
- Boy, don't even think about it.
Copy !req
410. We're going home.
Everyone needs to cool off.
Copy !req
411. You really didn't have
to get me anything, Ronnie.
Copy !req
412. Nonsense.
Reggie helped me pick them out.
Copy !req
413. Go on, open it.
Copy !req
414. To replace your other pair.
Copy !req
415. They'll be perfect for your
triumphant strut out of here
Copy !req
416. when the Innocence Project gets
your conviction overturned.
Copy !req
417. They're great, Ronnie. Thanks.
Copy !req
418. Sucks, you could have worn those
fresh kicks to the pep rally.
Copy !req
419. Yeah.
How are the Dogs doin', Reg?
Copy !req
420. Coach Clayton's
running our asses off.
Copy !req
421. The varsity squad's gonna be
tough to beat this year,
Copy !req
422. especially with Moose
anchoring the O-Line.
Copy !req
423. The dude is a straight beast.
Copy !req
424. But we're missing
our star running back.
Copy !req
425. We need you back
on the field, bro.
Copy !req
426. Is he for real?
Copy !req
427. Yo, Joaquin, it's your boy.
Copy !req
428. You got a death-wish,
Archie, is that it?
Copy !req
429. No, Joaquin.
Copy !req
430. I wanna live.
Copy !req
431. But, guys, straight up,
Copy !req
432. most of us are gonna
be here for a long time,
Copy !req
433. and I...
Copy !req
434. I don't want to do that time
living like an animal.
Copy !req
435. Shivving each other
in the freaking yard.
Copy !req
436. That might be what
the guards and the warden
Copy !req
437. and the rest of the world
out there expects of us,
Copy !req
438. but screw them.
Copy !req
439. Let's show them
there's another way.
Copy !req
440. And what way is that?
Copy !req
441. If we weren't here,
we'd be in high school,
Copy !req
442. joining clubs,
trying out for sports.
Copy !req
443. Not me.
Copy !req
444. I dropped out
in the fourth grade
Copy !req
445. to run drugs
to support my nana.
Copy !req
446. That means you haven't known
the triumphs and defeats,
Copy !req
447. the epic highs and lows
of high school football.
Copy !req
448. But you will.
Copy !req
449. At least for one afternoon,
when all of us play a game,
Copy !req
450. one game,
Copy !req
451. to remind them
that we are not animals.
Copy !req
452. That we're men.
Copy !req
453. Not Ghoulies versus Serpents.
Copy !req
454. No gangs. We'll mix it up
for a clean, fair game.
Copy !req
455. Or we gut you like a fish
Copy !req
456. and take your shoes again.
Copy !req
457. Kid's got a point.
Copy !req
458. We keep killing each other,
they're the only ones who win.
Copy !req
459. I know all about that.
Copy !req
460. How about this?
Copy !req
461. MVP wins my new sneakers.
Copy !req
462. How about that?
Copy !req
463. If that's some weird tea from the Farm,
I really don't want it.
Copy !req
464. It's chamomile, Betty.
Calm down.
Copy !req
465. Listen, honey, I thought you would've
told Jughead about your seizure.
Copy !req
466. I'm sorry.
Copy !req
467. I shouldn't have assumed.
Copy !req
468. It's okay.
Copy !req
469. It really scared me,
what happened to you.
Copy !req
470. I'm fine, Mom.
Copy !req
471. I just want you to be safe.
Copy !req
472. I know. And I am.
Copy !req
473. Good night.
Copy !req
474. So what
happened, exactly?
Copy !req
475. One minute I was fine,
Copy !req
476. the next I was hallucinating
some truly insane stuff,
Copy !req
477. like out of a horror movie.
Copy !req
478. And then I woke up
in the emergency room
Copy !req
479. embarrassed, to be honest,
Copy !req
480. and that's why
I didn't say anything,
Copy !req
481. because it's nothing.
Copy !req
482. Dr. Patel said
it was just stress.
Copy !req
483. Great.
Copy !req
484. And I ask you to investigate
a double suicide-slash-murder?
Copy !req
485. Weirdly, being in the woods with
you investigating something crazy
Copy !req
486. is the least stressful,
most normal thing I can think of.
Copy !req
487. Kind of reminds me of
Copy !req
488. like when we first
started dating, remember?
Copy !req
489. That's probably Ethel, right?
Copy !req
490. Jug, do you see that?
Copy !req
491. Yeah, I do.
Copy !req
492. Okay. Run.
Copy !req
493. Is that the thing we just saw?
Copy !req
494. If I had to hazard
a guess, yeah.
Copy !req
495. Behold the Gargoyle King.
Copy !req
496. Luckily for us,
doesn't run very fast.
Copy !req
497. No, but really, it was too
tall to be Ethel, I think.
Copy !req
498. Unless she was on stilts,
which is a possibility
Copy !req
499. because she's not
answering her phone.
Copy !req
500. I mean, is there anything
on Dilton's map?
Copy !req
501. You mean what we should've
checked in the first place?
Copy !req
502. Uh, yeah.
Copy !req
503. Right here. This is where
I found Ben and Dilton.
Copy !req
504. And this is the footbridge
where Ethel wanted us to meet,
Copy !req
505. but this...
Copy !req
506. What does that
look like to you?
Copy !req
507. I mean, I was researching
Runic symbols earlier.
Copy !req
508. That one didn't show up.
Copy !req
509. What if it's not a symbol?
What if that's the drawing for the hatch?
Copy !req
510. That leads to
the underground bunker.
Copy !req
511. I mean, if this map is
halfway accurate,
Copy !req
512. I'd say that that's right around
the deadfall in Fox Forest.
Copy !req
513. We can find this, Betty.
Copy !req
514. I think this football game
is a fantastic idea,
Copy !req
515. but are you sure it's safe?
Copy !req
516. It's fully sanctioned.
Copy !req
517. Everyone wants this.
The Ghoulies, the Serpents.
Copy !req
518. Everyone wants to feel...
Copy !req
519. Free.
Copy !req
520. Oh, I so wish I could be there
cheering you on to victory.
Copy !req
521. Me too.
Copy !req
522. And if ever there were a group of
guys who needed a pep rally...
Copy !req
523. I've reconsidered your bid
Copy !req
524. for student council president.
Copy !req
525. Why, pray tell?
Copy !req
526. Because you were right.
Copy !req
527. Protecting Archie's presidency doesn't
really help him in any meaningful way.
Copy !req
528. I'm glad you've
come to your senses.
Copy !req
529. However, I know something that
would help bolster his spirits,
Copy !req
530. but I would need your help,
and the Vixens'.
Copy !req
531. Thanks, Delores,
I'll, uh, see you around.
Copy !req
532. Sure.
Copy !req
533. - Hey, handsome.
- Hey, Kev.
Copy !req
534. Um, me and some of the guys from
the RROTC are having a chow-down,
Copy !req
535. but I'll see you
at school tomorrow?
Copy !req
536. Moose, are you ashamed of me?
Copy !req
537. No, I just...
Copy !req
538. I'm with the guys.
Copy !req
539. I'll talk to you later.
Copy !req
540. Will you play
football with us, Mad Dog?
Copy !req
541. Can't.
Copy !req
542. Warden says I
got other business.
Copy !req
543. What the hell are you to him?
Copy !req
544. Before this place...
Copy !req
545. I had a mom.
Copy !req
546. A little brother.
Copy !req
547. A girl, too.
Copy !req
548. Liz.
Copy !req
549. They used to come visit me
every Saturday.
Copy !req
550. One day, the warden tells me
I can't see them anymore.
Copy !req
551. They've been banned.
Copy !req
552. It's for my own good, he said.
Copy !req
553. That was two years ago.
Copy !req
554. That's not right.
Copy !req
555. Next month,
they'll transfer me to a real prison
Copy !req
556. where I'll spend
the next 20 years.
Copy !req
557. You got a life
after this, a girl.
Copy !req
558. Don't let them
take that away from you.
Copy !req
559. Let's go, Mad Dog.
Copy !req
560. Good luck
with the game, Archie.
Copy !req
561. Well...
Copy !req
562. Dilton really was
a hardcore survivalist.
Copy !req
563. I'll go first.
Copy !req
564. Good God.
Copy !req
565. Looks like the inside
of a Philip K. Dick novel.
Copy !req
566. I think this is all
that game they were playing.
Copy !req
567. Yeah, Gryphons and Gargoyles.
Copy !req
568. It looks like Ben and Dilton
were in pretty deep.
Copy !req
569. I wonder if Ethel
was playing with them.
Copy !req
570. Jug.
Copy !req
571. Doesn't that look like the thing
that came at us last night?
Copy !req
572. Yeah, the Gargoyle King.
Copy !req
573. He's also featured prominently
on this copper coin.
Copy !req
574. Betty?
Copy !req
575. Oh, God.
Copy !req
576. "Drink from
the correct cup..."
Copy !req
577. Blue lips, cyanide.
Copy !req
578. It was a challenge.
Copy !req
579. It's all part of that stupid
game they were playing.
Copy !req
580. Pick the chalice
that's not poisoned
Copy !req
581. and win, I guess?
Copy !req
582. So it was suicide.
Copy !req
583. Maybe.
Copy !req
584. Or something
even more insidious.
Copy !req
585. You know
how worried your folks are?
Copy !req
586. Doesn't matter. I'm supposed
to stay hidden in the bunker
Copy !req
587. until Master Doiley
comes back.
Copy !req
588. Jeez.
Copy !req
589. Kid, haven't you heard?
Copy !req
590. Dilton's not coming back.
Copy !req
591. That's a lie.
Copy !req
592. No, it's not.
Copy !req
593. Dilton is...
Copy !req
594. dead.
Copy !req
595. I'm sorry.
Copy !req
596. Were you playing Gryphons
and Gargoyles with Dilton?
Copy !req
597. I was his apprentice.
He was teaching me how to play,
Copy !req
598. so I could eventually
join the game.
Copy !req
599. Ben Button?
Copy !req
600. And Ben's
girlfriend Ethel Muggs?
Copy !req
601. Yes, but Princess Etheline
isn't dating Ben in real life.
Copy !req
602. Only in the game.
Copy !req
603. And she warned me
two enemies
Copy !req
604. - might invade the bunker.
- Okay.
Copy !req
605. Well, game's over,
all right?
Copy !req
606. So, I'm gonna get you
back to your folks.
Copy !req
607. And then we need to pay another
visit to Princess Etheline.
Copy !req
608. Yeah!
Copy !req
609. Set. Hut!
Copy !req
610. Not so fun
without the pads, huh?
Copy !req
611. Nah, man, this is great.
Copy !req
612. Holy hell!
Copy !req
613. It's about
to get a whole lot better.
Copy !req
614. Who the hell is that?
Copy !req
615. That's my girl.
Copy !req
616. What are you doing here?
Copy !req
617. Warden Norton is a friend
and a business associate.
Copy !req
618. He told me
about this little game
Copy !req
619. and invited me to come see it.
Copy !req
620. And you, of course,
had nothing better to do.
Copy !req
621. And as disrespectful
as you're being to me,
Copy !req
622. I won't let you flush your
life down the drain for a boy.
Copy !req
623. A criminal.
And I think you'll find
Copy !req
624. that, after today, you'll no longer
be allowed to visit Archie Andrews.
Copy !req
625. I get it. Warden Norton
is in your pocket.
Copy !req
626. Everyone is in your pocket
Copy !req
627. except for me and Archie.
Copy !req
628. You won't keep us apart.
Copy !req
629. But right now, I need to go cheer
my boyfriend on to victory,
Copy !req
630. so if you'll excuse me.
Copy !req
631. Down. Set. Hut!
Copy !req
632. Stop the riot!
Copy !req
633. Stop the riot!
Copy !req
634. It's a freakin' ambush.
Everybody run!
Copy !req
635. Archie!
Copy !req
636. Let go of him!
Copy !req
637. Wait.
Copy !req
638. What's happening?
Where's Mad Dog?
Copy !req
639. What happened to his stuff?
Copy !req
640. You didn't hear?
Copy !req
641. Mad Dog died in the riot.
Copy !req
642. The one you started.
Copy !req
643. No, that's impossible.
Mad Dog wasn't even there.
Copy !req
644. It'll never end with him,
will it?
Copy !req
645. Daddy dearest, you mean?
Copy !req
646. He's obsessed with
keeping me and Archie apart.
Copy !req
647. I can't even go
visit him anymore.
Copy !req
648. Apparently he put my name
on a "do-not admit" list.
Copy !req
649. So get a new name.
Copy !req
650. Before leaving on my iconic road
trip to California with Toni,
Copy !req
651. Reggie got us fake IDs,
so we could get into the Viper Room.
Copy !req
652. I'm sure he could
hook you up, too.
Copy !req
653. You blew us off, Ethel.
Copy !req
654. And you knew where the
missing Adventure Scout was
Copy !req
655. and didn't say
anything to anyone.
Copy !req
656. Also, you and Ben
aren't really dating.
Copy !req
657. Yes, we are, okay?
We're in love.
Copy !req
658. No, Ethel, you were
playing a game, role-playing.
Copy !req
659. That's what you don't get.
Copy !req
660. It was more real than you
philistines will ever understand.
Copy !req
661. Ethel, we're trying to help you,
but you have to stop lying.
Copy !req
662. - I'm not lying.
- Okay.
Copy !req
663. Why don't we take a little trip
down to the sheriff's station
Copy !req
664. and you can put that truth on
record to Sheriff Minetta.
Copy !req
665. Look, if any of us
talk to any grown-ups,
Copy !req
666. he's gonna get
very, very angry.
Copy !req
667. Who, Ethel?
Copy !req
668. Look at what
happened to Dilton, okay?
Copy !req
669. He tried to talk to you,
and then he...
Copy !req
670. Ethel?
Copy !req
671. Ethel?
Copy !req
672. Oh, my God.
Copy !req
673. Betty, she's having a seizure.
Copy !req
674. - Jug, call an ambulance.
- Weatherbee!
Copy !req
675. Ethel, Ethel!
Copy !req
676. Hey, hey, hey! It's okay. It's okay.
Copy !req
677. Help is coming. Okay?
Copy !req
678. Yeah, hi. Uh...
Copy !req
679. We have a girl that's having
a seizure at Riverdale High.
Copy !req
680. Could you please send an
ambulance as soon as possible?
Copy !req
681. You've got ten minutes.
Copy !req
682. Hello, Archie.
Copy !req
683. My name is Monica Posh.
Copy !req
684. I'm with Riverdale's Chapter
of the Innocence Project.
Copy !req
685. And I'll be working to help
get you out of this place.
Copy !req
686. Welcome, cadets,
to the RROTC.
Copy !req
687. Excuse me, Major Mason.
Copy !req
688. My name is Kevin Keller, sir.
Copy !req
689. I'm hoping
it's not too late to join.
Copy !req
690. Keller.
You're Tom Keller's boy?
Copy !req
691. I am, sir.
Copy !req
692. Well, Tom and I were in the
RROTC together back in the day.
Copy !req
693. Come on in, son. Take a seat
and we'll get started.
Copy !req
694. Open up!
Copy !req
695. You caused quite the commotion in my yard,
Andrews.
Copy !req
696. I'm told you single-handedly sent
three of my men to the infirmary.
Copy !req
697. Where's Mad Dog, warden?
Copy !req
698. Captain Golightly said
he died in the riot
Copy !req
699. when he wasn't even there.
Copy !req
700. So what did you do to him?
Copy !req
701. Save that righteous
anger, young man.
Copy !req
702. You're going to need it.
Copy !req
703. You impressed me today.
Copy !req
704. Proved you've got
what it takes.
Copy !req
705. - What's happening?
- You've been tapped.
Copy !req
706. You're gonna be
my new Mad Dog.
Copy !req
707. Some of you already know
why we're gathered here.
Copy !req
708. And some of us
are sworn enemies.
Copy !req
709. But we made a vow
in high school.
Copy !req
710. Look, now that
the Scout is back,
Copy !req
711. safe and sound, thank God,
Copy !req
712. we can only assume
that he'll start talking.
Copy !req
713. And that whatever he says
might lead back to us.
Copy !req
714. To the secret that we
buried all those years ago.
Copy !req
715. Why are you talking
about this, Hermione?
Copy !req
716. This hasn't been
made public yet, Fred,
Copy !req
717. but Dilton Doiley
and Ben Button
Copy !req
718. were found in the woods
with blue lips.
Copy !req
719. Dilton is dead.
Copy !req
720. Ben is in a coma.
Copy !req
721. Don't you keep Sheriff Minetta
on a short leash?
Copy !req
722. Can't you just
make this all go away?
Copy !req
723. We control Minetta, yes.
Copy !req
724. Yeah, but Jughead
found the body.
Copy !req
725. That's a concern.
Copy !req
726. FP and I talked with
Jughead and Betty.
Copy !req
727. We told them
to stop chasing this.
Copy !req
728. But you know how crazy
our kids can be.
Copy !req
729. We made a pact
to never revisit that night.
Copy !req
730. Not to mention it,
not to even think about it.
Copy !req
731. My vote is we stick to that.
Copy !req
732. We might not
have that luxury, Tom.
Copy !req
733. Not if it's happening again.
Copy !req
734. Not if it's our children.
Copy !req
735. All our children.
Copy !req
736. They're in danger.
Copy !req
737. Mrs. Muggs said
that Ethel's resting.
Copy !req
738. It just doesn't
make sense, Jug.
Copy !req
739. It can't be a coincidence,
Copy !req
740. but seizures
aren't contagious.
Copy !req
741. So what?
What is it?
Copy !req
742. It sounds like another
mystery for us to solve.
Copy !req
743. If you're up for it.
Copy !req
744. I am.
Copy !req
745. And maybe
it's the same one.
Copy !req
746. Maybe there's
a connection between
Copy !req
747. the seizures and whatever
happened to Dilton and...
Copy !req
748. Do you want to check on
Ben while we're here?
