1
00:00:01,983 --> 00:00:04,188
There's an old adage,

2
00:00:04,302 --> 00:00:06,653
"You can't go home again,"

3
00:00:06,973 --> 00:00:09,982
which was certainly ringing
true for us.

4
00:00:10,426 --> 00:00:12,494
Archie had been in a war,

5
00:00:12,872 --> 00:00:15,098
Betty was an FBI agent,

6
00:00:15,140 --> 00:00:19,336
Veronica was married, Toni
was Queen of the Serpents

7
00:00:19,440 --> 00:00:21,487
and I was a published writer.

8
00:00:21,688 --> 00:00:26,154
So why were we only talking about how
the town of Riverdale had fallen

9
00:00:26,343 --> 00:00:29,585
and Archie's pipe dream
to somehow save it?

10
00:00:30,238 --> 00:00:34,135
Probably because it was easier than
the conversations that awaited us.

11
00:00:35,238 --> 00:00:36,703
Why didn't you reach out?

12
00:00:40,008 --> 00:00:44,137
I didn't think you wanted me to
after you left me that voicemail.

13
00:00:46,256 --> 00:00:48,466
On the night of your book launch?

14
00:00:49,060 --> 00:00:53,345
After that, I just assumed you
didn't want to hear from me.

15
00:00:55,648 --> 00:00:58,625
That wasn't my intention.
I'm sorry if it came off that way.

16
00:00:59,065 --> 00:01:00,735
It was nice to see you,

17
00:01:01,770 --> 00:01:05,268
even if it's strange to be back here,

18
00:01:05,614 --> 00:01:07,442
just deeply uncanny.

19
00:01:07,484 --> 00:01:11,241
Same old Archie, though.
Trying to save everyone.

20
00:01:11,267 --> 00:01:13,466
Good luck with that, dude.

21
00:01:14,199 --> 00:01:18,453
- I mean I have a book to write.
- Yeah, after Pop's retirement party,

22
00:01:18,495 --> 00:01:20,584
I have to get back to Quantico.

23
00:01:21,143 --> 00:01:23,512
It's good to see you, too, Jug,

24
00:01:24,204 --> 00:01:26,893
even though it is a bit weird.

25
00:01:32,634 --> 00:01:34,511
That's some rock on
your finger, Ronnie.

26
00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:38,348
- He must be a great guy.
- Chad?

27
00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:39,724
Yeah, he is,

28
00:01:40,149 --> 00:01:42,922
underneath the bluster and bravado.

29
00:01:44,925 --> 00:01:46,760
What about you, Bugle Boy?

30
00:01:46,786 --> 00:01:48,811
I'm sure you've had a swarm of lovers.

31
00:01:49,489 --> 00:01:51,220
I don't know about that.

32
00:01:52,354 --> 00:01:55,548
The last real relationship
I was in was...

33
00:01:56,545 --> 00:01:58,265
well, it was with you.

34
00:02:01,482 --> 00:02:04,484
Devil-may-care fling
never hurt anybody, Archie.

35
00:02:05,426 --> 00:02:08,028
Besides, you should be having
fun at this point in your life.

36
00:02:08,697 --> 00:02:10,292
Because once you're married...

37
00:02:11,382 --> 00:02:14,748
Well, that's why this is
just a quick jaunt for me.

38
00:02:15,079 --> 00:02:17,982
I have to go back to my life,
my husband.

39
00:02:18,980 --> 00:02:20,278
Yeah, for sure.

40
00:02:25,695 --> 00:02:26,786
Mom?

41
00:02:27,846 --> 00:02:30,275
I brought you a vanilla
milkshake, extra thick.

42
00:02:30,316 --> 00:02:33,153
Thanks, sweetheart.
Will you put in the fridge?

43
00:02:33,194 --> 00:02:35,488
Keep your voice down.
The twins are finally asleep.

44
00:02:35,530 --> 00:02:36,671
Sure.

45
00:02:36,834 --> 00:02:39,355
- Is Polly home yet?
- Nope. Not yet.

46
00:02:40,756 --> 00:02:42,747
It's pretty late. Where is she?

47
00:02:42,980 --> 00:02:46,019
You know, out and about at work.
You know your sister.

48
00:03:19,616 --> 00:03:22,160
Jones, it's Samm.
Where the hell are you?

49
00:03:22,202 --> 00:03:24,517
And where are your pages?Scribners...

50
00:03:24,543 --> 00:03:25,580
Forsythe Jones,

51
00:03:25,622 --> 00:03:29,417
you currently owe $9,876
to Premiere Credit.

52
00:03:29,459 --> 00:03:32,745
If you do not pay the outstanding
balance within 24 hours...

53
00:03:38,676 --> 00:03:41,810
So, how did the Bughead reunion go?

54
00:03:43,097 --> 00:03:44,569
As well as it could have,

55
00:03:44,595 --> 00:03:47,284
considering not all of us
could be happily shacked up

56
00:03:47,317 --> 00:03:49,357
with our high school sweethearts, Kev.

57
00:03:49,383 --> 00:03:51,940
FBI agent, high school drama teacher.

58
00:03:51,981 --> 00:03:53,935
I'm technically not an agent yet.

59
00:03:57,782 --> 00:04:00,174
- My God.
- What? What is it?

60
00:04:00,990 --> 00:04:05,038
Charles. He kept files of everyone
in my family, including me and...

61
00:04:05,388 --> 00:04:08,820
tapes of our
phone conversations, I think.

62
00:04:12,671 --> 00:04:14,590
Edgar, is it really you?

63
00:04:14,616 --> 00:04:16,673
No, bitch, it's your sister.

64
00:04:16,714 --> 00:04:19,509
- What? - And you're as good
as dead to me now too.

65
00:04:19,550 --> 00:04:21,028
What the...

66
00:04:21,363 --> 00:04:23,150
- Is that...
- Me.

67
00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:26,842
Calling Polly on Halloween years ago.

68
00:04:30,543 --> 00:04:32,419
Let's just get right to it, Daddy.

69
00:04:32,605 --> 00:04:34,602
I want back in on the
family businesses.

70
00:04:34,628 --> 00:04:36,479
I'm confused.
Don't you live in New York?

71
00:04:36,505 --> 00:04:40,749
As it so happens, Chadwick and I
are looking for a weekend home,

72
00:04:40,775 --> 00:04:42,374
possibly here in Riverdale.

73
00:04:42,935 --> 00:04:44,043
I see.

74
00:04:44,260 --> 00:04:48,488
Well, unfortunately for you, Hermosa
moved the rum business to Miami.

75
00:04:48,538 --> 00:04:52,647
And I sold La Bonne Nuit
to Toni Topaz years ago.

76
00:04:52,718 --> 00:04:54,210
Without telling me?

77
00:04:54,236 --> 00:04:56,029
It must have slipped my mind.

78
00:04:56,087 --> 00:04:59,003
Like how you forgot to tell me
that you were marrying Chad.

79
00:04:59,340 --> 00:05:02,363
By the way, if you're truly
interested in a weekend home,

80
00:05:02,389 --> 00:05:04,554
might I suggest a property in SoDale?

81
00:05:04,595 --> 00:05:07,223
You mean Stepford for bougie mobsters?

82
00:05:07,249 --> 00:05:09,117
No, thanks. I'm good.

83
00:05:13,771 --> 00:05:15,539
So you want me to give you a job?

84
00:05:15,565 --> 00:05:17,346
I just need some quick cash.

85
00:05:17,386 --> 00:05:20,166
Kinda hoping you could hook me
up with something short-term.

86
00:05:20,528 --> 00:05:23,393
You're lucky I'm even
willing to serve you, Jones.

87
00:05:23,456 --> 00:05:25,917
- What? Why?
- What the hell is he doing here?

88
00:05:25,943 --> 00:05:27,785
No way, Toni. No way.

89
00:05:27,827 --> 00:05:31,345
Gathering some research for
your next book there, Jones?

90
00:05:33,333 --> 00:05:36,887
Hang on. Are you guys
actually upset about my novel?

91
00:05:36,913 --> 00:05:38,587
You made the Serpents look like
fools in it.

92
00:05:38,613 --> 00:05:41,544
You mean the Vipers?
The Vipers were the good guys.

93
00:05:41,758 --> 00:05:43,343
I didn't use your actual names.

94
00:05:43,369 --> 00:05:46,269
You think people around here
couldn't figure out who...

95
00:05:46,295 --> 00:05:49,140
what was that one
character's name, "Toothy" was?

96
00:05:49,182 --> 00:05:50,806
Yeah, or Pop Eye?

97
00:05:50,832 --> 00:05:53,380
You mocked our Serpent
traditions and codes,

98
00:05:53,406 --> 00:05:55,605
and now you're asking for our help?

99
00:05:55,646 --> 00:05:58,733
Toni, guys.

100
00:05:58,775 --> 00:06:01,447
Okay, I'll help.
I'll give you some advice.

101
00:06:01,473 --> 00:06:03,516
Watch your back, Jones.

102
00:06:03,648 --> 00:06:05,974
You've made a lot of enemies in
this town.

103
00:06:12,288 --> 00:06:14,503
Principal Weatherbee,
as I wrote in my email,

104
00:06:14,529 --> 00:06:17,551
I'm here to relaunch Riverdale
High's RROTC program.

105
00:06:17,577 --> 00:06:20,713
Archie, I meant to reply, but it's
been chaotic, to say the least.

106
00:06:20,755 --> 00:06:21,867
What's up?

107
00:06:22,465 --> 00:06:24,175
It's looking like
Riverdale High might not be

108
00:06:24,217 --> 00:06:26,167
opening up its doors next Monday.

109
00:06:26,193 --> 00:06:27,724
Like everything else in this town,

110
00:06:27,750 --> 00:06:29,665
our budget's been cut almost to nothing.

111
00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:31,155
- Thanks to...
- Hiram Lodge.

112
00:06:32,046 --> 00:06:33,746
Is there anything I can do, sir?

113
00:06:33,874 --> 00:06:35,412
Alice, you're on the PTA.

114
00:06:35,438 --> 00:06:37,438
Any word on which way
the school board's leaning?

115
00:06:37,464 --> 00:06:41,359
The board has some serious doubts.
I mean we're a skeleton crew here.

116
00:06:41,401 --> 00:06:45,288
Kevin, you're teaching what,
five classes?

117
00:06:45,314 --> 00:06:49,199
Drama, Debate, Biology, Gym and...

118
00:06:49,683 --> 00:06:50,717
Sex Ed.

119
00:06:50,743 --> 00:06:52,948
- So are we dead in the water?
- Not yet.

120
00:06:52,974 --> 00:06:56,374
There are some members of the board that
would like to see the school stay open

121
00:06:56,416 --> 00:06:59,710
if we can prove that we have
the personnel and resources

122
00:06:59,752 --> 00:07:02,130
that are required,
which is questionable.

123
00:07:02,171 --> 00:07:04,937
Well, the board will hear
arguments before the vote, right?

124
00:07:04,963 --> 00:07:07,567
So we should all be there. I'll speak.

125
00:07:07,593 --> 00:07:10,268
And in the meantime,
let's target the board members

126
00:07:10,294 --> 00:07:12,247
who are still waffling and
work on them.

127
00:07:12,273 --> 00:07:15,101
If we lose this vote,
we lose this school.

128
00:07:15,143 --> 00:07:17,412
And that's another nail in
Riverdale's coffin.

129
00:07:20,715 --> 00:07:24,120
www.subtitulamos.tv

130
00:07:28,723 --> 00:07:30,167
_

131
00:07:46,883 --> 00:07:49,414
It's Tabitha, right? Tabitha Tate?

132
00:07:50,470 --> 00:07:53,598
It is. And you're Jughead Jones.

133
00:07:53,639 --> 00:07:57,277
Yeah, I am. Hey, I noticed that
you're looking for a new waiter.

134
00:07:57,303 --> 00:07:58,930
I'm definitely interested.

135
00:07:59,395 --> 00:08:02,911
Thanks. But this definitely
isn't the right job for you.

136
00:08:03,038 --> 00:08:04,236
You don't even know me.

137
00:08:04,262 --> 00:08:06,135
Also, you can't just sit here
all day using my internet.

138
00:08:06,161 --> 00:08:08,932
You have to actually
order food, not just coffee.

139
00:08:08,958 --> 00:08:11,824
And then you have to pay for said food.

140
00:08:11,866 --> 00:08:14,952
My grandfather did things
his way, and I do them mine.

141
00:08:14,994 --> 00:08:18,870
And the first rule of my diner
is no running tabs.

142
00:08:32,096 --> 00:08:33,303
Toni Topaz.

143
00:08:34,305 --> 00:08:35,556
You lost, old man?

144
00:08:35,598 --> 00:08:38,258
It's okay, guys. I got this.

145
00:08:39,143 --> 00:08:42,276
Look, you can save your breath.
If you're here to bribe me

146
00:08:42,317 --> 00:08:45,986
or threaten me into giving up the
fight to save Riverdale High...

147
00:08:47,193 --> 00:08:49,966
- How many students do you have?
- A hundred or so.

148
00:08:49,992 --> 00:08:53,226
What if I offer them all a
scholarship to Stonewall?

149
00:08:53,252 --> 00:08:56,484
They'd be getting a world-class
education at zero cost.

150
00:08:56,510 --> 00:08:59,330
Except for the fact that you're
on the board at Stonewall Prep,

151
00:08:59,372 --> 00:09:02,470
which means on some level, the
school must reflect your morals,

152
00:09:02,496 --> 00:09:04,697
which I'm not okay with.

153
00:09:04,919 --> 00:09:08,320
What if I told you that there
was an open counselor position

154
00:09:08,345 --> 00:09:10,148
with a corner office

155
00:09:10,174 --> 00:09:12,103
and a big, fat paycheck?

156
00:09:12,176 --> 00:09:13,928
Thanks, but no thanks.

157
00:09:13,970 --> 00:09:16,029
So we're playing hardball?

158
00:09:16,055 --> 00:09:17,275
I guess so.

159
00:09:27,942 --> 00:09:30,405
You know, it used to be Kevin
and I would sneak peeks

160
00:09:30,431 --> 00:09:33,624
through that window,
hoping you were shirtless.

161
00:09:33,818 --> 00:09:37,079
- And now you're spying on?
- Ghoulies.

162
00:09:37,785 --> 00:09:40,106
They've turned the house into a
drug den.

163
00:09:40,132 --> 00:09:43,830
Well, that tracks with everything
my mom says about this block.

164
00:09:44,921 --> 00:09:46,444
I'm sorry, Arch.

165
00:09:47,420 --> 00:09:48,987
It's only temporary.

166
00:09:49,013 --> 00:09:51,632
Like Hiram Lodge trying to
close down Riverdale High.

167
00:09:51,674 --> 00:09:53,797
I'm taking this town back, Betty,

168
00:09:54,004 --> 00:09:56,038
building by building, if I have to.

169
00:09:56,064 --> 00:09:57,603
Well, I can help.

170
00:09:59,056 --> 00:10:01,296
I mean, I trained with the FBI.

171
00:10:01,721 --> 00:10:03,725
I may just take you up on that,

172
00:10:04,484 --> 00:10:07,738
but first, I need a little
more information.

173
00:10:09,567 --> 00:10:11,148
Where's the rest of your
team, Sheriff Keller?

174
00:10:11,174 --> 00:10:12,278
You're looking at him.

175
00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:14,822
Mayor Lodge cut my budget to the bone.

176
00:10:14,864 --> 00:10:17,450
I got no support staff and no deputies.

177
00:10:17,491 --> 00:10:20,157
And I'm covering the whole damn
county by myself.

178
00:10:20,411 --> 00:10:24,413
Unless, of course, you count
Hiram's private security force.

179
00:10:24,446 --> 00:10:25,613
They're connected to SoDale?

180
00:10:25,639 --> 00:10:27,939
No, they work out of SoDale,
but they're corrupt as hell.

181
00:10:27,965 --> 00:10:29,999
You should who's running the force.

182
00:10:30,129 --> 00:10:31,364
It's Reggie Mantle.

183
00:10:32,953 --> 00:10:35,914
Well, maybe Reggie can help me
with my Ghoulie problem.

184
00:10:36,052 --> 00:10:38,429
You call him, he'll tip 'em off.

185
00:10:38,471 --> 00:10:40,640
I mean, he's probably getting some
kind of a kickback from them.

186
00:10:40,681 --> 00:10:42,725
You're not gonna get any help
from Reggie.

187
00:10:42,767 --> 00:10:44,536
Well, not knowingly, anyway.

188
00:10:45,306 --> 00:10:47,068
You may not have any deputies left,

189
00:10:47,094 --> 00:10:48,962
but you still have their
old gear, right?

190
00:10:48,988 --> 00:10:52,734
Kevlar vests? Batons? Now you
might want to dust them off, Tom.

191
00:10:52,958 --> 00:10:55,546
I'm gonna do some recon
first, but after that,

192
00:10:56,578 --> 00:10:57,905
we're going in.

193
00:11:01,744 --> 00:11:05,501
I've been thinking a lot about your offer,
Trudy. Is that job still on the table?

194
00:11:05,527 --> 00:11:07,566
Hell yes, it is.
The Morris William Agency

195
00:11:07,592 --> 00:11:09,835
would love to have you as a
sports agent.

196
00:11:09,877 --> 00:11:11,882
But what about the whole LA of it all?

197
00:11:11,908 --> 00:11:15,503
Well, I've been wanting to give the
West Coast a try for a while now.

198
00:11:15,529 --> 00:11:17,843
Let me make some arrangements
and I'll get back to you.

199
00:11:17,885 --> 00:11:19,469
- Okay?
- Okay.

200
00:11:20,304 --> 00:11:21,597
First class, of course.

201
00:11:21,639 --> 00:11:23,750
Yes, of course, Miss Lodge.

202
00:11:24,266 --> 00:11:29,146
But I'm having a little trouble
with the credit card on file.

203
00:11:29,188 --> 00:11:30,436
Really?

204
00:11:31,154 --> 00:11:34,035
That doesn't make sense.
Let me get back to you.

205
00:11:35,326 --> 00:11:36,610
It's so weird, Chad.

206
00:11:36,636 --> 00:11:39,281
I was doing some online shopping, and

207
00:11:39,323 --> 00:11:41,909
our American Excess card was declined.

208
00:11:41,951 --> 00:11:44,245
In fact, all of our
credit cards were declined.

209
00:11:44,286 --> 00:11:45,706
Yeah, the same thing happened to me.

210
00:11:45,732 --> 00:11:48,737
But don't worry. I'll have it sorted
by the time you get back to New York.

211
00:11:49,041 --> 00:11:50,809
Which is when, exactly?

212
00:11:51,623 --> 00:11:55,647
The retirement party's in two days,
so probably the day after that.

213
00:11:55,673 --> 00:11:57,713
Well, hurry.

214
00:11:58,128 --> 00:12:01,846
- I miss you.
- I will. I miss you too.

215
00:12:01,872 --> 00:12:02,863
Bye.

216
00:12:03,809 --> 00:12:06,348
Miss Veronica.
Excuse me for interrupting.

217
00:12:06,374 --> 00:12:08,040
No problem, Smithers. What is it?

218
00:12:08,066 --> 00:12:10,912
I've noticed the same car parked
out front for two days now,

219
00:12:10,938 --> 00:12:12,940
a black sedan with tinted windows.

220
00:12:12,982 --> 00:12:14,714
I fear you're being watched

221
00:12:15,025 --> 00:12:16,145
followed.

222
00:12:16,697 --> 00:12:18,703
I wouldn't be surprised.

223
00:12:19,071 --> 00:12:22,206
But is it a "Welcome back to
Riverdale" gift from my father

224
00:12:22,232 --> 00:12:25,599
or a not-so-subtle message from
my overpossessive husband?

225
00:12:26,387 --> 00:12:28,405
Either way, it's time to get creative

226
00:12:29,296 --> 00:12:31,752
and bring an old friend out of mothballs.

227
00:12:34,462 --> 00:12:37,204
How high are you willing
to jump for these?

228
00:12:37,230 --> 00:12:40,301
Let's say twenty grand for both.

229
00:12:40,342 --> 00:12:41,574
I'll take thirty.

230
00:12:41,843 --> 00:12:44,789
But it has to be in cash.
Like, right now.

231
00:12:48,971 --> 00:12:51,979
Also, you wouldn't by chance,

232
00:12:52,021 --> 00:12:56,198
happen to have any tasteful, discreet

233
00:12:56,567 --> 00:13:00,237
ladylike revolvers tucked
away somewhere, would you?

234
00:13:00,279 --> 00:13:02,704
You know, this being Riverdale and all.

235
00:13:02,948 --> 00:13:04,229
I might have something.

236
00:13:53,290 --> 00:13:55,373
My god, Polly!

237
00:13:55,543 --> 00:13:58,208
- You gave me a heart attack.
- You're the one pointing a gun at me.

238
00:13:58,234 --> 00:14:00,735
Sorry.
Old habits.

239
00:14:01,173 --> 00:14:02,758
It's also 3:00 in the morning.

240
00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:05,742
Well, you can go back to bed,
I'm not a burglar.

241
00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:08,021
Hey, can I...

242
00:14:10,683 --> 00:14:12,984
make you a cup of tea, at least?

243
00:14:20,401 --> 00:14:22,692
Polly, I want to apologize to you.

244
00:14:25,948 --> 00:14:27,936
I wasn't there for you

245
00:14:28,206 --> 00:14:31,287
on the other side of the Farm
when you needed me most.

246
00:14:33,330 --> 00:14:36,736
Also for prank calling you
that year on Halloween,

247
00:14:36,762 --> 00:14:40,152
I really didn't mean what I said.

248
00:14:42,047 --> 00:14:44,466
Well, it's a deep cut, Betty.

249
00:14:44,508 --> 00:14:45,638
Yeah, I know.

250
00:14:47,094 --> 00:14:48,760
I haven't forgotten.

251
00:14:52,160 --> 00:14:56,897
If it's not too late, I'd like for
us to be real sisters to each other.

252
00:14:58,647 --> 00:15:00,232
How long you in town for?

253
00:15:00,274 --> 00:15:01,979
Just a couple days.

254
00:15:02,005 --> 00:15:04,674
But once I finish at the Academy,
I'll be home a lot more.

255
00:15:04,820 --> 00:15:07,339
I'm surprised you're not
already running the FBI.

256
00:15:08,025 --> 00:15:09,643
I don't know about that.

257
00:15:12,774 --> 00:15:14,505
I've missed you, Betty.

258
00:15:15,581 --> 00:15:17,291
Mom, the twins...

259
00:15:19,168 --> 00:15:20,654
we've all missed you.

260
00:15:37,311 --> 00:15:38,687
Good morning.

261
00:15:38,729 --> 00:15:41,269
Good morning, honey. How'd you sleep?

262
00:15:41,523 --> 00:15:43,525
Well, I woke up when Polly got home.

263
00:15:43,567 --> 00:15:46,106
Does she usually stay out that late?

264
00:15:46,132 --> 00:15:47,988
She's working at that nightclub,

265
00:15:48,030 --> 00:15:49,448
The Roving Eye.

266
00:15:49,490 --> 00:15:51,754
She waitresses a few nights a week.

267
00:15:53,994 --> 00:15:55,245
Is that a good thing?

268
00:15:55,287 --> 00:15:56,790
She helps with the mortgage,

269
00:15:56,816 --> 00:15:58,624
gets the twins everything they need.

270
00:15:58,666 --> 00:16:00,295
She's doing her best.

271
00:16:00,459 --> 00:16:01,835
- We all are.
- I know.

272
00:16:01,877 --> 00:16:04,880
I just remember the Roving Eye can be

273
00:16:04,922 --> 00:16:07,549
- sketchy.
- Okay, that's not fair, Elizabeth.

274
00:16:07,591 --> 00:16:09,426
You don't get to pop in,
take a look around

275
00:16:09,468 --> 00:16:11,929
and judge your sister.
Or me, for that matter.

276
00:16:13,218 --> 00:16:14,974
Can you get that? It might be Toni.

277
00:16:16,570 --> 00:16:18,321
Did you see the morning paper, Alice?

278
00:16:18,347 --> 00:16:22,481
"Local school counselor runs
seedy bar and snake dances."

279
00:16:22,523 --> 00:16:23,788
It's a hit piece.

280
00:16:23,814 --> 00:16:26,858
Hiram Lodge is trying to ruin my
credibility in the eyes of the school board.

281
00:16:26,884 --> 00:16:28,320
Well, I'll run damage control.

282
00:16:28,362 --> 00:16:30,364
I'll call each board member
if I have to.

283
00:16:30,406 --> 00:16:31,870
Good. In the meantime,

284
00:16:31,896 --> 00:16:34,994
if Hiram Lodge is trying to drag the
Serpent Queen down to his level,

285
00:16:35,035 --> 00:16:36,811
he's gonna get himself bit.

286
00:16:47,233 --> 00:16:49,227
- Archie, what's up?
- Jug.

287
00:16:49,545 --> 00:16:52,197
How's the Five Seasons?
Room service every meal?

288
00:16:53,031 --> 00:16:54,602
Morning, noon and night.

289
00:16:54,628 --> 00:16:57,016
Look, I got an idea
for Pop Tate's retirement gift,

290
00:16:57,057 --> 00:16:59,768
but I was wondering if maybe one
of us should say something.

291
00:16:59,810 --> 00:17:01,741
You know, give a speech about Pop Tate.

292
00:17:01,767 --> 00:17:03,647
And since you're
the world famous writer...

293
00:17:03,689 --> 00:17:04,773
Yeah.

294
00:17:04,815 --> 00:17:06,078
Yeah, I'd love that.

295
00:17:06,104 --> 00:17:07,939
Okay, great. Thanks, Jug.

296
00:17:13,767 --> 00:17:15,608
_

297
00:17:18,704 --> 00:17:20,664
Reggie, it's good to see you, bro.

298
00:17:20,706 --> 00:17:22,041
I appreciate you coming out.

299
00:17:22,082 --> 00:17:23,625
Duty calls, Mantle answers.

300
00:17:23,667 --> 00:17:25,836
You having trouble
with your tenants, you said?

301
00:17:25,878 --> 00:17:28,088
No, I'm having trouble
with the gang bangers

302
00:17:28,130 --> 00:17:30,864
who are using my house
as a drug den, I said.

303
00:17:30,890 --> 00:17:33,754
Well, let's see if there's
any merit to your claims.

304
00:17:38,504 --> 00:17:40,270
It's messy,

305
00:17:40,707 --> 00:17:43,574
but I'm not seeing any evidence
of drug paraphernalia.

306
00:17:43,967 --> 00:17:45,830
Okay if we keep looking?

307
00:17:49,693 --> 00:17:51,480
Nothing in here, but stale cereal.

308
00:17:51,506 --> 00:17:53,232
All right, let's check upstairs.

309
00:17:57,441 --> 00:18:00,570
I'm sorry, Andrews. I didn't
see any contraband anywhere.

310
00:18:00,906 --> 00:18:02,031
Yeah.

311
00:18:03,061 --> 00:18:06,018
You know, it's almost like
somebody tipped off the Ghoulies.

312
00:18:10,463 --> 00:18:13,284
All right. Well, there's nothing
more for me to say or do.

313
00:18:14,551 --> 00:18:15,955
But thanks for your help, Reggie.

314
00:18:15,981 --> 00:18:17,325
My pleasure, bro.

315
00:18:32,481 --> 00:18:35,651
Feels strange to think
of not working at this place.

316
00:18:35,781 --> 00:18:37,282
Well, on the bright side,
you won't have to deal

317
00:18:37,324 --> 00:18:39,201
with annoying customers
like me anymore.

318
00:18:39,243 --> 00:18:42,663
Now you know I had a lot worse
than you in here, Jughead.

319
00:18:42,704 --> 00:18:44,336
And it all worked out, didn't it?

320
00:18:44,362 --> 00:18:48,043
I lived to see my retirement.
And you, you're a big-time writer now.

321
00:18:48,085 --> 00:18:50,170
- Always knew you'd make a good...
- I'm sorry, Pop.

322
00:18:51,408 --> 00:18:54,505
Those are debt collectors.

323
00:18:59,555 --> 00:19:01,927
Hi there, gentlemen.
Counter or booth?

324
00:19:01,953 --> 00:19:04,434
We're looking for someone.
Been known to hang around here.

325
00:19:04,476 --> 00:19:06,741
Jughead Jones. Seen him?

326
00:19:12,317 --> 00:19:16,455
No, I think I'd remember
a weird-ass name like that.

327
00:19:16,905 --> 00:19:18,526
What do you want with him?

328
00:19:19,700 --> 00:19:22,623
You just give us a call if he comes in,
okay, sweetie?

329
00:19:23,036 --> 00:19:25,911
I'll be sure to do that, pumpkin.

330
00:19:26,325 --> 00:19:27,451
Bye now.

331
00:19:35,227 --> 00:19:36,464
Thank you.

332
00:19:36,890 --> 00:19:39,392
It's not the greatest first impression.

333
00:19:39,553 --> 00:19:42,319
How much you need, Jug? Maybe I can
loan you some. I've been saving up...

334
00:19:42,345 --> 00:19:45,711
I'm low, but I'm not low enough
to take your retirement money.

335
00:19:45,934 --> 00:19:47,811
I'll figure something out, I always do.

336
00:19:47,853 --> 00:19:50,005
Thanks for the interview.
See you tomorrow.

337
00:19:50,031 --> 00:19:51,570
Hey, Jones.

338
00:19:51,968 --> 00:19:54,476
If you still want it,
the waiter job's available.

339
00:19:56,058 --> 00:19:57,188
Okay.

340
00:19:58,405 --> 00:20:00,741
In a couple days,
could you just call them

341
00:20:00,782 --> 00:20:03,929
and vouch for me and say I have
a job? I'll send them...

342
00:20:04,758 --> 00:20:07,847
half my weekly salary
so they don't break my legs.

343
00:20:08,749 --> 00:20:11,723
Yeah, I think I can do that.

344
00:20:12,168 --> 00:20:14,295
Long time no see, Ronnie.

345
00:20:14,456 --> 00:20:17,654
Reginald, I know you've been
working for my father,

346
00:20:17,680 --> 00:20:19,672
- so let's skip the pleasantries.
- Fair enough.

347
00:20:19,698 --> 00:20:20,953
I need to buy a car.

348
00:20:21,178 --> 00:20:22,803
Nothing flashy, just in good shape

349
00:20:22,829 --> 00:20:24,181
and with excellent gas mileage.

350
00:20:24,223 --> 00:20:25,390
I'm paying cash.

351
00:20:25,432 --> 00:20:27,031
Who you runnin' from?

352
00:20:27,267 --> 00:20:28,685
Your husband?

353
00:20:28,727 --> 00:20:32,314
- Is that how you roll now?
- I'm not running from anyone, Reggie.

354
00:20:32,356 --> 00:20:34,024
I'm taking the path
of least resistance,

355
00:20:34,066 --> 00:20:36,193
and I'd rather not leave a paper trail.

356
00:20:36,235 --> 00:20:39,151
Now, will you sell me a car or not?

357
00:20:39,321 --> 00:20:41,156
If you're in trouble, talk to your dad.

358
00:20:41,198 --> 00:20:42,991
Like really, talk to him.

359
00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:46,573
'Cause he'll help you. Even now, still,
with whatever you need.

360
00:20:58,257 --> 00:20:59,841
You're sure you saw Polly?

361
00:20:59,883 --> 00:21:01,094
No doubt about it.

362
00:21:01,120 --> 00:21:03,586
So she's hanging with
the Ghoulies, probably using.

363
00:21:03,612 --> 00:21:05,784
Seems like that's a safe bet.

364
00:21:06,258 --> 00:21:08,517
- I'm sorry, Betty.
- I'm not sorry.

365
00:21:09,268 --> 00:21:10,674
I'm pissed.

366
00:21:10,936 --> 00:21:14,064
So my question is,
when do we kick their asses?

367
00:21:15,602 --> 00:21:17,206
All right, thanks to Reggie Mantle,

368
00:21:17,232 --> 00:21:19,452
I have enough intel
to sweep and clear the site.

369
00:21:19,478 --> 00:21:21,223
How many Ghoulies are in your house?

370
00:21:21,249 --> 00:21:22,948
I counted a dozen in these zones.

371
00:21:22,990 --> 00:21:24,741
We hit 'em hard,

372
00:21:24,783 --> 00:21:26,285
- we hit 'em fast.
- Nice.

373
00:21:26,311 --> 00:21:28,271
It's been too long since the
Serpents rumbled with the Ghoulies.

374
00:21:28,297 --> 00:21:31,248
Calm down, Sweet Pea.
I don't want anyone dying today,

375
00:21:31,290 --> 00:21:32,666
especially not my boyfriend.

376
00:21:32,708 --> 00:21:35,508
Hopefully, they've dropped their guard and
we can find some narcotics in the house.

377
00:21:35,534 --> 00:21:38,123
And like Kev said, no one gets killed.

378
00:21:38,149 --> 00:21:41,126
None of us and none of them. Wouldn't
mind breaking a few bones, though.

379
00:21:41,152 --> 00:21:42,301
Hell, yeah.

380
00:21:47,679 --> 00:21:51,737
Ready? Three, two, one. Go.

381
00:22:19,254 --> 00:22:20,505
You good?

382
00:22:20,595 --> 00:22:22,205
- Yeah, you?
- Yeah.

383
00:22:29,556 --> 00:22:31,873
Jingle Jangle.
Just like the old days.

384
00:22:32,264 --> 00:22:34,353
They've got a lab set up
in the bathroom.

385
00:22:34,394 --> 00:22:37,214
Will that be enough to put 'em
behind bars, Agent Cooper?

386
00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:39,367
Yeah, Kev, that should do it.

387
00:22:45,003 --> 00:22:46,156
The Roving Eye.

388
00:22:46,198 --> 00:22:47,513
Hi, this is Polly.

389
00:22:47,539 --> 00:22:49,831
I'm just calling to get
my schedule for the week.

390
00:22:49,910 --> 00:22:51,229
Polly Cooper?

391
00:22:51,255 --> 00:22:53,789
You haven't worked at the
Roving Eye for over a year.

392
00:22:53,830 --> 00:22:54,998
Who is this?

393
00:22:58,377 --> 00:22:59,538
Bad news.

394
00:22:59,564 --> 00:23:01,838
Two more teachers have
defected to Stonewall Prep,

395
00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:03,342
Ms. Crouton and Mr. Cedars.

396
00:23:03,368 --> 00:23:04,719
Damn it, Ms. Crouton!

397
00:23:04,745 --> 00:23:07,612
- That backstabbing...
- We've got a bigger problem.

398
00:23:07,677 --> 00:23:09,763
I had one of my girls
break into my Hiram's office

399
00:23:09,805 --> 00:23:11,519
to see what dirt
we could use against him,

400
00:23:11,545 --> 00:23:13,850
and she found his secret agenda
for the town hall meeting.

401
00:23:13,892 --> 00:23:16,144
I love that it feels like we're
in an episode of Succession right now.

402
00:23:16,186 --> 00:23:18,525
And besides deciding
about Riverdale High,

403
00:23:18,559 --> 00:23:21,574
Hiram is also putting forth a
vote to unincorporate the town.

404
00:23:21,608 --> 00:23:24,361
Based on the receipts, seems as
though he has enough people bribed

405
00:23:24,403 --> 00:23:26,071
or terrorized into passing the motion.

406
00:23:26,113 --> 00:23:28,031
Wait, unincorporate the town,
what does that even mean?

407
00:23:28,073 --> 00:23:30,823
It means that all the money
that the town gets from the state

408
00:23:30,849 --> 00:23:32,412
for public services,

409
00:23:32,438 --> 00:23:34,955
for maintenance,
for education, it goes away.

410
00:23:34,996 --> 00:23:37,520
It means that Riverdale
as a town, ceases to exist.

411
00:23:37,546 --> 00:23:40,502
So Hiram Lodge will finally get
what he's wanted for years...

412
00:23:40,544 --> 00:23:43,350
- The death of Riverdale.
- So his precious SoDale can thrive.

413
00:23:43,383 --> 00:23:45,486
But if that happens, would
we even be able to keep

414
00:23:45,512 --> 00:23:47,289
the school open with
the board's support?

415
00:23:47,315 --> 00:23:49,966
Technically, yes. But it's going
to make it much, much harder.

416
00:23:49,992 --> 00:23:51,778
So we need to fight harder. Alice,

417
00:23:51,804 --> 00:23:54,891
I'm going to need you to go on RIVW
and blow the whistle on Hiram's plan.

418
00:23:54,933 --> 00:23:58,232
He was trying to keep it secret
so no one would show up and oppose him,

419
00:23:58,258 --> 00:24:01,398
but we need the public there so they
could vote against Hiram's plan.

420
00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:03,092
Okay, but what about
our teacher problem?

421
00:24:03,118 --> 00:24:05,348
- I think I can maybe help with that.
- How?

422
00:24:05,374 --> 00:24:08,370
Do you know any qualified
teachers with degrees?

423
00:24:08,405 --> 00:24:10,490
Because that's what it takes
to be a public school teacher.

424
00:24:10,532 --> 00:24:11,825
What if Riverdale went private?

425
00:24:11,867 --> 00:24:13,243
That way we could choose who we wanted.

426
00:24:13,285 --> 00:24:15,120
Yes, but we'd lose all public funding.

427
00:24:15,162 --> 00:24:17,377
Well, if the town unincorporates,
we lose funding anyways.

428
00:24:17,403 --> 00:24:18,817
We need an investor.

429
00:24:20,073 --> 00:24:21,950
I think I might know someone.

430
00:24:21,976 --> 00:24:26,742
Archie, if you have any favors
to call in, now is the time.

431
00:24:28,568 --> 00:24:31,055
Reggie suggested I come see you again.

432
00:24:31,344 --> 00:24:34,264
I've been running around town trying
to vamp my way out of a problem,

433
00:24:34,306 --> 00:24:37,225
when really I should be
facing it head-on.

434
00:24:37,267 --> 00:24:40,218
With, maybe, your help.

435
00:24:42,468 --> 00:24:43,839
Go on.

436
00:24:44,524 --> 00:24:49,029
Chad is threatened by my "alpha-ness."

437
00:24:49,070 --> 00:24:53,241
Because of that, he can be somewhat
possessive and controlling.

438
00:24:53,283 --> 00:24:54,784
He was having me followed,

439
00:24:54,826 --> 00:24:58,313
but I just shot out
his goon's tires. So...

440
00:24:58,805 --> 00:25:01,708
Young love.
I remember those days.

441
00:25:01,734 --> 00:25:03,434
I knew you'd relate.

442
00:25:04,002 --> 00:25:07,380
Which is why I'd appreciate you
having a little chat with him,

443
00:25:07,422 --> 00:25:09,508
as only you can, Daddykins.

444
00:25:09,549 --> 00:25:10,967
Nothing too draconian,

445
00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:14,295
just tell him to stop trying
to manage me

446
00:25:14,346 --> 00:25:16,014
or track me when I leave town.

447
00:25:16,056 --> 00:25:19,184
- Why don't you tell him yourself?
- He's not taking my hints.

448
00:25:19,226 --> 00:25:22,900
But I'm betting the Hiram Lodge

449
00:25:23,166 --> 00:25:25,211
could be a lot more persuasive.

450
00:25:26,316 --> 00:25:30,961
And then you don't get your little
Barnard-educated hands dirty, is that right?

451
00:25:34,199 --> 00:25:35,271
So,

452
00:25:35,297 --> 00:25:37,929
just to be clear, you're
officially asking me for my help?

453
00:25:40,247 --> 00:25:41,456
Sure.

454
00:25:42,582 --> 00:25:44,404
Yes, I am.

455
00:25:44,584 --> 00:25:45,961
Well, in that case...

456
00:25:47,671 --> 00:25:48,797
No.

457
00:25:50,507 --> 00:25:51,716
Come again?

458
00:25:53,677 --> 00:25:55,595
Remember you called me a dog

459
00:25:55,637 --> 00:25:58,098
and you told me that
I needed to be taught a lesson?

460
00:25:58,139 --> 00:26:01,191
It's about seven years ago.
You were cruel, Veronica.

461
00:26:01,893 --> 00:26:03,074
Brutal,

462
00:26:03,100 --> 00:26:05,272
when my body
was just a mass of bruises.

463
00:26:05,313 --> 00:26:08,355
Well, now it's my turn
to teach you a lesson.

464
00:26:08,381 --> 00:26:10,381
I warned you from the start

465
00:26:10,407 --> 00:26:12,487
that no one outside of this family

466
00:26:12,529 --> 00:26:15,574
would understand the Lodge ambition.

467
00:26:15,615 --> 00:26:17,242
You made your bed.

468
00:26:17,284 --> 00:26:19,395
You're gonna have to deal
with Chad yourself.

469
00:26:19,421 --> 00:26:22,842
And if that means you have to to crawl
into the mud to do it, then so be it.

470
00:26:23,853 --> 00:26:25,417
You're a Lodge, after all.

471
00:26:25,458 --> 00:26:28,211
You never had any intention
of helping me, did you?

472
00:26:28,253 --> 00:26:30,159
You just wanted to hear me beg.

473
00:26:30,563 --> 00:26:33,265
I assume you don't need
my help finding the exit?

474
00:26:42,483 --> 00:26:45,687
But Polly, it's not every day
that Pop Tate retires.

475
00:26:45,729 --> 00:26:47,897
- We can bring the twins.
- I told you I have to work.

476
00:26:47,939 --> 00:26:50,984
- Can't you take the night off?
- My god. Mom, I said get off my back!

477
00:26:51,026 --> 00:26:53,700
Polly, give Mom a break.

478
00:26:53,726 --> 00:26:55,875
It's fine. Polly has to work.

479
00:26:58,687 --> 00:27:01,117
Actually, I'm not so sure
she does, Mom.

480
00:27:02,276 --> 00:27:04,873
I know you don't
waitress at the Roving Eye

481
00:27:04,914 --> 00:27:06,881
and that you've been
hanging out with the Ghoulies.

482
00:27:06,907 --> 00:27:08,107
Elizabeth, stop it!

483
00:27:08,133 --> 00:27:10,170
So how exactly are you
making all of this money

484
00:27:10,211 --> 00:27:12,714
to help out with the mortgage
and support the twins?

485
00:27:12,756 --> 00:27:15,316
Are you dealing? Tricking?
Both?

486
00:27:15,342 --> 00:27:18,047
- It's none of your business.
- Actually, it is

487
00:27:18,073 --> 00:27:20,680
- because I care about you...
- You don't live here.

488
00:27:20,722 --> 00:27:22,380
You deserted us.

489
00:27:22,406 --> 00:27:25,060
Being a real sister doesn't
mean coming in for one day

490
00:27:25,101 --> 00:27:26,520
and telling me how to live my life,

491
00:27:26,546 --> 00:27:28,756
especially when you
don't know anything about it.

492
00:27:28,950 --> 00:27:30,190
Wait, Polly.

493
00:27:49,250 --> 00:27:51,392
- Samm, how are ya?
- At the end of my rope.

494
00:27:51,418 --> 00:27:53,922
Scribners wants pages,
or their money back.

495
00:27:53,963 --> 00:27:55,170
Yeah, I know, I know.

496
00:27:55,196 --> 00:27:56,629
- I'm working on something else.
- What?

497
00:27:56,655 --> 00:27:58,075
- What have you been working on?
- _

498
00:27:58,101 --> 00:27:59,496
Actually...

499
00:28:00,095 --> 00:28:01,986
Let me send it to you.
Let me know what you think.

500
00:28:02,012 --> 00:28:04,516
Might be enough to convince Scribners
that I'm not a one hit wonder.

501
00:28:04,557 --> 00:28:06,680
Okay, I'm e-mailing you...

502
00:28:07,268 --> 00:28:10,269
right now.

503
00:28:19,781 --> 00:28:22,284
I'm grateful for your help, Betty.

504
00:28:22,604 --> 00:28:24,815
Believe me, I'd rather be
dealing with this mess

505
00:28:24,841 --> 00:28:26,621
than the one I made at my own house.

506
00:28:26,647 --> 00:28:28,415
I'm sorry to hear about that.

507
00:28:31,071 --> 00:28:32,448
It's okay.

508
00:28:32,585 --> 00:28:34,532
I'll be okay, I hope.

509
00:28:38,425 --> 00:28:40,385
Hey, after Pop's party,
I thought you and me,

510
00:28:40,427 --> 00:28:42,345
Jughead and Veronica could hang out,

511
00:28:42,387 --> 00:28:43,805
just the four of us.

512
00:28:43,847 --> 00:28:45,014
We haven't done that yet.

513
00:28:45,056 --> 00:28:47,349
No, yeah, that's a nice idea.

514
00:28:47,517 --> 00:28:48,716
Let's do that.

515
00:28:50,749 --> 00:28:51,813
Cool.

516
00:28:57,195 --> 00:28:59,072
Hey, do you want some pizza?

517
00:28:59,154 --> 00:29:00,953
It's the least I can do
to thank you for everything.

518
00:29:01,322 --> 00:29:02,400
Yeah.

519
00:29:02,494 --> 00:29:04,815
Pizza. Yeah, that sounds great.

520
00:29:07,871 --> 00:29:09,598
I'm gonna take a shower first.

521
00:29:09,624 --> 00:29:10,625
I sh...

522
00:29:11,207 --> 00:29:13,084
I... me too.

523
00:29:13,126 --> 00:29:14,712
- Do you wanna go first?
- Should I go home first?

524
00:29:58,359 --> 00:29:59,816
Betty, what just happened?

525
00:30:01,493 --> 00:30:03,151
I don't know.

526
00:30:03,551 --> 00:30:05,648
Something we've been wanting
to do since high school,

527
00:30:05,674 --> 00:30:07,467
but never got around to.

528
00:30:07,597 --> 00:30:09,515
Yeah, sounds about right.

529
00:30:10,153 --> 00:30:13,202
- Just to be clear, we're...
- Friends.

530
00:30:13,506 --> 00:30:15,688
Just good old friends.

531
00:30:15,730 --> 00:30:18,987
We're both single adults. We're allowed
to have fun every now and then, right?

532
00:30:19,855 --> 00:30:21,067
Yeah.

533
00:30:21,906 --> 00:30:24,014
And it's okay
if we keep this to ourselves.

534
00:30:25,031 --> 00:30:27,296
Yeah. Veronica's a married woman,

535
00:30:27,322 --> 00:30:31,048
and Jughead and I haven't dated
for seven years, so...

536
00:30:32,641 --> 00:30:34,435
I think it's okay.

537
00:30:34,541 --> 00:30:35,973
Okay, good.

538
00:30:40,031 --> 00:30:41,653
What a gift!

539
00:30:41,965 --> 00:30:43,174
Thank you, Archie.

540
00:30:43,216 --> 00:30:44,926
It's from all of us, Pop.

541
00:30:44,968 --> 00:30:47,178
It's a small token to show
how much you mean to us,

542
00:30:47,220 --> 00:30:49,504
to Riverdale High, to the whole town.

543
00:30:50,682 --> 00:30:53,303
You know, I had to drop out of school

544
00:30:53,329 --> 00:30:56,403
to take over running
this place after my Pop,

545
00:30:56,729 --> 00:30:59,730
the original Pop, passed away.

546
00:30:59,935 --> 00:31:01,588
I never got to graduate.

547
00:31:02,944 --> 00:31:05,415
This means the world to me.

548
00:31:07,776 --> 00:31:09,426
Jug's gonna say a few words.

549
00:31:14,956 --> 00:31:17,723
I think sometimes it can be hard
to put our faith in this town.

550
00:31:20,816 --> 00:31:23,515
But I think Pop created
something really special here,

551
00:31:23,882 --> 00:31:26,134
created a place for
the lost and wayward souls

552
00:31:26,175 --> 00:31:27,878
of Riverdale to come to.

553
00:31:28,984 --> 00:31:30,903
And I think, that's more than

554
00:31:31,055 --> 00:31:33,639
jukebox or vinyl booths. It's...

555
00:31:34,128 --> 00:31:36,314
like a lighthouse in the storm.

556
00:31:37,159 --> 00:31:38,968
And Pop himself,

557
00:31:39,856 --> 00:31:41,392
he's many things.

558
00:31:42,609 --> 00:31:44,545
He's a joker.

559
00:31:45,114 --> 00:31:46,643
He's a soldier.

560
00:31:47,758 --> 00:31:48,995
He's a cook.

561
00:31:49,926 --> 00:31:51,783
He's a really good listener.

562
00:31:52,990 --> 00:31:54,756
He's also a father.

563
00:31:54,974 --> 00:31:57,797
He's a son, and a grandfather.

564
00:31:58,546 --> 00:32:00,194
And to many of us

565
00:32:01,502 --> 00:32:03,182
and to me personally...

566
00:32:07,802 --> 00:32:09,844
it's about the only reason
that I made it through.

567
00:32:11,137 --> 00:32:12,585
You gave us a home, Pop.

568
00:32:14,894 --> 00:32:16,050
Thank you.

569
00:32:19,542 --> 00:32:20,896
To Pop Tate

570
00:32:21,898 --> 00:32:23,478
who never let the lights go dark.

571
00:32:23,504 --> 00:32:25,520
Pop Tate!

572
00:32:32,158 --> 00:32:34,058
Cheryl, I'm glad you came.

573
00:32:34,202 --> 00:32:37,408
I wasn't sure you would, after I
sent you my message.

574
00:32:37,434 --> 00:32:39,215
It sounded rather dire,

575
00:32:39,582 --> 00:32:41,709
plus, Pop always added
the drop of human kindness

576
00:32:41,751 --> 00:32:43,044
to whatever my order was.

577
00:32:43,086 --> 00:32:45,283
Have you considered my ask

578
00:32:45,624 --> 00:32:48,724
to fund Riverdale
and the new teachers it needs?

579
00:32:48,925 --> 00:32:50,927
It's the only thing that may,

580
00:32:50,969 --> 00:32:53,306
might... save the school.

581
00:32:53,332 --> 00:32:55,306
Look, I came here to celebrate Pop,

582
00:32:55,348 --> 00:32:58,210
not get caught up in small
town politics, Antoinette.

583
00:32:59,227 --> 00:33:02,689
And I can barely afford
Thornhill's renovations as it is.

584
00:33:02,730 --> 00:33:05,024
Cheryl, I know you think you're cursed,

585
00:33:05,066 --> 00:33:07,086
and the sins of your family
are so great,

586
00:33:07,112 --> 00:33:09,195
there's nothing you can do
to atone for them.

587
00:33:09,237 --> 00:33:10,949
But you're wrong.

588
00:33:11,197 --> 00:33:14,269
There's a war going on
in Riverdale for Riverdale.

589
00:33:14,659 --> 00:33:16,256
We need you.

590
00:33:17,850 --> 00:33:19,476
I'm sorry. I can't.

591
00:33:19,622 --> 00:33:21,249
It will start as something good,

592
00:33:21,290 --> 00:33:24,246
and end up corrupted,
like everything I try to do.

593
00:33:26,098 --> 00:33:28,441
If you won't do it for the town...

594
00:33:29,374 --> 00:33:30,870
would you do it for me?

595
00:33:32,045 --> 00:33:33,247
Please?

596
00:33:35,054 --> 00:33:37,488
If our love ever meant anything to you,

597
00:33:38,725 --> 00:33:39,845
help us.

598
00:33:44,647 --> 00:33:47,283
If I gave you the money,
who would these new teachers even be?

599
00:33:51,946 --> 00:33:53,781
So you're really gonna do this?

600
00:33:53,807 --> 00:33:54,847
Well...

601
00:33:55,366 --> 00:33:58,286
Run the RROTC
out of your old high school?

602
00:33:58,327 --> 00:33:59,939
If I get a chance to, yeah.

603
00:34:01,414 --> 00:34:04,125
It's kinda why I wanted us to
sneak in here, the four of us.

604
00:34:05,481 --> 00:34:07,915
Hiram's trying to shut this place down.

605
00:34:08,504 --> 00:34:10,214
And he's pushing to
unincorporate the town,

606
00:34:10,256 --> 00:34:11,799
which would wipe Riverdale off the map.

607
00:34:11,841 --> 00:34:14,177
My father is nothing,
if not consistent.

608
00:34:14,218 --> 00:34:15,820
I think we can stop him,

609
00:34:16,054 --> 00:34:18,179
- or at least slow him down.
- How?

610
00:34:20,808 --> 00:34:22,727
We become teachers here.

611
00:34:23,811 --> 00:34:26,941
I know it sounds crazy, but it's
also a way to keep the school going,

612
00:34:26,967 --> 00:34:29,192
which means if Hiram wins the vote,

613
00:34:29,233 --> 00:34:32,091
we still have a defendable
position, this school.

614
00:34:32,278 --> 00:34:35,615
And if we can save it,
we can give people at least

615
00:34:35,656 --> 00:34:38,076
one more reason to stay in Riverdale.

616
00:34:38,117 --> 00:34:39,319
And in time,

617
00:34:39,345 --> 00:34:40,870
we can bring this town back to life.

618
00:34:40,896 --> 00:34:41,946
Archie...

619
00:34:42,497 --> 00:34:44,916
I'm married.
I have a life back in New York.

620
00:34:44,957 --> 00:34:47,502
Yeah, and I have a novel to write.

621
00:34:47,543 --> 00:34:50,046
Veronica, plenty of people
commute to the city.

622
00:34:50,088 --> 00:34:52,358
And Jug, you always said,

623
00:34:52,565 --> 00:34:55,230
you do your best writing
in a booth at Pop's.

624
00:34:56,175 --> 00:34:57,969
And it's not gonna be long...

625
00:34:58,113 --> 00:34:59,782
a month or two,

626
00:34:59,847 --> 00:35:03,017
just to give Weatherbee enough time
to find permanent replacements.

627
00:35:03,059 --> 00:35:04,137
I'm in.

628
00:35:05,645 --> 00:35:07,355
Quantico can wait a couple months,

629
00:35:07,396 --> 00:35:10,233
and I need to be here right now
for my mom and Polly.

630
00:35:10,274 --> 00:35:11,408
Thanks, Betty.

631
00:35:12,956 --> 00:35:14,054
Jug?

632
00:35:15,334 --> 00:35:17,150
I'd have to clear it with my new job.

633
00:35:17,785 --> 00:35:19,273
But why not?

634
00:35:19,423 --> 00:35:22,703
I'd like to shape some
impressionable young minds.

635
00:35:22,745 --> 00:35:25,485
I'm in, too.
I'll make it work with Chad.

636
00:35:25,511 --> 00:35:29,098
And considering that what's happening
here is all my dad's fault...

637
00:35:29,124 --> 00:35:31,275
I need to give back more than anyone.

638
00:35:31,671 --> 00:35:34,048
And I didn't really wanna be
a sports agent anyway.

639
00:35:34,090 --> 00:35:35,967
That's awesome, Veronica.

640
00:35:36,008 --> 00:35:39,095
So... Bulldogs forever?

641
00:35:44,559 --> 00:35:46,731
Bulldogs forever!

642
00:35:48,020 --> 00:35:51,274
Before the school board votes
on the fate of Riverdale High,

643
00:35:51,315 --> 00:35:54,527
Toni Topaz has asked
to say a few words.

644
00:35:54,569 --> 00:35:57,738
Good afternoon.
My name is Toni Topaz,

645
00:35:57,780 --> 00:36:01,104
and I am a guidance counselor
at Riverdale High.

646
00:36:01,367 --> 00:36:05,337
The point of a school board
is to make sure there's equity,

647
00:36:05,496 --> 00:36:09,125
that kids of all ages,
from all different backgrounds

648
00:36:09,167 --> 00:36:12,102
have equal access to education.

649
00:36:12,461 --> 00:36:17,771
Well, with the help of one
very generous donor,

650
00:36:18,384 --> 00:36:20,344
I'm happy to announce
that Riverdale High

651
00:36:20,370 --> 00:36:23,996
will be able to do that
as a private school.

652
00:36:25,266 --> 00:36:27,688
And unlike other private schools,

653
00:36:27,714 --> 00:36:30,456
Riverdale will be tuition-free.

654
00:36:30,688 --> 00:36:33,100
And we're bolstering our teaching staff

655
00:36:33,126 --> 00:36:36,637
with notable alumnus
like Sergeant Archie Andrews,

656
00:36:37,421 --> 00:36:42,069
FBI trainee and Yale graduate,
Betty Cooper,

657
00:36:42,408 --> 00:36:46,037
businesswoman and Barnard grad,
Veronica Gekko

658
00:36:46,078 --> 00:36:50,833
and acclaimed author,
Forsythe Jones III.

659
00:36:50,875 --> 00:36:52,877
So spread the news far and wide,

660
00:36:52,919 --> 00:36:56,498
that Riverdale and its children,
will not be at the mercy

661
00:36:56,524 --> 00:37:00,320
of Hiram Lodge's destructive whims.

662
00:37:00,463 --> 00:37:01,552
Thank you.

663
00:37:02,970 --> 00:37:04,125
That's very nice.

664
00:37:07,283 --> 00:37:09,525
Look at that. Was better than
Kendall Roy's speech

665
00:37:09,560 --> 00:37:10,645
- at the end of season two.
- Thank you.

666
00:37:10,686 --> 00:37:12,480
And now, I'd like to introduce

667
00:37:12,521 --> 00:37:15,521
what I hope will be
my last motion as Mayor,

668
00:37:15,547 --> 00:37:19,278
a proposition to unincorporate
the town of Riverdale.

669
00:37:21,357 --> 00:37:22,925
All those opposed?

670
00:37:24,450 --> 00:37:25,849
All those in favor?

671
00:37:29,734 --> 00:37:30,830
Majority wins.

672
00:37:30,856 --> 00:37:34,123
The township of Riverdale
is hereby dissolved.

673
00:37:43,261 --> 00:37:45,137
What had taken decades to build

674
00:37:45,179 --> 00:37:47,348
was toppled in the blink of an eye.

675
00:37:47,579 --> 00:37:50,799
With the rap of a gavel,
Riverdale was no more.

676
00:37:50,825 --> 00:37:53,592
And yet, life continues.

677
00:37:59,443 --> 00:38:00,889
Samm, I was gonna call you.

678
00:38:00,915 --> 00:38:03,591
Jones, Scribners loved your story
about the old man.

679
00:38:04,762 --> 00:38:05,881
- They what?
- Yeah.

680
00:38:05,907 --> 00:38:07,971
They think it's your next book
and a slam dunk.

681
00:38:07,997 --> 00:38:11,205
Apparently, there's, there's a huge
market right now for tragic Americana,

682
00:38:11,247 --> 00:38:12,745
dying community,

683
00:38:12,771 --> 00:38:15,042
all of the miserable people
who live there,

684
00:38:15,084 --> 00:38:18,212
you know, we'll call it Elegy for
a Small Town. What do you think?

685
00:38:20,991 --> 00:38:22,883
No, I don't wanna write about that.

686
00:38:22,925 --> 00:38:24,882
You don't have a choice, Jones.
This is your ticket

687
00:38:24,908 --> 00:38:27,096
under the literary grave
you dug for yourself.

688
00:38:27,138 --> 00:38:29,332
Now you need to deliver. Understood?

689
00:38:29,878 --> 00:38:31,921
- Yeah, understood.
- Thank you.

690
00:38:48,117 --> 00:38:50,119
Hey, Mom. I checked upstairs.

691
00:38:50,161 --> 00:38:52,553
The twins are playing,
but Polly's still not home.

692
00:38:52,666 --> 00:38:53,729
I'm worried.

693
00:38:53,755 --> 00:38:56,182
You know your sister.
She gets angry, storms off.

694
00:38:56,208 --> 00:38:57,543
God knows when she'll be back.

695
00:38:57,585 --> 00:38:59,200
This is what happens.

696
00:38:59,396 --> 00:39:01,112
But this one's on you, Elizabeth.

697
00:39:04,995 --> 00:39:06,818
I'm not coming home just yet.

698
00:39:06,844 --> 00:39:09,638
I'm gonna stay in Riverdale
a little bit longer, Chad.

699
00:39:10,852 --> 00:39:12,099
Why is that?

700
00:39:12,141 --> 00:39:15,603
My alma mater, Riverdale High,
has fallen on hard times

701
00:39:15,644 --> 00:39:17,146
and needs my help.

702
00:39:17,188 --> 00:39:18,856
So, I'll be teaching there.

703
00:39:18,898 --> 00:39:21,150
- That's absurd.
- No, no.

704
00:39:21,176 --> 00:39:24,362
What's absurd is you
freezing our credit cards,

705
00:39:24,403 --> 00:39:26,822
especially since I made
most of the money

706
00:39:26,864 --> 00:39:28,491
that's in our joint accounts.

707
00:39:28,532 --> 00:39:29,593
Yeah.

708
00:39:29,823 --> 00:39:34,463
So, if they're not unfrozen
in the next, say, 30 minutes,

709
00:39:34,989 --> 00:39:37,166
I'll consider it an act of aggression.

710
00:39:37,208 --> 00:39:39,126
You know, like you having me followed.

711
00:39:39,168 --> 00:39:40,711
And the next time you see me,

712
00:39:40,753 --> 00:39:43,172
it'll be on Wall Street, on the floor,

713
00:39:43,214 --> 00:39:44,853
when the markets open Monday morning.

714
00:39:44,879 --> 00:39:47,418
And this she wolf
will tear out your throat

715
00:39:47,444 --> 00:39:50,679
in front of all the other alpha dogs,
with zero hesitation.

716
00:39:50,721 --> 00:39:51,954
Is that it, then?

717
00:39:52,723 --> 00:39:55,640
- Are we done? - You have 30
minutes to reactivate our cards.

718
00:40:08,216 --> 00:40:10,494
_

719
00:40:18,584 --> 00:40:21,030
_

720
00:40:21,403 --> 00:40:22,460
_

721
00:40:33,597 --> 00:40:36,485
- Jug.
- Hey... Sorry, it's late.

722
00:40:37,435 --> 00:40:39,043
Wondering if you could use...

723
00:40:39,228 --> 00:40:42,356
a roommate, now that you're in
this big, empty house all by yourself.

724
00:40:42,647 --> 00:40:44,735
Yeah, what happened to
the Five Seasons?

725
00:40:44,817 --> 00:40:47,667
It's a little rich for my blood.

726
00:40:47,693 --> 00:40:48,779
Come in.

727
00:40:58,948 --> 00:41:00,833
Hey, it's Polly. Leave a message.

728
00:41:00,875 --> 00:41:03,339
Polly, it's me again.

729
00:41:03,724 --> 00:41:07,248
I wanted to say that I'm sorry
about what I said before.

730
00:41:07,590 --> 00:41:09,898
I really had no right to judge you,

731
00:41:09,924 --> 00:41:12,470
especially after being gone
for so long.

732
00:41:12,511 --> 00:41:13,554
It wasn't my place.

733
00:41:13,596 --> 00:41:15,890
So, I wanna tell you that

734
00:41:15,931 --> 00:41:18,205
I love you, and that I'm here for you.

735
00:41:18,231 --> 00:41:19,667
So just call me.

736
00:41:19,693 --> 00:41:22,021
And I'll come find you,
wherever you are

737
00:41:22,062 --> 00:41:24,023
or I'll see you when you get home.

738
00:41:24,064 --> 00:41:26,627
Just please, please, please, come home.

739
