1
00:00:04,390 --> 00:00:06,288
This is the story of two teenage boys

2
00:00:06,314 --> 00:00:08,273
living under the same roof.

3
00:00:08,489 --> 00:00:09,839
They go to the same school.

4
00:00:09,865 --> 00:00:11,289
They think about the same things,

5
00:00:11,315 --> 00:00:12,882
mostly cars and girls.

6
00:00:12,925 --> 00:00:14,875
But very different passions drive them.

7
00:00:16,070 --> 00:00:19,046
On a normal typical morning, the
first thing these two boys do

8
00:00:19,072 --> 00:00:22,070
is go for a run through
the still-asleep town.

9
00:00:22,595 --> 00:00:24,641
For Reggie, a run is a warm-up,

10
00:00:24,667 --> 00:00:27,515
before he turns
to his true love, basketball.

11
00:00:28,901 --> 00:00:31,281
For Archie, it's a
different kind of warm-up,

12
00:00:31,307 --> 00:00:33,484
before putting pencil to paper.

13
00:00:34,348 --> 00:00:38,135
Mind you, today isn't
a normal, typical morning.

14
00:00:38,233 --> 00:00:39,844
It's the day after Halloween,

15
00:00:39,966 --> 00:00:41,617
when a car full of Bulldogs

16
00:00:41,643 --> 00:00:44,578
drove off a bridge
and into Sweetwater River.

17
00:00:46,372 --> 00:00:49,319
Team captain Julian Blossom
had been behind the wheel.

18
00:00:49,468 --> 00:00:52,791
All the Bulldogs most likely would
have drowned if not for Reggie,

19
00:00:52,835 --> 00:00:55,055
who pulled them
from the water one by one.

20
00:00:56,488 --> 00:00:58,621
But Julian Blossom was unconscious,

21
00:00:58,647 --> 00:01:00,835
hovering between life and death.

22
00:01:01,770 --> 00:01:03,752
Even as Frank Andrews was doing his best

23
00:01:03,778 --> 00:01:06,234
to calm down an enraged
Clifford Blossom.

24
00:01:06,703 --> 00:01:09,773
I knew bringing that
punk in was a bad idea.

25
00:01:09,799 --> 00:01:11,500
It's his fault, it had to have been.

26
00:01:11,526 --> 00:01:13,375
And I want him off my team.

27
00:01:13,634 --> 00:01:16,195
Mayor Blossom, we're still
piecing together what happened,

28
00:01:16,221 --> 00:01:20,335
but it's my understanding that
it was Julian behind the wheel.

29
00:01:20,361 --> 00:01:21,648
You know what I do know?

30
00:01:21,674 --> 00:01:25,520
That that... thug has been trouble
since the day he got here

31
00:01:25,546 --> 00:01:27,289
and I want him gone.

32
00:01:27,315 --> 00:01:29,843
Mister Mayor, you shouldn't be
thinking about the team right now.

33
00:01:29,869 --> 00:01:31,750
You should be focusing on your son.

34
00:01:31,776 --> 00:01:34,234
Everything else can be sorted out later.

35
00:01:34,761 --> 00:01:38,025
And the Bulldogs weren't the only
Halloween tragedy that night.

36
00:01:38,051 --> 00:01:41,458
The milkman had tried to
murder my bud, Ethel Muggs.

37
00:01:41,484 --> 00:01:45,398
It's the same milkman that I saw

38
00:01:45,766 --> 00:01:49,570
leaving my house after he
killed my parents, Sheriff.

39
00:01:49,634 --> 00:01:53,464
But I wrestled the knife out of his hand

40
00:01:53,687 --> 00:01:54,949
and then...

41
00:01:55,734 --> 00:01:58,125
It was self-defense, Sheriff.

42
00:01:58,622 --> 00:02:00,656
In case you're getting any funny ideas.

43
00:02:01,354 --> 00:02:04,765
Well, at least all our questions
have finally been answered.

44
00:02:05,344 --> 00:02:06,804
Are you joshing us?

45
00:02:07,691 --> 00:02:09,605
Now I have even more questions.

46
00:02:09,657 --> 00:02:12,834
Should I go to the station
and make a statement?

47
00:02:12,909 --> 00:02:15,129
No, that won't be necessary.

48
00:02:15,155 --> 00:02:18,575
It strikes me as a open-and-shut case.

49
00:02:18,601 --> 00:02:20,054
Open and shut?

50
00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:24,304
Sheriff, whoever this maniac
is, killed Ethel's parents,

51
00:02:24,330 --> 00:02:26,875
killed Mr. Rayberry and
tried to bump off Ethel.

52
00:02:27,083 --> 00:02:29,296
If you have all the answers, who is he?

53
00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:34,609
- Who is the milkman?
- I will get to that.

54
00:02:34,635 --> 00:02:37,492
Maybe his fingerprints are
on file at the office,

55
00:02:37,518 --> 00:02:40,632
but in the meantime, we need to
get Ethel back to the Sisters.

56
00:02:40,658 --> 00:02:42,617
- No!
- No, no, no.

57
00:02:42,643 --> 00:02:45,523
The Sisters were abusing Ethel.
She'll come with me.

58
00:02:45,549 --> 00:02:48,710
She needs to be in the
care of an adult, Jughead.

59
00:02:49,652 --> 00:02:53,375
Well, that may be so,
but not the Sisters.

60
00:02:55,452 --> 00:02:57,608
Frank, Archie, do you have any news?

61
00:02:58,459 --> 00:03:00,722
Wait. Jughead, slow down.

62
00:03:00,748 --> 00:03:02,429
What is this about Ethel?

63
00:03:10,460 --> 00:03:12,414
Ethel, dear.

64
00:03:12,640 --> 00:03:14,950
Mary and I have been
discussing everything,

65
00:03:14,976 --> 00:03:16,718
and we've made a decision.

66
00:03:17,069 --> 00:03:19,419
Given everything that's been going on,

67
00:03:19,445 --> 00:03:23,000
we both think that it might be
best if you stay with the Coopers.

68
00:03:23,216 --> 00:03:24,783
What, again?

69
00:03:24,809 --> 00:03:27,684
No, the last time that I
stayed with Mrs. Cooper,

70
00:03:27,710 --> 00:03:29,600
she sent me away to that horrible place.

71
00:03:29,644 --> 00:03:31,500
Oh. Honestly, Ethel,

72
00:03:31,526 --> 00:03:35,335
sending you to the Sisters
was more Mr. Cooper's idea.

73
00:03:35,574 --> 00:03:38,578
So let's get you settled
in my sewing room.

74
00:03:40,143 --> 00:03:41,578
Come along, dear.

75
00:03:51,477 --> 00:03:54,828
If you hadn't been there, those
Bulldogs would've drowned.

76
00:03:56,742 --> 00:03:59,131
You saved their lives, Reg, even Julian.

77
00:03:59,157 --> 00:04:01,218
- You're a hero.
- I'm no hero.

78
00:04:03,145 --> 00:04:05,495
When I realized I was the only one

79
00:04:05,523 --> 00:04:09,648
who'd gotten free from the car
and kicked to the surface, I knew...

80
00:04:10,261 --> 00:04:12,686
that I had to dive back down there

81
00:04:13,599 --> 00:04:15,195
and get everyone out.

82
00:04:15,743 --> 00:04:19,906
Even in that moment, I knew
that if any of those guys died,

83
00:04:21,825 --> 00:04:23,674
especially Blossom,

84
00:04:24,547 --> 00:04:26,343
that I'd be blamed for it.

85
00:04:26,571 --> 00:04:28,791
They would have locked me
up for the rest of my life.

86
00:04:28,817 --> 00:04:30,734
Or done worse than locked me up.

87
00:04:37,289 --> 00:04:40,610
www.subtitulamos.tv

88
00:04:48,067 --> 00:04:49,368
Good morning.

89
00:04:49,896 --> 00:04:52,946
I'm heading to school now, Ethel,
if you wanted to walk with me?

90
00:04:53,129 --> 00:04:55,743
- Sure.
- Don't be ridiculous, Elizabeth.

91
00:04:55,769 --> 00:04:58,313
I'll be driving Ethel
to school this morning.

92
00:05:07,998 --> 00:05:10,295
My mom is such a phony-baloney.

93
00:05:10,321 --> 00:05:12,670
She sent Ethel away to The
Sisters of Quiet Mercy,

94
00:05:12,696 --> 00:05:14,504
and now she's playing nice with her

95
00:05:14,530 --> 00:05:18,741
and treating me like I'm
some unwanted guest?

96
00:05:18,869 --> 00:05:21,829
Yeah, I tell you, Vee, I have half
a mind to run away from home.

97
00:05:21,855 --> 00:05:25,225
You don't have to sell me on
the pain of phony parents.

98
00:05:25,446 --> 00:05:28,936
And I'd invite you to stay with
me at the Pembrooke, but...

99
00:05:29,615 --> 00:05:33,204
truth be told, I've been
living at the Babylonium

100
00:05:33,315 --> 00:05:36,158
ever since my parents locked
me out of our apartment.

101
00:05:36,705 --> 00:05:39,947
What? You're living
at the movie theater?

102
00:05:39,973 --> 00:05:42,149
Veronica Lodge is nothing more

103
00:05:42,175 --> 00:05:43,642
than a common squatter.

104
00:05:43,668 --> 00:05:47,361
Let me ask you, have you
tried breaking back in?

105
00:05:49,331 --> 00:05:52,361
I know that this is a difficult time,

106
00:05:52,591 --> 00:05:55,244
but I did want to share aloud

107
00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:58,017
a poem that one of you
turned in last week.

108
00:06:00,247 --> 00:06:01,642
It's titled

109
00:06:02,204 --> 00:06:03,517
"Phantom."

110
00:06:07,388 --> 00:06:09,205
"They tell me I'm solid.

111
00:06:09,848 --> 00:06:11,572
They pat me on the back.

112
00:06:11,799 --> 00:06:13,151
They see a son,

113
00:06:13,503 --> 00:06:14,800
student,

114
00:06:15,637 --> 00:06:17,050
a team player.

115
00:06:18,067 --> 00:06:20,198
They see a boy like any other.

116
00:06:21,337 --> 00:06:23,011
But I look in the mirror,

117
00:06:24,072 --> 00:06:25,713
and there's no one there.

118
00:06:26,324 --> 00:06:28,347
Just smoke and mirrors,

119
00:06:29,503 --> 00:06:32,034
and I do not know how to be solid."

120
00:06:36,428 --> 00:06:37,864
Any thoughts, class?

121
00:06:39,494 --> 00:06:40,940
It was beautiful.

122
00:06:41,571 --> 00:06:42,612
Yeah.

123
00:06:43,260 --> 00:06:44,745
That was incredible, Clay.

124
00:06:45,514 --> 00:06:48,151
I agree, but I didn't write it.

125
00:06:48,699 --> 00:06:49,699
No.

126
00:06:49,870 --> 00:06:52,839
It was not Mr. Walker's poem.

127
00:06:53,347 --> 00:06:55,409
It was Mr. Andrew's work.

128
00:06:58,995 --> 00:07:01,819
I wish you'd speak up
more in class, Archie.

129
00:07:01,901 --> 00:07:04,003
Based on this poem, it's clear.

130
00:07:04,029 --> 00:07:05,862
You have a lot to say.

131
00:07:07,900 --> 00:07:10,081
All right, fellas, listen up.

132
00:07:10,737 --> 00:07:14,855
Now, we're scheduled for our big game
against Stonewall Prep this Friday night,

133
00:07:14,881 --> 00:07:18,253
but after recent events,

134
00:07:19,026 --> 00:07:20,566
we've decided to name a new captain

135
00:07:20,592 --> 00:07:23,128
while Julian, God willing, recovers.

136
00:07:23,733 --> 00:07:25,167
And that captain...

137
00:07:26,558 --> 00:07:27,909
will be Archie.

138
00:07:33,094 --> 00:07:34,094
Now,

139
00:07:34,500 --> 00:07:38,672
let's all take a knee, say a prayer
for our Bulldog brother in distress.

140
00:07:41,282 --> 00:07:44,198
We're so happy to have
you back with us, Ethel.

141
00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:46,907
Yes, I admit, it's quite the reversal,

142
00:07:46,933 --> 00:07:49,750
but you proved your sanity

143
00:07:49,841 --> 00:07:54,055
by single handedly
dispatching that, drifter.

144
00:07:54,462 --> 00:07:55,563
A drifter?

145
00:07:55,946 --> 00:07:58,173
Who said that the milkman was a drifter?

146
00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:00,563
Sheriff Keller, if I'm not mistaken.

147
00:08:00,589 --> 00:08:02,961
It's obvious what
happened, this drifter.

148
00:08:03,142 --> 00:08:07,258
His mind was poisoned by the
dreck Pep Comics publishes,

149
00:08:07,284 --> 00:08:10,465
and he was inspired to go
on a murderous rampage,

150
00:08:10,491 --> 00:08:14,103
much like the original comic book.

151
00:08:14,129 --> 00:08:17,555
And then he must have
stolen a milkman's uniform

152
00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:21,609
and begun killing to satisfy
some insane bloodlust.

153
00:08:24,924 --> 00:08:27,196
Well, that does make perfect sense.

154
00:08:28,110 --> 00:08:31,521
Except why would he kill Ethel's parents

155
00:08:31,547 --> 00:08:33,138
and then Brad Rayberry,

156
00:08:33,164 --> 00:08:36,493
and then tried to get Ethel herself?

157
00:08:36,834 --> 00:08:39,224
Do you really think that
a drifter would do that?

158
00:08:39,250 --> 00:08:43,649
Yes. Don't drifters usually move on?

159
00:08:43,675 --> 00:08:44,836
Drift.

160
00:08:46,260 --> 00:08:50,008
Neither of you are in a
position to theorize.

161
00:08:50,314 --> 00:08:53,032
We have told you exactly what happened.

162
00:08:54,326 --> 00:08:57,125
Now, I hope that you both

163
00:08:57,193 --> 00:09:01,227
finally see the very real danger

164
00:09:02,413 --> 00:09:05,422
in what comic books pose to society.

165
00:09:14,426 --> 00:09:15,836
Uncle Frank?

166
00:09:16,013 --> 00:09:17,384
Hey, Archie.

167
00:09:22,349 --> 00:09:25,788
I'm honored to be named
captain of this team,

168
00:09:25,967 --> 00:09:28,772
but shouldn't it be Reggie?

169
00:09:28,798 --> 00:09:31,801
He's our strongest player, by a mile.

170
00:09:31,827 --> 00:09:34,100
Well, that may be so, Archie,

171
00:09:34,967 --> 00:09:36,500
but this wasn't my call.

172
00:09:36,526 --> 00:09:38,600
Clifford Blossom wanted you to step up.

173
00:09:38,626 --> 00:09:40,811
And given the fact that
he sponsors the Bulldogs,

174
00:09:40,837 --> 00:09:42,970
I thought it would be best
to respect his wishes.

175
00:09:42,996 --> 00:09:45,431
Clifford Blossom's had it out
for Reggie since day one.

176
00:09:45,457 --> 00:09:48,014
The Bulldogs are the mayor's
pride and joy, Archie.

177
00:09:48,095 --> 00:09:49,874
My strong advice,

178
00:09:50,544 --> 00:09:52,139
leave this one alone.

179
00:09:54,825 --> 00:09:56,592
But I'm glad you came to see me.

180
00:09:57,673 --> 00:09:59,202
There's something I want to give you.

181
00:10:05,371 --> 00:10:07,991
- Is that...
- Your dad's captain's patch.

182
00:10:09,552 --> 00:10:12,670
I know he'd want you wearing it for
your first game as team captain.

183
00:10:18,098 --> 00:10:19,522
Okay, Uncle Frank.

184
00:10:25,009 --> 00:10:26,256
I'm leaving.

185
00:10:26,337 --> 00:10:28,420
I'm going to stay with
my friend, Veronica.

186
00:10:28,446 --> 00:10:31,499
It'll just be the two of us in her
apartment doing whatever we want.

187
00:10:32,290 --> 00:10:34,428
When have you not, Elizabeth?

188
00:10:41,795 --> 00:10:43,811
Where did you learn how to do that?

189
00:10:43,854 --> 00:10:45,694
Pick a lock with a bobby pin.

190
00:10:45,975 --> 00:10:50,772
Don't laugh, but my Tracy
True Teen Detective Handbook.

191
00:10:50,798 --> 00:10:52,006
Laugh?

192
00:10:52,195 --> 00:10:54,186
Betty, I love those books.

193
00:10:54,212 --> 00:10:55,780
Okay, question.

194
00:10:55,806 --> 00:10:59,483
How quiet do we have to be in
here so as not to alert...

195
00:10:59,509 --> 00:11:02,920
His name is Smithers, and we
can be as loud as we want

196
00:11:02,946 --> 00:11:04,335
when we're in the apartment.

197
00:11:04,361 --> 00:11:06,578
It's just when we're going up
and down the back staircase

198
00:11:06,622 --> 00:11:08,233
that we have to be mindful,

199
00:11:08,474 --> 00:11:10,074
I told the boys that too.

200
00:11:10,454 --> 00:11:11,707
What boys?

201
00:11:12,142 --> 00:11:14,426
- Archie and Reggie?
- God, no.

202
00:11:14,452 --> 00:11:16,387
I actually want to have some fun.

203
00:11:16,499 --> 00:11:18,842
So I invited Kevin and Clay

204
00:11:18,868 --> 00:11:21,731
to come over after closing
up at the Babylonium.

205
00:11:26,508 --> 00:11:29,441
Father. I just got back
from the hospital.

206
00:11:29,621 --> 00:11:32,074
Please tell me the rumors about
basketball season continuing

207
00:11:32,100 --> 00:11:35,254
whilst Julian languishes
are just that, rumors.

208
00:11:36,114 --> 00:11:38,378
Your brother's always been a dunce.

209
00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:40,699
He made his bed, let him lay in it.

210
00:11:42,790 --> 00:11:47,145
As for the season, yes, Cheryl,
it will continue as scheduled.

211
00:11:47,523 --> 00:11:48,676
It must.

212
00:11:48,702 --> 00:11:52,324
Are you truly so desperate to
relive your glory days as a Bulldog

213
00:11:52,350 --> 00:11:55,324
- that you would forsake your own son?
- Yes.

214
00:11:55,760 --> 00:11:57,504
I was a Bulldog...

215
00:11:59,745 --> 00:12:02,770
and I'd do anything to go
back to those days again.

216
00:12:05,168 --> 00:12:09,106
When I first realized that a
winning team can unite a town.

217
00:12:11,228 --> 00:12:13,535
You give the people that,
they'll follow you anywhere.

218
00:12:13,561 --> 00:12:15,402
I certainly won't be shaking my pom-poms

219
00:12:15,428 --> 00:12:19,004
while my brother hovers
between life and death.

220
00:12:19,273 --> 00:12:20,738
Oh, yes, you will.

221
00:12:25,809 --> 00:12:27,915
You will put on your little happy face

222
00:12:27,941 --> 00:12:30,106
and you will cheer your little heart out

223
00:12:30,221 --> 00:12:32,832
until your spoiled pink lungs bleed,

224
00:12:33,328 --> 00:12:36,106
or you'll suffer a fate
worse than Julian's.

225
00:12:37,498 --> 00:12:40,402
Do I make myself clear?

226
00:12:49,255 --> 00:12:52,162
? I'm gonna wash that man
Right out of my hair ?

227
00:12:52,188 --> 00:12:54,966
? I'm gonna wash that man
Right outta my hair ?

228
00:12:54,992 --> 00:12:58,224
? I'm gonna wave that man
Right outta my arms ?

229
00:12:58,250 --> 00:13:01,537
? And send him on his way ?

230
00:13:02,621 --> 00:13:04,101
? Don't try to patch it up ?

231
00:13:04,127 --> 00:13:05,669
? Tear it up, tear it up ?

232
00:13:05,695 --> 00:13:07,052
? Wash him out, dry him out ?

233
00:13:07,078 --> 00:13:08,499
? Push him out, fly him out ?

234
00:13:08,525 --> 00:13:12,134
? Cancel him and let him go ?

235
00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:14,115
? Yea, sister ?

236
00:13:14,693 --> 00:13:16,325
Sing it, Betty.

237
00:13:16,755 --> 00:13:19,943
? If the man don't
Understand you ?

238
00:13:19,969 --> 00:13:23,271
? If you fly on
Separate beams ?

239
00:13:23,297 --> 00:13:26,466
? Waste no time
Make a change ?

240
00:13:26,492 --> 00:13:29,539
? Ride that man
Right off your range ?

241
00:13:29,565 --> 00:13:32,396
? Rub him out
Of the roll call ?

242
00:13:32,422 --> 00:13:35,630
? And drum him
Out of your dreams ?

243
00:13:38,344 --> 00:13:41,255
? If you laugh
At different comics ?

244
00:13:41,281 --> 00:13:44,894
? If you root for
Different teams ?

245
00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:48,013
? Waste no time
Weep no more ?

246
00:13:48,039 --> 00:13:51,303
? Show him what
The door is for ?

247
00:13:51,364 --> 00:13:54,138
? Rub him out
Of the roll call ?

248
00:13:54,164 --> 00:13:57,466
? And drum him out
Of your dreams ?

249
00:14:05,401 --> 00:14:08,586
? We went and washed
That man right outta our hair ?

250
00:14:08,612 --> 00:14:11,261
? We went and washed
That man right outta our hair ?

251
00:14:11,287 --> 00:14:14,487
? We went and washed
That man right outta our hair ?

252
00:14:14,513 --> 00:14:18,761
? And sent him
On his way ?

253
00:14:22,370 --> 00:14:24,254
- Care for a top-off?
- Yes, please.

254
00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:27,231
Thank you, Vee. This rum
is so sweet and yummy.

255
00:14:27,257 --> 00:14:29,706
Isn't it? I'll say
this about my parents,

256
00:14:29,732 --> 00:14:32,362
they keep their liquor
cabinet well-stocked.

257
00:14:32,464 --> 00:14:36,190
Kev, this is so much more of a kick
than when you and I were going steady.

258
00:14:36,216 --> 00:14:37,800
Oh, I agree.

259
00:14:38,214 --> 00:14:39,781
And speaking of dating,

260
00:14:39,807 --> 00:14:42,019
how was your Halloween
with Archie and Reggie?

261
00:14:42,045 --> 00:14:44,425
With everything that
happened, I forgot to ask.

262
00:14:45,531 --> 00:14:49,274
It seemed like something was
percolating with Archie

263
00:14:49,310 --> 00:14:53,097
and we did kiss, but then...

264
00:14:56,342 --> 00:14:59,659
I'll be honest. I thought
you and Reggie might've

265
00:14:59,959 --> 00:15:01,651
made a love connection.

266
00:15:02,758 --> 00:15:07,159
Well, now that we're talking
about both Archie and Reggie,

267
00:15:07,620 --> 00:15:09,769
Kevin, Clay,

268
00:15:10,063 --> 00:15:13,011
you fellas are always in the
boys' locker room together.

269
00:15:13,258 --> 00:15:14,417
Tell us.

270
00:15:14,701 --> 00:15:16,498
Who's packing the most heat?

271
00:15:16,524 --> 00:15:18,706
Veronica!

272
00:15:19,495 --> 00:15:22,747
- Hard to tell.
- Oh, come off it. We all know how it goes.

273
00:15:22,791 --> 00:15:24,464
It's after gym class.

274
00:15:24,490 --> 00:15:27,073
You're having a steam.
You're snapping towels.

275
00:15:27,737 --> 00:15:30,146
Are you seriously telling
us that neither of you

276
00:15:30,172 --> 00:15:32,675
has ever cast an eyeball their way?

277
00:15:32,713 --> 00:15:35,620
I will say that both Archie and Reggie

278
00:15:36,049 --> 00:15:37,442
both have a lot to be really proud of.

279
00:15:37,468 --> 00:15:38,925
I am not surprised.

280
00:15:38,951 --> 00:15:41,780
- I felt as much with Reggie.
- Okay,

281
00:15:42,071 --> 00:15:44,508
but, the real story

282
00:15:44,552 --> 00:15:46,162
coming out of the boys' locker room.

283
00:15:46,206 --> 00:15:48,706
- Yes. Julian Blossom?
- No.

284
00:15:48,740 --> 00:15:50,394
- Fangs Fogarty?
- No.

285
00:15:51,885 --> 00:15:54,440
Dilton Doiley.

286
00:15:56,389 --> 00:15:59,284
- No!
- It's always the little ones.

287
00:16:00,061 --> 00:16:02,063
Well, to Dilton Doiley

288
00:16:02,287 --> 00:16:04,548
and all the boys of Riverdale High.

289
00:16:04,574 --> 00:16:06,533
To all the boys.

290
00:16:37,151 --> 00:16:39,040
And now that you've met
our starting lineup,

291
00:16:39,085 --> 00:16:41,964
please give a big Riverdale welcome
to the man who's going to lead us

292
00:16:41,990 --> 00:16:45,073
to certain victory against
the Stonewall Stallions,

293
00:16:45,304 --> 00:16:47,737
and our new team captain...

294
00:16:49,582 --> 00:16:51,284
Archie Andrews!

295
00:17:00,955 --> 00:17:02,261
Are you okay, Cheryl?

296
00:17:02,932 --> 00:17:04,042
I'm fine.

297
00:17:04,068 --> 00:17:06,386
Just doing as is demanded of me.

298
00:17:07,210 --> 00:17:08,621
Captain Andrews,

299
00:17:08,740 --> 00:17:11,831
will you please say a few
words to your loyal fans?

300
00:17:11,857 --> 00:17:14,714
- Yeah, take us to victory, Archie!
- All right!

301
00:17:22,140 --> 00:17:26,673
The fact is, I'm not
really great with words,

302
00:17:27,582 --> 00:17:28,837
but...

303
00:17:38,317 --> 00:17:40,879
It was nice, what you said in the gym.

304
00:17:41,300 --> 00:17:43,855
Come on, Mrs. Thornton. I was awful.

305
00:17:43,926 --> 00:17:47,426
Well, it might not have been
the Gettysburg Address,

306
00:17:47,871 --> 00:17:50,629
but it's hard to speak
off the cuff like that.

307
00:17:50,742 --> 00:17:55,121
However, when you write,
you do so with passion,

308
00:17:55,391 --> 00:17:57,088
clarity, heart.

309
00:17:57,114 --> 00:17:59,613
Well, that's swell of you
to say, Mrs. Thornton,

310
00:18:00,336 --> 00:18:02,582
- but we both know that I'm not...
- No, no.

311
00:18:02,644 --> 00:18:03,996
Stop right there.

312
00:18:05,277 --> 00:18:10,840
I know putting pencil to
paper is not as exciting

313
00:18:11,204 --> 00:18:14,301
as being captain of a sports team,

314
00:18:14,942 --> 00:18:16,832
but I assure you it can be.

315
00:18:17,837 --> 00:18:19,622
And I hope you'll think about

316
00:18:19,648 --> 00:18:22,379
putting as much energy into your writing

317
00:18:22,406 --> 00:18:25,020
as you do into basketball someday.

318
00:18:29,942 --> 00:18:32,012
Holy hell, freckles.

319
00:18:32,488 --> 00:18:35,301
Well, from what I've been hearing,
you survived those crazy nuns,

320
00:18:35,327 --> 00:18:38,332
took out a killer and cleared your name.

321
00:18:38,552 --> 00:18:41,379
That's not bad for a teeny bopper.
Not bad at all.

322
00:18:41,754 --> 00:18:43,470
Thank you, Mr. Fieldstone.

323
00:18:43,496 --> 00:18:45,809
I'm really just jazzed to be back.

324
00:18:45,835 --> 00:18:49,074
Well, let's get you drawing
another story ASAP.

325
00:18:49,496 --> 00:18:51,368
Jughead here will write
a script for you.

326
00:18:51,394 --> 00:18:53,230
Oh, golly, we'd love that.

327
00:18:55,100 --> 00:18:57,324
I am looking at the dream team.

328
00:18:57,442 --> 00:18:59,988
So, pitch me. Sky's the limit.

329
00:19:00,014 --> 00:19:01,929
Name it. Anything you want to do.

330
00:19:01,955 --> 00:19:03,504
Well, in that case,

331
00:19:03,535 --> 00:19:06,676
I would love to do a sequel to
the "Milkman Cometh" story.

332
00:19:06,702 --> 00:19:09,027
I think that we could really
just make something...

333
00:19:09,053 --> 00:19:10,523
Anything but that.

334
00:19:10,676 --> 00:19:12,970
Forget about the milkman.
The milkman is dead.

335
00:19:12,996 --> 00:19:14,816
I mean, literally, you killed him.

336
00:19:14,951 --> 00:19:18,650
- He's old news.
- Well, Ethel and I were discussing that.

337
00:19:18,676 --> 00:19:20,611
"The Milkman Cometh" is still

338
00:19:20,637 --> 00:19:23,168
one of your best-selling
issues of all time.

339
00:19:23,194 --> 00:19:26,254
With everything that's happened
recently, why not capitalize upon it?

340
00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:28,770
Because the heat's on us right now.

341
00:19:28,796 --> 00:19:31,309
Everybody's talking about
the latest editorial

342
00:19:31,335 --> 00:19:32,867
that quack Werthers wrote.

343
00:19:32,893 --> 00:19:34,605
Hell, even the AP picked it up.

344
00:19:35,117 --> 00:19:38,379
We gotta be circumspect.

345
00:19:38,405 --> 00:19:39,965
For a little while, at least.

346
00:19:40,020 --> 00:19:44,246
So give me a story about
a zombie or a goblin.

347
00:19:44,272 --> 00:19:47,176
Anything but a milkman, capisce?

348
00:19:47,202 --> 00:19:51,371
From now on, consider
me lactose intolerant.

349
00:19:56,073 --> 00:19:58,597
As Coco Chanel allegedly said,

350
00:19:58,634 --> 00:20:00,822
"The best cure for a hangover

351
00:20:00,848 --> 00:20:02,981
is spending money on new clothes."

352
00:20:03,140 --> 00:20:06,681
It sounds better in French,
but the point still stands.

353
00:20:07,110 --> 00:20:09,470
Are you girls finding
everything all right?

354
00:20:10,199 --> 00:20:13,515
Mrs. Andrews, these pieces are stunning.

355
00:20:13,541 --> 00:20:16,283
- Your taste is tres magnifique.
- Thank you.

356
00:20:16,345 --> 00:20:18,652
Could you please have these
two dresses boxed up

357
00:20:18,695 --> 00:20:20,494
and sent over to the Pembrooke?

358
00:20:20,884 --> 00:20:22,267
Of course.

359
00:20:22,704 --> 00:20:25,337
- And yours too, Betty?
- Yes, please.

360
00:20:26,682 --> 00:20:28,447
You're staying there as well?

361
00:20:28,999 --> 00:20:30,322
Yes, ma'am.

362
00:20:30,348 --> 00:20:33,173
But don't worry, my mother
is copasetic with it.

363
00:20:37,690 --> 00:20:39,226
"Copasetic."

364
00:20:41,344 --> 00:20:42,970
What the hell? They've got Peppy!

365
00:20:43,024 --> 00:20:45,775
- Give our mascot back.
- Hey, simmer down, Red.

366
00:20:45,965 --> 00:20:48,663
You'll get your chance to
win him back on the court.

367
00:20:48,908 --> 00:20:51,041
Of course, Mantle there, he's a choker.

368
00:20:51,093 --> 00:20:53,312
Yeah, you put him under
pressure and he cracks.

369
00:20:53,338 --> 00:20:56,123
That's how it was when he
played for us at Stonewall.

370
00:20:56,149 --> 00:20:58,126
And dollars to donuts,

371
00:20:58,248 --> 00:21:00,970
he's gonna fold like a
sheet again this weekend.

372
00:21:02,526 --> 00:21:04,587
Shut your mouth before I give you

373
00:21:04,613 --> 00:21:07,251
- a freaking knuckle sandwich...
- Save it for the game.

374
00:21:07,853 --> 00:21:10,116
You know, we're real sorry
to hear about Julian.

375
00:21:10,142 --> 00:21:11,806
It was such a tragedy.

376
00:21:12,065 --> 00:21:16,673
But, hey, you know, we're thinking of getting
a wager going with you chumps, but...

377
00:21:17,304 --> 00:21:19,736
but, Stonewall doesn't
play for food stamps.

378
00:21:27,547 --> 00:21:28,634
Come on.

379
00:21:31,485 --> 00:21:33,052
I know these turkeys.

380
00:21:33,078 --> 00:21:35,791
I played with them, so I
know how to beat 'em.

381
00:21:36,066 --> 00:21:39,345
First up, Weston Wallis
has legitimate skills

382
00:21:39,371 --> 00:21:42,026
but can't sink a shot
from outside the key.

383
00:21:42,052 --> 00:21:44,447
Fangs, it's your job to keep him there.

384
00:21:44,473 --> 00:21:47,181
That way, he'll be tossing
up air balls all night.

385
00:21:47,541 --> 00:21:50,588
Nothing I dig more than
humiliating a rich boy.

386
00:21:50,716 --> 00:21:54,298
- Consider it done.
- Good man. Next up, Tank.

387
00:21:54,734 --> 00:21:58,126
Looks like Boris Karloff, but
panics when you crowd him.

388
00:21:58,179 --> 00:21:59,920
Archie, that's your target.

389
00:21:59,971 --> 00:22:02,220
Stay on him like the paint
on the side of a barn.

390
00:22:03,842 --> 00:22:06,236
Andrews, you with us?

391
00:22:07,853 --> 00:22:10,150
He's a barn, I'm paint. Got it.

392
00:22:10,472 --> 00:22:11,650
Righteous.

393
00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:16,080
What's eating you?

394
00:22:16,365 --> 00:22:18,916
Is it because Peppy got dognapped?

395
00:22:19,165 --> 00:22:22,384
Don't worry. We'll get
him back, guaranteed.

396
00:22:23,080 --> 00:22:24,416
It's not that.

397
00:22:24,734 --> 00:22:25,876
It's...

398
00:22:27,589 --> 00:22:29,439
I feel like an imposter.

399
00:22:30,513 --> 00:22:32,820
I shouldn't be the captain
of this team, Reg.

400
00:22:32,902 --> 00:22:34,306
You should be the captain.

401
00:22:35,493 --> 00:22:37,103
I mean, you're made for it.

402
00:22:37,169 --> 00:22:39,611
Heck, it's your dream.

403
00:22:40,348 --> 00:22:42,204
I don't think about that kind of stuff.

404
00:22:42,881 --> 00:22:44,796
As far as dreams, I don't have any.

405
00:22:44,950 --> 00:22:46,353
I have a plan.

406
00:22:46,868 --> 00:22:50,152
To win the game this Friday night
and then the game after that,

407
00:22:50,178 --> 00:22:52,681
and to keep on winning until I go pro.

408
00:22:55,048 --> 00:22:57,056
You got your eyes on the prize

409
00:22:57,620 --> 00:23:00,900
and you know what to do to get it. I
wish I could say the same about myself.

410
00:23:02,521 --> 00:23:04,275
Can't you, Captain?

411
00:23:11,143 --> 00:23:12,921
I play basketball

412
00:23:13,579 --> 00:23:16,601
because it's a way for me
to feel close to my dad.

413
00:23:17,952 --> 00:23:19,867
Not because it's my passion.

414
00:23:20,028 --> 00:23:21,359
So what's your passion?

415
00:23:21,776 --> 00:23:22,928
Cars?

416
00:23:23,641 --> 00:23:24,811
Girls?

417
00:23:26,751 --> 00:23:28,663
You wouldn't believe it if I told you.

418
00:23:46,635 --> 00:23:48,372
Hey, we talked about this.

419
00:23:48,500 --> 00:23:50,589
Didn't you hear what
Mr. Fieldstone said?

420
00:23:50,647 --> 00:23:52,622
We got an ixnay on the ilkman-may.

421
00:23:52,648 --> 00:23:53,786
I can't.

422
00:23:55,416 --> 00:23:57,208
I can't, Jughead.

423
00:23:58,061 --> 00:23:59,410
Well, what gives?

424
00:24:00,792 --> 00:24:03,802
Is it really so important to
do another milkman story?

425
00:24:04,006 --> 00:24:06,247
You know, since this
whole thing started,

426
00:24:06,497 --> 00:24:07,785
no one but you

427
00:24:08,247 --> 00:24:09,560
has believed me.

428
00:24:09,700 --> 00:24:13,130
People were telling me
that I was delusional

429
00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:16,614
or that I flipped a lid or
that I killed my parents,

430
00:24:16,640 --> 00:24:20,599
to the point where I started
to doubt my sanity.

431
00:24:20,625 --> 00:24:22,474
And now, the milkman is dead...

432
00:24:26,938 --> 00:24:30,341
and everybody is still trying to tell me

433
00:24:30,449 --> 00:24:33,333
what happened and how it happened.

434
00:24:33,426 --> 00:24:35,364
Why, I don't know.

435
00:24:37,973 --> 00:24:43,442
But I do know that I am so tired,

436
00:24:43,568 --> 00:24:47,068
of people telling me what I went through

437
00:24:47,094 --> 00:24:49,091
and what I experienced.

438
00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:54,583
I want to tell my story.

439
00:24:56,097 --> 00:24:58,411
Or at least a version of it.

440
00:25:01,783 --> 00:25:04,372
Even if it's just in a comic book.

441
00:25:05,272 --> 00:25:08,849
Well, hey, that makes a lot of sense.

442
00:25:09,790 --> 00:25:11,833
And you'll draw the heck out of it.

443
00:25:13,778 --> 00:25:16,989
We just have to figure out a creative
way to have our cake and eat it.

444
00:25:18,228 --> 00:25:21,099
Without a glass of milk, of course.

445
00:25:24,155 --> 00:25:28,411
This particular shade of pink
is Grace Kelly's favorite.

446
00:25:29,185 --> 00:25:31,346
It's from the most fantabulous

447
00:25:31,372 --> 00:25:33,763
makeup shop on Larchmont Boulevard.

448
00:25:34,052 --> 00:25:37,685
My mom used to take me and
we'd do exactly this.

449
00:25:38,595 --> 00:25:40,919
She'd paint my nails
right before bedtime.

450
00:25:41,652 --> 00:25:44,583
My mom stopped tucking
me in after I got my...

451
00:25:44,848 --> 00:25:47,176
"gift"
from Mother Nature.

452
00:25:47,532 --> 00:25:51,724
She said that I was now a woman
and didn't need to be coddled.

453
00:25:53,162 --> 00:25:57,160
It's funny. I practically ran
away from home, and she...

454
00:25:59,155 --> 00:26:01,652
doesn't seem to care.

455
00:26:03,789 --> 00:26:05,511
Will you look at us?

456
00:26:06,150 --> 00:26:07,753
Sixteen years old,

457
00:26:07,779 --> 00:26:11,621
living without our mothers,
effectively orphans.

458
00:26:12,941 --> 00:26:15,597
- Can I tell you something, Vee?
- Of course, Bee.

459
00:26:15,623 --> 00:26:16,839
Anything.

460
00:26:17,065 --> 00:26:20,214
I feel so different from
everyone else in my family.

461
00:26:20,243 --> 00:26:24,035
Sometimes I wonder if I was adopted.

462
00:26:24,127 --> 00:26:26,913
Is it just you and your parents?

463
00:26:27,096 --> 00:26:29,339
I have an older sister, Polly.

464
00:26:29,530 --> 00:26:32,411
But she left Riverdale as
soon as she turned 18.

465
00:26:32,437 --> 00:26:34,988
Do you ever talk to her
about how you feel?

466
00:26:35,470 --> 00:26:36,894
She's so busy.

467
00:26:37,800 --> 00:26:39,598
Well, if you were adopted,

468
00:26:39,641 --> 00:26:42,339
your family is the luckiest on Earth

469
00:26:42,365 --> 00:26:45,933
because you, Betty Cooper, are aces.

470
00:26:47,052 --> 00:26:49,511
Not to mention, beautiful to boot.

471
00:26:50,281 --> 00:26:55,418
You know, if we're divulging
our deepest, darkest secrets,

472
00:26:55,444 --> 00:26:58,997
I've always had this
paralyzing fear that...

473
00:26:59,678 --> 00:27:01,474
That I was a mistake,

474
00:27:02,724 --> 00:27:03,919
unplanned,

475
00:27:04,856 --> 00:27:08,317
and that my mother and father never
stopped resenting me for that.

476
00:27:08,755 --> 00:27:12,294
I mean, they were fine having me
around when I was a little doll

477
00:27:12,320 --> 00:27:14,366
they could dress up however they wanted,

478
00:27:14,492 --> 00:27:16,697
but when I finally became old enough

479
00:27:16,723 --> 00:27:19,302
to have my own mind
with my own thoughts...

480
00:27:20,905 --> 00:27:22,958
It was bye-bye, Veronica.

481
00:27:25,150 --> 00:27:26,654
Let's make a pact.

482
00:27:27,976 --> 00:27:31,911
To never grow up to be
anything like our parents.

483
00:27:36,736 --> 00:27:39,950
You know who I do think are
a happy and healthy couple?

484
00:27:40,806 --> 00:27:42,404
Kevin and Clay.

485
00:27:42,614 --> 00:27:44,398
Aren't they the dreamiest?

486
00:27:44,424 --> 00:27:47,509
I'm so happy for them.

487
00:27:47,535 --> 00:27:48,661
Me too.

488
00:27:50,675 --> 00:27:52,865
I'm also slightly jealous.

489
00:27:54,330 --> 00:27:55,888
On some level,

490
00:27:56,264 --> 00:28:00,888
it must be easier for two boys
to date than a boy and a girl.

491
00:28:01,765 --> 00:28:05,203
None of that "battle of the
sexes" stuff to navigate.

492
00:28:05,309 --> 00:28:06,638
Fun fact,

493
00:28:06,946 --> 00:28:10,544
I read in Dr. Kingsley's
book that 81% of girls

494
00:28:10,570 --> 00:28:14,056
experiment with other girls
before they turn 18.

495
00:28:15,036 --> 00:28:16,443
Isn't that shocking?

496
00:28:16,469 --> 00:28:18,200
Sounds about right to me.

497
00:28:18,228 --> 00:28:21,419
I mean, I've... I've
kissed a girl before.

498
00:28:22,704 --> 00:28:26,099
I won't say who, but you would know her.

499
00:28:27,173 --> 00:28:29,310
Oh, my gosh.

500
00:28:29,413 --> 00:28:30,732
Have you ever?

501
00:28:34,252 --> 00:28:35,630
No, I haven't.

502
00:28:37,802 --> 00:28:39,458
But I've thought about it.

503
00:28:40,386 --> 00:28:41,794
It's only natural.

504
00:28:43,735 --> 00:28:44,849
With who?

505
00:28:45,847 --> 00:28:47,115
With you.

506
00:28:49,670 --> 00:28:51,716
Is it okay that I said that?

507
00:28:51,892 --> 00:28:53,380
I'm glad you did.

508
00:28:55,873 --> 00:28:57,216
Do you...

509
00:28:58,307 --> 00:28:59,779
Do you want to try it?

510
00:29:02,503 --> 00:29:03,763
Me too.

511
00:29:17,606 --> 00:29:19,732
Miss Veronica, we're coming in.

512
00:29:20,677 --> 00:29:21,982
Smithers.

513
00:29:22,335 --> 00:29:24,865
I stand corrected, Mrs. Andrews,

514
00:29:24,904 --> 00:29:27,123
You were right about the squatters.

515
00:29:27,149 --> 00:29:29,623
A mother's intuition always is.

516
00:29:30,664 --> 00:29:33,810
Okay, girls. You need
to tell me everything.

517
00:29:36,888 --> 00:29:38,232
Julian.

518
00:29:39,032 --> 00:29:42,373
I know we don't always get along, but...

519
00:29:44,364 --> 00:29:45,724
I love you.

520
00:29:48,619 --> 00:29:50,474
Call me crazy, but I...

521
00:29:51,167 --> 00:29:53,580
I miss your grating voice,

522
00:29:53,606 --> 00:29:56,451
I miss your horsey laugh.

523
00:29:57,227 --> 00:29:58,466
Brother, dear...

524
00:29:59,452 --> 00:30:01,396
Please come back to me.

525
00:30:02,616 --> 00:30:05,076
If not for your own sake,

526
00:30:05,841 --> 00:30:07,231
then for mine.

527
00:30:09,093 --> 00:30:10,482
I beg of you.

528
00:30:10,508 --> 00:30:13,998
Oh, jeez. Would you stop it
with the waterworks, sis?

529
00:30:14,188 --> 00:30:17,318
- You're embarrassing both of us.
- Julian?

530
00:30:17,380 --> 00:30:20,365
Told a guy in a coma
he has a horsey laugh.

531
00:30:21,461 --> 00:30:23,146
I'm gonna remember that.

532
00:30:26,633 --> 00:30:28,583
Alice told you what?

533
00:30:29,478 --> 00:30:31,482
"I'm not your mother anymore."

534
00:30:31,513 --> 00:30:33,216
Unspeakable.

535
00:30:33,501 --> 00:30:36,420
A mother disowning her own child.

536
00:30:37,046 --> 00:30:40,748
And Veronica, your parents evicted you?

537
00:30:41,446 --> 00:30:44,654
Via telegram, via Smithers.

538
00:30:45,029 --> 00:30:46,935
You poor things.

539
00:30:47,285 --> 00:30:49,146
I knew something was wrong.

540
00:30:49,609 --> 00:30:51,089
But don't worry.

541
00:30:51,115 --> 00:30:53,412
I'm going to fix everything.

542
00:30:53,776 --> 00:30:57,248
Are we worried that the Mantles
may try to take legal action

543
00:30:57,274 --> 00:30:59,015
against us or the school board?

544
00:30:59,041 --> 00:31:00,771
Oh, don't be daffy, man.

545
00:31:00,959 --> 00:31:03,834
Oh, they'd never be able to find a lawyer
to represent them in a case like that.

546
00:31:03,860 --> 00:31:05,943
And even if they did, they wouldn't
be able to afford the fees.

547
00:31:05,969 --> 00:31:07,170
Of course you're right, Mr. Mayor.

548
00:31:07,196 --> 00:31:10,564
Yeah, well, in any case,
tell me a little bit more

549
00:31:10,590 --> 00:31:12,766
about the Mantle boy's replacement.

550
00:31:12,792 --> 00:31:15,325
Difficult keeping it all
hush hush, Mr. Mayor,

551
00:31:15,351 --> 00:31:17,623
but we just finalized the papers.

552
00:31:17,671 --> 00:31:20,677
Your new ringer from Boston, KO Kelly,

553
00:31:20,703 --> 00:31:22,966
will transfer to Riverdale
High as soon as next week.

554
00:31:22,992 --> 00:31:25,099
Once Mantle gets us that
win against Stonewall,

555
00:31:25,125 --> 00:31:26,736
we'll just swap him out

556
00:31:26,762 --> 00:31:30,157
for a normal, red-blooded
American lad, a real one.

557
00:31:30,279 --> 00:31:33,138
One that's just as good a
player, but more like us.

558
00:31:33,164 --> 00:31:36,427
Then I will send that Mantle packing.

559
00:31:38,369 --> 00:31:41,771
Of all the no-good rotten
things in this world.

560
00:31:41,991 --> 00:31:44,864
What kind of mother
disowns their own child?

561
00:31:44,939 --> 00:31:48,310
When you have a child, do you know
what your middle name becomes?

562
00:31:48,336 --> 00:31:49,779
Sacrifice.

563
00:31:49,993 --> 00:31:53,146
I mean, we mothers were
put on this planet

564
00:31:53,172 --> 00:31:55,224
to nurture our children.

565
00:31:55,250 --> 00:31:57,775
And here I thought
Penelope Blossom was bad.

566
00:31:57,904 --> 00:31:59,411
And you can bet your bottom dollar

567
00:31:59,437 --> 00:32:01,654
that I said the same
thing to Hermione Lodge.

568
00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:04,374
That you should both do
everything in your power

569
00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:06,141
to write these horrific wrongs

570
00:32:06,185 --> 00:32:08,662
and to regain your moral footing.

571
00:32:09,509 --> 00:32:11,162
And you had best pray

572
00:32:11,188 --> 00:32:13,724
that you can repair the
damage that you've done.

573
00:32:14,967 --> 00:32:16,771
Here you go, sweetie.

574
00:32:17,130 --> 00:32:19,959
Oh, so am I your daughter again?

575
00:32:20,617 --> 00:32:23,263
Of course. You and Ethel are.

576
00:32:30,316 --> 00:32:31,474
Archie.

577
00:32:33,199 --> 00:32:34,396
Cheryl.

578
00:32:34,526 --> 00:32:37,059
I heard the good word from
the bird about Julian.

579
00:32:37,085 --> 00:32:40,826
It is truly a miracle, but I need to
talk to you about something else.

580
00:32:41,096 --> 00:32:46,006
Namely, Reggie, and my father's
nefarious plans for him.

581
00:32:47,453 --> 00:32:49,115
They're planning what?

582
00:32:51,818 --> 00:32:55,295
After we play Stonewall, Clifford
Blossom's gonna cut you from the team

583
00:32:55,321 --> 00:32:58,890
and bring in some goofball ringer
from Boston named KO Kelly.

584
00:32:59,536 --> 00:33:03,091
How much you want to wager the new
ringer is a few shades lighter than me?

585
00:33:06,119 --> 00:33:08,255
Look, I'm in knots about this, Reg.

586
00:33:08,281 --> 00:33:09,794
What do you want to do?

587
00:33:09,820 --> 00:33:12,052
I want to finish what I
was brought here to do.

588
00:33:12,593 --> 00:33:16,083
I want to lead the Bulldogs to their
first championship in a decade.

589
00:33:18,128 --> 00:33:19,782
And I want to do it as Captain.

590
00:33:20,085 --> 00:33:21,654
Well, that's what I want too.

591
00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:23,677
Same with all the guys on the team.

592
00:33:24,082 --> 00:33:26,443
So let's see if we can
make it happen for you.

593
00:33:33,064 --> 00:33:34,587
What do you think, Mr. Fieldstone?

594
00:33:34,613 --> 00:33:37,123
- It's not about a milkman.
It's about a mailman. - _

595
00:33:37,149 --> 00:33:38,995
In case that wasn't obvious enough.

596
00:33:39,908 --> 00:33:41,275
It's subversive.

597
00:33:42,766 --> 00:33:45,990
But, it's kinda cheeky and I like that.

598
00:33:46,016 --> 00:33:48,886
Says something without
being ham-fisted. It's...

599
00:33:49,904 --> 00:33:52,417
Well, kiddos, I don't know
how to tell you this,

600
00:33:53,620 --> 00:33:55,605
but, I think it's brilliant.

601
00:33:55,631 --> 00:33:57,980
Oh, gee, thanks, Mr. Fieldstone.

602
00:33:58,006 --> 00:33:59,722
We tried other things.

603
00:33:59,776 --> 00:34:01,433
We just kept circling back to...

604
00:34:01,459 --> 00:34:03,102
The mailman. Yeah, I get it.

605
00:34:03,128 --> 00:34:05,573
That's a pretty neat
workaround, I must admit.

606
00:34:05,745 --> 00:34:07,722
But Werthers and the powers that be

607
00:34:07,748 --> 00:34:10,152
will not be as tickled as I am.

608
00:34:10,237 --> 00:34:13,667
You know, if we publish this, It's
gonna thicken the storm that's coming,

609
00:34:13,693 --> 00:34:16,044
and believe me, a storm is coming.

610
00:34:16,070 --> 00:34:19,206
Like the wrath of God,
a storm is coming.

611
00:34:19,462 --> 00:34:21,831
Well, the way I see it
is we have two options.

612
00:34:21,857 --> 00:34:23,589
We either bury our heads in the sand

613
00:34:23,615 --> 00:34:25,941
and pray that the storm
will pass over us.

614
00:34:25,967 --> 00:34:28,558
But, like you, I don't
really see that happening.

615
00:34:28,767 --> 00:34:31,946
Or, we run headlong into the thunder

616
00:34:32,066 --> 00:34:34,034
and thumb our noses at it.

617
00:34:34,964 --> 00:34:39,159
Jughead, you are wise beyond your years,

618
00:34:39,185 --> 00:34:41,019
- you know that?
- Shucks.

619
00:34:41,749 --> 00:34:43,394
Well, what do you think, girl genius?

620
00:34:44,206 --> 00:34:47,191
I vote we thicken this milkshake.

621
00:34:48,108 --> 00:34:49,628
To hell with it!

622
00:34:49,654 --> 00:34:52,558
I've always been a thumb my
nose at the world kind of guy.

623
00:34:52,584 --> 00:34:54,941
Bernie, call the printers!

624
00:34:55,581 --> 00:34:57,976
We got a comic book to publish.

625
00:34:58,004 --> 00:35:01,042
Shouldn't you be resting up
before the big game, boys?

626
00:35:01,361 --> 00:35:02,987
I want you at your best.

627
00:35:04,527 --> 00:35:06,558
We know what you have planned, sir.

628
00:35:06,928 --> 00:35:08,995
We're here to give it to you straight.

629
00:35:09,047 --> 00:35:11,658
We're not letting you replace
Reggie with another player.

630
00:35:11,925 --> 00:35:15,370
In fact, I'm turning over my captainship
to him. It's what he deserves.

631
00:35:15,396 --> 00:35:17,847
You don't have the authority
to do that, Andrews.

632
00:35:17,873 --> 00:35:20,198
Not even your uncle does, only I do.

633
00:35:21,627 --> 00:35:23,050
Well, in that case,

634
00:35:23,076 --> 00:35:25,125
if you don't make Reggie captain

635
00:35:25,151 --> 00:35:27,402
for the rest of the season, then I walk.

636
00:35:27,428 --> 00:35:28,441
Me too.

637
00:35:28,467 --> 00:35:30,667
And if Archie and Reggie walk,

638
00:35:30,693 --> 00:35:32,894
we all walk. We're a team.

639
00:35:32,920 --> 00:35:34,386
We stand together.

640
00:35:37,300 --> 00:35:40,245
I'm guessing it'd be pretty
embarrassing for the mayor of Riverdale

641
00:35:40,271 --> 00:35:44,042
to derail a championship
season out of what, spite?

642
00:35:46,229 --> 00:35:49,450
Well, let me make one thing
abundantly clear to you boys.

643
00:35:49,476 --> 00:35:55,066
I do not take kindly to threats.

644
00:35:55,123 --> 00:35:57,409
This isn't a threat, Mr. Mayor.

645
00:35:57,675 --> 00:36:00,237
Just laying out your options.

646
00:36:03,262 --> 00:36:05,003
So what will it be, sir?

647
00:36:22,845 --> 00:36:23,959
Hello?

648
00:36:25,475 --> 00:36:26,866
It's you.

649
00:36:27,069 --> 00:36:29,086
I was so worried your mom
was going to pick up.

650
00:36:29,112 --> 00:36:30,420
Veronica.

651
00:36:30,446 --> 00:36:33,287
That is so strange, I was
just about to call you.

652
00:36:33,338 --> 00:36:35,819
Well, I was only calling
to say good night,

653
00:36:36,248 --> 00:36:37,787
and that...

654
00:36:38,654 --> 00:36:39,935
I miss you.

655
00:36:40,326 --> 00:36:42,764
- What were you calling about?
- Same.

656
00:36:43,858 --> 00:36:45,366
Great minds.

657
00:36:48,338 --> 00:36:49,865
I love you, Bee.

658
00:36:51,992 --> 00:36:53,670
I love you too, Vee.

659
00:36:57,781 --> 00:36:58,983
Say,

660
00:36:59,610 --> 00:37:02,412
were you gonna go to
the big game tomorrow?

661
00:37:03,075 --> 00:37:04,194
Against Stonewall.

662
00:37:04,220 --> 00:37:07,459
I almost forgot, I guess I am. You?

663
00:37:07,954 --> 00:37:09,357
I suppose so.

664
00:37:10,012 --> 00:37:11,475
You want to sit together?

665
00:37:11,907 --> 00:37:14,693
That way, you can explain all
the esoteric rules to me.

666
00:37:14,752 --> 00:37:17,407
The few I picked up as a River Vixen?

667
00:37:18,061 --> 00:37:19,303
Fab.

668
00:37:20,495 --> 00:37:22,280
What should we wear, do you think?

669
00:37:29,761 --> 00:37:33,342
Before we head out, is there
anything you'd like to say, Captain?

670
00:37:41,660 --> 00:37:43,006
Just thank you.

671
00:37:43,209 --> 00:37:46,014
I know the only reason Mayor
Blossom rubber-stamped me

672
00:37:46,040 --> 00:37:48,795
is 'cause of the way you
fellas supported me.

673
00:37:51,530 --> 00:37:53,545
No one's ever done that for me before.

674
00:37:55,157 --> 00:37:56,358
Also...

675
00:37:59,414 --> 00:38:02,318
my folks made the trip from Duck Creek

676
00:38:03,635 --> 00:38:06,303
to watch my first game as captain.

677
00:38:09,344 --> 00:38:10,459
So...

678
00:38:12,422 --> 00:38:14,411
So let's win this for Reggie's folks.

679
00:38:15,373 --> 00:38:16,603
And for Peppy!

680
00:38:16,629 --> 00:38:18,202
For Peppy!

681
00:38:25,348 --> 00:38:27,120
Don't even give 'em a second to breathe.

682
00:38:27,146 --> 00:38:28,397
Count on that.

683
00:39:11,169 --> 00:39:12,833
From the opening tip-off,

684
00:39:12,859 --> 00:39:16,581
the Riverdale Bulldogs, led by
team captain Reggie Mantle,

685
00:39:16,607 --> 00:39:19,012
dominated the Stonewall Stallions,

686
00:39:19,095 --> 00:39:21,169
who broke school records in points,

687
00:39:21,195 --> 00:39:22,864
rebounds and assists.

688
00:39:22,889 --> 00:39:24,252
- _
- Indeed,

689
00:39:24,278 --> 00:39:27,395
all the Bulldogs treated
friends, family and neighbors

690
00:39:27,421 --> 00:39:29,575
to a night they won't soon forget.

691
00:39:29,601 --> 00:39:33,197
Playing bravely in honor of
their teammate, Julian Blossom,

692
00:39:33,223 --> 00:39:35,997
who, as we understand
it, is on the mend.

693
00:39:36,023 --> 00:39:38,833
While proving beyond
any shadow of a doubt

694
00:39:38,859 --> 00:39:42,646
that this was the team, led
by Mantle the Magnificent,

695
00:39:42,672 --> 00:39:46,700
that could take Riverdale all the
way to the state championship.

696
00:39:46,726 --> 00:39:48,176
At the final buzzer,

697
00:39:48,202 --> 00:39:50,510
in a show of good sportsmanship,

698
00:39:50,536 --> 00:39:52,419
the defeated Stallions shook hands

699
00:39:52,445 --> 00:39:54,458
with their victors at center court

700
00:39:54,484 --> 00:39:56,269
before returning the statue

701
00:39:56,295 --> 00:39:59,716
of Riverdale's beloved mascot, Peppy.

702
00:40:00,390 --> 00:40:01,613
So how's it feel?

703
00:40:02,338 --> 00:40:04,567
MVP and record breaker?

704
00:40:05,567 --> 00:40:08,623
I'm not gonna lie. I'm happy my
parents got to see me win tonight.

705
00:40:08,667 --> 00:40:11,614
Oh, they were so proud of you, Reg.
They were on cloud nine.

706
00:40:12,155 --> 00:40:13,450
You earned it.

707
00:40:14,718 --> 00:40:18,450
Which is why I, I wanted
to give you something.

708
00:40:29,959 --> 00:40:31,732
Your dad's captain patch?

709
00:40:31,885 --> 00:40:34,370
Archie, I... I can't.

710
00:40:34,396 --> 00:40:35,885
I want you to, Reg.

711
00:40:35,911 --> 00:40:37,229
It'd mean a lot to me.

712
00:40:37,453 --> 00:40:38,584
And to him.

713
00:40:46,157 --> 00:40:48,094
I'll honor him, I promise.

714
00:40:48,828 --> 00:40:52,516
And then, I'll give it back to
you at the end of the season.

715
00:40:56,993 --> 00:41:00,414
So are you, sticking around
on the team or what?

716
00:41:01,345 --> 00:41:02,602
I guess.

717
00:41:02,914 --> 00:41:04,500
Maybe for a little while.

718
00:41:05,033 --> 00:41:06,513
I gotta watch your back.

719
00:41:07,469 --> 00:41:09,148
What about writing poems?

720
00:41:09,873 --> 00:41:11,711
That's what you love to do, right?

721
00:41:11,973 --> 00:41:14,840
That's your passion, isn't it?

722
00:41:14,866 --> 00:41:15,905
Maybe.

723
00:41:16,794 --> 00:41:19,201
I don't know. I'm not
sure the world's ready for

724
00:41:19,227 --> 00:41:22,250
Archie Andrews, beatnik poet.

725
00:41:22,782 --> 00:41:23,960
Maybe.

726
00:41:25,384 --> 00:41:27,691
Ha, maybe not.

727
00:41:31,695 --> 00:41:33,201
For a brief moment,

728
00:41:33,227 --> 00:41:35,078
they were two teenage boys...

729
00:41:35,104 --> 00:41:36,983
friends, practically brothers,

730
00:41:37,009 --> 00:41:39,867
on the cusp of pursuing
very different dreams.

731
00:41:40,219 --> 00:41:43,859
Unaware that a storm was coming,
as Mr. Fieldstone said.

732
00:41:44,551 --> 00:41:47,367
Like the wrath of God, it was coming,

733
00:41:47,772 --> 00:41:50,375
and that all of us would be
smashed to pieces by it.
