Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:02,190 --> 00:00:06,686
There's an old adage,
"You can't go home again,"
2
00:00:07,170 --> 00:00:10,078
which was certainly ringing
true for us.
3
00:00:10,665 --> 00:00:14,932
Archie had been in a war,
Betty was an FBI agent,
4
00:00:15,140 --> 00:00:19,416
Veronica was married,
Toni was Queen of the Serpents
5
00:00:19,501 --> 00:00:21,498
and I was
a published writer.
6
00:00:21,751 --> 00:00:23,761
So why were we
only talking about
7
00:00:23,846 --> 00:00:26,318
how the town of
Riverdale had fallen
8
00:00:26,526 --> 00:00:29,632
and Archie's pipe dream
to somehow save it?
9
00:00:30,334 --> 00:00:31,737
Probably because
it was easier
10
00:00:31,821 --> 00:00:34,105
than the conversations
that awaited us.
11
00:00:35,326 --> 00:00:36,703
Why didn't you
reach out?
12
00:00:40,040 --> 00:00:44,371
I didn't think you wanted
me to after you left me that voicemail.
13
00:00:46,296 --> 00:00:48,382
On the night of your
book launch?
14
00:00:49,131 --> 00:00:50,378
After that,
I just assumed
15
00:00:50,463 --> 00:00:53,427
you didn't
want to hear from me.
16
00:00:55,722 --> 00:00:56,956
That wasn't my intention.
17
00:00:57,041 --> 00:00:58,720
I'm sorry if it came off
that way.
18
00:00:59,134 --> 00:01:01,073
It was nice
to see you,
19
00:01:01,770 --> 00:01:07,371
even if it's strange to be
back here, just deeply uncanny.
20
00:01:07,484 --> 00:01:11,234
Same old Archie, though.
Trying to save everyone.
21
00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:13,331
Good luck with that, dude.
22
00:01:14,199 --> 00:01:16,739
I mean I have
a book to write.
23
00:01:16,890 --> 00:01:18,673
Yeah, after Pop's
retirement party,
24
00:01:18,758 --> 00:01:20,529
I have to get back to
Quantico.
25
00:01:21,263 --> 00:01:23,643
It's good to see you, too,
Jug,
26
00:01:24,397 --> 00:01:27,035
even though it is
a bit weird.
27
00:01:32,705 --> 00:01:34,678
That's some rock on
your finger, Ronnie.
28
00:01:35,688 --> 00:01:38,524
- He must be a great guy.
- Chad?
29
00:01:38,778 --> 00:01:40,207
Yeah, he is,
30
00:01:40,359 --> 00:01:42,647
underneath
the bluster and bravado.
31
00:01:44,838 --> 00:01:46,631
What about you, Bugle Boy?
32
00:01:46,795 --> 00:01:48,979
I'm sure you've had a
swarm of lovers.
33
00:01:49,609 --> 00:01:51,172
I don't know about that.
34
00:01:52,403 --> 00:01:58,162
The last real relationship I was
in... was, well, it was with you.
35
00:02:01,538 --> 00:02:04,392
Devil-may-care fling
never hurt anybody, Archie.
36
00:02:05,458 --> 00:02:10,429
Besides, you should be having fun at this point
in your life. Because once you're married...
37
00:02:11,422 --> 00:02:14,625
Well, that's why this is
just a quick jaunt for me.
38
00:02:15,135 --> 00:02:18,097
I have to go back to my life,
my husband.
39
00:02:19,139 --> 00:02:20,410
Yeah, for sure.
40
00:02:25,728 --> 00:02:27,409
- Mom?
- Shh.
41
00:02:27,862 --> 00:02:30,232
I brought you a vanilla
milkshake, extra thick.
42
00:02:30,316 --> 00:02:33,110
Oh, thanks, sweetheart.
Will you put in the fridge?
43
00:02:33,194 --> 00:02:35,446
Keep your voice down.
The twins are finally asleep.
44
00:02:35,530 --> 00:02:36,822
Sure.
45
00:02:36,985 --> 00:02:39,629
- Is Polly home yet?
- Nope. Not yet.
46
00:02:40,827 --> 00:02:42,530
It's pretty late. Where is she?
47
00:02:42,996 --> 00:02:46,015
Oh, you know, out and about
at work. You know your sister.
48
00:03:19,616 --> 00:03:22,118
Jones, it's Samm.
Where the hell are you?
49
00:03:22,202 --> 00:03:25,538
And where are your pages?
Scribners... Forsythe Jones,
50
00:03:25,622 --> 00:03:29,375
you currently owe $9,876
to Premiere Credit.
51
00:03:29,514 --> 00:03:32,908
If you do not pay the outstanding
balance within 24 hours...
52
00:03:38,747 --> 00:03:42,178
So, how did the
Bughead reunion go?
53
00:03:43,097 --> 00:03:44,682
As well as it could have,
54
00:03:44,766 --> 00:03:47,184
considering not all of us
could be happily shacked up
55
00:03:47,268 --> 00:03:49,103
with our
high school sweethearts, Kev.
56
00:03:49,187 --> 00:03:51,897
Uh, FBI agent,
high school drama teacher.
57
00:03:51,981 --> 00:03:53,938
I'm technically not an
agent yet.
58
00:03:57,862 --> 00:04:00,906
-Oh, my God.
What? What is it?
59
00:04:00,990 --> 00:04:05,116
Charles. He kept files of everyone
in my family, including me and...
60
00:04:05,578 --> 00:04:08,897
tapes of our
phone conversations, I think.
61
00:04:12,585 --> 00:04:14,461
Edgar, is it
really you?
62
00:04:14,545 --> 00:04:16,630
No, bitch,
it's your sister.
63
00:04:16,714 --> 00:04:19,466
- What?
- And you're as good as dead to me now too.
64
00:04:19,550 --> 00:04:21,510
What the...
65
00:04:21,594 --> 00:04:26,782
Is that... - Me, calling Polly
on Halloween years ago.
66
00:04:30,687 --> 00:04:32,521
Let's just get right
to it, Daddy.
67
00:04:32,605 --> 00:04:34,440
I want back in on the
family businesses.
68
00:04:34,524 --> 00:04:36,420
I'm confused.
Don't you live in New York?
69
00:04:36,532 --> 00:04:40,613
As it so happens, Chadwick and
I are looking for a weekend home,
70
00:04:40,697 --> 00:04:42,381
possibly here in Riverdale.
71
00:04:42,990 --> 00:04:44,200
I see.
72
00:04:44,285 --> 00:04:48,453
Well, unfortunately for you, Hermosa
moved the rum business to Miami.
73
00:04:48,538 --> 00:04:52,833
To
Toni Topaz years ago.
74
00:04:52,917 --> 00:04:54,168
Without telling me?
75
00:04:54,252 --> 00:04:56,003
It must have slipped my mind.
76
00:04:56,087 --> 00:04:58,882
Like how you forgot to tell me
that you were marrying Chad.
77
00:04:59,340 --> 00:05:02,259
By the way, if you're truly
interested in a weekend home,
78
00:05:02,343 --> 00:05:04,511
might I suggest a property
in SoDale?
79
00:05:04,595 --> 00:05:07,181
Oh, you mean Stepford
for bougie mobsters?
80
00:05:07,265 --> 00:05:09,325
No, thanks. I'm good.
81
00:05:13,771 --> 00:05:15,481
So you want me to give
you a job?
82
00:05:15,565 --> 00:05:17,358
I just need some quick cash.
83
00:05:17,442 --> 00:05:20,444
Kinda hoping you could hook me
up with something short-term.
84
00:05:20,528 --> 00:05:23,489
You're lucky I'm even
willing to serve you, Jones.
85
00:05:23,573 --> 00:05:25,783
What? Why? What
the hell is he doing here?
86
00:05:25,867 --> 00:05:27,743
No way, Toni. No way.
87
00:05:27,827 --> 00:05:31,536
Gathering some research for
your next book there, Jones?
88
00:05:33,333 --> 00:05:36,752
Hang on. Are you guys
actually upset about my novel?
89
00:05:36,836 --> 00:05:38,462
You made the Serpents look like
fools in it.
90
00:05:38,546 --> 00:05:41,674
You mean the Vipers?
The Vipers were the good guys.
91
00:05:41,758 --> 00:05:43,300
I didn't use your actual names.
92
00:05:43,384 --> 00:05:45,678
You think people around here
couldn't figure out
93
00:05:45,762 --> 00:05:49,098
who, what was that one
character's name, "Toothy" was?
94
00:05:49,182 --> 00:05:50,683
Yeah, or Pop Eye?
95
00:05:50,767 --> 00:05:53,269
You mocked our Serpent
traditions and codes,
96
00:05:53,353 --> 00:05:55,562
and now you're asking for
our help?
97
00:05:55,646 --> 00:05:58,691
Toni, guys.
98
00:05:58,775 --> 00:06:01,527
Okay, I'll help.
I'll give you some advice.
99
00:06:01,611 --> 00:06:03,612
Watch your back, Jones.
100
00:06:03,696 --> 00:06:06,159
You've made a lot of enemies in
this town.
101
00:06:12,288 --> 00:06:14,581
Principal Weatherbee,
102
00:06:14,665 --> 00:06:17,376
as I wrote in my email, I'm here to
relaunch Riverdale High's RROTC program.
103
00:06:17,460 --> 00:06:20,671
Archie, I meant to reply, but
it's been chaotic, to say the least.
104
00:06:20,755 --> 00:06:22,381
What's up?
105
00:06:22,465 --> 00:06:24,133
It's looking like
Riverdale High might not be
106
00:06:24,217 --> 00:06:26,468
opening up its doors
next Monday.
107
00:06:26,552 --> 00:06:29,596
Like everything else in this town, our
budget's been cut almost to nothing.
108
00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:31,249
- Thanks to...
- Hiram Lodge.
109
00:06:32,308 --> 00:06:33,856
Is there anything
I can do, sir?
110
00:06:34,023 --> 00:06:37,313
Alice, you're on the PTA. Any word on
which way the school board's leaning?
111
00:06:37,397 --> 00:06:41,317
The board has some serious doubts.
I mean we're a skeleton crew here.
112
00:06:41,401 --> 00:06:45,112
Kevin, you're teaching what,
five classes?
113
00:06:45,196 --> 00:06:50,659
Drama, Debate, Biology, Gym and
Sex Ed.
114
00:06:50,743 --> 00:06:52,202
So are we
dead in the water?
115
00:06:52,286 --> 00:06:54,371
Not yet. There are some members
of the board
116
00:06:54,455 --> 00:06:56,332
that would like to see
the school stay open
117
00:06:56,416 --> 00:06:59,846
if we can prove that we have
the personnel and resources
118
00:06:59,931 --> 00:07:02,087
that are required,
which is questionable.
119
00:07:02,171 --> 00:07:04,715
Well, the board will hear
arguments before the vote, right?
120
00:07:04,799 --> 00:07:06,800
So we should all be there.
121
00:07:06,884 --> 00:07:10,095
I'll speak, and in the meantime,
let's target the board members
122
00:07:10,179 --> 00:07:12,097
who are still waffling and
work on them.
123
00:07:12,181 --> 00:07:15,059
If we lose this vote,
we lose this school.
124
00:07:15,143 --> 00:07:17,328
And that's another nail in
Riverdale's coffin.
125
00:07:20,094 --> 00:07:22,094
*RIVERDALE (US)*
Season 05 Episode 05
126
00:07:22,179 --> 00:07:24,058
Episode Title: "Chapter Eighty-One:
The Homecoming"
127
00:07:27,205 --> 00:07:29,205
Aired on:
February 17, 2021
128
00:07:46,915 --> 00:07:49,600
It's Tabitha, right?
Tabitha Tate?
129
00:07:50,470 --> 00:07:53,555
It is. And you're
Jughead Jones.
130
00:07:53,639 --> 00:07:57,318
Yeah, I am. Hey, I noticed that
you're looking for a new waiter.
131
00:07:57,403 --> 00:07:59,311
I'm definitely interested.
132
00:07:59,395 --> 00:08:03,023
Thanks. But this definitely
isn't the right job for you.
133
00:08:03,107 --> 00:08:04,817
You don't even know me.
134
00:08:04,901 --> 00:08:06,443
Also, you can't just sit here
all day using my internet.
135
00:08:06,527 --> 00:08:08,946
You have to actually
order food, not just coffee.
136
00:08:09,030 --> 00:08:11,782
And then you have to pay for
said food.
137
00:08:11,866 --> 00:08:14,910
My grandfather did things
his way, and I do them mine.
138
00:08:14,994 --> 00:08:19,056
And the first rule of my diner
is no running tabs.
139
00:08:32,136 --> 00:08:33,486
Toni Topaz.
140
00:08:34,305 --> 00:08:35,514
You lost, old man?
141
00:08:35,598 --> 00:08:39,059
It's okay, guys. I got this.
142
00:08:39,143 --> 00:08:42,104
Look, you can save your breath.
If you're here to bribe me
143
00:08:42,188 --> 00:08:45,958
or threaten me into giving up
the fight to save Riverdale High...
144
00:08:47,193 --> 00:08:49,778
- How many students do you have?
- A hundred or so.
145
00:08:49,862 --> 00:08:54,116
What if I offer them all a scholarship to
Stonewall? They'd be getting a world-class
146
00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:56,535
education at zero cost.
147
00:08:56,619 --> 00:08:59,288
Except for the fact that you're
on the board at Stonewall Prep,
148
00:08:59,372 --> 00:09:02,207
which means on some level, the
school must reflect your morals,
149
00:09:02,291 --> 00:09:04,835
which I'm not okay with.
150
00:09:04,919 --> 00:09:10,090
What if I told you that there was an open
counselor position with a corner office
151
00:09:10,174 --> 00:09:12,092
and a big, fat paycheck?
152
00:09:12,176 --> 00:09:13,886
Thanks, but no thanks.
153
00:09:13,970 --> 00:09:16,013
So we're playing hardball, huh?
154
00:09:16,097 --> 00:09:17,447
I guess so.
155
00:09:27,942 --> 00:09:30,319
You know, it used to be Kevin
and I would sneak peeks
156
00:09:30,403 --> 00:09:33,822
through that window,
hoping you were shirtless.
157
00:09:33,906 --> 00:09:37,701
- And now you're spying on?
- Ghoulies.
158
00:09:37,785 --> 00:09:40,204
They've turned the house into a
drug den.
159
00:09:40,288 --> 00:09:43,849
Well, that tracks with everything
my mom says about this block.
160
00:09:45,001 --> 00:09:46,477
I'm sorry, Arch.
161
00:09:47,420 --> 00:09:49,046
It's only temporary.
162
00:09:49,130 --> 00:09:51,590
Like Hiram Lodge trying to
close down Riverdale High.
163
00:09:51,674 --> 00:09:56,136
I'm taking this town back, Betty,
building by building, if I have to.
164
00:09:56,220 --> 00:09:57,780
Well, I can help.
165
00:09:59,056 --> 00:10:01,725
I mean, I trained with the FBI.
166
00:10:01,809 --> 00:10:07,623
I may just take you up on that, but
first, I need a little more information.
167
00:10:09,259 --> 00:10:11,126
Where's the rest of
your team, Sheriff Keller?
168
00:10:11,211 --> 00:10:12,334
You're looking at him.
169
00:10:12,419 --> 00:10:14,780
Mayor Lodge cut my budget to
the bone.
170
00:10:14,864 --> 00:10:17,407
I got no support staff and
no deputies.
171
00:10:17,491 --> 00:10:20,327
And I'm covering the whole damn
county by myself.
172
00:10:20,411 --> 00:10:24,289
Unless, of course, you count
Hiram's private security force.
173
00:10:24,373 --> 00:10:25,742
They're connected to SoDale?
174
00:10:25,827 --> 00:10:27,930
No, they work out of SoDale,
but they're corrupt as hell.
175
00:10:28,014 --> 00:10:30,045
You should who's
running the force.
176
00:10:30,129 --> 00:10:31,479
It's Reggie Mantle.
177
00:10:33,049 --> 00:10:35,968
Well, maybe Reggie can help me
with my Ghoulie problem.
178
00:10:36,052 --> 00:10:38,387
You call him,
he'll tip 'em off.
179
00:10:38,471 --> 00:10:40,597
I mean, he's probably getting
some kind of a kickback from them.
180
00:10:40,681 --> 00:10:42,683
You're not gonna get any help
from Reggie.
181
00:10:42,767 --> 00:10:46,895
Well, not knowingly, anyway.
You may not have any deputies left,
182
00:10:46,979 --> 00:10:49,022
but you still have their
old gear, right?
183
00:10:49,106 --> 00:10:52,859
Kevlar vests? Batons? Now you
might want to dust them off, Tom.
184
00:10:52,943 --> 00:10:57,823
I'm gonna do some recon first,
but after that, we're going in.
185
00:11:01,744 --> 00:11:05,372
I've been thinking a lot about your offer,
Trudy. Is that job still on the table?
186
00:11:05,456 --> 00:11:07,332
Hell yes, it is.
The Morris William Agency
187
00:11:07,416 --> 00:11:09,793
would love to have you as a
sports agent.
188
00:11:09,877 --> 00:11:12,004
But what about the
whole LA of it all?
189
00:11:12,088 --> 00:11:15,299
Well, I've been wanting to give
the West Coast a try for a while now.
190
00:11:15,383 --> 00:11:17,801
Let me make some arrangements
and I'll get back to you.
191
00:11:17,885 --> 00:11:20,220
-Okay?
Okay.
192
00:11:20,304 --> 00:11:21,555
First class, of course.
193
00:11:21,639 --> 00:11:24,182
Yes, of course, Miss Lodge.
194
00:11:24,266 --> 00:11:29,104
But I'm having a little trouble
with the credit card on file.
195
00:11:29,188 --> 00:11:31,231
Really?
196
00:11:31,315 --> 00:11:34,258
That doesn't make sense.
Let me get back to you.
197
00:11:35,319 --> 00:11:36,653
It's so weird, Chad.
198
00:11:36,737 --> 00:11:39,239
I was doing some online
shopping, and
199
00:11:39,323 --> 00:11:41,867
our American Excess card
was declined.
200
00:11:41,951 --> 00:11:44,202
In fact, all of our
credit cards were declined.
201
00:11:44,286 --> 00:11:45,747
Yeah, the same thing happened
to me.
202
00:11:45,832 --> 00:11:48,752
But don't worry. I'll have it sorted
by the time you get back to New York.
203
00:11:49,056 --> 00:11:51,118
Which is when, exactly?
204
00:11:51,711 --> 00:11:55,589
The retirement party's in two
days, so probably the day after that.
205
00:11:55,776 --> 00:11:58,133
Well, hurry.
206
00:11:58,217 --> 00:12:01,803
- I miss you.
- I will. I miss you too.
207
00:12:01,887 --> 00:12:03,282
Bye.
208
00:12:03,848 --> 00:12:06,223
Miss Veronica.
Excuse me for interrupting.
209
00:12:06,364 --> 00:12:08,185
No problem, Smithers.
What is it?
210
00:12:08,269 --> 00:12:10,854
I've noticed the same car
parked out front for two days now,
211
00:12:10,938 --> 00:12:12,898
a black sedan with
tinted windows.
212
00:12:12,982 --> 00:12:14,750
I fear you're being watched
213
00:12:15,025 --> 00:12:16,375
followed.
214
00:12:16,777 --> 00:12:18,987
I wouldn't be surprised.
215
00:12:19,071 --> 00:12:21,990
But is it a "Welcome back to
Riverdale" gift from my father
216
00:12:22,074 --> 00:12:26,328
or a not-so-subtle message
from my overpossessive husband?
217
00:12:26,412 --> 00:12:31,934
Either way, it's time to get creative
and bring an old friend out of mothballs.
218
00:12:34,462 --> 00:12:37,339
How high are you willing
to jump for these?
219
00:12:37,423 --> 00:12:40,258
Let's say twenty grand
for both.
220
00:12:40,342 --> 00:12:45,114
I'll take thirty, but it has to
be in cash. Like, right now.
221
00:12:48,851 --> 00:12:51,937
Also, you wouldn't by chance,
222
00:12:52,021 --> 00:12:56,483
happen to have any
tasteful, discreet
223
00:12:56,567 --> 00:13:00,195
ladylike revolvers tucked
away somewhere, would you?
224
00:13:00,279 --> 00:13:02,686
You know, this being
Riverdale and all.
225
00:13:03,011 --> 00:13:04,446
I might have something.
226
00:13:53,290 --> 00:13:55,459
Oh, my god, Polly!
227
00:13:55,544 --> 00:13:56,670
You gave me a heart attack.
228
00:13:56,755 --> 00:13:58,300
You're the one
pointing a gun at me.
229
00:13:58,385 --> 00:13:59,414
Sorry.
230
00:13:59,499 --> 00:14:01,089
Old habits.
231
00:14:01,173 --> 00:14:02,716
It's also 3:00 in the morning.
232
00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:05,569
Well, you can go back to bed,
I'm not a burglar.
233
00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:08,155
Hey, can I...
234
00:14:10,683 --> 00:14:12,993
make you a cup of tea,
at least?
235
00:14:20,401 --> 00:14:22,753
Polly, I want to apologize
to you.
236
00:14:25,948 --> 00:14:29,451
I wasn't there for you on
the other side of the Farm
237
00:14:29,535 --> 00:14:31,637
when you needed me most.
238
00:14:33,330 --> 00:14:36,583
Also for prank calling you
that year on Halloween,
239
00:14:36,667 --> 00:14:40,229
I really didn't mean
what I said.
240
00:14:42,047 --> 00:14:44,424
Well, it's a deep cut, Betty.
241
00:14:44,508 --> 00:14:45,859
Yeah, I know.
242
00:14:47,094 --> 00:14:48,654
I haven't forgotten.
243
00:14:52,224 --> 00:14:57,120
If it's not too late, I'd like for us
to be real sisters to each other.
244
00:14:58,647 --> 00:15:00,190
How long you in town for?
245
00:15:00,274 --> 00:15:02,025
Just a couple days.
246
00:15:02,109 --> 00:15:04,736
But once I finish at the
Academy, I'll be home a lot more.
247
00:15:04,820 --> 00:15:07,297
I'm surprised you're not
already running the FBI.
248
00:15:08,073 --> 00:15:09,199
I don't know about that.
249
00:15:12,870 --> 00:15:14,554
I've missed you, Betty.
250
00:15:15,581 --> 00:15:17,641
Mom, the twins...
251
00:15:19,168 --> 00:15:20,769
we've all missed you.
252
00:15:37,311 --> 00:15:38,645
Good morning.
253
00:15:38,729 --> 00:15:41,439
Good morning, honey.
How'd you sleep?
254
00:15:41,523 --> 00:15:43,483
Well, I woke up
when Polly got home.
255
00:15:43,567 --> 00:15:46,111
Does she usually stay out
that late?
256
00:15:46,195 --> 00:15:47,946
She's working
at that nightclub,
257
00:15:48,030 --> 00:15:49,406
The Roving Eye.
258
00:15:49,490 --> 00:15:51,758
She waitresses
a few nights a week.
259
00:15:53,994 --> 00:15:55,203
Is that a good thing?
260
00:15:55,287 --> 00:15:56,621
She helps with the mortgage,
261
00:15:56,705 --> 00:15:58,582
gets the twins
everything they need.
262
00:15:58,666 --> 00:16:00,375
She's doing her best.
263
00:16:00,459 --> 00:16:01,793
- We all are.
- Oh, I know.
264
00:16:01,877 --> 00:16:04,838
I just remember
the Roving Eye can be
265
00:16:04,922 --> 00:16:07,507
- sketchy.
- Okay, that's not fair, Elizabeth.
266
00:16:07,591 --> 00:16:09,384
You don't get to pop in,
take a look around
267
00:16:09,468 --> 00:16:11,887
and judge your sister.
Or me, for that matter.
268
00:16:11,971 --> 00:16:13,346
Ooh.
269
00:16:13,430 --> 00:16:15,324
Can you get that?
It might be Toni.
270
00:16:16,809 --> 00:16:18,518
Did you see
the morning paper, Alice?
271
00:16:18,602 --> 00:16:22,439
"Local school counselor runs
seedy bar and snake dances."
272
00:16:22,523 --> 00:16:23,659
It's a hit piece.
273
00:16:23,744 --> 00:16:25,678
Hiram Lodge is trying
to ruin my credibility
274
00:16:25,763 --> 00:16:26,934
in the eyes of
the school board.
275
00:16:27,018 --> 00:16:28,278
Well, I'll run damage control.
276
00:16:28,362 --> 00:16:30,322
I'll call each board member
if I have to.
277
00:16:30,406 --> 00:16:32,002
Good. In the meantime,
278
00:16:32,087 --> 00:16:34,951
if Hiram Lodge is trying to drag
the Serpent Queen down to his level,
279
00:16:35,035 --> 00:16:36,845
he's gonna get himself bit.
280
00:16:47,297 --> 00:16:49,549
- Archie, what's up?
- Jug.
281
00:16:49,633 --> 00:16:52,361
How's the Five Seasons?
Room service every meal?
282
00:16:53,178 --> 00:16:54,804
Morning, noon and night.
283
00:16:54,888 --> 00:16:56,973
Look, I got an idea
for Pop Tate's retirement gift,
284
00:16:57,057 --> 00:16:59,726
but I was wondering if maybe
one of us should say something.
285
00:16:59,810 --> 00:17:01,394
You know, give a speech
about Pop Tate.
286
00:17:01,478 --> 00:17:03,605
And since you're
the world famous writer...
287
00:17:03,689 --> 00:17:04,731
Yeah.
288
00:17:04,815 --> 00:17:05,941
Yeah, I'd love that.
289
00:17:06,025 --> 00:17:08,210
Okay, great. Thanks, Jug.
290
00:17:18,704 --> 00:17:20,622
Reggie,
it's good to see you, bro.
291
00:17:20,706 --> 00:17:21,998
I appreciate you coming out.
292
00:17:22,082 --> 00:17:23,583
Duty calls, Mantle answers.
293
00:17:23,667 --> 00:17:25,794
You having trouble
with your tenants, you said?
294
00:17:25,878 --> 00:17:28,046
No, I'm having trouble
with the gang bangers
295
00:17:28,130 --> 00:17:31,007
who are using my house
as a drug den, I said.
296
00:17:31,091 --> 00:17:33,652
Well, let's see if there's
any merit to your claims.
297
00:17:38,849 --> 00:17:42,102
It's messy, but I'm not
seeing any evidence
298
00:17:42,186 --> 00:17:43,745
of drug paraphernalia.
299
00:17:44,229 --> 00:17:45,956
Okay if we keep looking?
300
00:17:49,693 --> 00:17:51,319
Nothing in here,
but stale cereal.
301
00:17:51,403 --> 00:17:53,046
All right,
let's check upstairs.
302
00:17:57,659 --> 00:18:00,720
I'm sorry, Andrews. I didn't
see any contraband anywhere.
303
00:18:01,121 --> 00:18:03,081
Yeah.
304
00:18:03,165 --> 00:18:06,143
You know, it's almost like
somebody tipped off the Ghoulies.
305
00:18:10,631 --> 00:18:13,400
All right. Well, there's nothing
more for me to say or do.
306
00:18:14,551 --> 00:18:15,999
But thanks
for your help, Reggie.
307
00:18:16,084 --> 00:18:17,518
My pleasure, bro.
308
00:18:32,569 --> 00:18:35,495
Feels strange to think
of not working at this place.
309
00:18:35,580 --> 00:18:37,505
Well, on the bright side,
you won't have to deal
310
00:18:37,590 --> 00:18:39,159
with annoying customers
like me anymore.
311
00:18:39,243 --> 00:18:42,620
Now you know I had a lot worse
than you in here, Jughead.
312
00:18:42,704 --> 00:18:44,205
And it all worked out,
didn't it?
313
00:18:44,289 --> 00:18:45,999
I lived to see my retirement.
314
00:18:46,083 --> 00:18:48,001
And you, you're
a big-time writer now.
315
00:18:48,085 --> 00:18:50,128
- Always knew you'd make a good...
- I'm sorry, Pop.
316
00:18:50,212 --> 00:18:55,150
Uh, those are debt collectors.
317
00:18:59,555 --> 00:19:00,805
Hi there, gentlemen.
318
00:19:00,889 --> 00:19:01,959
Counter or booth?
319
00:19:02,044 --> 00:19:04,392
We're looking for someone.
Been known to hang around here.
320
00:19:04,476 --> 00:19:06,703
Jughead Jones. Seen him?
321
00:19:12,317 --> 00:19:16,821
No, I think I'd remember
a weird-ass name like that.
322
00:19:16,905 --> 00:19:18,423
What do you want with him?
323
00:19:19,700 --> 00:19:21,326
You just give us a call
if he comes in,
324
00:19:21,410 --> 00:19:22,952
okay, sweetie?
325
00:19:23,036 --> 00:19:26,139
Oh, I'll be sure
to do that, pumpkin.
326
00:19:26,373 --> 00:19:27,849
Bye now.
327
00:19:35,299 --> 00:19:36,925
Thank you.
328
00:19:37,009 --> 00:19:39,469
It's not the greatest
first impression.
329
00:19:39,553 --> 00:19:41,554
How much you need, Jug?
Maybe I can loan you some.
330
00:19:41,638 --> 00:19:43,598
I've been saving up...
331
00:19:43,682 --> 00:19:45,850
I'm low, but I'm not low enough
to take your retirement money.
332
00:19:45,934 --> 00:19:47,769
I'll figure something out,
I always do.
333
00:19:47,853 --> 00:19:50,063
Thanks for the interview.
See you tomorrow.
334
00:19:50,147 --> 00:19:51,940
Hey, Jones.
335
00:19:52,024 --> 00:19:54,501
If you still want it,
the waiter job's available.
336
00:19:56,153 --> 00:19:58,321
Okay.
337
00:19:58,405 --> 00:20:00,698
In a couple days,
could you just call them
338
00:20:00,782 --> 00:20:02,826
and vouch for me
and say I have a job?
339
00:20:02,910 --> 00:20:07,556
I'll send them half my weekly
salary so they don't break my legs.
340
00:20:08,749 --> 00:20:12,252
Yeah, I think I can do that.
341
00:20:12,336 --> 00:20:14,420
Long time
no see, Ronnie.
342
00:20:14,504 --> 00:20:17,465
Reginald, I know you've been
working for my father,
343
00:20:17,549 --> 00:20:19,551
- so let's skip the pleasantries.
- Fair enough.
344
00:20:19,635 --> 00:20:21,094
I need to buy a car.
345
00:20:21,178 --> 00:20:22,679
Nothing flashy,
just in good shape
346
00:20:22,763 --> 00:20:24,139
and with excellent gas mileage.
347
00:20:24,223 --> 00:20:25,348
I'm paying cash.
348
00:20:25,432 --> 00:20:27,183
Who you runnin' from?
349
00:20:27,267 --> 00:20:28,643
Your husband?
350
00:20:28,727 --> 00:20:30,019
Is that how you roll now?
351
00:20:30,103 --> 00:20:32,272
I'm not running
from anyone, Reggie.
352
00:20:32,356 --> 00:20:33,982
I'm taking the path
of least resistance,
353
00:20:34,066 --> 00:20:36,151
and I'd rather not leave
a paper trail.
354
00:20:36,235 --> 00:20:39,237
Now, will you sell me
a car or not?
355
00:20:39,321 --> 00:20:41,114
If you're in trouble,
talk to your dad.
356
00:20:41,198 --> 00:20:42,949
Like really, talk to him.
357
00:20:43,033 --> 00:20:44,993
'Cause he'll help you.
Even now, still,
358
00:20:45,077 --> 00:20:46,595
with whatever you need.
359
00:20:58,257 --> 00:20:59,799
You're sure you saw Polly?
360
00:20:59,883 --> 00:21:01,509
No doubt about it.
361
00:21:01,593 --> 00:21:03,469
So she's hanging with
the Ghoulies, probably using.
362
00:21:03,553 --> 00:21:06,306
Seems like that's a safe bet.
363
00:21:06,390 --> 00:21:08,867
- I'm sorry, Betty.
- I'm not sorry.
364
00:21:09,268 --> 00:21:10,852
I'm pissed.
365
00:21:10,936 --> 00:21:14,414
So my question is,
when do we kick their asses?
366
00:21:15,857 --> 00:21:17,400
All right, thanks
to Reggie Mantle,
367
00:21:17,484 --> 00:21:19,360
I have enough intel
to sweep and clear the site.
368
00:21:19,444 --> 00:21:21,070
How many Ghoulies
are in your house?
369
00:21:21,154 --> 00:21:22,906
I counted a dozen
in these zones.
370
00:21:22,990 --> 00:21:24,699
We hit 'em hard,
371
00:21:24,783 --> 00:21:26,310
- we hit 'em fast.
- Nice.
372
00:21:26,395 --> 00:21:28,255
It's been too long since the
Serpents rumbled with the Ghoulies.
373
00:21:28,339 --> 00:21:29,454
Calm down, Sweet Pea.
374
00:21:29,538 --> 00:21:31,206
I don't want
anyone dying today,
375
00:21:31,290 --> 00:21:32,624
especially not my boyfriend.
376
00:21:32,708 --> 00:21:34,167
Hopefully, they've
dropped their guard
377
00:21:34,251 --> 00:21:35,585
and we can find
some narcotics in the house.
378
00:21:35,669 --> 00:21:37,962
And like Kev said,
no one gets killed.
379
00:21:38,046 --> 00:21:39,547
None of us and none of them.
380
00:21:39,631 --> 00:21:41,007
Wouldn't mind breaking
a few bones, though.
381
00:21:41,091 --> 00:21:42,258
Hell, yeah.
382
00:21:42,342 --> 00:21:46,679
♪ Don't you ever feel sad ♪
383
00:21:46,763 --> 00:21:47,805
♪ Lean on me... ♪
384
00:21:47,889 --> 00:21:51,993
Okay. Three, two, one. Go.
385
00:21:52,561 --> 00:21:53,895
What the hell?
386
00:21:53,979 --> 00:21:55,413
Get 'em.
387
00:22:19,421 --> 00:22:20,630
You good?
388
00:22:20,714 --> 00:22:22,273
- Yeah, you?
- Yeah.
389
00:22:29,556 --> 00:22:30,640
Jingle Jangle.
390
00:22:30,724 --> 00:22:32,308
Just like the old days.
391
00:22:32,392 --> 00:22:34,310
They've got a lab set up
in the bathroom.
392
00:22:34,394 --> 00:22:37,021
Will that be enough to put
'em behind bars, Agent Cooper?
393
00:22:37,105 --> 00:22:39,582
Yeah, Kev, that should do it.
394
00:22:44,696 --> 00:22:46,114
The Roving Eye.
395
00:22:46,198 --> 00:22:47,824
Hi, this is Polly.
396
00:22:47,908 --> 00:22:49,826
I'm just calling to get
my schedule for the week.
397
00:22:49,910 --> 00:22:51,869
Polly Cooper?
398
00:22:51,953 --> 00:22:53,746
You haven't worked at the
Roving Eye for over a year.
399
00:22:53,830 --> 00:22:55,348
Who is this?
400
00:22:58,377 --> 00:22:59,961
Bad news.
401
00:23:00,045 --> 00:23:01,796
Two more teachers have
defected to Stonewall Prep,
402
00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:03,089
Ms. Crouton and Mr. Cedars.
403
00:23:03,173 --> 00:23:05,133
Damn it, Ms. Crouton!
404
00:23:05,217 --> 00:23:07,593
-That backstabbing...
We've got a bigger problem.
405
00:23:07,677 --> 00:23:09,721
I had one of my girls
break into my Hiram's office
406
00:23:09,805 --> 00:23:11,556
to see what dirt
we could use against him,
407
00:23:11,640 --> 00:23:13,808
and she found his secret agenda
for the town hall meeting.
408
00:23:13,892 --> 00:23:16,102
I love that it feels like we're
in an episode right now.
409
00:23:16,186 --> 00:23:18,354
And besides deciding
about Riverdale High,
410
00:23:18,438 --> 00:23:21,524
Hiram is also putting forth a
vote to unincorporate the town.
411
00:23:21,608 --> 00:23:24,319
Based on the receipts, seems as
though he has enough people bribed
412
00:23:24,403 --> 00:23:26,029
or terrorized
into passing the motion.
413
00:23:26,113 --> 00:23:27,989
Wait, unincorporate the town,
what does that even mean?
414
00:23:28,073 --> 00:23:29,866
It means that all the money
415
00:23:29,950 --> 00:23:32,201
that the town gets from
the state for public services,
416
00:23:32,285 --> 00:23:34,912
for maintenance,
for education, it goes away.
417
00:23:34,996 --> 00:23:37,373
It means that Riverdale
as a town, ceases to exist.
418
00:23:37,457 --> 00:23:40,460
So Hiram Lodge will finally
get what he's wanted for years...
419
00:23:40,544 --> 00:23:43,171
- The death of Riverdale.
- So his precious SoDale can thrive.
420
00:23:43,255 --> 00:23:45,131
But if that happens,
would we even be able
421
00:23:45,215 --> 00:23:47,175
to keep the school open
with the board's support?
422
00:23:47,259 --> 00:23:48,634
Technically, yes.
423
00:23:48,718 --> 00:23:49,844
But it's going to make it
much, much harder.
424
00:23:49,928 --> 00:23:51,346
So we need to fight harder.
425
00:23:51,430 --> 00:23:53,264
Alice, I'm going to need you
to go on RIVW
426
00:23:53,348 --> 00:23:54,849
and blow the whistle
on Hiram's plan.
427
00:23:54,933 --> 00:23:56,309
He was trying to keep it secret
428
00:23:56,393 --> 00:23:58,519
so no one would show up
and oppose him,
429
00:23:58,603 --> 00:24:01,356
but we need the public there so
they could vote against Hiram's plan.
430
00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:02,982
Okay, but what about
our teacher problem?
431
00:24:03,066 --> 00:24:04,859
I think I can maybe help
with that.
432
00:24:04,943 --> 00:24:08,321
Oh, do you know any
qualified teachers with degrees?
433
00:24:08,405 --> 00:24:10,448
Because that's what it takes
to be a public school teacher.
434
00:24:10,532 --> 00:24:11,783
What if Riverdale went private?
435
00:24:11,867 --> 00:24:13,201
That way we could choose
who we wanted.
436
00:24:13,285 --> 00:24:15,078
Yes, but we'd lose
all public funding.
437
00:24:15,162 --> 00:24:16,287
Well, if the town
unincorporates,
438
00:24:16,371 --> 00:24:17,288
we lose funding anyways.
439
00:24:17,372 --> 00:24:19,098
We need an investor.
440
00:24:20,208 --> 00:24:22,043
I think I might know someone.
441
00:24:22,127 --> 00:24:26,356
Archie, if you have any
favors to call in, now is the time.
442
00:24:28,592 --> 00:24:31,260
Reggie suggested
I come see you again.
443
00:24:31,344 --> 00:24:34,222
I've been running around town
trying to vamp my way out of a problem,
444
00:24:34,306 --> 00:24:37,183
when really I should be
facing it head-on.
445
00:24:37,267 --> 00:24:40,453
With, maybe, your help.
446
00:24:42,564 --> 00:24:44,440
Go on.
447
00:24:44,524 --> 00:24:48,986
Chad is threatened
by my "alpha-ness."
448
00:24:49,070 --> 00:24:53,199
Because of that, he can be
somewhat possessive and controlling.
449
00:24:53,283 --> 00:24:54,742
He was having me followed,
450
00:24:54,826 --> 00:24:58,079
but I just shot out
his goon's tires. So...
451
00:24:58,163 --> 00:25:00,081
Ah, young love.
452
00:25:00,165 --> 00:25:01,666
I remember those days.
453
00:25:01,750 --> 00:25:03,918
I knew you'd relate.
454
00:25:04,002 --> 00:25:07,338
Which is why I'd appreciate
you having a little chat with him,
455
00:25:07,422 --> 00:25:09,465
as only you can, Daddykins.
456
00:25:09,549 --> 00:25:10,925
Nothing too draconian,
457
00:25:11,009 --> 00:25:14,262
just tell him to stop trying
to manage me
458
00:25:14,346 --> 00:25:15,972
or track me when I leave town.
459
00:25:16,056 --> 00:25:17,432
Why don't you
tell him yourself?
460
00:25:17,516 --> 00:25:19,142
He's not taking my hints.
461
00:25:19,226 --> 00:25:23,146
But I'm betting the Hiram Lodge
462
00:25:23,230 --> 00:25:26,232
could be a lot more persuasive.
463
00:25:26,316 --> 00:25:30,628
And then you don't get your little
Barnard-educated hands dirty, is that right?
464
00:25:33,240 --> 00:25:34,115
Hmm.
465
00:25:34,199 --> 00:25:36,033
So,
466
00:25:36,117 --> 00:25:38,748
just to be clear, you're
officially asking me for my help?
467
00:25:40,247 --> 00:25:41,806
Sure.
468
00:25:42,582 --> 00:25:44,500
Yes, I am.
469
00:25:44,584 --> 00:25:46,311
Well, in that case...
470
00:25:47,671 --> 00:25:49,147
No.
471
00:25:50,507 --> 00:25:52,066
Come again?
472
00:25:53,677 --> 00:25:55,553
Remember you called me a dog
473
00:25:55,637 --> 00:25:57,811
and you told me that
I needed to be taught a lesson?
474
00:25:57,896 --> 00:25:59,139
It's about seven years ago.
475
00:25:59,224 --> 00:26:01,409
You were cruel, Veronica.
476
00:26:01,893 --> 00:26:03,436
Brutal,
477
00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:05,229
when my body
was just a mass of bruises.
478
00:26:05,313 --> 00:26:07,773
Well, now it's my turn
to teach you a lesson.
479
00:26:07,857 --> 00:26:10,234
I warned you from the start
480
00:26:10,318 --> 00:26:12,445
that no one
outside of this family
481
00:26:12,529 --> 00:26:15,531
would understand
the Lodge ambition.
482
00:26:15,615 --> 00:26:17,200
You made your bed.
483
00:26:17,284 --> 00:26:19,494
You're gonna have to deal
with Chad yourself.
484
00:26:19,578 --> 00:26:22,928
And if that means you have to to
crawl into the mud to do it, then so be it.
485
00:26:23,415 --> 00:26:25,374
You're a Lodge, after all.
486
00:26:25,458 --> 00:26:28,169
You never had any intention
of helping me, did you?
487
00:26:28,253 --> 00:26:30,004
You just wanted to hear me beg.
488
00:26:30,088 --> 00:26:33,191
Hmm. I assume you don't
need my help finding the exit?
489
00:26:42,517 --> 00:26:45,645
But Polly, it's not every day
that Pop Tate retires.
490
00:26:45,729 --> 00:26:47,855
- We can bring the twins.
- I told you I have to work.
491
00:26:47,939 --> 00:26:49,232
Can't you take the night off?
492
00:26:49,316 --> 00:26:50,942
Oh, my god. Mom,
I said get off my back!
493
00:26:51,026 --> 00:26:53,611
Polly, give Mom a break.
494
00:26:53,695 --> 00:26:56,005
It's fine. Polly has to work.
495
00:26:58,783 --> 00:27:01,344
Actually, I'm not so sure
she does, Mom.
496
00:27:02,412 --> 00:27:04,830
I know you don't
waitress at the Roving Eye
497
00:27:04,914 --> 00:27:06,749
and that you've been
hanging out with the Ghoulies.
498
00:27:06,833 --> 00:27:08,251
Elizabeth, stop it!
499
00:27:08,335 --> 00:27:10,127
So how exactly are you
making all of this money
500
00:27:10,211 --> 00:27:12,672
to help out with the mortgage
and support the twins?
501
00:27:12,756 --> 00:27:14,924
Are you dealing? Tricking?
502
00:27:15,008 --> 00:27:16,425
- Both?
- It's none of your business.
503
00:27:16,509 --> 00:27:19,011
Actually, it is
because I care about you...
504
00:27:19,095 --> 00:27:20,638
You don't live here.
505
00:27:20,722 --> 00:27:22,807
You deserted us, okay?
506
00:27:22,891 --> 00:27:25,017
Being a real sister doesn't
mean coming in for one day
507
00:27:25,101 --> 00:27:26,686
and telling me how
to live my life,
508
00:27:26,770 --> 00:27:28,938
especially when you
don't know anything about it.
509
00:27:29,022 --> 00:27:30,540
Wait, Polly.
510
00:27:49,250 --> 00:27:51,210
- Samm, how are ya?
- At the end of my rope.
511
00:27:51,294 --> 00:27:53,879
Scribners wants pages,
or their money back.
512
00:27:53,963 --> 00:27:55,715
Yeah, I know, I know.
513
00:27:55,799 --> 00:27:56,716
-I'm working on something else.
What?
514
00:27:56,800 --> 00:27:58,134
What have you been working on?
515
00:27:58,218 --> 00:28:00,011
Actually...
516
00:28:00,095 --> 00:28:01,846
Let me send it to you.
Let me know what you think.
517
00:28:01,930 --> 00:28:03,360
Might be enough
to convince Scribners
518
00:28:03,444 --> 00:28:04,473
that I'm not a one hit wonder.
519
00:28:04,557 --> 00:28:06,909
Okay, I'm e-mailing you...
520
00:28:07,268 --> 00:28:10,413
...right now.
521
00:28:19,781 --> 00:28:22,408
I'm grateful
for your help, Betty.
522
00:28:22,492 --> 00:28:24,660
Believe me, I'd rather be
dealing with this mess
523
00:28:24,744 --> 00:28:26,704
than the one I made
at my own house.
524
00:28:26,788 --> 00:28:28,431
I'm sorry to hear about that.
525
00:28:31,167 --> 00:28:32,501
It's okay.
526
00:28:32,585 --> 00:28:34,562
I'll be okay, I hope.
527
00:28:38,425 --> 00:28:40,343
Hey, after Pop's party,
I thought you and me,
528
00:28:40,427 --> 00:28:42,303
Jughead and Veronica
could hang out,
529
00:28:42,387 --> 00:28:43,763
just the four of us.
530
00:28:43,847 --> 00:28:44,972
We haven't done that yet.
531
00:28:45,056 --> 00:28:47,433
No, yeah, that's a nice idea.
532
00:28:47,517 --> 00:28:48,867
Let's do that.
533
00:28:50,854 --> 00:28:52,204
Cool.
534
00:28:57,235 --> 00:28:59,070
Hey, do you want some pizza?
535
00:28:59,154 --> 00:29:01,238
It's the least I can do
to thank you for everything.
536
00:29:01,322 --> 00:29:02,490
Yeah.
537
00:29:02,574 --> 00:29:04,801
Pizza. Yeah, that sounds great.
538
00:29:07,871 --> 00:29:09,413
I'm gonna take a shower first.
539
00:29:09,497 --> 00:29:10,848
Oh, I sh...
540
00:29:11,207 --> 00:29:13,042
I... me too.
541
00:29:13,126 --> 00:29:15,436
- Do you wanna go first?
- Should I go home first?
542
00:29:32,395 --> 00:29:34,747
♪ Say my name now ♪
543
00:29:36,357 --> 00:29:38,709
♪ Don't make me wait now ♪
544
00:29:40,570 --> 00:29:44,865
♪ I knew you weren't ready
For a girl like me ♪
545
00:29:44,949 --> 00:29:48,970
♪ My honey's only sweet
If you can take the sting ♪
546
00:29:58,463 --> 00:29:59,630
Betty, what just happened?
547
00:30:01,549 --> 00:30:03,467
I don't know.
548
00:30:03,551 --> 00:30:05,678
Something we've been wanting
to do since high school,
549
00:30:05,762 --> 00:30:07,513
but never got around to.
550
00:30:07,597 --> 00:30:10,141
Yeah,
sounds about right.
551
00:30:10,225 --> 00:30:13,436
- Just to be clear, we're...
- Friends.
552
00:30:13,520 --> 00:30:15,646
Just good old friends.
553
00:30:15,730 --> 00:30:17,273
We're both single adults.
554
00:30:17,357 --> 00:30:19,747
We're allowed to have fun
every now and then, right?
555
00:30:19,943 --> 00:30:21,902
Yeah.
556
00:30:21,986 --> 00:30:24,046
And it's okay
if we keep this to ourselves.
557
00:30:25,031 --> 00:30:27,199
Yeah. Veronica's
a married woman,
558
00:30:27,283 --> 00:30:31,220
and Jughead and I haven't dated
for seven years, so...
559
00:30:32,705 --> 00:30:34,457
I think it's okay.
560
00:30:34,541 --> 00:30:36,058
Okay, good.
561
00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:41,881
What a gift!
562
00:30:41,965 --> 00:30:43,132
Thank you, Archie.
563
00:30:43,216 --> 00:30:44,884
Oh, it's from all of us, Pop.
564
00:30:44,968 --> 00:30:47,136
It's a small token to show
how much you mean to us,
565
00:30:47,220 --> 00:30:49,221
to Riverdale High,
to the whole town.
566
00:30:49,305 --> 00:30:50,598
Yeah!
567
00:30:50,682 --> 00:30:53,184
You know, I had to
drop out of school
568
00:30:53,268 --> 00:30:56,645
to take over running
this place after my Pop,
569
00:30:56,729 --> 00:30:59,899
the original Pop, passed away.
570
00:30:59,983 --> 00:31:01,709
I never got to graduate.
571
00:31:02,944 --> 00:31:05,070
This means the world to me.
572
00:31:07,824 --> 00:31:09,383
Jug's gonna say a few words.
573
00:31:14,956 --> 00:31:17,786
I think sometimes it can be
hard to put our faith in this town.
574
00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:23,798
But I think Pop created
something really special here,
575
00:31:23,882 --> 00:31:26,091
created a place for
the lost and wayward souls
576
00:31:26,175 --> 00:31:27,818
of Riverdale to come to.
577
00:31:29,095 --> 00:31:30,971
And I think, that's more than
578
00:31:31,055 --> 00:31:32,807
jukebox or vinyl booths.
579
00:31:32,891 --> 00:31:36,118
It's... like a lighthouse
in the storm.
580
00:31:37,270 --> 00:31:39,247
And Pop himself,
581
00:31:39,856 --> 00:31:41,415
he's many things.
582
00:31:42,609 --> 00:31:45,110
He's a joker.
583
00:31:45,194 --> 00:31:47,738
He's a soldier.
584
00:31:47,822 --> 00:31:49,907
He's a cook.
585
00:31:49,991 --> 00:31:51,821
He's
a really good listener.
586
00:31:53,077 --> 00:31:54,954
He's also a father.
587
00:31:55,038 --> 00:31:57,682
He's a son, and a grandfather.
588
00:31:58,666 --> 00:32:00,101
And to many of us
589
00:32:01,502 --> 00:32:03,271
and to me personally...
590
00:32:07,842 --> 00:32:09,635
it's about the only reason
that I made it through.
591
00:32:11,137 --> 00:32:12,697
You gave us a home, Pop.
592
00:32:14,974 --> 00:32:17,702
Thank you.
593
00:32:19,646 --> 00:32:20,996
To Pop Tate
594
00:32:21,898 --> 00:32:23,357
who never let
the lights go dark.
595
00:32:23,441 --> 00:32:25,067
Pop Tate!
596
00:32:32,158 --> 00:32:34,118
Cheryl, I'm glad you came.
597
00:32:34,202 --> 00:32:36,036
I wasn't sure you would,
after I
598
00:32:36,120 --> 00:32:37,246
sent you my message.
599
00:32:37,330 --> 00:32:39,498
It sounded rather dire,
600
00:32:39,582 --> 00:32:41,667
plus, Pop always added
the drop of human kindness
601
00:32:41,751 --> 00:32:43,002
to whatever my order was.
602
00:32:43,086 --> 00:32:44,837
Have you considered my ask
603
00:32:44,921 --> 00:32:48,841
to fund Riverdale
and the new teachers it needs?
604
00:32:48,925 --> 00:32:50,885
It's the only thing that might,
605
00:32:50,969 --> 00:32:53,220
might... save the school.
606
00:32:53,304 --> 00:32:55,264
Look, I came here
to celebrate Pop,
607
00:32:55,348 --> 00:32:58,159
not get caught up in small
town politics, Antoinette.
608
00:32:59,227 --> 00:33:00,394
And I can barely afford
609
00:33:00,478 --> 00:33:02,646
Thornhill's renovations
as it is.
610
00:33:02,730 --> 00:33:04,982
Cheryl, I know you think
you're cursed,
611
00:33:05,066 --> 00:33:06,901
and the sins of your family
are so great,
612
00:33:06,985 --> 00:33:09,153
there's nothing you can do
to atone for them.
613
00:33:09,237 --> 00:33:11,113
But you're wrong.
614
00:33:11,197 --> 00:33:14,050
There's a war going on
in Riverdale for Riverdale.
615
00:33:14,659 --> 00:33:16,009
We need you.
616
00:33:17,954 --> 00:33:19,538
I'm sorry. I can't.
617
00:33:19,622 --> 00:33:21,206
It will start as
something good,
618
00:33:21,290 --> 00:33:24,268
and end up corrupted,
like everything I try to do.
619
00:33:26,170 --> 00:33:28,314
If you won't do it
for the town...
620
00:33:29,382 --> 00:33:30,941
would you do it for me?
621
00:33:32,093 --> 00:33:33,443
Please?
622
00:33:35,054 --> 00:33:37,573
If our love ever meant
anything to you,
623
00:33:38,725 --> 00:33:40,075
help us.
624
00:33:44,647 --> 00:33:45,981
If I gave you the money,
625
00:33:46,065 --> 00:33:47,855
who would these
new teachers even be?
626
00:33:51,946 --> 00:33:53,489
So you're really gonna
do this, huh?
627
00:33:53,573 --> 00:33:55,282
Well...
628
00:33:55,366 --> 00:33:58,243
Run the RROTC
out of your old high school?
629
00:33:58,327 --> 00:34:00,012
If I get a chance to, yeah.
630
00:34:01,414 --> 00:34:03,082
It's kinda why I wanted us
to sneak in here,
631
00:34:03,166 --> 00:34:04,516
the four of us.
632
00:34:05,585 --> 00:34:08,420
Hiram's trying to
shut this place down.
633
00:34:08,504 --> 00:34:10,395
And he's pushing to
unincorporate the town,
634
00:34:10,480 --> 00:34:11,905
which would wipe Riverdale
off the map.
635
00:34:11,989 --> 00:34:14,134
My father is nothing,
if not consistent.
636
00:34:14,218 --> 00:34:15,970
Oh, I think we can stop him,
637
00:34:16,054 --> 00:34:18,239
- or at least slow him down.
- How?
638
00:34:20,808 --> 00:34:22,434
We become teachers here.
639
00:34:22,518 --> 00:34:23,727
Mm...
640
00:34:23,811 --> 00:34:25,270
I know it sounds crazy,
641
00:34:25,354 --> 00:34:26,814
but it's also a way to
keep the school going,
642
00:34:26,898 --> 00:34:29,149
which means
if Hiram wins the vote,
643
00:34:29,233 --> 00:34:32,194
we still have a defendable
position, this school.
644
00:34:32,278 --> 00:34:35,572
And if we can save it,
we can give people at least
645
00:34:35,656 --> 00:34:38,033
one more reason
to stay in Riverdale.
646
00:34:38,117 --> 00:34:39,410
And in time,
647
00:34:39,494 --> 00:34:40,828
we can bring this town
back to life.
648
00:34:40,912 --> 00:34:42,262
Archie...
649
00:34:42,497 --> 00:34:43,539
I'm married.
650
00:34:43,623 --> 00:34:44,873
I have a life back in New York.
651
00:34:44,957 --> 00:34:47,459
Yeah, and I have
a novel to write.
652
00:34:47,543 --> 00:34:50,004
Veronica, plenty of people
commute to the city.
653
00:34:50,088 --> 00:34:52,506
And Jug, you always said,
654
00:34:52,590 --> 00:34:55,276
you do your best writing
in a booth at Pop's.
655
00:34:56,302 --> 00:34:58,053
And it's not gonna be long...
656
00:34:58,137 --> 00:34:59,632
a month or two,
657
00:34:59,717 --> 00:35:01,098
just to give Weatherbee
enough time
658
00:35:01,182 --> 00:35:02,975
to find permanent replacements.
659
00:35:03,059 --> 00:35:04,409
I'm in.
660
00:35:05,645 --> 00:35:07,312
Quantico can wait
a couple months,
661
00:35:07,396 --> 00:35:10,190
and I need to be here right now
for my mom and Polly.
662
00:35:10,274 --> 00:35:11,624
Thanks, Betty.
663
00:35:13,027 --> 00:35:14,377
Jug?
664
00:35:15,446 --> 00:35:17,236
I'd have to clear it
with my new job.
665
00:35:17,865 --> 00:35:19,450
But why not?
666
00:35:19,534 --> 00:35:22,661
I'd like to shape some
impressionable young minds.
667
00:35:22,745 --> 00:35:23,787
I'm in, too.
668
00:35:23,871 --> 00:35:25,497
I'll make it work with Chad.
669
00:35:25,581 --> 00:35:27,166
And considering that
what's happening here
670
00:35:27,250 --> 00:35:29,126
is all my dad's fault...
671
00:35:29,210 --> 00:35:31,587
I need to give back
more than anyone.
672
00:35:31,671 --> 00:35:34,006
And I didn't really wanna be
a sports agent anyway.
673
00:35:34,090 --> 00:35:35,924
That's awesome, Veronica.
674
00:35:36,008 --> 00:35:39,053
So... Bulldogs forever?
675
00:35:44,559 --> 00:35:46,477
Bulldogs forever!
676
00:35:48,020 --> 00:35:49,438
Before
the school board votes
677
00:35:49,522 --> 00:35:51,231
on the fate of Riverdale High,
678
00:35:51,315 --> 00:35:54,485
Toni Topaz has asked
to say a few words.
679
00:35:54,569 --> 00:35:55,652
Good afternoon!
680
00:35:55,736 --> 00:35:57,696
My name is Toni Topaz,
681
00:35:57,780 --> 00:36:01,283
and I am a guidance counselor
at Riverdale High.
682
00:36:01,367 --> 00:36:05,412
The point of a school board
is to make sure there's equity,
683
00:36:05,496 --> 00:36:09,083
that kids of all ages,
from all different backgrounds
684
00:36:09,167 --> 00:36:12,377
have equal access to education.
685
00:36:12,461 --> 00:36:18,300
Well, with the help of one
very generous donor,
686
00:36:18,384 --> 00:36:20,302
I'm happy to announce
that Riverdale High
687
00:36:20,386 --> 00:36:23,597
will be able to do that
as a private school.
688
00:36:25,266 --> 00:36:27,351
And unlike other
private schools,
689
00:36:27,435 --> 00:36:30,604
Riverdale will be tuition-free.
690
00:36:30,688 --> 00:36:32,940
And we're bolstering
our teaching staff
691
00:36:33,024 --> 00:36:37,361
with notable alumnus
like Sergeant Archie Andrews,
692
00:36:37,445 --> 00:36:42,324
FBI trainee and Yale graduate,
Betty Cooper,
693
00:36:42,408 --> 00:36:45,994
businesswoman and Barnard grad,
Veronica Gekko
694
00:36:46,078 --> 00:36:50,791
and acclaimed author,
Forsythe Jones III.
695
00:36:50,875 --> 00:36:52,835
So spread the news
far and wide,
696
00:36:52,919 --> 00:36:54,253
that Riverdale
and its children,
697
00:36:54,337 --> 00:36:56,588
will not be at the mercy
698
00:36:56,672 --> 00:37:00,425
of Hiram Lodge's
destructive whims.
699
00:37:00,509 --> 00:37:01,510
Thank you.
700
00:37:02,970 --> 00:37:04,321
That's very nice.
701
00:37:07,600 --> 00:37:09,476
That was better than
Kendall Roy's speech
702
00:37:09,560 --> 00:37:10,602
at the end of season two.
703
00:37:10,686 --> 00:37:12,437
And now, I'd like to introduce
704
00:37:12,521 --> 00:37:15,440
what I hope will be
my last motion as Mayor,
705
00:37:15,524 --> 00:37:19,420
a proposition to unincorporate
the town of Riverdale.
706
00:37:21,405 --> 00:37:23,007
All those opposed?
707
00:37:24,450 --> 00:37:25,926
All those in favor?
708
00:37:29,830 --> 00:37:31,498
Majority wins.
709
00:37:31,582 --> 00:37:34,268
The township of Riverdale
is hereby dissolved.
710
00:37:43,261 --> 00:37:45,095
What had taken
decades to build
711
00:37:45,179 --> 00:37:47,306
was toppled in
the blink of an eye.
712
00:37:47,390 --> 00:37:50,559
With the rap of a gavel,
Riverdale was no more.
713
00:37:50,643 --> 00:37:53,020
And yet, life continues.
714
00:37:59,443 --> 00:38:00,694
Samm, I was gonna call you.
715
00:38:00,778 --> 00:38:02,446
Jones, Scribners loved
your story
716
00:38:02,530 --> 00:38:03,880
about the old man.
717
00:38:04,824 --> 00:38:06,325
- They what?
- Yeah.
718
00:38:06,409 --> 00:38:08,035
They think it's your next book
and a slam dunk.
719
00:38:08,119 --> 00:38:09,620
Apparently, there's,
there's a huge market right now
720
00:38:09,704 --> 00:38:11,163
for tragic Americana,
721
00:38:11,247 --> 00:38:12,789
dying community,
722
00:38:12,873 --> 00:38:15,000
all of the miserable people
who live there,
723
00:38:15,084 --> 00:38:17,169
you know, we'll call it
Elegy for a Small Town.
724
00:38:17,253 --> 00:38:18,603
What do you think?
725
00:38:18,838 --> 00:38:20,214
Ah...
726
00:38:20,298 --> 00:38:22,841
No, I don't wanna
write about that.
727
00:38:22,925 --> 00:38:24,760
You don't have a choice, Jones.
This is your ticket
728
00:38:24,844 --> 00:38:27,054
under the literary grave
you dug for yourself.
729
00:38:27,138 --> 00:38:29,890
Now you need to deliver.
Understood?
730
00:38:29,974 --> 00:38:32,159
- Yeah, understood.
- Thank you.
731
00:38:48,117 --> 00:38:50,077
Hey, Mom. I checked upstairs.
732
00:38:50,161 --> 00:38:52,663
The twins are playing,
but Polly's still not home.
733
00:38:52,747 --> 00:38:54,331
I'm worried.
734
00:38:54,415 --> 00:38:56,041
You know your sister.
She gets angry, storms off.
735
00:38:56,125 --> 00:38:57,501
God knows when she'll be back.
736
00:38:57,585 --> 00:38:59,336
This is what happens.
737
00:38:59,420 --> 00:39:01,230
But this one's
on you, Elizabeth.
738
00:39:05,051 --> 00:39:06,760
I'm not
coming home just yet.
739
00:39:06,844 --> 00:39:09,596
I'm gonna stay in Riverdale
a little bit longer, Chad.
740
00:39:09,680 --> 00:39:12,057
Oh... why is that?
741
00:39:12,141 --> 00:39:15,560
My alma mater, Riverdale High,
has fallen on hard times
742
00:39:15,644 --> 00:39:17,104
and needs my help.
743
00:39:17,188 --> 00:39:18,814
So, I'll be teaching there.
744
00:39:18,898 --> 00:39:20,482
That's absurd.
745
00:39:20,566 --> 00:39:24,319
No, no. What's absurd is
you freezing our credit cards,
746
00:39:24,403 --> 00:39:26,780
especially since I made
most of the money
747
00:39:26,864 --> 00:39:28,448
that's in our joint accounts.
748
00:39:28,532 --> 00:39:30,284
Yeah.
749
00:39:30,368 --> 00:39:35,038
So, if they're not unfrozen
in the next, say, 30 minutes,
750
00:39:35,122 --> 00:39:37,124
I'll consider it
an act of aggression.
751
00:39:37,208 --> 00:39:39,084
You know, like you
having me followed.
752
00:39:39,168 --> 00:39:40,669
And the next time you see me,
753
00:39:40,753 --> 00:39:43,130
it'll be on Wall Street,
on the floor,
754
00:39:43,214 --> 00:39:44,840
when the markets open
Monday morning.
755
00:39:44,924 --> 00:39:47,259
And this she wolf
will tear out your throat
756
00:39:47,343 --> 00:39:49,052
in front of
all the other alpha dogs,
757
00:39:49,136 --> 00:39:50,637
with zero hesitation.
758
00:39:50,721 --> 00:39:52,639
Is that it, then?
759
00:39:52,723 --> 00:39:54,266
- Are we done?
- You have 30 minutes
760
00:39:54,350 --> 00:39:55,743
to reactivate our cards.
761
00:40:33,597 --> 00:40:36,700
- Jug.
- Hey... Sorry, it's late.
762
00:40:37,435 --> 00:40:39,144
Wondering if you could, uh...
763
00:40:39,228 --> 00:40:40,437
use a roommate, now that you're
764
00:40:40,521 --> 00:40:42,314
in this big, empty house
all by yourself.
765
00:40:42,398 --> 00:40:44,733
Yeah, what happened to
the Five Seasons?
766
00:40:44,817 --> 00:40:47,736
It's a little rich
for my blood.
767
00:40:47,820 --> 00:40:49,170
Come in.
768
00:40:58,916 --> 00:41:00,766
Hey, it's Polly.
Leave a message.
769
00:41:00,875 --> 00:41:03,361
Polly, it's me again.
770
00:41:03,836 --> 00:41:07,128
I wanted to say that I'm sorry
about what I said before.
771
00:41:07,573 --> 00:41:09,958
I really had no right
to judge you,
772
00:41:10,043 --> 00:41:12,427
especially after being gone
for so long.
773
00:41:12,511 --> 00:41:13,512
It wasn't my place.
774
00:41:13,596 --> 00:41:15,990
So, I wanna tell you that
775
00:41:16,075 --> 00:41:18,269
I love you,
and that I'm here for you.
776
00:41:18,380 --> 00:41:19,643
So just call me.
777
00:41:19,727 --> 00:41:21,978
And I'll come find you,
wherever you are
778
00:41:22,062 --> 00:41:23,980
or I'll see you
when you get home.
779
00:41:24,064 --> 00:41:26,666
Just please, please, please,
come home.
