1
00:00:01,936 --> 00:00:04,272
- Sixty-seven yearshave gone by.
2
00:00:04,304 --> 00:00:06,406
It's the present day.
3
00:00:06,439 --> 00:00:10,577
Since our last chapter,teenagers have become adults,got married,
4
00:00:10,610 --> 00:00:12,180
raised children of their own.
5
00:00:12,213 --> 00:00:14,714
Many have takentheir last breaths.
6
00:00:14,748 --> 00:00:19,253
This story tonight is aboutsaying goodbye to a townthat was once lost in time.
7
00:00:19,287 --> 00:00:22,689
But also, goodbye to the peoplewho once lived in that town.
8
00:00:22,722 --> 00:00:27,394
It starts near the end,with a woman namedElizabeth Cooper.
9
00:00:27,427 --> 00:00:33,201
She's 86 years old now,resting in a small roomin her granddaughter's house.
10
00:00:33,234 --> 00:00:35,502
She checks the obituariesevery day.
11
00:00:35,535 --> 00:00:37,939
You knew him in high school,
didn't you, Grandma Betty?
12
00:00:37,972 --> 00:00:40,274
Seems like
he was an interesting person.
13
00:00:40,308 --> 00:00:42,009
He was.
14
00:00:43,244 --> 00:00:45,046
Well, we all were.
15
00:00:47,248 --> 00:00:51,384
We had such
marvelous adventures.
16
00:00:51,418 --> 00:00:54,354
Oh, you wouldn't have
believed it, Alice.
17
00:00:56,224 --> 00:00:58,425
Well, that's it.
18
00:01:00,493 --> 00:01:02,696
That means
I'm the last of them.
19
00:01:07,500 --> 00:01:11,906
Alice, honey,
I want to go back.
20
00:01:11,939 --> 00:01:16,043
To Riverdale, one last time
before it's too late.
21
00:01:18,112 --> 00:01:22,083
I am forgetting
more and more every day.
22
00:01:22,116 --> 00:01:27,255
And I want to go back
before I forget everything.
23
00:01:27,288 --> 00:01:30,024
Well, let's see
how you're doing tomorrow.
24
00:01:30,057 --> 00:01:34,061
If you're up for it,
yes, we can take a drive
to Riverdale.
25
00:01:34,095 --> 00:01:35,462
Thank you, dear.
26
00:01:58,019 --> 00:01:59,020
Hello?
27
00:02:01,421 --> 00:02:05,592
Ah. I must have
fallen asleep.
28
00:02:05,625 --> 00:02:09,864
I was going through our...
Our yearbook.
29
00:02:11,132 --> 00:02:13,067
Trying to remember.
30
00:02:13,100 --> 00:02:17,305
- Remember what?
- Oh.
Everything, I suppose.
31
00:02:17,338 --> 00:02:20,308
I'm going back
to Riverdale tomorrow.
32
00:02:20,341 --> 00:02:23,543
My granddaughter
is taking me.
33
00:02:23,576 --> 00:02:25,947
Oh, going through
these pictures,
34
00:02:25,980 --> 00:02:30,151
I... I just wish
I could go back to...
35
00:02:31,152 --> 00:02:32,485
How it was.
36
00:02:34,355 --> 00:02:35,856
How we were.
37
00:02:35,890 --> 00:02:36,958
You can, Betty.
38
00:02:38,392 --> 00:02:40,828
You could pick a day
and I'll take you.
39
00:02:40,861 --> 00:02:42,462
Though, it might be
painful for you.
40
00:02:42,495 --> 00:02:44,398
Why should it be painful?
41
00:02:44,432 --> 00:02:46,434
Because you won't just be
living that day.
42
00:02:46,466 --> 00:02:48,169
You'll be seeing
yourself live it.
43
00:02:48,202 --> 00:02:49,669
Still...
44
00:02:51,205 --> 00:02:53,074
If you say we can, then...
45
00:02:55,376 --> 00:02:58,179
I wanna go back
to a day I missed.
46
00:02:58,212 --> 00:03:02,649
The day everyone got
their yearbook, senior year.
47
00:03:02,682 --> 00:03:06,354
I... I had the mumps
and I had to stay home, and...
48
00:03:08,322 --> 00:03:10,790
I never got
my yearbook signed.
49
00:03:10,825 --> 00:03:13,461
I've always regretted that.
50
00:03:13,493 --> 00:03:14,561
Then we'll start
in the morning.
51
00:03:15,795 --> 00:03:18,132
You just have to
walk through that door,
52
00:03:18,165 --> 00:03:21,002
and you'll have your day.
The day you missed.
53
00:03:28,442 --> 00:03:31,711
Oh, my goodness,
it's my room.
54
00:03:31,745 --> 00:03:34,849
It's exactly like
I remember it.
55
00:03:34,882 --> 00:03:36,083
Hello, room.
56
00:03:41,288 --> 00:03:42,123
Is that...
57
00:03:43,991 --> 00:03:45,725
Is that really
what I looked like?
58
00:03:50,197 --> 00:03:53,700
There were so many things
I wanted to change
about myself, back then.
59
00:03:53,733 --> 00:03:55,668
Why? I was perfect.
60
00:03:56,437 --> 00:03:58,039
We were all perfect.
61
00:03:58,072 --> 00:04:01,876
My window.
62
00:04:03,543 --> 00:04:06,147
How many sunrises have I seen
out this window?
63
00:04:07,448 --> 00:04:09,783
How many moons,
how many times...
64
00:04:14,788 --> 00:04:18,426
How many times have
I looked out this window
into Archie's?
65
00:04:18,459 --> 00:04:21,295
In the thousands, at least.
66
00:04:22,897 --> 00:04:25,199
Archie is about to have
a big talk with his mom
67
00:04:25,232 --> 00:04:27,567
about what he's going to do
after graduation.
68
00:04:30,703 --> 00:04:31,738
Hey, sweetie.
69
00:04:32,705 --> 00:04:33,908
Breakfast is ready.
70
00:04:33,941 --> 00:04:34,942
Thanks, Mom.
71
00:04:36,477 --> 00:04:37,610
Hey, Mom.
72
00:04:40,747 --> 00:04:42,817
I don't wanna be a pest,
73
00:04:42,850 --> 00:04:45,920
but I got to let Vic know
by tomorrow if I'll be joining
his crew on Monday.
74
00:04:48,823 --> 00:04:51,225
It just doesn't
make sense to me.
75
00:04:51,258 --> 00:04:55,563
Driving around the country
with some dusty road crew?
76
00:04:55,595 --> 00:04:59,300
Pouring concrete,
digging ditches.
77
00:04:59,333 --> 00:05:01,668
Well, it's like
President Eisenhower
said on the news.
78
00:05:01,701 --> 00:05:06,606
I'll be building the highways
that help connect
people and places.
79
00:05:06,639 --> 00:05:09,609
From coast to coast,
all the way to California.
80
00:05:09,642 --> 00:05:11,378
It'll give me something
to write about.
81
00:05:11,412 --> 00:05:14,415
But you've written
so many wonderful poems
in Riverdale.
82
00:05:14,448 --> 00:05:17,650
Mom, it's only gonna be
three months.
83
00:05:18,486 --> 00:05:19,652
And then I'll be back.
84
00:05:20,653 --> 00:05:24,624
No, Archie. No.
85
00:05:24,657 --> 00:05:26,626
You'll get one look
at the Pacific Ocean,
86
00:05:26,659 --> 00:05:29,296
and forget
all about Riverdale.
87
00:05:30,064 --> 00:05:31,866
Forget Riverdale?
88
00:05:33,534 --> 00:05:35,569
Fat chance.
89
00:05:35,603 --> 00:05:38,139
This will always be my home.
Our home.
90
00:05:42,309 --> 00:05:43,344
What?
91
00:05:44,512 --> 00:05:46,413
You're just like your father.
92
00:05:47,714 --> 00:05:49,950
He was full of wanderlust.
93
00:05:49,984 --> 00:05:52,752
He always dreamt about
settling in the West.
94
00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:55,389
He never did, but...
95
00:05:58,658 --> 00:05:59,726
Maybe you will.
96
00:06:01,629 --> 00:06:02,695
With my blessing.
97
00:06:04,697 --> 00:06:05,798
Thank you.
98
00:06:07,535 --> 00:06:08,435
I love you, Mom.
99
00:06:09,702 --> 00:06:10,838
I love you too, Archie.
100
00:06:13,607 --> 00:06:16,844
I don't remember
what happened to Mrs. Andrews.
101
00:06:16,877 --> 00:06:18,445
She bought
a dress shop.
102
00:06:18,479 --> 00:06:21,615
And then, one day,a woman named Brooke came in.
103
00:06:21,649 --> 00:06:23,651
They started a conversation,
104
00:06:23,683 --> 00:06:27,655
and a few weeks latershe moved intothe Andrews' house.
105
00:06:27,687 --> 00:06:29,990
They stayed togetheruntil the very end.
106
00:06:30,024 --> 00:06:32,560
Mrs. Andrews was always
such a kind woman.
107
00:06:33,894 --> 00:06:37,364
She once gave my mother hell
for disowning me.
108
00:06:38,999 --> 00:06:40,935
Stop.
109
00:06:43,703 --> 00:06:44,737
Is that...
110
00:06:48,375 --> 00:06:51,111
A baby shower
outside in the middle of June.
111
00:06:51,145 --> 00:06:52,712
Oh, no.
112
00:06:52,745 --> 00:06:53,914
Please, stop being
so dramatic, Polly.
113
00:06:53,948 --> 00:06:55,983
Look at those
cute little paper fans.
114
00:06:57,418 --> 00:06:59,719
Mom. Polly.
115
00:07:01,388 --> 00:07:03,157
You're alive.
116
00:07:03,190 --> 00:07:06,827
And you're so young,
and you're talking again.
117
00:07:06,860 --> 00:07:09,830
Elizabeth, what are you doing
out of bed?
118
00:07:09,863 --> 00:07:11,665
You have the mumps,
young lady.
119
00:07:11,699 --> 00:07:14,435
No, no, I feel fine.
I'm going to school.
120
00:07:14,468 --> 00:07:16,537
Mom, you did it.
121
00:07:16,570 --> 00:07:20,708
You divorced Dad,
you became a stewardess,
just like you dreamed.
122
00:07:20,740 --> 00:07:23,510
Well, my dream
was to see the world,
123
00:07:23,544 --> 00:07:26,779
not pass out peanuts
on a puddle-jumper
to Poughkeepsie,
124
00:07:26,814 --> 00:07:29,049
but life goes on.
125
00:07:29,083 --> 00:07:30,918
No, wait,
don't rush off, Mom.
126
00:07:30,951 --> 00:07:35,189
Just... Can I... Just...
Just look at me.
Just... Look at me.
127
00:07:38,926 --> 00:07:42,229
For heaven's sake,
I'm looking at you, Betty.
128
00:07:42,263 --> 00:07:45,132
And I'm seeing a girl who,
if she doesn't have the mumps,
129
00:07:45,165 --> 00:07:47,501
better hurry up
so she's not late for school.
130
00:07:47,534 --> 00:07:48,936
Right. Of course, school.
131
00:07:48,969 --> 00:07:50,871
First...
132
00:07:55,075 --> 00:07:56,210
I love you, Mom.
133
00:08:00,481 --> 00:08:01,315
Oh.
134
00:08:02,383 --> 00:08:03,450
I love you, Polly.
135
00:08:09,789 --> 00:08:12,359
I'm so, so happy
to see both of you again.
136
00:08:18,299 --> 00:08:21,835
Was my mom a stewardess
for very long?
137
00:08:22,303 --> 00:08:24,138
On the contrary.
138
00:08:24,171 --> 00:08:27,675
One night,
her pilot had a steak,
139
00:08:27,708 --> 00:08:30,110
three martinis
and a heart attack.
140
00:08:31,712 --> 00:08:33,147
And your momtook control of the plane
141
00:08:33,180 --> 00:08:35,949
and flew it from Riverdaleto Poughkeepsie,
142
00:08:35,983 --> 00:08:37,985
landing it safely.
143
00:08:41,689 --> 00:08:44,158
That's right.
144
00:08:44,191 --> 00:08:48,095
And one of the passengers
on the plane
asked her to dinner
145
00:08:48,128 --> 00:08:51,799
out of gratitudefor saving his life,
146
00:08:51,832 --> 00:08:54,168
and a few months later
they got married.
147
00:08:54,201 --> 00:08:55,936
He offered
to show her the world,
148
00:08:55,969 --> 00:08:59,473
and she wrote you postcards
from everywhere they went.
149
00:08:59,506 --> 00:09:02,042
Until one day
the postcards stopped coming.
150
00:09:06,447 --> 00:09:07,848
What about Polly?
151
00:09:07,881 --> 00:09:09,516
She had her twins,
152
00:09:09,550 --> 00:09:10,617
Juniper and Dagwood.
153
00:09:11,719 --> 00:09:13,320
She was very fulfilled.
154
00:09:13,354 --> 00:09:15,389
She led a happy lifewith her family,
155
00:09:15,422 --> 00:09:19,793
but she never got backto performingas Polly Amorous.
156
00:09:19,828 --> 00:09:22,262
I only ever saw
Polly perform once
157
00:09:22,296 --> 00:09:23,664
at the Babylonium,
158
00:09:23,697 --> 00:09:25,065
but I canstill picture her.
159
00:09:25,733 --> 00:09:28,202
She was such a star.
160
00:09:28,235 --> 00:09:29,470
Are you ready?
161
00:09:30,871 --> 00:09:32,239
To go back to school
one last time?
162
00:09:39,747 --> 00:09:41,081
Is this real?
163
00:09:42,549 --> 00:09:44,017
Or a dream?
164
00:09:44,051 --> 00:09:46,387
It's more like
something in between.
165
00:09:46,420 --> 00:09:50,157
But this is really
what happened on that day,
back in 1957.
166
00:09:50,190 --> 00:09:54,863
Everyone is so young
and beautiful,
and carefree.
167
00:09:54,895 --> 00:09:57,131
They have no idea, do they?
168
00:09:58,932 --> 00:10:00,501
How special this time is,
169
00:10:00,534 --> 00:10:03,604
how quickly it goes by,
like the blink of an eye.
170
00:10:03,637 --> 00:10:04,471
Bee?
171
00:10:05,773 --> 00:10:08,409
You're not supposed
to be here.
172
00:10:08,442 --> 00:10:10,845
Or did you have some kind of
miracle recovery?
173
00:10:10,879 --> 00:10:13,781
Veronica.
174
00:10:13,815 --> 00:10:17,718
Oh,
thank goodness.
175
00:10:17,751 --> 00:10:19,753
This is too wonderful
for words.
176
00:10:19,787 --> 00:10:23,757
Well,
there's an ego boost
I didn't know I needed.
177
00:10:23,791 --> 00:10:25,426
You should get the mumps
more often.
178
00:10:26,994 --> 00:10:29,229
Well, come on, then.
179
00:10:29,263 --> 00:10:31,465
The day has barely begun,
and we're already behind.
180
00:10:31,498 --> 00:10:34,401
There are about
a million things to do
before the last bell rings.
181
00:10:34,435 --> 00:10:36,470
We're getting
our yearbooks today.
Don't forget.
182
00:10:45,546 --> 00:10:47,781
I can't believe it, Vee.
183
00:10:47,816 --> 00:10:50,885
This is the last time
we'll be walking into
Riverdale High
184
00:10:50,919 --> 00:10:53,253
ever in our lives.
185
00:10:53,287 --> 00:10:56,557
Betty, we haven't even
graduated yet.
186
00:10:56,590 --> 00:10:59,326
It's too soon to be
swamped with nostalgia.
187
00:10:59,359 --> 00:11:03,096
That said, I'm feeling
a little verklempt myself.
188
00:11:03,130 --> 00:11:04,698
I'm gonna powder my nose.
Catch you later?
189
00:11:04,731 --> 00:11:05,999
Yes, later.
190
00:11:19,881 --> 00:11:22,649
Attention,Riverdale High students.
191
00:11:22,683 --> 00:11:23,984
Toni.
192
00:11:24,017 --> 00:11:26,086
As your senior class president,
193
00:11:26,119 --> 00:11:31,358
I'm reminding all students
to pick up their yearbooks
in the varsity lounge today,
194
00:11:31,391 --> 00:11:33,494
one per student.
195
00:11:33,527 --> 00:11:37,431
Now...On a more personal note,
196
00:11:37,464 --> 00:11:40,634
as we seniors
look forward to graduation,
197
00:11:40,667 --> 00:11:47,007
it's only fitting that I share
one final poem with you.
198
00:11:47,040 --> 00:11:51,011
It's entitled "Dreams",
by Langston Hughes.
199
00:11:52,513 --> 00:11:54,114
"Hold fast to dreams
200
00:11:55,682 --> 00:11:57,117
For if dreams die
201
00:11:57,150 --> 00:11:59,586
Life is a broken-winged bird
202
00:11:59,620 --> 00:12:01,154
That cannot fly
203
00:12:01,188 --> 00:12:02,991
Hold fast to dreams
204
00:12:03,023 --> 00:12:04,859
For when dreams go
205
00:12:04,893 --> 00:12:06,360
Life is a barren field
206
00:12:06,895 --> 00:12:09,029
Frozen with snow"
207
00:12:09,062 --> 00:12:11,398
Students of Riverdale High,
208
00:12:11,431 --> 00:12:14,234
we dreamed of a better
school for ourselves.
209
00:12:16,436 --> 00:12:18,138
And with
Principal Weatherbee's help,
210
00:12:18,907 --> 00:12:21,041
we made it happen.
211
00:12:21,074 --> 00:12:22,709
As some of us
head out into the world,
212
00:12:22,743 --> 00:12:26,713
please remember that we,
each and every one of us,
213
00:12:26,747 --> 00:12:30,751
have the power to make
real and lasting change.
214
00:12:33,053 --> 00:12:35,155
But we have to dream it first.
215
00:12:37,457 --> 00:12:39,126
I remember these.
216
00:12:40,427 --> 00:12:44,498
Articles about Rosa Parks
and the bus boycott.
217
00:12:46,533 --> 00:12:50,270
Toni always made sure that
Riverdale High was in dialogue
218
00:12:50,304 --> 00:12:53,041
with whatever greater issues
were affecting the country.
219
00:12:53,073 --> 00:12:54,274
It's true.
220
00:12:55,375 --> 00:12:57,444
And that
will continue, until...
221
00:12:57,477 --> 00:12:58,478
Don't... Don't...
222
00:12:59,646 --> 00:13:01,748
tell me what happened
to Toni, please.
223
00:13:03,985 --> 00:13:05,118
I don't wanna know yet.
224
00:13:05,152 --> 00:13:06,486
All right.
225
00:13:07,989 --> 00:13:09,122
I won't.
226
00:13:14,062 --> 00:13:16,363
Ew, barf,
what are you doing here?
227
00:13:16,396 --> 00:13:18,365
The word from the bird
is that you had the mumps.
228
00:13:18,398 --> 00:13:20,300
Back off. I don't want
your mumpy cooties.
229
00:13:20,334 --> 00:13:23,270
No, it's fine, Cheryl.
That was a false alarm.
230
00:13:23,303 --> 00:13:25,772
Can I please get my yearbook,
and will you sign it for me?
231
00:13:25,807 --> 00:13:28,542
Not right now, Betty.
As you can see,
I'm busy. Later.
232
00:13:28,575 --> 00:13:30,310
But what if
I don't see you again?
233
00:13:30,344 --> 00:13:33,614
You most certainly will,
as long as you're not germy.
234
00:13:33,647 --> 00:13:36,783
I expect you at my and Toni's
art show opening
at the Dark Room, tonight.
235
00:13:36,818 --> 00:13:39,486
And afterwards,
we're hosting a little
get-together at Thornhill.
236
00:13:39,519 --> 00:13:41,321
-I'll be at both.
-Of course you will.
237
00:13:41,355 --> 00:13:43,457
Now move along, Betty.
There's a line behind you.
238
00:13:43,490 --> 00:13:44,524
Toodles.
239
00:13:51,665 --> 00:13:53,133
Aw. Thanks, Fangs.
240
00:13:53,166 --> 00:13:54,267
No sweat, Bets.
241
00:13:54,301 --> 00:13:55,803
Fangs is used to
giving out autographs
242
00:13:55,837 --> 00:13:57,738
now that he had
a hit single on the charts.
243
00:13:57,771 --> 00:14:00,074
Baby, come on.
"Pixie Girl" only made it
to number eight.
244
00:14:00,108 --> 00:14:02,209
That's a huge accomplishment.
245
00:14:02,242 --> 00:14:06,279
And what finally got my parents
to sing another tune
about us getting married.
246
00:14:06,313 --> 00:14:08,016
And wait till you hear
his next song, Betty.
247
00:14:08,049 --> 00:14:09,917
Speaking of, we gotta motor.
248
00:14:09,951 --> 00:14:12,285
I'm supposed to be
at the recording studio
in half an hour
249
00:14:12,319 --> 00:14:14,721
to lay down some tracks
before going on my summer tour.
250
00:14:15,722 --> 00:14:16,790
Tour?
251
00:14:16,824 --> 00:14:20,028
Six weeks on the road
with an all-star lineup.
252
00:14:20,061 --> 00:14:21,795
A different city every night.
253
00:14:21,829 --> 00:14:24,264
They booked us
a super-boss tour bus
and everything.
254
00:14:24,297 --> 00:14:25,666
Catch you later, Betty.
255
00:14:29,536 --> 00:14:30,437
Bye.
256
00:14:33,306 --> 00:14:35,575
It didn't work outlike they had hoped, did it?
257
00:14:36,610 --> 00:14:38,645
No.
258
00:14:38,679 --> 00:14:42,050
Four weeks into his tour,
Fangs' bus was heading over
the Rocky Mountains
259
00:14:42,083 --> 00:14:43,918
when one of its tires blew.
260
00:14:43,951 --> 00:14:45,552
There were no survivors.
261
00:14:45,585 --> 00:14:46,586
Poor Fangs.
262
00:14:49,423 --> 00:14:53,293
He was the first one of us
to...
263
00:14:56,229 --> 00:14:57,397
pass away.
264
00:14:58,632 --> 00:14:59,633
But,
265
00:15:01,535 --> 00:15:03,437
that's his gold record,
over there.
266
00:15:05,006 --> 00:15:07,875
It'll hang
in this room for as long as
there's a Riverdale High.
267
00:15:10,978 --> 00:15:13,047
What about Midge?
268
00:15:13,081 --> 00:15:14,916
Well, thanks to Fangs' songs,
269
00:15:14,949 --> 00:15:18,285
Midge and their daughter
were taken care of for
the rest of their lives.
270
00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:20,620
I remember.
271
00:15:24,125 --> 00:15:27,195
I'm remembering more and more.
272
00:15:27,227 --> 00:15:29,931
Hey, Betty, what are you
doing for lunch?
273
00:15:29,964 --> 00:15:31,698
It's a beautiful day.
274
00:15:31,732 --> 00:15:33,567
Clay and I
are gonna eat outside
if you want to join us.
275
00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:34,668
Kevin.
276
00:15:36,904 --> 00:15:40,674
It is a beautiful day.
I would love to join
you and Clay.
277
00:15:44,879 --> 00:15:47,547
Gosh, I can't believe
this is the last time
278
00:15:47,581 --> 00:15:50,250
we'll ever have lunch
together at school, Betty.
Can you?
279
00:15:50,283 --> 00:15:52,385
I know.
280
00:15:52,419 --> 00:15:54,621
Everything's going
so fast, Kev.
281
00:15:54,654 --> 00:15:58,391
And Clay, I feel as if
I've barely got to know you.
282
00:15:58,425 --> 00:16:00,560
That'll change.
283
00:16:00,594 --> 00:16:02,462
Clay and I are gonna be
roommates next year.
284
00:16:02,496 --> 00:16:03,563
Aw!
285
00:16:03,597 --> 00:16:05,398
With me going to Columbia
to study literature
286
00:16:05,432 --> 00:16:08,702
and Kevin going to
NYU to study
musical theater writing,
287
00:16:08,735 --> 00:16:11,239
it just made sense
for us to get
an apartment together.
288
00:16:11,271 --> 00:16:13,174
-Mmm.
-That's what
we told our folks.
289
00:16:13,207 --> 00:16:17,812
Well, my mom and Clay's dad,they were swell about it.
290
00:16:17,845 --> 00:16:21,149
Just asked us to be carefullike they always do.
291
00:16:21,182 --> 00:16:23,283
And we always are.
292
00:16:24,351 --> 00:16:25,652
What happens to them?
293
00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:28,488
Nothing awful, I hope.
294
00:16:28,522 --> 00:16:29,891
No.
295
00:16:29,924 --> 00:16:33,293
They lived a very spirited life
in the heart of Harlem.
296
00:16:33,326 --> 00:16:35,229
Yes, I remembervisiting them.
297
00:16:35,263 --> 00:16:37,430
All they had to dowas open a window,
298
00:16:37,464 --> 00:16:43,070
and an entire universeof music and art would pour in.
299
00:16:43,104 --> 00:16:47,208
Clay becamea tenured professorat Columbia University.
300
00:16:47,241 --> 00:16:50,510
And Kevin startedan off-Broadwaytheater company.
301
00:16:50,544 --> 00:16:54,115
They saw and survived so muchfrom that apartment.
302
00:16:54,148 --> 00:16:58,152
Kevin was 82
when he went to sleep
and never woke up.
303
00:16:58,186 --> 00:17:00,021
Clay passed awaya few weeks later.
304
00:17:00,054 --> 00:17:02,656
He went outto enjoy some sunin Central Park,
305
00:17:02,689 --> 00:17:04,357
sat on a benchto feed some pigeons,
306
00:17:05,293 --> 00:17:06,493
and that was that.
307
00:17:09,163 --> 00:17:10,932
Hey, Betty, you okay?
308
00:17:14,334 --> 00:17:15,535
Yeah.
309
00:17:17,138 --> 00:17:20,407
Yeah, I was just thinking
about you and Clay and how...
310
00:17:23,343 --> 00:17:25,112
You two are soulmates.
311
00:17:26,180 --> 00:17:28,216
Sorry. I know I'm being silly.
312
00:17:28,249 --> 00:17:30,517
Well, um,
speaking about soulmates,
313
00:17:30,550 --> 00:17:32,253
what about you guys?
314
00:17:32,286 --> 00:17:34,387
Have the four of you
figured out
what you're gonna do yet?
315
00:17:36,356 --> 00:17:38,491
The four of us?
What do you mean?
316
00:17:38,525 --> 00:17:42,096
Betty, it's us, Clay and I.
We know the truth.
317
00:17:42,129 --> 00:17:45,132
But if you want, even though
it's the last day of school,
318
00:17:45,166 --> 00:17:49,502
we're happy to keep up the ruse
that you're only dating Archie
and not the others.
319
00:17:50,204 --> 00:17:51,072
The others.
320
00:17:51,105 --> 00:17:52,572
What?
321
00:17:52,606 --> 00:17:55,375
Come on. Don't tell me
you've suddenly forgotten
322
00:17:55,408 --> 00:17:56,911
that you, Archie,
Veronica and Jughead
323
00:17:56,944 --> 00:17:59,579
have been in a quad
this entire last year.
324
00:18:01,983 --> 00:18:02,950
A quad?
325
00:18:29,609 --> 00:18:32,246
What are you so happy about,
little miss mumps?
326
00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:35,349
Oh, I'm just remembering
327
00:18:35,383 --> 00:18:39,220
where I was a year ago.
328
00:18:39,253 --> 00:18:44,591
Feeling boxed in
by my mother's expectations
and society's rules.
329
00:18:44,624 --> 00:18:46,426
Fighting to have
my voice heard.
330
00:18:46,459 --> 00:18:48,495
Yes, yes, we all read
the Teenage Mystique.
331
00:18:49,096 --> 00:18:50,530
And now?
332
00:18:50,563 --> 00:18:53,500
And now I'm remembering,
333
00:18:55,669 --> 00:18:57,939
that it's been
a really fun year.
334
00:18:59,307 --> 00:19:00,674
Ugh.
335
00:19:03,177 --> 00:19:06,446
- Thank you for signingmy yearbook, Reggie.
336
00:19:06,479 --> 00:19:09,183
Anything for the gal
who helped me fix up Bella.
337
00:19:09,216 --> 00:19:10,818
Got to say, though.
You and me
338
00:19:10,851 --> 00:19:13,254
could have had
one hell of a senior year
339
00:19:13,287 --> 00:19:15,056
taking Bella up
to Lover's Lane.
340
00:19:15,089 --> 00:19:19,459
If only you'd chosen me
over chowderhead Andrews.
341
00:19:19,492 --> 00:19:22,595
I didn't choose Archie
over you, Reggie.
342
00:19:22,629 --> 00:19:25,066
Or over Jughead,
for that matter.
343
00:19:27,335 --> 00:19:29,437
Can you keep a secret?
344
00:19:29,469 --> 00:19:31,238
One that only
a handful of people know?
345
00:19:32,139 --> 00:19:33,341
Yeah?
346
00:19:33,374 --> 00:19:35,977
Turns out, after
Angel Tabitha's last visit,
347
00:19:36,010 --> 00:19:40,448
I remembered what it was like
being with Jughead
348
00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:42,450
and being with Archie.
349
00:19:42,482 --> 00:19:43,683
And Archie and Veronica
remembered
350
00:19:43,717 --> 00:19:45,152
what it was like
being with each other.
351
00:19:45,186 --> 00:19:47,955
But Veronica and Jughead
had just started a thing,
352
00:19:47,989 --> 00:19:51,025
and remembering
all of that, sort of, just,
353
00:19:51,058 --> 00:19:54,694
took the pressure off of us
having to make a single choice.
354
00:19:54,728 --> 00:19:56,596
So the four of us realized
355
00:19:56,629 --> 00:19:58,899
that we could,
and maybe should,
356
00:19:58,933 --> 00:20:01,601
just be together,
357
00:20:02,502 --> 00:20:03,670
at the same time.
358
00:20:03,703 --> 00:20:06,706
Are you saying that
for the past year,
359
00:20:06,740 --> 00:20:08,608
the four of you
have been dating
360
00:20:10,177 --> 00:20:11,245
each other?
361
00:20:12,645 --> 00:20:14,181
It started innocently enough,
362
00:20:14,215 --> 00:20:16,317
with the four of usgoing on double dates,
363
00:20:16,350 --> 00:20:17,952
me and Archie,Jughead and Veronica.
364
00:20:17,985 --> 00:20:21,155
And then it kind ofnaturally evolved from there.
365
00:20:21,188 --> 00:20:24,557
Some nights, Archie wouldsneak into my bedroom
366
00:20:24,591 --> 00:20:28,362
and Veronica wouldgo home with Jughead.
367
00:20:28,396 --> 00:20:32,166
Other nights,Archie would spend the nightat the Pembrooke
368
00:20:32,199 --> 00:20:35,036
and I'd go over to Jughead's.
369
00:20:35,069 --> 00:20:36,804
And sometimes,
370
00:20:36,837 --> 00:20:38,705
more often than you'd imagine,
371
00:20:38,738 --> 00:20:41,976
I would find my wayto Veronica's.
372
00:20:42,009 --> 00:20:45,379
Okay, but you guys
never thought about
373
00:20:45,413 --> 00:20:46,914
bringing me into the mix?
374
00:20:46,947 --> 00:20:49,483
Veronica and I
talked about it, of course,
375
00:20:49,517 --> 00:20:51,718
a flutter bum like you.
376
00:20:51,751 --> 00:20:53,287
But you were always
so focused on basketball.
377
00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:56,290
Trust me, I would have
made the time, Goldilocks.
378
00:20:56,323 --> 00:20:58,059
But, speaking of that,
379
00:21:00,528 --> 00:21:01,929
I better get back to it.
380
00:21:04,098 --> 00:21:06,699
I'm so glad
I got to know you, Reggie.
381
00:21:07,334 --> 00:21:09,569
This you.
382
00:21:09,602 --> 00:21:11,638
And I think you're destined
for greatness.
383
00:21:15,509 --> 00:21:16,643
You too, Cooper.
384
00:21:27,488 --> 00:21:29,323
Did Reggie go professional?
385
00:21:29,356 --> 00:21:30,723
Yes.
386
00:21:30,757 --> 00:21:32,526
The following year
he played for Kansas State.
387
00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:34,694
And then he got drafted
by the Lakers.
388
00:21:35,762 --> 00:21:37,031
During the off season,
389
00:21:37,064 --> 00:21:38,566
he would work
at his family farm
390
00:21:38,598 --> 00:21:39,967
until his folks passed away.
391
00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:42,403
Then he had to sell the land.
392
00:21:42,436 --> 00:21:45,638
At which pointhe started coaching here,at Riverdale High.
393
00:21:46,907 --> 00:21:49,577
He was buried in Duck Creek,
394
00:21:49,609 --> 00:21:51,678
next to his wife
and his parents.
395
00:21:52,313 --> 00:21:54,115
He had two sons,
396
00:21:54,148 --> 00:21:56,683
who still runthe used car dealership,Mantle Motors.
397
00:21:59,954 --> 00:22:01,822
We go to the Babylonium next.
398
00:22:05,159 --> 00:22:07,094
How's that
absinthe, Betty?
399
00:22:07,128 --> 00:22:11,899
It's delicious.
It's just a bit early
in the day for me.
400
00:22:11,932 --> 00:22:16,570
Well, I want to prepare you
because I have news,
401
00:22:16,604 --> 00:22:20,107
that I haven't yet shared
with the boys.
402
00:22:20,141 --> 00:22:22,642
The final pieces
fell into place yesterday,
403
00:22:22,675 --> 00:22:26,380
but I'm moving back
to the City of Angels.
404
00:22:26,413 --> 00:22:27,647
Los Angeles?
405
00:22:29,183 --> 00:22:30,384
Why? How?
406
00:22:30,417 --> 00:22:33,888
Josie McCoy's words
about taking over Hollywood
407
00:22:33,921 --> 00:22:38,125
have been ringing in my ears
since her visit.
408
00:22:38,159 --> 00:22:40,461
So I finally called
my good friend Peter Roth
409
00:22:40,494 --> 00:22:43,763
and asked about getting a job,
working for him in La La Land.
410
00:22:43,796 --> 00:22:46,400
I've done the small town thing.
411
00:22:46,433 --> 00:22:47,868
I've done
the theater owner thing,
412
00:22:47,902 --> 00:22:51,704
and I now know
what I wanna do next.
413
00:22:51,738 --> 00:22:53,641
And what is that,
Miss Lodge?
414
00:22:53,673 --> 00:22:55,342
I want to produce movies.
415
00:22:56,277 --> 00:22:57,677
And run a studio someday.
416
00:22:59,079 --> 00:22:59,947
Just like you.
417
00:23:02,349 --> 00:23:04,418
I can't tell you
how excited I am
418
00:23:04,451 --> 00:23:06,587
to begin this
next chapter, Betty.
419
00:23:06,620 --> 00:23:09,056
To get in on the ground floor,
420
00:23:09,089 --> 00:23:12,725
learn the ropes, work my way up
to being a studio executive,
421
00:23:12,759 --> 00:23:14,094
one of the gatekeepers.
422
00:23:14,128 --> 00:23:15,362
Wow.
423
00:23:15,396 --> 00:23:20,234
It sounds like
an opportunity of a lifetime.
424
00:23:20,267 --> 00:23:21,734
It is.
425
00:23:23,736 --> 00:23:25,940
But I'm detecting
something, Betty.
426
00:23:27,041 --> 00:23:28,809
I'm so proud of you.
427
00:23:30,110 --> 00:23:31,579
Of all the things
that you've done,
428
00:23:31,612 --> 00:23:34,682
of all the businesses
that you've started.
429
00:23:36,283 --> 00:23:38,452
This move feels...
430
00:23:40,921 --> 00:23:42,456
The most right.
431
00:23:43,557 --> 00:23:44,391
I agree.
432
00:23:45,926 --> 00:23:48,362
Like it was my destiny.
433
00:23:48,395 --> 00:23:51,398
To be in the movies.
434
00:23:51,432 --> 00:23:55,836
The only thing is,
California's so far away.
435
00:23:55,869 --> 00:23:57,171
Betty,
436
00:24:00,773 --> 00:24:02,843
it doesn't matter
how far away we are.
437
00:24:04,712 --> 00:24:08,148
We will always be
in each other's lives.
438
00:24:10,750 --> 00:24:11,852
I promise.
439
00:24:18,492 --> 00:24:19,860
I always loved this theater.
440
00:24:21,595 --> 00:24:22,496
It had a good run.
441
00:24:23,664 --> 00:24:25,432
Lots of kids made out here.
442
00:24:28,636 --> 00:24:30,437
Lots of gum under these seats.
443
00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:34,642
And Veronica?
444
00:24:34,675 --> 00:24:36,410
The summerafter graduation,
445
00:24:36,443 --> 00:24:39,380
Veronica startedas an assistantat Silver Shield Studios.
446
00:24:39,413 --> 00:24:41,248
But within a few years,she was running the place.
447
00:24:41,282 --> 00:24:43,417
She became knownfor her impeccable taste
448
00:24:43,450 --> 00:24:46,287
and for taking riskson young, raw talent.
449
00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:48,289
She won two Oscars,
450
00:24:48,322 --> 00:24:51,458
and produced someof the most iconic moviesof our time.
451
00:24:51,492 --> 00:24:53,994
Vee was buried in
the Hollywood Forever Cemetery.
452
00:25:01,468 --> 00:25:03,304
I visited her grave once.
453
00:25:08,208 --> 00:25:11,412
We went to some
of her premieres before that.
454
00:25:14,581 --> 00:25:16,350
She was such a force.
455
00:25:21,822 --> 00:25:23,023
I wish...
456
00:25:28,762 --> 00:25:31,432
I wish I had kept
in better touch with her.
457
00:25:34,868 --> 00:25:38,539
With everyone, all of us.
We were so close.
458
00:25:39,606 --> 00:25:41,041
Inseparable.
459
00:25:41,075 --> 00:25:42,609
And then we just...
460
00:25:45,579 --> 00:25:47,081
That's what today
is all about.
461
00:25:49,249 --> 00:25:52,886
Remembering and getting
one more chance.
462
00:25:55,856 --> 00:25:56,957
And no regrets.
463
00:26:05,733 --> 00:26:07,401
Thank you all
for coming tonight.
464
00:26:07,434 --> 00:26:10,637
This is the culmination
of a year-long collaboration
465
00:26:10,671 --> 00:26:14,843
between myself and my partner
in all things, Toni Topaz.
466
00:26:14,875 --> 00:26:20,347
Our relationship
is the most thrilling thing
I could have ever imagined.
467
00:26:20,381 --> 00:26:22,082
We're always creating.
468
00:26:22,116 --> 00:26:27,054
There's no separation
between our art and our love.
469
00:26:27,087 --> 00:26:31,191
So, please mingle,
enjoy the work,
470
00:26:31,225 --> 00:26:35,429
- and feel free to buy a piece
or two.
471
00:26:35,462 --> 00:26:38,265
Also, I'll be sitting
at that table over there,
472
00:26:38,298 --> 00:26:42,770
selling a collected edition
of the first six issues
of Black Athena,
473
00:26:42,804 --> 00:26:46,206
Riverdale High's
acclaimed literary magazine.
474
00:26:46,240 --> 00:26:47,941
It's sure to be
a collector's item.
475
00:26:47,975 --> 00:26:49,977
Thank you.
476
00:27:00,254 --> 00:27:02,389
These paintings
are incredible.
477
00:27:02,423 --> 00:27:04,525
I should try to buy one.
478
00:27:04,558 --> 00:27:10,564
In case you were wondering,
Cheryl had an incredible career
as a painter.
479
00:27:10,597 --> 00:27:13,534
Her work was shown in galleries
and museums across the country.
480
00:27:14,601 --> 00:27:16,003
Even a couple in Europe.
481
00:27:17,371 --> 00:27:18,873
What about Toni?
482
00:27:18,907 --> 00:27:20,274
Toni and Cheryl
stayed together.
483
00:27:21,175 --> 00:27:23,076
Moved out west together.
484
00:27:23,110 --> 00:27:25,979
They settled
in the Oakland hills
in a Craftsman house,
485
00:27:26,013 --> 00:27:28,048
where they lived as artistsand activists,
486
00:27:29,116 --> 00:27:32,252
and they had a son, Dale,
487
00:27:32,286 --> 00:27:34,354
named after Riverdale,of course.
488
00:27:37,090 --> 00:27:39,293
And how did they pass away?
489
00:27:39,326 --> 00:27:40,929
Peacefully.
490
00:27:40,961 --> 00:27:45,132
After living full, gorgeous,
491
00:27:45,165 --> 00:27:47,734
sexy lives.
492
00:27:51,004 --> 00:27:52,272
What about Julian?
493
00:27:52,306 --> 00:27:54,107
A bit of a lost soul.
494
00:27:54,141 --> 00:27:58,312
After graduation, he enlisted,
served and died in Vietnam.
495
00:27:59,848 --> 00:28:01,715
He was 28.
496
00:28:01,748 --> 00:28:03,952
Nana Rose?
497
00:28:03,984 --> 00:28:06,987
Reincarnated
multiple times.
498
00:28:09,990 --> 00:28:12,226
The Bee and Mrs. T got married.
499
00:28:14,995 --> 00:28:16,430
Oh, them.
500
00:28:16,463 --> 00:28:18,867
Frank Andrews and Tom Keller
were murdered.
501
00:28:18,900 --> 00:28:20,501
By who?
502
00:28:20,534 --> 00:28:24,404
A hustler they picked up
one rainy night, named Chic.
503
00:28:28,242 --> 00:28:31,144
What's happening over there?
504
00:28:31,178 --> 00:28:34,047
Veronica has just told us
about her plans to go out west,
505
00:28:34,081 --> 00:28:36,216
and we are not taking it well.
506
00:28:36,250 --> 00:28:38,652
I wasn't there
for that conversation?
507
00:28:38,685 --> 00:28:40,053
No.
508
00:28:40,787 --> 00:28:41,622
Well, you should be.
509
00:28:42,924 --> 00:28:44,124
Might help cushion the blow.
510
00:28:52,366 --> 00:28:56,303
What's the tale, nightingales?
Why the long faces?
511
00:28:56,336 --> 00:28:59,373
Ronnie just dropped
an atomic bomb on us.
512
00:28:59,406 --> 00:29:01,976
I told them
my Los Angeles news.
513
00:29:02,010 --> 00:29:03,945
Ain't that just the pits?
514
00:29:03,978 --> 00:29:05,245
Come on, boys.
515
00:29:05,279 --> 00:29:07,347
I know we haven't been
talking about it lately,
516
00:29:07,381 --> 00:29:10,919
but we all knew we'd be
going our separate ways
after graduation.
517
00:29:10,952 --> 00:29:12,954
Yeah, but now it just feels
so real.
518
00:29:12,987 --> 00:29:15,756
And final.
519
00:29:15,789 --> 00:29:18,860
Hey, do we really want
to spend what could be
our last night together,
520
00:29:18,893 --> 00:29:21,695
acting like
a bunch of wet blankets?
521
00:29:21,728 --> 00:29:24,598
Senior year was amazing
and incredibly fulfilling.
522
00:29:24,631 --> 00:29:28,803
Not just physically,
emotionally, too.
523
00:29:28,836 --> 00:29:32,539
Seriously, how lucky were we
to have been brought together?
524
00:29:32,573 --> 00:29:35,877
Given the opportunity to know
and love each other
525
00:29:35,910 --> 00:29:40,048
across, not one,
but two lifetimes?
526
00:29:40,080 --> 00:29:43,216
We should be celebrating that.
Not mourning it.
527
00:29:43,250 --> 00:29:45,218
Not yet, at least.
528
00:29:45,252 --> 00:29:49,590
Betty's right.
The future can wait.
529
00:29:49,623 --> 00:29:54,461
Tonight is about appreciating
everything we've been through.
530
00:29:54,494 --> 00:29:58,933
And let me tell you,
we have been through
a hell of a lot.
531
00:29:58,967 --> 00:30:00,601
You know,
I gotta say,
532
00:30:00,634 --> 00:30:03,370
if I had to live through
high school twice,
which we did,
533
00:30:06,440 --> 00:30:08,642
I'm glad it was
with you three yahoos.
534
00:30:09,877 --> 00:30:13,580
I love you all so much.
535
00:30:13,614 --> 00:30:19,219
Meeting you was the best thing
that could have possibly
happened to me,
536
00:30:20,153 --> 00:30:21,722
heartbreaks and all.
537
00:30:25,659 --> 00:30:29,162
And I'm so glad to be here
to say that to you tonight.
538
00:30:33,835 --> 00:30:37,805
Hey, should we all take one
last ride in my hotrod together
539
00:30:37,839 --> 00:30:39,439
to Cheryl's after party?
540
00:31:26,087 --> 00:31:27,354
Where are the others?
541
00:31:29,690 --> 00:31:31,224
Already inside.
542
00:31:31,258 --> 00:31:33,627
-Why aren't you there?
-I can't.
543
00:31:35,096 --> 00:31:37,230
I can't go in.
544
00:31:37,264 --> 00:31:39,733
-How come?
-Because I know
and you know
545
00:31:39,766 --> 00:31:44,038
that this is the last time
that all of us
will be together, ever.
546
00:31:44,072 --> 00:31:45,305
Betty...
547
00:31:45,338 --> 00:31:47,207
I don't want to say goodbye.
548
00:31:48,208 --> 00:31:51,344
I just don't.
549
00:31:51,378 --> 00:31:56,316
It will be too painful,
too much to bear,
like you said.
550
00:31:56,349 --> 00:31:57,684
It was a mistake
to come back here.
551
00:31:57,718 --> 00:31:59,219
I should be at home
with the mumps.
552
00:31:59,252 --> 00:32:00,554
I should not
be saying goodbye.
553
00:32:00,587 --> 00:32:03,423
-It's... It's...
-That's life, Betty.
554
00:32:04,092 --> 00:32:06,160
You say hello.
555
00:32:06,194 --> 00:32:08,896
You walk alongside someone
for a while,
556
00:32:10,230 --> 00:32:11,465
and then you say goodbye.
557
00:32:14,202 --> 00:32:15,903
That's the arc of a life.
558
00:32:16,938 --> 00:32:17,771
Isn't it?
559
00:32:23,477 --> 00:32:24,912
Every minute counts.
560
00:32:53,174 --> 00:32:55,209
Okay.
561
00:32:55,243 --> 00:32:59,147
As some of you
may know, I'm kind of
a big-time poet now.
562
00:32:59,180 --> 00:33:00,915
We know, Andrews.
563
00:33:00,948 --> 00:33:02,984
- You won't stop
talking about it.
564
00:33:03,017 --> 00:33:05,619
In any case, I wrote something
to commemorate
our time together.
565
00:33:05,652 --> 00:33:08,388
Aw! Are you gonna make us
get the weeps, Archie?
566
00:33:10,423 --> 00:33:12,260
This is an ode
to my best friends
567
00:33:12,292 --> 00:33:14,294
and every good thing
that must come to an end.
568
00:33:15,830 --> 00:33:18,598
"Tomorrow, we won't see
each other in study hall
569
00:33:18,632 --> 00:33:20,935
So, here's a few memories
for us to recall
570
00:33:20,968 --> 00:33:24,337
And no, I won't be mentioning
the epic highs and lows
of high school football"
571
00:33:26,174 --> 00:33:28,475
"I grew up next door
to Betty Cooper
572
00:33:28,508 --> 00:33:31,846
Who everyone thinks
is super duper
573
00:33:31,879 --> 00:33:33,513
Just don't mutter the word
'tangerine'
574
00:33:33,547 --> 00:33:35,415
'Cause it sets off
her serial-killer gene"
575
00:33:37,551 --> 00:33:40,021
"Veronica Lodge,
always in pearls,
576
00:33:40,054 --> 00:33:42,789
There isn't a business
you haven't given a whirl
577
00:33:42,824 --> 00:33:45,126
Funny to think
you were never prom queen
578
00:33:45,159 --> 00:33:49,297
Then again, you were,
once upon a time,
a human dialysis machine"
579
00:33:49,329 --> 00:33:52,967
I specifically asked
Angel Tabitha not to let
anyone remember that.
580
00:33:54,367 --> 00:33:56,971
"Cheryl Blossom,
you're as rich
as a Rockefeller
581
00:33:57,004 --> 00:34:00,007
You also kept
your beloved Jason
down in a cellar
582
00:34:01,876 --> 00:34:03,343
But I'm glad to see you
and the serpent queen
back together
583
00:34:03,376 --> 00:34:05,847
Only thing, Toni,
'Southside' is one word.
584
00:34:05,880 --> 00:34:08,249
So, whoever designed
your jacket
is a terrible speller
585
00:34:09,583 --> 00:34:11,718
Jughead Jones needs no intro
586
00:34:11,751 --> 00:34:13,287
He made his teacher
jump out a window
587
00:34:14,554 --> 00:34:16,356
Thinks himself a private eye
588
00:34:16,389 --> 00:34:18,326
Chained himself
to Southside High"
589
00:34:18,358 --> 00:34:20,027
Do me next.
590
00:34:21,561 --> 00:34:24,031
"Kevin's voice is so beautiful
he belongs in a chorus
591
00:34:24,065 --> 00:34:26,666
But he spends most of his time
cruising Fox Forest"
592
00:34:28,069 --> 00:34:32,039
"Fangs, look at you now
593
00:34:32,073 --> 00:34:33,975
You're a rockstar greaser
594
00:34:34,008 --> 00:34:36,878
A long way from a cult member
who stole organs
to put in a freezer"
595
00:34:38,712 --> 00:34:41,816
"Last but not least,
Mantle the Magnificent
596
00:34:41,849 --> 00:34:44,018
Pound for pound
you're my closest equivalent
597
00:34:44,051 --> 00:34:46,586
But there's that other Reggie
so how do we know
you're even legitimate?
598
00:34:46,620 --> 00:34:50,024
I'm gonna need to see
some kind of birth certificate"
599
00:34:51,292 --> 00:34:52,425
Not cool, Andrews.
600
00:34:52,459 --> 00:34:54,461
You know
I'm sensitive about that.
601
00:34:57,430 --> 00:34:59,566
"These are just
some of our wild endeavors
602
00:35:01,168 --> 00:35:03,637
But now we've come to the end
of our time together
603
00:35:05,106 --> 00:35:07,808
It's truly one of my life's
greatest pleasures
604
00:35:10,278 --> 00:35:12,113
To call you all
my best friends
605
00:35:13,314 --> 00:35:14,681
Forever and ever"
606
00:35:38,239 --> 00:35:41,474
You weren't planning on leaving
without saying goodbye,
were you?
607
00:35:43,476 --> 00:35:45,679
I'm afraid it's time
for me to go.
608
00:35:46,680 --> 00:35:47,514
Oh...
609
00:35:49,150 --> 00:35:51,152
Okay, well...
610
00:35:54,621 --> 00:35:57,091
Tonight isn't goodbye anyway.
611
00:35:58,458 --> 00:35:59,961
I know
we'll see each other again.
612
00:36:01,695 --> 00:36:02,696
Maybe...
613
00:36:03,697 --> 00:36:05,598
Maybe we'll even
end up together.
614
00:36:08,069 --> 00:36:09,602
You know, I've always felt
615
00:36:11,172 --> 00:36:13,540
that it would be you and me
at the end of the road.
616
00:36:15,775 --> 00:36:18,145
I mean, it started with us,
didn't it?
617
00:36:20,448 --> 00:36:23,516
A boy and a girl
next door to each other.
618
00:36:25,485 --> 00:36:28,521
That's a lovely
sentiment, Archie.
619
00:36:28,555 --> 00:36:30,757
But that's not what happens
in the future.
620
00:36:33,693 --> 00:36:34,527
No?
621
00:36:38,165 --> 00:36:39,000
No.
622
00:36:42,269 --> 00:36:44,105
Your mom was right.
623
00:36:46,506 --> 00:36:49,709
You make it to California
and you don't look back.
624
00:36:52,279 --> 00:36:56,951
Then you meet
a sweet, strong girl
who makes you laugh.
625
00:36:59,387 --> 00:37:01,688
And you settle down in Modesto.
626
00:37:03,357 --> 00:37:05,860
And you have
a beautiful family.
627
00:37:08,195 --> 00:37:12,266
You're a professional
construction worker
and an amateur writer.
628
00:37:13,566 --> 00:37:17,238
And you are so, so content
629
00:37:18,506 --> 00:37:19,739
and happy.
630
00:37:25,612 --> 00:37:27,714
And when you die,
631
00:37:30,550 --> 00:37:34,621
you ask to be buried here
in Riverdale
632
00:37:37,425 --> 00:37:38,758
next to your father.
633
00:38:10,324 --> 00:38:11,158
Glad you went in?
634
00:38:12,493 --> 00:38:13,726
I am.
635
00:38:15,662 --> 00:38:18,899
But it reminded me...
636
00:38:18,933 --> 00:38:22,269
There's one last person
I want to visit
before we leave
637
00:38:22,735 --> 00:38:24,338
if we have time.
638
00:38:26,307 --> 00:38:27,341
We do.
639
00:38:29,609 --> 00:38:31,711
I just want to get
some flowers first.
640
00:38:49,830 --> 00:38:53,868
It was right after
the beginning of
senior year that he...
641
00:38:54,869 --> 00:38:55,702
Yes.
642
00:38:56,837 --> 00:38:58,906
It was a terrible blow
to the town.
643
00:39:03,844 --> 00:39:05,745
At least it happened
in his sleep.
644
00:39:17,992 --> 00:39:20,327
What do you think
happens to us
645
00:39:22,662 --> 00:39:23,864
when we die?
646
00:39:28,668 --> 00:39:30,304
Well, I can't speak
for everyone.
647
00:39:30,337 --> 00:39:32,506
But for a man like Pop Tate,
648
00:39:32,540 --> 00:39:37,278
I have a feeling he's probably
still doing what he loved best.
649
00:39:37,311 --> 00:39:40,848
Flipping burgers
and mixing shakes,
and making people smile.
650
00:39:42,983 --> 00:39:45,186
For the rest of eternity,
I bet.
651
00:39:52,159 --> 00:39:55,362
It's strange to say,
but I read your obituary
652
00:39:56,564 --> 00:39:58,232
in the paper.
653
00:39:59,300 --> 00:40:01,535
It was lovely, Jughead.
654
00:40:01,569 --> 00:40:04,672
Yours was a life well lived.
655
00:40:04,704 --> 00:40:06,941
Well, as we used to say
back in the day,
656
00:40:07,875 --> 00:40:08,909
"It was swell."
657
00:40:10,044 --> 00:40:12,012
I put all my eggs
in one basket.
658
00:40:12,046 --> 00:40:14,949
Jughead's Madhouse Magazine.
659
00:40:16,749 --> 00:40:19,320
It became an institution.
660
00:40:19,353 --> 00:40:22,923
It wasjuvenile satire at best.
661
00:40:22,957 --> 00:40:25,059
Just mockingall of the sacred cows.
662
00:40:26,227 --> 00:40:27,261
People loved it.
663
00:40:28,262 --> 00:40:32,199
And they still love it
70 years later.
664
00:40:32,233 --> 00:40:34,435
It's mostly teens
and kids who read it,
665
00:40:34,468 --> 00:40:36,237
but I'm not gonna lie.
666
00:40:36,270 --> 00:40:40,874
As far as legacies go,
I could have done
a heck of a lot worse.
667
00:40:42,676 --> 00:40:44,912
Do you think about that
a lot, legacy?
668
00:40:47,281 --> 00:40:48,716
No.
669
00:40:48,748 --> 00:40:51,919
-Not too much.
-Well, you should.
670
00:40:51,952 --> 00:40:54,455
First, it was
the Teenage Mystique,
671
00:40:54,488 --> 00:40:56,490
a self-published bestseller.
672
00:40:56,523 --> 00:40:57,757
Then there was
your advice column,
673
00:40:57,790 --> 00:40:59,660
Betty's Diary.
674
00:40:59,693 --> 00:41:02,496
All I remember
from those days were
the never-ending deadlines.
675
00:41:02,529 --> 00:41:03,864
Then it was New York...
676
00:41:03,897 --> 00:41:05,866
Freelancing
and protesting.
677
00:41:05,899 --> 00:41:08,702
There was so much
to be angry about back then.
678
00:41:08,736 --> 00:41:11,105
Hmm. Still is.
679
00:41:11,138 --> 00:41:12,840
The same fights.
680
00:41:15,342 --> 00:41:17,111
But other people
are fighting them now,
681
00:41:18,445 --> 00:41:19,813
the younger generation.
682
00:41:19,847 --> 00:41:23,317
Who grew up reading
the magazine you started,
683
00:41:23,350 --> 00:41:25,452
She Says Magazine.
684
00:41:25,486 --> 00:41:29,723
The go-to source for feministsand progressive causes,
685
00:41:29,757 --> 00:41:32,059
exposing hard truths.
686
00:41:32,092 --> 00:41:34,561
Still being published today,I might add.
687
00:41:36,796 --> 00:41:40,301
As far as
professional legacies go,
688
00:41:40,334 --> 00:41:42,903
I could have done
a heck of a lot worse.
689
00:41:45,372 --> 00:41:47,908
Do you have any regrets
about not getting married?
690
00:41:49,510 --> 00:41:50,511
None.
691
00:41:56,750 --> 00:41:59,820
But I'm so happy I adopted
my daughter Carla.
692
00:42:01,055 --> 00:42:03,257
I loved being a mother.
693
00:42:05,426 --> 00:42:06,960
And a grandmother.
694
00:42:10,964 --> 00:42:12,833
That's my true legacy,
695
00:42:15,869 --> 00:42:16,837
my family.
696
00:42:20,140 --> 00:42:23,444
What about you?
Any regrets about
not getting circled?
697
00:42:24,712 --> 00:42:25,979
Sometimes.
698
00:42:35,824 --> 00:42:37,958
I know
it's impossible, but...
699
00:42:41,995 --> 00:42:44,865
I wish that we could stay
