Previously on Riverdale...

Hiram Lodge,
you're under arrest.

My own daughter,
working with the Feds.

Is there someone else here?

I came to tell her
that I wanted to be with her.

Gryphons and Gargoyles
is literally killing people.

There was
something lodged in his throat.

A matchbook from the Maple Club.

According to Ethel,
Jason Blossom is the Gargoyle King.

The return of the Black Hood. Now we
have two serial killers running around.

Possibly working together.

Let the Farm protect you.
Both of you.

The Farm gave me back
my brother.

Yes. I see my son.

Charles. And it's like
I never lost him.

There's a refrigerator filled
to the brim with human organs.

Prepare Betty for her procedure.

Get your hands off
my girlfriend!

Toni, this is
your only chance at freedom.

No, run! Go!

There, there, Antoinette.

Now that you've settled down
with a cup of calming tea,

why don't you explain this
to me one more time?

Mrs. Blossom,
Cheryl is in danger.

She's at the Farm with Betty,
Kevin, and Fangs

and Edgar Evernever.

And he's harvesting organs
from his followers.

Oh, dear. Is that
what he's doing there?

Well, isn't it fortunate
I was here collecting my mail

at Thistlehouse
when you arrived?

And Betty's with him, you say?

Yeah, and, um, we need to go
save them because we...

Good night, my dear.

Thank you for the information.

Very timely indeed.

I refuse to accept
what Ethel said.

That Jason Blossom
is the Gargoyle King.

Even though his coffin
was empty,

it defies logic.

Well, say Ethel is
off her rocker, okay,

but where's Jason's body?

And someone's still wearing
the Gargoyle King's antler,

so it's up to you and me to figure out
who, Blossom or no Blossom.

I keep thinking
about that matchbook

that Dr. Curdle found
in Baby Teeth's throat.

Kurtz must have got that
at the Maple Club, right?

What are you getting at, boy?

Do you have a copy of Kurtz's
mugshot I can borrow?

Dad?

Sorry to interrupt,
but you have a visitor.

She says it can't wait.

Mrs. Blossom,
what can I do for you?

Let's not mince words,
Mr. Evernever.

I am fully aware of the foul
activities you're conducting here.

The Topaz girl told me.

I have no interest
in exposing your shenanigans.

Then why have you come?

You have something that I want.

- Mrs. Blossom...
- You sell organs, don't you?

I'm looking to buy in bulk.

Did you ever see a client
in here by the name of Kurtz

at the Maple Club?
He looked like this.

Yes.

I never worked
with him directly.

Who did he work with?

All of his interactions
were with...

The Red Dahlia?
Penelope Blossom?

Yeah.

Out of curiosity,

you never saw Penelope with a young
man, a young redhead, did you?

You mean her kid, Jason?

Yeah, sure. He came around.

We've been compromised, Evelyn.

We've had too many breaches.

- It's time.
- Edgar.

What's happening?

Why is everyone
acting so skittish?

The outside world is encroaching upon
us, Sister Alice.

We've had both defectors

and unwelcome visitors.

The Ascension is
upon us. Tonight.

The Ascension?

- Tonight?
- Yes.

Preparations are being made.

Well, I need to find Betty.
Have you seen her?

- Uh...
- She escaped, with Toni Topaz.

Escaped?

She was never a believer
like you, Alice.

So we will ascend without her.

In the wake of
Mr. Lodge's arrest,

you now have full ownership
of the Pembrooke

and all other Lodge
investment properties.

And, Veronica, you and your
mother are now the co-owners

of Pop's Chock'lit Shoppe
and the speakeasy beneath it.

Now, there's one more property
I'm curious about.

Mom, that was Veronica on the
phone with some amazing news.

She said she's giving me
the El Royale.

That I legit own
the gym now, free and clear.

That's a very generous
gift, Archie.

But still, I'm interested in
where you two stand romantically.

Are we expecting anyone?

Someone left mine at the door.

Mine, too.

My dad or Jellybean
could have found it.

Mine was waiting
for me downstairs,

at the speakeasy.

Are we sure they're not fakes?

I don't think so.

And I've been trying
Betty at the Farm,

but she's not answering.

The invitations say
not to tell anyone

and not to bring our phones.

So it's a trap.

Was there ever a doubt?

We don't really have a choice.

Guys.

Elizabeth. Pretty.

Good evening.

Come and join us, why don't you?

Penelope.

What... What is this place?

This is the Blossom
Hunting Lodge

on the grounds of Thornhill.

How did I get here?

I bought you
from Mr. Evernever.

Just as he was about to cut
you into butcher's parts.

Now, Agatha here will
show you to your place.

Sister Woodhouse.

You naughty, naughty girl.

Agatha was one of my mentors.

She cared for me when I was an
orphan at The Sisters of Quiet Mercy.

Taught me everything
I know about poisons.

The murdered nuns.

You did that?

Oh, loose ends.

Such a bother, aren't they?

"Loose ends"?

Is that what we are?

Oh, gosh.
No, not you.

You are featured players.

The sons and daughters
of the original Midnight Club.

Jug, what's happening?

I've almost figured it out.

Oh, have you?

Because if anybody could,
it would be you, Mr. Jones.

But first, two more guests.

I believe you know them already.

What have I told you?

No masks at the dinner table.

Take them off.

Oh, my God.

Wait, King, before you do...

Hellcaster.

Care to take a stab?

Sure.

Arthur Conan Doyle
famously said,

"Once you eliminate the
impossible, whatever remains,

however improbable,
must be the truth."

In which case,

whoever it is
underneath that mask

must've had a connection to Hell

and to you, Penelope.

But it's not Jason,
because he's dead.

Even though his corpse
is missing.

The one corpse that
hasn't been accounted for

and who was last seen
by the Black Hood...

- Chic.
- ...is Chic.

What the hell?

Since when does Chic
have red hair?

I'm guessing since he started
working with Penelope.

Doing her bidding.

But this was after he got the
Gargoyle symbols tattooed on his back.

It's why Ethel said
the Gargoyle King was Jason.

Because you called him Jason.

'Cause you dressed him up
like Jason.

You didn't murder Chic.

After you chased him
through the woods, you...

I recognized a kinship in him,

and I spared him.

He begged for mercy
and pledged his life to me

in service of my mission.

But it wasn't just your
mission, was it, Mr. Cooper?

Maybe not at first,

but eventually, you started
working with someone else

who also had a grudge
against Riverdale.

In the middle of all that stuff
with the Black Hood last year,

my dad was having
an affair with Penelope.

Yes, I did cultivate
your father's...

murderous impulses,

it's true.

To take my revenge on a town

that allowed me to be sold as
a child bride to the Blossoms.

Your parents knew.
I told them.

And they did nothing
but mock me.

And years later,
when my Jason was murdered in cold blood,

do you think one of them
reached out to me?

No, they were too busy ignoring
the rotting, fetid truth

that Riverdale is
a hideous and cruel place,

twisted and cursed.

And the Black Hood and I,
we were doing quite well.

Exterminating its sinners.

Until my dad got arrested.

Yes, but that was fine because
Hal's disciple came to me,

lost, and I gave him purpose.

To continue our great work.

But not as the Black Hood.

So instead, you made him
dress up like the boogeyman.

The Gargoyle King.

You introduced G&G
to our parents 25 years ago,

and then reintroduced it
this year to Chic.

- His name is Jason.
- Who gave it to...

Ben Button.

Who started playing
with Dilton Doiley.

Then Ethel Muggs.

And then G&G spread
like a virus or a poison.

And the true mastermind
behind it all...

the true king is you, Penelope.

Oh.

Well done.

Well done.

But now, it's time to play
one final round.

With you, the Midnight children.

To what end?

Say it's to reveal
your true nature.

To prove that you are as dark-hearted
as the town that birthed you.

And what?

If we win, we escape?

You won't win.

So what happens if we lose?

Well, then, your parents will
feel the pain that I felt.

The death of a child.

Could there by anything
more dreadful?

You're nuts.

It is time.

Come to the lawn
for the gathering.

The task before you is simple.

Make it through the woods,
survive the night.

You will be tested, each of you.

Refuse my tests
or try to escape,

and my Gargoyle minion
will kill you.

May the final quest begin!

I'd start running if I were you.

The good news is, if Penelope
wanted us dead, we would be.

She wants us alive.

Yeah, well, at least long enough to
complete her bizarre social experiment.

Yeah, or die trying.

We don't even know where to go.

Actually, Enchantress, we might.

Come on, let's go.

Kevin, Fangs.

Save those eyes
for the bedroom, boys.

We're getting out
of this house of the devil.

Cheryl, aren't you confined to
your room for helping Toni escape?

Yeah, and suddenly you're
sounding a lot like Betty.

Betty knew the score.

Edgar Evernever
is harvesting organs.

Come with me.

Betty told me exactly where Edgar
keeps his innards collection.

Are you still seeing
organs, Cheryl?

What?

Edgar must've moved them,
or Evelyn did.

Cheryl, we are getting
ready to ascend.

And you should, too.

What if I get my hands
on irrefutable proof

that Edgar Evernever is a
modern day Dr. Frankenstein?

You know what? Sure.

Then proof, Kevin,
is what you shall have.

Where the hell are they?

Who's there?

Reveal thyself.

I'm in no mood.

I said who are...

It's a Red Paladin card.

Archie, this question's for you.

"The Red Paladin must
conquer the grizzled beast.

He must battle alone in the Pit
to save his home."

What is a grizzled beast?

Oh, crap.

Not again.

Archie.

Don't do this.

That guy is eight feet tall
and jacked.

It's just a fight.

I've been fighting all year.

Don't forget, I survived
a real bear attack, remember?

If I don't make it,

tell my mom and dad I love them.

And you guys.

Hey.

Come here.

Archie, are you sure
you're okay?

Apart from every inch
of my body.

What do we do now?

We gotta keep moving.

Penelope has already
left us more clues.

Come on.

What troubles you, Sister Alice?

I can't get in touch with Betty,

and I'm hearing rumors.

Whisperings about harvesting?

I see.

May I address your concerns?

Unfortunately, there's
not much I can say

about Betty or where she is.

About the rumors...

I admit, I have not been
entirely truthful

about all the activities
at the Farm.

What kind of sick
monster are you?

Cheryl, I'm in a meeting.

Please respect Sister Alice.

Why? Why would you do such
a thing to my own brother?

You had a void.

It's my job to diagnose
how to fill it.

By grave-robbing?

- Wait, what?
- Grab her.

No! Get your hands off me!

Confine Ms. Blossom
to her room.

You won't get away with this.

Toni will come for me.

Kevin's father is a lawman!

Evelyn, Sister Alice,

will you help me gather
our flock in the chamber?

So that we may ascend
with the...

"The Fate and Fortune Challenge.

Before you are six chalices,

each filled with Gargoyle blood.

The Enchantress must choose
her closest companion.

They will each take turns
spinning the bottle

and drinking from
the chosen chalice.

But beware, for one
of the chalices contains

a lethal, rapid-acting venom."

Seriously? Spin the bottle?

More like Russian roulette.

That's suicide. I refuse.

"Refusal to participate
in the challenge

results in the
immediate execution

of all remaining party members.

Remember, we're watching."

Vee, the scroll says you have to
choose your closest companion.

I volunteer.

Betty, no.

It's okay. I have faith.

And what's the alternative?
We get shot in the woods by snipers?

I'm having a diabolical
sense of deja vu.

How do you feel?

I think I'm fine.

I'm okay, Vee.

50-50 odds.

Okay.

No.

- Vee.
- Veronica.

Why did you do that?

Because I love you, Bee.

You're my best friend, and...

I love you too, Vee.

Remarkable, Enchantress.

You've completed your challenge,

and proven your loyalty.

- What?
- What?

Of course. It was
a character challenge.

The game was testing
if you had honor and loyalty.

None of the chalices
were poisoned.

On the contrary,

all of the chalices
were poisoned.

It's slow-acting,

but the only way to obtain the
antidote is to finish the game,

and even then,
you might not make it.

Tick tock.

Hey.

I need to say something.

I don't know what's going on
with you and Reggie.

He's my friend.

But I love you.

Veronica, I don't think
I've ever stopped loving you.

Archie...

The night of the fight,

nothing happened with Reggie

after you showed up
at the Pembrooke.

My heart ached for you...

because I felt the same way.

I love you, Archiekins.

For whatever good
that does us now.

Hey, I'm not letting you
die tonight, okay?

None of us dies tonight,
I swear.

Do you believe me?

I'm warning you.

Shh.

What are you going to do to me?

Nothing.

I'm here to help you escape.
Hurry. Come with me.

Why would I trust you?

You're as brainwashed
as Patty Hearst was.

What choice do you have?

There's a tunnel down here
that leads to Fox Forest.

I remember. But Betty said
it was bricked up.

Edgar reopened it
when he bought the compound.

Here, take Juniper,

reunite her with Dagwood.

Wait, what? Aren't you coming?

I have to stay for Polly.

But please, Cheryl, swear to me
you'll find Betty.

Make sure she's safe
from the Farm.

From her father.

- Please.
- I promise.

Okay. Now go.

Don't stop running
until you get to town.

Wake up, child.

Nana?

What the hell is going on?

There's no time, Antoinette.

The hunt is afoot.

What? What hunt?

At the Thornhill
Nature Preserve.

Your school chums are the prey.

You must save them.

Look, I don't know what
the hell you're talking about.

But first, I need
to save Cheryl.

You're up, Jug.

"The Battle of Kings.

Only one shall leave
the Kingdom of Eldervair."

Why are you doing this?

Why be the Gargoyle King?

Who doesn't wanna be king?

Who doesn't want blood
sacrifices made in their name?

Wow. Okay.

Jug!

Are you okay?

Jug.

It's Penelope's poison.

We gotta keep moving.

Come on.

Wait, I still don't get it.

Chic got red hair because Penelope's
pretending that he's Jason Blossom?

Can we explore the craziness
that is Oedipus Riverdale

after we get the antidote
and out of these damn woods?

Maybe figuring out how
all of this is connected

is exactly what
we should be doing.

Hal, Penelope, Chic...

They created this unholy trinity

with direct links
to everything bad

that has happened
in the last three years.

It's like Jason Blossom's death
begat the Black Hood,

which begat the Gargoyle King.

But the Gargoyle King existed
before Jason was killed.

Then it's a case of a serpent
eating its own tail.

It's a vicious cycle
of never-ending madness

that turns back on itself
over and over again

until someone breaks the chain.

Toni.

Baby?

We were just coming
to save you from the Farm.

- How'd you get out?
- An angel in disguise.

Where's Betty?

She's being hunted at Thornhill

with all the others.

What are you talking
about, Nana?

Your mother has been
preparing for this for weeks,

if not months.

It's the grand hunt.

We have to go there.

We have to save them.

Poisons, Serpents, let's ride!

Looks like it's my turn.

Hey.

I love you.

I love you, too.

You know how this has to end.

You have to kill me, Betty.

That's your heart,
that's your truth.

You can't deny your destiny.

Don't make me do this, please.

Either kill me
and get the antidote,

or I will kill you
and your friends.

You have till
the count of three.

Either shoot me
or I'll shoot you.

One...

Two...

Argh!

I will never be like you, Dad.

Enough!

Good God, Hal.

You can't be trusted
to do anything.

You were a terrible
serial killer,

and you still are today.

Useless.

And what do you think
you're doing?

Claiming our prize.

We won, didn't we?

We survived the night.

We proved that we're
better than this town.

That may or may not be true.

Kill them.

Kill them all!

Come on. Archie!

Archie!

Take cover!

Ronnie, here.

Poisons, charge!

All clear.

Cheryl. Cheryl.

Why aren't you at the Farm?
Where's my mom?

She sprung me from that Jonestown-like
nightmare and told me to find you.

Edgar was planning
to ascend tonight.

Oh, my God.
We have to save her.

Come aboard, cousin.

Get in.

Kevin.

They left me.

I wanted to go,

but they said that someone had to
stay behind to explain what happened.

What did happen?

The worthy ascended, of course.

Who did?

Where's my mom and Polly?

Gone.

Everyone is.

And we'll never see them again.

The Gargoyle King.

The Red Dahlia.

The Black Hood.

Chic was in jail.

Hal Cooper was dead.

Finally.

Only Penelope Blossom
managed to slip away

into the night.

Riverdale belonged to us again.

A future was ours to write.

But what would our stories be?

Welcome home, Jay-Jay.

You're sure? How could he
have hid this from me?

Hid what?

I... I gotta go.

Veronica, that was our attorney.

What was Daddy hiding?

FBI!

Hands up, now.

Agent Ardilla?

What the hell is going on?

Hermione Lodge, you're under arrest
for conspiracy to commit murder.

Your own husband's.

Veronica, listen to me.

It's going to be fine.
Call Sowerberry. Talk to him.

- I love you, mija.
- I love you, too, Mom.

Mr. Lodge, it's done.

As requested,
your wife's been arrested.

And the necessary evidence
has been planted.

Perfect.

Thank you.

Ah, Veronica, you don't even
know what's coming, mija.

Can we take five?

Yeah, sure, Red.

What's up?

I've been thinking about making
some changes to this place, Mad Dog.

- Yeah?
- Yeah.

Maybe make it more
than just a gym.

Like a halfway house
or a community center.

Place where the kids
in the neighborhood can come

so they stay off the streets.

I want you to help me run it.

For real?

We might actually have a shot
at turning this town around,

give people hope again.

Oh, yeah.

Can I help you?

Mr. Jones?

I'm Agent Smith with the FBI.

Is Betty Cooper here
by any chance?

Is this about the Lodges?

No, it's about your mother.

My team's been investigating
Edgar Evernever

for quite some time now.

We almost had him two towns ago.

Well, what were you waiting for?

He and his kooks took over The
Sisters of Quiet Mercy months ago.

We had someone on the inside,

someone tasked with
getting close to Edgar,

gathering intel.

We were waiting on her word.

- "Her," you mean...
- Your mother.

She's working with us.

My mother? My mother
is an FBI informant?

She's been helping us build a case
against Edgar Evernever and his Farmies,

their organ harvesting,
all of it.

You knew about
the organ harvesting.

It's vital that
we find your mom ASAP.

Which is why my team and I are gonna
be setting up shop here in Riverdale

until we can safely
locate and extract her.

I mean, what... Is there
anything we can do to help?

Thought you might ask.

So you're quite the detectives
around these parts.

I'm sorry, this is
gonna seem weird,

but do I... Do I know you?

As a matter of fact, yes.

It's no coincidence that your
mother and I found each other.

You see, um...

I'm Charles, your brother.

You... You can't be.

Wait.

If you're Charles...

You and I are also
brothers, Jughead.

That's right.

Wait. Back up.
Your brother's alive.

And he's an FBI agent?

It's our half-brother.

And it's pretty crazy, right?

Oh, and my mom is also
working for the FBI,

undercover at the Farm.

What?

Actually, that kind of tracks.

What about you, Vee?
Any word about your mom?

She's trying to cut
a deal with the DA,

but in the meantime,
Smithers is my legal guardian.

Guys, let's make a vow.

Another one.

We've got senior year
ahead of us. Let's enjoy it.

Let's vow to be done
with death cults,

and murder mysteries,
and gremlins.

It's gargoyles.

Our senior year could be the last time
we're all together in the same place.

And I don't want to let
anything ruin that.

Agreed.

I'm in.

I'm so in.

Me too.

Well, it sounds
a little dull, but sure.

Let's toast.

To the future.

Archie.

Archie.

Archie.

- Are you listening to me?
- Yeah.

We have to burn
all of our clothes,

including Jughead's beanie.

We'll wash off the blood
in the swimming hole.

After tonight,

we never speak of this, ever.

Not to each other,
not to our parents.

No one.

We finish our senior year
and graduate,

and we'll go our separate ways.

That is the only way
that we won't get caught.

Do it.

Friends forever.

Friends forever.
