It was the ultimate cliffhanger.

Clifford Blossom had
killed himself. But why?

Life's not an Agatha Christie
novel. It's a lot messier.

What the hell is Cliff
Blossom doing with drugs?

Turns out, maple syrup was a
front for his true business.

Transporting heroin from
Montreal on his trucks.

A narrative quickly emerged.

That Jason Blossom learned about
dear old Dad's drug running,

and threatened to expose the truth.

Which led to Jason's abduction

at the hands of a Southside
Serpent named Mustang.

And then to Jason's murder
at the hands of his father.

Clifford killed Mustang
to cover his tracks,

making it look like he'd overdosed,

and tried to implicate
a rival businessman,

Hiram Lodge, as having
masterminded the whole thing.

And, oh, yeah, I almost forgot.

Mr. Blossom threatened my life,

so that my dad would confess
to pulling the trigger,

even though all he did
was clean up the mess.

Here you go, Juggy.

And he would have
gotten away with it, too,

if it wasn't for a group of pesky
kids who uncovered the truth.

Even as Clifford Blossom,
consumed by guilt and shame,

took the coward's way out...

Jason's murder had
revealed some dark truths

none of us were too eager to face.

Especially not Mayor McCoy,

who wanted every last
vestige of corruption crushed

like a snake under a boot heel.

So, Blossom was the kingpin,

he funneled drugs through
Riverdale and then shipped them out.

What the Mayor and I care about is the
local component of Blossom's business.

Someone is selling his
drugs here in Riverdale.

- Mostly in the Southside...
- Hmm.

But it's started to cross
the tracks, recently, too.

- And you think it's the Serpents?
- Who else?

So here's the deal.

You feed us names, tell
me who's pushing the dope,

and the Mayor, the DA have a chat,

and maybe he'd be inclined to
offer you a lesser sentence.

Serpents don't get into the hard stuff.

It's dime bags of weed.

And I'm no snitch.

FP, if you don't help us
and your case goes to trial,

there will be no leniency.

You'll be looking at 20 years
in a federal penitentiary

for your part in the cover-up
of Jason Blossom's murder.

Dad?

You okay?

I thought I knew this town.

I bet everything on it.

If I could cut bait...

How are you holding up?

I mean, I'm... I'm dealing.

But for Jughead and for Betty
and Veronica, Dad, it's not over.

They're still in it. Big time.

We're all still in it. Up to our necks.

And when should I be
expecting Mr. Lodge?

Not until the end of the month,
but everything has to be perfect.

Yes, we would not want
to make Daddy angry.

That'll be all, Smithers. Thank you.

He's your father,
Veronica, not the Godfather.

They're acting like the last week and
the last few months didn't even happen.

Polly's back home, my dad's back home,

my mom's back at The Register.

They all just keep smiling
and talking about the Jubilee.

- That's good, right?
- No.

No, it's horrible.

It's exactly the way things were before,
pretending to be normal and perfect

when really, we're like...
Like a Greek suburban tragedy.

My family imploded, Arch,

and we barely survived.

If we don't start dealing with our
crap, it's all gonna happen again.

Okay, Archie.

Now that we're not actively
investigating a murder case,

we need to come clean to
Betty about our pas de deux.

- What?
- Our romance.

Aw, definitely. But, Ronnie,
we have to be careful.

The last time I had this kind of
conversation with Betty, it didn't go well.

Forget it, I'll tell her.

On top of everything else
I'm dealing with right now,

I'll tell Betty that we're semi-dating.

Archie Andrews, Betty Cooper,

report to the Principal's office.

Archie. Betty.

I'd like to feature
you both at the Jubilee.

As you know, it's our 75th
anniversary of our town's founding,

and also a kickoff
for the next 75 years.

And who better represents
the future of Riverdale

than the young people who, working
with Sheriff Keller and my office,

helped bring peace and justice
to our streets once more?

But, that's not exactly what happened...

Let the Mayor finish, Ms. Cooper.

Archie, the Pussycats will
be performing at the Jubilee,

and I would love for you to join them.

Betty, I think it's important that we
hear from Riverdale's best and brightest.

- What do you say, both of you?
- Uh...

What about Jughead?

I, uh... I like Jughead.

And he's welcome to attend
the Jubilee, of course.

But his father is in jail,

and think it might be confusing

to have him up on the Jubilee stage.

That's so unfair, Mayor McCoy.

Betty, Archie, you're heroes.

The kind of heroes that
Riverdale desperately

needs right about now.

I told her I wouldn't do it.

Not unless you're up there with us, Jug.

I appreciate the righteous
indignation, Betty, I do,

but Jubilees aren't my thing.

Jug, how's your dad? Did
you get in to see him?

Here's the latest.

Mayor McCoy wants my dad to name names

in exchange for a lesser sentence.

What? Whose names?

The Serpents. Sheriff Keller
thinks they're the ones

dealing the drugs that Clifford
Blossom brought into the town.

My dad says more and more
drugs are hitting the streets.

Kevin, relax, this isn't The Wire.

My dad says they're
not the ones dealing.

And meanwhile, Mayor McCoy
hasn't even said the words

"Clifford" or "Blossom" in public.

It's all about how the Serpents
are the problem, the villains.

This is outrageous.

I'm writing an article about this,

and not just for The Blue
and Gold, for The Register.

This is a town story.

Okay, as long as the article
doesn't include my dad.

No, it is going to be
about your dad, Jug.

It doesn't matter how many
Jubilees Mayor McCoy throws.

This town's changed. That
needs to be acknowledged.

Why are people so afraid of the truth?

Speaking of the truth...

Archie and I wanted to tell you...

We've kissed a couple of times.

It's okay, Vee.

I appreciate you being honest with me,

but I'm with Jughead now.

If you guys want to be
together, I'm happy for you.

Thanks, Bee.

Thanks, Betty.

It was to have been the grandest
funeral in Riverdale history.

Instead, he was buried like a pauper.

Why are you crying? You hated him.

Don't... Don't say that, Mommy...

We've always been cursed

ever since the original murder
when brother killed brother.

Who will the Grim Reaper
take next? You? Me?

Maybe your father had the
right idea. Just end it.

Better the sweet hereafter
than this awful limbo.

Betty, I know, you said, you're
okay about me and Veronica,

but I just wanted to
make sure, because...

Because last time I said
I was okay, I wasn't.

But this time, I promise I am.

Great.

You and Veronica, you're...

I like her, a lot. She's amazing.

But a little part of
me always thought...

We're both so lucky.

I mean, don't you think?

To have found the people
that we were meant to be with.

And that we're all friends.

I mean, who would have thought,

at the beginning of the school year?

Yeah.

Who would have thought?

You wanna tell me who
those guys are out there?

Our new crew. I let the Serpents go.

You fired them? Why would you do that?

The Mayor and Sheriff
Keller are cracking down.

Especially on the Serpents.

Those guys stood by us,
okay? When we had no one else.

Hiram is coming home.

I can't let him, or this project,

be associated with criminals.

You don't get to make
unilateral decisions.

'Cause we're partners, remember?

Actually, Hiram and I have talked,

and we'd like to buy you out.

Fred.

I've dragged you into a situation
that you never wanted to be a part of.

Make me an offer in writing.

I'll consider it.

It's really good, Archie.

Each song, you're
getting better and better.

- That's great, Josie.
- Yeah.

'Cause I was hoping we could...

Oh, we can't sing it at the Jubilee.

No, my mom already approved Astronaut.

- But my song is about...
- Your friends.

Who've been through
hell and back, I get it.

- Yeah. Exactly.
- Yeah. So...

The Jubilee, that's for the entire town.

Not just your friends.

It's the best thing you've ever written.

It's passionate, it's compelling, but...

But you won't publish it.

- Why not?
- You're too involved.

People out there are going to think

that you wrote it as a favor
to your boyfriend's dad.

No, I wrote it because
this is the truth.

It's one version of the truth, honey.

Oh, my God. Mom.

You're just as bad as Mayor McCoy.

We're just as bad as this whole town.

The other reason we don't want
you publishing this anywhere,

is there's been reports of
attacks on the Southside.

What?

Betty, people, not just the police,

are going after the Serpents.

The whole town agrees with Mayor McCoy.

Crime is spreading.

There's real anger out there, Betty.

And they're needing
to focus it somewhere.

Right now, it's the Serpents,

and we don't want you
suddenly becoming a target.

Cheryl, I'm so sorry I'm late.

All you missed was my abdication.

The Vixens are in the gym

awaiting you, their new directorix.

- What?
- And I wanted to give you this.

Your HBIC shirt?

These last few days have
put things in perspective.

I understand.

But if you personally need anything...

I'm fine.

I've shed my tears for the Blossom men.

It was chilling, Betty.

I'm telling you, there are some
dark goings on at Thornhill.

Well, not just at Thornhill. Town wide.

You can feel it. Something
wicked this way comes.

Which reminds me, I loved your article.

Good, because I already posted it

on the Blue and Gold's website,

with hardcopies in
circulation tomorrow morning.

Betty, now that it's just us girls,

and at the risk of us
failing the Bechdel test,

are you legitimately
cool with Archie and me?

Swear on the September issue?

And on my copy of Forever by Judy Blume.

Aw, I miss this.

Gossiping, doing homework,
being a River Vixen.

Basically just going to school.

Then come back.

Mom doesn't want me to.

Naturally, but what she
doesn't know won't hurt her.

That hottie kept looking at you.

Hey, guys. Um...

This is Ms. Weiss from Social Services.

She's, uh... She's
Jughead's case worker.

Jughead, I know how
terrible and emotional

the last few days have been for you.

Your father's facing serious jail time.

Your mom's over-extended
and out of state.

We just want to make sure
that you're taken care of.

Well, he can keep staying
with us, right, Dad?

I offered already, Arch.

Great, so what's the problem?

It was a DUl.

After your mom left. Look,
we can talk about this later

but between that and my cash
flow problem, it knocks me out.

There is a family on the Southside
that's offered to foster you.

They're good people, they've
worked with us before.

That doesn't sound completely horrible.

It does mean you'll be in a
different school district, Jughead,

and you'll have to transfer schools.

What the hell? When is all
this supposed to happen?

The paperwork's been processed.

Unless there is a radical
change in your father's case,

you'll be on the Southside
by the end of the week.

They're saying he has to live on
the Southside, with a foster family,

and then transfer to Southside High.

That place is no joke.

If there's a deal on the table,
Mr. Jones, you've gotta take it.

It tears me up, Red, but
the Serpents are my tribe.

They're also innocent, not
that anyone in this town cares.

We care, believe me. But...

Nobody wants you to go to jail for
20 years, especially not Jughead.

That kid knows what's what.

He knows you can't betray
the folks that stand by you.

- Who got your back.
- And that's the Serpents?

When the time comes, they'll step up.

Hey, Jughead's a tough kid.

Scrappy. A survivor.

He'll make it.

Especially if you're looking after him.

And he'll try to pull away from you,

he'll try to disappear into himself.

He needs his friends.

That's why you and Betty,
you gotta stick with him.

No matter what.

He's got some darkness in him.

Betty's babysitting
Polly, mind if I join you?

Are you sure you want to sit
at the social pariah table?

I've been sitting at it for months,
why should today be any different?

By the way, I've been thinking.

You and I have a lot in common.

Oh, because my dad's going to
prison and your dad is getting out?

We're dating each other's best
friends, I was going to say.

But yes, the prison thing, too.

Jughead.

I'm sorry.

I had no right to pummel
you the way I did that day.

As recompense, I'd
like to give you this.

My iconic spider brooch.

It'll catch a pretty penny
at the local pawn shop.

Enough to keep you in burgers
and "S" T-shirts for years,

if not decades.

Cheryl, what is going on?

- I'm...
- Guys, hurry. It's Betty's locker.

Come on, it's bad. Come on, come on!

What's going on?

Come with us.

Check it out!

Betty.

Betty. Hey, no...

It's nothing, Jug, it's just a
jerk with a can of spray paint.

I don't think that's spray paint, okay?

It was pig's blood, Dad.

Where do you even get pig's blood?

I wanna slam whoever
did that through a wall.

Betty's getting threats. Jughead
is being thrown into a snake pit,

and I can't do anything to help them.

Sometimes you help
them just by showing up.

I've been showing up all year, Dad.

And it hasn't made
one bit of difference.

We're getting our asses kicked.

As long as you're with me, you're
writing articles about me and my dad,

trouble's just gonna keep
coming at you from all sides.

- It was just one jerk.
- It's not just one jerk.

It's Mayor McCoy. It's Sheriff Keller.

It's Weatherbee, it's Social Services,

it's the entire multiverse telling
me that I don't belong here,

- so why don't I just do everyone a favour...
- Hey, hey.

You belong here just as
much as everyone else.

This is your home.

- You know that, right?
- Yeah.

Yes.

Let me guess, for Daddy?

Veronica, wait.

You and Archie...

Getting closer?

Maybe, why do you ask?

Your father and I made Fred an offer

to buy out the SoDale contract,

but Fred is still on the fence about it.

I was hoping maybe you
could talk to Archie.

Maybe he could convince Fred to sell?

Yeah, sure, Mom. No problem.

I'll just sexually manipulate
Archie into doing my bidding.

As long as you're in control.

Oh, my God, Mom, I was kidding.

Also, why are you trying to
push Fred out of this deal?

He's the only person in
this town who was loyal.

- Who was good to you.
- Your father is coming back.

He and Fred? They will not get along.

- So, you took Polly to school?
- I'm so sorry, Betty.

Nothing happened at school, it was fine.

Fine?

So, no one wrote on your locker,

"Go to hell, Serpent Slut,"

and hung a Betty doll from a noose?

Jeez, Poll. Is there
anything you didn't tell her?

She wouldn't stop grilling me!

I warned you, Elizabeth,
about publishing that article.

- Why do you constantly defy me?
- Because.

I'm sick of all the secrets and the
lies in this town and in this family.

I would much rather take
some heat for being honest

than do what you're doing.

Living in fear of the truth.

I am scared for you,
Elizabeth, not of the truth.

Oh, really?

Let's go then.

You talk a big game
about liking Jughead,

but wouldn't you be much
happier if we weren't together?

Thought so.

Question number two,

when you invited FP over for dinner,

he said that you and
Dad got in a huge fight

when you were in high
school, at Homecoming.

Your mom ever tell you about that night?

Shut up, FP.

- What was that about?
- I don't know what you're talking about.

Oh, come on, Mom. I saw
the look on your face.

You were terrified.

What were you so scared
he was going to say?

That is none of your damn business!

Dad was keeping a secret
that almost destroyed us.

How many are you keeping?

Mommy, I was going to ask.

Can I stay at home today?

Absolutely not.

It's so hard, Mommy,
pretending everything's...

I don't care.

Here for round two?

There are some secrets
that are so painful,

you not only hide them from the world,

but you hide them from yourself.

What do you mean?

The night of the Homecoming,

when your father and I
were crowned King and Queen,

the fight that FP saw,

I had just told your
father that I was pregnant.

And we disagreed on
how best to handle...

Things.

And we had a really big fight.

And the next day, I went away.

To the Sisters of Quiet Mercy.

Yeah.

And five months later,
your brother was born.

The Sisters arranged
for a quiet adoption.

Oh, my God, Mom. I'm so sorry.

It's the biggest regret of my life.

I'm so sorry. I'm sorry, honey.

It's okay, Mom.

The craziest thing is, I have a
secret brother out there in the world.

It's positively Dickensian.
I love a long-lost brother.

- How old would he
be? - Mid-twenties.

Oh, my God. A blond Adonis, no doubt.

Hey, where are you? Have
you been getting my messages?

Oh, my God. What?

This is where I belong, okay?

Let's talk about this after school.

Please don't worry about me.

- Where is he?
- Southside High.

He said it's where he belongs

and that no one wants him here.

FP warned me Jughead
would cut himself off,

go to the dark side.

Archie, we can't let him do that.

Where would he be?

Cafeteria.

Jug...

What are you guys doing here?

I didn't tell you ahead of time

because I knew you
would've tried to stop me.

Damn straight. And I'm still gonna try.

Betty, the Southside is where
the powers that be want me.

Maybe I wanna be here as well.
I may blend in better here.

And it would keep you safe.

I'm not letting Riverdale's
civil war split us apart, Jug.

They're each other's soulmates.

Good for them, don't you think?

Archie, what is it?

Ronnie, I...

Wait.

Thanks for trying. I'm
going to be with Jason now.

- Oh, my God.
- What?

Where would Cheryl go to be with Jason?

- Sweetwater River.
- We have to go!

Guys, we have to go!

Cheryl?

Cheryl?

Cheryl?

She's not here.

- Over there! Oh, my God.
- She's over there!

Cheryl!

Cheryl, stop! What are you doing?

Wait, wait! Wait, Jug!

The ice. He's right.

Too much weight, and we'll all go under.

Cheryl!

Cheryl, please.

Just come to the shore and we'll
figure this out together, okay?

No!

Cheryl!

Cheryl!

- Cheryl!
- Cheryl!

The current has her.

Spread out, spread out!

She's here! She's here!

- Archie, be careful!
- Help!

Somebody help!

Archie!

Come on!

Cheryl!

Hey.

Hot chocolate?

With a little splash
of peppermint liqueur.

- Thank you.
- No problem.

Are you warm enough?

What is she doing here?

She got in an accident.

And she needed help,
so I brought her here.

I'll just warm up and go home.

Fine, Ronnie.

Let's go. I'll give you
a ride to the Jubilee.

Already got one with
Archie, Lady Macbeth.

- Ready, sweetheart?
- Almost.

Don't be nervous about your speech.

Just be your wonderful self.

It's not about the speech, Mom.

It's Jughead.

He's moving in with a foster family

and transferring to Southside High.

And he says it won't
change anything between us,

but...

It will.

That's what you get for
punching a river of ice.

Are you sure you should be performing?

Freshman year, I played the
whole season with a broken hand.

Well, a taped-up hand.

Hey. You okay?

When we were at Southside High,

you were looking at Betty and Jughead...

I don't know, wistfully.

- Wistfully?
- Longingly.

Like you liked Betty.

I do. I always will.

As friends.

The moment you're talking about,

I was seeing Betty and Jughead

and I was seeing how good they were,

and it confirmed how I've
been feeling this last week.

I want to be that for you.

A soulmate?

A broad shoulder I can
cry on every now and then?

Yeah.

I'd love that, Archie.

Earlier, your girl Vee, here,

called to tell me what
happened with Cheryl.

I've reconsidered something.

About your song.

Welcome, one and all,

to Riverdale's 75th
anniversary Jubilee celebration!

I couldn't be any more
thrilled to introduce

my daughter, Josie, and her Pussycats,

as they perform alongside our
local hero, Archie Andrews!

Hi, hi, everyone.

We're switching things up tonight.

We are singing a song that
my boy, Archie Andrews, wrote.

So...

♪ Every moment we're together ♪

♪ Is a moment I remember ♪

Sheriff Keller tells me that you
still haven't given any names.

He's hoping I can
convince you otherwise.

I've been sweating it out, Jug, and, uh,

the only conclusion I've come
to is that both options suck.

Hey, I wanted to let you know that I...

I'm gonna be okay.

I met the foster family
that's taking me in.

They're nice.

What about Southside High?

It's a high school.

It's got the jocks, and the
burnouts, and the nerds... The like.

- But I'll survive.
- You just might.

Jughead, listen to me.

I'm more innocent than I am guilty,

but I've done some...

Some stupid things, some bad things,

and come what may,

I have to answer for my
part of it, you understand?

I don't know what's gonna
happen when this goes to trial,

but you need to be there

for your mom, for Jellybean.

They might not need
you right this second...

I'll do my best.

Not a doubt in my mind.

Go on.

♪ My love, my heart ♪

♪ I wanna share it with you ♪

♪ When it seems too hard to bear ♪

♪ I'll be here, I'll be there ♪

Good evening, ladies and gentleman.

I'd like to thank Mayor McCoy for
inviting me to speak on this historic day.

Seventy-five years of Riverdale...

But what is Riverdale?

It's the people, right?

You, me, our friends, our neighbors.

Riverdale is Archie Andrews.

Kevin Keller is Riverdale.

Veronica Lodge, she's Riverdale.

But you know who else is Riverdale?

FP Jones,

who we were so quick to
blame for Jason's murder.

Jughead Jones is Riverdale,

the very soul of Riverdale.

Without him, we may
not have ever found out

what happened to Jason.

And yet how do we thank
him? By banishing him.

Which is what we do when the
truth gets too ugly in Riverdale.

Truth being that Clifford
Blossom was also Riverdale.

Riverdale's at a crossroads.

If we don't face the reality
of who and what we are,

if we keep lying to ourselves and
keeping secrets from each other,

then what happened to
Jason could happen again.

Or, God forbid, something even worse.

Riverdale must do better.

We must do better.

Fred.

Have you given any more
thought to my offer?

Yes, it is a, uh, very generous offer.

I'm not selling, Hermione.

I... I told you, it's in
your best interest to get out

before Hiram comes back.

Is it in your best interests?

What's best for the town?
Didn't you hear Betty?

Riverdale is at a crossroads,
and I think you are, too.

So I will see you at work, partner.

To Archie Andrews, who saved the
cheerleader and saved the town.

You know what, actually I
think it was Betty's speech.

Here, here to Betty Cooper.

- Cheers.
- Cheers.

We had many milkshakes that night,

and we all felt that as dangerous
as the world around us had become,

here, at least in this
booth, we were safe.

Cheryl?

- Cheryl?
- In here, Mother.

What is that smell?

Gasoline.

It's the only way we can
truly start over, be purified.

Oh, God.

Wow, it looks great in here.

I cleaned it up after
Sheriff Keller thrashed it.

Just in case my dad...

Until he gets out, I'm
not giving up on him, Jug.

Hell no.

That is why I love you, Betty.

I love you, Betty Cooper.

Jughead Jones.

I love you.

What about your mom?

At this hour, after mixing her
reds and whites at the Jubilee,

she's no doubt sleeping soundly
in the arms of Prince Valium.

So, come on in, but keep it quiet, okay?

We've had this day with each other

from the very beginning, Archiekins.

Oh, my God.

Is that your mom?

Who else would it be?

Easy, Hot Dog. He's family.

Hey.

Heard your dad could have
named names but didn't.

Serpents take care of their own.

We wanted you to know, no
matter what happens to him,

however long he's gone,
we've got your back.

This is yours,

if you want it.

Juggy?

Leaving without saying goodbye?

Didn't know you were such
a scoundrel, Archiekins.

I was trying not to wake you.

My dad texted me asking me to
meet at Pop's for breakfast,

which is what we do when he wants to
talk to me about something serious.

Probably me staying out all night.

I'll call you later.

Hey, Casanova. I, uh...
I ordered you the usual.

Thanks, Dad. I'm just
gonna go wash my hands.

Who's in charge here?
Show me where the safe is!

There is no safe!

You've got a safe. Show me where it is!

- Where's the safe, old man?
- There ain't no safe.

Show me where the safe is!

Give me your wallet!

Imagine this instant, frozen in time.

People will look back at
this as the exact moment

that last bit of Riverdale's
innocence finally died.

When darkness won.

Marked by an act of violence,

that was anything but random.
