[Jughead] Previously on
Riverdale...

If we divorce,

I can testify against you
in court.

And no one would believe
that the she-wolf
of Wall Street

didn't know
about the dirty dealings
going on in her own business.

[Veronica] Archie...

I'm staying in New York.

Ronnie...
don't do this.

I'm not going to stop
looking for Polly.

I will get justice, Mom.

[Jughead]
I have a favor to ask.

I have
some personal trauma
that I can't access...

I need someone that I trust
to just watch over me.

[Tabitha] You have to get some
real writing done.

I'll be back in the morning.

-Write.
-Tabitha.

Tabitha, don't!

Oh...

my God.

Uncle Frank, Kevin's dad
said there was a prison break.

-[clock beeps rapidly]
-Boom.

[Frank] I overheard some
of my fellow inmates
saying they're getting paid

to trash the town,
especially this school.

[Archie] Only Hiram Lodge
would be crazy enough
to do that.

Hiram's escapees
trashed everything.

They pulled wires from walls,
smashed circuit breakers,

even broke sinks and toilets.

How long till we can
get this place

back in shape, Mr. Andrews?

Well, we're looking at
at least three weeks.

And that's if I can
pull a crew together.

Count me in, Archie.

Well, let's get started.

I guess it's back
to remote learning.

[doorbell rings]

Miss Veronica. Welcome back.

Smithers.

Oh! Is that
my special delivery?

Oh, yes, it came last night.

Uh, there's something
you should know.

-Your father--
-Wait, let me get eyes
on the opal first.

Uh...

Oh, Smithers...

My gem contact in Ethiopia
did not lie.

This blue opal is even more
stunning than I imagined!

And just in time, too.

I've got a buyer
coming into town
from Montreal, Mr. Sand.

I can use the commission
from the sale of this gem

to start paying back
Chad's investors.

Something happened
while you were gone.

Your father's prison
was compromised.

What?

The town was flooded
with convicts

wreaking havoc and mayhem.

Hit hardest was Riverdale High.

Oh, my God!

[knocking at door]

Archie. Thank God.

I heard about the prison break.

-Are you okay?
-I'm fine.

I mean, the school's
a mess, but it could
have been a lot worse.

How did things go with Chad?

Did he sign the divorce papers?

Uh... not exactly.

Chad threw me a curveball.

I could explain,
but for legal reasons,

it's better you don't
know the details.

I know, I'm sorry.

I really hate that I'm
dragging you through this.

I appreciate it, Ronnie,

but until you and Chad
are officially done,

I think we should
keep our distance.

I mean, we can be friends,
but that's it.

Not until those papers
are signed.

I suppose that makes sense.

And I'm gonna be busy anyway.

I told Tom that I'd help him
round up any convicts
who are still causing trouble.

-Only when I feel like it.
-Well, you are legally senile.

[Penelope] Good
morning, sisters.

What are you so happy about?

Life, Cheryl. Everlasting life.

Whilst in prison,
I started my own ministry.

And now that I'm free,

I can see plainly
that continuing my good work

is precisely what this
wicked little town needs.

We'll hold two services a day,
right here on the estate.

A ministry.

Shouldn't you be
hiding in the walls again

per chance the po-po
come a knocking?

-Actually...
-[cup clinks]

due to my
active spiritual work,

I was up for early parole.

What we need is money.

Not some sham religion
created by and for convicts.

God is on our side, child.

When we start this church,
he will provide.

[cell vibrating]

-Hello?
-[woman on phone]
Is this Betty?

Yeah, who's this?

It's Tabitha. Tabitha Tate.

Hi.

[Tabitha] Listen, I know
this is out of the blue,

but I can't find
Jughead anywhere.

I was supposed
to watch him, long story,

but now he's missing,
and I'm worried about him.

Look, Jughead's
been known to go off grid

for days at a time.

[sighs]

But I can stop
by Pop's tomorrow

and check in with you
if you want.

I appreciate that.

-Thank you, Betty.
-[Betty] Yeah.

[bell dinging]

Give me all the cash
in your register!

-Now!
-Okay, no problem.
Please just don't hurt anyone.

Give me the money!

[Tom] Jeremiah Peterson.

Serving five to ten years

for two counts
of armed robbery.

Well, it's about to be three

unless you can help us
find your fellow escapees.

Most of them are long gone.

High-tailed it out of Riverdale
right after the prison break.

-But a few stayed behind.
-How many?

I want a lawyer
and some more meds.

Maybe after he's had some rest
and some painkillers,

he'll want to talk to us.

Mmm. I'll look in
on him periodically.

All right.

[Veronica] Isn't it beautiful?

I was tracking this opal
down for months.

-Finally came in.
-[knocking at door]

-It's sublime.
-[door buzzing]

[door closes]

Well, isn't this a small world?

Wait.

You're those psychos from
Thanksgiving seven years ago.

Don't even think
about it, darling.

Hands up, both of you.

Dodger, smash and grab!

We'll take that, too.

Hope your insurance
is all paid up.

What the hell just happened?

Hey, guys, you should see this.

[Governor Dooley on TV]
...managed to round up

the majority
of these criminals.

But we believe there's
a small group of escapees

that are still at large
in the town formerly
knowns as Riverdale

Local philanthropist,
Hiram Lodge, and I

are offering a reward
for any information

that may lead to a safe capture
of any and all prisoners.

Wait, so Hiram sets free
a bunch of cons

and now he's offering a reward
for bringing them back?

It's a PR stunt to paint
themselves as heroes.

[sighs]

Archie, where are you going?

We need money
to fix this school,

and they're offering it.

I'm rounding up some criminals
and I'm cashing in.

[Hiram] Well,
if it isn't my old friend.

Hello, Archie.

Hiram. Governor Dooley.

I saw the press conference.

I'm going after your prisoners
for the bounties.

Do you have a list
of the missing convicts?

Here is at least
some of the names

of the inmates
confirmed to be at large.

Thank you. You'll hear from me.

And keep your checkbook handy.

This is a mess, Hiram.

Blowing up the prison was never
a part of our greater plans.

-As far as you know.
-Cut the crap!

Just give me my cut
of the palladium.

I've told you,
over and over again, Governor,

that we didn't find any
beneath the prison, sadly.

And I don't
believe you, partner.

But I'll give you 24 hours
to change your tune.

Be careful out there, Donald.

A lot of dangerous folk
still on the loose.

Might wanna watch your back.

-[door buzzes]
-[doorbell jingles]

[Reggie] Ronnie.

You said you needed my help,

but I'm done
doing clean-up work.

Reggie, thanks to your
and my father's machinations,

that thug, Dodger Dickenson,

and his crazy mom
ravaged my store.

They got away
with half my stock.

Not to mention
an Ethiopian blue opal

which you, Reginald,
are going to help me find.

Yeah, no. This is not
high school, Ronnie.

I work for one Lodge,
and it's not you.

How did that even happen?

My dad got into
some money troubles

and turned
to your dad for help.

Now I'm working off
my old man's debt.

Reggie, it's not too late
to switch sides.

Fight with the good guys.

Nah, the bad guys pay better.

But I'll help you find
your rock for old times' sake.

Thank you, Reggie.

[doorbell jingles]

Wow, so Jughead
is taking psychedelics

to help him write, now.

I guess I'm only
sort of surprised, actually.

I thought if I cuffed him,

he'd be contained
until I came back.

But I couldn't stay.
Not after...

What?

When he was high,
he made a pass at me.

And when I rebuffed him,
he said...

What did he say?

He said, "Don't
be a such a Betty.

First sign of fun,
you try to kill it."

Okay, um, I'm sorry

that Jughead put you
in this really awful position,

but he shouldn't really be
my problem anymore.

Or yours for that matter.

But yeah. Yeah, I'll help.

Last time I didn't act on
a missing person was my sister.

We'll start at the bunker.
I wanna see it for myself.

Thanks.

Hey. What are you giving him?
That's my prisoner.

Darla Dickenson?

Didn't realize I'd made such
an impression on you folks.

[Jeremiah gasping]

Mission accomplished.

In about two minutes,

Jeremiah won't be saying
much of anything to anyone.

Oh, and I hooked us
a little bonus prize, too.

Well, he left his phone here.

That's never a good sign.

Okay, although this will be
potentially cringey,

I think we should read
Jughead's manuscript.

See if there's any clues about

where he may have
wandered off to.

We'll each take half.

What am I looking for?

Any conspicuous locations
or people that he mentions.

Anything that might be a lead.

[sighs]

[men laughing]

Oh, what do we have here?

Fallen on hard times, friend?

-I'm just trying to keep warm.
-[man chuckling]

Hey, uh, you wanna
make some money?

-No, I'm good.
-No, really, take it. I insist.

Oops.

[laughs]

[Jughead grunting]

[Jughead groans]

[men laughing]

[Jughead panting]

Uncle Frank, my mom's
building a case

that should grant you
an early release

because of the heroism
you showed

the night of the prison break.

If you can help us
find these convicts,

it should bolster your chances.

Oh, hell yeah,
I'll help you find 'em.

I might even know where
some of these guys are hiding.

I also heard
of a group of convicts

squatting at an old
tuna fish warehouse
out on the docks.

Great, we'll start there.

-No answer?
-No.

Straight to voicemail again.
Thanks for asking.

I talked to your dad
earlier, Kev.

He knew we were meeting here.

Well, it's Riverdale.
He could be doing
literally anything.

Onwards with the plan.
Are we going in armed?

Yeah. Batons, tasers,
and zip ties.

No guns, minimal bloodshed.

Let's go get 'em.

All this stuff about Mothmen
and Mole People.

Where did Jughead
get the shrooms anyways?

His ex, Jessica, came up
from New York to deliver them.

Maybe he's reached out to her.

Seven years later,
still the same passcode.

[phone ringing]

[woman on phone] Hey, Jones,
How was your trip?

-Is this Jessica?
-[Jessica] Yeah,
who the hell is this?

This is Betty Cooper. I'm--

[Jessica] Wait, the Betty?

Oh, my God, I have
so many questions for you.

I'm calling because you sold
Jughead psychedelic mushrooms,

and now he's missing.

Has he reached out to you?

[Jessica] No, but don't worry.

Sometimes when
he has writer's block,

Jones goes on these walkabouts,
he calls 'em.

Um, he's not blocked,
he wrote his book.

Such as it is.

[Jessica] I thought
"Diner Girl"

was supposed to watch him.

He slipped past her.

[Jessica] Amateur. I'll come up
to help you look for him.

No, that's
really not necessary.

[Jessica] Also,
he owes me, like, $500.

Text me your address.

Okay, I guess we'll
see you tomorrow.

Maybe she can actually help us.

Also, I'm a little curious
to meet her now.

Efforts are afoot
to rebuild Riverdale.

But this town shan't be saved
until its soul is saved.

[Penelope] What say ye?

[Nana Rose and the congregants]
We pray our souls be saved.

Amen, I say back to ye.

Now, give yourselves over
to the holy sweetness.

Drink of his sweet water
and be saved.

Who exactly is "He," Mumsie?

Whose sweet water
are they tasting?

The sweetness of this water

comes from a son

who died for the sins
and the darkness of this world.

I speak of my son... Jason.

For years, I searched
to find meaning in his death.

But then, I realized something.

Jason was a sacrifice

to lay bare the sins
of this accursed place.

[chuckles]

[Penelope] And
now it is up to us

to shepherd the soul
of this township

back into the light.

[exhales] To that end,

if you have any coins or bills
that you could spare,

even a penny
will help to ensure

Riverdale's spiritual future.

Praise be.

I'm gonna drain the vein.

-What the hell?
-There are warrants
out for your arrest.

We're taking you in.

You don't have guns.

That was a bad idea.

Drop it, before I drop you.

Let's go.

[Archie] What are you
doing here, Ronnie?

Our old nemeses,
Dodger and Darla Dickenson,

stole my blue opal.

I just got one of the cons
to spill.

Dodger was here
talking up some fancy rock,

-but slipped out before
you clowns stormed in.
-[cell phone vibrating]

That's my buyer.
He's getting restless.

Okay. I have to deal with him,

but Archie, please,

I need you to find Dodger
and Darla and get my opal back.

All right, let me
just get this straight.

You went off to New York,
which I didn't want you to do,

you may or may not
have spent the night
with your husband,

who definitely didn't sign
any divorce papers,

and now you want me
to go find some rock for you?

I'm sorry about what happened
with me and Chad.

But you're going
after the Dickensons
no matter what, right?

Then you can get me my opal.

Fine.

[dog barking in distance]

[breathing raggedly]

Hey. You should rest.
You're banged up pretty bad.

-You changed my bandages?
-Yes, sir.

You've got a fever.
Probably an infection.

I gave you aspirin,
but what you really
need are antibiotics.

Sent a pal of mine out
to score you some.

You're shivering. Here.

[groans] Thanks.

[exhales]

Thanks.

Yeah, those guys, they kicked
the tar out of ya. [chuckles]

-You're lucky you're alive.
-[exhales]

I'm lucky you were there.
What's your name?

Calvin. But people call me Doc.

[Jughead] There's this
one guy named Doc.

He would stay up all night

just to make sure the junkies
didn't mess with me.

And one day,

these drunken businessmen

who had heard about
our little shantytown,

they found Doc.

They beat the life out of him.

I didn't move,
I didn't say anything.

I watched.

[Doc] What's yours?

-Henry.
-Well, Henry,

You wanna tell me how
you ended up on Sketch Alley?

-Uh... I took some shrooms.
-[Doc] Mmm-hmm.

I had a bad trip.

I was in and out for a while.

And then I guess
I wandered here.

[sighs] I really should go.
Thank you very much.

No, whoa, hey.

You're not going anywhere.

Look, my friend
will be back soon.

Until then, you sleep.

[groans and coughs]

[Doc] There you go.

[Hiram] Donald, it's Hiram.

I have some new information

regarding what we were
discussing earlier.

If you could meet me ASAP,
I'm at the office.

Satisfied?

Not until I get my share
of the palladium.

Or you're dead.

Or both.

[Betty] Archie said Jughead
has been living in here.

[Tabitha] Oh, my God.

Well, Jessica,
what do you think?

Our apartment back in New York
was even messier.

What the hell has he been
doing these days?

The maple mushrooms
I gave Jones

shouldn't have triggered
a psychotic episode.

Was he taking anything else?

Not that I know of.

Well, we should confirm that.

Luckily, I know all
about hiding places.

Especially his.

We can search for him
and his stashes.

See if there are
any other drugs

he might have been sampling.

Where else could
he be hiding out?

Or hiding contraband?

Well, it's a long shot,

but he did live
under the stairs

at Riverdale High once.

And he has a desk there,
same as the rest of us.

Well, that's our
next stop, then.

Well, he is not
in the teacher's lounge.

He's not
under the stairs.

Pretty sure he's not hiding
in a desk drawer.

Where would he have done
most of his writing,

if not here or his crib?

Well, the bunker.
But we already checked it.

Yeah, but you don't
necessarily know
what we're looking for.

Take me there.

Okay.

You're shameless, Mumsie.

Swindling those people
out of their money

whilst defiling
the memory of Jay-Jay.

I am doing
no such thing.

[scoffs] I've spent
enough time with corpses
to know the truth.

There is no invisible world,
just eternal rot.

We're worm food at best.

Do you honestly
believe that?

Well, there was a time
when I wanted

to believe
in something more.

The time
when I actually thought

I was speaking to Jay-Jay
in the beyond.

But you ruined that.

Your gaslighting,
your lies,

your deranged
Julian doll.

You showed me that
there is nothing eternal,

just the cruelty
of mothers.

Any faith I had
went up in flames

when I give Jason
his Viking funeral.

But, Cheryl, there is a realm
beyond this mortal coil,

where maple syrup
flows in rivers.

Don't you want to be part
of something larger?

Of course I do.

I just don't think
you're a part of it, Mother.

[cell phone ringing]

[Veronica] Daddy,
I can't talk right now.

[man] Veronica Lodge.
You don't know me,

but my associates and I
have taken your father hostage.

See, he owes me something,
and he won't give it over.

So, if you want to see him
or his fellow captives,

Governor Dooley,
or Sheriff Keller,
alive again,

you better follow
my instructions.

-What do you want?
-Palladium.

We dug it out of the ground
for your father,

and now,
we want our share.

But he won't tell us
where it is.

So I thought maybe you
could get through to him.

We're at the El Royale.
There's three of them.
He's got--

Daddy!

Do not cooperate
with these thugs.

What the hell
is palladium?

[Hiram] I don't know
what they're talking about.

-[gun fires]
-[man groans]

-Daddy?
-That was Double D

putting a bullet
into Governor Dooley's stomach.

It'll probably
take a few hours
for him to bleed out.

The next bullet
goes into your father.

So, if you want
to save their lives,
find me that palladium!

Wait. Double D?

Is Dodger Dickenson there?

And does he have
a blue opal?

He might.

I'll get you
the palladium.

But I want my father
and the others back.

And my opal.

-Deal.
-[Veronica] I'll be in touch.

What was that about?

Reggie, what do you know
about my dad and palladium?

Okay, now I'm
officially worried.

My dad has never been
out of touch this long.

Your dad's been
in tough spots before, Kev.

He'll be okay.

-[cell phone ringing]
-We're gonna find him.

-Veronica?
-Archie, where are you?

I'm at home.

We haven't found Dodger
or his mom yet.

I know where they are.

They're with some
other guy named Ted.

Oh, crap.

I know that guy.
He's a beast.

They're holed up
at the El Royale,

and they're
keeping my father,
Governor Dooley

and Sheriff Keller
hostage.

-[Archie] Wait, what?
-[Veronica] They're looking
for a stash of palladium,

but Reggie thinks
he knows where it is.

Can you meet us
at Daddy's SoDale office?

Yeah, we're on our way.

I know
where your dad is.

Confirmed. My father
is literally Lex Luthor.

If he's hiding any palladium,
it's in there.

Archie, you still ride
with those tools in the back
of your truck?

Yes, I do.

Do you guys want
to give me a hand?

And I will track down
a dolly.

Well done, fellas.

[Jessica]
Depressing.

I can see why
Jones likes this place.

Damn it. Where is it?

Where's what?
What are you even
looking for?

At the moment,
Jones's manuscript.

Uh, I have it.

I took it with me
when we searched
this place earlier.

Can I read it?

Is there anything in there
that will help us find Jones?

Not that
we could pinpoint.

Okay.

Hmm. New idea.

If this is where he tripped,
should we do the same?

-I'm sorry, what?
-I have some shrooms.

They're from the same batch
that I gave Jones.

If we take some,
maybe we could see
what he saw,

experience what he experienced.

It will be like
retracing his steps.

Can you just
give us a sec?

We've just never
tripped before.

-Yeah.
-Just gonna...

We're not going to do that.

What is she trying
to pull here?

[Betty] I don't know
but she gave him drugs,

she's trying
to get us to take drugs.

Clearly she's got
multiple agendas going on.

This was, I think,
a really bad idea.

-Let's pivot.
-[Jessica] New new idea.

I'm wondering if I should
go back to New York.

You two clearly have
Riverdale covered.

But what if Jughead
is on his way back there
to confront his demons?

-That might be a good idea.
-Good idea.

But it is a long ride
back to the city.

Can we...
Can we grab a bite
before I go?

Jones couldn't stop talking
about Pop's when I met him.

-Yeah, for sure.
-Mmm-hmm.

Okay. Come on, ladies.
It'll be my treat.

[objects clattering
in the distance]

[people clamoring indistinctly]

Doc?

[objects clattering
in the distance]

[groans]

[cell phone ringing]

Did you get
the palladium?

[Veronica]
Yes, but there's a catch.

It's locked in a safe.

We have it,
but not the combination.
Luckily--

I have the man
who does.

All right.

But I want you
to make the delivery,
not your boyfriend.

Just you.

Deal. I'll be there
in half an hour.

I give you the safe,
you give me my opal
and free the hostages.

And Archie tells me
you're a military man,

so I know
you'll honor your word.

Okay. What's the plan, boys?

Once I'm inside,
I can buy us, say,
30 seconds.

Ted knows the El Royale.
That's why he chose it.

He'll have eyes
on all the entrances.

[Archie] No, not all.

When I took over the gym,
I put in a new roof.

There's an old skylight
covered with tarpaper.

We tear it off
and drop in like Batman,
with the element of surprise.

And he doesn't know
you're working with us,
Uncle Frank,

which gives us
a small advantage.

They've got my dad.
I'm going in, too.

Count me in as well.

Same.

Good.

We'll need the manpower
against Ted.

[sighs]

You really didn't
have to do that.

I own this diner.

No way.

I love splurging
on new friends.

It's a lesson I live by.

Help out when you can.
And maybe don't leave
people alone

when they're tripping
on maple mushrooms.

I assumed he'd be safe
in the handcuffs.

Well, another lesson,

maybe don't give
psychedelics shrooms
to someone in a delicate state.

Yeah? How about
don't betray your boyfriend
the way you did?

Getting with his best friend,
that's some Shakespearean
level treachery.

Okay. Yeah.

Clearly, in the stories
Jughead has been telling,

he's cast himself
as the blameless victim here.

But Jughead
is not so innocent.

Yeah. No, actually, he left me

this voicemail,
mmm, two years ago.

[Jughead] Betty,
where the hell are you?

You said you were gonna come
to my release party,

but, what, you bailed?

Of course you bailed.

You've just been
blowing me off for years.

Why should I have even
expected anything different?

You know,
I see you, Betty.

I see what I should have seen
seven years ago.

You pretend to be nice,
but you're only looking
for weak spots.

And when you find them,
you press on them
like a bruise.

Like when you hooked up
with Archie.

You know,
you found the one person

that would hurt
both me and Veronica,
and you just went there.

You're a cold, fake,
duplicitous bitch.

And once people read my book,
everyone's going to see that.

-Wow. That's darkness.
-Yeah.

I was living
with Jughead then.

Yeah, things were good
for a while.

But then
these writing deadlines

started to get
the best of him,

and he started spiraling
into this destructive behavior.

To be fair, so did I.
I'm a writer as well.

I mean,
we cared about each other.

We just weren't
good for each other,
you know?

I couldn't be around
that energy, so I got out.

Hmm. Are you guys hot?

-[Betty] Mmm-mmm.
-I'm feeling hot.

Oh, crap.

I feel bad now,
but I'm just going to say it.

When I got the fries,
I sprinkled some dried
maple mushrooms on them.

-Are you kidding me?
-You did what?

I knew
they tasted different.

I'm sorry.
I was just going to chill

until you guys
started tripping,

and then
grab the manuscript.

Wait, is that why
you came here?

Why didn't you just ask
for the manuscript?

Probably PTSD
from asking Jughead

if I could read
whatever he was working on,

and then
him biting my head off.

Anyway, we should get you guys
someplace safe.

What is so important
about this manuscript

that you would drug us
to get it?

It's, it's literal
gibberish.

After he used you
as fodder for The Outcasts,

I was afraid
he was going to write
about our time in New York,

and I really don't want
my parents or my friends
reading that.

[Betty] Go ahead.

-He probably won't even
remember writing it.
-If he ever turns up.

I'm sure you guys don't want
any more advice from me,

but just let
the trip take you

wherever it may go.

It should be
gentle and mellow.

Ride it out together.

Don't fight it, okay?

Just let the tunes
wash over you.

And thanks
for understanding.

Search her.

Show me
the blue opal first.

Okay.
Now, you can search me.

Isn't it fab?

It's from
Lacy's new fall line.

A dozen hidden pockets
for that businesswoman
on the go.

You better not be
wasting my time.

And that's 30 seconds,
you Neanderthal.

I take it
that's worth a lot.

[Veronica] It is.

Tomorrow,
I'll hand it over
to my buyer,

but, tonight,
this blue baby is all mine.

Thanks to you
and your A-team.

So, when the Governor
regains consciousness,

we'll be asking him
to give your uncle
a full pardon.

I won't say no
to that, Ronnie.

[Veronica exhales heavily]

So...

we're still feeling good
about our decision,

to hold off
until my divorce is final?

-Yeah.
-[sighs]

But I am torn.

Well, then, I better work
on making this divorce happen

as fast
as humanly possible.

I'll be seeing
you soon, Archie.

[Hiram] Thought you might
like an update.

Where is the palladium?

That doesn't really matter
as far as you're concerned,

because I'm not sharing.

Not now, not ever.

I have moved
heaven and earth to get here.

I've dedicated
years of my life
to this cause.

You have no idea.

So, as soon
as you're healthy enough,

I suggest
you go back to that

cushy little mansion of yours
and never return.

Or else...

Are we clear?

-Mmm.
-Yeah.

Morning.
Feeling better?

Yeah, actually.

A friend came by
with antibiotics.

He gave them to you
while you were out.

Hey, that guy...

-Did I--
-Kill him?

No, but you knocked him out.

Dragged him
to the edge of Sketch Alley

and dumped him
on the curb.

Someone will find him.

But you need
to get home.

Well, I can't yet.

Why is that?

Something happened to me
in New York.

I know it's something horrible,
I just can't remember what.

I keep getting
these delusions.
They're like images,

or memories maybe.

And I, uh...

I just know
I can't go home
until I figure it out.

Sounds like you know
where you're going then.

My name's not Henry, it's--

Jughead. I know.

-You knew?
-Well, not right away,

but I figured
you had your reasons.

I'm so sorry
for everything
that happened, though.

I wish I could have
done something.

Well, you were a kid.

There's nothing
you could have done.

You just focus
on yourself.

Find your way back from
wherever it is you've been.

Thanks, Doc.

I'll come back
and see you.

[Tabitha grunts]

[Betty] Oh, my gosh.

How many days
did we sleep through?

A week and a half
it feels like.

[Tabitha exhales heavily]

Oh, my gosh.

Did I give Jessica
Jughead's manuscript?

You did. Yeah.

And you played
his message,

-the message, for us.
-Oh, God.

It's okay, Betty.
It is a secret
amongst friends.

[both chuckle softly]

And, look, I know we haven't
found Jughead, but, um,

what you're doing,
looking for those
missing girls,

I want to help.

I appreciate that,
Tabitha.

[Tabitha sighs]

Speaking of messages.

It's Jughead.

Is he okay?
What's he saying?

[Jughead] Oh, God.
Where to start?

Look, I'm... I'm sorry.

I'm sorry
I haven't called.

I'm just sorry
for everything.

If you're blaming
yourself about me
wandering off, don't.

I was high
out of my mind.

I'm fine. I'm safe,
more or less.

I'm heading to New York.

There's something
I need to confront.

I'm not sure what,
but I know I wouldn't have
got this far without you.

When I get back to Riverdale,
maybe we can finish that dance.

-Okay.
