1
00:00:01,827 --> 00:00:04,482
[Jughead] The following
isn't an imaginary story.
2
00:00:04,526 --> 00:00:06,136
It happened.
3
00:00:06,180 --> 00:00:10,140
It starts with a corpse
on a lonely country road.
4
00:00:13,056 --> 00:00:14,666
While in the town
of Rivervale...
5
00:00:16,494 --> 00:00:20,063
Archie Andrews has somehow
just come back from the dead.
6
00:00:20,107 --> 00:00:21,195
[Betty] Arch?
7
00:00:22,544 --> 00:00:23,980
Sorry I woke you, Betty.
8
00:00:26,200 --> 00:00:27,375
No. It's okay.
9
00:00:29,072 --> 00:00:31,161
I was having a nightmare.
10
00:00:31,205 --> 00:00:32,554
What was it about?
11
00:00:39,082 --> 00:00:42,042
The whole town
was sacrificing you.
12
00:00:45,828 --> 00:00:47,351
[thunder rumbling]
13
00:00:47,395 --> 00:00:49,353
[Toni] Sorry I woke you, Fangs.
14
00:00:49,397 --> 00:00:50,920
Oh, I was just...
15
00:00:51,660 --> 00:00:53,444
having this crazy-ass dream.
16
00:00:54,228 --> 00:00:55,664
You were...
17
00:00:57,318 --> 00:00:59,102
drowning.
18
00:00:59,146 --> 00:01:01,931
And you came back as a ghost.
19
00:01:04,586 --> 00:01:06,414
Was I trying
to hurt Baby Anthony?
20
00:01:08,546 --> 00:01:12,507
I was having
the strangest dream, Reggie.
21
00:01:12,550 --> 00:01:15,075
Did I get dragged
to Hell in it?
22
00:01:15,118 --> 00:01:17,686
Nana, what are you doing
in my room?
23
00:01:17,729 --> 00:01:20,819
I had the most
frightful dream, child.
24
00:01:21,385 --> 00:01:23,126
Same. I, um...
25
00:01:23,170 --> 00:01:25,781
You and I swapped bodies
for some reason.
26
00:01:26,347 --> 00:01:28,349
[clock ticking]
27
00:01:45,975 --> 00:01:47,977
[exploding]
28
00:01:48,717 --> 00:01:50,284
[gasps]
29
00:01:51,589 --> 00:01:52,808
[sighs]
30
00:01:57,160 --> 00:01:58,118
[thuds]
31
00:02:14,003 --> 00:02:16,266
Morning. How'd you sleep?
32
00:02:16,310 --> 00:02:19,400
Uh... I'm not sure.
33
00:02:19,443 --> 00:02:21,619
Oh, were you up late writing?
34
00:02:21,663 --> 00:02:23,621
No, I woke up
in Archie's garage.
35
00:02:23,665 --> 00:02:25,449
I think I was sleepwalking.
36
00:02:25,493 --> 00:02:27,973
Oh, it's probably just nerves.
37
00:02:28,017 --> 00:02:29,671
[sighs] Yeah.
38
00:02:29,714 --> 00:02:31,803
Wait, what am I supposed
to be nervous about?
39
00:02:31,847 --> 00:02:36,634
Well, it is your first day back
at school teaching, isn't it?
40
00:02:36,678 --> 00:02:38,941
[Tabitha] You know, it's got
to be slightly nerve-racking.
41
00:02:38,984 --> 00:02:42,901
But don't worry,
it will be great. You will do great.
42
00:02:42,945 --> 00:02:45,339
["Don't You Forget
About Me" playing]
43
00:03:36,433 --> 00:03:37,695
[water running]
44
00:03:42,526 --> 00:03:43,875
Hey, Jughead!
45
00:03:45,399 --> 00:03:46,661
What's up?
46
00:03:53,668 --> 00:03:54,756
Ben?
47
00:03:56,105 --> 00:03:57,541
You're Ben Button?
48
00:03:57,585 --> 00:03:59,369
Of course I am.
Who else would I be?
49
00:03:59,413 --> 00:04:01,719
Ben, you died.
50
00:04:01,763 --> 00:04:04,896
You jumped out of a window
when you sacrifice yourself to the Gargoyle King.
51
00:04:04,940 --> 00:04:06,942
[imperceptible]
52
00:04:08,944 --> 00:04:11,120
No, you're thinking
of that dude from Stonewall Prep.
53
00:04:13,644 --> 00:04:15,733
Mr. Chipping? Yeah.
54
00:04:15,777 --> 00:04:17,387
No, no.
55
00:04:19,607 --> 00:04:20,912
You did it first.
56
00:04:20,956 --> 00:04:22,740
Maybe you hallucinated it?
57
00:04:22,784 --> 00:04:25,439
Yeah, maybe I'm just
hallucinating all this...
58
00:04:25,482 --> 00:04:30,270
FYI, daytime hallucinations
are a symptom of paranoid schizophrenia.
59
00:04:30,313 --> 00:04:32,837
But listen,
have an awesome day.
60
00:04:37,451 --> 00:04:38,974
[Archie] Jug, hey!
61
00:04:39,017 --> 00:04:41,106
You okay, bro?
You look like you're about to pass out.
62
00:04:41,150 --> 00:04:42,673
Just light-headed.
63
00:04:43,631 --> 00:04:45,154
What's going on?
64
00:04:45,197 --> 00:04:47,243
Not much.
Just updating everyone on the wedding plans.
65
00:04:47,287 --> 00:04:49,027
Wedding?
66
00:04:49,071 --> 00:04:50,551
Who's getting married?
67
00:04:52,379 --> 00:04:54,381
[Cheryl giggles] Awkward.
68
00:04:54,424 --> 00:04:57,384
Jug, Betty and I are getting
married this weekend, and you're my best man.
69
00:04:57,427 --> 00:04:59,124
[cell phone ringing]
70
00:04:59,168 --> 00:05:00,996
Impeccable timing, as always.
71
00:05:03,390 --> 00:05:04,913
Yes, Dr. Curdle?
72
00:05:04,956 --> 00:05:08,525
Miss Cooper, I have some
very distressing news.
73
00:05:08,569 --> 00:05:12,399
This afternoon,
I received a corpse.
74
00:05:14,009 --> 00:05:16,011
Jughead Jones's corpse.
75
00:05:16,054 --> 00:05:18,622
Is this more of your
gallows humor, Doctor?
76
00:05:18,666 --> 00:05:23,061
Because I'm looking
right at Jughead, who is very much alive.
77
00:05:23,714 --> 00:05:25,542
That's not possible.
78
00:05:25,586 --> 00:05:27,762
Look, if you're still upset
about not being invited to my wedding,
79
00:05:27,805 --> 00:05:29,198
get over yourself.
80
00:05:29,241 --> 00:05:31,069
Goodbye and please
stop harassing me.
81
00:05:32,723 --> 00:05:34,682
Hey, you okay?
82
00:05:34,725 --> 00:05:37,511
Yeah. Dr. Curdle's attempt
at humor, I guess.
83
00:05:37,554 --> 00:05:39,991
He claims that your body
is on his slab,
84
00:05:40,035 --> 00:05:43,343
which is obviously impossible
because I'm talking to you.
85
00:05:45,388 --> 00:05:47,869
-[door opens]
-[Dr. Curdle] Mr. Jones.
86
00:05:49,479 --> 00:05:51,002
It can't be.
87
00:05:51,046 --> 00:05:52,264
And yet it is.
88
00:05:54,658 --> 00:05:55,659
Well, may I?
89
00:06:07,062 --> 00:06:10,152
[ominous music playing]
90
00:06:11,153 --> 00:06:14,896
[glass breaking]
91
00:06:18,421 --> 00:06:21,032
It's a paradox. It must be.
92
00:06:21,076 --> 00:06:22,730
How did I...
How did he die?
93
00:06:22,773 --> 00:06:24,427
Asphyxiation.
94
00:06:24,471 --> 00:06:27,517
His wind pipe was crushed.
95
00:06:27,561 --> 00:06:28,692
He was strangled.
96
00:06:28,736 --> 00:06:30,433
And where was he found?
97
00:06:30,477 --> 00:06:32,087
The Lonely Highway.
98
00:06:33,088 --> 00:06:36,047
At the town limits.
By the sign.
99
00:06:36,744 --> 00:06:37,614
Face down.
100
00:06:39,529 --> 00:06:41,531
Where are his clothes,
his personal effects?
101
00:06:45,753 --> 00:06:49,409
Keep this body on ice
and under wraps, okay?
102
00:06:51,628 --> 00:06:53,282
The Lonely Highway, you said?
103
00:06:56,764 --> 00:06:58,766
[ominous music playing]
104
00:07:34,628 --> 00:07:36,934
[Jughead] It was impossible,
yet happening.
105
00:07:36,978 --> 00:07:40,634
Somehow, I had in my possession
a set of comic books that seemed to be about me
106
00:07:40,677 --> 00:07:41,809
and my friends.
107
00:07:41,852 --> 00:07:43,463
[imperceptible]
108
00:07:43,506 --> 00:07:45,290
Where had I gotten them?
109
00:07:45,334 --> 00:07:47,945
I couldn't remember.
110
00:07:47,989 --> 00:07:51,471
And why was my doppelganger
clutching one when he died?
111
00:07:51,514 --> 00:07:54,561
For that matter,
how did I even have a doppelganger?
112
00:07:54,604 --> 00:07:59,827
Hoping to find sane answers
for these impossible questions, I sat down and began to read...
113
00:07:59,870 --> 00:08:01,350
from the beginning.
114
00:08:03,439 --> 00:08:04,832
[woman screaming]
115
00:08:17,279 --> 00:08:18,628
[box thudding]
116
00:08:18,672 --> 00:08:20,412
How many more boxes
of comic books do you have?
117
00:08:20,456 --> 00:08:21,588
This is just a fraction.
118
00:08:21,631 --> 00:08:22,763
[Archie] I'll be honest
with you, Jug.
119
00:08:22,806 --> 00:08:24,678
I didn't know you were
that into comics.
120
00:08:24,721 --> 00:08:27,028
Well, what can I say, Archie?
I contain multitudes.
121
00:08:34,122 --> 00:08:36,124
[ominous music playing]
122
00:08:42,217 --> 00:08:45,176
Hey, how was
your first day back?
123
00:08:45,220 --> 00:08:46,395
[Jughead] Tabitha.
124
00:08:48,049 --> 00:08:51,139
I feel like
I'm living in a movie about parallel universes
125
00:08:51,182 --> 00:08:53,358
and I need your help
to figure this out.
126
00:08:53,402 --> 00:08:55,360
Okay.
127
00:08:55,404 --> 00:08:58,712
I've been having
these strange hallucinations.
128
00:08:58,755 --> 00:09:00,017
And these comics,
129
00:09:00,583 --> 00:09:01,628
they're about us.
130
00:09:02,542 --> 00:09:03,630
Our lives.
131
00:09:03,673 --> 00:09:06,676
The first 95
are called Riverdale,
132
00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:09,200
and they're set
in a town called Riverdale.
133
00:09:09,244 --> 00:09:12,856
And then there's
this explosion, and suddenly it's Rivervale.
134
00:09:12,900 --> 00:09:15,903
Okay, So you think Riverdale
135
00:09:15,946 --> 00:09:18,688
is a parallel universe
to Rivervale?
136
00:09:18,732 --> 00:09:20,560
No, no.
137
00:09:20,603 --> 00:09:23,954
I think Rivervale
is a parallel universe to Riverdale.
138
00:09:23,998 --> 00:09:25,260
It's like the comics.
139
00:09:25,303 --> 00:09:26,870
Riverdale comes first.
140
00:09:26,914 --> 00:09:29,569
And then there's Rivervale,
which is a lot like Riverdale
141
00:09:29,612 --> 00:09:31,701
except it's darker, nastier.
142
00:09:31,745 --> 00:09:36,053
It's, um, it's like a warped
reflection of Riverdale,
143
00:09:36,097 --> 00:09:38,752
and it just keeps
getting more twisted.
144
00:09:38,795 --> 00:09:42,494
So we live
in the parallel universe?
145
00:09:42,538 --> 00:09:43,800
Yeah.
146
00:09:43,844 --> 00:09:45,149
I know it's counterintuitive.
147
00:09:49,719 --> 00:09:50,720
Read them,
148
00:09:51,634 --> 00:09:52,940
then we'll talk.
149
00:09:54,115 --> 00:09:57,074
[Jughead narrating]
And Tabitha did.
150
00:09:57,118 --> 00:10:00,600
And her experience reading them
was very similar to my own.
151
00:10:00,643 --> 00:10:02,602
I remembered
recent events clearly,
152
00:10:02,645 --> 00:10:05,082
but going back further
in my memory was...
153
00:10:05,692 --> 00:10:06,736
hazier.
154
00:10:09,783 --> 00:10:12,481
Reading about events
in the Riverdale comic books made me recall them,
155
00:10:12,524 --> 00:10:14,352
but as Tabitha said...
156
00:10:15,963 --> 00:10:17,747
That's so strange.
157
00:10:17,791 --> 00:10:21,838
I mean, I remember
these things happening, but not in Riverdale.
158
00:10:21,882 --> 00:10:25,059
All this happened here
in Rivervale,
159
00:10:25,755 --> 00:10:26,626
didn't it?
160
00:10:28,584 --> 00:10:30,673
[Jughead narrating]
I went to Betty and Archie next.
161
00:10:30,717 --> 00:10:33,633
I wanted to ask them
about one page in particular.
162
00:10:35,069 --> 00:10:36,636
Do you remember
that explosion, Archie?
163
00:10:37,419 --> 00:10:38,289
No.
164
00:10:39,116 --> 00:10:40,944
Not at all.
165
00:10:40,988 --> 00:10:43,207
That event
is the one that ended the Riverdalecomics.
166
00:10:43,251 --> 00:10:45,557
The next issue
is when Rivervalestarted.
167
00:10:45,601 --> 00:10:48,430
I have a theory that
that explosion is what created
168
00:10:48,473 --> 00:10:51,476
this parallel universe
we currently find ourselves in.
169
00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:53,740
Wait. I kind of remember
something about this.
170
00:10:53,783 --> 00:10:58,222
Arch, didn't you have a dream
about an explosion like this one
171
00:10:58,266 --> 00:10:59,528
or am I making that up?
172
00:10:59,571 --> 00:11:02,009
[imperceptible]
173
00:11:02,052 --> 00:11:06,666
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But that was just a dream, Jug.
174
00:11:08,842 --> 00:11:11,148
[Jughead narrating]
I went to Veronica and Reggie next.
175
00:11:11,192 --> 00:11:13,150
This is impossible.
176
00:11:13,194 --> 00:11:14,935
What is it?
177
00:11:14,978 --> 00:11:18,112
These comics depict
my father terrorizing Riverdale for years,
178
00:11:18,155 --> 00:11:21,811
but my father died the night
before my quinceanera.
179
00:11:21,855 --> 00:11:24,727
I was so distraught.
We had to cancel the Jonas Brothers performance.
180
00:11:24,771 --> 00:11:27,338
That's a massive discrepancy.
181
00:11:27,382 --> 00:11:30,646
Because in Riverdale,
Hiram is the main villain.
182
00:11:30,690 --> 00:11:32,517
He's like Darth Vader.
183
00:11:32,561 --> 00:11:35,520
So if Rivervale
is the dark twin-verse then who is our Big Bad?
184
00:11:36,565 --> 00:11:37,827
How come I look different?
185
00:11:37,871 --> 00:11:39,220
What do you mean?
186
00:11:39,263 --> 00:11:41,701
I mean, I look like
two different people, look.
187
00:11:43,224 --> 00:11:45,269
Both devastatingly handsome.
188
00:11:45,313 --> 00:11:47,837
But other than that...
189
00:11:47,881 --> 00:11:50,187
That might be an anomaly.
190
00:11:50,231 --> 00:11:51,885
Have you shown these to Cheryl?
191
00:11:52,755 --> 00:11:55,018
[sighs]
192
00:11:55,062 --> 00:12:00,241
So, according
to this horrid pamphlet, Kevin Keller and Moose Mason
193
00:12:00,284 --> 00:12:02,678
discovered the corpse
of my dead brother
194
00:12:02,722 --> 00:12:05,376
whilst secretly
canoodling in the woods?
195
00:12:05,420 --> 00:12:06,856
Yeah.
196
00:12:06,900 --> 00:12:08,902
How's that sync up
with your memory of Jason's death?
197
00:12:08,945 --> 00:12:11,818
It doesn't,
you ghoul-lunatic.
198
00:12:11,861 --> 00:12:13,863
To begin with,
Jay Jay's not dead.
199
00:12:13,907 --> 00:12:16,213
What're you talking about?
That's impossible.
200
00:12:16,257 --> 00:12:18,607
I mean, your life was basically
defined by his death.
201
00:12:18,650 --> 00:12:23,394
I don't know what to tell you,
but I can assure you he is still very alive.
202
00:12:23,438 --> 00:12:25,396
No, he's dead.
You had a funeral for him,
203
00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:28,095
and then you talked
to his corpse for months.
204
00:12:28,138 --> 00:12:29,792
-[door opens]
-[footsteps approaching]
205
00:12:37,931 --> 00:12:40,107
Oh, hey, Jughead.
I didn't know you were here.
206
00:12:41,717 --> 00:12:43,327
You ready to go
hit the court, Cher-Cher?
207
00:12:43,371 --> 00:12:46,243
Yeah, I just need a minute.
Wait for me at the convertible?
208
00:12:46,287 --> 00:12:48,115
Sure. Don't take too long.
209
00:12:52,119 --> 00:12:56,645
Uh... We... We had
an in-memoriam page for him...
210
00:12:57,254 --> 00:12:58,473
in our yearbook.
211
00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:01,737
No, hobo, we didn't.
212
00:13:03,478 --> 00:13:05,610
Now, if you'll excuse me,
213
00:13:05,654 --> 00:13:09,658
my beloved and very much alive
twin brother and I are off to play doubles. Toodles.
214
00:13:09,701 --> 00:13:12,792
And feel free
to see yourself out.
215
00:13:12,835 --> 00:13:14,489
[Jughead narrating] And then,
I had one of my hunches.
216
00:13:14,532 --> 00:13:15,969
[school bell rings]
217
00:13:21,452 --> 00:13:23,367
I was right.
218
00:13:23,411 --> 00:13:26,109
Though Riverdale and Rivervale
diverged in ways minor and major,
219
00:13:26,153 --> 00:13:27,850
they were analogous.
220
00:13:27,894 --> 00:13:31,158
But I needed to understand
the rules of these worlds.
221
00:13:31,201 --> 00:13:33,943
I needed to
sharpen my knowledge of parallel universes.
222
00:13:33,987 --> 00:13:37,294
Damn, you're all
knotted up, babe.
223
00:13:37,338 --> 00:13:40,080
-What gives?
-Jughead.
224
00:13:40,123 --> 00:13:42,734
He triggered me
with all that talk about my father.
225
00:13:42,778 --> 00:13:45,737
-Yeah, Donnie Darko
is the worst. -[sighs]
226
00:13:45,781 --> 00:13:47,087
I got you, though.
227
00:13:47,130 --> 00:13:48,784
How can Reggie
make it all better?
228
00:13:51,178 --> 00:13:52,614
[knocking on door]
229
00:13:55,704 --> 00:13:57,706
Hey, babe. Miss me?
230
00:14:09,544 --> 00:14:14,027
I'm sorry, Mr. Jones,
but The Philosophy of Parallel Universes
231
00:14:14,070 --> 00:14:17,726
was checked out years ago
and never returned.
232
00:14:17,769 --> 00:14:19,162
What?
233
00:14:19,206 --> 00:14:20,381
Who checked it out?
234
00:14:23,036 --> 00:14:24,515
Dilton Doiley.
235
00:14:24,559 --> 00:14:26,866
[sighs] Great.
236
00:14:26,909 --> 00:14:28,389
Can't even ask him
because he's dead.
237
00:14:30,086 --> 00:14:32,741
Mr. Doiley is alive.
238
00:14:32,784 --> 00:14:37,224
In fact, he teaches physics
just down the hall.
239
00:14:42,751 --> 00:14:43,621
Dilton.
240
00:14:44,187 --> 00:14:45,841
Hey, Jughead.
241
00:14:45,885 --> 00:14:48,452
I heard you were
coming back to teach. We've missed you.
242
00:14:48,496 --> 00:14:50,063
[woman] Yes, we have.
243
00:14:52,065 --> 00:14:54,545
Ethel, what are you doing here?
244
00:14:54,589 --> 00:14:55,982
[Dilton] Ethel's
my teaching assistant.
245
00:14:56,852 --> 00:14:57,853
Oh, yeah?
246
00:14:59,333 --> 00:15:01,378
So, I shared
my wild theories with Dilton
247
00:15:01,422 --> 00:15:05,252
-who, miraculously, said...
-I believe you, Jughead.
248
00:15:05,295 --> 00:15:08,081
And I know a thing or two
about parallel universes.
249
00:15:08,124 --> 00:15:11,911
Okay. I think the explosion
at the end of issue 95 of Riverdale
250
00:15:11,954 --> 00:15:14,826
is what created Rivervale,
like the Big Bang.
251
00:15:14,870 --> 00:15:17,394
-It's as valid as any theory.
-Why do you think
252
00:15:17,438 --> 00:15:20,571
the events that
happened in Riverdaleare playing out differently here?
253
00:15:20,615 --> 00:15:24,880
In my research,
parallel universes are exact copies
254
00:15:24,924 --> 00:15:27,100
or mirror images
of one another.
255
00:15:27,143 --> 00:15:29,406
What you're
describing is...
256
00:15:29,450 --> 00:15:33,106
-something in between.
-Like a warping, right?
257
00:15:33,758 --> 00:15:34,629
And...
258
00:15:35,456 --> 00:15:37,110
I don't know, I have this...
259
00:15:38,285 --> 00:15:41,027
impending sense of doom,
260
00:15:41,070 --> 00:15:43,159
like something bad
is going to happen.
261
00:15:44,421 --> 00:15:46,467
-What do we do about it?
-Do?
262
00:15:47,294 --> 00:15:49,296
We do nothing.
263
00:15:49,339 --> 00:15:52,038
At any given moment,
there are an infinite number
264
00:15:52,081 --> 00:15:55,606
of parallel universes
in peaceful coexistence with one another.
265
00:15:55,650 --> 00:15:57,782
Just forget it, Jughead.
266
00:15:57,826 --> 00:16:00,785
-Live your life.
-Dude, I'm not just gonna drop it.
267
00:16:00,829 --> 00:16:04,267
I became aware for a reason,
conscious of the two universes.
268
00:16:04,311 --> 00:16:07,096
Why? What about
the other Jughead?
269
00:16:07,140 --> 00:16:08,445
Isn't that a paradox?
270
00:16:08,489 --> 00:16:11,013
It sounds more like
an anomaly than a paradox.
271
00:16:11,057 --> 00:16:12,623
Dilton, he was
murdered by someone.
272
00:16:12,667 --> 00:16:15,887
Then, have Sheriff Keller
investigate, if you want.
273
00:16:15,931 --> 00:16:19,761
My advice, stop trying
to figure out the secrets to the universe.
274
00:16:21,067 --> 00:16:22,938
You have
a good life here, Jughead.
275
00:16:24,853 --> 00:16:25,723
Go with the flow.
276
00:16:29,205 --> 00:16:31,686
So, you're saying he's me?
277
00:16:32,556 --> 00:16:35,255
No, bro, you're me.
278
00:16:35,298 --> 00:16:37,953
-There is no you, all right?
-[Veronica] There is, though.
279
00:16:37,997 --> 00:16:39,868
I mean, based on
Jughead's earlier visit,
280
00:16:39,911 --> 00:16:44,612
there are
two parallel universes, and, apparently, two Reggies.
281
00:16:44,655 --> 00:16:47,006
But I came first.
I'm Reggie Prime, baby.
282
00:16:47,049 --> 00:16:49,791
Yeah, but you've been
in, like, three issues.
283
00:16:49,834 --> 00:16:52,011
-I've been in dozens.
-[Veronica] Guys...
284
00:16:52,054 --> 00:16:56,841
It doesn't matter
who came first or who has been in more issues.
285
00:16:56,885 --> 00:17:00,019
You're both here now
and whatever else,
286
00:17:00,062 --> 00:17:01,672
we obviously
can't have the two of you
287
00:17:01,716 --> 00:17:04,675
running around town
freaking everybody the hell out.
288
00:17:04,719 --> 00:17:09,854
So, you're both staying here
incommunicado until further notice.
289
00:17:09,898 --> 00:17:11,204
I have to get
the casino ready
290
00:17:11,247 --> 00:17:13,162
for the bachelor
and bachelorette parties tonight.
291
00:17:13,206 --> 00:17:16,035
-What? No. I'm coming.
-Yeah, I want to go.
292
00:17:16,078 --> 00:17:18,428
It's Archie's bachelor party,
and I can't miss it.
293
00:17:18,472 --> 00:17:21,040
I would much rather crash
the bachelorette party.
294
00:17:22,563 --> 00:17:25,000
-[people screaming
and cheering] -[hip hop music playing]
295
00:17:44,976 --> 00:17:45,977
Yeah!
296
00:17:50,895 --> 00:17:53,246
-How're you hanging in there?
-Yeah, good.
297
00:17:56,162 --> 00:17:58,773
You know, I'm not going to lie,
I've been thinking about my dad a lot recently.
298
00:17:58,816 --> 00:18:01,080
He would've loved this.
299
00:18:01,123 --> 00:18:04,213
Me marrying Betty? Come on.
He would have been beside himself. [chuckles]
300
00:18:07,347 --> 00:18:09,088
This is stupid, but I keep...
301
00:18:10,437 --> 00:18:13,004
I keep imagining...
302
00:18:13,048 --> 00:18:15,268
that, somehow,
he'll show up for the wedding...
303
00:18:17,618 --> 00:18:20,099
He'd be standing
next to us, smiling.
304
00:18:20,142 --> 00:18:21,970
[Jughead] It's not
stupid, Arch.
305
00:18:26,627 --> 00:18:28,629
[mellow music playing]
306
00:18:32,067 --> 00:18:37,159
Come on, the night
is young. Let's dance.
307
00:18:37,203 --> 00:18:38,639
Who wants
to dance with me?
308
00:18:44,601 --> 00:18:47,778
Excellent. Thank you,
other Reggie.
309
00:18:47,822 --> 00:18:50,955
-I knew I could count on you.
-Mm-hmm.
310
00:18:50,999 --> 00:18:54,176
Come on, Reginald.
Don't be shy.
311
00:18:57,179 --> 00:19:01,401
You know, we could have
a sweet thing here, the three of us.
312
00:19:02,576 --> 00:19:04,099
Nobody has to know.
313
00:19:08,408 --> 00:19:09,539
Sorry, Ronnie.
314
00:19:13,500 --> 00:19:14,979
I'm not used to sharing.
315
00:19:15,937 --> 00:19:18,069
Yeah, well, me neither.
316
00:19:20,333 --> 00:19:21,986
You know what, guys?
317
00:19:22,030 --> 00:19:25,207
The irony is, Veronica Lodge
is more woman
318
00:19:25,251 --> 00:19:27,688
than either of you
can handle alone.
319
00:19:39,700 --> 00:19:40,744
Thank you.
320
00:19:40,788 --> 00:19:42,093
Oh-ho-ho!
321
00:19:44,270 --> 00:19:46,533
Do you guys remember
when we were in high school,
322
00:19:46,576 --> 00:19:50,798
we'd party too hard
and be hung over, and we could just skip class?
323
00:19:50,841 --> 00:19:52,626
Yeah, the good old days.
324
00:19:52,669 --> 00:19:56,195
[chuckles]
Being a teacher sucks.
325
00:19:56,238 --> 00:19:59,807
-[Cheryl] Oh, my God.
-Babe, what's wrong?
326
00:19:59,850 --> 00:20:01,200
My brother has been kidnapped
327
00:20:01,243 --> 00:20:03,202
by some lunatic calling himself
the Black Hood.
328
00:20:07,554 --> 00:20:09,164
What? Who's the Black Hood?
329
00:20:09,208 --> 00:20:10,644
How the hell
should I know, Cousin?
330
00:20:10,687 --> 00:20:12,472
But he's demanding
some insane ransom and saying,
331
00:20:12,515 --> 00:20:14,343
if I don't pay,
he's going to kill my brother.
332
00:20:16,258 --> 00:20:19,348
Listen, Archie, I know
this is gonna sound nuts.
333
00:20:19,392 --> 00:20:21,916
I think I know where
Jason Blossom is being held.
334
00:20:21,959 --> 00:20:24,048
Is this another one of those
parallel universe things?
335
00:20:24,092 --> 00:20:26,877
Well, yeah.
But if the events of Riverdale
336
00:20:26,921 --> 00:20:29,489
are repeating here
in Rivervale, then...
337
00:20:29,532 --> 00:20:31,404
I think Jason Blossom
is being held at the Whyte Wyrm.
338
00:20:33,580 --> 00:20:34,668
What do you want to do?
339
00:20:34,711 --> 00:20:37,192
Let's get Sheriff Keller
to back us up...
340
00:20:37,236 --> 00:20:38,237
and let's go save him.
341
00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:45,113
Jason, Jason...
342
00:20:46,941 --> 00:20:48,508
What the hell is going on here?
343
00:20:59,823 --> 00:21:01,956
[Jughead narrating]
It occurred to me that whoever was under the mask
344
00:21:01,999 --> 00:21:04,785
was most likely the same person
who killed my double.
345
00:21:06,743 --> 00:21:09,224
Rivervale's big bad.
346
00:21:09,268 --> 00:21:11,444
Not Hiram Lodge, but...
347
00:21:12,662 --> 00:21:13,924
Clifford Blossom.
348
00:21:22,977 --> 00:21:25,414
[men grunting]
349
00:21:27,634 --> 00:21:30,419
Excuse me.
Are you kidding?
350
00:21:31,812 --> 00:21:33,596
Why aren't you dressed
for the rehearsal dinner?
351
00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:35,859
-Either of you?
-[both] He started it.
352
00:21:35,903 --> 00:21:38,079
I don't care who started it.
353
00:21:38,122 --> 00:21:43,345
I am so done with this macho,
toxic, competitive bull crap.
354
00:21:43,389 --> 00:21:47,131
We're all adults here.
So, we should be able to act like we're adults.
355
00:21:47,175 --> 00:21:49,786
But until that happens,
you're both grounded.
356
00:21:49,830 --> 00:21:51,919
-What?
-No fair!
357
00:21:51,962 --> 00:21:55,444
You two need to work out
whatever it is you need to work out in order to co-exist.
358
00:21:55,488 --> 00:21:57,925
You're out of the Pembrooke
and out of my life.
359
00:22:00,928 --> 00:22:02,016
[door opens]
360
00:22:02,059 --> 00:22:04,148
-[both] Idiot.
-[door closes]
361
00:22:04,192 --> 00:22:07,456
-[chattering indistinctly]
-[glass clinking]
362
00:22:07,500 --> 00:22:14,333
I want to thank everyone
for being here on this very special occasion.
363
00:22:14,376 --> 00:22:19,120
It's not every night
that a mom gets to host the rehearsal dinner
364
00:22:19,163 --> 00:22:23,646
for her daughter's wedding
to the finest young gentleman
365
00:22:23,690 --> 00:22:28,042
in this town, Archie Andrews.
366
00:22:28,085 --> 00:22:31,175
Now, I think my husband, Hal,
would like to say a few words.
367
00:22:31,219 --> 00:22:32,351
Just a few, though.
368
00:22:32,394 --> 00:22:33,830
[both chuckle]
369
00:22:33,874 --> 00:22:35,702
Thank you, Alice. Uh...
370
00:22:37,051 --> 00:22:40,141
I remember
when Betty was born, she...
371
00:22:40,184 --> 00:22:41,011
[door opens]
372
00:22:43,405 --> 00:22:47,278
Toni? What is it?
What's happened?
373
00:22:47,322 --> 00:22:49,150
[Jughead narrating] I knew it
even before Toni said it.
374
00:22:49,716 --> 00:22:50,804
She's dead.
375
00:22:53,894 --> 00:22:54,982
Who's dead, Toni?
376
00:22:55,548 --> 00:22:56,549
Cheryl.
377
00:22:57,419 --> 00:22:58,551
She was strangled.
378
00:23:00,944 --> 00:23:04,208
[Jughead] Betty and I went
to Thornhill straight from the rehearsal dinner.
379
00:23:04,252 --> 00:23:06,254
The scene there
was a gruesome one.
380
00:23:06,297 --> 00:23:09,649
The rules of this universe
were making less sense every day.
381
00:23:09,692 --> 00:23:13,043
It was as if Riverdale's
reality was trying to reassert itself on Rivervale,
382
00:23:13,087 --> 00:23:15,219
and innocent people
like Cheryl were dying.
383
00:23:15,263 --> 00:23:17,265
How could I
take Dilton's advice to do nothing?
384
00:23:17,918 --> 00:23:19,920
Wait a minute.
385
00:23:19,963 --> 00:23:23,532
Dilton. I've been wondering
who this universe's big bad is.
386
00:23:23,576 --> 00:23:27,884
Could it be meek Dilton Doiley
hiding in plain sight?
387
00:23:27,928 --> 00:23:31,061
Well, considering you're here
in the middle of the night, I think it's time we talk.
388
00:23:31,105 --> 00:23:33,194
-A little busy
right now, Jughead. -No.
389
00:23:33,237 --> 00:23:35,457
Dilton, you asked me
to sit down and do nothing.
390
00:23:35,501 --> 00:23:37,285
But it's happening again.
391
00:23:37,328 --> 00:23:39,766
The same events
that took place in Riverdale are happening here!
392
00:23:40,941 --> 00:23:41,942
People are dying.
393
00:23:41,985 --> 00:23:44,074
Yes. Isn't it glorious?
394
00:23:44,118 --> 00:23:45,728
-What?
-[grunts]
395
00:23:47,948 --> 00:23:50,777
-Oh, you know
what's going on, don't you? -He does.
396
00:23:53,127 --> 00:23:54,345
[Dilton] I'm sorry, Jughead.
397
00:23:54,389 --> 00:23:56,043
But I had to see
what would happen
398
00:23:56,086 --> 00:23:58,001
if the universes
remained conjoined.
399
00:23:58,045 --> 00:24:00,526
And now, we know.
400
00:24:00,569 --> 00:24:02,571
They've become
dangerously unstable,
401
00:24:02,615 --> 00:24:05,574
and eventually, they're both
going to implode.
402
00:24:05,618 --> 00:24:06,923
Why are they
going to implode?
403
00:24:06,967 --> 00:24:08,577
[Ethel] Riverdale
and Rivervale,
404
00:24:08,621 --> 00:24:10,274
the two universes
are expanding,
405
00:24:10,318 --> 00:24:11,624
as universes do.
406
00:24:11,667 --> 00:24:13,582
But they're still linked
at the point of creation.
407
00:24:13,626 --> 00:24:15,932
So, what? They're bleeding
into each other?
408
00:24:15,976 --> 00:24:17,934
They're just going to expand
into each other?
409
00:24:17,978 --> 00:24:20,241
And I, Dilton Doiley,
410
00:24:20,284 --> 00:24:22,635
will have a front row seat
to their destruction.
411
00:24:22,678 --> 00:24:24,941
I'll be the first scientist
to document
412
00:24:24,985 --> 00:24:28,336
a prime and pocket universe
collapsing in real time.
413
00:24:30,338 --> 00:24:31,992
How do we stop it?
414
00:24:32,035 --> 00:24:34,473
We don't. We can't.
415
00:24:35,691 --> 00:24:36,953
It's too late.
416
00:24:36,997 --> 00:24:38,564
[laughs]
417
00:24:38,607 --> 00:24:40,914
[coughing]
418
00:24:40,957 --> 00:24:42,829
[choking]
419
00:24:48,182 --> 00:24:50,053
[gasping]
420
00:24:54,318 --> 00:24:55,406
[Jughead] Ethel?
421
00:24:55,450 --> 00:24:57,539
I snuck poison
into his grape juice.
422
00:24:57,583 --> 00:24:59,280
Why?
423
00:24:59,323 --> 00:25:01,151
Because he was willing
to let everyone in two universes die,
424
00:25:01,195 --> 00:25:03,066
just so he could study
425
00:25:03,110 --> 00:25:05,547
what happens when
the twin-versus implode.
426
00:25:05,591 --> 00:25:07,767
Ethel, do you know how to save
these universes?
427
00:25:09,943 --> 00:25:12,206
Of course I do, Jughead.
428
00:25:12,249 --> 00:25:15,731
Well, one of them,
the prime one,
429
00:25:17,864 --> 00:25:19,300
I can save Riverdale.
430
00:25:21,302 --> 00:25:22,564
Reggie?
431
00:25:26,220 --> 00:25:27,351
Reggies?
432
00:25:34,663 --> 00:25:35,664
[gasps]
433
00:25:37,710 --> 00:25:40,843
You dim, egotistical,
434
00:25:40,887 --> 00:25:43,019
narcissistic morons.
435
00:25:48,764 --> 00:25:51,593
When I said "Settle this,"
I didn't mean with a duel.
436
00:25:58,426 --> 00:26:00,471
That's the moment in time
the pocket universe,
437
00:26:00,515 --> 00:26:02,430
this universe, was created.
438
00:26:02,473 --> 00:26:04,475
If we could recreate
the circumstances of its birth,
439
00:26:04,519 --> 00:26:05,868
then theoretically,
the same energy
440
00:26:05,912 --> 00:26:09,089
that conjoined them
could also separate them.
441
00:26:09,132 --> 00:26:11,570
We just need to figure out
what that moment was and where?
442
00:26:11,613 --> 00:26:13,615
I think I know.
443
00:26:13,659 --> 00:26:15,878
Archie's bedroom,
when that bomb exploded.
444
00:26:15,922 --> 00:26:18,620
No, I think it would have to be
a more significant event than just an explosion.
445
00:26:18,664 --> 00:26:19,926
That might not
sound like a lot,
446
00:26:19,969 --> 00:26:22,929
but it was a confluence
of good and evil.
447
00:26:22,972 --> 00:26:25,496
Archie and Betty's love,
Hiram's, hate.
448
00:26:25,540 --> 00:26:27,629
There was creation.
I was in the garage, writing,
449
00:26:27,673 --> 00:26:29,718
and destruction,
the explosion.
450
00:26:29,762 --> 00:26:32,199
There was science.
Archie had this...
451
00:26:32,242 --> 00:26:33,592
chunk of palladium
on his desk,
452
00:26:33,635 --> 00:26:34,897
and magic.
453
00:26:34,941 --> 00:26:36,769
Cheryl's curse on the town.
454
00:26:36,812 --> 00:26:38,771
That might definitely do it.
455
00:26:38,814 --> 00:26:42,078
Okay, so by your logic,
456
00:26:42,122 --> 00:26:45,342
we just have to accurately
recreate the events in Archie's bedroom.
457
00:26:46,300 --> 00:26:48,084
As closely as we can.
458
00:26:48,128 --> 00:26:50,783
And the universes
should separate, yes,
459
00:26:50,826 --> 00:26:52,262
The prime universe
will stabilize,
460
00:26:52,306 --> 00:26:53,916
and our universe will...
461
00:26:56,136 --> 00:26:57,180
Cease to exist.
462
00:27:00,619 --> 00:27:02,708
Everyone in Rivervale
will die?
463
00:27:02,751 --> 00:27:07,408
Jughead, Rivervale
wasn't ever meant to exist.
464
00:27:08,844 --> 00:27:11,978
You, me, all of us,
our town, we're just...
465
00:27:13,719 --> 00:27:16,156
Aberrations.
466
00:27:16,199 --> 00:27:21,640
One, big, messy anomaly
that will simply stop being.
467
00:27:23,337 --> 00:27:24,730
And if we do nothing...
468
00:27:26,340 --> 00:27:27,907
both universes will collapse?
469
00:27:29,691 --> 00:27:30,736
Billions will die?
470
00:27:37,003 --> 00:27:39,658
So we just need to detonate
a bomb under Archie's bed.
471
00:27:39,701 --> 00:27:41,790
-With Betty and Archie in it.
-What?
472
00:27:41,834 --> 00:27:45,272
No, no, no.
473
00:27:45,315 --> 00:27:47,796
We're not blowing up
Archie and Betty.
474
00:27:47,840 --> 00:27:50,103
They're about to get married.
475
00:27:50,146 --> 00:27:53,759
We have to recreate
the circumstances as closely as possible.
476
00:27:53,802 --> 00:27:55,891
I mean, if not
Betty and Archie, then maybe it could be...
477
00:27:59,199 --> 00:28:01,331
Me and Veronica.
478
00:28:01,375 --> 00:28:03,725
What are we, if we're not
counterparts to Archie and Betty?
479
00:28:05,118 --> 00:28:06,032
Ethel...
480
00:28:06,641 --> 00:28:07,642
you're brilliant.
481
00:28:10,689 --> 00:28:12,691
[Veronica] So if,
what you're saying is true,
482
00:28:13,256 --> 00:28:15,694
and we do this...
483
00:28:17,217 --> 00:28:19,219
we won't die?
484
00:28:20,568 --> 00:28:21,700
No.
485
00:28:21,743 --> 00:28:26,226
We'll... cease
to exist painlessly.
486
00:28:26,269 --> 00:28:27,880
All so Riverdale,
487
00:28:29,142 --> 00:28:33,015
a universe we don't even know
for sure exists,
488
00:28:33,059 --> 00:28:36,366
-can be spared.
-It does exist, Veronica.
489
00:28:36,410 --> 00:28:40,762
It's a universe
of high school dances,
490
00:28:40,806 --> 00:28:44,200
and masked serial killers,
of football, and milkshakes
491
00:28:44,244 --> 00:28:45,854
and musicals, and cults,
492
00:28:45,898 --> 00:28:48,727
diabolical board games
and murderous nuns.
493
00:28:49,771 --> 00:28:51,077
[sighs]
494
00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:53,209
It's a world where
billions of people will die
495
00:28:53,253 --> 00:28:55,603
if we don't split
the universes.
496
00:29:01,130 --> 00:29:02,044
All right.
497
00:29:03,742 --> 00:29:05,308
Let's do it.
498
00:29:05,352 --> 00:29:09,182
Let's make out
to save the universe.
499
00:29:09,225 --> 00:29:10,183
One thing.
500
00:29:11,358 --> 00:29:13,839
Can we do it
during the wedding?
501
00:29:13,882 --> 00:29:15,928
Because I'm not really
in the mood?
502
00:29:15,971 --> 00:29:17,973
Yeah, I hear that. Same.
503
00:29:19,496 --> 00:29:21,716
Here's to Vughead
becoming cannon.
504
00:29:29,550 --> 00:29:31,421
[Jughead narrating]
Is it possible to be nostalgic for a life
505
00:29:31,465 --> 00:29:32,858
that you're not
even sure is yours.
506
00:29:34,685 --> 00:29:36,296
Flipping through the yearbook,
I remembered things
507
00:29:36,339 --> 00:29:38,341
as if I'd seen them
in a movie of my life.
508
00:29:38,385 --> 00:29:39,299
[door opening]
509
00:29:40,474 --> 00:29:41,823
All right, Lodge.
510
00:29:41,867 --> 00:29:43,129
We doing this or what?
511
00:29:47,568 --> 00:29:51,572
Archie, what are you
doing here?
512
00:29:51,615 --> 00:29:53,792
You know, when you didn't
show up to my wedding,
513
00:29:53,835 --> 00:29:56,229
I knew, you'd be doing
something stupid
514
00:29:56,272 --> 00:29:58,797
like trying to separate
the two universes.
515
00:29:58,840 --> 00:30:00,799
Well, I can't let you do that.
516
00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:03,279
Before you do anything final,
517
00:30:03,323 --> 00:30:04,933
know that Veronica
is on her way here right now.
518
00:30:04,977 --> 00:30:06,500
No, Jug, she's not.
519
00:30:07,980 --> 00:30:08,981
Ronnie's dead.
520
00:30:10,678 --> 00:30:11,853
-I killed her.
-[choking]
521
00:30:15,683 --> 00:30:16,684
What?
522
00:30:17,685 --> 00:30:19,078
Why would you do that?
523
00:30:19,121 --> 00:30:22,516
Because you told her the truth
about the universe,
524
00:30:22,559 --> 00:30:23,822
and she was gonna
help you destroy it.
525
00:30:26,128 --> 00:30:27,129
You killed Cheryl...
526
00:30:29,523 --> 00:30:30,785
and the other Jughead?
527
00:30:33,875 --> 00:30:35,834
Not Hiram or Clifford or Hal,
528
00:30:35,877 --> 00:30:36,965
you're Rivervale's Big Bad--
529
00:30:37,009 --> 00:30:38,924
I'm not a villain, Jug.
530
00:30:40,708 --> 00:30:41,840
No one stays dead here.
531
00:30:43,842 --> 00:30:45,800
Cheryl and Ronnie.
They'll be back.
532
00:30:45,844 --> 00:30:47,454
All the people we've lost...
533
00:30:50,196 --> 00:30:52,938
Everyone comes back to life
in this universe.
534
00:30:55,723 --> 00:30:57,029
Everyone comes back.
535
00:30:58,944 --> 00:31:00,032
Is this about your dad?
536
00:31:00,075 --> 00:31:01,381
Don't you get it?
537
00:31:04,340 --> 00:31:05,820
He's coming home.
538
00:31:05,864 --> 00:31:07,039
He has to.
539
00:31:08,562 --> 00:31:09,868
He would never
miss my wedding.
540
00:31:09,911 --> 00:31:11,695
Especially not to Betty,
he loved Betty.
541
00:31:11,739 --> 00:31:14,350
Archie, how do you
know all this?
542
00:31:14,394 --> 00:31:16,048
The rules of this world?
543
00:31:16,091 --> 00:31:17,658
How did you know
to kill the other Jughead
544
00:31:17,701 --> 00:31:18,964
before I even showed
you the comics?
545
00:31:19,007 --> 00:31:21,880
Bro, I know all the secrets
of this universe.
546
00:31:23,751 --> 00:31:27,146
I was at ground zero
for the birth of Rivervale.
547
00:31:27,189 --> 00:31:30,845
The moment of creation
and destruction.
548
00:31:30,889 --> 00:31:32,716
The threshold of revelation.
549
00:31:33,935 --> 00:31:36,024
I saw everything.
550
00:31:36,068 --> 00:31:39,767
The other Jughead, the dead,
coming back to life,
551
00:31:40,942 --> 00:31:42,683
the distortions.
552
00:31:42,726 --> 00:31:45,860
It's not a copy or a mistake
553
00:31:45,904 --> 00:31:47,166
like you think it is.
554
00:31:47,209 --> 00:31:49,690
It's another chance for me
to be with my dad.
555
00:31:50,604 --> 00:31:51,648
Archie...
556
00:31:51,692 --> 00:31:53,172
If we don't separate
these universes,
557
00:31:53,215 --> 00:31:56,740
and soon, everyone's
going to die in both of them.
558
00:31:56,784 --> 00:31:58,568
And you don't know
that Fred can come back.
559
00:31:58,612 --> 00:32:03,225
-Not everybody does--
-If there's a 0.001% chance
560
00:32:03,269 --> 00:32:04,357
that he will,
561
00:32:05,271 --> 00:32:07,447
I want to be here
waiting for him.
562
00:32:10,276 --> 00:32:11,755
I'm sorry.
563
00:32:11,799 --> 00:32:13,627
[both grunting]
564
00:32:23,289 --> 00:32:24,507
[coughing]
565
00:32:28,468 --> 00:32:29,425
[gasping]
566
00:32:29,469 --> 00:32:30,644
[gun fires]
567
00:32:31,471 --> 00:32:32,951
[Jughead gasping]
568
00:32:37,433 --> 00:32:39,305
[panting] Hey.
569
00:32:41,829 --> 00:32:44,745
Never leave a Cooper woman
standing at the altar.
570
00:32:44,788 --> 00:32:47,226
Hey. Hey, are you okay?
571
00:32:47,269 --> 00:32:49,271
How did you know
to come here?
572
00:32:49,315 --> 00:32:50,969
When Archie stood me up
at the altar,
573
00:32:51,012 --> 00:32:53,058
something clicked.
574
00:32:53,101 --> 00:32:55,408
I don't know, like,
my life flashed before my eyes.
575
00:32:55,451 --> 00:32:56,757
I knew to come here.
576
00:32:56,800 --> 00:32:58,454
You also know that
Rivervale should not exist.
577
00:33:00,804 --> 00:33:03,198
That bomb needs
to be detonated.
578
00:33:03,242 --> 00:33:04,504
By us?
579
00:33:06,245 --> 00:33:07,159
If you're willing.
580
00:33:08,899 --> 00:33:10,336
[clock ticking]
581
00:33:12,077 --> 00:33:13,513
What we do now.
We just wait?
582
00:33:13,556 --> 00:33:15,645
No. We need to recreate
the moments before
583
00:33:15,689 --> 00:33:17,691
the original explosions
closely as possible.
584
00:33:17,734 --> 00:33:19,475
Oh, well, Archie and I...
585
00:33:19,519 --> 00:33:22,130
I know, I read it
in the comics.
586
00:33:36,710 --> 00:33:37,885
[knocking at door]
587
00:33:38,494 --> 00:33:40,018
Hey. Whoa.
588
00:33:40,061 --> 00:33:41,671
Hey, sorry. Look...
589
00:33:41,715 --> 00:33:43,543
There may be a way
to separate the two universes
590
00:33:43,586 --> 00:33:44,848
without erasing this one.
591
00:33:44,892 --> 00:33:46,850
Okay?
592
00:33:46,894 --> 00:33:48,287
Well, we should probably
stop the bomb. Betty, could you please disarm it?
593
00:33:48,330 --> 00:33:49,505
What I'm... What?
594
00:33:49,549 --> 00:33:50,985
I don't know
how to disarm a bomb.
595
00:33:51,029 --> 00:33:53,031
Yes, you do.
You went to the FBI Academy.
596
00:33:53,074 --> 00:33:54,293
You've actually
done it before,
597
00:33:54,336 --> 00:33:55,859
when Polly had a bomb
strapped to her body
598
00:33:57,339 --> 00:33:58,732
[timer ticking]
599
00:34:00,734 --> 00:34:02,518
You came back
from the dead too.
600
00:34:02,562 --> 00:34:03,867
Where were you
601
00:34:03,911 --> 00:34:07,088
after Archie strangled you?
602
00:34:07,132 --> 00:34:10,004
The great Pop's Chock'lit
Shoppe in the sky.
603
00:34:11,092 --> 00:34:12,528
[bell jingles]
604
00:34:12,572 --> 00:34:14,574
[50's rock and roll
music playing]
605
00:34:18,926 --> 00:34:20,319
From the second I walked
through that door,
606
00:34:20,362 --> 00:34:22,712
I immediately felt at peace.
607
00:34:22,756 --> 00:34:25,019
The sweet Hereafter Pops
is a lot like ours,
608
00:34:25,063 --> 00:34:26,977
except it also sells comics.
609
00:34:29,067 --> 00:34:32,157
It's like one of those
old fashioned soda shops.
610
00:34:32,200 --> 00:34:34,420
Everything about this Pops
is old-fashioned.
611
00:34:34,463 --> 00:34:36,900
Grab something to read,
and have a seat.
612
00:34:36,944 --> 00:34:39,773
It's all you can eat.
On the house, of course.
613
00:34:47,215 --> 00:34:48,434
And that's when I found it.
614
00:34:49,391 --> 00:34:50,871
A special comic book
615
00:34:50,914 --> 00:34:54,744
that came in between
issues 95 and 96,
616
00:34:54,788 --> 00:34:58,096
and it bridged the gap between
Riverdale and Rivervale.
617
00:34:58,139 --> 00:35:01,011
It told the tale of two
linked universes
618
00:35:01,055 --> 00:35:02,796
and how,
if that second universe
619
00:35:02,839 --> 00:35:05,581
were to become separated
from the first, it would die.
620
00:35:05,625 --> 00:35:08,367
Unless a new power source
could be found and maintained.
621
00:35:12,893 --> 00:35:14,851
I was looking around
at all these comic books.
622
00:35:14,895 --> 00:35:16,592
All these wonderful stories
623
00:35:16,636 --> 00:35:18,681
made me realize what that
power source could be.
624
00:35:21,206 --> 00:35:23,033
And so I resurrected,
and I came right here.
625
00:35:23,077 --> 00:35:24,470
What is the other
power source
626
00:35:24,513 --> 00:35:26,124
that's going to fuel Rivervale
after it separates?
627
00:35:30,476 --> 00:35:31,520
Imagination.
628
00:35:33,043 --> 00:35:34,610
It's limitless
and all powerful,
629
00:35:34,654 --> 00:35:36,786
it's boundless
and ever replenishing.
630
00:35:36,830 --> 00:35:39,180
There's no fuel more potent,
631
00:35:39,224 --> 00:35:40,790
no generator
more awesome.
632
00:35:40,834 --> 00:35:42,270
I don't understand.
633
00:35:42,314 --> 00:35:43,967
I think I do.
634
00:35:44,011 --> 00:35:46,448
The explosion
is destruction, right?
635
00:35:46,492 --> 00:35:48,494
What's the opposite
of destruction?
636
00:35:48,537 --> 00:35:51,105
-Creation.
-Exactly.
637
00:35:51,149 --> 00:35:52,237
I mean, it's all the comics,
638
00:35:52,280 --> 00:35:54,326
how Jughead here
is gonna save Rivervale
639
00:35:54,369 --> 00:35:55,849
by becoming a living battery.
640
00:35:56,676 --> 00:36:00,375
-A, um--
-Story generator?
641
00:36:00,419 --> 00:36:04,162
That powers Rivervale
by writing the stories that fuel the universe?
642
00:36:04,205 --> 00:36:06,207
So it doesn't have to keep
leeching off of Riverdale.
643
00:36:07,556 --> 00:36:11,473
It's an over-simplification,
but, yeah, you write,
644
00:36:11,517 --> 00:36:12,735
and Rivervale lives.
645
00:36:14,084 --> 00:36:16,652
One thing though,
once you start producing,
646
00:36:16,696 --> 00:36:18,524
you will have to be
in complete isolation.
647
00:36:21,266 --> 00:36:24,573
I mean, think about if someone
saw two Jugheads
648
00:36:24,617 --> 00:36:29,317
just walking and talking,
it could actually break down reality, so...
649
00:36:29,361 --> 00:36:31,058
Well, no. No!
650
00:36:31,101 --> 00:36:32,190
Then why can't you do it?
651
00:36:34,409 --> 00:36:35,497
I'm the narrator.
652
00:36:35,541 --> 00:36:36,585
He's the writer.
653
00:36:36,629 --> 00:36:38,326
What does that mean?
This isn't fair!
654
00:36:38,370 --> 00:36:39,588
No! It's...
655
00:36:40,894 --> 00:36:42,722
[sighs]
It's how it has to be...
656
00:36:44,245 --> 00:36:47,030
if everyone is going to live,
our family, our friends.
657
00:36:47,074 --> 00:36:49,163
This is why I became aware,
isn't it?
658
00:36:49,207 --> 00:36:51,165
Because I'm both inside
and outside of the story.
659
00:36:51,209 --> 00:36:53,733
In the end, the universe knew
I'd be the only one capable of saving it.
660
00:36:55,387 --> 00:36:56,214
All right.
661
00:36:58,128 --> 00:36:59,391
Where do I set up shop?
662
00:36:59,434 --> 00:37:00,827
Dilton's bunker?
663
00:37:00,870 --> 00:37:03,177
Your typewriter is already
down there.
664
00:37:03,221 --> 00:37:05,310
You'll have plenty of paper
and tons of food.
665
00:37:05,353 --> 00:37:09,052
And once you're settled,
we'll, uh, seal you in.
666
00:37:09,096 --> 00:37:12,969
This is insane.
I will not be able to live with myself, Jug.
667
00:37:13,013 --> 00:37:15,537
Actually, you will, in time.
668
00:37:15,581 --> 00:37:18,932
Well, very quickly, actually.
669
00:37:18,975 --> 00:37:23,458
Soon you will forget all about
Jughead's sacrifice for you and for us,
670
00:37:23,502 --> 00:37:25,155
and he will fade from memory.
671
00:37:26,940 --> 00:37:28,724
[whispers] Oh, my gosh!
672
00:37:28,768 --> 00:37:30,944
-This is--
-Hey, Hey! Look at me.
673
00:37:33,425 --> 00:37:34,730
I need you to be strong.
674
00:37:34,774 --> 00:37:36,471
Please.
675
00:37:36,515 --> 00:37:38,647
I need you in my corner
for this one.
676
00:37:38,691 --> 00:37:40,127
Make sure that bomb goes off.
677
00:37:41,128 --> 00:37:42,260
Jughead.
678
00:37:43,304 --> 00:37:44,740
It's gonna be okay.
679
00:37:45,741 --> 00:37:46,568
Really.
680
00:37:48,831 --> 00:37:51,269
We got this. You and me.
681
00:37:53,662 --> 00:37:54,924
Saving the universes.
682
00:38:08,329 --> 00:38:11,811
[narrator Jughead] It was
at this moment, that Jughead and Betty began, yet again,
683
00:38:11,854 --> 00:38:13,943
the doomsday clock's countdown.
684
00:38:13,987 --> 00:38:15,945
[clock ticking]
685
00:38:15,989 --> 00:38:18,165
While in the living room,
686
00:38:18,208 --> 00:38:21,342
Archie Andrews reanimated
and resumed his mission to stop Jughead.
687
00:38:25,346 --> 00:38:28,523
Hey, Cooper,
whatever happens...
688
00:38:29,655 --> 00:38:31,221
We'll face it together.
689
00:38:31,265 --> 00:38:33,093
[doorknob rattling]
690
00:38:37,489 --> 00:38:39,099
[pounding on door]
691
00:38:39,142 --> 00:38:40,622
[narrator Jughead] There was
nothing to do but wait.
692
00:38:40,666 --> 00:38:41,971
Betty and Jughead
held each other tightly,
693
00:38:42,015 --> 00:38:44,844
like children
terrified of the dark.
694
00:38:47,368 --> 00:38:49,631
As the bomb's counter
finally reached zero,
695
00:38:49,675 --> 00:38:52,460
Betty and Jughead
braced themselves for an explosion that should have
696
00:38:52,504 --> 00:38:54,419
obliterated one
or more universes.
697
00:38:54,462 --> 00:38:55,637
But instead...
698
00:38:57,160 --> 00:38:58,336
never happened.
699
00:39:07,562 --> 00:39:09,347
The bomb was gone.
700
00:39:09,390 --> 00:39:11,653
The pounding on the door
had ceased.
701
00:39:11,697 --> 00:39:15,135
And Betty and Jughead
realized that the storm had passed them by.
702
00:39:16,789 --> 00:39:18,399
They survived.
703
00:39:18,443 --> 00:39:19,879
They could resume their lives.
704
00:39:22,577 --> 00:39:24,579
[people chattering
indistinctly]
705
00:39:25,537 --> 00:39:27,234
There you guys are.
706
00:39:27,277 --> 00:39:29,018
We were just about to send
a search party.
707
00:39:29,062 --> 00:39:32,413
Seriously! What were you guys
doing up there?
708
00:39:32,457 --> 00:39:36,504
-Um... [chuckles nervously]
-I actually can't remember.
709
00:39:36,548 --> 00:39:38,419
Don't mind him.
710
00:39:38,463 --> 00:39:40,856
He always turns into
a space cadet when he's working on a new novel.
711
00:39:40,900 --> 00:39:42,336
[chuckles]
712
00:39:44,120 --> 00:39:46,688
No, seriously, what were we...
What were we doing?
713
00:39:46,732 --> 00:39:48,473
Oh, come on, Betty.
Your spaghetti's gonna get cold.
714
00:39:50,953 --> 00:39:53,173
-Hi.
-Hey. Thank you.
715
00:39:53,826 --> 00:39:55,610
[kisses]
716
00:39:55,654 --> 00:39:57,003
[narrator Jughead]
After dinner, Jughead and Tabitha
717
00:39:57,046 --> 00:39:58,700
will start moving
his belongings
718
00:39:58,744 --> 00:40:01,094
out of Archie's garage
and into their new apartment.
719
00:40:04,053 --> 00:40:05,664
Including a comic book
collection,
720
00:40:05,707 --> 00:40:08,188
Jughead had forgotten
that he had.
721
00:40:08,231 --> 00:40:11,713
And though he will not
know it in the moment, this collection of comic books
722
00:40:11,757 --> 00:40:14,368
and the secrets contained
within its pages
723
00:40:14,412 --> 00:40:18,720
will one day save his
and countless others' lives.
724
00:40:18,764 --> 00:40:21,070
[Ethel] So it worked.
725
00:40:21,114 --> 00:40:24,726
Rivervale will continue
to exist in an endless time loop you created,
726
00:40:24,770 --> 00:40:26,554
as long as you keep typing.
727
00:40:26,598 --> 00:40:28,077
Luckily, I've got
a lot of stories.
728
00:40:31,429 --> 00:40:32,908
One question, though.
729
00:40:34,127 --> 00:40:36,303
What happens in
the prime Riverdale universe?
730
00:40:37,739 --> 00:40:38,740
[sighs]
731
00:40:40,438 --> 00:40:43,266
Guess we'll never know
if someone did something
732
00:40:43,310 --> 00:40:45,704
to change the course
of events in Riverdale.
733
00:40:51,797 --> 00:40:53,799
[romantic music playing]
734
00:41:08,814 --> 00:41:11,599
-[cell phone ringing]
-[clock ticking faintly]
735
00:41:11,643 --> 00:41:12,470
Can you hear that?
736
00:41:14,994 --> 00:41:16,386
[sighs] It's my phone.
737
00:41:18,519 --> 00:41:21,348
-Hello.
-[man] Get out of that house, Betty!
738
00:41:22,349 --> 00:41:23,872
Who is this?
739
00:41:23,916 --> 00:41:25,613
Listen to me,
there's a bomb under the bed.
740
00:41:25,657 --> 00:41:27,659
You have to go now,
right now!
741
00:41:29,530 --> 00:41:30,662
We have to go.
742
00:41:31,576 --> 00:41:32,533
Now.
743
00:41:35,362 --> 00:41:37,190
-[explosion]
-[glass shatters]
744
00:41:41,629 --> 00:41:44,023
[ears ringing]
745
00:41:51,030 --> 00:41:52,858
[imperceptible]
746
00:41:52,908 --> 00:41:57,458
