[Jughead]
Previously onRiverdale...

I just have to ask.

When you were pretending
to be with Betty...

you didn't feel anything,
did you?

[Archie] I can't stop thinking
about you, Betty.

I've tried,
but it's impossible.

I wanted to share
something with you.

It's a song I wrote for you.

Stop. Whatever this is,
it's just over.

Hey, Mom,
I'm ready to get serious
about the Naval Academy.

[Veronica]
He's dying, Archie.

And I don't know what to do.

[shatters]

[Alice] What is this?

[Jughead] Footage of
their houses being watched
from across the street,

for hours upon hours.

[FP] Maybe it's just a prank.

-[Jughead] This is clearly
an escalation.
-[body thuds]

[FP] It's a warning
or a promise
of violence to come.

This was on our doorstep.

Maybe it's another copycat?

[Jughead]
I've seen this place before.

Oh, my God.

Are they stabbing Mr. Honey?

[Betty]
Hey, did you reach out
to Mr. Honey?

We did, he's fine.
No one's tried to kill him.

Well, for now, at least.

In the meantime, you mind
breaking this down for me?

Well, it's the Auteur again.

Seems like they've moved on
from recreating a killing

to re-enacting
a metaphoric murder.

Us and our friends
getting Mr. Honey fired.

And there is one other thing.

I wrote a story
called Killing Mr. Honey,

within which
was a fictionalized version
of this cabin.

I don't think
that's a coincidence.

All right, uh, who else knew
about that story?

-Just us.
-Yeah.

Me and Betty.

I mean, unless
I'm being watched or hacked.

This is interesting.

[Charles]
It's four ticket stubs.

[Betty] From, like,
the movie theater?

Admission to watch the tapes?

Stubs have the letters
"B" and "V" on them.

The hell?
Like Betty and Veronica?

No, Blue Velvet.

Like Blue Velvet Video?

As in the one place
that all roads
keep coming back to,

that video store
and that crypt-keeper, David.

If he's not the Auteur,
he's connected
to the Auteur somehow,

-or at least he's a fan.
-We'll bring him in.

I'll call you in the morning.
Get some rest.

Okay, good night.

Early morning run, Archiekins?

I got my physical
for the Naval Academy
this week.

Well, I find it hard to believe
they wouldn't be impressed
by my teenage Thor.

You could always serve
your country in the USO.

-What are you talking about?
-Oh, nothing.

This new song you've written.

-Oh.
-Mmm-hmm.

That is nothing.
Just something
I'm kicking around.

Play it for me.

-No, Ronnie, I stink
and so does this song.
-[paper crumpling]

Trust me.

Okay.

I do like the idea
of you getting back
into music, though.

Right now, my focus is on
impressing the Commandant.

And you will.

Because I'll be there
to make sure of it.

[cell phone vibrating]

[sighs]

It's Daddy.

-He wants me home
for breakfast.
-That's too bad...

'cause I was gonna ask you
if you wanted to join me
in the shower.

Hey, there you are.
Come, sit, join us.

I have news.

Please don't tell me
you and Mom
are chaperoning prom?

We are, but no.

My news is that
according to my doctor,

my core strength
is building back up.

In fact, my grip is almost as
strong as it was pre-diagnosis.

-What are you saying, Daddy?
-I'm beating it.

I'm beating this damn disease.

Honey, that's incredible.

It is, assuming it's true.

Forgive me
if I call your doctor

to confirm that this isn't
another one of your stories?

Fine.

Does he know why
you're bouncing back?

I've been trying
this new workout regimen
that seems to be helping.

[man grunting]

[police sirens wailing]

Thank you, Doctor. TTFN.

Well, it seems to be true.

Well, this calls
for celebration.

Cheers.

[all] Salud.

[Charles]
Huh. He's not talking.

Unless you count movie quotes.

Well, what did he have to say
about his store's initials
on those ticket stubs?

-He's never seen them before
in his life.
-[scoffs] Right.

You know, I don't know
if this creep is responsible
for making the videos,

but I can't shake the feeling
that somehow
he is profiting off them.

Same.

Where's your partner-in-crime?

She's following up
on another lead.

What exactly are you
accusing me of, young lady?

I'm not accusing. I'm asking.

If I made a videotape
of you and your classmates
murdering poor Mr. Honey?

Things haven't changed much,
I see.

-Mr. Weatherbee, you're back?
-Indeed.

Just in time for senior prom
and graduation.

How... How are you?

I told Edgar I wasn't the mole.
He cut it off.

I make it through most nights
without waking up screaming.

Two businesses? Another
besides this community center?

Yes, Commandant.
Archie is also the owner
of Andrews Construction,

a business he inherited
after his father's passing.

Well, I have to say,
I am truly impressed by you,
Mr. Andrews.

Thank you, sir.

However, when it seemed like
you were no longer interested
in the Academy,

I started looking
at other candidates to appoint.

Is there someone else
you're considering, sir?

Yes, a young man from Queens,

who's been training rigorously
for the Academy.

He's also a boxer like I was.

And, as you know, we have
a proud boxing tradition
in the Navy.

I'm looking for a champion.

Crazy idea,

if you're considering Archie
and someone else,

how about deciding it
with an exhibition bout?

Right here at the El Royale.

You know, I do feel that
Archie and this young man
are otherwise evenly matched.

Okay. I'll have my office
reach out to K.O. Kelly,

to see how quickly he can
hop a train to Riverdale.

Wait a minute. K.O. Kelly
is your other candidate?

Yes. Why? You know him?

Um, yes.

He's only dating
one of my BFFs, Katy Keene.

[chuckles]

Well, Ms. Bell was a bust.

Yeah, well, Charles
didn't have much luck

with the video store's
owner, either.

You know, I do have an idea
of someone we could talk to

who might be able
to give us dirt on David.

The only caveat being
he's tried to kill me.

[school bell rings]

Our momentous best day
is almost upon us, T.T.

Can I ask, why do you want
to be prom queen so badly?

Want, T.T.?

Does Elizabeth want
to be the Queen of England?

A better question is
why don't you
wanna be prom queen?

Listen,
if it's important to you,

it's important to me.

But the only royalty I care
about is being Serpent Queen,

which I will be, again.
You'll see.

Hey, Cheryl, Toni.
Is this where I sign up
to run for prom person?

Oh, no, Kev, I don't think
you wanna do that.

Yeah, no, I don't, actually,
but Fangs has always wanted
to be prom king,

-so here we are.
-Well.

I hate to rain
on Fangs' parade,

but Toni and I are campaigning
to be co-queens,

and it has been my destiny
to wear that prom crown
since birth.

I have spent my entire life
fantasizing about
being prom queen,

and a part of that fantasy
is that I exist in a world

where everyone wants me
to be prom queen

and certainly not themselves.

Does that make sense?

Yeah. Yeah.

Thank you, Kevin.
As my friend, I knew
you'd understand.

[sighs]

Whatever happens
with your fight,

I've booked us
the presidential suite
at the Five Seasons

for our apres-prom rendezvous.

It'll be just you, me,

-a bathtub
full of rose petals and...
-[doorbell dings]

[gasps] K.O. Kelly!

-Ronnie. [chuckles]
-Hi.

Hey.

Welcome to Riverdale.

K.O., this is Archie Andrews.

-Archie, this is K.O. Kelly.
-Ah...

So, you're my competition.

No offense, but are we
even in the same weight class?

[scoffs] I'm bigger
than I look, bro.

Boys, boys! Save the sparring
for the ring.

I promised Katy
I'd show K.O.
a good time tonight.

Yeah, I'm down. But first,
Ronnie, do you know where
I can drop my stuff?

As a matter of fact, I do.

Archie has graciously agreed
to have you stay with him
and train at his gym.

-I'm heading there now
if you need a ride.
-All right.

Play nice, boys.

[Bret] Well, well, well.
Never thought I'd see
you two again.

What brings you
around these parts?

Look, Bret, we know you
sold your sex tapes
to Blue Velvet Video.

Now, the owner, David,
keeps coming up
in an ongoing investigation

that we're conducting,
but he's not talking to us.

We need a way in.
We need leverage.

Yeah. I know David.

But if he's not talking,
why should I?

See, I happen to have a friend
in there with you.

His name is War Baby. Mmm-hmm.

Do you know who he hates
more than anyone?

Preppies.

What's the investigation?

Someone is making videos
of us and our friends

doing disturbing,
violent things.

We think this David person
is connected to them.

Did he ever mention
or host any screenings
with the videos in stock?

Some of David's customers
prefer... shared experiences.

Underground, immersive

red-band screenings.

If we wanted to attend
one of these screenings,
what would we need to do?

You'd have to be on the list.

Or you'd have to prove to David

that you're the real deal.

Bring him a tape.

Something to make him sit up

and take notice,

like, say, a snuff film.

Holy moly! That guy's
gotta have 50 pounds on you.

Yeah, no joke.

What am I gonna do, Mr. Keller?

He's gonna cream me
tomorrow night.

Well, honestly, Archie,

I think
a little psychological warfare
might be your best bet.

You're smaller than he is,

but I'm willing to bet
you're stronger.

Let's go show 'em.

-You got a mean left hook
on you, K.O.
-Thanks.

Been punching bag
since I was a baby.

Look, I promised Ronnie
no betting on our actual match,

but how about you and me
make a little side bet?

That, pound for pound,
I'm stronger than you are.

-Unless you're too scared.
-[scoffs]

Twenty... 21...

27... 28... 29...

91... 92... 93...

122... 123... 124...

129... 130...

131...

[Kelly] Okay, I'll admit it.
You got more endurance.

But when it comes
to brute power,
we'll see who's stronger.

The Heavyweight Heartbreaker
or the Red Hope.

Yeah, we will.

And tomorrow
your ass is grass.

[chuckles]

But, tonight, Ronnie wants us
to show you a good time

so we're going
to her speakeasy.

Her what?

Okay, I know this is Riverdale,

but where do we get
a snuff film

in which someone
gets murdered on screen?

But those are just
urban legends, I thought.

Well, not according
to Nicolas Cage movies.

-Maybe we can make one.
-A snuff film?

Well, a facsimile of one.

It just has to be
convincing enough

for David
to let his guard down.

We could even
borrow the equipment
from the AV club.

And Jellybean probably
still has that fake blood
left over from Halloween.

Who's our murderer?
Who's our victim?

We just need a brute
and a scream queen.

No, I won't help you.

No, no, Cheryl,
it's not an actual snuff film.

It's an act. It's a way
to get closer to the Auteur,

the person
who's been creating
those re-enactment videos,

including the one
with Jason and your father.

I do want to expose
that defiler.

What's this movie about anyway?

Uh, it's a classic tale,
one as old as time.

Girl meets a boy,
boy promises
to make girl a star,

and then the boy
kills the girl.

Charming.

Okay, but I'll need a wig.

I don't want anyone
to recognize me
by my signature red mane.

Okay.

Well, how do I look?

Oh, my God,
you look incredible.

What about me?

Terrifying, Reg.

-What happens next,
Mr. De Palma?
-Yes.

Now, Reggie
is going to kill you

in the most brutally
exploitative way imaginable,

and I am going to film
the hell out of it.

[mic feedback]

[Veronica speaking French]

-[in English] Is everyone
having a good time tonight?
-[all cheering]

Excellent.

In honor of my friend
K.O.'s visit,

I thought I'd share
a little tune for you tonight.

It was written by someone
very special to me.

This one's for you, Archiekins.

K.O., please tell Katy
that I'm sorry
she's not gonna be here

when my boyfriend
beats up her boyfriend.

-I'll let her know.
-[Veronica chuckles]

Good night.

Wait.

Yeah?

I love you.

I love you, too.

I have a proposal
I'd like to share with you.

I'd like us to host a din-din
before the dance.

I'm down. Who should we invite?

Mmm, the Vixens,

-Kevin, Fangs...
-I was thinking our families.

Specifically yours, my love.

Cheryl, even though I'm out
to my grandparents

and I'm their
favorite grandchild,

I don't think
they can handle some big
gay prom dinner party.

Well... [sighs]

what happens when I meet them
at graduation?

Do I just pretend like
you're not my girlfriend?

Honestly, that's probably
a good idea.

T.T., you can't be serious.

I know it's crazy
and backwards,

but that's my reality, babe.

Hey, I'm curious, Archie.

What made you seek out
the Naval Academy?

Well, all my friends
applied to college.

I kind of missed the boat
on that.

And I got a second chance
with the Commandant.

The Academy, it feels like
it could be a good place
to start over.

Completely.

Well...

not completely.

You and Ronnie are in it
to win it, Katy says.

I don't know, bro,
sometimes I worry

that I'm holding her back,
you know?

I feel you.

But that is
for the ladies to decide,

not lugs like us.

We lucked out.

Good night, bro.

[school bell rings]

-[Kevin] Hey, guys.
-Hey, Kev.

We have a favor to ask.

We are trying to sell
a snuff film
to this video store,

but I can't go in there
because the owner's
gonna recognize me

from the time
I raided the place
with the FBI.

But I don't want Betty
to go in alone, so...

-You had me at snuff film.
-Thank you, Kev.

We just have to
stop by my house.

I need to grab a backup,
just in case.

Cool.

I need to talk to you
about something, Nana,

and I'm really hoping
that you'll keep an open mind.

I think I know
what this is about.

Your girlfriend stopped by
for a visit, Antoinette.

My girlfriend did? What?

When were you gonna tell me
that you were dating a Blossom?

Nana, it's not what you think.

Cheryl isn't what you think.

That family, over the decades,
has taken everything from us.

-And from our people.
-That's ancient history.

And I promise you
Cheryl is nothing
like her family.

If that's true, then why
have you kept her hidden
like a dirty secret?

It's because you know
it's wrong.

No, it's because
I knew this would be
your irrational reaction.

About this? Yes.

I will not allow you
to date a Blossom.

[David]
You look familiar to me.

Both of you do.
You come in here before?

-Nope, never, shockingly.
-Mmm-mmm.

A classmate of mine
from prep school
said that you buy videos.

Underground videos.

My friend and I saw this video
at a party last weekend.

And we boosted it.
It's of a girl getting killed
for real.

A snuff film.

Let me take a look.

[whimpering]

[screaming]

Sorry, kids, you were conned.

Or you're trying to con me.

But this snuff is a fake.

We were worried that this tape
might not be authentic,
so I brought a backup

that I know for a fact
is the real deal.

[tape inserts into VCR]

[woman on video]
I'm making this movie
so we never forget

what your daddy
sacrificed for us.

You do love your daddy,
don't you, Harold?

-[boy on video] Yes, Mommy.
-What is this?

[woman] And you want your daddy
to keep living with us?

The birth of a serial killer.

[boy] Yes, Mom.

The Black Hood as a little boy.

Is that really him?

-The Black Hood?
-Yeah.

That's my dad.

[whispering] This is insane.

Could I screen this at
a little film festival/rave
I'm organizing?

Yeah, as long as
we're invited to the screening.

[chuckles]

[woman on video] ...because
we don't want Daddy to be
taken away from us, do we?

-[boy] No.
-[woman] But you,

you will do better.
You must do better.

[crowd cheering]

That a boy. Go get him, Arch.

[indistinct chatter]

Welcome to
the Film Society, girlie.

We got your daddy's movie
playing in Room 317.

[bell dings]

Welcome to the Film Society.

My dad's playing
in Room 317, apparently.

Awesome.

So, what exactly
are we supposed to be
looking for here?

To see if any of the Auteur's
movies are playing

or if any of these people
are fans of his.

Let me just get
a lay of the land first.

[projector whirring]

[men laughing on video]

[crowd groans]

[crowd cheering]

[woman speaking indistinctly
on video]

[woman on video]
Can you do that, Harold?
Convince him?

You're a good boy, Harold.

Your father made a mistake.
But you, you will do better.

You must do better.

-[Jughead] Betty.
-Yeah.

[bell dings]

[crowd cheering]

[bell dings]

[cheering]

[video playing indistinctly]

These are
all the Auteur's films.

Well, then
he's gotta be in here.

Do you know who the director
of this is?

Do you know who the director
of this--

Are you the director?

-[Betty] Hey!
-Oh, I'm actually
such a big fan.

-If I'm lucky,
I'll get an autograph.
-[boy] Who is that?

Ponytail Playmate.
You're even hotter in person.

Whoa, whoa, hey!

Jug, we're leaving,
we're leaving,
we're leaving.

Go, go, go.

[bell dings]

Here.

[Keller] Give me
two big breaths.

[breathes heavily]

Jug, look.

Oh, that's him.
That's gotta be him.

[upbeat rave music playing]

Come on, Arch!

[people cheering, whooping]

-Jellybean?
-Jughead?

Betty, go. Let me stay
with Jellybean. Go, after him!

-What are you doing here?
-No, what are youdoing here?

My friends and I heard
there was a party.

Am I in trouble?

No, no, you're not in trouble.
Come on, let's go.

[bell dinging repeatedly]

Stop, stop, stop!

-Fight's over.
-[cheering]

[exhales]

[panting]

Ladies and gentlemen,
the first judge
has scored the fight

in favor of K.O. Kelly.

[weak applause]

Our second judge
has scored the fight
for Archie Andrews.

[people cheering loudly]

And our third judge,
the Commandant,

has scored the fight in favor

of K.O. Kelly,
your winner tonight.

[people murmuring]

[scattered applause]

[Commandant] You're a hell
of a fighter, Archie.

I'll tell you what,
why don't we stay in touch,

and, come fall,
you reapply to the Academy,

-we'll see if we can't
make it happen for you then.
-No, thanks, I'm good.

Archie, don't be disrespectful.

Your blood's still boiling.
I understand, son.

I'm not your son.

And I'm not applying
to your school again.

Cheryl, what the hell
did you do?

What the hell, indeed, Toni.

I thought
you didn't want me
to meet your nana

because I'm a lesbian.

But, surprise!
It's me and my family

she hates
with a fiery vengeance.

Cheryl, you have to admit that
your ancestors were horrible
to mine.

And now, my nana
is begging me not to go
to prom with you.

She says that it would
dishonor our family.

Look, I'm truly, truly sorry
I went to see your nana.

But I really hope
we're still going
to prom together, T.T.

I hope that when
I'm posing for pictures
in my amazing dress,

that you're there with me,
looking equally undeniable.

How did you even know
where to go, Jellybean?

My friend, Lauren, from soccer.

Her older brother
heard about a rave.

-From who?
-I don't know.
He's on some email list.

[sighs]

Jug, I swear, I've never been
to a rave before.

Will you just promise me
you're not gonna go

to any more X-rated raves
from now on?

Especially if I end up
in the University of Iowa.

-Okay?
-Yes.

-You promise me?
-I promise.

[sighs]

Archie.

I'm sorry about the fight.

I wish I hadn't suggested it.

And I know
this sucks right now,

but the Naval Academy
wasn't your only option.

Yeah, it kinda was, Ronnie.

Hey, listen.

Do you wanna blow off prom?

We could do something.

Anything you want.
Just the two of us.

No, this will be the last dance
we have with our friends.

Can't miss it.

Are you sure, Archie?

I'm in.

I still wanna take a picture
of you, dear.

You look like an angel.

Thank you, Nana.

Perhaps your camera
will capture
the sublime tragedy of my life.

-Okay.
-Don't start crying yet,
Cheryl.

Toni, you came.

Was there ever any doubt?

Ready?

[camera shutter clicks]

[both giggle]

[Nana Rose] Oh, that's nice.

[camera shutter clicks]

[Hiram] Looking sharp, Archie.

Thank you, sir.

You know, uh, Veronica told me
about the Naval Academy.

-Unlucky break.
-It wasn't meant to be.

Well, look, um...

if you decide to stay
in Riverdale, Archie,

it just so happens
I'm in need of a deputy mayor

to oversee community outreach.

I think
you'd be perfect for it.

[footsteps approaching]

Well, Archiekins,
what do you think?

Am I dazzling?

-Wow.
-[Veronica chuckles]

Okay, you two, snuggle up
for a picture.

This is a memory
you're going
to treasure forever.

Smile and say, "Endgame."

Three, two, one...

[camera shutter clicks]

Damn, boy, you're handsome.

Like father, like son.

Oh, my gosh. Betty.

[exhales sharply]

Betty Cooper,
you take my breath away.

Jughead Jones,
the feeling's mutual.

Okay, guys, picture time.

Smile.

-[chuckles]

Did you and Daddy
have a nice chat?

Did you know he was
gonna ask me to be
his deputy mayor?

He might've mentioned it.

But did he tell you
about my big idea?

No.

I'm going to defer Barnard
for a year

so you and I can work together,
side by side.

Ronnie...

No, I... I don't think
that's a good idea.

I couldn't live with myself
if I knew I was holding
you back that way.

But you're not.

I'm choosing to be with you.
This is my decision.

I'd be dragging you down.
I don't want that.

I'd rather lose
one meaningless year

than be out of sync with you,
maybe forever.

Ronnie, I wrote that song
for Betty.

Come again?

The song that you found
and sang at the speakeasy.

It was for Betty.

I don't understand.

-Did you guys--
-We kissed.

Once during Hedwig,

but that's it,
and we didn't wanna hurt
you and Jughead.

[mic feedback]

Well, the votes
have been tallied and
double-checked by Ms. Bell.

It is now my honor
to announce this year's
prom king and queen.

Actually, make that
prom queens.

Congratulations
to Miss Cheryl Blossom

and Miss Antoinette Topaz.

[cheering]

Your new prom queens,
let's hear it!

Mr. Weatherbee,
fellow classmates,

tonight, Toni and I
are being named

Riverdale High's first
openly gay royal couple.

However,
no queenship is complete
without their court.

So would my dear cousin
Betty Cooper, Jughead Jones,

Veronica Lodge
and Archie Andrews,

please join us
for the traditional
promenade court dance.

Reggie Mantle prank, I--

Did they just kill that guy
from Blue Velvet Video?

Yeah, come on. Let's go.

What the hell just happened?

Well, we didn't get to finish
our ceremonial dance,

but we did win our crowns.

Come, fair T.T.,
our carriage is waiting

to whisk us back
to Thistlehouse.

[sighs]

What's wrong, my sugarplum?

I can't go home
with you, Cheryl.

Because of your nana.

But I don't understand.
I thought you picked me.

For tonight, I did.

My nana said that
if I didn't get home
by midnight,

that she would never
speak to me again.

I hope you can understand.

Of course, Toni.

Family is
the most important thing.

Go and be with your nana.

And thank you for tonight.

Despite those moments
of video horror,

I will treasure these memories.

Always.

Thank you, Cheryl.

I'm sure we'll be able
to work it out.

-She just needs time, okay?
-[softly] Okay.

[Veronica] I don't wanna finish
this conversation, Archie.

But we have to.

I know.

Did Betty tell Jughead
about what happened
between you two?

No.

We both swore we wouldn't.

[sniffles]

Well, we should keep it
that way.

No need to blow them up, too.

I agree.

So, what do we do now?

Clearly, our last two weeks
of high school

are going to be fraught.

And I don't want them

overshadowed by...

this. [sniffles]

So, after graduation,

we go our separate ways,
Archie.

No big drama,

no fireworks,

I'll go to Barnard,

and you do whatever
feels right to you.

[cries]

[Betty] Where did they go?

-Where's the creepy
video store guy?
-And our doppelgangers.

Why does every one
of our dances

turn into
a Jamie Lee Curtis movie?

[sighs]

Veronica?

-[sniffles]
-What's wrong?

Was it that horrible video?

No.

It's not that, Mom. Um...

Something happened
between Betty and Archie.

Oh, honey.

[sobs]

[Hermione] I'm so sorry.

It's okay.

It'll be okay.

There, there, my child.

It shall all be fine
in the end.

-Not this time, Nana.
-Oh.

Today, I realized Toni and I
won't end up together.

Once again, I'm a victim
of this family's curse.

I can no longer outrun my fate.

I am a Blossom...

destined to be alone.

[Charles]
We got an APB out for David.

If he's behind the videos
and he is fleeing,

-he's not gonna get far.
-Okay, but what if he
wasn't the Auteur

and he was really killed?

Well, then, the video
shown at prom
was an actual snuff film.

What do we do?
What canwe do?

-Continue our search for David.
-Or wait for the next video
to drop.

Pray that it's not the straw
that breaks the camel's back.
