1
00:00:01,925 --> 00:00:04,961
To all the subscribersof The Teenage Mystique,
2
00:00:04,995 --> 00:00:06,963
something happened to me.
3
00:00:06,997 --> 00:00:10,166
And I've read your storiesand watched so many peoplebe wronged,
4
00:00:10,200 --> 00:00:12,835
so I can't hold backany longer.
5
00:00:12,868 --> 00:00:14,938
All I wanted to dowas understand
6
00:00:14,971 --> 00:00:18,909
my authentic self, my desires,my place in the world.
7
00:00:18,942 --> 00:00:21,344
Because of that, I was forcedto be a cheerleader,
8
00:00:21,378 --> 00:00:22,745
I was put into therapy,
9
00:00:22,778 --> 00:00:25,748
my private diaries were read,I was demeaned.
10
00:00:25,781 --> 00:00:29,685
I am not your mother anymore.
11
00:00:30,552 --> 00:00:32,022
And then I was...
12
00:00:34,024 --> 00:00:34,925
slapped.
13
00:00:39,095 --> 00:00:41,630
Well, I'm finally goingto tell the truth.
14
00:00:41,664 --> 00:00:44,067
This is my manifesto, my book,
15
00:00:44,100 --> 00:00:47,370
The Collected and Expanded
Teenage Mystique.
16
00:00:47,404 --> 00:00:49,738
Every thoughtI've ever had, uncensored.
17
00:00:49,772 --> 00:00:52,875
Only the truthwill be allowed in these pages.
18
00:00:52,909 --> 00:00:55,477
The truth aboutbeing a teenager.
19
00:00:55,511 --> 00:00:57,080
Our stories.
20
00:00:57,113 --> 00:00:59,481
And if it burnsthis small-minded townto the ground,
21
00:00:59,515 --> 00:01:01,583
well, so be it.
22
00:01:02,818 --> 00:01:05,121
So, how do you wanna do this?
23
00:01:05,155 --> 00:01:08,058
Wanna go in first
and I mosey on in
30 seconds later?
24
00:01:09,259 --> 00:01:10,492
Absolutely not.
25
00:01:10,526 --> 00:01:12,661
Veronica Lodge's signature
color may be purple,
26
00:01:12,695 --> 00:01:14,197
but she is no shrinking violet.
27
00:01:15,031 --> 00:01:16,199
So, come on.
28
00:01:16,232 --> 00:01:18,935
Let's give these cubes
something juicy to goss about.
29
00:01:51,767 --> 00:01:53,003
Wowza.
30
00:01:53,036 --> 00:01:54,770
I've never had so many
peepers on me at one time.
31
00:01:54,803 --> 00:01:56,373
Well, if it's any consolation,
32
00:01:56,406 --> 00:01:57,873
I haven't gotten
this much attention
33
00:01:57,907 --> 00:02:00,243
since I arrived to school
wearing my sexy witch costume.
34
00:02:03,712 --> 00:02:05,382
Sexy witch costume?
35
00:02:05,415 --> 00:02:06,916
Jughead Jones.
36
00:02:06,950 --> 00:02:10,153
Do you have a thing
for sexy teen witches?
37
00:02:10,186 --> 00:02:11,388
Well, yes.
38
00:02:11,421 --> 00:02:12,621
Yes, I do.
39
00:02:12,654 --> 00:02:14,623
But I also know a boss idea
when I hear one,
40
00:02:14,656 --> 00:02:17,093
and sexy teen witch
is a very boss idea.
41
00:02:17,127 --> 00:02:20,863
Hmm. Well, glad to have
inspired something.
42
00:02:22,598 --> 00:02:23,799
Catch you later, alligator.
43
00:02:30,273 --> 00:02:32,708
So, what do you think,
Mrs. Grundy?
44
00:02:32,741 --> 00:02:33,943
Archie...
45
00:02:35,178 --> 00:02:36,712
This latest poem is...
46
00:02:38,048 --> 00:02:39,215
Excellent.
47
00:02:39,249 --> 00:02:42,118
It's so much more mature
than your earlier work.
48
00:02:42,152 --> 00:02:44,154
-It's like
you grew up overnight.
-I...
49
00:02:44,187 --> 00:02:46,189
-What happened?
-I...
50
00:02:49,526 --> 00:02:52,262
I... I watched the sunrise
like you suggested.
51
00:02:53,595 --> 00:02:55,131
Among other things.
52
00:02:55,165 --> 00:02:57,434
Well, keep doing
whatever it is you're doing.
53
00:02:57,467 --> 00:03:00,736
Well, I am definitely
going back.
54
00:03:00,769 --> 00:03:03,705
I will definitely do that.
55
00:03:04,974 --> 00:03:06,142
Just keep at it, like you said.
56
00:03:27,163 --> 00:03:28,198
Good morning, class.
57
00:03:39,808 --> 00:03:41,144
Come on.
You're yankingmy chain, Mantle.
58
00:03:41,177 --> 00:03:42,611
Shh!
59
00:03:42,644 --> 00:03:44,613
Cool it. Not so loud.
60
00:03:44,646 --> 00:03:46,516
You and Andrews?
61
00:03:46,549 --> 00:03:47,783
At the same time?
62
00:03:47,816 --> 00:03:49,152
Andrews.
63
00:03:50,686 --> 00:03:52,188
Is it true?
64
00:03:52,222 --> 00:03:55,225
You and Reg took a ride
on the town bicycle,
Twyla Twist,
65
00:03:56,859 --> 00:03:58,895
and you're going back
for seconds?
66
00:04:03,933 --> 00:04:05,401
And another thing,dear readers,
67
00:04:05,435 --> 00:04:06,835
I am sickof the double standard
68
00:04:06,869 --> 00:04:08,871
that celebrates boysfor their sexual conquests
69
00:04:08,905 --> 00:04:11,174
and punishes girlsfor wanting the same.
70
00:04:12,841 --> 00:04:15,145
Cheryl, I'm sorry.
71
00:04:21,251 --> 00:04:22,152
What are these?
72
00:04:27,423 --> 00:04:29,292
Hey, those pictures
are amazing.
73
00:04:29,325 --> 00:04:32,095
Are they from a private
collection of yours?
74
00:04:33,263 --> 00:04:36,199
I could try and spin
some story, Betty,
75
00:04:37,333 --> 00:04:39,735
but I'm tired of lying.
76
00:04:39,768 --> 00:04:42,838
The truth is, I am going steady
with Toni Topaz.
77
00:04:43,606 --> 00:04:45,341
Oh. Oh.
78
00:04:45,375 --> 00:04:47,243
Yeah, well, that makes sense.
79
00:04:47,277 --> 00:04:49,778
And just try to use it
against me,
I double-dog dare you.
80
00:04:49,811 --> 00:04:51,147
Oh, Cheryl. Don't worry. I...
81
00:04:53,616 --> 00:04:54,850
I'm the Girl Next Door.
82
00:04:54,883 --> 00:04:56,519
I write The Teenage Mystique.
83
00:04:56,553 --> 00:04:59,455
What? I love
The Teenage Mystique.
84
00:04:59,489 --> 00:05:01,457
The Girl Next Door's
advice is tops.
85
00:05:01,491 --> 00:05:02,592
Oh.
86
00:05:02,625 --> 00:05:04,260
It's an honor to meet you.
87
00:05:04,294 --> 00:05:06,862
Likewise.
88
00:05:06,896 --> 00:05:10,200
What are you doing
with those amazing pictures?
89
00:05:10,233 --> 00:05:12,635
Honestly, I was going
to submit them to
Femme-and-In magazine
90
00:05:12,669 --> 00:05:14,370
to come out in the most
unabashed way,
91
00:05:14,404 --> 00:05:16,738
and blow the lid off
of my parent's world
once and for all.
92
00:05:16,772 --> 00:05:18,675
That's exactly what
I'm trying to do
93
00:05:18,707 --> 00:05:21,144
-with the book version
of The Teenage Mystique.
-Now that's radioactive, Betty.
94
00:05:21,177 --> 00:05:25,148
It is. And, actually,
a story like yours and Toni's,
95
00:05:25,181 --> 00:05:29,252
written by you in your words
would be swell to include.
96
00:05:29,285 --> 00:05:33,256
Maybe accompanied
by some of those pictures?
97
00:05:33,289 --> 00:05:35,892
I have to talk to Toni,
98
00:05:36,626 --> 00:05:37,660
but, yes, Betty.
99
00:05:37,694 --> 00:05:38,895
The pages
of The Teenage Mystique
100
00:05:38,928 --> 00:05:40,762
might just be the perfect forum
101
00:05:40,796 --> 00:05:42,432
for our coming out
to the world.
102
00:05:42,465 --> 00:05:43,732
Oh, excellent.
103
00:05:45,801 --> 00:05:47,036
And Cheryl,
104
00:05:47,070 --> 00:05:50,640
do you think you and Toni
would be willing
105
00:05:50,673 --> 00:05:52,342
to take pictures
like yours of...
106
00:05:53,443 --> 00:05:54,677
Of me,
107
00:05:54,711 --> 00:05:56,679
possibly, for my book cover?
108
00:05:56,713 --> 00:05:58,147
Absolutely.
109
00:05:58,181 --> 00:06:00,049
We can do a photo session.
Then you can pick your favorite
110
00:06:00,083 --> 00:06:03,785
and I can turn it
into a luxurious,
supple oil painting
111
00:06:03,819 --> 00:06:05,021
for your book's cover.
112
00:06:34,883 --> 00:06:35,918
I have to tell you,
113
00:06:35,952 --> 00:06:39,022
this is the bee's knees,
Jughead.
114
00:06:39,055 --> 00:06:40,890
I didn't realize
you could draw too.
115
00:06:40,923 --> 00:06:42,692
Well,
I'm no Ethel Muggs,
116
00:06:42,725 --> 00:06:46,262
but I think this brain egg
could be the thing
to save Pep Comics.
117
00:06:46,296 --> 00:06:48,965
Mr. Fieldstone is looking
for a fresh breakout character
118
00:06:48,998 --> 00:06:51,234
to get past the code
and bring in new readership,
119
00:06:51,267 --> 00:06:54,704
and I think it's
Veronica the Teenage Witch.
120
00:06:56,239 --> 00:06:58,341
Veronica, you're not
gonna believe who's here.
121
00:07:00,677 --> 00:07:03,279
Miss Josie McCoy.
122
00:07:04,813 --> 00:07:07,283
The famous chanteuse?
123
00:07:07,317 --> 00:07:10,420
The founder of the Black
American Theater Project?
124
00:07:10,453 --> 00:07:11,988
The newly minted Tony winner?
125
00:07:12,021 --> 00:07:13,723
In the flesh
and fur.
126
00:07:13,756 --> 00:07:15,358
To what do we owe this honor?
127
00:07:15,391 --> 00:07:18,394
I've heard about your theater,
Miss Lodge.
128
00:07:18,428 --> 00:07:21,264
- I've heard you're not afraid
to shake things up.
129
00:07:21,297 --> 00:07:25,234
Well, I've built
an entire career
out of shaking things up.
130
00:07:25,268 --> 00:07:27,470
You may have heard
I've been working
on a major motion picture.
131
00:07:28,837 --> 00:07:30,540
Hush-hush, you understand?
132
00:07:37,246 --> 00:07:41,451
I have heard rumors
that your Broadway smash,
Going Uptown,
133
00:07:41,484 --> 00:07:44,053
is being turned
into a movie musical. Yes.
134
00:07:44,087 --> 00:07:45,688
The rumors are true.
135
00:07:45,722 --> 00:07:50,626
A movie musical
I wrote, directed,
produced, and starred in.
136
00:07:50,660 --> 00:07:53,563
You've always
been the definition
of a Renaissance woman.
137
00:07:53,596 --> 00:07:57,333
Well, then, you know
Josie McCoy is a perfectionist.
138
00:07:57,367 --> 00:08:00,470
This is my first
motion picture,
you understand?
139
00:08:00,503 --> 00:08:02,972
And I'm still in the middle
of my process, still tinkering.
140
00:08:03,005 --> 00:08:05,441
Close friends have seen
early cuts,
141
00:08:05,475 --> 00:08:08,311
but I need to know
how it plays out
in front of a real audience,
142
00:08:08,344 --> 00:08:11,581
far away from the prying
eyes of my partners
at Pasadena Pictures.
143
00:08:11,614 --> 00:08:15,785
I don't need
a bunch of starched suits
mucking things up
144
00:08:15,818 --> 00:08:18,221
and second-guessing
my every creative choice.
145
00:08:19,489 --> 00:08:23,159
Not until I have proof,
positive, say,
146
00:08:23,192 --> 00:08:25,661
filled-out questionnaires
from a test screening,
147
00:08:25,695 --> 00:08:27,930
possibly at your theater,
Miss Lodge.
148
00:08:27,964 --> 00:08:29,532
If it's up to my standards.
149
00:08:50,586 --> 00:08:51,587
Can I just say
150
00:08:52,688 --> 00:08:55,825
your movie is a surefire hit.
151
00:08:55,858 --> 00:08:57,493
And you, Miss McCoy,
152
00:08:57,527 --> 00:09:01,964
have made the leap
to bona fide movie star.
Cheers.
153
00:09:02,732 --> 00:09:04,100
But,
154
00:09:04,133 --> 00:09:07,003
why bother
with the test screenings?
155
00:09:07,036 --> 00:09:10,373
Let's just have ourselves
a good old-fashioned
red carpet movie premiere
156
00:09:10,406 --> 00:09:12,074
and blow the roof
off this joint.
157
00:09:12,108 --> 00:09:14,710
As I said, I'm still tinkering.
158
00:09:14,744 --> 00:09:16,245
But why tinker with perfection?
159
00:09:16,279 --> 00:09:18,981
You know how skittish
studio executives can be.
160
00:09:19,015 --> 00:09:21,684
Unfortunately, all too well.
161
00:09:21,717 --> 00:09:23,886
I have dealt
with my fair share.
162
00:09:23,921 --> 00:09:25,321
They're fear-driven creatures.
163
00:09:25,354 --> 00:09:26,589
Exactly.
164
00:09:26,622 --> 00:09:28,257
All right, then.
165
00:09:28,291 --> 00:09:29,792
Let's give them
the proof they need.
166
00:09:29,826 --> 00:09:31,494
I know the drill.
167
00:09:31,527 --> 00:09:32,762
We'll hand out
surveys at the end
of our test screening.
168
00:09:32,795 --> 00:09:34,530
Uh-uh, one moment.
169
00:09:34,564 --> 00:09:38,100
Miss Lodge, your theater
might be up to snuff,
170
00:09:38,134 --> 00:09:40,403
if slightly smaller
than I'd hoped.
171
00:09:40,436 --> 00:09:42,738
But I need to make certain
that the seats at my screening
172
00:09:42,772 --> 00:09:45,341
- won't be filled
with rubes and blue hairs.
173
00:09:46,309 --> 00:09:48,277
I need to get
a lay of the land,
174
00:09:48,311 --> 00:09:51,814
see if Riverdale's
as hep a town as
I've been led to believe.
175
00:09:51,848 --> 00:09:53,716
Oh, we're hep.
176
00:09:53,749 --> 00:09:56,085
But don't take my word for it.
177
00:09:56,118 --> 00:09:58,821
Kevin, Clay and I
can show you around.
178
00:09:58,855 --> 00:10:01,257
Why don't we meet up
tomorrow morning
at 8:00 for a tour?
179
00:10:01,290 --> 00:10:04,360
Eight in the morning?
180
00:10:04,393 --> 00:10:05,728
Oh, no, no, no.
181
00:10:05,761 --> 00:10:08,998
- I, my dear,
am a creature of the night.
182
00:10:09,031 --> 00:10:13,269
I roll out of bed leisurely
and start drinking espresso
at 3:00 in the afternoon.
183
00:10:13,302 --> 00:10:16,305
You will see me at dusk
and not a moment sooner.
184
00:10:16,339 --> 00:10:19,208
Well, there are
a few hotels in town,
185
00:10:19,242 --> 00:10:22,545
but why don't you stay
with me at the Pembrooke?
186
00:10:22,578 --> 00:10:25,848
It's sort of like The Plaza.
By way of the Dakota.
187
00:10:25,882 --> 00:10:27,683
Can I take you there
and get you settled?
188
00:10:30,686 --> 00:10:31,687
I like you, Miss Lodge.
189
00:10:34,090 --> 00:10:37,159
I think we're going
to get on just fine.
190
00:10:45,701 --> 00:10:48,170
Hi, Miss Twist.
191
00:10:49,639 --> 00:10:53,776
I, uh, was hoping that maybe
we could see each other again.
192
00:10:53,809 --> 00:10:56,145
Oh, yeah, I remember you now.
193
00:10:57,880 --> 00:11:00,416
Well, you got it wrong, Red.
194
00:11:00,449 --> 00:11:03,219
You see, Twyla is happy
to help a fella out of a rut.
195
00:11:03,252 --> 00:11:05,154
She doesn't do long-term.
196
00:11:05,187 --> 00:11:06,822
Especially not with puppy dogs.
197
00:11:06,856 --> 00:11:07,757
Oh, but I...
198
00:11:08,824 --> 00:11:10,059
really need the experience.
199
00:11:10,092 --> 00:11:11,527
If, that's the case,
200
00:11:11,561 --> 00:11:13,763
Lord knows, there's got to be
some hot older mama
201
00:11:13,796 --> 00:11:16,332
who would love to take a bite
out of a Red Delicious
like yourself.
202
00:11:17,500 --> 00:11:18,401
You dig?
203
00:11:33,115 --> 00:11:34,750
Okay. Are you ready?
204
00:11:34,784 --> 00:11:35,851
Yes.
205
00:11:35,885 --> 00:11:38,421
One, two, three.
206
00:11:41,357 --> 00:11:42,858
So pretty.
Okay, let's take two more.
207
00:12:00,476 --> 00:12:02,778
Hey, Veronica,
can I talk to you for a second?
208
00:12:04,380 --> 00:12:06,515
Word from the bird
is that Josie McCoy's in town,
209
00:12:06,549 --> 00:12:09,619
and you might be bringing her
to the Dark Room's
open mic tonight.
210
00:12:10,886 --> 00:12:14,390
My, gossip travels fast
in this town, doesn't it?
211
00:12:14,423 --> 00:12:18,194
If that's the case,
my boy, Fangs, here
is going to perform.
212
00:12:18,227 --> 00:12:21,163
If he and Midge are going
to make a go of it,
he needs a big break,
213
00:12:21,197 --> 00:12:23,366
one that Josie
might be able to provide.
214
00:12:23,399 --> 00:12:27,169
Do you think Miss McCoy
would be willing to pick up
what I'm putting down?
215
00:12:27,203 --> 00:12:30,306
Now I can't speak
for Miss McCoy, of course.
216
00:12:30,339 --> 00:12:33,509
But if there's one thing
a star like her recognizes,
217
00:12:33,542 --> 00:12:34,243
it's talent.
218
00:12:38,214 --> 00:12:39,382
Good morning,Mrs. Grundy.
219
00:12:39,415 --> 00:12:41,150
I brought you something.
220
00:12:41,784 --> 00:12:43,886
That is so sweet. Thank you.
221
00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:47,057
And Red Delicious
is my favorite.
222
00:12:47,090 --> 00:12:49,425
I, actually...
I wanted to let you know
223
00:12:49,458 --> 00:12:52,662
I'm performing
a new poem I wrote
at the Dark Room tonight.
224
00:12:52,695 --> 00:12:55,831
Yeah, I'd really be
jazzed if you could
make it and hear it.
225
00:12:55,865 --> 00:12:59,402
Well, I'm touched
that you would think of me.
226
00:12:59,435 --> 00:13:01,938
And yes,
of course I will be there.
227
00:13:01,972 --> 00:13:03,339
Anything for
my favorite student.
228
00:13:06,575 --> 00:13:08,611
She's bewitching.She casts spells.
229
00:13:08,644 --> 00:13:11,048
Nothing harmful or offensive,
of course.
230
00:13:11,081 --> 00:13:12,348
But mostly,
she's a high school student.
231
00:13:12,381 --> 00:13:13,950
She goes to class,
does her homework,
232
00:13:13,984 --> 00:13:15,751
gets into romantic trouble.
233
00:13:15,785 --> 00:13:19,288
You know, good old-fashioned,
wholesome, vampy, campy fun.
234
00:13:19,321 --> 00:13:20,756
-What do you think?
-Well,
235
00:13:20,790 --> 00:13:24,094
I think if she's going to stand
a snowball's chance in hell
236
00:13:24,127 --> 00:13:25,394
of getting past the Tribunal,
237
00:13:25,428 --> 00:13:28,197
we're gonna have to
sand the edges a little bit.
238
00:13:28,230 --> 00:13:30,033
They hear the word "witch",
239
00:13:30,067 --> 00:13:32,268
they're gonna be going
for their pitchforks, you know.
240
00:13:32,301 --> 00:13:34,104
-Teenage witch.
-No, no.
241
00:13:34,137 --> 00:13:35,838
I'm not saying
we ditch the concept.
242
00:13:35,871 --> 00:13:36,706
I'm just saying,
243
00:13:38,307 --> 00:13:40,609
I don't know,
make her a half-witch.
244
00:13:40,643 --> 00:13:42,645
And you'll have to get her
out of this getup.
245
00:13:42,678 --> 00:13:44,915
Too much cleavage.
246
00:13:44,948 --> 00:13:46,950
-And make her a blonde.
-Blonde?
247
00:13:46,983 --> 00:13:49,052
And you'll have to come up
with a new name, of course.
248
00:13:49,086 --> 00:13:50,286
New name?
249
00:13:50,319 --> 00:13:52,855
Yeah, Veronica?
250
00:13:52,888 --> 00:13:54,091
Reminds me of Veronica Lake.
251
00:13:54,124 --> 00:13:57,727
Too sexy, too dangerous,
too, um, curvy.
252
00:13:57,760 --> 00:13:59,096
Trust me, if you...
253
00:13:59,129 --> 00:14:02,298
It's gonna pass muster
with those prudes
over at the Tribunal,
254
00:14:02,331 --> 00:14:03,934
Nope, it has to be, uh...
255
00:14:03,967 --> 00:14:05,135
Has to be something sweeter.
256
00:14:05,168 --> 00:14:06,836
Yeah, I don't know. Magical.
257
00:14:22,618 --> 00:14:26,622
Now, you pick the one
you like the most,
and I will paint it.
258
00:14:26,655 --> 00:14:30,961
That way, we'll get
the exact look you want
for your book's cover.
259
00:14:36,967 --> 00:14:37,833
What's the hiccup?
260
00:14:37,867 --> 00:14:39,802
Are you displeased?
261
00:14:39,835 --> 00:14:42,139
No, I'm so glad
that I'm coming out
262
00:14:42,172 --> 00:14:44,540
as the voice
behind The Teenage Mystique.
263
00:14:45,942 --> 00:14:50,679
I just can't help feeling
a little bit like a fraud.
264
00:14:50,713 --> 00:14:53,849
Dressing in lingerie,
writing about sex
265
00:14:53,883 --> 00:14:58,121
when I haven't experienced
anything even remotely
sexually satisfying myself.
266
00:14:58,155 --> 00:14:59,722
What do you mean?
267
00:14:59,755 --> 00:15:01,490
I mean...
268
00:15:01,524 --> 00:15:05,494
Everyone I know is having
or has had sex.
269
00:15:05,528 --> 00:15:07,030
And I'm the only
teenager in the world
270
00:15:07,063 --> 00:15:10,133
who can't seem to find someone
to go there with me.
271
00:15:10,167 --> 00:15:13,836
Betty, you do know
a woman doesn't
272
00:15:13,869 --> 00:15:17,640
need anyone to be
sexually satisfied?
273
00:15:18,607 --> 00:15:19,475
She can...
274
00:15:20,843 --> 00:15:22,311
do it on her own.
275
00:15:22,344 --> 00:15:25,215
I did read about self-pleasure
in Kingsley's book,
276
00:15:25,248 --> 00:15:27,449
but it wasn't exactly
a how-to manual.
277
00:15:28,084 --> 00:15:29,385
I see.
278
00:15:30,020 --> 00:15:31,320
However...
279
00:15:34,623 --> 00:15:39,428
This particularly
illuminating issue
of Femme-and-In magazine
280
00:15:39,461 --> 00:15:41,864
might be exactly
what the doctor ordered.
281
00:15:41,898 --> 00:15:44,134
And I certainly
don't mean Werthers.
282
00:15:44,167 --> 00:15:48,171
Turns out, all a woman
needs to be sexually satisfied
283
00:15:48,205 --> 00:15:52,175
is a bathtub, a bathroom
with a lock on it,
284
00:15:52,209 --> 00:15:53,109
and...
285
00:15:54,443 --> 00:15:56,345
Shall we say,
286
00:15:57,147 --> 00:15:59,882
a helping hand?
287
00:15:59,916 --> 00:16:02,919
VeronicaThe Teenage Witchis too sexy, you say?
288
00:16:02,953 --> 00:16:04,887
I mean, he's not wrong.
289
00:16:04,921 --> 00:16:07,157
I am cut from the same cloth
as Veronica Lake
290
00:16:07,190 --> 00:16:11,727
and therefore,
too provocative for
those feeble-minded censors.
291
00:16:11,760 --> 00:16:13,395
It's their loss.
292
00:16:13,429 --> 00:16:15,531
On top of which,
I have to figure out
a new name,
293
00:16:16,266 --> 00:16:18,068
something more magical.
294
00:16:18,101 --> 00:16:22,538
Hey, did you happen to see
that Audrey Hepburn picture
that came out last year?
295
00:16:22,571 --> 00:16:24,640
Her character had
a superb name in that.
296
00:16:26,309 --> 00:16:27,877
What was that movie
called again?
297
00:16:27,911 --> 00:16:29,212
Sabrina.
298
00:16:29,246 --> 00:16:30,679
Audrey played
the title character.
299
00:16:30,713 --> 00:16:31,747
Sabrina.
300
00:16:31,780 --> 00:16:32,815
Yeah.
301
00:16:34,251 --> 00:16:36,086
Yeah, that could be the ticket.
302
00:16:42,758 --> 00:16:47,330
"In the bloom of Eden's garden,
the first transgression.
303
00:16:47,364 --> 00:16:50,466
A simple apple,
Eve learned her lesson.
304
00:16:52,601 --> 00:16:55,537
Different garden,
same temptation.
305
00:16:57,439 --> 00:17:00,809
A young man
seeking an education.
306
00:17:05,315 --> 00:17:07,951
A teacher's pupil
brings her apples,
307
00:17:07,984 --> 00:17:10,653
and sinful thoughts
with which he grapples.
308
00:17:10,686 --> 00:17:14,124
While she teaches,
he sits through classes
309
00:17:14,157 --> 00:17:15,691
wondering how she looks
310
00:17:17,093 --> 00:17:18,194
without those glasses."
311
00:17:28,905 --> 00:17:31,607
Jeepers, Archie,
that was kind of off the cob.
312
00:17:33,176 --> 00:17:35,211
Better luck next time, champ.
313
00:17:38,681 --> 00:17:41,217
Honestly, if that's what passes
for art in Riverdale,
314
00:17:41,251 --> 00:17:42,352
I don't think
this is going to work.
315
00:17:42,385 --> 00:17:44,087
Just you wait, Josie.
316
00:17:44,120 --> 00:17:46,488
There's another act
coming up that will have you
positively purring.
317
00:17:46,522 --> 00:17:48,024
Well, it's official.
318
00:17:48,058 --> 00:17:51,094
After that poem,
this is the iciest room
on the Eastern Seaboard.
319
00:17:51,127 --> 00:17:52,362
No worries, though.
320
00:17:52,395 --> 00:17:56,366
Give it up for my boy,
Fangs Fogarty.
321
00:17:56,399 --> 00:17:59,235
Whoo!
322
00:18:24,194 --> 00:18:26,662
The only personyou need to knowhow to please...
323
00:18:27,397 --> 00:18:28,597
is yourself.
324
00:19:43,806 --> 00:19:45,442
What did I tell you?
325
00:19:45,475 --> 00:19:47,576
- Hep, no?
- Hmm.
326
00:19:47,609 --> 00:19:51,580
Rock 'n' roll isn't my genre,
of course, but...
327
00:19:52,648 --> 00:19:54,084
He has something.
328
00:19:54,117 --> 00:19:57,586
Touch of star quality.
And that's more than most.
329
00:19:57,619 --> 00:19:59,322
Let me ask you.
330
00:19:59,355 --> 00:20:01,357
How is he on the bongos?
Do you know?
331
00:20:02,325 --> 00:20:04,060
To my knowledge,
332
00:20:04,094 --> 00:20:08,231
there is no better bongo player
in Riverdale. Why?
333
00:22:16,659 --> 00:22:18,194
Well...
334
00:22:18,228 --> 00:22:22,298
It's almost done, Miss McCoy.
and we're all still here.
335
00:22:22,332 --> 00:22:24,567
So what do you say?
336
00:22:24,601 --> 00:22:27,904
Is Riverdale hep enough for
a test screening of
Going Uptown?
337
00:22:29,339 --> 00:22:31,074
Let's do it.
338
00:22:32,808 --> 00:22:36,145
Miss McCoy, at the risk
of overstepping,
339
00:22:38,147 --> 00:22:42,719
would you also possibly
consider attending a meeting of
Black Athena at Riverdale High?
340
00:22:42,751 --> 00:22:45,787
It would mean so much to our
members to meet
a Black icon like you.
341
00:22:45,821 --> 00:22:46,923
Well, I like the sound of that.
342
00:22:46,956 --> 00:22:49,592
But what exactly
is Black Athena?
343
00:22:49,626 --> 00:22:53,596
It's a literary society
I started for the Black
students at Riverdale High.
344
00:22:53,630 --> 00:22:57,533
Hmm. Well, now that's
something Josie McCoy
can certainly get behind.
345
00:23:04,207 --> 00:23:05,341
Archie.
346
00:23:05,375 --> 00:23:06,409
Mrs. Grundy,
347
00:23:09,212 --> 00:23:12,548
We didn't get a chance to talk
last night after my poem.
348
00:23:12,582 --> 00:23:15,184
No, I had to rush home.
349
00:23:15,218 --> 00:23:18,087
My husband was expecting me
for a late dinner.
350
00:23:18,521 --> 00:23:19,555
Oh.
351
00:23:20,757 --> 00:23:24,961
Okay. Well, what do you think?
352
00:23:24,994 --> 00:23:29,399
I think we need
to switch gears.
353
00:23:31,534 --> 00:23:38,274
Love poems are all well
and good, but I would
like you to branch out.
354
00:23:40,710 --> 00:23:43,546
Okay... Sure.
355
00:23:45,782 --> 00:23:46,848
Okay.
356
00:23:46,882 --> 00:23:48,584
Anything you want, Mrs. Grundy.
357
00:23:48,618 --> 00:23:51,487
I want you to write about pain.
358
00:23:51,521 --> 00:23:55,158
Physical pain, emotional pain,
psychological pain.
359
00:23:56,759 --> 00:23:58,561
"What is my most
painful experience?"
360
00:23:59,762 --> 00:24:01,297
And write about that.
361
00:24:04,801 --> 00:24:08,104
And let's take
young heartbreak
off the table.
362
00:24:09,238 --> 00:24:12,075
As a topic, okay?
363
00:24:23,219 --> 00:24:25,688
I was so inspired.
I stayed up all night.
364
00:24:25,722 --> 00:24:26,855
So did I.
365
00:24:27,657 --> 00:24:30,093
So was I.
366
00:24:32,061 --> 00:24:34,030
Do you hate it?
I can adjust anything.
367
00:24:34,063 --> 00:24:35,498
-The background?
-No, no, don't.
368
00:24:36,933 --> 00:24:38,968
Don't... Don't change anything.
369
00:24:42,572 --> 00:24:43,439
It's beautiful.
370
00:24:44,540 --> 00:24:46,042
Silly goose.
371
00:24:48,277 --> 00:24:50,046
You're beautiful.
372
00:24:58,921 --> 00:25:02,191
Kid, I gotta say, I love this.
373
00:25:02,225 --> 00:25:05,395
I think you've
struck gold here.
Sabrina the Teenage Witch.
374
00:25:05,428 --> 00:25:07,163
Now that's a title.
375
00:25:07,196 --> 00:25:10,333
I'm going to send this off
to the tribunal for
review, stat.
376
00:25:11,033 --> 00:25:12,502
But congratulations, kid.
377
00:25:12,535 --> 00:25:15,605
I think this cutie patootie
half witch of yours is gonna
378
00:25:15,638 --> 00:25:20,076
single-handedly save Pep Comics
from the dustbin of obscurity.
379
00:25:24,147 --> 00:25:25,915
She's a woman
who needs no introduction.
380
00:25:27,049 --> 00:25:29,986
Josie McCoy's impact
reaches beyond the stage
381
00:25:30,019 --> 00:25:32,622
and into the very fabric
of our culture.
382
00:25:32,655 --> 00:25:35,825
I know you're all familiar
with the breadth of her
incredible work,
383
00:25:35,858 --> 00:25:38,928
but let's dive a little deeper,
shall we?
384
00:25:40,363 --> 00:25:41,964
Tracy?
385
00:25:41,998 --> 00:25:45,568
You are unapologetically you,
Miss McCoy.
386
00:25:47,003 --> 00:25:51,641
But as someone representing,
well, all of us,
387
00:25:51,674 --> 00:25:54,243
did you have to compromise
yourself along the way?
388
00:25:54,277 --> 00:25:58,648
-First thing, Tracy?
-Yes.
389
00:25:58,681 --> 00:26:03,486
You are not me,
and I am not you.
And yet, we are all beautiful.
390
00:26:03,519 --> 00:26:09,927
My darlings, our experiences
as Black people
are multi-faceted
391
00:26:09,959 --> 00:26:11,694
and rich and varied.
392
00:26:11,727 --> 00:26:15,665
But none of us should
have to compromise
ourselves for anything.
393
00:26:15,698 --> 00:26:22,405
We cannot. Compromise is not
a word in my vocabulary,
nor should it be in yours.
394
00:26:22,438 --> 00:26:26,709
I cannot help but give
my whole self
to every performance
395
00:26:26,742 --> 00:26:30,513
because the world deserves
every facet of my being.
396
00:26:32,448 --> 00:26:36,886
Miss McCoy, a while back on
a trip to New York City,
I was lucky enough
397
00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:41,123
to see you as Lady Macbeth,
opposite Charles Clayton
as Macbeth.
398
00:26:41,157 --> 00:26:44,293
That was at my
theater in Harlem. I remember.
399
00:26:44,327 --> 00:26:47,898
Mmm-hmm.
And your performance
has stayed with me ever since.
400
00:26:47,931 --> 00:26:49,933
You were so fierce
and commanding,
401
00:26:49,967 --> 00:26:52,468
yet, also vulnerable.
402
00:26:52,502 --> 00:26:56,038
Oh, sweetie, that is
the only way
I know how to be.
403
00:26:57,740 --> 00:27:03,679
Ferocious and vulnerable.
All things at once, and when
I work, I bleed.
404
00:27:03,713 --> 00:27:05,047
It's as simple as that.
405
00:27:05,081 --> 00:27:06,516
That's what I try to do
at my typewriter.
406
00:27:06,549 --> 00:27:07,617
I try to bleed, too.
407
00:27:09,318 --> 00:27:11,454
Enough about Josie McCoy.
408
00:27:11,487 --> 00:27:15,893
Tell me. Where did the idea for
the Black Athena club
come from?
409
00:27:15,926 --> 00:27:19,729
When I was in high school,
I would've crossed the Sahara
for a group like this.
410
00:27:19,762 --> 00:27:22,565
Honestly, Josie,
I started this club
because I was tired.
411
00:27:23,466 --> 00:27:24,734
Plain and simple.
412
00:27:24,767 --> 00:27:29,739
I was tired of this bogus town
telling me who I was.
413
00:27:29,772 --> 00:27:33,743
Tired of treading water in
the Caucasian sea of opinions.
414
00:27:34,677 --> 00:27:36,879
We all needed a haven.
415
00:27:36,914 --> 00:27:40,583
And I know I wasn't
the only one tired of being
told no by the gatekeepers.
416
00:27:41,851 --> 00:27:44,687
-So we...
-So you bet on yourselves.
417
00:27:45,989 --> 00:27:47,056
Mmm.
418
00:27:48,558 --> 00:27:49,759
Yes, I can see that.
419
00:27:52,595 --> 00:27:54,063
Yes, I certainly can.
420
00:27:56,098 --> 00:27:58,969
All right, let's blow this out.
421
00:27:59,002 --> 00:28:00,836
I want a full
red carpet premiere.
422
00:28:00,870 --> 00:28:02,338
All the bells and whistles.
423
00:28:02,371 --> 00:28:04,373
Spotlights, velvet ropes.
424
00:28:04,407 --> 00:28:07,476
The creme de la creme.
My movie is
in your hands, Veronica.
425
00:28:07,510 --> 00:28:11,314
But if Going Uptown
isn't a hit...
426
00:28:11,347 --> 00:28:13,917
If we invite the press and they
don't right 5-star raves,
427
00:28:13,951 --> 00:28:16,085
it won't just be my movie
that disappears.
428
00:28:17,054 --> 00:28:18,154
I disappear too.
429
00:28:19,022 --> 00:28:20,523
I won't get a second chance.
430
00:28:20,556 --> 00:28:22,325
And this film
cost me everything.
431
00:28:23,060 --> 00:28:24,160
What do you mean...
432
00:28:25,728 --> 00:28:26,629
"cost you everything"?
433
00:28:28,264 --> 00:28:30,099
I financed it myself.
434
00:28:31,969 --> 00:28:34,203
When Going Uptown became
a Broadway hit...
435
00:28:34,236 --> 00:28:39,642
When I, Josie McCoy made it
a hit, they wanted to turn it
into a movie.
436
00:28:40,810 --> 00:28:43,679
Of course, I was thrilled.
437
00:28:43,713 --> 00:28:48,351
Until I found out that my part,
the part that I won
a Tony Award for,
438
00:28:49,920 --> 00:28:53,756
was being reconceived
for Lana Turner.
439
00:28:55,524 --> 00:28:56,192
No...
440
00:28:56,792 --> 00:28:58,194
Yes.
441
00:29:00,396 --> 00:29:02,131
It was a slap in the face.
442
00:29:05,002 --> 00:29:08,905
Apparently, the powers that be
thought the silver screen
443
00:29:08,939 --> 00:29:13,542
wasn't ready for Josie McCoy
and her Black, beautiful self.
444
00:29:13,576 --> 00:29:15,745
So I scrounged up
every penny I had.
445
00:29:15,778 --> 00:29:19,315
I even mortgaged my brownstone
and I bought the rights
446
00:29:19,348 --> 00:29:22,551
to Going Uptown out
from under them, and I made
the damn thing myself.
447
00:29:23,786 --> 00:29:28,190
I put everything I had
into this picture.
448
00:29:28,224 --> 00:29:34,463
So the test screenings,
the surveys,
449
00:29:34,497 --> 00:29:36,933
weren't part of your process.
450
00:29:38,234 --> 00:29:41,038
-They're going to be for...
-Studios.
451
00:29:41,071 --> 00:29:45,008
If we tested well enough
with Black and white audiences
in the sticks,
452
00:29:45,042 --> 00:29:48,611
I thought that maybe...
Maybe I could convince
one of the majors to...
453
00:29:50,513 --> 00:29:52,181
To distribute Going Uptown.
454
00:29:52,214 --> 00:29:55,718
Then why the change of heart
to hold the premier now?
455
00:29:57,787 --> 00:30:01,657
Making Going Uptown,
and risking everything for it,
456
00:30:01,691 --> 00:30:05,561
it's the most terrifying
thing I have ever done.
457
00:30:07,030 --> 00:30:10,566
The studios. They don't think
I'm a movie star,
but I know I am.
458
00:30:12,535 --> 00:30:17,573
But Going Uptown will have to
explode like an atomic bomb.
459
00:30:20,776 --> 00:30:23,512
Are you tuned in and hearing
my signal straight?
460
00:30:23,546 --> 00:30:29,518
Josie, after the premiere
I'm going to throw you,
461
00:30:29,552 --> 00:30:33,622
you are going to have
a bidding war on your hands,
462
00:30:33,656 --> 00:30:37,660
which is exactly what a star
of your caliber deserves.
463
00:30:39,395 --> 00:30:40,931
I hate not being ableto see you.
464
00:30:41,764 --> 00:30:43,133
Or hold you.
465
00:30:43,166 --> 00:30:45,035
But we're cooking
with gas now, baby.
466
00:30:45,068 --> 00:30:48,537
I performed for
the Josie McCoy.
467
00:30:48,571 --> 00:30:51,440
She's gonna hook me up withher music producer in New York.
468
00:30:51,474 --> 00:30:53,977
A real hotshot,
Alexander Cabot.
469
00:30:54,010 --> 00:30:55,244
Killer Diller!
470
00:30:56,579 --> 00:30:59,715
Oh, Fangs. That's peachy
to the max.
471
00:30:59,749 --> 00:31:01,450
I'm gonna get you out
of that crazy place.
472
00:31:02,518 --> 00:31:04,487
We'll be together
before you know it.
473
00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:06,189
Theyrejected Sabrina?
474
00:31:06,223 --> 00:31:09,658
Yep. They kicked it back
and in record time.
475
00:31:09,692 --> 00:31:12,862
Sabrina the Teenage Witch
just ain't gonna fly, kid.
476
00:31:12,896 --> 00:31:14,396
Why? Did they say?
477
00:31:14,430 --> 00:31:17,100
Yeah, they...
They gave my ears
quite the bashing.
478
00:31:17,134 --> 00:31:21,004
Objected to pretty much
everything, like, for starters,
that she's a witch.
479
00:31:21,037 --> 00:31:22,404
This is nuts.
480
00:31:22,438 --> 00:31:24,673
Preaching to the choir, kid,
preaching to the choir.
481
00:31:24,707 --> 00:31:27,978
- You came up with something
fun and whimsical,
482
00:31:28,011 --> 00:31:33,183
and all they saw was witches,
Satanism, hocus pocus,
and human sacrifices.
483
00:31:33,216 --> 00:31:35,885
I know it's crushing,
but shame on us.
484
00:31:35,919 --> 00:31:38,654
We probably never should have
tried to launch a comic book
485
00:31:38,687 --> 00:31:40,422
about witch in the middle
of a witch hunt.
486
00:31:42,125 --> 00:31:44,227
I'm sosorry, Jughead.
487
00:31:44,261 --> 00:31:46,897
Sabrina The Teenage Witch
is a brilliant idea,
488
00:31:46,930 --> 00:31:49,331
and I'm not just saying that
because I inspired her.
489
00:31:49,365 --> 00:31:50,733
She's just ahead of her time.
490
00:31:52,969 --> 00:31:54,703
Give it a few years.
491
00:31:54,737 --> 00:31:58,507
Let the hysteria die down
and there will be
no stopping her.
492
00:31:58,541 --> 00:32:03,213
I just feel like Pep Comics
is sinking in quicksand.
493
00:32:03,246 --> 00:32:05,148
Listen, if you're down
in the mouth
494
00:32:05,182 --> 00:32:06,983
and not in the mood
for a premier,
495
00:32:07,017 --> 00:32:08,484
I'd completely understand.
496
00:32:08,517 --> 00:32:10,386
Are you kidding?
This is probably
the only chance
497
00:32:10,419 --> 00:32:13,756
I'll ever be invited
to a Hollywood premiere.
I'm not going to miss it.
498
00:32:13,789 --> 00:32:15,324
-The only thing is--
-You don't have a suit.
499
00:32:16,725 --> 00:32:18,929
I barely have any clothes
without an S on them.
500
00:32:18,962 --> 00:32:22,132
I thought we might
run into this predicament.
501
00:32:22,165 --> 00:32:27,103
So I may or may not have taken
some precautionary measures.
502
00:32:28,337 --> 00:32:31,908
Tailored exactly
to your measurements.
503
00:32:31,942 --> 00:32:36,246
I think you'll find nothing but
the best for my flutter bum.
504
00:32:36,279 --> 00:32:37,379
Yowza.
505
00:32:40,016 --> 00:32:42,118
Are you absolutely sure
you're not a teenage witch?
506
00:34:07,636 --> 00:34:09,406
Who's that sourpuss?
507
00:34:09,438 --> 00:34:13,509
He's a notoriously surly
but also highly influential
movie critic
508
00:34:13,542 --> 00:34:14,843
from the WABE Journal.
509
00:34:15,378 --> 00:34:16,745
Don't worry.
510
00:34:16,779 --> 00:34:19,448
You and your movie
are undeniable.
511
00:34:21,850 --> 00:34:23,353
Here we go.
512
00:34:50,914 --> 00:34:53,716
What the hell is going on,
you bozos?
513
00:34:53,749 --> 00:34:54,985
Film got hot and split.
514
00:34:55,018 --> 00:34:56,987
We need to splice it back
together and rethread it.
515
00:34:57,020 --> 00:34:59,389
Have you snapped your caps?
We're gonna lose them.
516
00:34:59,422 --> 00:35:00,723
-Who?
-The audience, Kevin.
517
00:35:00,756 --> 00:35:03,093
The audience and the critics.
518
00:35:03,126 --> 00:35:04,693
The spell has been broken.
519
00:35:04,727 --> 00:35:07,030
You two are the worst
projectionists in the world.
520
00:35:07,063 --> 00:35:09,032
You're fired,
we're no longer friends.
521
00:35:09,065 --> 00:35:11,401
And from now on you'll be
paying full price
for movie tickets.
522
00:35:11,434 --> 00:35:13,602
Everyone, calm down.
523
00:35:13,635 --> 00:35:16,406
Once. I was mid performance in
Greenwich Village when the club
got raided by the fuzz.
524
00:35:16,439 --> 00:35:18,208
But I still managed
to finish my performance.
525
00:35:18,241 --> 00:35:21,543
We will get through this
if we don't fall apart.
526
00:35:21,577 --> 00:35:24,414
You two, how long
will it take to splice
my film back together?
527
00:35:24,447 --> 00:35:25,881
I don't know. Five minutes?
528
00:35:25,915 --> 00:35:27,616
Five minutes.
529
00:35:27,649 --> 00:35:30,320
There are half a dozen critics
out there looking at their
pocket watches,
530
00:35:30,353 --> 00:35:33,023
wondering if they can catch
the next train out
of Riverdale.
531
00:35:34,324 --> 00:35:36,359
Hold your horses, folks.
Where do you think
you're going?
532
00:35:36,393 --> 00:35:39,528
All right. Now, why don't we
sit down and enjoy
the excitement?
533
00:35:39,561 --> 00:35:40,829
Well, they're fixing my film.
534
00:35:40,863 --> 00:35:42,432
How long would it take you
to get a band together?
535
00:35:42,465 --> 00:35:45,301
Fangs is here. So I'd say
about 60 seconds?
536
00:35:46,236 --> 00:35:47,569
Perfect.
537
00:35:47,603 --> 00:35:49,072
Then I'll buy these two
the time they need
538
00:35:49,105 --> 00:35:50,806
to get my movie fixed
and running again.
539
00:35:52,442 --> 00:35:56,112
Who says
motion pictures
are a frozen art form?
540
00:35:56,146 --> 00:36:01,518
While my associates are making
Going Uptown even more fabulous
than before,
541
00:36:01,550 --> 00:36:03,752
here in the flesh,
542
00:36:03,786 --> 00:36:06,456
performing the film's
title number,
543
00:36:06,489 --> 00:36:09,292
is Miss Josie McCoy.
544
00:36:10,626 --> 00:36:13,496
Gentlemen.
545
00:36:42,158 --> 00:36:45,562
When you look
around the room, look.
Tell me, what do you see?
546
00:36:45,594 --> 00:36:48,398
Imitations of imitations.
547
00:36:48,431 --> 00:36:52,435
I invented myself.
548
00:38:21,524 --> 00:38:23,927
I just saw Mr. Abrams off.
549
00:38:23,960 --> 00:38:26,162
He's on the train back
to New York.
550
00:38:26,196 --> 00:38:29,999
And? Is it going to be
a rave or not?
551
00:38:30,033 --> 00:38:32,535
Now, Josie,
you know these critics.
552
00:38:32,569 --> 00:38:35,471
But I may have greased
his wheels a bit,
553
00:38:35,505 --> 00:38:38,141
and gotten a taste of what
he's going to publish
in the journal.
554
00:38:38,174 --> 00:38:39,108
Let's hear it.
555
00:38:41,644 --> 00:38:43,680
First, the headline.
556
00:38:43,712 --> 00:38:45,548
"A star is born."
557
00:38:47,650 --> 00:38:49,552
Would you like to hear
the opening paragraph?
558
00:38:49,586 --> 00:38:50,719
Why not?
559
00:38:52,622 --> 00:38:54,591
"Stop the presses.
560
00:38:54,624 --> 00:38:58,027
An atomic bomb exploded
in Riverdale.
561
00:38:58,061 --> 00:39:01,931
People will be talking about it
for the rest of their days.
562
00:39:01,965 --> 00:39:05,034
Call the Oscars and tell them
that all of the major awards
563
00:39:05,068 --> 00:39:07,704
will be going to Josie McCoy
this year.
564
00:39:07,736 --> 00:39:13,409
Miss McCoy, the genius creative
force and I do mean force,
behind Going Uptown,
565
00:39:13,443 --> 00:39:18,747
has not only earned herself
a seat at the glorious table
that is Tinseltown.
566
00:39:18,780 --> 00:39:22,485
She has commandeered
the whole damn restaurant."
567
00:39:30,293 --> 00:39:31,793
This is really happening.
568
00:39:31,827 --> 00:39:33,129
I'm not dreaming.
569
00:39:33,162 --> 00:39:34,830
Josie,
it's not happening.
570
00:39:35,999 --> 00:39:39,435
It happened.
You made it happen.
571
00:39:39,469 --> 00:39:42,238
And as far as I'm concerned,
you put Riverdale and
the Babylonium
572
00:39:42,272 --> 00:39:45,141
on the map tonight,
so thank you for that.
573
00:39:45,174 --> 00:39:48,211
And by the way,
there's one thing
this reviewer got wrong.
574
00:39:49,178 --> 00:39:51,681
A star wasn't born tonight.
575
00:39:51,714 --> 00:39:53,383
You've always been
a star, Josie.
576
00:39:55,151 --> 00:39:57,253
From the first second
you drew breath.
577
00:39:58,121 --> 00:39:59,821
You weren't even
at the hospital.
578
00:40:01,591 --> 00:40:02,925
You're not wrong though.
579
00:40:03,993 --> 00:40:06,095
We make a good team, you and I.
580
00:40:06,129 --> 00:40:08,631
Perhaps we should
do this again.
581
00:40:08,665 --> 00:40:12,635
I wonder, Veronica,
if you're not just
treading water here,
582
00:40:12,669 --> 00:40:15,571
managing a theater
when what you should be doing
is making movies.
583
00:40:17,407 --> 00:40:23,046
- Uh-huh.
- I see I've intrigued you.
584
00:40:23,079 --> 00:40:24,813
That's what Josie McCoy
does best.
585
00:40:31,220 --> 00:40:33,956
Uncle Frank,
what's going on?
586
00:40:35,258 --> 00:40:36,893
Reggie, will you give us
a minute?
587
00:40:41,397 --> 00:40:42,298
What the hell is this?
588
00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:50,540
Mrs. Grundy asked us to write
about our most personal
and private pain.
589
00:40:53,543 --> 00:40:57,680
"Overseas or in mountain marsh,
that's where you really are.
590
00:40:57,714 --> 00:40:59,382
You have a plot of land
here at home,
591
00:41:01,951 --> 00:41:04,320
but you will always be lost
to me over there."
592
00:41:04,354 --> 00:41:07,290
Writing poetry to get with
the girl is fine. I said that.
593
00:41:09,025 --> 00:41:10,460
But writing about your father?
594
00:41:10,493 --> 00:41:14,330
Exploiting his sacrifice
for our country,
for our family?
595
00:41:15,665 --> 00:41:17,400
No.
596
00:41:17,433 --> 00:41:21,237
No! You will not sully
his memory like this.
597
00:41:21,270 --> 00:41:23,106
What's wrong with me writing
about my dad?
598
00:41:23,139 --> 00:41:25,375
I mean, I wish I could still
talk to him, but I can't.
599
00:41:25,408 --> 00:41:26,309
At least this way...
600
00:41:26,976 --> 00:41:29,545
Uncle Frank, stop!
601
00:41:29,579 --> 00:41:34,317
Don't you ever write about
your father like that again.
602
00:41:36,753 --> 00:41:38,254
Am I understood?
