ARCHIE:  Previously
on Riverdale...

2
00:00:03,545 --> 00:00:05,756
JUGHEAD:
This story is about a town,
once wholesome and innocent,

3
00:00:05,798 --> 00:00:08,717
now forever changed
by the mysterious death
of Jason Blos

4
00:00:08,759 --> 00:00:10,135
on the 4th of July.

5
00:00:10,177 --> 00:00:11,846
-Can we talk, Ms. Grundy?
-About what?

6
00:00:11,887 --> 00:00:13,764
You're the music teacher.
Can we talk about music?

7
00:00:13,806 --> 00:00:15,349
(GUNSHOT IN DISTANCE)

8
00:00:15,390 --> 00:00:17,476
We heard what we heard,
and afterwards
we didn't do anything!

9
00:00:17,518 --> 00:00:21,689
How would we explain why
we were together at 6:00 a.m.
on the 4th of July?

10
00:00:21,730 --> 00:00:23,691
-HERMIONE: Hello, Fred.
-Can I get you anything?

11
00:00:23,732 --> 00:00:25,233
-A job.
-I can't very well have

12
00:00:25,275 --> 00:00:26,861
the wife of Hiram Lodge,

13
00:00:26,902 --> 00:00:28,737
on trial for fraud
and embezzlement,

14
00:00:28,779 --> 00:00:29,989
balancing my books.

15
00:00:30,029 --> 00:00:31,239
Oh, Hiram...

16
00:00:31,281 --> 00:00:33,868
Oh, my God, it's Jason.
He was shot.

17
00:00:33,909 --> 00:00:36,453
What were you doing
down at the river so early
on July 4th?

18
00:00:36,495 --> 00:00:38,205
-Working on some songs.
-SHERIFF KELLER:
Were you alone?

19
00:00:38,246 --> 00:00:40,040
DILTON:  I saw something
at Sweetwater River.

20
00:00:40,081 --> 00:00:41,375
Ms. Grundy's car.

21
00:00:41,416 --> 00:00:42,626
By the river's edge.

22
00:00:46,463 --> 00:00:49,758
JUGHEAD:  It's been
a week since the discovery
of Jason Blossom's body.

23
00:00:52,678 --> 00:00:54,429
But his death
is not the first,

24
00:00:54,471 --> 00:00:56,181
nor would it be
the last casualty

25
00:00:56,223 --> 00:00:58,559
that the town of
Riverdale would suffer.

26
00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:00,978
The Twilight Drive-In
where I work,

27
00:01:01,020 --> 00:01:02,479
my home away from home,

28
00:01:02,521 --> 00:01:05,649
a piece of town history,
is closing for good,

29
00:01:05,691 --> 00:01:08,652
just when we needed
a place to escape to the most.

30
00:01:08,694 --> 00:01:10,779
With Sheriff Keller
knocking on every door

31
00:01:10,821 --> 00:01:12,907
and neighbor
suspecting neighbor,

32
00:01:12,948 --> 00:01:15,450
Riverdale, every day
that passes, is becoming

33
00:01:15,492 --> 00:01:18,412
more like Salem
during the witch trials.

34
00:01:18,453 --> 00:01:20,414
And meanwhile,
the girl next door,

35
00:01:20,455 --> 00:01:24,209
our friendly neighborhood
Hitchcock blonde,
Betty Cooper,

36
00:01:24,251 --> 00:01:25,586
was wrestling
with the knowledge

37
00:01:25,627 --> 00:01:27,504
that her best friend,
Archie Andrews,

38
00:01:27,546 --> 00:01:30,131
was caught up in
a forbidden romance.

39
00:01:31,090 --> 00:01:32,593
BETTY:  "Dear Diary,

40
00:01:32,634 --> 00:01:34,595
"Sheriff Keller doesn't
know what I know,

41
00:01:34,636 --> 00:01:37,765
"that Riverdale High's
music teacher,
Geraldine Grundy,

42
00:01:37,806 --> 00:01:41,393
"was at Sweetwater River
the morning
Jason Blossom went missing,

43
00:01:41,435 --> 00:01:44,229
"and that since Archie
was also there,

44
00:01:44,271 --> 00:01:46,899
"they could have
been there together."

45
00:01:46,941 --> 00:01:48,191
(CELLO PLAYING)

46
00:01:48,233 --> 00:01:50,277
(SOFTLY) She is incredible.

47
00:01:52,112 --> 00:01:53,321
She's the best.

48
00:02:04,416 --> 00:02:07,795
I'm usually more
of a classic rock kind of guy,

49
00:02:07,836 --> 00:02:09,463
but that was beautiful.

50
00:02:10,005 --> 00:02:11,381
Truly.

51
00:02:11,423 --> 00:02:13,216
Congratulations, Ms. Grundy.

52
00:02:14,301 --> 00:02:15,343
Thank you,

53
00:02:15,385 --> 00:02:16,762
both of you for coming.

54
00:02:16,804 --> 00:02:18,639
No, you kidding?
Archie, he wouldn't miss it.

55
00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:21,141
I had to beg him
to let me come.

56
00:02:21,182 --> 00:02:22,893
Great. I'll see you
at school, Ms. Grundy.

57
00:02:22,935 --> 00:02:24,144
Let's go, Dad.

58
00:02:24,185 --> 00:02:25,479
Well, I was thinkin' that,
you know,

59
00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:26,814
if you're gonna
be alone tonight,

60
00:02:26,855 --> 00:02:28,816
that we could take you
out to dinner.

61
00:02:30,109 --> 00:02:31,485
Oh. No, I...

62
00:02:32,193 --> 00:02:33,737
No, I couldn't impose.

63
00:02:33,779 --> 00:02:36,824
(CHUCKLES) After everything
you've done for my son, I...

64
00:02:36,865 --> 00:02:37,866
You know, with his music,

65
00:02:37,908 --> 00:02:39,868
it's the least
I can do. I insist.

66
00:02:45,332 --> 00:02:47,001
JUGHEAD:
The Drive-In closing

67
00:02:47,042 --> 00:02:49,461
is just one more
nail in the coffin
that is Riverdale...

68
00:02:49,503 --> 00:02:50,712
No, forget Riverdale,

69
00:02:50,754 --> 00:02:52,547
in the coffin of
the American dream.

70
00:02:52,589 --> 00:02:54,424
(STAMMERING)
As the godfather of
indie cinema,

71
00:02:54,466 --> 00:02:56,010
Quentin Tarantino,
likes to say...

72
00:02:56,051 --> 00:02:57,344
Please, God,

73
00:02:57,385 --> 00:02:59,262
no more
Quentin Tarantino references.

74
00:03:00,221 --> 00:03:02,265
What? I'm pissed.

75
00:03:02,307 --> 00:03:04,267
And not just
about losing my job.

76
00:03:04,309 --> 00:03:07,354
The Twilight Drive-In
should mean
something to us.

77
00:03:07,395 --> 00:03:08,856
People should be
trying to save it.

78
00:03:08,897 --> 00:03:11,984
In this age of Netflix
and VOD,

79
00:03:12,026 --> 00:03:15,029
do people
really want to watch
a movie in a car?

80
00:03:15,070 --> 00:03:17,072
I mean, who even goes there?

81
00:03:17,114 --> 00:03:18,365
People who
want to buy crack.

82
00:03:18,406 --> 00:03:20,199
And cinephiles,

83
00:03:20,241 --> 00:03:21,743
and car enthusiasts.

84
00:03:21,785 --> 00:03:22,828
Right, Bets?

85
00:03:24,203 --> 00:03:25,831
Totally.

86
00:03:25,873 --> 00:03:27,206
JUGHEAD:
Anyway, it's closing

87
00:03:27,248 --> 00:03:28,416
because the town owns it,

88
00:03:28,458 --> 00:03:30,335
but didn't invest in it.

89
00:03:30,377 --> 00:03:31,795
So when an anonymous buyer

90
00:03:31,837 --> 00:03:34,048
made Mayor McCoy an offer,
she couldn't refuse...

91
00:03:34,089 --> 00:03:35,883
Anonymous buyer?

92
00:03:35,924 --> 00:03:37,759
What do they
have to hide?
No one cares.

93
00:03:37,801 --> 00:03:39,678
I do!

94
00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:41,889
Also, you guys should
all come to closing night.

95
00:03:41,930 --> 00:03:43,015
I'm thinking

96
00:03:43,057 --> 00:03:44,307
American Graffiti...

97
00:03:45,225 --> 00:03:46,560
Or is that
too obvious?

98
00:03:46,601 --> 00:03:48,896
I vote for anything
starring Audrey Hepburn.

99
00:03:48,937 --> 00:03:49,855
Or Cate Blanchett.

100
00:03:49,897 --> 00:03:52,315
Or  The Talented Mr. Ripley.

101
00:03:52,983 --> 00:03:54,442
Betty, your choices?

102
00:03:56,611 --> 00:03:57,612
Everything okay, B?

103
00:03:57,654 --> 00:04:00,782
Yeah, I'm just thinking. Um...

104
00:04:00,824 --> 00:04:03,869
Maybe
Rebel Without a Cause?

105
00:04:05,453 --> 00:04:06,580
(BOTH SNICKER)

106
00:04:06,621 --> 00:04:07,831
HERMIONE: Here you go, kids.

107
00:04:09,290 --> 00:04:10,751
Thanks, Mom.

108
00:04:10,792 --> 00:04:12,377
If I would have known
Mama Lodge was working

109
00:04:12,419 --> 00:04:14,088
as a waitress at Pop's,

110
00:04:14,129 --> 00:04:16,131
I never would have
given Veronica
a spot on the Vixens.

111
00:04:16,173 --> 00:04:18,508
It's off-brand,
and sends a false message
about acceptance.

112
00:04:18,550 --> 00:04:20,385
After her TMZ-style
take-down of Chuck,

113
00:04:20,427 --> 00:04:22,179
all the Vixens kind of
like Veronica now.

114
00:04:22,221 --> 00:04:23,430
Do they?

115
00:04:25,432 --> 00:04:27,684
Be sure to put
all that cash
in the register.

116
00:04:27,726 --> 00:04:29,811
You are a Lodge, after all,

117
00:04:29,853 --> 00:04:32,522
and Lodges are known
to have sticky fingers.

118
00:04:32,564 --> 00:04:34,942
-Cheryl...
-Honey, I got this.

119
00:04:34,983 --> 00:04:37,069
Cheryl, I went to school
with your mother.

120
00:04:37,111 --> 00:04:38,653
She didn't know the difference
between having money

121
00:04:38,695 --> 00:04:40,072
and having class, either.

122
00:04:46,327 --> 00:04:48,455
(DOOR BELL CHIMING)

123
00:04:48,496 --> 00:04:50,373
Now, that's an odd
combo of people.

124
00:04:55,003 --> 00:04:56,546
-I'll be right back.
-No, Betty.

125
00:04:56,588 --> 00:04:57,881
JUGHEAD: No. Don't...

126
00:04:57,923 --> 00:04:59,382
Wait, what's happening?

127
00:05:04,096 --> 00:05:05,139
Hey, Betty.

128
00:05:05,180 --> 00:05:06,389
Hi, Mr. Andrews,

129
00:05:06,431 --> 00:05:07,557
Ms. Grundy.

130
00:05:07,599 --> 00:05:09,017
Archie, can I talk to you?

131
00:05:09,059 --> 00:05:10,351
Sure. I'll call you later?

132
00:05:10,393 --> 00:05:11,603
BETTY: No. Actually, now.

133
00:05:11,645 --> 00:05:13,688
Just school stuff. Outside?

134
00:05:21,071 --> 00:05:22,697
Archie, as your best friend,

135
00:05:22,739 --> 00:05:25,075
is there anything
you want to tell me?

136
00:05:26,118 --> 00:05:27,161
I don't think so.

137
00:05:27,202 --> 00:05:28,829
(SIGHS)

138
00:05:28,870 --> 00:05:31,414
Ms. Grundy was at
Sweetwater River on July 4th.

139
00:05:34,375 --> 00:05:35,627
Were you with her?

140
00:05:37,712 --> 00:05:38,880
Did Jughead tell you?

141
00:05:39,756 --> 00:05:42,425
Jughead knows about this?

142
00:05:42,467 --> 00:05:44,719
What's happening out there?
Do we know? Is it about me?

143
00:05:45,386 --> 00:05:47,055
I have a strong inkling,

144
00:05:47,097 --> 00:05:48,431
and no.

145
00:05:48,473 --> 00:05:49,850
Also, I'd let it go.

146
00:05:49,891 --> 00:05:52,019
Yes, but you're you,
and I'm me.

147
00:05:52,060 --> 00:05:54,395
You do you, girl,
I'll be back.

148
00:05:57,107 --> 00:05:58,984
What was it like
before she got here?

149
00:06:00,861 --> 00:06:03,197
I honestly cannot remember.

150
00:06:03,238 --> 00:06:04,447
It's not what you're thinking.

151
00:06:04,489 --> 00:06:05,740
So, it's platonic?

152
00:06:06,867 --> 00:06:08,367
Okay, well, maybe
it's a little like

153
00:06:08,409 --> 00:06:09,536
-what you're thinking...
-Archie.

154
00:06:09,577 --> 00:06:12,998
Are you and Ms. Grundy,
like, together,

155
00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:14,373
like, romantically?

156
00:06:14,415 --> 00:06:15,709
Oh, my God.

157
00:06:15,750 --> 00:06:17,044
You and your music teacher

158
00:06:17,085 --> 00:06:18,086
are having an affair?

159
00:06:18,128 --> 00:06:20,214
We are...

160
00:06:20,255 --> 00:06:22,590
together. Look,
I know that sounds bad, but...

161
00:06:22,632 --> 00:06:23,633
VERONICA: Bad?

162
00:06:23,675 --> 00:06:25,135
It sounds scandalous.

163
00:06:25,177 --> 00:06:27,470
It sounds like
jail time to me. Illegal!

-Betty, don't go there.
-Oh, I'm already there.

to you, anyway,

-(SIGHS)
-Your booty tutor?

172
00:06:40,399 --> 00:06:41,902
I don't know,
I don't know
what to call her.

173
00:06:41,943 --> 00:06:44,403
You said you were
at the river alone.

174
00:06:44,445 --> 00:06:46,240
You lied to Sheriff Keller,

175
00:06:46,281 --> 00:06:47,406

to Riverdale from?

What's next, selling
her hair extensions?

273
00:10:58,325 --> 00:11:01,161
My mom's a waitress,
Cheryl, not Fantine.

274
00:11:01,202 --> 00:11:04,414
And your faux concern
reeks of ulterior motive.
What is it?

282
00:11:17,511 --> 00:11:19,095
with my mom
being a waitress?

283
00:11:19,137 --> 00:11:20,347

heated, intimate discussion.

Who or what is
a Southside Serpent?

289
00:11:37,238 --> 00:11:38,657
They're this
gang of bikers

290
00:11:38,697 --> 00:11:40,408
who pretty much stays
on the south side of town.

291
00:11:40,450 --> 00:11:42,369
And thank God, 'cause
they're sort of dangerous.

292
00:11:42,410 --> 00:11:44,454
Drug dealers
and petty thieves.

293
00:11:44,496 --> 00:11:47,207
Then what was my mom
doing with one of them?

294
00:11:50,460 --> 00:11:51,670

-Mom.
-Hmm?

298
00:11:58,759 --> 00:12:01,095

behind Pop's

Those guys are thugs.
What were you doing?

302
00:12:11,314 --> 00:12:13,608
First off, you have
nothing to worry about.

303
00:12:15,276 --> 00:12:16,444
Come here, sit.

304
00:12:19,239 --> 00:12:22,200
Now, remember Veronica,
I grew up here.

305
00:12:22,242 --> 00:12:23,410

from the wrong
side of the tracks,

307
00:12:24,952 --> 00:12:26,787
but I went to high school
with some of them.

308
00:12:27,664 --> 00:12:29,249
I was just being polite.

309
00:12:30,458 --> 00:12:32,586

like you were arguing.

(CHUCKLES) Hardly.

and I put him in his place.

-Mom, if you're in some
kind of trouble...
-I'm not.

but the Twilight Drive-In?

and a hangout
for criminals...

319
00:12:59,738 --> 00:13:01,322
(STUTTERING)
and transients,

320
00:13:01,364 --> 00:13:02,699
and the deal's done.

the lot on Monday.

323

Mayor McCoy,

324
00:13:08,413 --> 00:13:09,956
when I was a kid,

325
00:13:09,997 --> 00:13:13,418
my family and I would go
to the drive-in all the time.

326
00:13:13,460 --> 00:13:15,086
We couldn't afford
tickets for everyone,

327
00:13:15,128 --> 00:13:18,214
so my sister
Jellybean and I would
hide in the trunk

328
00:13:18,256 --> 00:13:20,634
until we parked.
We'd sneak out.

329
00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:22,927
(CHUCKLES SOFTLY)

330
00:13:22,969 --> 00:13:24,178
It's like my home.

331
00:13:25,930 --> 00:13:28,767
That's a very sweet
sentiment, Mr. Jones.

332
00:13:30,518 --> 00:13:32,687
But the future of
Riverdale is at stake.

333
00:13:34,897 --> 00:13:37,150
Ms. Grundy showed up
in Riverdale a year ago,

334
00:13:37,191 --> 00:13:38,443
out of thin air.

335
00:13:38,485 --> 00:13:40,819
There's no record
of her before that.

336
00:13:40,861 --> 00:13:42,489
Her Facebook,
her LinkedIn account,

337
00:13:42,530 --> 00:13:45,074
they were all created
one year ago.

338
00:13:45,116 --> 00:13:46,242
Before that, she's a ghost.

339
00:13:46,284 --> 00:13:48,495
She doesn't exist.

340
00:13:48,536 --> 00:13:50,079
The only Geraldine Grundy
I could find was

341
00:13:50,121 --> 00:13:52,206
a woman who died
seven years ago.

342
00:13:53,374 --> 00:13:55,335
How... Where did you
find all this?

343
00:13:55,376 --> 00:13:56,961
The deep web.

344
00:13:57,003 --> 00:13:58,672
The dark internet.

345
00:13:58,713 --> 00:14:01,591
Check it, it's all online.
Simple googling.

346
00:14:01,633 --> 00:14:03,884
And did you cyber-stalk
Ms. Grundy before

347
00:14:03,926 --> 00:14:04,969
or after you interviewed her

348
00:14:05,011 --> 00:14:06,346
for a fake article?

349
00:14:07,681 --> 00:14:09,140
Why are you doing this, Betty?

350
00:14:09,182 --> 00:14:10,933
-I'm not in any danger.
-You don't know that.

351
00:14:10,975 --> 00:14:13,019
Yeah, I do,
I'm with her.

352
00:14:13,060 --> 00:14:14,853
I know
what we have,

353
00:14:14,895 --> 00:14:15,896
and you don't.

354
00:14:17,064 --> 00:14:19,066
She taught Jason Blossom.

355
00:14:19,108 --> 00:14:21,152
-Did you know that?
-She's taught a lot of people,
Betty. What's your point?

356
00:14:21,194 --> 00:14:22,362
My point is,

357
00:14:22,403 --> 00:14:24,197
you don't know anything
about her, Archie.

358
00:14:24,238 --> 00:14:26,366
-Doesn't that worry you?
-Betty, let this go.

359
00:14:26,407 --> 00:14:28,451
-Archie, please...
-If you're really my friend,

360
00:14:28,493 --> 00:14:29,828
you'll let this go.

361
00:14:31,287 --> 00:14:32,497
Okay.

362
00:14:34,081 --> 00:14:35,625
I'm sorry. I'm done.

363
00:14:36,959 --> 00:14:38,294
I'll stop digging.

364
00:14:39,838 --> 00:14:41,047
ARCHIE: I know
it's not the drive-in,

365
00:14:41,088 --> 00:14:43,216
but given our circumstances...

366
00:14:43,257 --> 00:14:44,592
It's perfect.

367
00:14:46,803 --> 00:14:48,179
Is everything okay?

368
00:14:49,597 --> 00:14:52,600
We've always been
so focused on me,

369
00:14:52,642 --> 00:14:55,311
my music, we never
get to talk about
you and your life.

370
00:14:57,564 --> 00:14:59,982
-What do you wanna know?
-I dunno.

371
00:15:00,024 --> 00:15:01,484
Stuff.

372
00:15:01,526 --> 00:15:04,028
Anything. Have you always
wanted to be a teacher?

373
00:15:04,070 --> 00:15:05,655
No. (LAUGHS)

374
00:15:05,697 --> 00:15:06,781
No, I, um...

375
00:15:07,906 --> 00:15:09,784
I graduated Juilliard,

376
00:15:09,826 --> 00:15:11,703
and I auditioned
at Carnegie Hall,

377
00:15:11,745 --> 00:15:14,247
Lincoln Center,
all the big symphonies,

378
00:15:14,288 --> 00:15:16,040
but I didn't

379
00:15:16,082 --> 00:15:17,876
make the cut.
Not even close.

380
00:15:19,126 --> 00:15:23,423
I had a dream. But...

381
00:15:24,340 --> 00:15:26,300
Sometimes that's all they are.

382
00:15:27,218 --> 00:15:28,469
Just dreams.

383
00:15:30,054 --> 00:15:31,305
And what about us?

384
00:15:33,099 --> 00:15:34,559
Is this a dream?

385
00:15:34,601 --> 00:15:35,935
Would that be so bad?

386
00:15:37,228 --> 00:15:38,479
If it is...

387
00:15:40,815 --> 00:15:42,483
It's a nice dream.

388
00:15:42,525 --> 00:15:44,444
Where does
this end, Geraldine?

389
00:15:48,114 --> 00:15:49,323
I have no idea.

390
00:15:50,116 --> 00:15:51,534
But we're here.

391
00:15:52,493 --> 00:15:54,287
And for me...

392
00:15:56,497 --> 00:15:57,707
That's enough.

393
00:16:06,006 --> 00:16:07,592
So much for
letting this go.

394
00:16:11,679 --> 00:16:14,599
Are we really breaking
into Grundy's car right now?

395
00:16:15,809 --> 00:16:17,393
How do you even know
how to do that?

396
00:16:17,435 --> 00:16:19,771
(LAUGHS) My dad and I
fix cars together.

397
00:16:19,813 --> 00:16:22,857
Thank God,
she drives an old...

398
00:16:33,785 --> 00:16:35,662
Okay, before
going any further,

399
00:16:35,703 --> 00:16:36,913
if I'm committing a felony,

400
00:16:36,955 --> 00:16:39,081
I need to at least
ask the question.

401
00:16:39,123 --> 00:16:41,835
Are you doing this
because you still have
feelings for Archie, or...

402
00:16:41,876 --> 00:16:43,294
No, Veronica.

403
00:16:43,336 --> 00:16:44,838
We're doing this because
Grundy has Archie

404
00:16:44,879 --> 00:16:47,340
under some kind of
sexual spell,

405
00:16:47,381 --> 00:16:49,467
and he won't listen to reason.

406
00:16:49,509 --> 00:16:52,052
We're looking for anything
that proves Grundy isn't
as clean as she says she is.

407
00:16:58,935 --> 00:16:59,936
Bobby pin.

408
00:17:00,979 --> 00:17:02,062
Okay, Ms. Gyver.

409
00:17:11,322 --> 00:17:12,740
I learned that
from the  Nancy Drew

410
00:17:12,782 --> 00:17:14,659
-detective handbook.
-Okay, go.

411
00:17:21,415 --> 00:17:22,959
BETTY: (WHISPERING)
Oh, my God.

412
00:17:23,001 --> 00:17:24,585
VERONICA: Oh, my God.

413
00:17:25,962 --> 00:17:27,421
"Jennifer Gibson"?

414
00:17:27,463 --> 00:17:29,423
Who the hell is
Jennifer Gibson?

415
00:17:31,634 --> 00:17:33,386
That's not the only thing.

416
00:17:46,733 --> 00:17:47,775
Oh, God.

417
00:17:50,028 --> 00:17:52,697
Please don't tell me
you're still on
this crazy witch hunt.

418
00:17:52,739 --> 00:17:55,658
It's not a witch hunt,
and it's not crazy.

419
00:17:57,785 --> 00:18:00,454
-We were just in
Grundy's car...
-What?

420
00:18:00,496 --> 00:18:01,664
-You were in her car?
-VERONICA: Yeah,

421
00:18:01,706 --> 00:18:03,081
and thank God we were.

422
00:18:03,123 --> 00:18:04,709
-We found a gun.
-What?

423
00:18:04,751 --> 00:18:07,420
And an ID with
the name Jennifer Gibson.

424
00:18:07,461 --> 00:18:10,590
This is proof
Ms. Grundy is not
who she says she is.

425
00:18:10,631 --> 00:18:14,552
-Then who is she?
-Obviously some sketch-queen
named Jennifer Gibson.

426
00:18:14,594 --> 00:18:16,345
Archie, what if
she had something to do

427
00:18:16,387 --> 00:18:17,972
with Jason's murder?

428
00:18:18,014 --> 00:18:20,099
She taught him,
she made you lie about him,

429
00:18:20,140 --> 00:18:22,142
we know she was
at the river, she has a gun.

430
00:18:22,184 --> 00:18:24,938
So does Dilton Doiley,
but you never thought
he killed Jason.

431
00:18:24,979 --> 00:18:25,939
Open your eyes, Archie.

432
00:18:25,980 --> 00:18:27,941
Jason was her
student last year.

433
00:18:27,982 --> 00:18:30,777
Everything about her
is a huge, boldfaced
question mark.

434
00:18:30,818 --> 00:18:32,653
Okay, whatever her name is,
she's not a killer.

435
00:18:32,695 --> 00:18:34,447
You didn't ask her, did you?

436
00:18:34,488 --> 00:18:35,949
About her name?

437
00:18:35,990 --> 00:18:38,743
And why there's no record
of her before last year?

438
00:18:39,619 --> 00:18:41,662
-(SIGHS)
-Why not?

439
00:18:53,132 --> 00:18:55,134
Mayor McCoy says
you won the contract

440
00:18:55,175 --> 00:18:56,761
to tear down the drive-in.

441
00:18:58,387 --> 00:18:59,639
I did.

442
00:19:00,473 --> 00:19:02,224
Look, I'm sorry, Jughead.

443
00:19:02,266 --> 00:19:05,519
I know how much
you love the Twilight,
and so do I...

444
00:19:05,561 --> 00:19:07,396
Mr. Andrews,
just give me one week

445
00:19:07,438 --> 00:19:09,816
to track down
the person who bought
the land, and convince them

446
00:19:09,857 --> 00:19:11,734
not to demolish
a holy house of cinema.

447
00:19:11,776 --> 00:19:13,319
It's a big contract
for me, Jug,

448
00:19:13,360 --> 00:19:15,279
and for my guys.

449
00:19:15,321 --> 00:19:17,323
Whatever they build
in the place of the drive-in

450
00:19:17,364 --> 00:19:19,784
-could mean more jobs...
-Yeah, in what?
Some hypothetical future?

451
00:19:21,535 --> 00:19:23,412
You put one Jones out of work,

452
00:19:23,454 --> 00:19:24,956
why don't you put out
another, huh?

453
00:19:24,998 --> 00:19:27,458
Jug, your dad was
taking materials

454
00:19:27,500 --> 00:19:28,668
from one of our job sites.

455
00:19:28,709 --> 00:19:30,210
I had to let him go.

456
00:19:30,252 --> 00:19:32,171
Right.

457
00:19:32,212 --> 00:19:33,673
You did what you had to do,

458
00:19:33,714 --> 00:19:35,215
like you're doing here now.

459
00:19:36,050 --> 00:19:37,426
(SCOFFS) Later.

460
00:19:37,468 --> 00:19:39,012

You're late, Hermione.

00:19:43,474 --> 00:19:45,101
I had to make a pit stop.

464

And as we discussed,
Madam Mayor...

465
00:19:47,561 --> 00:19:49,897
A donation to your
re-election campaign.

466

And Lodge Industries
gets the Twilight Drive-In.

Is your real name
Jennifer Gibson?

477
00:20:47,329 --> 00:20:48,748
Who are you?

478
00:20:48,789 --> 00:20:50,083
And what are you
really doing here?

479
00:20:50,124 --> 00:20:51,625

Tell me the truth, please.

I

483
00:21:05,556 --> 00:21:07,100
was in a bad relationship.

484
00:21:08,184 --> 00:21:11,020
A relationship...
I was married

485
00:21:11,062 --> 00:21:13,272
to a man who would come home

486
00:21:13,313 --> 00:21:15,399
from work every night, late,

487
00:21:15,441 --> 00:21:17,735
and drunk, and with a temper.

488
00:21:17,777 --> 00:21:19,361
One night, I ended up

489
00:21:19,403 --> 00:21:20,613
in the emergency room

490
00:21:20,654 --> 00:21:25,409
with broken ribs and
a shattered collarbone.

491
00:21:25,451 --> 00:21:28,121
The next morning, he barely
even remembered the fight,

492
00:21:28,162 --> 00:21:29,455
and he promised

493
00:21:29,496 --> 00:21:31,165
that it wouldn't
happen again.

494
00:21:32,291 --> 00:21:33,292
But...

495
00:21:34,168 --> 00:21:35,169
It did,

496
00:21:35,711 --> 00:21:36,921
again.

497
00:21:37,421 --> 00:21:38,631
So...

498
00:21:39,590 --> 00:21:40,800
I left.

00:21:42,135 --> 00:21:43,136

00:21:46,513 --> 00:21:47,807
changed my name...

00:32:20,980 --> 00:32:23,983
I thought the one thing
that we could keep
our Riverdale safe from

702
00:32:24,025 --> 00:32:25,444
was child predators.

703
00:32:25,485 --> 00:32:27,654
Ms. Grundy's not a predator.
She's a good person

704
00:32:27,696 --> 00:32:29,114
Archie, you don't
have to defend me.

705
00:32:29,155 --> 00:32:30,240
No, he doesn't.

706
00:32:30,282 --> 00:32:31,450
Well,

707
00:32:31,491 --> 00:32:32,868
they're not
denying it, are they?

708
00:32:32,910 --> 00:32:34,411
They're clearly guilty.
I think the next step is

709
00:32:34,453 --> 00:32:35,871
we take this
to Sheriff Keller,

710
00:32:35,913 --> 00:32:38,164
and let the wheels
of justice take over.

711
00:32:38,206 --> 00:32:39,792
Dad, you can't
let that happen.

712
00:32:39,833 --> 00:32:42,043
-Son, it's complicated.
-She didn't force me
to do anything,

713
00:32:42,085 --> 00:32:43,503
I went after her.

714
00:32:43,545 --> 00:32:45,255
Everything that happened,
I wanted it to happen.

715
00:32:45,297 --> 00:32:46,632
There's no surprise there.

716
00:32:46,673 --> 00:32:48,383
Why are you
doing this, Mom?

717
00:32:48,425 --> 00:32:50,135
Putting Ms. Grundy on trial?

718
00:32:50,176 --> 00:32:51,678
This isn't just about her.

719
00:32:52,429 --> 00:32:54,598
This is about him.

720
00:32:54,640 --> 00:32:56,809
I want you see
what kind of person

721
00:32:56,850 --> 00:32:58,017
Archie truly is.

722
00:32:58,059 --> 00:32:59,645
Wait a minute, that is
what this is about?

723
00:32:59,686 --> 00:33:02,105
Your crazy grudge
against my teenage son?

724
00:33:02,147 --> 00:33:05,358
I'm never going to stop being
friends with Archie, Mom.

-Ever.
-FRED: We are done here.

726

from being done here.
-Stop.

-Stop!

728

729
00:33:12,658 --> 00:33:14,075
You're right, Mrs. Cooper.

730
00:33:14,117 --> 00:33:15,744
You're right. I'm selfish,

731
00:33:15,786 --> 00:33:17,830
and I'm stupid, and
I don't deserve to be

732
00:33:17,871 --> 00:33:19,498
your daughter's friend.

733
00:33:19,539 --> 00:33:21,333
But please,
don't hurt Ms. Grundy

734
00:33:21,374 --> 00:33:22,668
because you wanna hurt me.

735
00:33:23,710 --> 00:33:26,546
This isn't about
hurting anyone, Archie.

736
00:33:27,840 --> 00:33:30,342
It's about
doing what's right,

737

informing our neighbors.

-Publish one word
about this, Mom,

740
00:33:35,806 --> 00:33:38,851
and I will tell everyone that
I broke into Ms. Grundy's car.

-Betty...
-That I robbed her,

742

the story of their affair.

-MS. GRUNDY: I'll quit.

750
00:34:03,458 --> 00:34:06,169
I'll quit my job.
Will that satisfy you?

751

Yeah, it will. It has to.

752
00:34:07,921 --> 00:34:10,465

would dare, Mom.

that Serpent.

767

And don't tell me
you were just being polite.

768
00:35:42,181 --> 00:35:44,810
I was handling some
unfinished business
for your father.

769
00:35:44,851 --> 00:35:46,853
I'm gonna need
more than that, Mom.

specifics.

772
00:35:51,691 --> 00:35:52,943
All right, then.

773
00:35:54,861 --> 00:35:58,740
Your father hired
the Southside Serpents

774
00:35:58,782 --> 00:36:02,494
to help decrease the value
of the drive-in's land

775
00:36:02,535 --> 00:36:04,203
so he could purchase it
at a cheaper price

776
00:36:04,245 --> 00:36:05,872
using an offshore LLC.

777
00:36:06,915 --> 00:36:08,667
What you saw was
me paying them

778
00:36:08,708 --> 00:36:10,335
for a job well done.

779
00:36:10,376 --> 00:36:11,544
So...

780
00:36:12,712 --> 00:36:14,172
Daddy's the anonymous buyer?

781
00:36:15,590 --> 00:36:17,926
And he's doing this from jail?

782
00:36:17,968 --> 00:36:20,178
He has an extremely
long reach, your father.

783
00:36:20,219 --> 00:36:23,682
And he's sunk every last penny
that we have into this deal.

784
00:36:24,349 --> 00:36:25,558
So...

785
00:36:26,059 --> 00:36:27,352
