Jughead's Voiceover
Every fairy tale comes with the same warning: Good children should never go into the woods alone.Stray from the path and who knows what you'll encounter.A hungry wolf.A handsome devil.Or maybe something worse.

On the football field

players chattering
Archie says to Reggie "Hey,Captain.Are we gonna start or what? We supposed to play in 10 minutes.Where's Coach Clayton?"
Reggie says to Archie "At the hospital with Moose and Midge."
Archie says to Reggie "What?"
Archie says to the Bulldogs "Hey,guys!"
The Bulldogs walk over to Reggie Mantle and Archie Andrews
Reggie says to Archie "I only know what coach told me. Moose got shot multiple times by some lunatic at Lovers's Lane."
Archie says to Reggie "Oh,my God--is he..."
Reggie says to Archie "No,Arch,he's alive.So's Midge.He,like,shielded her with his body.She didn't get hit.Practice is canceled."
In School Hallway
Ethel says to Police "You don't think they're targeting students,do you? Should we be worried? Like,what's going on?"
In Students Lounge
Keller says to Beronica and Jughead "It was full-on Carrie.Midge covered in Moose's blood, screaming like a banshee.It was insane."
Archie says to Kevin "Kev,what were you even doing there?"
Kevin says to Archie "I was just night-jogging,you know,as one does,and suddenly,I hear gunshots."
Archie sits down
Archie says to the gang "Can we agree there's a killer on the loose?"
Jughead says to Archie "With terrible aim."
Archie says to Jughead "Jughead,he murdered Ms. Grundy."
Betty says to Archie "Arch,we don't know these three crimes are related."
Veronica says to the gang "Guys,can we focus on what matters here? Midge and Moose are alive.Archie's dad survived.The new season of the Matchlerette starts tonight.You're coming over to watch."
Jughead says to Veronica "There's a shooter terrorising the town. You really want us to watch a gross dating reality show?"
Veronica says to the gang "What I want is for you guys to meet my dad officially.Back in New York,my dad was always in his study,doing bad things, as it turns out.I'm tired of closed doors.I need to know my dad's life and he needs to know mine. "
Betty says to Veronica "Well,we'll be there,V. Can't wait."
Veronica says to Betty "Thank you."

Kevin says to Betty "Yeah.I'm trying to get in shape for wrestling.Okay,fine,I was cruising Fox Forest.I'm going out for wrestling.I had to tell my dad I was jogging."
Betty says to Kevin "He believed you?"
Kevin says to Betty "Yeah.Cause he wants to believe me.Hey,look,I get it,you're post-Joaquin, but cruising?"Betty says to Kevin "Come on,Kev,you know I hate that.Why can't you use Grind'em like every other gay guy in the world?"
Kevin says to Betty "Nobody's who they say they are online.In least real life,what you see is what you get." Betty says to Kevin "Moose and Midge were shot literally 300 yards from Fox Forest, and the person who did it is still out there. Tell me you won't go back least not until he's caught." Kevin says to Betty "Okay,fine.I will not go back.Scout's honour."
bell rings
In Moose's Hospital Room
Moose says to Archie "If I wasn't such a big slab of beef,Midge might've been hit too."
Archie says to Moose "You saved her life,bro."
Reggie says to Moose "Your nurse is hot.What if you pop a boner during a sponge bath?"
Archie says to Moose "And it wasn't a ski mask?He was wearing a black hood for sure? Anything else you remember about how he looked?"
Moose says to Archie "His eyes."
Archie says to Moose "They're green,right?"
Midge says to Archie (Upset) "They were blank. Like there wasn't a person behind them.He was like Michael Myers.He had the devil's eyes."

I was supposed to give you the full animatronic tour, but some robots went insane and started killing the guests,so,we'll just wing it."
On the stairs
Toni and Jughead walking downstairs
Toni says to Jughead "Classrooms don't have Wi-Fi,bathroom stalls don't have doors."
Jughead says to Toni "What about the school paper Red and Black?"
Toni says to Jughead "Yeah,it no longer exists. Censorship? Budget cuts? Take your pick."
In School Hallway
Toni says to Jughead "To your right you'll find a glimpse of jingle-jangle being consumed in it's natural habitat."
Jughead says to Toni "I'm sorry, jingle-jangle?"

In Southside High Cafeteria
Toni says to Jughead "Here in the cafetorium,Ghoulies sit over there.Rival gang,drug dealers, street racers,rumors of cannibalism.Don't ask. And we sit over there.With the Serpents."
Jughead says to Toni "You're a Southside Serpent?"
Toni says to Jughead "Why do you think that I volunteered to give you the tour? Come on."
Jughead says to Toni "Actually,I'm gonna sit alone.Just,you know,finish my book and brood."
Toni says to Jughead "I'm confused.
Aren't you like a Serpent by blood? The son of FP Jones?"
Jughead says to Toni "Yeah.So,I self-identify as a loner,not a pack animal.I'm just gonna put my head down and try and get through this,okay?"
Jughead about to walk away
Toni says to Jughead "Hey,you wanna get through this,you should hang with the Serpents. If the Ghoulies get a whiff that you're alone,and vulnerable they'll make you their bitch faster than you can say American History X."
Toni walks away from Jughead
In Andrews house kitchen
Archie says to Fred "Moose and Midge described him.Same guy that shot you, same hood, eyes."
Fred says to Archie "Well, maybe and maybe not." Archie says to Fred "Dad, it's him.If Sheriff Keller's not gonna take that seriously,I think we should...be ready.Like, maybe we should buy a gun,just be armed in case..."
Fred looks shocked
Fred says to Archie (Shocked) "Whoa, whoa, whoa.Easy,okay? Ease up on that.We're gonna let the cops do their job."
Archie puts his head down and Archie puts his head back up
Fred says to Archie "Armed?What the hell are you talking about? Archie, this is not the Wild West. We don't keep guns in this house.Okay? So, just cool it. "
In Pembroke Living Room/Dining Room
Veronica says to Archie "Why don't you sit down next to me,loverboy Archie?"
Jughead grabs the bowl of Popcorn

Veronica says to Archie "Inside voices, please?"
Jughead eating popcorn
Jughead says to Veronica "No, don't stop him.Archie going Travis Bickle is my favorite Archie yet."
Archie says to Bughead and Veronica "Doesn't it feel like he's targeting us? I mean,specifically?I don't want anyone else getting hurt."
Veronica says to Archie "Back in the sello days.When we had a getaway on the Cape, all of us got together and hired private security to keep out the riffraff as an added layer of protection."
Hiram and Hermione walks in
Hiram says to Veronica "I loved that house."
Veronica says to Hiram "Daddy."
Hermione says to Veronica "We're on our way to dinner at the club."

Jughead says to Hiram "Hi."
Hiram says to Jughead "Hey."

Veronica says to Hiram "Daddy."
Archie says to Hiram "Uh,it's nice to meet you, sir." Hiram says to Archie "Ah,please.Call me Hiram."
Hiram slaps Archie's hand
Hiram says to Varchie and Bughead "Listen I couldn't help but overhear your discussion and I, um...I understand your frustration.As for someone who's had his own share of run-ins with the law..."
Hiram chuckles
Hiram says to Varchie and Bughead "I can say that the police aren't always the solution. Sometimes we need to take matters into our own hands.We need to protect ourselves."
Hermione says to Hiram "We're gonna lose our table." Hiram says to Hermione "Oh,yes,of course." Hiram says to Bughead and Archie "Hey, it was nice to meet all of you."
Hiram says to Archie "Oh, and Archie."
