Jughead's voiceover
Know how there are some towns where bad things always seem to happen? Well,Riverdale has become one of those towns.The most recent horror? The school janitor turned out to be a serial killer.But we were putting him away along with our Christmas decorations.Now we were back to your typical small-town intrigues. Clandestine meetings behind closed doors and the like.Yes,by and large,it was business as usual in Riverdale.
In Thistlehouse,Dining Room
Penelope says to Cheryl "Good news,Cheryl.
After last night I've earned nearly enough to pay for that tree and those ludicrous presents you bought yourself."
Cheryl says to Penelope "Bravo.Never mind that the last two weeks,I've been living in a bordello with a...woman of the night."
Penelope says to Cheryl "Well,it's not that different from when I was younger and I had my pick of gentlemen callers lining up every evening." Cheryl says to Penelope "Good God,you almost sound proud."
Penelope says to Cheryl "You wanted me to get a job,Cheryl,and I did.Providing comfort and companionship to the lonely men of Riverdale."
In Veronica's bedroom
Hermione says to Veronica "Veronica,have a minute?" Hiram says to Veronica "Just checking in.See how you're feeling about things."
Veronica says to Hiram and Hermione "Ah. Checking to make sure I'm on board with the plan? Don't worry, I am."
Hermione says to Veronica "You're gonna be at ground zero." Hiram says to Veronica "The eye of the potential hurricane."
Veronica says to Hiram "You said that when I wanted to shop in SoHo during Occupy Wall Street,and I was fine."
Hiram says to Veronica "Uh..."
Veronica says to Hermione and Hiram "Dad, Mom,trust me.I'll keep my classmates from revolting when the news breaks.And they'll be none the wiser."
Hiram nods
Hermione smiles
In Archie's bedroom
Fred says to Archie "Hey,Arch,did you say anything to anybody about my medical bill?
Because it's been paid,all $86,000 of it. Something called an angel donation."
Archie says to Veronica "No.Well,I mean, Veronica,but she wouldn't..."
Archie puts his school bag on
Archie says to Fred "Yeah,I'll ask her."
Fred says to Archie "No.I'll get to the bottom of it.You just focus on school.Haven't seen that guitar for a while." Archie says to Fred "Yeah, well,I've been busy.I spent break writing songs.
I'll start a band like the Fred Heads."
Fred chuckles
Fred says to Archie "If you do,do that in the garage.That's why I soundproofed it for you."
Archie walks out
