In Seven Seasons Room
Sierra says to Josie "Let me tell you something about Veronica's parents and the way they do business."
At Pickens Park
Hiram says to Sierra,Tom and Hermione "Isn't this something the Serpents would do?"
In Hiram's office
Hiram says to Archie "As long as you're dating Veronica, I'm going to demand the best from you.
How would you like to start your business tutelage under my shepherding?"
Jughead's voiceover
It's a classic trope of mob movies.Rich,high-rolling gangster takes small town kid under his wing."
In Pops
Pop Tate says to Archie "Here you go,Archie."Archie says to Pop Tate "Thanks,Pop."
Archie walks out of Pops
Jughead's Voiceover
Small town kid...is ushered into an intoxicating but dangerous life of crime."
In Hiram's office
Hiram says to Poppa "No,Poppa,you don't need to travel with your own chef,we have excellent poutine right here in Riverdale.Because I've tasted it and it's superb."
Hiram snaps his fingers at Archie
Hiram says to Archie "Hey,run this to your dad's trailer?"
Hiram throws something to Archie and Archie catches it
Hiram says to Archie "And then pick up some loafers I had resoled at the Shoe Doctor on Main." Archie says to Hiram "Happy to,Mr. Lodge."
In Fred's office
Fred says to Archie "There he is."
Archie says to Fred "Sorry,Dad."
Archie says to the workers "Sorry,guys."

Archie says to Fred "I've got my bike.And I still gotta pick up his shoes,but I'll see you."
In Pembrooke,Living Room/Dining Room
Archie says to Veronica "Ronnie..."
Hermione says to Terry "That hem's high enough,Terry.It's a confirmation,not a sock-hop."
Veronica says to Archie "Usually,it happens when you're 12 or 13,but my parents wanted the same monsignor who baptised me.Monsignor Murphy, he's a friend of the family, to confirm me,as well." Archie says to Veronica "Wow,so this is a big deal,then?" Veronica says to Archie "It is. Especially to my mom and dad.And,well,my whole family.A lot of them are coming in for it."
Archie says to Veronica "So,do you have to,like memorise stuff?" Veronica says to Archie "During the ceremony,Monsignor will ask me to renounce Satan,which,of course I will.But otherwise,you mostly do things in advance.Like picking a sponsor.I asked my abuelita.And performing charitable works.I'm volunteering at a soup kitchen,if you'd care to join me."
Hiram says to Veronica "There she is."
Veronica stands up
Hiram says to Veronica Let me take a look at you."
Hiram sighs
Hiram says to Veronica "My beautiful daughter, confirmed in front of my family.Our family. Oh, mija, you've made me the happiest and the proudest father alive."
Hiram says to Archie "What do you think,Archie? Isn't she a miracle?"
Veronica spread her dress and back it's position
Archie says to Hiram "She is.She definitely is."
In FP's trailer
Tom Knocking on the door and Jughead opens it
Jughead says to Tom "Sheriff Keller,what a surprise."
Tom walks in with his hands in his pockets
Tom says to Jughead "Jughead."
Tom says to FP "FP."
Tom says to Jughead and FP "Sorry to bother you.It's,uh..."
Tom words get cuts off by Jughead
Jughead says to Tom "We don't have General Pickens head.And we do not know who stole it."
FP says to Tom "Same as the last four times you came by to ask us and our neighbors."
Jughead says to Tom "You know,Sheriff,these visits are starting to feel a lot like harassment.
There's absolutely no evidence,zero proof whatsoever pointing to any particular group of suspects." Tom says to Jughead "Well,you did write a rather scathing article about the General's legacy,which prompted the Southside Serpents to stop by at Pickens Day with an ax to grind."
Jughead says to Tom "I'm actually writing a new article about how you seem to care more about
catching a vandal than the Black Hood.Can I get a quote?"
FP chuckles and Tom nods
In Betty's bedroom
Betty on the computer wearing black clothing with a black wig on
Man says to Betty "Do I look good?"
Betty says to man "Mmm-hmm."
Man says to Betty "Can I undress for you?"
Betty says to man "Yeah."
Man says to Betty "I love talking to you."
Betty says to Betty "I like talking to you too."
Man says to Betty "Can we meet sometime?"Betty says to Man "Maybe."
Alice says to Betty "Betty? What's going on in there? Why is the door locked?"
Alice knocks on Betty's bedroom door
Alice says to Betty "You know how I feel about locked doors."
Betty opens the door wearing a light pink nightgown
Betty says to Alice "Yeah,you're the one who likes to do the locking."
Alice says to Betty "I heard voices.Who were you talking to?" Betty says to Alice "Jughead.He had some questions about homework.Now can I finish getting dressed,please?"
Alice says to Betty "Well,I..."
Betty shuts her bedroom door in Alice's face and Alice puts a finger
In the students lounge
School bell ringing
Jughead standing
Veronica says to the gang "I already invited Archie,but I want you guys to be there,as well.
Usually these kinds of events,baptisms, confirmations are family-only,but since it's all about me and you guys are my chosen family,I pulled a few strings and reserved you a pew."
Kevin says to Veronica "What is the dress code?"
Veronica says to the gang "Catholic chic. So, dresses for the girls, veils optional.And coats and ties for the boys."
Betty smiling
Waldo says to everyone (on the mic) "Jughead Jones and Betty Cooper,please report to the principal's office.Jughead Jones and Betty Cooper to the principal's office."
Waldo ends the mic and Kevin looks concerned
In Waldo's office
Waldo says to Bughead "Since your article attacking General Pickens among others has come out,it's been a steady stream of outrage.
Most recently,Hiram Lodge's lawyer,a Mr. Sowerberry has called saying his client's considering legal action against the Blue and Gold." Jughead says to Waldo "On what grounds?" Waldo says to Jughead "Defamation of character,Mr. Jones."
Waldo says to Bughead "Effective immediately,
you are both suspended from the newspaper's staff.You have the day to clean out your personal things."
Jughead looks Annoyed
Betty looks concerned
In Newspaper Room
Jughead says to Betty "I'm so sorry,Betty.I don't care if they harass me at home or school,but you...You don't deserve this heat."
Betty says to Jughead "Who's harassing you at home?" Jughead says to Betty "Sheriff Keller.He has no proof,but he suspects one or more of the Serpents,probably me,decapitated the statue of General Pickens." Betty says to Jughead "And dd you?" Jughead says to Betty "Betty,how...? Why would I decapitate a bronze statue?"
Betty says to Jughead "Maybe the same reason you wrote that article.To avenge Toni's grandfather.I mean,you and Toni are close."
Jughead says to Betty "Sure.We're pals."
Betty says to Jughead "Close pals.I saw you guys at Pop's.Early one morning,in the middle of the Black Hood attacks.You were having breakfast,
and you seemed like more than pals.And I know it's not my place to ask...but did anything ever happen between you two?"
Jughead says to Betty "Yeah.The night of the Gauntlet.After you sent Archie to break up with me,Toni stayed over."
Jughead sighs
Jughead says to Betty "She gave me a...Tattoo.
And we did some stuff,but not everything."
Betty says to Jughead "Uh-huh."
Jughead says to Betty "But since you brought it up,have you done anything with anyone since we broke up?" Betty says to Jughead "No. No.Of course not."
In Pembrooke,Living Room/Dining Room
Veronica says to Hermione "Ooh-la-la! Is that for me?" Hermione says to Veronica "It is.It's confirmation present from the St. Clairs,of all people."
Veronica says to Hermione (Angry) "Why would they think they have the right to do that after everything that went down between us?"
Hermione says to Veronica "It's what families in our business do.Even when we're at war,we give gifts...to show respect.Or,in this case,to try and make amends."
Veronica says to Hermione "Well,whatever it is, feel free to burn or regift it."
Hermione drinks coffee and Veronica walks away and Hermione puts her cup away
Hermione says to Veronica "Veronica...Simone St. Clair called to follow up on this gift.She said that Archie paid Nick an unfriendly visit.Is that true?"
Veronica looks shocked and speechless
In Pops
Archie says to Pop Tate "Sorry to keep making you double-check everything,Pop.It's more to make sure I got it right.Mr. Lodge's special orders can get pretty complicated."
Pop Tate says to Archie "No problem,Archie."
Pop Tate gives Archie the order
Pop Tate says to Archie "After all,he's the boss."
Archie looks at Pop Tate
Pop Tate says to Archie "What do you mean by that,Pop?"
Archie's cell phone buzzing and Archie looks at his phone
Archie says to himself "Crap!"
In Andrew's Garage
Archie says to Arthur "You cannot just show up at my house like this."
Arthur says to Archie "I haven't heard from you in a while.I've been calling and texting."
Archie says to Arthur "There's been nothing to report." Arthur says to Archie "You don't think your girlfriend's confirmation is worth a mention?" Archie says to Arthur "No,why would it be?" Arthur says to Archie "Our sources are telling us Hiram Lodge's family is coming to it."
Arthur bends and Arthur stands up
Arthur says to Archie "And by that,I mean his crime family.I need you to be my eyes and ears at that event,Archie."
Archie scoffs
Arthur says to Archie "What? Is there a problem?" Archie says to Arthur "It's my girlfriend's confirmation.It's a big deal to her.I want to be there for Veronica,not the FBI."
Arthur says to Archie "Unfortunately,Archie,
you'll have to be there for us both."
At Sunnyside trailer park
Jughead walking home
Tom at Jughead's trailer
Jughead says to Tom "Sheriff Keller,we have to stop meeting like this."
Tom says to Jughead "Where's your dad at?"
Jughead says to Tom "Had a shift at Pop's.Why?"
Tom puts the eviction notice on Jones's trailer door
Tom says to Jughead "It's an eviction notice.You, your dad,pretty much everyone in this place,you all got to clear out."
Jughead says to Tom "What? Don't tell me this is because of that statue? For the millionth time, Sheriff,we did not decapitate General Pickens.
And you can't use that as some trumped-up excuse to try and evict all of us."
Tom says to Jughead "Look,I'm just the messenger,all right? This order comes down from the mayor's Office.Apparently there's a lot of back rent owed here.You have 14 days to vacate.
Then perhaps while you're packing, you might come across that head.Calm the waters a little."
Tom walks away
