Betty says to Archie " No, keep walking."
Archie says to Betty "Wait. The Black Hood called you?"
Betty says to Archie "Yes, it's risky for me to be telling you,but we're best friends.We live right next door.
Us walking to school togetherwould look normal to anyone watching, including him."
Archie says to Betty "You think he's watching us?"
Betty says to Archie "He could be.I know it sounds crazy, but it was him."
Archie says to Betty "Tell the police, even if it's not him."

In Pembroke
In Hiram's office
Hermione reading the newspaper
Hermione reading to Hiram "This most recent incident confirms
that the real threat is not the Black Hood but the Southside and its corruptive forces.Developer and ex-con Hiram Lodge boasts his SoDale project will revitalise the forsaken neighborhood,but this reporter speculates Hiram Lodge doesn't want to fix our problems,merely profit from them."
Hiram says to Hermione "Right before our open house.Thank you, Alice Cooper.We can't let anything derail this project.Not Alice, not the Southside gangs,not some hooded psychopath."
Hermione says to Hiram "Well, right now,our biggest problem is capital.We're running out of it and fast."
Hiram says to Hermione "I've invited investors to the open house.
The St. Clairs from New York."
Veronica says to Hiram "Wait. They are? Nicky included?I haven't seen Nicky in forever."
Veronica stands up
Hiram stands up
Hiram says to Veronica "Yeah, he's a budding music producer now.And his father is King Midas rich.We get him to invest, others will follow."
Hermione says to Veronica "You wanted a seat at the table.Nick has his father's ear.Help us close this. Show him all the good things
Riverdale has to offer."
Veronica says to Hermione "With pleasure."
indistinct chatter
Outside of Southside high
Jughead walks over to Southside serpents
Fangs says to Sweet pea "Sweet Pea. Take care of this."
Sweetpea says to Jughead "Nice article your girlfriend's mom wrote."
Jughead says to Sweetpea "Yeah.I saw that.Dilton Doiley was stabbed
and you jumped him?"
Fangs says to Jughead "The idiot stabbed himself with his own knife."
Sweet Pea says to Jughead "We didn't jump him.There was a fight.
Bulldogs versus Serpents. See this?
That boy Andrews gave it to me before his girlfriend shot a gun into the air."
Jughead says to Sweetpea "What happened?"
Sweetpea says to Jughead "And, of course,Northsiders get off scot-free,
the rest of us are hauled in by police."
Fangs says to Jughead "It's payback time."
Jughead says to the Southside serpents "What are you guys talking about?What is...? What is that?Is that a pipe bomb?"
Sweetpea says to Jughead "Fogarty's cousin served in the Army.He's gonna build us something."
Fangs says to the Southside serpents "We'll do it after hours.
It'll shut the Riverdale Register down once and for all."
Jughead yells at the Southside serpents"You think blowing up a building will make things better?"
Sweetpea says to Jughead "Can't get any worse."
Jughead says to Sweetpea "Yeah, Sweet Pea, it can.Let me talk to Archie, figure this out."
Sweetpea says to Jughead "That's your answer for everything. Talk. We don't know who you stand with.
Us? Or them?You can't be half a Serpent."
The rest of Southside Serpents walks away
Jughead sits down
Jughead says to Toni "Great. So, Archie started World War III."
Toni says to Jughead "Northside has been dumping on us for years.
Your dad tried to keep the peace.
Avoid bloodshed.Now that he's gone, idiots like Sweet Pea think there's one path and solution. Violence."
In the students lounge
Veronica says to Kevin "Nick and I were the will-they-or-won't-they of our jet set.He's an outrageous flirt,
but we never dated.We'd hop from club to club,go on these madcap adventures,stay up all night."
Archie says to Veronica "Who's this now?"
Archie sits down
Veronica says to Archie "Oh, Archiekins, don't be jelly.It's just a ghost from my bad-girl past, Nick St. Clair,breezing to town for the open house.You have nothing to worry about."
