Hermione says to Penelope "According to Veronica,nothing." Penelope says to Hermione and Hiram "Hermione.Hiram.I want this handled discreetly."
Veronica and Cheryl ear dropping from Veronica's bedroom door

Cheryl puts her jacket on
Cheryl says to Veronica "And besides,you heard what Mommy said.Nothing really happened to me."
Veronica says to Cheryl "Nick roofied you, he tried..."
Cheryl says to Veronica "I'm fine, Veronica.Everything's fine."
Veronica says to Cheryl "If everything's fine,why did we call Sheriff Keller and make a statement?"
Cheryl says to Veronica "A momentary lapse in sanity.I mean,can you even imagine? Me,facing off against Nick St.Clair in a courtroom battle royale? I'd be a laughing stock."
Cheryl about to leave
Veronica says to Cheryl "Cheryl,wait.It's not just you.He's done it to other girls,I mean,hell,he even tried to do it to me.The night before the open house."
Cheryl says to Veronica "Did you tell your parents?"
Cheryl yells at Veronica "And yet you were happy to fill them in on my after-dark-drama,weren't you? Well,I won't be a puppet for your thirst for vengeance.You want justice? You go after Nick in court,Veronica."

BETTY says to Archie "I needed to clear my head and I did.And I realised that this is just a sick game to him.Psychological torture.So,I'm done. With the Black Hood.With his letters,with his Simon Says." Archie says to Betty "So,what happens when he calls again?"
Betty says to Archie "I won't answer.I can't... keep playing.I can't."
Archie says to Betty "Didn't he threat at Polly?"
Betty says to Betty "He did and I talked to her.The people at the Farm are gonna help her disappear for a while.Just until it's safe again."
Archie says to Betty "Yeah,whenever that is.And what about Jughead and Veronica?"
Betty says to Archie "We have to tell them the truth.And we will.I'll tell them.Let's just,you know,let things settle first.Make sure it's all over."
Archie and Betty sees Jughead and Toni hanging out
Barchie PHONES RINGING at the same time and Barchie answers it
Betty says to Alice "Mom."
Archie says to Fred "Dad."
In Coopers house,Living Room
Alice says to everyone "Riverdale's best and brightest,huh?"
Tom staring at Sierra
Sierra says to Alice "Alice,thank you for hosting."
Alice says to Sierra "Of course,Mayor McCoy."
Alice says to everyone "When I heard what happened at Nick's party,I decided that we should come together to deal with this motley crew of liars,dope-fiends,and fornicators.Except for my Betty,who was smart enough to leave the party before it descended into a bacchanalian free for all." BETTY says to Alice "Oh,my God. Mom,please don't."
Veronica says to Archie "Oh great,here we go Saint Betty and Succubus Veronica."
FRED says to Alice "So,this is for clarity,Alice.You're hosting this little get-together to what?" Veronica says to Archie "You know,I may ave taken Jingle Jangle,but she's the one who had a psychotic break."
Archie says to Veronica "Cut her some slack,Veronica.She just broke up with Jughead."
Kevin says to Archie "What? Hashtag Bughead is no more? And Betty didn't tell me?"
Alice CLEARS her THROAT
Hiram says to Alice "Careful throwing stones there,acid-queen Alice.I'm not the only one in this room that knows the story behind that mugshot that your daughter printed in her paper."
Sierra says to everyone "Well I,for one, would like to know who brought the Jingle Jangle to the party?"
Everybody goes quiet and Reggie puts his hand up
Melinda says to Reggie "Reginald,not a single word out of your mouth until we get a lawyer."
Marty says to Melinda "No,all Reggie needs to tell us,Melinda,is how he acquired it."
Reggie says to everyone "Some gang member who deals on the Southside..."
Melinda says to Reggie "Oh,my God,you have a dealer?"
Hiram says to Sierra "Once again, Mayor,the Southside is the source of all our problems."
Fred says to Reggie "Was he a Serpent? Does he go to Southside High?"
Reggie says to Fred "I think so,yeah."
Archie says to everyone "What does it matter?Not all Serpents are drug dealers."
Fred says to Archie "Archie,not helping."
Veronica says to everyone "Look,we shouldn't have taken the JJ,but Nick's the one who asked Reggie to get it and then pushed it on us.He's the one who should be in the hot seat.I mean,he's the one who roofied Cheryl and tried to assault her."
Tom says to everyone "Prosecuting Nick St. Clair would be difficult given that all witnesses were high." Veronica says to everyone "Yeah,but Josie and I saw Nick with Cheryl the night after the party and neither of us were on Jingle Jangle."
Tom says to everyone "The drug stays in your system for three days.So if I drug tested you right now,you'd have a credibility problem."
Sierra says to Josie "Josie,you took that drug?You put that poison in your system,knowing the way your father's struggled with addiction?"
Josie nods
Sierra says to Josie "I see."
Sierra stands up
Sierra says to everyone "From this moment on, bringing the Southside under control is my number one priority as mayor.If it means razing it to the ground or arresting every single Serpent in sight,starting at that high school,so be it."
Sierra says to Josie "Let's go,Josephine.now."
Sierra walks out and Josie stands up and follows her mom
In the Newspaper Room
Robert reads to Jughead "People have associated this school with the plagues of the Southside. Drugs,gangs,violence.But,like the Southside, there is a community here.And while the decay is real,it is not irreversible."
Robert says to Jughead "I'm impressed,Jughead.Where'd you find the time to put out an issue of The Red and the Black while pledging the Southside Serpents? I'm not blind.We had a deal." Jughead says to Robert "The Serpents,they truly are a community,Mr. Phillips."
Robert says to Jughead "A community of drug-dealers." Jughead says to Robert "That's not the Serpents.That's the Ghoulies.That's my next article." Robert says to Jughead "Jughead,when you said..."
PHONE BEEPS
