STATIC
NARRATOR READING
What you are about to witness are three twisted tales connected to the tragic and macabre events that befell the town of Riverdale.Known as the black hood murders they were the more tragic because those who bore witness to these terrible things were so young.A seemingly random shooting quickly revealed itself to be the first in a series of gruesome attacks perpetrated by a hooded assailant.These latest chapters began with the discovery of a letter from the black hood affixed to the door of Pop Tate's Chock' lit Shoppe.

Jughead says to Betty "Hey, Betty,Phillips didn't deserve what happened to him,but he was...A high school teacher dealing drugs.I mean,Betty if it..."
Betty says to Jughead "And how the hell did the Black Hood even get into the Sheriff's Station? I mean,unless he..."

Jughead says to Penny "Is he okay?"
Penny says to Jughead "Well,they messed up that pretty face of his."
Jughead EXHALES DEEPLY
Penny says to Jughead "The Ghoulies wanted blood payback for the deal you and that Northsider made with Sheriff Keller,got all their higher ups locked away."
Jughead says to Penny "That wasn't... What can we do,to get him out?"
Penny says to Jughead "For that you would need money.You need money.Rich people? Rich people don't sit in jail.Money greases the wheels of justice."
Jughead says to Penny "I have $18 to my name."
Penny says to Jughead "Hmm.Well, then maybe we should think of this favour as a job,right? Just a one-time delivery. You just pick up a crate on the Southside,deliver it to an address in Greendale.That's it."
Jughead says to Penny "What's in the crate?"
Penny says to Jughead "Let's say,um...Pancake mix."
Jughead says to Penny "Penny,I'm not gonna be your drug-runner."
Penny says to Jughead "Of course not.You're gonna be my transportation advisor.Do this,
and I'll use your cut of the cash for your dad's case.I'll see what we can do about getting him an early release."
Jughead says to Penny "Okay. Okay,I'll do it."
Penny says to Jughead "Good boy.Okay.Now, you just gotta make the drop off and get out of there before midnight.Cause you don't want to be in Greendale after midnight, trust me.All right? And,um,this crate,it's not gonna fit on your bike.Can you get a car?"

Jughead says to Archie "Pretty sure the East Village doesn't exist anymore.Where are Betty and Veronica in this scenario?"
