Hiram says to Veronica "I put it in a trust that you won't touch until you're 21."
In FP's trailer/In the streets
Jughead says to Hiram "So you paid the Ghoulies and Penny to go to war with the Serpents.How much is this costing you? Cause I have a counter offer."
In the woods
Jughead says to Penny "I hand myself over to you tonight and there's no bloodshed tomorrow."
Jughead getting beating up
Penny says to Jughead "You're a true hero, Jughead.Let your dying thought be that your sacrifice was for nothing."
In the episode
At a graveyard in front of Jughead Jones grave
Betty sobbing
Betty says to Jughead's grave "Come back to me, Jug.We're not done yet,do you hear me??Our story's not over.It's just beginning.So you come back to me.Okay?"
In Jughead's Hospital Room
Jughead wakes
Jughead grunts and EKG beeping
FP says to Jughead "Dad."
Jughead grunts and FP stands up
FP says to Jughead "Jug."
Jughead says to FP "What did I miss?"
FP says to Jughead "What you did brought every Serpent I've ever known out of the woodwork and you would've been proud of em,boy.It looked like we were gonna win the day,but in the end there were just...just too many Ghoulies.It was like shooting snakes in a barrel."
Jughead says to FP "Why? Why did you go?"
FP says to Jughead "I wanted to avenge you."
Jughead says to FP "I had an agreement with Hiram Lodge."
FP says to Jughead "There was no stopping the others.They were churned up about you and Fangs.Even though Fangs is...He's alive."
Jughead says to FP "Fangs is alive?"
Jughead sighs
Jughead says to FP "But I thought...A deputy called you and told you he was dead."
FP says to Jughead "Yeah,that was a lie."
Jughead says to FP "A ploy,you mean.To goad the Serpents into a fight they couldn't win.All of riot night was a Hiram Lodge orchestrated mousetrap.And the Serpents followed me right into it." FP says to Jughead "Sunnyside Trailer Park fell,and while our trailer's still standing, most of them burned.Jug.After the rumble,some of the Serpents defected,they...They joined the Ghoulies,others were arrested.More went into hiding,the rest,they...They left town.The Serpents,they don't exist anymore.We had our time.Nothing for you to do but to get better.And to be there for Betty."
Jughead says to FP "Betty?
What happened with Betty?"
Betty cuddling up to Jughead
Jughead says to Betty "I'm so sorry that I wasn't there for you,to help with your dad."
Betty sits up
Betty says to Jughead "No,Jug.I never want to see him again.Right now,all I care about is you,and taking care of my mom.And figuring out how to...atone for all of the horrible things my father did." Jughead says to Betty "So I guess we won't be running for student council anymore,huh?"
Betty says to Jughead "Probably not."
Betty kisses Jughead's cheek
In Andrews house,kitchen
Veronica says to Fred "Here's your schedule for the next three days, Mr. Andrews.My mom's doing an Eva Perón-like rainbow tour.Shaking the trees one last time before election night.I took the liberty of booking you right behind her,so that people know they have a choice."
Fred says to Veronica "Well, I... I appreciate that,Veronica, for what it's worth, but...Everybody's already saying that your parents saved Riverdale after the riot.That it was their guy, Minetta,who put out the fires and rounded up the guilty parties."
Archie says to Fred "We know the truth, Dad,that Mr. Lodge doesn't want to save the town.He wants to take it over."
Veronica says to Fred "Luckily,I won't rest until you're elected mayor,Mr. Andrews.Even if it means I have to put my own political admissions aside."
Fred says to Veronica "In what respect?"
Veronica says to Fred "I'm no longer running for student council with Archie.Conspiring against my parents is proving to be a full time job."
Archie's cell phone ringing
Archie says to Betty "Hey,Betty, any news?"
In Jughead's hospital room
Jughead says to Archie and Veronica "I'll be out of here first thing tomorrow."
Jughead putting his beanie on
Archie says to Jughead "That's good, Jug.Because we still need your brain.There's another mystery
to solve.Mr. Cooper was at the town hall when some other Black Hood took shots at the candidates.And he was at home with Betty and Mrs. Cooper when another Black Hood,probably the same as the one at the town hall,came after me and my dad,so..."
Jughead says to Archie,Betty and Veronica "Well, a second Black Hood's attacks at the town hall and on your dad,seem to indicate a political motive.Which to me suggests..."
Veronica says to Jughead "That my father's behind them?"
Veronica stands up
Veronica says to Jughead,Betty and Archie "I don't disagree.With Fred out of the way, my mother's path to victory is that much more assured."
Archie says to Veronica,Betty and Jughead "So, if we're gonna stop Hiram,we've got to do it now. Once the Lodges are in control of the mayor's office,they'll be untouchable."
Jughead says to Archie "Yeah,but do you think Hiram would really put on a black hood and start shooting at people for a mayorship?"
Veronica says to Jughead "No.But he would hire someone to do it."
Archie says to Jughead "We were thinking it could be a Serpent, Jug.Or a Ghoulie."
Jughead says to Archie,Betty and Veronica"Or, even more insidiously...the man that Hiram put in charge of restoring peace and harmony."
Archie says to Jughead "Sheriff Minetta."
Veronica says to Jughead "He was supposedly guarding the town hall,but no one saw him."
Archie says to Jughead "And he was MIA most of the riot night."Jughead says to Archie "Let's start there."
Archie says to Jughead "Will do.I have to go down to the sheriff's station tomorrow anyway."
Betty says to Archie "Why,Arch?"
Archie says to Betty "I have to identify your dad, Betty."
In Thristlehouse,Living Room
Cheryl signing a contract
Sierra says to Cheryl "And with that,it's official. Congratulations." Cheryl says to Sierra "With Nana Blossom as my legal guardian,and I as her youthful ward,Mummy and Uncle Claudius stranglehold on my life and happiness has at last ended."
Sierra says to Cheryl "I will file the papers and send this letter of separation to your mother."
Cheryl grabs the letter
Cheryl says to Sierra "Oh.No need.She and my odious uncle are still on the estate,living in one of the barns.I'll happily deliver this missive in person."
At Thornhill,barn
Cheryl walking towards it and ear dropping on her mother and uncle with a light
Claudius says to Penelope "Especially with Fred."
Penelope says to Claudius "Now,now,Claudius. First things first."

In the streets
Thunder rumbling

Alice says to everyone "Yeah,that's right! He lived here,the Black Hood! Come closer.Do you want to come in? Do you want to see where he planned all of his murders? Do you want to see where he ate, where he slept?"
Betty says to everyone "Get out of here! Go!"
Alice says to everyone "The red door is wide open!"
Betty says to everyone "Go home! Turn off your cameras.Go home."
