00:00:03,259 --> 00:00:05,261
After Mr. Cooper
told Mrs. Cooper
2
00:00:05,344 --> 00:00:07,304
that Betty had been dancing in her window,
3
00:00:07,388 --> 00:00:11,559
in her skivvies,
for Archie's, uh, benefit,
4
00:00:12,226 --> 00:00:14,854
Mrs. Cooper phoned Hollywood, California,
5
00:00:14,937 --> 00:00:15,855
So no wonder...
6
00:00:15,938 --> 00:00:19,650
to give Hermione Lodge
a good old-fashioned East Coast what for
7
00:00:20,317 --> 00:00:23,070
since Veronica had supplied
the skivvies in question.
8
00:00:25,072 --> 00:00:27,450
Then Alice rang her good friend
Penelope Blossom
9
00:00:27,533 --> 00:00:30,494
for advice about what to do,
mother to mother.
10
00:00:30,578 --> 00:00:33,414
Well, I can't say I'm surprised.
11
00:00:34,623 --> 00:00:35,708
By what, Mother?
12
00:00:38,169 --> 00:00:41,297
Operator, can you put me
through to Stratford, 747?
13
00:00:42,256 --> 00:00:46,093
Alice Cooper needs help
saving her little hussy of a daughter.
14
00:00:47,762 --> 00:00:50,306
Agnes. You won't believe...
15
00:00:50,389 --> 00:00:53,893
So by morning, everyone knew
some version of what had happened,
16
00:00:53,976 --> 00:00:55,603
most of it untrue.
17
00:00:55,686 --> 00:00:58,564
And repercussions
were being felt far and near.
18
00:00:58,647 --> 00:01:02,234
- She's never gonna talk to me, is she?
- Your mother just needs to understand
19
00:01:02,318 --> 00:01:04,320
that you're a red-blooded
American young man,
20
00:01:04,403 --> 00:01:07,573
and that Betty, well,
she's a voluptuous, ripe peach of a girl.
21
00:01:09,241 --> 00:01:12,036
I just... I'm so embarrassed, Uncle Frank.
22
00:01:12,119 --> 00:01:15,039
Well, were you caught
with your pants down?
23
00:01:15,915 --> 00:01:18,751
Yes. Was what you were doing
a little raunchy?
24
00:01:19,460 --> 00:01:20,544
Well, maybe.
25
00:01:21,086 --> 00:01:24,548
But I'd be more worried if you weren't
showing an interest in that kitten.
26
00:01:24,632 --> 00:01:26,717
But for now,
just keep up with your schoolwork,
27
00:01:26,801 --> 00:01:29,303
focus on the basketball team,
stay away from Betty.
28
00:01:30,095 --> 00:01:33,557
Take plenty of cold showers,
and we'll get you through this, Archie.
29
00:01:33,641 --> 00:01:35,142
- All right?
- Yeah.
30
00:01:36,477 --> 00:01:37,477
Good.
31
00:01:42,691 --> 00:01:45,486
You cannot parade around naked
in front of boys.
32
00:01:45,569 --> 00:01:48,697
Okay, again, Archie and I were not naked.
33
00:01:48,781 --> 00:01:50,241
We were just...
34
00:01:51,408 --> 00:01:52,284
having fun.
35
00:01:52,368 --> 00:01:55,788
We were in separate houses, Mom.
What did you think was gonna happen?
36
00:01:55,871 --> 00:01:57,998
With you, anything's possible.
37
00:01:58,582 --> 00:02:00,000
Which is why, starting today,
38
00:02:00,084 --> 00:02:03,462
you will be cutting a rug
on Riverdale Grandstand.
39
00:02:03,546 --> 00:02:05,005
Mom, no.
40
00:02:05,089 --> 00:02:07,508
Mom, I don't wanna be
part of Dad's dance show.
41
00:02:07,591 --> 00:02:11,095
Only nerds and squares
are on Dad's dance show.
42
00:02:11,178 --> 00:02:13,305
All right, enough of the sass, young lady.
43
00:02:13,389 --> 00:02:16,642
You will be dancing from 3 to 6
every afternoon after school.
44
00:02:16,725 --> 00:02:19,270
We will make sure
that you're nice and tuckered out
45
00:02:19,353 --> 00:02:21,522
so there's no more late-night shows
46
00:02:21,605 --> 00:02:25,067
with your pinky out of jail
for oversexed young men like Archie.
47
00:02:25,151 --> 00:02:29,864
If I catch wind of you even saying hello
to that redheaded pervert, well...
48
00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:33,826
You don't wanna see me frosted,
young lady.
49
00:02:38,956 --> 00:02:42,918
♪ Tweedle-y, tweedle-y, tweedle-y dee ♪
50
00:02:45,045 --> 00:02:48,924
♪ I'm as happy as can be... ♪
51
00:02:49,008 --> 00:02:50,801
Miss Veronica, pardon the interruption,
52
00:02:50,885 --> 00:02:54,221
but a telegram arrived
from your parents, miss.
53
00:02:54,305 --> 00:02:59,268
They must still be peeved
about Mrs. Cooper snitching on me.
54
00:03:01,353 --> 00:03:04,899
"'Mija, you have been a bad girl.' Stop.
55
00:03:05,524 --> 00:03:07,484
'Time to teach you a lesson.' Stop.
56
00:03:07,568 --> 00:03:09,612
'No more allowance.' Stop.
57
00:03:10,195 --> 00:03:15,075
'Report for work at the Babylonium Theater
today at 3:30, sharp.' Stop."
58
00:03:15,826 --> 00:03:20,998
They're suspending my allowance
and making me get an after-school job?
59
00:03:21,832 --> 00:03:23,459
Smithers, this is child abuse.
60
00:03:26,670 --> 00:03:29,548
If they think they can break my spirit
as if I were a filly,
61
00:03:29,632 --> 00:03:31,717
they're in for a rude awakening.
62
00:03:43,812 --> 00:03:44,813
Hey, Dad.
63
00:03:45,981 --> 00:03:47,691
Kevin, what are you doing with this?
64
00:03:49,485 --> 00:03:52,154
Uh, it's... That's a bodybuilding magazine.
65
00:03:53,864 --> 00:03:55,157
Where did you get that from,
66
00:03:55,241 --> 00:03:57,826
that new pal of yours,
that Clay character?
67
00:03:57,910 --> 00:03:59,578
His name's Clay Walker. No.
68
00:03:59,662 --> 00:04:02,623
Uh, no, Dad. What...? What's going on?
69
00:04:03,415 --> 00:04:04,416
I don't know.
70
00:04:06,085 --> 00:04:07,294
I don't know, Kevin.
71
00:04:08,170 --> 00:04:10,506
I mean, you cut your girlfriend loose,
72
00:04:10,589 --> 00:04:13,217
you started hanging around
with strange boys,
73
00:04:13,300 --> 00:04:17,304
and you're reading magazines like this.
74
00:04:19,598 --> 00:04:21,433
I don't like much of any of it.
75
00:04:25,437 --> 00:04:27,773
Meanwhile, I was wracked by guilt
76
00:04:27,856 --> 00:04:29,566
over the fact that I betrayed my idol,
77
00:04:29,650 --> 00:04:32,236
the science fiction writer
Brad Rayberry, when...
78
00:04:32,319 --> 00:04:33,862
Mr. Jones.
79
00:04:34,697 --> 00:04:37,032
Featherhead called me on the carpet.
80
00:04:41,829 --> 00:04:43,247
Care to explain this?
81
00:04:43,956 --> 00:04:46,500
I have a part-time gig
writing comic books after school.
82
00:04:46,583 --> 00:04:49,253
The content, Mr. Jones,
is what we're concerned about.
83
00:04:49,336 --> 00:04:53,090
The violent, gruesome,
highly sexualized content,
84
00:04:53,173 --> 00:04:57,261
all happening to students clearly
inspired by your peers here at Riverdale.
85
00:04:57,928 --> 00:05:04,310
Aren't you ashamed to be associated
with such reprehensible dreck?
86
00:05:04,393 --> 00:05:07,396
No, actually, I'm quite proud
to have my name on that cover.
87
00:05:07,479 --> 00:05:11,275
And whose beeswax is it anyway
what I do with my time after school?
88
00:05:12,359 --> 00:05:15,029
If we were to learn
that one of our students was involved
89
00:05:15,112 --> 00:05:17,323
in the creation
and distribution of pornography,
90
00:05:17,406 --> 00:05:19,992
we would absolutely expel them.
91
00:05:21,201 --> 00:05:24,371
This is a comic book, sir.
This isn't a porno mag.
92
00:05:24,455 --> 00:05:27,958
Well, we don't see them
as so very different, Mr. Jones.
93
00:05:28,042 --> 00:05:32,379
Both are inappropriate for children,
both twist their minds and souls.
94
00:05:32,463 --> 00:05:33,964
Cut the gas.
95
00:05:34,048 --> 00:05:37,217
That's the biggest load of hooey
that's ever been laid on me in my life.
96
00:05:37,301 --> 00:05:39,136
It's very simple, Mr. Jones.
97
00:05:39,219 --> 00:05:42,473
Sign this agreement
stating that you'll no longer write
98
00:05:42,556 --> 00:05:46,060
horror and crime comic books,
and you'll remain a student here.
99
00:05:46,769 --> 00:05:48,103
Refuse to sign it,
100
00:05:48,187 --> 00:05:50,355
and we will take steps
to have you expelled.
101
00:06:01,992 --> 00:06:03,552
- Oh, my God.
- There she is.
102
00:06:15,005 --> 00:06:16,005
Andrews!
103
00:06:31,772 --> 00:06:34,399
Can I ask, how far did you get?
104
00:06:34,983 --> 00:06:36,735
I'm hearing conflicting reports.
105
00:06:36,819 --> 00:06:39,947
All we did was look at each other.
106
00:06:40,030 --> 00:06:43,992
My favorite words in English,
"You can look, but you can't touch."
107
00:06:44,076 --> 00:06:47,037
Well, Archie and I
won't be touching any time soon.
108
00:06:47,121 --> 00:06:49,289
Or looking, for that matter.
109
00:06:49,373 --> 00:06:53,293
Especially not now that I'm on
my dad's grody dance show every day.
110
00:06:53,794 --> 00:06:55,587
- Riverdale Grandstand?
- Mm-hm.
111
00:06:55,671 --> 00:06:57,172
I haven't seen it myself.
112
00:06:57,256 --> 00:07:00,676
You know television makes my skin crawl,
but it seems like it could be a kick.
113
00:07:00,759 --> 00:07:02,094
It's a bash.
114
00:07:02,177 --> 00:07:04,388
More than that, it's an honor.
115
00:07:04,888 --> 00:07:07,933
One, as dance captain,
I take very seriously.
116
00:07:08,016 --> 00:07:12,187
Cheryl, how and why are you
a dance captain on Riverdale Grandstand?
117
00:07:12,271 --> 00:07:14,857
Her parents are RIVW's biggest sponsor.
118
00:07:14,940 --> 00:07:18,068
I do my part as dance captain
and spokeswoman.
119
00:07:18,152 --> 00:07:21,655
- Vee, why don't you join the dance show?
- Absolutely not.
120
00:07:23,740 --> 00:07:24,950
I would love to,
121
00:07:25,033 --> 00:07:29,455
but I'm starting my new job
at the movie theater this afternoon.
122
00:07:29,538 --> 00:07:32,749
Part of my punishment
for encouraging the corruption of minors.
123
00:07:34,042 --> 00:07:37,296
Speaking of that, here's a list of rules
for participants, Betty,
124
00:07:37,379 --> 00:07:39,590
in case you get any more pervy ideas.
125
00:07:39,673 --> 00:07:42,342
"No chewing gum,
dress code strictly enforced,
126
00:07:42,426 --> 00:07:45,095
no kissing, no groin-on-groin contact."
127
00:07:45,179 --> 00:07:47,556
See you at 3:30. On the dot.
128
00:08:12,456 --> 00:08:13,874
Have fun now, Kevin.
129
00:08:16,168 --> 00:08:18,587
Everybody, bring it in.
130
00:08:20,964 --> 00:08:23,717
I'm sure most of you know
your classmate Kevin Keller,
131
00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:26,178
but as of today,
he's the newest member of our team,
132
00:08:26,261 --> 00:08:28,347
so let's give him a big Bulldog welcome.
133
00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:34,520
Swell. Just what we need,
a cream puff Bulldog.
134
00:09:01,129 --> 00:09:03,840
She's a knockout, isn't she?
135
00:09:04,466 --> 00:09:07,344
Yes, she is. Fat city.
136
00:09:07,427 --> 00:09:10,472
And you must be my new boss, Mr. Lemley.
137
00:09:10,556 --> 00:09:11,765
Veronica Lodge.
138
00:09:12,349 --> 00:09:15,769
And, please, whatever arrangement
my parents made with you,
139
00:09:15,852 --> 00:09:19,690
let me assure you,
movie theaters are my happy place.
140
00:09:19,773 --> 00:09:23,360
They have been ever since I attended
my first picture show, Babes in Arms.
141
00:09:23,443 --> 00:09:27,447
So, what's my job? Ticket taker?
Popcorn girl? Usherette?
142
00:09:27,531 --> 00:09:28,782
All of the above.
143
00:09:28,865 --> 00:09:31,368
These days,
I can only afford a skeleton crew.
144
00:09:31,451 --> 00:09:33,954
- That's pretty much you, me...
- And me.
145
00:09:37,374 --> 00:09:40,627
I run the projector,
and try to keep on top of repairs
146
00:09:40,711 --> 00:09:42,838
so that this place
doesn't collapse on itself.
147
00:09:42,921 --> 00:09:45,257
- Enchanté, Clay.
- Enchanté.
148
00:09:45,340 --> 00:09:47,342
I look forward
to getting to know you better
149
00:09:47,426 --> 00:09:49,052
and being part of the team.
150
00:09:49,136 --> 00:09:50,846
All right, kids.
151
00:09:50,929 --> 00:09:53,265
It's time for the Bop.

00:10:16,496 --> 00:10:18,415
Betty, why aren't you dancing?
160
00:10:18,498 --> 00:10:21,335
Because I don't wanna be here,
and I don't wanna dance.
161
00:10:21,418 --> 00:10:22,544
You have to dance.
162
00:10:22,628 --> 00:10:24,713
It's bad for ratings
if the camera pans this way
163
00:10:24,796 --> 00:10:27,066
and catches the daughter
of our beloved host with the most
164
00:10:27,090 --> 00:10:28,800
acting like a canceled stamp.
165
00:10:28,884 --> 00:10:31,178
What do you what me to do?
Everyone's paired up.
166
00:10:31,261 --> 00:10:33,639
That's not true. What about Dilton?
167
00:10:35,557 --> 00:10:38,560
He hasn't had a steady partner since
Ethel went to Sisters of Quiet Mercy.
168
00:10:38,644 --> 00:10:42,064
- Just don't maul him, for Pete's sake.
- Fine.
169
00:10:48,695 --> 00:10:50,280
Just checking in.
170
00:10:50,364 --> 00:10:53,075
- Don't stay up too late, now.
- Hey, Uncle Frank, um...
171
00:10:54,993 --> 00:10:58,080
What were you and Sheriff Keller
talking about at practice today?
172
00:10:58,163 --> 00:11:01,124
Oh, that he wants Kevin
to get more into sports.
173
00:11:01,208 --> 00:11:03,752
He thinks he could use
some better male role models,
174
00:11:03,835 --> 00:11:05,796
regular Joes like me and you.
175
00:11:07,964 --> 00:11:09,341
Is something wrong with Kevin?
176
00:11:12,719 --> 00:11:13,887
Well,
177
00:11:14,971 --> 00:11:19,810
sometimes boys get confused
on how they're supposed to act.
178
00:11:19,893 --> 00:11:23,021
But don't worry, Archie.
I promised Tom. You and me,
179
00:11:23,897 --> 00:11:25,524
we'll straighten Kevin out.
180
00:11:38,578 --> 00:11:41,331
Hey, Kev.
Hey, what are you doing during lunch?
181
00:11:42,666 --> 00:11:45,168
I thought maybe we could hang out,
shoot some baskets.
182
00:11:46,795 --> 00:11:47,838
Yeah, sure.
183
00:11:47,921 --> 00:11:49,297
Gee, that's swell.
184
00:11:49,381 --> 00:11:50,966
I'll see you in the gym.
185
00:11:51,049 --> 00:11:52,384
Catch you later, Clay.
186
00:12:08,525 --> 00:12:09,985
Mr. Rayberry.
187
00:12:10,068 --> 00:12:12,654
I was wondering
if I could trade this check in for cash.
188
00:12:13,613 --> 00:12:14,865
I don't trust banks.
189
00:12:14,948 --> 00:12:16,575
Sure, Mr. Rayberry.
190
00:12:17,826 --> 00:12:18,994
Let me talk to Payroll.
191
00:12:20,537 --> 00:12:21,621
Thank you.
192
00:12:22,247 --> 00:12:24,374
- Again, I'm so sorry I...
- It's 12:30.
193
00:12:25,208 --> 00:12:26,877
Shouldn't you be in school?
194
00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:29,629
- I might have dropped out.
- Why?
195
00:12:29,713 --> 00:12:34,134
Well, the finks at the top said
that if I don't stop writing comic books
196
00:12:34,217 --> 00:12:36,344
and corrupting America's youth,
197
00:12:36,428 --> 00:12:39,389
that I'll be expelled
for some cooked-up malarkey,
198
00:12:39,473 --> 00:12:41,516
so I beat feet.
199
00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:42,642
Huh.
200
00:12:43,477 --> 00:12:44,603
Hope it's worth it.
201
00:12:48,148 --> 00:12:49,900
What time is your lunch break, anyway?
202
00:12:52,486 --> 00:12:53,945
Any time, I guess.
203
00:12:59,493 --> 00:13:03,205
Hey, Kev. You know, you and I have been
in the same grade since kindergarten.
204
00:13:05,999 --> 00:13:08,585
Why basketball? Why now?
205
00:13:08,668 --> 00:13:10,462
Uh, it was my dad's idea.
206
00:13:11,796 --> 00:13:14,674
I just think he wants me
to be a regular guy,
207
00:13:14,758 --> 00:13:15,926
less of an off horse.
208
00:13:16,009 --> 00:13:18,053
I mean, what does that even mean?
209
00:13:19,095 --> 00:13:21,056
You know, a guy who likes sports,
210
00:13:21,139 --> 00:13:25,560
who, um,
does like what you did with Betty.
211
00:13:26,645 --> 00:13:31,441
Who isn't interested in things
like poetry, and drama,
212
00:13:31,525 --> 00:13:34,152
and music, and movie stars, and...
213
00:13:34,236 --> 00:13:37,489
- I like those things.
- Well, yeah, but you're...
214
00:13:40,325 --> 00:13:43,620
What? What am I?
215
00:13:43,703 --> 00:13:45,580
You're normal, Archie. You're normal.
216
00:13:46,498 --> 00:13:48,542
Kevin, so are you.
217
00:13:49,251 --> 00:13:52,212
Yeah, I wanna be, more than anything.
218
00:13:53,672 --> 00:13:55,840
I just wanna be like everybody else.
219
00:13:59,219 --> 00:14:00,428
Ooh.
220
00:14:10,230 --> 00:14:13,608
Again, and for the rest of my life,
I would like to apologize.
221
00:14:13,692 --> 00:14:15,735
For stealing and reading my novel.
222
00:14:17,237 --> 00:14:19,823
- For that, yeah. It was a chump move.
- Mm. Mm-hm.
223
00:14:19,906 --> 00:14:21,950
You had every right to bite my head off.
224
00:14:22,033 --> 00:14:23,033
I did.
225
00:14:23,994 --> 00:14:25,579
That said, I, um...
226
00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:30,041
I may have, uh, overreacted.
227
00:14:30,125 --> 00:14:33,628
No, I totally understand
why you were being protective
228
00:14:33,712 --> 00:14:36,256
over The Jupiter Journals,
Mr. Rayberry. I...
229
00:14:37,757 --> 00:14:39,384
I think it's a masterpiece.
230
00:14:39,467 --> 00:14:40,510
Huh.
231
00:14:41,761 --> 00:14:44,890
If I wrote that manuscript,
I think I could die a happy man.
232
00:14:44,973 --> 00:14:48,476
Well, before we start
planning your funeral,
233
00:14:48,560 --> 00:14:51,104
let's talk about
you dropping out of school.
234
00:14:51,187 --> 00:14:54,065
You should go back.
Education is important.
235
00:14:55,150 --> 00:14:58,028
I just don't really see
why I have to choose
236
00:14:58,111 --> 00:15:00,697
between writing comic books
and getting an education.
237
00:15:00,780 --> 00:15:01,780
You shouldn't.
238
00:15:02,282 --> 00:15:04,492
And this, young sir,
239
00:15:04,576 --> 00:15:08,163
is what is known as a Gordian knot.
240
00:15:11,333 --> 00:15:13,793
So tell me everything you know
about this Werthers clown.
241
00:15:13,877 --> 00:15:17,964
Who he is, where he comes from,
what he's about, what he believes.
242
00:15:20,008 --> 00:15:22,302
Fellas, an announcement.
243
00:15:22,385 --> 00:15:25,263
Let's give a proud woof for Rogers here,
244
00:15:25,347 --> 00:15:29,726
who finally did the dirty deed
with Jenny Stevens last night,
245
00:15:29,809 --> 00:15:33,188
in the back of
his dad's Thunderbird no less.
246
00:15:34,773 --> 00:15:38,944
Between Rogers and Andrews'
X-rated peep show with Betty Cooper,
247
00:15:39,027 --> 00:15:41,988
we might wanna
rename our team the Horndogs.
248
00:15:43,907 --> 00:15:47,077
Question is,
which one of you fruitcakes is next?
249
00:15:47,869 --> 00:15:50,997
Can't be a real man unless
you've gone all the way with a woman.
250
00:15:51,081 --> 00:15:54,000
We all know Fogarty's solid.
You and Midge, right?
251
00:15:54,084 --> 00:15:56,503
That's none of your beeswax there,
Blossom.
252
00:15:56,586 --> 00:15:58,755
A man of mystery. Okay.
253
00:16:00,507 --> 00:16:01,925
What about you, Keller?
254
00:16:02,550 --> 00:16:04,803
What about you, Julian?
255
00:16:06,054 --> 00:16:07,639
Pretty sure you're still a virgin.
256
00:16:07,722 --> 00:16:09,349
Uh, keep dreaming.
257
00:16:09,849 --> 00:16:12,560
Crossed into the promised land
on my 16th birthday,
258
00:16:13,269 --> 00:16:15,355
when my dad took me to see Twyla Twyst.
259
00:16:15,438 --> 00:16:16,690
Who's Twyla Twyst?
260
00:16:16,773 --> 00:16:20,860
A floozy who works out of
the Cozy Time Motel behind the school.
261
00:16:20,944 --> 00:16:22,946
Spend one night with her,
262
00:16:23,655 --> 00:16:26,366
heck, even one hour,
and you'll never be the same.
263
00:16:28,159 --> 00:16:29,828
What do you say, Keller?
264
00:16:31,037 --> 00:16:32,038
You up for it?
265
00:16:32,122 --> 00:16:34,666
- Put a lid on it, Julian. Kevin...
- Yeah.
266
00:16:34,749 --> 00:16:36,501
I'll do it. I'll go see her.
267
00:16:37,711 --> 00:16:40,922
Attaboy, Keller. That's the spirit.
268
00:16:41,006 --> 00:16:42,632
Let me know when and where.
269
00:16:46,803 --> 00:16:49,180
So, Clay, bring me up to speed.
270
00:16:50,348 --> 00:16:52,475
Am I sensing you're a fellow cinephile?
271
00:16:53,184 --> 00:16:56,187
It's actually what I wanna
study in college, filmmaking.
272
00:16:57,355 --> 00:17:00,191
I know it sounds
nutty as a can of peanuts,
273
00:17:00,275 --> 00:17:04,612
but I dream of one day inspiring people
like my hero inspired me.
274
00:17:04,696 --> 00:17:06,448
- Oscar Micheaux.
- Who's he?
275
00:17:06,531 --> 00:17:07,657
A Black director.
276
00:17:07,741 --> 00:17:10,744
He started at the same time
as D. W. Griffith and Mary Pickford.
277
00:17:10,827 --> 00:17:14,414
Well, if we're indulging
in pipe dreams today,
278
00:17:15,248 --> 00:17:18,293
I've never been crazy about
being in front of the cameras,
279
00:17:18,376 --> 00:17:20,712
but I do love being near them.
280
00:17:21,796 --> 00:17:26,760
Well, maybe your destiny
is to run a studio one day,
281
00:17:26,843 --> 00:17:29,387
and then you can hire me
to direct my first movie.
282
00:17:30,889 --> 00:17:31,931
Deal.
283
00:17:35,310 --> 00:17:38,438
Oh, Mr. Lemley, when does our rush begin?
284
00:17:39,856 --> 00:17:41,691
Um, you're looking at it.
285
00:17:41,775 --> 00:17:43,735
Seems like it's gonna be
another slow night.
286
00:17:43,818 --> 00:17:49,115
Uh, slow is one thing,
but graveyard-like is another.
287
00:17:49,199 --> 00:17:50,241
What gives?
288
00:17:50,325 --> 00:17:53,745
TV has taken a Dracula-sized bite
out of our business.
289
00:17:53,828 --> 00:17:58,541
Also, that new drive-in
that's just opened up, the Starlight,
290
00:17:59,459 --> 00:18:00,668
doesn't help either.
291
00:18:00,752 --> 00:18:04,964
Excuse me, living rooms
and drive-ins cannot compete
292
00:18:05,048 --> 00:18:09,719
with the experience of seeing a movie
in a palace like the Babylonium.
293
00:18:10,428 --> 00:18:12,180
People need to be reminded of that.
294
00:18:12,263 --> 00:18:14,766
How about an ad in the Riverdale Register?
295
00:18:15,558 --> 00:18:19,771
Or what about a commercial on television
296
00:18:20,396 --> 00:18:23,066
aired during Riverdale Grandstand?
297
00:18:23,149 --> 00:18:24,818
All the kids will see it that way.
298
00:18:28,822 --> 00:18:30,865
Dancing up a storm sure is hard work.
299
00:18:30,949 --> 00:18:33,052
That's why I like to fortify myself
throughout the day
300
00:18:33,076 --> 00:18:35,245
with hearty helpings
of Blossom maple syrup.
301
00:18:35,328 --> 00:18:37,223
- Try it on your pancakes...
- Waffles...
302
00:18:37,247 --> 00:18:40,125
- Biscuits...
- And even your favorite ice cream.
303
00:18:40,208 --> 00:18:42,794
Nine out of 10 Americans agree
there is nothing quite like
304
00:18:42,877 --> 00:18:45,004
the extra sweet flavor
of Blossom maple syrup.
305
00:18:45,088 --> 00:18:47,590
And remember, kids,
it's not just for breakfast anymore.
306
00:18:47,674 --> 00:18:49,926
Now in economy-sized tins.
307
00:18:50,426 --> 00:18:52,011
And cut!
308
00:18:54,305 --> 00:18:59,102
All right, kids, let's swing again
to "Listen to Me, Baby."
309
00:18:59,185 --> 00:19:01,813
♪ Open your ears
Hear what I've got to say ♪
310
00:19:02,647 --> 00:19:06,901
♪ Whoa, oh, open your ears
Hear what I've got to say ♪
311
00:19:06,985 --> 00:19:08,069
Hey there.
312
00:19:08,862 --> 00:19:09,988
It's Betty, right?
313
00:19:11,531 --> 00:19:14,909
I'm Troy.
My usual partner, Judy, has the mumps.
314
00:19:15,410 --> 00:19:17,120
Wanna let me take you out for a spin?
315
00:19:17,203 --> 00:19:19,372
Sure, you might as well.
316
00:19:19,455 --> 00:19:20,623
Now, that's swell.
317
00:19:27,338 --> 00:19:32,677
♪ All I have to keep me
Is my memories of you... ♪
318
00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:35,054
♪ I sit alone at night... ♪
319
00:19:35,138 --> 00:19:36,264
So is it true?
320
00:19:39,058 --> 00:19:43,146
That you, uh, like it when guys watch you?
321
00:19:44,606 --> 00:19:46,941
I don't know what you're talking about.
322
00:19:47,859 --> 00:19:50,528
Come on, fess up.
I mean, we've all heard the story.
323
00:19:52,780 --> 00:19:56,326
After we wrap here,
how about you and I go down to the river,
324
00:19:56,409 --> 00:19:59,913
you can put on
a little private show for me?
325
00:19:59,996 --> 00:20:00,996
Will you?
326
00:20:02,373 --> 00:20:04,042
Get your paws off me, you creep.
327
00:20:07,003 --> 00:20:09,130
Betty. Betty.
328
00:20:09,672 --> 00:20:11,966
You cannot do that on live television.
329
00:20:12,967 --> 00:20:14,177
Attagirl.
330
00:20:17,722 --> 00:20:20,350
For the 100th time, it wasn't my fault.
331
00:20:20,433 --> 00:20:22,352
Troy got fresh with me. He grabbed my...
332
00:20:22,435 --> 00:20:26,231
If he did, it's because you have
created a fast reputation.
333
00:20:26,314 --> 00:20:28,983
I barely touched him.
334
00:20:29,067 --> 00:20:31,027
What is the matter with you?
335
00:20:31,110 --> 00:20:32,904
You know what would solve this problem?
336
00:20:32,987 --> 00:20:34,822
If you let me off Riverdale Grandstand.
337
00:20:34,906 --> 00:20:38,576
You know what? I'll have a little chat
with all of the young men on our show,
338
00:20:38,660 --> 00:20:41,204
and no one is going to dance with you.
339
00:20:42,163 --> 00:20:44,374
Wait. So, what am I gonna be doing then?
340
00:20:44,457 --> 00:20:47,502
You can sit in the corner
and stew like a sourpuss for all I care.
341
00:20:52,632 --> 00:20:53,758
Hi, Mr. Rayberry.
342
00:20:54,467 --> 00:20:56,386
Oh, I'm sorry. Can I come in?
343
00:20:56,469 --> 00:20:59,097
Sure, as long as you don't swipe anything.
344
00:20:59,639 --> 00:21:02,725
Look, I've been thinking about it.
I don't wanna give up writing.
345
00:21:02,809 --> 00:21:04,769
My high school diploma be damned.
346
00:21:04,852 --> 00:21:07,981
I agree. And you're right,
you shouldn't stop writing.
347
00:21:08,064 --> 00:21:09,607
But you do need a front.
348
00:21:09,691 --> 00:21:10,900
- A cover.
- A front?
349
00:21:10,984 --> 00:21:13,861
I have friends in Hollywood
who were blacklisted
350
00:21:13,945 --> 00:21:19,826
when McCarthy was ringing the alarm
on the so-called communist threat,
351
00:21:19,909 --> 00:21:23,079
and, uh, they kept writing,
but under pseudonyms.
352
00:21:23,663 --> 00:21:25,331
You should do that. Hmm?
353
00:21:26,124 --> 00:21:28,126
Publish what you want
under a different name,
354
00:21:28,209 --> 00:21:29,961
and Werthers will be none the wiser.
355
00:21:30,044 --> 00:21:33,006
Yeah, but do you really think
that Werthers is gonna buy
356
00:21:33,089 --> 00:21:35,008
that I just quit
writing comic books altogether?
357
00:21:35,091 --> 00:21:37,093
It's so simplistic, no?
358
00:21:37,176 --> 00:21:38,594
Not if you muddy the waters.
359
00:21:38,678 --> 00:21:40,805
Like if you tell Werthers
360
00:21:40,888 --> 00:21:44,183
you're shifting your focus
off horror comic books
361
00:21:44,267 --> 00:21:48,271
to, I don't know,
happy animal comic books.
362
00:21:49,522 --> 00:21:51,858
Yeah. Yeah, like Super Duck.
363
00:21:51,941 --> 00:21:53,276
Yeah, exactly.
364
00:21:53,943 --> 00:21:56,029
Tell Werthers you're writing Super Duck,
365
00:21:56,112 --> 00:21:58,906
uh, keep churning out the horror stories
under an alias,
366
00:21:58,990 --> 00:22:00,533
and problem solved, right?
367
00:22:08,624 --> 00:22:09,625
God, Archie.
368
00:22:10,335 --> 00:22:11,502
What am I gonna do?
369
00:22:12,337 --> 00:22:13,796
What am I gonna do?
370
00:22:13,880 --> 00:22:15,256
What am I gonna do? I...
371
00:22:18,134 --> 00:22:19,134
Listen.
372
00:22:19,844 --> 00:22:22,305
Just put yourself in her hands, Kevin.
373
00:22:22,388 --> 00:22:24,348
Let nature take its course.
374
00:22:24,432 --> 00:22:25,767
Is that how your first time went?
375
00:22:29,896 --> 00:22:30,896
Kevin.
376
00:22:32,273 --> 00:22:33,733
I'm still a virgin too.
377
00:22:33,816 --> 00:22:35,151
You are?
378
00:22:35,985 --> 00:22:37,278
Yeah.
379
00:22:40,531 --> 00:22:42,241
Well, doesn't that beat all.
380
00:22:43,409 --> 00:22:45,078
If I'm a virgin and you're a virgin,
381
00:22:45,161 --> 00:22:47,205
why do I have to go to Twyla
and you don't?
382
00:22:47,288 --> 00:22:49,707
Why do I have to prove something
and you don't?
383
00:22:50,333 --> 00:22:52,418
It's funny how the world works, isn't it?
384
00:23:06,516 --> 00:23:09,727
We're so pleased
you've come to your senses, Mr. Jones.
385
00:23:09,811 --> 00:23:12,105
Just hold your horses.
We have some stipulations.
386
00:23:13,189 --> 00:23:16,484
And what exactly is your interest in this,
Mr. Rayberry?
387
00:23:16,567 --> 00:23:18,528
How do you even know Mr. Jones?
388
00:23:19,445 --> 00:23:22,532
Well, we are colleagues at Pep Comics.
389
00:23:22,615 --> 00:23:26,327
And I just most recently
started to mentor Jughead.
390
00:23:26,410 --> 00:23:29,038
How, uh, magnanimous of you.
391
00:23:30,123 --> 00:23:33,501
Jughead agrees to stop writing
horror comics, per this agreement.
392
00:23:33,584 --> 00:23:36,337
But I will continue
to write comics for Pep.
393
00:23:36,420 --> 00:23:38,840
Specifically Super Duck.
394
00:23:38,923 --> 00:23:41,509
It's wholesome, family-friendly fare.
395
00:23:41,592 --> 00:23:43,761
Unobjectionable, you might say.
396
00:23:44,262 --> 00:23:46,347
Well, although we appreciate
397
00:23:46,430 --> 00:23:50,017
Jughead's curbing the violent content
of his previous work...
398
00:23:50,101 --> 00:23:53,146
Okay, let's cut the bull, doc. Okay?
399
00:23:53,646 --> 00:23:57,441
What you were doing to my mentee
is unconstitutional.
400
00:23:59,277 --> 00:24:01,112
And if you continue to harass him,
401
00:24:01,195 --> 00:24:03,906
I am prepared to escalate this
as far as we need to go.
402
00:24:03,990 --> 00:24:07,201
Are you talking about the PTA,
Mr. Rayberry?
403
00:24:07,285 --> 00:24:09,287
Oh, I'm not talking about the PTA.
404
00:24:09,370 --> 00:24:12,957
I'm talking about a little organization
called the U.S. Supreme Court.
405
00:24:14,959 --> 00:24:18,713
So how does "Jones v. Board of Education"
sound to you?
406
00:24:18,796 --> 00:24:22,300
I'm curious if the justices would take
the same stance regarding comic books
407
00:24:22,383 --> 00:24:23,926
as you do, Mr. Werthers.
408
00:24:24,760 --> 00:24:28,598
Namely, that they are as problematic
as hardcore pornography?
409
00:24:28,681 --> 00:24:31,809
Gentlemen, let's not lose our heads.
410
00:24:31,893 --> 00:24:35,646
I'm sure none of us
wanna blow this thing out of proportion.
411
00:24:35,730 --> 00:24:37,064
And I'm not an expert,
412
00:24:37,148 --> 00:24:41,277
but it seems to me
that this Super Duck character is, uh...
413
00:24:43,112 --> 00:24:44,112
Quite harmless.
414
00:24:48,284 --> 00:24:50,244
Wouldn't you agree, Dr. Werthers?
415
00:24:52,205 --> 00:24:54,457
Yes. For the moment.
416
00:24:54,540 --> 00:24:55,583
Great.
417
00:24:55,666 --> 00:24:57,543
Well, this was just tops.
418
00:24:58,544 --> 00:25:00,087
So glad to be back.
419
00:25:05,301 --> 00:25:11,015
♪ I've been waiting a long time ♪
420
00:25:11,599 --> 00:25:14,352
♪ Just waiting... ♪
421
00:25:14,435 --> 00:25:17,897
So, baby, Julian tells me
you're cruising for a good time.
422
00:25:23,027 --> 00:25:25,279
Come. Dance with me.
423
00:25:29,408 --> 00:25:31,244
You can follow my lead.
424
00:25:32,578 --> 00:25:34,455
Let Twyla take care of you.
425
00:25:43,923 --> 00:25:44,757
Hello.
426
00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:45,840
Cooper.
427
00:25:49,136 --> 00:25:50,596
Here you go. Thank you.
428
00:25:55,351 --> 00:25:56,477
Betty.
429
00:25:57,061 --> 00:25:58,061
Archie.
430
00:25:59,939 --> 00:26:01,148
Thank you.
431
00:26:01,941 --> 00:26:03,442
Uh, what are you up to?
432
00:26:05,152 --> 00:26:06,404
Oh, you know, just...
433
00:26:07,196 --> 00:26:09,782
picking up dinner
on my way home from the studio.
434
00:26:13,160 --> 00:26:14,287
Say, uh, Betty.
435
00:26:15,579 --> 00:26:16,789
Can I ask you something?
436
00:26:18,165 --> 00:26:19,165
Yeah.
437
00:26:21,377 --> 00:26:22,420
Um...
438
00:26:24,046 --> 00:26:26,632
When you and Kevin were dating...
439
00:26:28,009 --> 00:26:29,009
what...?
440
00:26:29,051 --> 00:26:30,636
How was he?
441
00:26:31,345 --> 00:26:33,723
- What do you mean?
- I don't know. Uh, well...
442
00:26:35,057 --> 00:26:38,853
his dad's got it into his head
that Kevin's funny, you know?
443
00:26:38,936 --> 00:26:40,688
An off horse.
444
00:26:40,771 --> 00:26:42,398
A little girly, I guess?
445
00:26:47,403 --> 00:26:50,323
Archie, you don't expect me
to kiss and tell, do you?
446
00:26:50,406 --> 00:26:51,324
No.
447
00:26:51,407 --> 00:26:52,825
No, of course not.
448
00:26:54,243 --> 00:26:57,913
Anyway, hopefully after tonight,
Kevin will straighten out and fly right.
449
00:26:57,997 --> 00:27:00,374
What do you mean? Why?
What's happening tonight?
450
00:27:01,584 --> 00:27:04,879
Nothing.
God, I shouldn't have said anything.
451
00:27:04,962 --> 00:27:07,673
Archie, what do you mean?
Tell me what's happening tonight.
452
00:27:12,845 --> 00:27:14,096
Kevin, don't do it!
453
00:27:18,726 --> 00:27:19,935
Oh, God.
454
00:27:20,895 --> 00:27:22,688
Am I too late? Did something bad happen?
455
00:27:23,898 --> 00:27:26,650
The only thing that happened in here
was a whole lot of nothing.
456
00:27:28,110 --> 00:27:30,821
We were having a little dance party,
457
00:27:30,905 --> 00:27:33,366
I let down my hair a little,
458
00:27:33,449 --> 00:27:37,286
then he started bawling like a baby,
saying, "I can't do it."
459
00:27:42,291 --> 00:27:44,668
But tonight might not be a total bust.
460
00:27:45,252 --> 00:27:46,170
Come here, sugar.
461
00:27:46,253 --> 00:27:48,589
You're a hunk and a half. Come to Twyla.
462
00:27:48,672 --> 00:27:50,674
I'm just here for my friend.
463
00:27:53,135 --> 00:27:55,096
Oh, he's your friend, is he?
464
00:27:56,013 --> 00:27:57,098
That makes sense.
465
00:27:57,848 --> 00:27:58,933
Twyla knows the score.
466
00:27:59,016 --> 00:28:01,018
She's been around the block
more than once.
467
00:28:01,852 --> 00:28:02,852
Take him.
468
00:28:03,354 --> 00:28:04,688
He's all yours.
469
00:28:05,856 --> 00:28:07,483
Come on, Kev. Let's split.
470
00:28:11,153 --> 00:28:12,673
Why'd you come get me, Archie?
471
00:28:13,739 --> 00:28:15,074
I ran into Betty at Pop's.
472
00:28:16,409 --> 00:28:19,078
I told her what was going on
and she blew a gasket.
473
00:28:19,161 --> 00:28:20,371
She said I had to...
474
00:28:21,080 --> 00:28:24,625
come and save you from doing something
that might scar you for life.
475
00:28:24,708 --> 00:28:26,544
Boy, was she frosted.
476
00:28:26,627 --> 00:28:28,712
What am I gonna say to the guys, Archie?
477
00:28:28,796 --> 00:28:31,173
When they find out what happened,
what didn't happen,
478
00:28:31,257 --> 00:28:32,883
it'll be the end of me.
479
00:28:32,967 --> 00:28:35,261
I'm never gonna be a normal fella.
480
00:28:35,344 --> 00:28:36,846
Hey, what about this?
481
00:28:36,929 --> 00:28:39,849
We're gonna tell them
that you made it with Twyla.
482
00:28:39,932 --> 00:28:42,017
That you went all the way.
I'll back you up.
483
00:28:42,101 --> 00:28:44,061
And I'll give you some things to say.
484
00:28:44,562 --> 00:28:45,688
Things that I've...
485
00:28:46,689 --> 00:28:48,816
read in magazines
or heard my Uncle Frank say.
486
00:28:51,402 --> 00:28:52,695
Don't worry, Kevin.
487
00:28:54,071 --> 00:28:56,282
We're gonna get you on the stick
and sell it.
488
00:28:59,869 --> 00:29:00,869
Okay.
489
00:29:04,665 --> 00:29:06,542
No matter who you are,
490
00:29:06,625 --> 00:29:08,169
hot-rodder or cheerleader,
491
00:29:08,252 --> 00:29:09,545
bookworm or jock,
492
00:29:09,628 --> 00:29:11,297
square or beatnik,
493
00:29:11,380 --> 00:29:14,341
deep down, we all yearn
for the same things.
494
00:29:14,425 --> 00:29:17,386
Adventure, romance, excitement.
495
00:29:17,928 --> 00:29:20,723
Well, what if I told you
that for just 49 cents,
496
00:29:20,806 --> 00:29:23,184
you could have all that and more?
497
00:29:23,267 --> 00:29:26,228
Movies have the power
to transport us all over the world,
498
00:29:26,312 --> 00:29:30,149
but only if you see them in a theater
like the Babylonium.
499
00:29:31,275 --> 00:29:34,820
They're magical, special places
where it even feels good to cry.
500
00:29:34,904 --> 00:29:39,325
It's a scientific fact:
movies are better in movie theaters.
501
00:29:39,408 --> 00:29:40,701
Come to the Babylonium
502
00:29:40,785 --> 00:29:42,995
to laugh, to cry,
503
00:29:43,078 --> 00:29:47,041
to sit in the dark and experience
something powerful together,
504
00:29:47,124 --> 00:29:49,877
and fall in love with the movies again
505
00:29:49,960 --> 00:29:51,295
for the first time.
506
00:30:02,348 --> 00:30:03,557
Well, Mr. Lemley?
507
00:30:04,308 --> 00:30:06,519
What did you think of the commercial?
508
00:30:06,602 --> 00:30:07,686
Perfection.
509
00:30:08,270 --> 00:30:11,357
So why don't you buy a few choice spots
510
00:30:11,440 --> 00:30:13,984
and see if it gets word of mouth going?
511
00:30:14,068 --> 00:30:17,446
Veronica, I've been negotiating
the sale of the Babylonium
512
00:30:17,530 --> 00:30:19,740
to an interested party
for the last few months.
513
00:30:20,616 --> 00:30:22,827
The official offer finally came through.
514
00:30:23,911 --> 00:30:25,162
Who's buying it?
515
00:30:26,997 --> 00:30:29,333
Well, it's your parents.
516
00:30:30,543 --> 00:30:31,710
That's how I know them.
517
00:30:31,794 --> 00:30:32,878
My parents?
518
00:30:36,465 --> 00:30:39,468
They're not even
in the movie theater business.
519
00:30:40,594 --> 00:30:42,596
They don't even appreciate movies.
520
00:30:42,680 --> 00:30:44,348
Well, I assumed you knew.
521
00:30:45,391 --> 00:30:50,104
It's my understanding they're gonna
turn the Babylonium into a parking lot.
522
00:30:54,316 --> 00:30:57,778
Mr. Rayberry,
that Supreme Court bit was inspired.
523
00:30:57,862 --> 00:31:00,030
You had Dr. Werthers quaking in his boots,
524
00:31:00,114 --> 00:31:03,617
and Principal Featherhead's face
was priceless.
525
00:31:03,701 --> 00:31:05,828
Straw men fall easily.
526
00:31:05,911 --> 00:31:09,123
But I'm glad, though,
that you're going back to school,
527
00:31:09,206 --> 00:31:11,792
and that you get
to keep writing comic books.
528
00:31:11,876 --> 00:31:14,128
Mm. I wanted to talk to you about that.
529
00:31:14,211 --> 00:31:16,213
What if you were to really be my mentor?
530
00:31:17,882 --> 00:31:18,882
I'm open.
531
00:31:20,467 --> 00:31:24,471
Let me finish this milkshake
before we sign any adoption papers, huh?
532
00:31:24,555 --> 00:31:26,765
Right-o. Yeah. Yeah, of course.
533
00:31:28,183 --> 00:31:33,272
Look, I did wanna tell you, though,
that I've decided to re-read my novel.
534
00:31:35,149 --> 00:31:36,317
I think it's time.
535
00:31:54,877 --> 00:31:57,046
An Edward Hopper original.
536
00:31:59,465 --> 00:32:01,216
Bet you're worth a pretty penny.
537
00:32:05,512 --> 00:32:06,764
Dad?
538
00:32:07,932 --> 00:32:09,642
You had quite an eventful evening.
539
00:32:12,061 --> 00:32:14,396
I know that you went and saw Twyla.
540
00:32:16,106 --> 00:32:17,106
How?
541
00:32:17,608 --> 00:32:18,817
Did Julian tell you?
542
00:32:19,318 --> 00:32:23,238
Only because I asked for him
to suggest it to you in the first place.
543
00:32:26,325 --> 00:32:30,037
I thought maybe if the idea
came from one of your classmates,
544
00:32:30,120 --> 00:32:32,456
you might be more inclined to do it.
545
00:32:39,546 --> 00:32:41,507
- Well...
- I spoke to Twyla.
546
00:32:43,008 --> 00:32:46,095
Right after Archie came and rescued you.
547
00:32:48,055 --> 00:32:49,598
She told me what happened.
548
00:32:50,224 --> 00:32:52,101
That you couldn't or wouldn't.
549
00:32:54,770 --> 00:32:56,146
That you started to cry.
550
00:33:26,051 --> 00:33:28,429
I don't know
exactly what happened last night,
551
00:33:28,512 --> 00:33:30,139
but Tom just called,
552
00:33:30,222 --> 00:33:32,862
and he told me that Kevin
will no longer be on the basketball team.
553
00:33:36,020 --> 00:33:37,354
Poor Tom.
554
00:33:37,438 --> 00:33:40,315
I feel for him, having a son who's bent.
555
00:33:41,775 --> 00:33:42,818
Such a shame.
556
00:33:46,989 --> 00:33:48,574
What about your breakfast?
557
00:33:48,657 --> 00:33:50,159
Lost my appetite.
558
00:33:56,832 --> 00:33:57,875
Hmm.
559
00:34:01,295 --> 00:34:05,424
I've been mulling over our conversation
from yesterday, Mr. Lemley,
560
00:34:05,507 --> 00:34:08,135
and I'd like to buy the Babylonium.
561
00:34:09,970 --> 00:34:11,221
More specifically,
562
00:34:11,305 --> 00:34:15,017
I'd like to trade this painting
from my personal collection
563
00:34:15,100 --> 00:34:16,310
for your theater.
564
00:34:16,393 --> 00:34:17,561
I've spoken to Crestby's,
565
00:34:17,644 --> 00:34:20,397
and I think you'll find that,
on the open market,
566
00:34:20,481 --> 00:34:24,860
an original Hopper is worth much more
than what my parents are offering you.
567
00:34:26,737 --> 00:34:29,823
- I'm deep in negotiations with your folks.
- I know.
568
00:34:29,907 --> 00:34:30,991
But...
569
00:34:32,409 --> 00:34:35,370
our commercial wasn't false advertising.
570
00:34:36,205 --> 00:34:39,249
Going to the movies is special.
571
00:34:40,793 --> 00:34:43,253
Working here at the Babylonium,
even briefly,
572
00:34:43,337 --> 00:34:45,547
has rekindled something in me.
573
00:34:46,673 --> 00:34:49,218
Plus, wouldn't you feel better
574
00:34:49,301 --> 00:34:53,347
knowing that someone's keeping
the lights on and the projector running?
575
00:34:53,430 --> 00:34:58,060
Showing the Babylonium the same love
and respect that you have all these years?
576
00:35:04,399 --> 00:35:06,735
I don't know.
I think I messed up with Kevin, Betty.
577
00:35:06,819 --> 00:35:09,154
- I think I made things worse.
- No, Arch.
578
00:35:09,238 --> 00:35:13,450
You were trying to include him,
make him feel like a part of things.
579
00:35:14,201 --> 00:35:16,453
You protected him as best as you could.
580
00:35:17,621 --> 00:35:20,707
Well, isn't this a sight to behold?
581
00:35:21,375 --> 00:35:23,961
My mother and father
wanted to invite any and all students
582
00:35:24,044 --> 00:35:26,338
to this afternoon's taping
of Riverdale Grandstand.
583
00:35:26,421 --> 00:35:28,541
- Why today's?
- Because it's our 50th episode
584
00:35:28,590 --> 00:35:31,677
and my parents wanna see
some fresh faces on screen.
585
00:35:32,386 --> 00:35:33,595
Toodle-loo.
586
00:35:37,808 --> 00:35:39,810
I can't believe
how screwed up the world is.
587
00:35:39,893 --> 00:35:41,145
I know.
588
00:35:41,228 --> 00:35:42,646
The hypocrisy.
589
00:35:42,729 --> 00:35:46,150
No matter what we're going through,
what our parents are putting us through,
590
00:35:46,233 --> 00:35:50,654
as long as we show up on Grandstand
smiling and dancing like trained seals,
591
00:35:50,737 --> 00:35:52,364
everything is peachy keen.
592
00:35:52,447 --> 00:35:55,450
And all the grownups do
is tell us what to think, how to act.
593
00:35:55,534 --> 00:35:57,161
How to dress, who to date.
594
00:35:57,244 --> 00:36:00,956
They're trying to control our lives,
and there's not a thing we can do.
595
00:36:03,709 --> 00:36:04,709
Maybe.
596
00:36:07,129 --> 00:36:08,505

00:37:56,154 --> 00:37:57,154
Cut to commercial...
630
00:38:02,411 --> 00:38:04,955
Do you have any idea
631
00:38:05,038 --> 00:38:07,249
how much trouble
you could get the station in?
632
00:38:07,332 --> 00:38:08,792
You're out of control.
633
00:38:08,875 --> 00:38:10,294
No, Mom.
634
00:38:10,377 --> 00:38:12,671
I am in complete control.
635
00:38:12,754 --> 00:38:15,007
I knew exactly what I was doing and why.
636
00:38:17,551 --> 00:38:18,802
What?
637
00:38:18,885 --> 00:38:20,762
Now, Mother, may I please be excused
638
00:38:20,846 --> 00:38:23,223
from future episodes
of Riverdale Grandstand?
639
00:38:27,602 --> 00:38:29,021
You are off the show!
640
00:38:30,647 --> 00:38:33,108
But you broke my heart, Betty.
641
00:38:43,618 --> 00:38:45,287
You rang, Ms. Veronica?
642
00:38:46,830 --> 00:38:48,081
Yes, Smithers.
643
00:38:49,124 --> 00:38:51,793
I'd like you to send
a telegram to my parents.
644
00:38:53,712 --> 00:38:56,173
Dear Mom and Dad. Stop.
645
00:38:56,256 --> 00:39:00,344
I am now the new owner
of the Babylonium. Stop.
646
00:39:00,427 --> 00:39:03,930
Which will never
turn into a parking lot. Stop.
647
00:39:05,891 --> 00:39:08,352
My best to Uncle Orson. Stop.
648
00:39:16,151 --> 00:39:17,319
Hey, Kev.
649
00:39:17,402 --> 00:39:18,402

00:39:23,784 --> 00:39:26,745
Sorry, Archie,
my basketball days are over.
653
00:39:26,828 --> 00:39:28,080
Yeah, I heard.
654
00:39:28,163 --> 00:39:30,457
I was actually hoping
to break bread with you guys.
655
00:39:30,540 --> 00:39:34,044

plays, movie stars.

Might I have a word with you in my office?
672
00:40:34,146 --> 00:40:36,231
Your mother called me last night.
673
00:40:36,314 --> 00:40:37,983
She's very concerned.
674
00:40:38,066 --> 00:40:40,277
About you and your...
675
00:40:41,069 --> 00:40:42,612
erratic behavior.
676
00:40:42,696 --> 00:40:47,242
Yes, well, a teenage girl
with a mind and desires of her own,
677
00:40:47,325 --> 00:40:49,411
it's all very concerning, isn't it?
678
00:40:51,705 --> 00:40:52,831
Hmm.
679
00:41:01,715 --> 00:41:05,093
You're so tortured, Betty.
680
00:41:07,888 --> 00:41:09,848
What are we going to do with you?
681
00:41:12,476 --> 00:41:15,395
And with Dr. Werthers
shifting his glowering attention
682
00:41:15,479 --> 00:41:16,646
from me to Betty...
683
00:41:18,231 --> 00:41:21,610
I was now able to continue
my budding comic career on twin tracks
684
00:41:22,694 --> 00:41:24,821
with the prospect
of Mr. Rayberry as my mentor
685
00:41:24,905 --> 00:41:28,033
keeping me up and typing
