Previously on Riverdale...

This is the Black Hood.

I want to cleanse
Riverdale of sinners.

No.

Mr. Svenson... you scared me.

I mean, really? Mom?

You talked trash
about the Serpents

when you yourself were one?

FP had a little accident.

What can we do?

Just pick up
a crate on the Southside,

deliver it
to an address in Greendale.

You do not want to be
in bed with a snake charmer.

And if Penny Peabody
reaches out,

don't respond.

No. You said that this was
going to be a one and done.

And I am just
getting started with you.

You think the Riverdale Reaper
is the Black Hood?

I wouldn't be surprised
if it was the same man.

There was a family
living out near Fox Forest.

Someone broke in
and shot 'em all dead.

Some say
he never left Riverdale.

Like the Red Death s howing
up in an Edgar Allan Poe story,

the Black Hood
had come to Riverdale.

With that grimmest
of reapers looming over us,

how did we cope?

In the case
of Archie and Veronica,

it was through carnal defiance.

Ugh! Get a room, Xenomorphs!

With every kiss and embrace,

they seemed to be saying:

"You have no power
over me, Death."

In fact, "Varchie"
became the opposite of death.

In Archie's bedroom...

In his garage...

Even in the Pembrooke.

After all, if our young lovers
dared to defy the Black Hood,

why not risk Hiram Lodge's
wrath as well?

- Hey.
- Hmm.

Are you sure your parents aren't
gonna come back any time soon?

What if they catch us like this?

The tasting menu at Pourquoi
is 13 courses, Archie.

We have hours yet.

What?

You've always wanted to make
it in front of a roaring fire?

No, just... I love you, Ronnie.

- You, uh, wanna watch Netflix?
- I wonder what's on HBO.

Maybe I should go on the off
chance your parents come back.

Yeah, or at a minimum,
we should get dressed.

I'm gonna go...
I have to do this thing.

I'll text you.

Archie...

this was as always, amazing.

Sorry, there's no service
in the bowels of City Hall.

What'd you find?

Any truth to what that creepy truck
driver said about that murdered family?

Yes, shockingly, Freddy Krueger
didn't lie to me.

A family of four was murdered

by someone that the press
called "the Riverdale Reaper."

The victims were Jim and Mary
Ellen Conway and their kids.

Tommy was ten, and Sue was nine.

Reaper was never caught
or identified,

so he could be our Black Hood,

but I'm dubious.
He would be in his 60's by now.

Why did he do it... Kill them?

The reporter of the article
talked to a sheriff at the time

who thought...
Killer chose them at random

- or because their house was isolated.
- Where was it?

Edge of Fox Forest,
down some service road.

There's a picture of it.

Oh, my God.

Jughead, I've been
to this house.

The Black Hood sent me
to it, as part of his game.

Well, then there's definitely a link
between the Hood and the Reaper.

We should talk to Keller.

Pull the files from the murders.

At least get a list
of all the players.

No, Jughead,
I can't go to Sheriff Keller.

Not after I accused him
of being the Black Hood.

Right, yeah,
that would be awkward.

You could go to the house.

I can't go back there, Jug.

He made me look in a mirror,

you know, what I saw
staring back at me...

I don't want to do that again.

Then you don't have to, okay?

Hello?

Yeah, I'll accept the charges.

So the reason
we called you guys in here...

My dad's getting out of jail.

Jug, that's... That's great.

Yeah, what heralded
this miracle?

Uh, overcrowding at the jail,

I guess the judge
reviewed my dad's case

and after Cheryl's testimony
it was...

A perfect storm.

What do you need from us, Jug?

Both of us. We have a new lead
on the Black Hood case.

And Jughead and I,
we were wondering

if you guys would
follow up on it for us.

We can give you all of
the details, the articles.

It's just that
I have to be there for my dad

to help with his re-entry, so.

Uh, yeah and I'm just...

I'm taking a break
from the Black Hood.

Wait, so,

you want us to be

you guys?

Essentially, yes.

Why, is there a problem
with that?

Oh, my God, Josie, your back,

it's like a sailor's rope!

- What?
- All these tension knots.

Luckily, I just picked up

a new bottle
of lavender essential oil.

Turn around.

Uh, okay.

Girls, I'm so sorry, I didn't
know anyone was still in here.

No, It's okay, Mr. Svenson,

Oh, my God, Josie.
It's so not okay.

Take your male gaze
and your male privilege

and get out
of the women's locker room!

Of course, my apologies.
I should've knocked.

Can you believe that?

He should be fired
and investigated,

the peeping Tom.

- Sheriff Keller.
- Veronica.

What was he doing here?

The shadow of the Black Hood
has finally landed on our home.

We received a letter.

What? What did it say?

The usual.

That we'll be targeted and
punished for our sinful ways.

Well, don't let it
ruin your day.

According to Keller,
apparently dozens of households

received the exact same letter.

Well, I don't know
about those other people,

but we're actually sinners.

The Pembrooke is a fortress

and Andre is trained
in the martial arts.

What about when I go to school?

- Or shopping?
- He'll drive you,

and if he's not available,
we'll hire a car service.

Also,
your father and I have talked

and we wouldn't
mind seeing more of Archie.

He's brawny and devoted to you.

Wait, uh, Mom,

before you leave,
I wanted to ask

if I could borrow
the station wagon tomorrow?

Why?

FP's getting released from jail.

So, Jughead and I,

we're gonna pick him up
and treat him to Pop's.

They're letting FP out?

And you're gonna
hear it eventually,

so, it might as well be from me.

Don't freak out,

Jughead is a Serpent now,
officially.

Betty...

I wish I could say
I was surprised.

Jughead is important to me.

FP is important to Jughead.

So I'm asking, Mom,

will you try to give him
the benefit of the doubt,

for me?

I have an announcement to make.

My dad's getting out.

And when he does,

I'll bring him up to speed

about our plans
with Mayor McCoy.

That's brilliant.

Do you have a problem
with that, Tall Boy?

Your old man? No.

I got no problem with him.

But you want us
to sit down with the Mayor.

I do. He's right.

I think we can bring
the Southside back.

But it's going to take work and
it's going to take compromise.

Bring the Southside back.

You've been here
all of five minutes.

Tall Boy, I am sick of you
acting like a little bitch.

Whispering behind my back
that I'm half a Serpent

or that I don't belong here.

Why don't we put it to a vote?

If you guys think
what I'm doing is wrong,

I'll step aside.

All those who stand with Jughead

and think that Tall Boy
should shut the hell up...

- My parents are in their room.
- Good.

That thing Betty and
Jughead asked us to do,

investigate the murder house,

- I wanna do it.
- Yeah, me too.

My parents
got a threatening letter.

- What? From the Black Hood?
- Maybe,

or maybe it's was somebody
pretending to be the Black Hood.

- Ronnie...
- Mmm.

Are we good?

Don't stop, Archie.

I don't want to.

Can we talk about what I said?

Archie,

I wanna be with you,

and you want to be with me.

Can't that be enough
for right now?

While we focus on the case?

What's wrong, Archie?
Something you wanna get off your chest?

Yeah, actually.

Me and Ronnie are in
kind of a weird place.

Things have been
pretty intense lately.

Something weird happened
with Archie.

Well, to be honest,

I'm not sure if it even
really happened, but...

He may or may not have

said the "L" word to me.

I said "I love you" to her, Dad.

And she didn't say it back.

And yes, she heard me.

Which, if he did,
I think it's...

Too soon, don't you guys agree?

I wouldn't get too
in your head about that, son.

I mean, those three words,

people are often on
different schedules.

It doesn't matter
what Archie said.

Or didn't say,
that's my preference.

It's about whether or not
you're ready to hear it.

Ah!

- Hey, Betty.
- Hi, Mr. Jones.

Alice!

Is it true
what they say about men

who have just been released
from prison, FP?

What do they say?

That they're incredibly
sexually frustrated.

- Mom! What?
- Wow.

Seat belts, guys.

The Black Hood
is targeting sinners,

so, I'd watch my back
if I were you, FP,

especially once you re-join
that gang of hoodlums.

The Serpents aren't...

I'm not going back
to the Serpents, Alice.

I thought a lot about this
while I was in Shankshaw,

and I'm done with Serpent life.

It's gonna be
one last ride for my boy and I.

But it's too much
of a slippery slope for me.

- The Serpents need you, Dad.
- Jughead needs you, Mr. Jones.

And what, pray tell,
will you be doing

with all of your extra time, FP?

Working, Warden Cooper.

Saw a "Help Wanted"
sign in the window.

Thought I'd talk to Pop
about picking up some shifts.

Let's hope your plans
don't come crashing down

once you start drinking again.

Actually, I'm in AA.

Started in jail and
I don't plan on stopping.

Mmm.

- Sheriff.
- We wanted to talk to you about a cold case.

About a family
that was murdered in Fox Forest

40 years ago.

Your receptionist said that the
files on the case were missing.

Is it possible they were stolen?

As part of a cover-up?

Now, now, hold on.
Sometimes with cold cases,

the lead officer
will take the files home,

so he can keep working on them.

Who would have been
the lead officer on this case?

Back then? Multiple homicide?

My guess would be
Sheriff Howard.

Do you know where he is?

Sheriff Howard died
two years ago, now.

But his daughter, still lives
in town here, Margaret.

Get her contact information.

Maybe she can help.

My name is Veronica Lodge.

I'm calling about
one of your father's cases,

the Conway murders?

Here we go again.
What about 'em?

My colleague and I are writing
a retrospective on the murders,

and we were wondering if...

My dad was obsessed
with the killings.

He called the house where they
happened the Devil's house.

He'd go to that place
day and night for hours,

trying to
put the pieces together.

If you ask me, my father
lost his mind in that house.

Now, I am done
talking about this, okay?

Don't call me again.

- Ronnie...
- Don't say it, Archie.

We have to go to that house.

The Devil's house.

What if he's home?

Things got ugly
when you were away.

I asked myself every day
what you would do,

if you were here.

Has Penny bothered you?

Figured she's the one
who greased my wheels.

I did a job for her.

What kind of job?

It's a one-time thing.

Figured it best
not to ask too many questions.

We're squared away. For good.

You know, when I was 16,

my old man kicked me out
and told me to go to hell.

Instead, I joined the Serpents.

And then the army,
and then back again.

I don't want
that life for you, Jug.

I want you to go to college,

get out of this
godforsaken town.

I ran the gauntlet.

I fought with the Serpents.

And for them, I have to stay.

I wanna stay.

And I need your blessing.

Just promise me
you'll keep writing.

I will.

I do every day.

Y'all finished?

Yeah, thanks, Dad.

- Thank you.
- Thank you.

- Josie.
- Yeah.

Playing a car dealership opening

is barely a step
above amateur porn.

Reggie's texting me that his dad

is gonna pay me $5,000

for five songs.

As long as he gets to escort me.

Clean that up, Plebe.

The way you did
my brother's blood.

Jug, don't.

We'll get you
another milkshake right away.

On the house.

My dad used to be a king.

A leader of men.

Now he's being demeaned by
the likes of Cheryl Blossom.

He deserves to be honored,
not humiliated.

So, why don't we do just that?

Seriously, why not
throw your dad

a retirement party
fit for a king?

Don't worry,
I'll take care of everything.

You have a stage.

Would you be open to me
bringing in a karaoke machine?

For FP's retirement?

Sure, why not.

Also, Toni, one of the reasons
I wanted to talk to you,

beyond the party-planning, is...

I've been walking
the razor's edge

since Jughead
joined the Serpents

and all I've been thinking is...

You know,
as soon as FP gets home,

everything will get better

because he'll be there
to protect Jughead

and make sure
he doesn't get hurt.

Yeah, I'm following you.

I mean, with FP
out of the picture...

But that's my whole point.

I do worry.

So, I wanna keep
an eye on Jughead,

myself.

Make sure that as deep into these
snake-infested waters as he goes,

he doesn't do something that...
you know, puts him in danger.

So, what?

You wanna be a Serpent?

Let's say Serpent-adjacent.

But, yeah,
part of his world, this world.

Shut it, Byrdie.

Sorry, Sweet Valley High,

if you wanna join the club,
you gotta do the dance...

Serpent dance.

Excuse me, Serpent dance?

It's an outdated,
sexist Serpent tradition.

Tried to get it outlawed,
but misogyny dies hard.

You don't wanna know.

Uh, yeah, I do.

I wanna know everything.

A party? No, no, no, no.

The problem is,
I'm trying to keep the Serpents

in my rear view mirror,
remember?

It's one night. Not even,
it's like three hours.

You've done right
by the Serpents,

more than right.
Let them do right by you.

Come on, it's the end of an era.

Okay.

- Okay, let's do it.
- Great.

It's Archie.

Don't bogart the egg rolls.

What the hell
do you want, Penny?

We have business.

How fast can you get to Pop's?

No. No, I told you that I'm out.

That I'm done.

Don't keep me
waiting long, little doggie,

or I'll have your father
back behind bars

before I finish
my cup of burnt coffee.

I won't be held hostage by you.

I did my one favor, I'm out.

No, no, you have debts to pay.

And ours is
an ongoing arrangement.

You know what, Penny?

I'm about to have
a sit-down with Mayor McCoy.

She's not really so big on
the whole drug dealing thing

and I'm sure that
she would love to know

who took over
Clifford Blossom's operation.

You'd need proof to make
an accusation like that stick.

Like the video I have
of you and your pal

making that delivery for me.

What do you think of that?

I think that an attack
against me, or my father,

is an attack against
all of the Serpents.

And not even some
fuzzy surveillance footage

of me delivering a crate

is going to stop us
from coming for you.

Your girlfriend...

Betty Cooper, I believe?

She's quite fetching.

What did you say?

All snakes
have a soft underbelly.

She's yours, am I right?

Now I'm regretting throwing
your gun in Sweetwater River.

If Sheriff Howard kept coming
back here year after year,

there must be a reason why.

Something that didn't,
or doesn't add up.

So, what does
the article say happened?

The Reaper came at night,

when the rest of the town
was getting ready for bed.

He killed the mother,
Mary Ellen Conway, first.

Maybe over there.

He killed the father,
Jim Conway, in the kitchen.

He was rushing to save his wife.

He was shot
point-blank in the chest.

The kids were still
in their bedrooms.

Hiding.

My God, Archie.

They were hiding under the bed.

Archie? It was a family
of four that was killed, right?

Yeah, why?

There's something weird here...

Three sets of initials.

These are Sheriff Howard's
files, his notes.

He kept them here so he could
keep working on the case.

Does it say anything
about a third child?

With the letters "J" and "C"?

Wait, wait, turn it back.

Oh, my God, Archie, there.

The Conways
were a family of five.

Why so sad?

It's great news about your dad.

I guess that means
the Snake Charmer came through.

What? She hasn't called you for
any more favors again, has she?

That deal was a favor.

A one favor. Technically,
I don't owe her anything.

Oh, Jones.
Let's hope you're right.

It's no problem,
we can pick the trays up.

Thanks, Pop.
Sorry for the short notice.

Bye.

Trays for what?

Juggie is throwing
a retirement party

for FP at the Whyte Wyrm.

And I'm helping him organize.

Before you object, Mom,

need I remind you,
you were a Serpent?

Betty won't listen to reason,
so I'm telling you, FP,

if she even thinks about
putting on a Serpent jacket,

- I'll have your head.
- I'm working.

I won't have our kids make
the same mistakes we did.

They weren't all mistakes.

If you're that worried, come to the party.
Chaperone her.

Are you high on fumes? I can't.

Yes, you can. Stop by.

Say hi to some old friends.

- Hal would never come.
- Well, then leave him.

At home.

So, the real story
was in the Sheriff's notebook.

There was a third child,

Joseph Conway,
who survived the massacre.

They hid his identity,
changed his name,

so he could lead a normal life.

- Yeah.
- According to Sheriff Howard's notes,

he was adopted by
another family in Riverdale

and presumably, enrolled
at a local high school.

We got a picture of the kid.

If we match that boy

to one of the students
at Riverdale High

during the years
he would've attended...

Then he might be able to tell us

how the Conway murders are
connected to the Black Hood.

Or he is the Black Hood.

Just go with me here.

Let's say that our mystery kid

did end up
surviving the slaughter,

maybe even saw it.

That would've messed
him up for life.

Yeah, and somehow,
for some reason,

he could be blaming
the town for what happened.

And now is punishing us for it.

So, basically, we just have to
go through all these yearbooks,

page by page,
and see if we find a match.

So, not quite
a needle in a haystack.

What?

Uh, we just have to get ready
for a party that we're hosting.

It's my dad's
retirement party, so...

- Oh.
- Oh.

No, you guys should come.

Yeah, no,
I'm renting a karaoke machine.

It's not a big deal.

- You should come. You guys should come.
- If you want.

Ronnie, can we take
a break and talk about...

Oh, my God.

Is that him?

Could be, yeah.

Mr. Svenson!

Yes.

We know who you are...
Joseph Conway.

Hey!

Why did you run, Mr. Svenson?

I got scared.

No one's called me
Joe Conway in decades.

We read about your family.

We know you're
the only one that survived.

If you've been tempted
to find justice...

I found justice.

What do you mean?

The night it happened,

I heard gunshots

and I escaped
out of my bedroom window.

I could've run
into the woods, but I didn't.

I wanted to see him
leave my house.

I saw him covered
in my family's blood.

I saw his face.

You know who killed your family?

A con man,

a preacher passing through town.

Next day, a group of men took me
to the motel where he was staying.

I pointed him out,

they took him away,

and they killed him.

I'm not sure how.

What happened
to the men who did that?

Nothing.

Justice had been served.

It was never reported,
never investigated.

The town demanded
blood for blood.

You're sounding an awful lot
like the Black Hood right now.

Where were you the morning
Fred Andrews was shot?

Ronnie...

And the night
Ms. Grundy was killed?

- And Moose and Midge,
- Ronnie. Ronnie!

- And the Sugarman.
- That's enough!

I've looked
into the Black Hood's eyes.

We were wrong.

It's not him.

Andre's got the car
waiting for you,

but I wanted to ask,
how things are with you and Archie?

We've been working
on this side project,

and I'm realizing that

one of the reasons
I threw myself into it

was to avoid talking
about the love

that dares not speak its name.

Why can't I say it, Mom?

And why does it
have to be such a big deal?

I mean,
you and Daddy never say it.

I mean, I don't think
I've ever heard you say it...

Once.

Oh.

Hey, bud, picking up Veronica?

No, I think
I'm just gonna meet her there.

Oh.

So I take it
things didn't go so well

on the other side
of the four-letter-word, huh?

When I'm with Veronica,

as dark as things get

and they've been
getting pretty dark,

she makes me feel like
everything is gonna be fine.

She makes things fun.

I don't wanna lose that.

You won't.

You just gotta
give her a little time

and space.

You're a great kid, Arch.

Really, get out there,
have a good time.

Take the pressure off.

- Archie, hey.
- Hey.

I just did
a sweep of the perimeter.

You good?

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Ronnie's almost here.

We're gonna clear the air,
it's gonna be a good night.

Here's hoping.

- I'll catch you later, okay?
- Yeah.

Jones, you look nervous.

Want a drink?

No, I'm good.
I'm just getting a lay of the land.

Wow, Betty.

Mrs. Cooper.
You look incredible.

Tell me about it.

Unfortunately, I couldn't convince
this one to dress appropriately,

Hog Eye, get me...

Tequila, straight up,

- hold the worm.
- Hold the worm.

I was talkin' to you.

I have a surprise for you.
Later.

Mmm. Hit me, Hog Eye.

Honey, what do you want?
A Shirley Temple?

- Just give me two.
- Two.

- Hey.
- Hey.

Can we talk?

Not about Svenson,

not about the Black Hood,

not about some murder house.
About us, Ronnie.

Archie, this is a party.

Must we discuss
serious things tonight?

I just want you to know.

What I said?

That was about me and what I was
feeling in that specific moment

and you shouldn't feel any
pressure to say it back to me.

Oh, Archie.

Thank you for understanding.

Yeah, you're welcome.

Uh, yeah.

I, uh, I signed us up for a duet

that Donnie Darko song you love

or hopefully,
strongly like at least.

- Archie...
- Or can you not do that, either?

No, I can sing with you.

Veronica...

There he is!

Quite the show.

Thanks, Betty.

Here you go.

Let's give her
a round of applause!

And show her some of that.

Serpent hospitality
we're known for.

You know what? I've been
in and out of the Serpents

since I was younger than my son.

And it's been a... A wild ride.

Good times, bad times,

but through it all,
the Serpents stuck by my side,

while most other people
turned their backs on me.

My own family included.

Now, the letter of the law

says that I can't be here

in the Serpent den.

That I can't associate
with my friends.

- My real family.
- Yeah!

My blood.

You're the man!

But I've been
thinking about that.

And it'll be a cold day in hell

before a snake lets
a pig tell him what to do.

All right, Coyote Ugly,
let's go.

No, I'm staying.

Elizabeth, you're coming
with me now.

No, I'm staying.

Well, I can't.

Northside wants me
outta this gang?

Well, they better bring a coffin

because FP Jones isn't retiring!

I am not going
gently into the night!

I'm here to stay!

So, bring the fire!

Yeah!

What happened to retiring?

I know about the Snake Charmer.

And the delivery you did
and the debt you owe her.

It was the one thing, son.

The one thing
I asked you not to do.

I can fix this.
Let me just talk to her.

No. No. I'm in, you're out.

Penny's my problem now.

You broke my heart, Jughead.

Shots, let's line 'em up!

Hail to the king!

- To the king!
- To the king!

Ronnie, what I said,
it doesn't matter

if you don't wanna
say it back to me.

But it does. And it should.

And...

for whatever messed-up reason,

Archie, whatever
deep-seated issues I have,

I can't let myself
go there with you.

I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry.

Home, Andre.

Yes, Miss Veronica.

Hey.

What's wrong?

Was it the dance?

It's everything.

And, yeah...
Why would you do that?

I wanted to be a part of this.

The Serpents, your world.

Why?

Archie knew to cut bait.

Now I'm dragging you down.

I'm dragging my dad down.

Jug, he's still figuring it out.

And It's going to be okay.

We'll figure out
what we have to do, together.

No. Betty... Mmm-mmm.

Not together.

Betty, if you stay,

I don't know
if I can protect you anymore.

You might get...

You probably will get hurt.

I can't let that happen to you.

It's not your decision to make.

Actually...

yeah, it is.

How many times, Jug?

How many time are we
going to push each other away?

Until it sticks.

I was my dad's one chance

at going straight
and I wrecked it.

I'm not going to
destroy you, too.

Just tell me what happened, Jug.

Jug!

Tell me.

Please,

go home.

That night, I realized

it was like we'd been playing
a game of Snakes and Ladders.

Me, Betty, Archie, Veronica.

And in one fell swoop,

we all slid off
the board and into free fall

and not just us, other people.

Maybe innocent, maybe not,

had been dragged into our game,

as old wounds reopened.

And as feelings
that had long been buried

shook loose.

And a boy looked out his
window at the girl next door

as if for the very first time.
