Previously on Riverdale...

{gunshofl -i propose a truce.

You don't make
a move against me,

and I won't make
a move against you.

You can't fight your destiny.

The warden also called Archie
a red paladin.

They marked you for sacrifice.

I gave it to myself.

I let my guard down
for a second.

Maybe it's time you make
this thing come to a head.

You've got to take drastic action,
boy. Words aren't gonna do it.

I agree. Something that's
going to give us purpose.

Mobilizing that gang to search for
Archie's lost boy gave me the idea.

We've come up with a plan
to deputize the serpents.

We're in escrow.
I sold the house.

To who?

Some anonymous buyer.

Oh, my god!

- And we'll figure out a payment plan for the rest.
- Understood.

In exchange, you're gonna
lend me those sweet wheels.

- Not Bella.
- Oh, wait, one more thing.

Don't tell jughead
about our business.

Everything's going
just how you said, mom.

Got dad wrapped around my pinky.

We moved to the right place
at the right time.

I could feel it.

What exactly is
the American dream?

For my dad, on the Eve
of his 50th birthday,

the American dream was this.

A father,

a mother,

a son,

a daughter,

a loyal hound,

food on the table.

The only thing missing was...

Eat up.

Because when we're done,
we're taking a little ride.

Where to, mom?

Well, that's a surprise, jb.

But I think you're gonna like it.
You too, old man.

Who you calling old?

Aw. Come here.

You're all cockeyed.

What are we doing here?

Well, it's an early birthday gift
for your dad.

I mean, for all of us.

Just closed on it
a few days ago.

- Gladys, uh...
- Mom...

What?

What the hell is
Alice Cooper doing in my house?

Mrs. Jones.

Are you the anonymous buyer?

What the hell happened here?

0h, uh...

We had a minor mishap
with a candle.

Nothing that a fresh coat of paint
or a new set of curtains won't fix.

I am so confused. You sold
our house to the joneses?

Not to me.

I bought it.

I made an all-cash offer online.

- Mom, we can't move in here.
- Why the hell not?

Well, because
it's Betty's house.

There's definitely been some
sort of misunderstanding.

I think we should all
just walk away from this.

That won't be necessary.

- At least not as far as I'm concerned.
- Mom.

No, this house is my past.
I just want to be done with it.

We're obviously
not going to move in.

How much you wanna bet?

My mom wants to sell it, your
mom wants to buy it. It's done.

Well, if that is the case,

one good thing is that you
could just stay in your room.

Live with us.

I don't know.

Jug, living with your family when I
don't even know your mom that well...

What were you gonna do?

Crash at vee's,

which I think
I should still do until I...

Figure things out. Is that okay?

Yeah, of course.

You still up for breakfast
with a marked man?

Here's the deal, Archie.

I checked with my dad,

I pulled all the files on warden
Norton after he committed suicide,

and I cleared out his office,
and I found this.

Quest card.

"Kill the red paladin."
Like the one Ricky had.

These two cards are identical.

That's the same design,
same card stock.

To me, that indicates that someone printed
out multiple "kill the red paladin" cards,

put them out into the world.

We need to find out who.

I know where to start.

So, what do you think?

Perfect for Quebec.
N'est-ce pas?

I don't understand.
Who's going to Quebec?

I thought, since you've been working
so hard with the pretty poisons,

it might be good for the two
of us to get away together.

So, I booked us a spring break
ski trip to mont blanc!

Me and the pretty poisons

were planning on doing
a road trip to sugar lake.

Fine.

We don't have to go
to the mountains.

We don't have to go
anywhere, ever.

I'm not saying that. Cheryl.

I...

Shoot

sorry, I'm running late
for work.

Can we talk about this later?

Archie. Long time.
How have you been?

I was doing pretty good,
Mr. Lodge,

until a homeless kid
stabbed me in my house.

Did this person break in?

But he did have one of these.

Do you recognize it?

I, um...

You started that quest,

"kill the red paladin,"
with warden Norton.

And tall boy,

when he was working for you,
referred to me as the red paladin.

Even if he did, Archie,
it's all in the past.

We have a truce, you and I.

Mr. Lodge, did you give
a quest card to warden Norton?

- Yes.
- Did you give out any others?

I printed out an even dozen
of these quest cards.

I gave three to Norton
and nine to tall boy to...

Distribute amongst the more...

Fanatical players.

Well, truce or no truce,

the clock you wound up
is still running, Mr. Lodge.

There's other players out there
biding their time, waiting to kill me

that I now need to track down.

Right.

I might be able
to help you with that.

While I briefly
distributed fizzle rocks,

my soldiers like tall boy would
make drop-offs and pickups

to various hot spots
around town.

- "Hot spots"?
- Yes.

Where like-minded individuals
would gather to do fizzle rocks

and play gryphons and gargoyles.

Here's a list of the locations.

The players you're looking for
might be there.

Hey, red hot,

what's in the basket?

Freshly baked cherry scones
for my t.T.

A gesture of goodwill
after a disagreement we had.

Do you know
where she's stationed tonight?

You'll see her downstairs.

M“ call your girlfriend j'j'

ii it's time you had the talk j'j'

j'j' give you reasons j'j'

j'j' say it's not her fault j'j'

j'j' but you just met
somebody new j'j'

j'j' don't you tell her
how I give you something j'j'

j'j' that you never even
knew you missed j'j'

I swear I didn't know Gladys
was even looking at real estate.

Listen, fp, I...

I want you to know that house
means nothing to me.

Wish I could say the same
about you and Gladys.

Alice, uh...

She and I, we're...

We're still married.

Gladys left you and jughead,
don't forget that.

That was my fault.

All right?
I was a no-good husband, a...

A rotten father.

Do you love her, fp?

She's the mother of my children.

And me?

Do you love me?

Doesn't matter now.

It's over.

I'm sorry.

Ronnie,

can we talk business?

Always.

What's up?

I've invested
a lot of time here.

Being a bartender,
a bouncer, a deliveryman.

Pit boss, you name it.

I've also made sacrifices,

like giving my car to Gladys.

So, I've been thinking,

I want to be
your business partner.

Reggie,

you have been nothing
but helpful and dedicated,

but I still owe a hefty debt
to my father and Gladys.

It just wouldn't be wise for me to
begin another partnership right now.

Veronica, I know what I'm worth.

You should know it, too.

Believe me, I do.

But to quote my abuelita,

no one walks on water
in my place...

Except me.

Mom, can I ask you
about buying the Cooper house?

Sure, what about it?

Well, it seems awfully
convenient, doesn't it,

that particular house?

It also seems pretty permanent.

Yeah, I've been looking at real
estate in Riverdale for a while now.

Where'd you get
that kind of money?

I sold the chop shop in Toledo.

Is there a problem, jug?

It's just, since you've
been back, you've made

what some people would call
some shady moves.

Buying the Cooper house,
foisting the gargoyles on me.

I'm sorry, why are you so
suspicious of me all of a sudden?

Well, because we haven't had a single
conversation since you've been back.

Heck, I don't know what your
plan is. What you're doing here.

It did me good

to see you
and your dad in Toledo.

It reminded me of
what I'd be missing.

The entire family together.

As for what I'm gonna do here,

I am going to get jellybean
in school,

find myself a job,

maybe at a garage.

How does that all sound to you?

It sounds good.

Is it true?

0h, jughead.

Look,

your dad has got
a sweet gig now.

We've got a house
with rooms for everyone.

I'm looking at this whole thing
like a do-over,

a chance to be a real family.

That's all I want.

Oh, no, that's not true.
There is one more thing.

It's, uh, your dad's 50th,

and I've decided to throw him
a little soiree at the speakeasy,

and I would really like it if
you gave the birthday speech.

You're the writer in the family.

What do you say?

Yeah.

Okay, I'll do it.

Today, the serpents
start a new chapter.

You're no longer outlaws.

You're law keepers,

which is why I've got
Tom Keller here to help.

He is the best damn sheriff
Riverdale's ever had.

Well,
thanks, fp. That's quite an introduction.

Um, a lot of what we'll be doing
over the next couple of months

will be like basic training.

Each junior deputy will be paired with
an officer who will then mentor them.

Jughead, boy,
you're riding with me.

Did you ever think
in a million years

that at 50 you'd be sitting in the
driver's seat of a sheriff's cruiser?

No, I never even imagined
I'd make it to 50.

Figured that was
my expiration date.

What did you think
was gonna happen?

I'd get myself killed or drink
myself to death, like my old man.

In a way I'm, uh...

I'm just happy to be here.

Happy to be alive.

What are you most proud of?

You

and your sister, I'm uh...

I'm proud of you both.

So, we're really doing this?

Moving to the northside,

into the Cooper house?

It's like a Norman Rockwell
painting with ieatherjackets.

You know,
you and jellybean deserve it.

And for the first time ever, I'm in a
place where I can provide for my kids.

I can put a real roof over
your head, food in your mouths.

Damn.

It only took me 50 years
to get here.

We've got a
10-23 at the chock'lit shoppe. Out.

10-4. On my way.

What the hell is a 10-23?

Hey, pop.

What's going on?

Some fizzle rocks junkie spazzed
out and threw hot coffee all over delores,

then ran out of here.

I thought fizzle rocks
were gone,

this whole candy epidemic
was over?

Yeah, but I've heard rumblings,

rumors that someone's looking
to reopen the candy store.

I wonder who.

That's a good question.

Nana Rose,

you haven't seen Toni, have you?

Not since she gave me
an envelope of money.

Come again? Money for what?

I believe she called it

rent.

Fascinating.

I've been thinking
about our conversation.

What's this?

It's what I consider to be a
good, fair starting salary for you.

So, I'm just a hired
hand to you, Ronnie?

You think I'm here busting
my ass to make minimum wage?

That's more than
minimum wage, Reggie.

Enough to buy
a clean conscience?

You know what?

Why don't you take
the rest of the night off,

clear your head,
and recalibrate your attitude.

That's a good call.

- And you believe hiram?
- I do.

He says he gave out
12 quest cards.

Well, he's nothing
if not thorough.

Okay, so that means there could
be as many as ten cards still in play,

and that means we need to
figure out how to track them,

and whoever's
holding them, down.

Yeah, Mr. Lodge gave me a list of
the places his dealers used to go to,

where g&g players congregate.

Suds laundromat, innuendo...

These places are all nearby.

I say we check them out,
starting with the comic book shop.

See if we can tap into
Riverdale's gaming network.

And so continues
our nerdiest mystery yet.

Princess fate, it's your roll.

But you're down five hit points
and the hellhounds are gaining on...

You're not allowed back here.

This is a sacred space.

Sheath your sword, game master.

Just here to ask some questions.

Sorry to interrupt your game,
but, uh,

we're here because of this.

Do you recognize it?

Yes.

And we know who you are.

That quest is in play here.

Yeah, well,
take your shot, then.

Who gave it to you?

The king.

The gargoyle king came here?

To the back room
of a comic book store?

One of his disciples delivered
the quest card for him.

He wore a mask.

Didn't say much.

What, was he delivering
fizzle rocks?

Who has the card now,
one of you?

No one in this room.

Well, whoever does
have the card,

why haven't they made a play
against the red paladin yet?

The red paladin
is an advanced quest.

It takes time to adequately
prepare for it.

But they'll act on it.

And sooner or later, they'll
come for you, red paladin.

How are things with you and
jughead now that his mom's back?

Good.

He told me I could stay in the
house with them in my old room,

which feels just weird to me.

But, I mean, I guess I'd get to
know his mom and sister better.

Why do you ask?

Betty, there's something I
need to tell you about Mrs. Jones.

She swore me to secrecy, but...

I can't have you getting caught
up in this, not even by association.

Caught up in what, vee?

I have insider information that

Gladys Jones is taking over
the drug trade in Riverdale.

What, like fizzle rocks?

I thought all that stuff
was gone now?

It was.

But like Gloria Swanson,
it's getting ready for a comeback,

with Gladys leading the charge
instead of my father.

Vee, you need to
tell me everything.

And then I have to tell jughead.

It's a weird feeling,

knowing there are all these people,
strangers out there who want to kill me.

It's the game.
It makes people crazy.

You know, as a matter of fact, those
hardcore gamers are so obsessive,

any message they receive from the
gargoyle king they take as gospel.

Maybe we can harness that.

Like when I became
the gryphon queen.

Right. Now, we know that the
only way to complete hiram's quest

is to kill the red paladin.

But who says the gargoyle
king can't add to his own quest,

offer a different outcome?

Do you guys remember when
we were in elementary school,

and it was snowing,
and we played that game,

uh, king of the mountain?

- Yeah, kind of.
- Not really, no.

Well, you won every time, Archie,
so we can play to your strengths.

I'll write an addendum
to the quest

that says the red paladin will defend his
mountaintop for 12 hours, dusk till dawn.

Anyone that has this "kill the red
paladin" card can try and take you down,

but if they don't by the time the challenge
ends, your Mark of sacrifice is lifted.

- Let's do it.
- 0kay, well, if we're gonna do that,

no weapons, hand-to-hand combat
only, only one challenger at a time.

Perfect. But we're still
gonna need a space.

A mountaintop that's going to
increase your chances of winning.

I think I know someone who can
help provide that.

Get writing, I'll call you.

We'll watch over him.

I know it's risky, but it's better
to see them coming. Right?

Right.

It's better to see it coming.

I heard from someone,

a source, that

fizzle rocks may be
coming back into Riverdale.

Yeah, my money's on it
being hiram again.

Actually, my source says
your mom is stepping in.

Jug.

- Well, who's your source?
- I can't reveal that.

But I would not tell you this
if I didn't believe them.

They're trustworthy.

Okay.

I'll look into it.

What? Let me help you.

Thank you for telling me, Betty,

but you have to let me do
this on my own.

Plus, we have
Archie's quest to finish.

I'll let you know
if I find anything.

I have a request.

I need somewhere to host and
end my red paladin challenge.

Your what now?

I'm calling in everyone who
has one of your quest cards,

and since you're the one who got
me into this mess in the first place,

ifigured you could help me
find an appropriate spot.

As a matter of fact,

I recently acquired a city block

near Sweetwater docks, where
there are various shuttered businesses

including a hole-in-the-wall
boxing gym.

Right now,
it's just sitting there.

You're welcome to use it.

Thank you, Mr. Lodge.

Arch, any luck?

I found a place for the mountaintop,
jug, an old boxing gym by the docks.

Okay, I'll add it to
the new, improved quest

and have the guys distribute it
the same way hiram did.

- Awesome. I'll see you at dusk?
- See you at dusk.

Sweet pea, fangs, you're going
to the old comic shop.

Old deuteronomy and weasel,
you're going to hit innuendo,

and termite and jinx, you're
going to cover all about the glaze.

And we need to canvass all of hiram's hot
spots if we're going to get the word out fast.

- What about these masks?
- Wear 'em.

Remember, the goal is to try
and convince them

that this quest came directly
from the gargoyle king.

We're on it.

And there's one more thing.

It's kind of personal.

These aren'tjust
gaming hot spots.

They were hubs for hiram's
fizzle rock trade.

I've heard a rumor that a new
player is moving in to restart it.

I want you guys to suss any
information that you can, discreetly.

And if you find anything, I want
you to come to me and only me.

Okay?

- Let's go.
- Yeah.

Reggie, what the hell
is going on?

Your bozo boy-toy here
thought it wise

to try to steal his car back
before we settled our account.

- Not smart.
- Mrs. Jones,

perhaps I can make it up
to you in some way.

Now, how are you
going to do that?

Your husband's 50th
at la bonne nuit.

Let me cover
the expenses for that.

Done, but keep your arm candy
off my damn property.

How could you have
done something so reckless?

You know we're this close to paying
off our debt to her and my father.

- I'm sorry.
- You're sorry?

Reggie, this is how wars start.

Damn it, Veronica,
I gave you everything.

I wanted to get
my damn car back, at least.

Cheryl. What are you doing here?

- I'm working.
- I'm not here for you, babe.

I was in the mood to gamble.

So no ulterior motives, then?

Only to win, of course.

Now, be a doll, and fetch
me a bellini, why don't you?

Maybe we didn't allow enough
time for word to get around?

Maybe they didn't believe that
it was actually coming from the...

I'm here for the red paladin.

Arch.

Well,

I guess the word got around.

Challengers...

Welcome to the iron mountain.

Approach this
hallowed battleground,

submit your
"kill the red paladin" card,

bring the paladin to his knees in
three minutes, and your quest is won.

However,

should you run out of time,

should you fall
to the paladin's hand,

then your quest is over.

Is that understood?

Then let's go!

Who's next?

Next!

You're doing great, arch.

How many of these guys
am I fighting?

Well, what do we have here?

Lying in wait for me?

- Color me shocked.
- Oh, please.

Earlier tonight,
you were casing the place,

and you wanted me to know it.

So, what are you
going to do now?

Cuff me?

Get off of him!

Okay, uh,
there's only 11 cards here.

What, that's all?
Who else wants to try?

- Who is that?
- Captain golightly.

My old guard at I&I.

Norton's lap dog.

My price for admission.

Hey, look at me.

Are you sure you're up for this?

It's okay.

I want
the sacrifice Mark off me.

Enter the kraken!

Begin!

This one's for the warden.

And this one's for me.

- Yes!
- Whoo!

That was for me.

Sacrifice no more.

That was hot...

And nice.

Agreed.

But I think we need to talk
about what's going on between us.

What is that, exactly?

I think you have a problem
with the poisons

because for once I'm in charge
of something and you're not.

False.

I'm upset because you seem to want to spend
all your time with them instead of me.

Cheryl, I love you.

And yet...

I can't spend all my time cooped
up in that house in your bedroom.

- Our bedroom.
- That's exactly it.

It doesn't feel
like our bedroom.

It's entirely yours. Your space.

It sounds, Toni,
like you regret moving in with me.

Well, maybe it was too soon.

Too fast.

In that case, maybe you moving
out is exactly what needs to happen.

Thank you
for loaning me the gym.

Was it a successful night?

- Time will tell.
- Hmm.

But, yes,

the quest you set in motion
is finished.

Very good, Archie.

No, I want you to keep those.

And the gym.

Appreciate you helping me out
this week, Mr. Lodge,

but I don't want
to be in your debt.

It's not a debt, Archie,
it's compensation.

It's a way for me
to make amends,

since I was responsible for launching
the red paladin quest in the first place.

Take the keys.

Gym's yours.

No strings attached.

Thank you, Mr. Lodge.

Hey, can I help?

You can start by telling me
what's gotten into you.

Are you seriously self-destructing
because I won't make you my partner?

Partly.

I've got an issue with
how I'm being treated by you.

Really?

I want to be more
than just your errand boy.

Or pit boss.

Or casual hookup.

I want to matter, Ronnie.

You do matter.

And, lest we forget, I just went
through a wrenching breakup

just a few months ago.

So, yeah,
I'm taking things slow.

Answer me honestly,

would we even be dating
if not for the speakeasy?

Probably not.

But I'm glad we are. Aren't you?

I've given up so much for you.

I feel like you owe me,

and I'm not getting
an ounce in return.

In that case...

I bought your car back
from Gladys.

Now we don't owe
each other anything.

You guys had a hell of a night.

Well, it was mainly Archie.

What about you guys?
Did you find anything?

Yeah, it's bad news, jughead.

Hey, just in time.
I'm making your dad's favorite,

- fried chicken.
- We need to talk.

I've been hearing rumors that you didn't
move to town to get the family back together,

but instead to take the
drug trade from hiram lodge?

You know...

I never was one
for small town gossip.

Is it true?

Yeah, it's true.

- Why?
- Why do you think?

I did it for you.
I did it for your sister.

Hell, I even did it
for your dad.

It's about time the joneses
got a taste of it,

the American dream.

No. You don't get
to put this on us.

This is criminal and selfish.

Since when is taking care
of my family a selfish act?

Do you even know
where your dad and I come from?

Hmm? No one ever
handed us anything.

We had to hustle and scam just to
make sure there was food on the table

and that you and jellybean
had a place to sleep at night.

Am I proud of all the crap
that we had to do? No.

No, and you don't even
know the half of it.

But we did our best,
and we survived,

and now we're moving to elm street,
which is all your father ever wanted.

Dad would not be okay knowing
how you paid for that place.

Which is exactly why you're
not going to say a word to him.

It would break him. Again.

Maybe for the last time.

And I know you don't want
to do that to him.

Happy birthday, Mr. Jones.

- Aw.
- Thank you, Betty.

Not too long ago, you threw
one of these for jughead.

- Do you remember?
- Ooh, how could I forget?

- Happy birthday, dad.
- Thanks.

Hey, you kids don't go too far because
the good stuff is about to happen. Right?

- Yeah.
- Sure.

Fp Jones.

As I live and breathe.

- Happy birthday, brother.
- Thanks, Fred.

- It's a bit much, though, huh?
- Uh, nah.

You don't get too many nights
like this. You gotta soak it up.

Feel like
I stumbled into this party

and people are about to ask,
"who let you in?"

Everybody takes
their own path, fp.

And your path has
brought you here.

We are gonna be neighbors
and I'm happy about it.

Me too. All right.

- Thanks for being here.
- Yeah.

I got your message, Cheryl.
I'm so sorry to hear about Toni.

Oh, Kevin.

Are you familiar with the phrase,
"que sera, sera"?

Sure.

It means "whatever will be,
will be."

Yeah, it's also heavily featured

in the iconic high school
black comedy heathers.

By the way, did you know
there's a musical version of it?

Cheryl, the farm is
co-sponsoring the musical this year,

and it's going to be godspell.

Not anymore.

I need to focus my rage,

therefore this year's musical
is heathers.

You're directing,

I'm playing
hbic Heather Chandler.

Any questions?

I thought not. Okay, bye.

Thank you, everyone,
for coming out to

celebrate one
of Riverdale's finest.

The finest, if you ask me.

My husband, fp Jones.

Once, he was a king,

a great king.

Maybe the best ever.

But I think the greatest role
that he's ever held...

Is that of father.

So, why don't we ask jughead

to come on up here
and say a few words.

What do you say, guys?

Do you have
any idea what you're going to say?

- Jug! Jug! Jug!
- I have no clue.

Jug! Jug! Jug!

Thanks, I"

wrote...

It's no secret that the Jones men
don't really like birthday parties.

We're a rather broody bunch.

You know, I remember when you
made me promise not to stop writing.

Not for anything.

And I haven't.

I've written every day.

But I could punch keys
every night in a booth at pop's

and never come up with a story
nearly as remarkable as yours.

You've gone from the wrong the side
of the tracks to the right side of the law.

From serpent king
to sheriff of Riverdale.

From a man
that most people in this town

had probably written off...

To someone that
righted his wrongs...

And brought
our family back together.

That's who you are to me,

someone that would do
anything for his family.

There's something you need
to know about this family.

We'll always be there for you.

And jellybean and mom.

I'm proud to be your son.

I'm proud to share your name.

And I am proud

to be part of your

amazing story.

Here's to 50, dad.

That was
a beautiful speech, jug.

Thanks.

Most of it was true.

What are you gonna do now?

Save jellybean, protect my dad,
and run my mom out of town.

Do you want to help?

Greg, move your head.
