Going by the outfits in these stills and what the episode is about, 5x14 is going to be where we get Chainsaw Betty aka "The Darkest Thing She's Ever Had To Face"

Alice's outfit matches this scene from the 5B trailer

"The Night Gallery" lines up with the Jughead "Ratking" painting, Betty "Chainaw" painting, and something related to Archie during his time in the military. Cheryl and Minerva (her art dealer girlfriend) will probably hold a gallery to sell these as the Blossom Estate is broke af

My guess is Archie has war flashbacks while stuck in the mines with Reggie and Kevin (his Mothman moment), Jughead finishes his arc in New York before coming back to Riverdale to fix things with Betty (5x16) and if Betty doesn't completely lose her shit, she'll come pretty close!

Had a rough day at work, so I'm chilling with the Archie Marries Betty book. I've had this in my comxiology list for months!

These books are borderline incomprehensible, so everything just feels like a fever dream.

I love everything about this except Betty wearing her shoes on the sofa.

You live in New York City, get those disgusting shoes off, Mrs. Andrews!

Huh...yeah, I guess Cora (that blonde woman Jug slept with in New York) coming back to Riverdale to tell him she's pregnant would be a crazy cliffhanger. It would also throw a wrench in whatever relationship he has and she matches the 🤰🏼 emoji. I think the bhs may have a point!

If Jughead does deal with his writer's block and his article appears in the New Yorker (or wtv the Rivedale version) that Cora woman could see it since she's a writer too. And just when Jughead thinks his life is settled this one night stand comes into Pops and blows his life up.

While the Betty pregnant cliff hanger would be crazy and blow up the Archie/Betty/Veronica triangle in a soapy way, this also tracks since Jughead needs something next season to deal with and it would definitely be a struggle since he's broke and doesn't really know this woman.

Riverdale Season 5’s Thematic Question & The Three Act Structure (a thread)

Since Riverdale S5 started a bit differently due to COVID, including three episodes that were supposed to be in S4 and extra-long hiatus, I wanted to take a moment to talk about story structure, this season’s thematic question, and how it’s playing out so far.

For the first time since S1, Riverdale finds itself with a smaller story ("Riverdale is in trouble!") lasting for a shorter number of episodes (16 vs. 22).

Riverdale loves to do things big, but it's at its best when its seasons are short and focused.
