Wow, this Reggie/Hiram/Mr. Mantle relationship is exactly what I was hoping they would explore and now they're doing it? Woah...

I'm shaking. Holy shit - Riverdale, baby, I didn't know you still had it in you!

Cami is so good when they let her speak sentences and not in baby talk. Hermione! <3

They have Vito eating spaghetti and meatballs

NOT A FIGHT IN THE CHOP SHOP! Barchie had sex in that room!

Fuck Reggie's dad. He sucks in every lifetime.

"You sad, stupid, boy" - me to every man on this for for five seasons

Oh shit, no wonder Hiram got all fucked up when Veronica said she was going to go by Veronica Luna.

"Apparently you beat up some kids at school because they wouldn't call you Hiram lodge?"

Hiram to everyone at school on Monday

VERONICA IS LIKE HIRAM'S DAD IN THAT SHE BELIEVES THERES GOOD IN EVERYONE OH MY GOD NOOOOOOOOOOO

lol why did Hermione call Alice a skank, she didn't even say anything? It was Penelope!

Vito really out here killing this kid's dad and being like, "Hey so like...yeah I know you're upset about the death i caused but um...you coming in on Monday?"

Wow. That sure is a lot of blood, sir.

Hiram: *covered in blood carrying two Pops shakes*
His Mom: Um...whatcha got there?
Hiram: ...two shakes?

IT WAS BABY VERONICA! HIIII

Wait...is Veronica's apartment bugged? What is this?

OH It's their "RHONY" got it...

ARCHIE IS GOING TO SAVE PUPPIES!!!

Oh we finally figured out where Riverdale is located and why they don't call New York "the city"

Oh god, it hit me that Hiram's last words to his father was a fight where he said it was embarrassing being his son. Then his father was killed before he could ever apologize. Just like Betty's last words to Polly was a fight. Oh no. Oh no...

Hiram making sure he pays and tips the shoe shiner because he's rich, but not an asshole. He's a man who never learns, but has a code and has boundaries.

It's why he'll never hurt Veronica.
It's why he didn't murder Reggie's dad.
It's why he let Reggie go.

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.

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
