Ranking the top 5 moments from “Riverdale” Season 4 Episode 10: “Cherry Bomb”

Happy Thursday TV fans! The wait is finally over and Archie and the gang are back just in time for the big game! After watching The CW’s Riverdale season 4 episode 10, I learned that Stonewall Prep “doesn’t play to win, they play to hurt,” but hell hath no fury like a Riverdale woman seeking out revenge. Watch out, guys!

Please note spoilers are ahead if you have not gotten a chance to watch yet.

In last night’s episode, “Chapter Sixty-Seven: Varsity Blues,” it’s time for the big football game, as our two rival schools prepare for war. Meanwhile, Cheryl meets the new cheerleading coach, Jughead reveals some secrets to Quill & Skull, and a B & V scam is up and running once again.

My top 5 moments from Riverdale season 4 episode 10 are:

“You respect what a man chooses for himself.”

Were you wondering about Archie’s Uncle Frank? Me too! Well, at least we get some answers, as we discover that Uncle Frank may be the black sheep of the family. Mrs. Andrews does not get along with him and tells Archie that Fred was blamed for a DUI when Uncle Frank was driving.

Things also start to get shady when Uncle Frank offers Munroe some drugs to help his kneel heal quicker, but Archie seems to have a fast change of heart, agreeing to allow Uncle Frank to stay with him temporarily.

Let’s hope he doesn’t bring our favorite vigilante to the dark side…

“It tastes like money.”

Veronica is determined to beat her father and even comes up with her own special blend of rum…Luna Rum. Sounds catchy and apparently it is quite spicy as well, but Hiram finds out and serves Veronica with a cease and desist letter, reminding her that she is still using his patented recipe.

Reggie has some interesting ideas about how to get revenge that are quite juvenile, but Veronica is playing to win and decides to team up with Cheryl to make the perfect blend using her maple syrup.

Go V!

“Maybe you could go turn on your femme fatale charm.”

Betty is determined to get some dirt on Bret and the rest of the team to prove that they are playing dirty, but it looks like we are ready for another classic B & V scam. Veronica, or “Monica,” wears her blonde wig to perfection and tries to get close to Bret.

She can “smell his privilege from across the room” and it looks like she is actually getting somewhere with Betty listening in, but Jughead outs her in front of the party as poor Betty now finds out that Jughead is part of the Quill & Skull secret society.

I always love an excuse for a good B & V team up, but let’s hope that they can take Bret down once and for all!

“I run the show around here.”

Yes you do, Cheryl! Cheryl and the Vixens are preparing for Spirit Week and the big game, but Mr. Honey reminds her that a new coach will be taking over, Miss Appleyard. Miss Appleyard doesn’t seem to be threatened, so has Cheryl finally met her match?

Cheryl refuses to take orders from her and reminds her that her “body is perfection, you crone!” After Mr. Honey threatens to take away prom for the squad, they turn their backs on Cheryl and agree to follow Miss Appleyard because you know, we can’t have any singing and dancing in cheerleading…

Cheryl is not through; however, and ends up locking Miss Appleyard in her office so that she can put on a showstopping number to “Cherry Bomb.”

Our HBIC is back, but I’m interested to find out more about Miss Appleyard and her motivation in all of this…

Theories on her arrival?

“We may have lost the game, but haven’t lost the war.”

After losing the game to Stonewall Prep, Bret seems quite confident. He tells Betty he’s sorry about her article getting canned with a lot of smug attitude. Betty doesn’t seem to be intimidated at all; however, especially since she just started digging. After all, who knows what else she will find?

Betty approaches Mr. Honey and tells him that Stonewall Prep also wins a Quiz Team tournament each year and is beyond motivated to kick their ass. Our new captain is out for blood and it looks like she will have an unstoppable team with Veronica, Cheryl, and Toni by her side, but we know that Betty is going to dominate the competition.

We then flash forward to one month later and see Betty packing up some of Jughead’s things. Bret says that they will be the only ones going to Yale now, which begs the question, did Betty feel threatened when Jughead got into Yale? We know that Betty was initially rejected, so how did she turn the tables here?

The plot thickens, but I can’t wait to find out more and next week’s Quiz Show looks like it is going to be vicious and fantastic. I can’t wait! Stay tuned!

Ranking the top 5 moments from “Riverdale” Season 4 Episode 9: “Tangerine Tangerine Tangerine”

Happy Thursday TV fans! After watching the CW’s Riverdale season 4 episode 9, I learned that sometimes it’s necessary to shatter the darkest parts of ourselves, but are they ever truly gone or have we just unleashed something even more dangerous in the process? Please note spoilers are ahead if you have not gotten a chance to watch yet.

In last night’s episode, “Chapter Sixty-Six: Tangerine,” Betty’s life is put in danger after discovering that the Farm is using a trigger word to try and destroy her. Meanwhile, Cheryl confronts her intruder, Jughead finds his grandfather, and Archie and FP team up to clean up the streets.

My top 5 moments from the Riverdale season 4 episode 9 Mid-Season finale are:

“It’s on.”

Veronica vs. Hiram…place your bets now! Hiram shows off his maturity in this episode by trying to mess with everything his daughter cares about. He revokes her liquor license and even starts calling some college recruiters behind her back, but Veronica is not about to let him stand in her way.

She lets her grandmother know what is going on, but it doesn’t look like Hiram has learned his lesson yet. All hope is not lost; however, as the admissions rep from Columbia seems very interested in Veronica’s story.

“Let’s see how you do against someone your own size.”

FP has a talk with Archie and promises to help him send a message to stop these drug dealers from hurting kids, but he wants Archie to put down the vigilante mask for good. Archie and FP actually make quite the team, as FP even takes out his Serpent jacket for the occasion.

After FP is shot, Archie continues to react on instinct and almost beats Dodger to death. Luckily, FP will be OK, but it looks like Archie is in desperate need of a male role model.

And in walks Fred’s brother, Frank…

“You seize the opportunities you are given.”

Jughead wins the writing contest, so it looks like he will be the next ghost writer for the Baxter Brothers series. Congrats Jughead!

Mr. DuPont reminds Jughead that he needs to play by the rules, but Jughead is still not letting go of the past, as he decides to track down his grandfather to get some answers. After discovering that his grandfather sold the book over to DuPont, he starts to see the full picture, but it doesn’t look like the drama is over for Jughead just yet.

Jughead is now officially initiated into the Quill and Skull society, but it looks like he is going to be found dead four weeks later…

And so the plot thickens!

“I’m the Red Queen.”

I was so excited that Cheryl decided to tie in my favorite book of all time, Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland and of course she is our Red Queen. After pretending to poison herself, Penelope Blossom reveals herself, confirming one of my theories.

Penelope explains that she is jealous that Cheryl has been able to find happiness with dead Jason, but you would think she would try and salvage her own relationship with her daughter.

Cheryl is not about to let her mother walk away from this and decides to keep her captive in the bunker. Cheryl finally realizes that it is time to say goodbye to Jason and gives him a Viking funeral down at Sweet River with all of her friends.

I thought this was an important and vulnerable moment for Cheryl and I’m glad that Toni and her friends could be there for her. Even though Cheryl has a softer side, one should never cross the Red Queen, however.

“What did you do Betty?”

A good question for sure and of course we have to wait until January 22^nd for new episodes to find out more! During this episode, both Polly and Alice are hypnotized by a trigger word, tangerine. If the word is said three times, they try to eliminate “Evil Betty” or “Dark Betty” and we discover that Evelyn Evernever is the one making the calls.

Betty decides to have a little chat with Evelyn at Shankshaw Prison, but it looks like her greatest threat might be herself. Charles works with Betty and uses the word trigger, as Betty tries to go back in her memories to stop her childhood self from ever hurting her cat, Caramel.

It seems like everything works just fine, but when Betty turns to the mirror and says the trigger words again, she shatters it. Betty tells her mother that the darkness is gone, but now we discover that she may have been the one to kill Jughead.

Personally, I can’t believe that Betty would ever intentionally harm Jughead, but this is definitely a twist I did not see coming. Betty has been trying to stifle her dark side for a while now, but has she just unleashed something even more deadly in the process? Stay tuned!

I hope you enjoyed the list and feel free to post your own thoughts and theories on Riverdale in the comments section below. Thank you so much for reading and happy viewing!

Ranking the top 5 moments from “Riverdale” Season 4 Episode 8: “I’m One Elizabeth Away From Exploding”

Happy Thursday TV fans! After watching The CW’s Riverdale season 4 episode 8, I learned that sometimes it’s easier to open up to a stranger about our problems, but when those problems include haunted ghosts, daddy issues, and a hero complex, Mrs. Burble certainly has a lot of work to do. Please note spoilers are ahead if you have not gotten a chance to watch yet.

In last night’s episode, “Chapter Sixty-Five: In Therapy,” The Watcher returns and continues to send creepy VHS tapes to the residents of Riverdale. Meanwhile, our main characters take time to meet with the new counselor, Mrs. Burble, learning quite a bit about themselves in the process.

My top 5 moments from Riverdale season 4 episode 8 are:

“Someone needs to step up.”

When Archie meets with Mrs. Burble, he explains that he doesn’t have any interest in going to college, focusing all of his attention on cleaning up the town of Riverdale. Mrs. Burble tries to get Archie to open up about his father and it’s clear that Archie is embracing this hero complex a little too much, as Mrs. Burble warns him about the dangers of becoming a vigilante.

Mrs. Burble suggests that Archie come up with an anonymous hotline so that he can help others without getting directly involved, but as soon as a call comes through, Archie grabs his mask once again, so it doesn’t look like he is ready to step down from his vigilante role anytime soon.

We know that Archie is desperate to fix things and has the tendency to carry the burden for everyone else, but he needs to watch out before he gets himself, or someone he loves, hurt.

“I love you most too.”

The Cooper ladies are in desperate need of some therapy, although Alice is now embracing her maiden name. Alice basically crashes Betty’s therapy session, as these two ladies try to air out their issues. Alice says that Betty is a little girl, but once they keep talking, she blurts out that she loves Betty most of all and she doesn’t want to lose her.

At the end of the episode, Alice leaves a check for Betty to make up for taking her college fund and Betty tells her that she loves her most too, which was a sweet moment.

Betty and Alice have been through their fair share of trauma, but I hope this is enough to repair some of the damage between them.

Although next week’s episode looks really frightening with Alice holding a knife, so we’ll have to see how this plays out for Betty and Alice.

“Pause…you’re taking my Vixens away?”

Mr. Honey continues to be Cheryl’s nemesis, explaining that she will need to be cleared through a therapy session before he will reconsider giving her back her duties on the cheerleading squad. Cheryl starts out with a guard around her, but actually opens up to Mrs. Burble quite a bit, as we start to realize how much trauma poor Cheryl has actually gone through.

Mrs. Burble tells Cheryl that she is “remarkably resilient” and I have to agree, but Cheryl finally starts to open up about talking to dead Jason and her feelings on Julian, suddenly realizing how crazy this seems.

Mrs. Burble has Cheryl take a test that determines that she does not have shared DNA, which means she actually didn’t consume Julian in the womb.

Cheryl may not be haunted anymore, but she shares Mrs. Burble’s theory with Toni, explaining that perhaps someone is messing with her.

Toni is hilariously catching up on some reading with The Amityville Horror, which certainly seems fitting, but now we have to wonder who is messing with Cheryl?

I can’t imagine that Nana Rose or Toni would do this and Cheryl already chased her relatives out the door, so is it possible that Mr. Honey is up to no good here? Polly? Penelope Blossom?

We’ll have to see how this plays out, but they better watch out. Cheryl Blossom is not someone you want to mess with!

“You should try seeing him through your father’s eyes.”

Even though Jughead is at Stonewall Prep, he gets a session with Mrs. Burble when he is waiting for a transcript. Jughead opens up about the mystery and scandal behind the Baxter Brothers, but Mrs. Burble suggests that perhaps he should focus more on his homework rather than this conspiracy theory.

Jughead is very guarded as well, but starts to think twice when Mrs. Burble explains that he should try to see things through FP’s eyes, reminding him how much FP has sacrificed for Jughead to try and do right by him.

This leads to a very nice moment between Jughead and his father, but will Jughead completely abandon his investigation?

Probably not, but at least he is getting back on track with his writing now.

“Veronica Luna is no one’s Cordelia!”

A shining moment for Veronica (formerly known as Lodge) Luna, who is beyond excited when she finds out that she received early admission into Harvard, which is her dream school. However, this dream quickly becomes a nightmare when she realizes that her father got involved, now not knowing if she received admission based on her own merit or not.

Veronica has always seen her family as rather Shakespearean, but Mrs. Burble explains that perhaps it really is more of a Greek Tragedy. She talks about Veronica’s relationship with her father being somewhat obsessive, as perhaps Hiram sees a lot of himself in Veronica and Veronica’s drive for business and success stems from her father.

Mrs. Burble explains that the only way Veronica can be free is to “kill her father,” although not with actual murder. Veronica turns down Harvard and stands up to her father, saying that she is going to win in terms of business, so I guess that means she will be making rum now?

Either way, this was a very important moment for Veronica. We have seen her stand up to her father again and again, but it looks like she is finally going to take a stand away from him to find her own purpose and identity. Go V!

Overall, this episode felt slightly transitional, although I think these moments gave us a chance to reflect on each character and their development over the seasons. However, we did get some plot advancing moments, as we still don’t know who The Watcher is and we later discover that in the future, Donna and Bret are the ones who claim that they saw Archie, Betty, and Veronica killing Jughead, so it looks like we still have more to uncover with this mystery.

Stay tuned!

Ranking the top 5 moments from “Riverdale” Season 4 Episode 6: “No more Secrets, No more Lies”

Happy Thursday TV fans! After watching The CW’s Riverdale season 4 episode 6, I learned that it is possible to save a town one kid at a time, but what happens when you decide to make a deal with the devil himself? Will it be worth it in the end? Please note spoilers are ahead if you have not gotten a chance to watch yet.

In last night’s episode, “Chapter Sixty-Three: Hereditary,” Cheryl and Toni continue to be tormented by a “demon doll.” Meanwhile, the Lodge family is reunited, Jughead uncovers a secret, and Betty visits an old enemy to get some answers about Charles. My top 5 moments from Riverdale season 4 episode 6 are:

“Nothing’s that simple with you.”

Very true, Archie, so perhaps you should heed your own advice? During the episode, Dodger continues to threaten Archie and the kids, which is making things more than difficult for him. Hiram Lodge pays Archie a visit and actually has some genuine words about his father, reminding him that he would be proud of him.

I thought this was a nice gesture from Hiram, but you can never truly trust the devil. After shots are fired at Archie’s home, endangering his mother, Archie visits Hiram and asks him for his help. Hiram claims that he can’t help him, but Archie later discovers Dodger rolled up in a bloody carpet outside of the community center.

Dodger’s fate certainly doesn’t look too good here, but I’m more concerned about Archie making a deal with the devil. I understand that he was trying to protect his mom, but being in Hiram’s debt is never a good thing…oh Archiekins!

“I’m not giving an inch!”

Hiram is also stirring up trouble with his own family, as he claims that he wants to start a Rum business with Hermosa’s help. Veronica is not exactly pleased and tells him to leave. She offers her mother a job as a hostess, but Hermione has a change of heart when her husband seduces her.

Hermione is no stranger to past mistakes, but she clearly hasn’t learned her lesson either. Temptation is a tricky thing, but it looks like Veronica is the only Lodge standing her ground here.

Go V!

“Damn you demon doll!”

Cheryl and Toni continue to be tormented by the creepy Julian doll, which seems to be wreaking havoc in Cheryl’s home. This is not the only thing she has to worry about; however, as her creepy Aunt Cricket and Uncle Bedford show up, asking Cheryl to consider selling the business and house.

Toni reminds Cheryl that this might be their chance to get a fresh start and she’s right, but Cheryl doesn’t want to hear anything else once her aunt and uncle want to go down to the chapel, anxious to protect Jason.

Later on, Uncle Bedford discovers Jason’s body and threatens to have her committed so that they can take over the business, but Cheryl is not about to go out quietly. After he attacks Cheryl, Toni steps in once again to save her beloved and knocks Uncle Bedford out.

Did Toni just kill Uncle Bedford? I’m not sure, but it looks like Choni may be in for some more trouble. Perhaps Nana Rose can help out here…

“The text doesn’t lie.”

After experiencing some writer’s block, Jughead uncovers that his grandfather actually wrote the first Baxter mystery book and Mr. DuPont took credit for it. Mr. DuPont is not pleased with these accusations and threatens Jughead quite a bit.

Jughead doesn’t stay quiet; however, and asks Mr. Chipping for help, who seems more than willing to set the record straight.

During a seminar, Mr. Chipping tells Jughead that he’s sorry he wasn’t able to help him and jumps out the window. As if this wasn’t strange enough, Jughead’s classmates just sit there staring like nothing is wrong.

What the hell is going on at Stonewall Prep?

Is Mr. Chipping dead?

Is Mr. DuPont Jughead’s potential killer?

I’m not sure, but he is certainly not going to make things easy for Jughead, especially now that he will be taking over the class. It looks like Jughead may need some backup. Don’t forget to kiss your wonderful girlfriend, Betty! You need her!

“Why would I lie at this point?”

Betty continues to try and get some answers about Charles and even goes to visit an old enemy…Chic. Chic is in jail and is actually pretty forthcoming with Betty, telling her all about Charles’s darkness and how he apparently stabbed someone to death with scissors while on Jingle Jangle.

Betty confronts Charles and has him take a polygraph test, learning that he has been hiding that he is an addict. After Chic threatens to incriminate Alice by revealing where the body of the Shady Man is, Charles helps FP and says that everything is OK now.

Charles has earned Betty’s trust, but we then see him visiting Chic at the end of the episode. Charles and Chic seem to be romantically involved and it looks like Chic was working under Charles’s instruction here, but let’s hope that Betty can uncover the truth before it’s too late.

Now that we know that Charles absolutely has something to hide, what does he want from his new family?

Even though suspects are emerging in every episode in Jughead’s future potential murder, we can’t ignore the darkness in Charles. Stay tuned!

Ranking the top 5 moments from “Riverdale” Season 4 Episode 5: The Perfect Murder

Happy Thursday TV fans! After watching the CW’s Riverdale season 4 episode 5, I learned that “every town gets the hero it deserves,” but what happens when that town is surrounded by darkness? Do the villains reign without consequences or will one hero be enough to bring back the light? Please note spoilers are ahead if you have not gotten a chance to watch yet.

In last night’s episode, “Chapter Sixty-Two: Witness for the Prosecution,” Betty revisits her past after discovering that she has the Serial Killer gene. Meanwhile, Veronica attempts to help her mother before her trial and Jughead learns more about his grandfather. My top 5 moments from Riverdale season 4 episode 5 are:

“A declaration of war.”

Archie continues to try out being the new masked vigilante in town, but it seems that he has a major Dodger problem. Dodger is blackmailing some of the neighbors and Archie is getting complaints about his community center as a result.

FP gives Archie some advice and reminds him that he went through something similar with the Serpents. Archie invites a lot of the town down to the community center so that they can see what he is doing for the community for themselves and even announces a Big Brother, Big Sister effort.

It seems like Archie is doing the right thing here, but Dodger is not willing to let things go and we know how stubborn Archie can be.

Is it the right move for Archie to declare war on the local thugs though? Perhaps he needs some backup…Mad Dog as a sidekick?

“Bring honor to our name.”

Jughead is beyond excited when he finds out that his teacher is actually one of the ghost writers for his favorite mystery book series, Baxter Brother Mysteries. After going through the books with Betty, we know that the books are loosely based on The Hardy Boys, as Betty even makes mention of crossover books with a Nancy Drew imitation.

There is a contest to see who will be the next ghost writer for the series and of course Jughead is determined to win. Only his fellow classmates are not making things easy for him, constantly putting him down and making him feel out of place.

Jughead discovers that his grandfather also attended Stonewall Prep and was a writer too, which gives him some more motivation. FP is not exactly thrilled about this since he doesn’t have the fondest memories of his own father, but he tells Jughead to bring honor to their name, recognizing the talent and potential within his son.

We know that the theme for the story challenge will be “A Perfect Murder,” which got me wondering about Jughead’s own supposed murder in the future. Did someone use a story idea to carry out a murder on Jughead? We’ll have to wait and see!

“Our father needed help.”

Our father? Yes, you heard right, as Hermosa Lodge makes a splash in Riverdale. Hermosa is supposedly a private investigator and she has bugged Veronica’s place of work, making a case to get all charges dropped against her father. Hermosa is absolutely a Lodge and has the style to match Veronica’s, but will Veronica be able to face off against both her and her father?

The plan works and Hiram is now running for mayor, which should shake things up even more in town.

It looks like Hermione will be pardoned by the governor, so the Lodge family should be reunited shortly, but I’m intrigued to find out more about Veronica’s sister. After all, this is the first time Veronica is hearing about her, but she looks like she could be the new dangerous player in town.

“Your intuition is like a sixth sense.”

Betty recruits Kevin to join her in junior FBI class and she shows off how well she knows serial killers. Kevin hilariously points out that she’s like “A Beautiful Mind, but for serial killers.” Betty gets thrown off when she learns about the Serial Killer gene; however, discovering that she does in fact have the gene.

She begins to flash back to some traumatic memories and even remembers killing her cat, Caramel, to put her out of her misery. This was all under her father’s instruction and Charles reveals that he apparently also has this gene. He tells Betty that she can use this to keep the darkness in check, but it looks like our girl Betty is never really off the case.

Toward the end of the episode, Betty reveals her own suspicions about Charles, wondering if he is the new serial killer in town and it looks like she isn’t going to back down until she gets some answers. Go Betty!

“The perfect murder…”

As if this wasn’t enough of a cliffhanger, we also flash forward to the future and witness Betty, Archie, and Veronica being arrested by FP for the murder of his son, which leaves me with even more questions. We know that our favorite characters were searching for Jughead in the woods, but are they really capable of killing their best friend?

Is someone framing them?

Is Jughead faking his own death to coincide with his story for the Baxter Murder series? Stay tuned!

Ranking the top 5 moments from “Riverdale” Season 4 Episode 3: Saved by the Bobby Pin!

Happy Wednesday TV fans! After watching the CW’s Riverdale season 4 episode 3, I realized that change is not necessarily a bad thing. But what happens when new threats emerge because of this change? Is it truly possible to earn a clean slate with so many buried secrets? Please note spoilers are ahead if you have not gotten a chance to watch yet.

In last night’s episode, “Chapter Sixty: Dog Day Afternoon,” Jughead adjusts to life at Stonewall Prep, but a new rival doesn’t make it easy for him. Meanwhile, Edgar calls Betty, but she’s ready for the final showdown. My top 5 moments from Riverdale season 4 episode 3 are:

“I’ll take those odds.”

In this episode, Archie decides that he wants to turn the gym into a community center where kids can go, especially after Munroe’s (Mad Dog) little brother gets caught up with a gang down at the arcade. I feel like they could have picked a more threatening spot, but I’ll go with it for now. Veronica is willing to lend Archie the money he needs, but Archie wants to do things his way.

We get an enthusiastic car wash from the boys, but it doesn’t earn enough money. After Archie tries out being a vigilante, he ends up taking the money from the drug dealers down at the arcade, but it’s not like they can use that either.

Archie’s mother wants him to get out of Riverdale, but Veronica reminds her that she is willing to invest in her son, explaining that he can do so much good in town and I think she’s right. The community center is open and it looks like Mrs. Andrews will be sticking around for a while after all.

“You will do as you’re told. Nothing more. Nothing less.”

Even though we get a brief intimate moment between Choni, Cheryl continues to have her chats with dead Jason, which just gets creepier and creepier. After Nana Rose starts to have some trouble with reality as well, Toni decides to hire a night nurse, Darius. Cheryl channels her best impression of Beauty and the Beast by telling him that he is forbidden from entering certain areas of the estate, desperate to keep Jason a secret.

Cheryl thinks that someone moved Jason and decides to fire Darius after she discovers that he was in the basement, claiming he heard rats. It looks like Darius was on to something, as Cheryl finds one of the rats inside Jason’s stomach, which instantly made my skin crawl.

The cat, or the rat, is out of the bag, as Toni finally stumbles upon Jason. Cheryl actually handles this surprisingly well, asking if Toni has ever met Jason before.

Will Toni be able to bring Cheryl back to reality? Let’s hope so!

“Blood doesn’t wash out…”

Hiram somehow finds out that Veronica is thinking of changing her name and decides to pay her a visit. He may be in jail, but he owns that jail, which apparently means he can come and go whenever he pleases? I’ll leave that one alone, but Hiram decides to tell Veronica the story about how he created the Hiram Lodge name, explaining that his name used to be Luna.

Hiram tells Veronica that changing her name will not wash out her past sins, but Veronica decides to go through with it anyway. Only she won’t be changing her name to Veronica Gomez, she will now be known as Veronica Luna, which clearly infuriates her father.

Will Veronica Luna be able to start fresh or will her Lodge past continue to get in her way?

“You need to buy us time!”

After Charles sends in an undercover agent to deliver pizza at the Farm, things go horribly wrong and Edgar decides to get on the phone. Only he seems to be more interested in calling Betty directly with his list of demands.

Under Charles’s instruction, Betty asks Edgar to release some hostages and poor Polly shows up with a bomb. Edgar has removed the pin on the dead man’s switch and the timer is counting down pretty quickly, but Betty’s bobby pin comes to the rescue, as she saves the day. Go Betty!

Betty decides to get Edgar his list of demands since she knows people and shows up at his front door, ready to end this once and for all, but she is clearly outnumbered and is knocked unconscious before anything too major can happen.

“Edgar ascended…”

When Betty wakes up, she is held hostage with Alice in a motel room. So good to see you Alice! We get an impressive mother-daughter tag team, as these Cooper ladies show us what they are made of. Betty works on trying to get the innocent Farmies on the bus, while her mother goes after Edgar.

Apparently Edgar wants to get on his recently built rocket, but Alice has other plans for him. After a gunshot is heard, Betty panics, but Alice is able to eliminate Edgar once and for all. At least I think so. You never know on Riverdale! It looks like this Farm cult story has wrapped itself up neatly, but I’m slightly confused on Edgar’s behavior in this episode.

Part of what made Edgar so intriguing was that he kept his cool and used manipulation to get what he wanted, but he almost seemed like a loose cannon in this episode. I’m not sure if there are some holes in that plot or if the writers were just done with his story, but I was slightly disappointed with this outcome.

Either way, I’m glad to see that both Betty and Alice are all right. So I guess it’s on to the next mystery, as Betty and Jughead get some kind of tape delivered to them at their doorstep. Is this a warning or a threat? I’m not sure, but we’ll have to see how this all links to Jughead’s future disappearance. Stay tuned!

I hope you enjoyed the list and feel free to post your own thoughts and theories on Riverdale in the comments section below. Thank you so much for reading and happy viewing!

My Ship of the week ending 10/19/19 on TV goes to…

Betty Cooper and Jughead Jones on The CW’s Riverdale season 4. There’s just something about Bughead that makes your heart skip a beat.

While both Bughead and Varchie had some passionate and fiery moments in season 4 episode 2, Bughead takes the crown for me because they have a bond that transcends all of that, understanding what it truly means to give up everything to do what is best for your partner. Please note some spoilers are ahead if you are not up-to-date on the series.

In a lot of ways, Betty and Jughead are ahead of their time. There is a maturity and friendship to their relationship and they really make you think past the temporary moments of passion. Sure, we love seeing these swoon-worthy parts, but I really enjoy witnessing Betty and Jughead’s selfless moments together even more.

They won’t have an easy year ahead of them, but Betty understands Jughead’s talent and potential and she reminds him that they can get through anything together, which was really inspiring and heartwarming to hear.

Betty and Jughead aren’t perfect by any means. In fact, I think that both of them have kept their fair share of secrets, but season 4 is really allowing them to flourish. In a lot of ways, they have moved past their prior mistakes and now they are truly grateful for one another, understanding what really matters in the end…being together.

There doesn’t need to be some epic moment between them because of all of their small moments together make them stand out that much more. They resemble a real and stable relationship and while I am worried about their future fate now that they will be separated, I have faith in these two no matter what.

Betty and Jughead are both strong characters individually and when they are together, they compliment each other so well and I love seeing them team up for mysteries.

My favorite moment of the episode was during English class when Betty pulled Jughead out in the hallway to tell him to go to Stonewall, reminding him that they are always together. Betty wants what is best for Jughead and I know that he would do the same for her.

What’s next for Bughead? We’ll have to wait and see, but I am anxious to find out more about Jughead’s disappearance in the future. Betty is my go to girl to solve the case, so I know that she will not stop until she finds him, but I am starting to wonder more about what led them to this separate path.

Long distance relationships are never easy, but I know that Betty and Jughead will do everything in their power to stay together. The King and Queen of the Serpents deserve every bit of happiness, but I have a feeling that someone might try and get in their way. These two are stronger together, but I am not underestimating either of them and I can’t wait to see what happens next!

I’m always rooting for these two and I would love to see some more screen time for both of them, especially since we know that they will really need to work at putting in some quality time together.

What are YOUR thoughts on Bughead? A dynamic duo or on the outs?

Stay tuned for a recognized Ship on TV each week!

Ranking the top 5 moments from “Riverdale” season 3 episode 21: “Harvest Happy Hour”

Happy Thursday TV fans! After watching the CW’s Riverdale season 3 episode 21, I realized that illusions can be extremely powerful. If we believe in something strongly enough, it has power over us. But what happens when we break that hold? Does our world come crashing down or do we unleash even greater threats in the process? Please note spoilers are ahead if you have not gotten a chance to watch yet. In last night’s episode, “Chapter Fifty-Six: The Dark Secret of Harvest House,” Betty discovers even more secrets about the Farm, as Edgar tries to get her to tap into her darkest fears. Meanwhile, Archie challenges Hiram Lodge to a boxing match and Ethel reveals the identity of the Gargoyle King to Jughead. My top 5 moments from Riverdale season 3 episode 21 are:

“You are the illusion.”

In last week’s episode, Betty agreed to stay at the Farm, fearing the wrath of the Black Hood, but was this really the best decision? In this episode, Betty has some one-on-one sessions with Edgar Evernever, as he uses some kind of hypnosis on her. Betty begins to see another version of herself, which represents the darkness within her, as she is told that she has “the serial killer gene,” which apparently means that she has a predisposition to violence. Betty continues with these sessions, but what she uncovers is even more shocking.

“I won.”

So, I initially thought it was a little ridiculous for Archie to challenge Hiram Lodge to an underground boxing match, but things started to make a lot more sense when I understood Veronica’s end game here. After talking with Archie’s mom and her FBI friend, Veronica and Archie realize that they need to catch Hiram in the act. What better way, than to have an illegal underground fight club going on with lots of underage drinking and gambling? The fight is entertaining enough, but Hiram getting taken away was the real showstopper.

Veronica confronts her father and tells him that she has won, revealing that she knows what he did, but we know that Hiram always finds a loophole. Later on in the episode, Archie goes to Veronica to explore their potential romance, but Reggie is already there. It looks like Reggie beat Archie to the punch this time, but where does Veronica’s heart truly lie? We’ll have to wait and see.

“Get your hands off my girlfriend.”

After some Nancy Drew investigating, Betty realizes that the Farm is harvesting organs. Edgar tells the members of the Farm that they are undergoing some kind of procedure that will translate their mental pain into physical pain, while stealing some of their major organs. Betty tries to warn her friends, who seem skeptical at first. Cheryl initially tries to tell Betty that she has just booked her ticket to Shutter Island, but she starts to connect the dots as well when Betty shows her the proof. Cheryl panics, explaining that Toni was just taken away for a procedure, while Choni fans everywhere held their breath.

Cheryl gets Toni out of there and pushes her out the window so that she can get a chance at freedom. Cheryl stays behind, which was beyond heartbreaking, but I am relieved that Cheryl and Toni are finally seeing the truth behind the Farm. We know that Toni has broken Cheryl out of some tough jams already, so hopefully she will recruit the Serpents and the Pretty Poisons to help Cheryl and the others escape.

“They’re gonna come for me…”

Cheryl is not the only one in danger, as Betty is now strapped to the table. Edgar tells her that they are preparing her for her “procedure,” but Betty reminds him that her friends are going to come for her. Let’s just hope that Jughead isn’t too busy with his own discovery to rescue Betty. It looks like she can use some serious back-up right about now. Perhaps Alice will finally snap out of this trance once she sees that her daughter is in danger? Let’s hope so!

“I can tell you who the King is…”

While all the commotion is happening at the Farm, Jughead has an interesting conversation with Ethel, who is now back in action. Ready for the reveal? Ethel claims that the Gargoyle King is Jason Blossom, but “that’s impossible,” as Jughead points out…you know, since Jason Blossom is dead and all. Jughead doesn’t leave anything up to chance; however, and digs up Jason’s grave, discovering that there is no body in there…so what does this mean? Is it possible that Jason Blossom is truly alive or is someone using his identity as a cover-up? I’m not sure, but I definitely did not see this twist coming and I’m beyond excited for the season finale next week. Stay tuned!

I hope you enjoyed the list and feel free to post your own thoughts and theories on Riverdale in the comments section below. Thanks so much for reading and happy viewing!

Ranking the top 5 moments from “Riverdale” season 3 episode 20: “A Prom Night Truce?”

Happy Thursday TV fans! After watching the CW’s Riverdale season 3 episode 20, I realized that we now have two serial killers loose in the small town of Riverdale. Is this town big enough for the both of them? Are they working together? The questions continue to pile up, but one thing is for certain, Betty Cooper better watch out! Please note spoilers are ahead if you have not gotten a chance to watch yet. In last night’s episode, “Chapter Fifty-Five: Prom Night,” Betty and Jughead continue to work together after discovering the Gargoyle King’s gospel. Meanwhile, Archie takes on a little bit too much and Cheryl’s campaign for prom queen is frowned upon by the Farm. My top 5 moments from Riverdale season 3 episode 20 are:

“What if he planned this?”

In the beginning of the episode, Betty reacts to the news of her father’s death, but she is not completely positive that he is gone. Betty begins to worry that he planned this all along and used her. But what if the Black Hood truly did escape? What would be his next move? Betty is assured that her father is dead after part of his hand is identified from the bus crash and she insists that she has to keep moving, but Betty’s fears are about to become a reality.

“Vote Choni!”

I mean, Choni would absolutely have my vote for Prom Queens, but Cheryl’s campaign doesn’t go exactly according to plan when Evelyn tries to get her to stop, explaining that it is not approved by the Farm. Cheryl doesn’t listen to Evelyn, but Edgar steps in and tells her that she will not be able to see Jason anymore if she continues to do this. Cheryl stands down, as seeing Jason is her number one priority, but why does the Farm really care so much about whether or not Cheryl is crowned queen?

We also still don’t know how Cheryl is seeing Jason and I’m hoping we get some answers soon. I also started to think about the Farm’s real problem with Cheryl being crowned queen and wondered if it had something to do with the Gargoyle King’s gospel. We know that becoming the “Gryphon Queen” is part of the Gargoyle King’s world, so is there a connection here? Either way, I was happy to see Choni dance together at the prom and they are the true prom queens in my book!

“What was off is now back on.”

After Josie’s departure and several hints along the way, it looks like Varchie may be making a comeback and it’s about time! Archie asks Veronica to the prom as friends, but their slow dance together reminded us that these two definitely still have some sparks flying. After Archie tries to take on two boxing matches in the same day, Veronica tries to intervene and help him, but ultimately she asks for Archie’s help when she discovers that she doesn’t really own Pop’s Diner and that her father has been playing her this whole time. Is Varchie ready to finally take down Hiram Lodge? We’ll have to stay tuned to find out, but I loved seeing these two re-connect. Let’s just hope that Hiram doesn’t pull them apart again.

“How about you admit that you’re the Gargoyle King?”

Jughead discovers the gospel of the Gargoyle King on the bus while helping his father investigate, but he keeps this to himself. Jughead learns from Jellybean that the gospel supposedly holds all of the Gargoyle King’s secrets, so this could be extremely useful. However, it seems a little bit too convenient that it ends up in Jughead’s hands. Either way, Jughead and Betty continue to investigate their suspicions and find out that someone else received the same mysterious tattoos as Kurtz, which were the symbols carved into the backs of the victims.

The man is described with sandy hair and magnetic blue eyes so Betty immediately assumes that the Gargoyle King is Edgar. Betty walks into the Farm and demands answers, but is shocked when Edgar willingly takes off his shirt and reveals that he does not have the tattoos. He only has an infinity symbol on his wrist, which Alice is now sporting as well. So if not Edgar, then who?

“I did what you asked. What do you want?”

It’s prom night and Betty and Jughead enlist the help of some of their friends to lure the Gargoyle King there. They create a renaissance or medieval times theme and Betty is running unopposed for the title of Prom Queen…or Gryphon Queen, which should lead Betty right to the Gargoyle King, according to the gospel. During prom, Betty is handed a note from a masked student and she is told to come alone to the place where the game all started. Betty heads down to the ladies bathroom and walks into a room with two chalices.

“Flip for your fate” is written everywhere, but Betty refuses to do so. Betty comes face to face with the Gargoyle King and asks him what he wants. Betty points her gun at the Gargoyle King, proving that she means business, but she is interrupted when the Black Hood shows up as well. Betty is shocked to see the Black Hood and tries to reason with him, but it looks like Dad is not in a talking mood. Betty runs for her life and kicks some serious ass with a hockey stick.

Luckily, Jughead finds her before it is too late, but Betty is now clearly in danger. Betty heads off to the Farm to warn her mother, fearing that Hal may be coming for her next. Edgar says that he can protect her and offers for her to stay and she accepts, but is Betty in more danger at the Farm? This episode was jam-packed with suspense and action and I have so many questions and theories now. Is the Black Hood truly Hal or is it possible that Edgar could have been posing as him? This whole time, the Farm has been trying to get Betty to join willingly and now she has just agreed to stay. Was this all part of the plan? I’m not sure, but Betty better watch her back. Stay tuned!

I hope you enjoyed the list and feel free to post your own thoughts and theories on Riverdale in the comments section below. Thanks so much for reading and happy viewing!

Ranking the top 5 moments from “Riverdale” season 3 episode 19: “Fear the Reaper”

Happy Thursday TV fans! After watching the CW’s Riverdale season 3 episode 19, I realized that keeping secrets can be a dangerous game on its own. However, when you also mix in playing G&G, things are going to get crazy. Please note spoilers are ahead if you have not gotten a chance to watch yet. In last night’s episode, “Chapter Fifty-Four: Fear the Reaper,” Jughead teams up with FP and Gladys to try and rescue Jellybean. Meanwhile, Betty checks up on Evelyn, Archie contemplates giving up boxing, and Josie makes a big decision. My top 5 moments from Riverdale season 3 episode 19 are:

“We’re not end game.”

During the episode, Josie is excited that her father has come to town and she really begins to contemplate her own future. Josie says, “I want to broaden my musical horizons,” but it looks like she has been searching for something of her own for a while. After giving a dazzling performance, Josie’s father agrees to let her accompany him on tour and it looks like she could be heading off to NYC.

Josie tells Archie that they are not end game and that’s OK, but it looks like this is the end for Archosie. Josie’s return to Riverdale is uncertain and it probably has something to do with her joining another Archie Comic spin-off series called, “Katy Keene,” which will also star Lucy Hale from Pretty Little Liars. While we don’t know when or if the series will get picked up, it looks like Josie has the opportunity to really step into the spotlight now and I can’t wait to see what she does next!

“Check my file…I think I just might.”

I love when Betty gets her Nancy Drew on and this episode was no exception. Betty may not have found out much about Edgar, but she does discover a lot of interesting information on Evelyn. We discover that Evelyn has been pretending to be a seventeen-year-old Junior for over a decade at numerous schools and that she is actually 26. If that’s not shocking enough for you, we also learn that she is not Edgar’s daughter, she’s his wife. Still with me? Betty is concerned because her mother is about to marry Edgar and he also wants to adopt Polly’s twins.

Betty goes to Hal for help and he suggests someone who is “uniquely motivated” to help her, leading her to Penelope Blossom. However, it seems like Penelope is more interested in taking the boy twin and naming him Jason Junior, which doesn’t help Betty all that much. As the secrets begin to unravel, it’s interesting to see how much of an impact Evelyn can have on the teenagers around her. But what will happen when everyone finds out that she has been lying? Are the members of the Farm too far gone or is there anything that Betty can do?

“Still wanna call me the reaper?”

After the dramatic boxing match in last week’s episode, Randy is pronounced dead and the guilt immediately begins to overwhelm Archie. Fred gives Archie a heartwarming talk and tells him that he’s innocent and I just recently learned that this was actually Luke Perry’s final scene, which makes this talk that much more meaningful. This is not the first time that Archie has blamed himself, but he is far from a reaper. Archie thinks about giving up boxing, but ultimately decides to use his prize money to give to Randy’s family, which is a very generous gesture.

Elio continued to get on my nerves, pretending that he didn’t juice Randy, but it’s all starting to make sense, as we see later in the episode that he is working for Hiram Lodge. It was only a matter of time before this “truce” came crashing down between Hiram and Archie. Now that Josie is making her exit, there is an even greater potential for a reunion between Archie and Veronica, but will that sever this truce for good? Hiram is very dangerous and a master manipulator, but there’s something about Archie that brings out the worst in him and it looks like this is only going to escalate further.

“Join us.”

After getting nowhere with Penelope, Betty reaches out to Toni, hoping that she can sneak her into the Farm so that she can get the other twin out of there safely. Only Toni has now crossed over to the other side. Et tu, Toni? Toni talks about how she always wanted a family and has now found one with the Farm and leads Betty right to the heart of it. Was Toni brainwashed or is something else going on here? I find it hard to believe that she was so against the Farm previously and now has become one of its puppets.

Betty asks the Farm why they are all smiling and her mother reveals that she already knows that Edgar is married to Evelyn, which makes their union that much creepier. Betty seems like she is falling under the thrall of the Farm for a moment, but she snaps out of it. Betty remembers seeing the babies thrown into the fire before she had a seizure earlier in the season and she makes a run for it. Even though we are learning a lot more about the Farm, there are still so many unanswered questions and I hope we get to the bottom of it before the end of the season, as we only have three episodes left!

“If we play and we win, we can get Jellybean back.”

Jughead has his own family drama to deal with in this jam-packed episode, as he agrees to play the game under creepy Kurtz’s orders. And here are our players:

Deadeye: FP

Hellcaster: Jughead

The Alchemist: Gladys

In the first round, secrets are out and FP learns what Gladys has been up to. It was only a matter of time before he found out, but they need to put this aside to try and save Jellybean. FP says that there will be a reckoning, which reminds us that he will definitely circle back to this anger, however. The next task involves the Jones family robbing Pop’s Diner, which ends with FP getting shot. In the next task, we see a Cyclops card and in walks Penny Peabody, who is definitely looking for some revenge. Gladys and her fight, channeling their inner Elektra and Gladys is victorious, but definitely needs to go to the hospital as well, which means that everything is now up to our hero, Jughead.

Jughead is presented with two doors and is told to choose, as Kurtz mentions “The Lady, or the tiger,” which is a short story written by Frank R. Stockton. The story is set in an ancient country and the king is put through a set of trials, much like Jughead. He ultimately has to choose between two doorways: one leading to the princess and one leading to death. Jughead is faced with this same dilemma and ends up being trapped behind the door, as Kurtz gives the order to eliminate the princess. Jughead is able to break free and saves the day, as I breathed a sigh of relief. Yay Jughead!

Even though Jughead saves the day for now, we are still left with several unopened doors of our own. Jughead came face to face with the Gargoyle King, but he didn’t have time to stay, as he rushed off to make sure that Jellybean was all right. Gladys says that she is leaving town, but Jellybean will be staying behind, but what does this mean for the drug trade in Riverdale?

Also, Hiram is ready to step out of the shadows and it’s been quite a while since we have seen Hermione, which continues to stir my own suspicions. Plus, we learn that while Hal was being transferred to Hiram’s new prison, there was an accident and no survivors. Betty asked Hiram to transfer her father to his prison, but can you ever really make a deal with the devil? Is Hal really dead or have we just released the former Black Hood back into society? I’m not sure, but I can’t wait to find out. Stay tuned!
