The Riverdale moment you have been waiting for has finally arrived. No, it’s not the official reveal of Black Hood (we’re allegedly still waiting on that). It’s Archie and Hiram channeling their hyper-masculine tension — Veronica would call it toxic masculinity — into an aggressive fight in the wrestling ring. You’ve seen the photos, now see the fight.
Taking his FBI investigation seriously, Archie puts down the guitar and slides into a wrestling uniform to win over Hiram. Here’s the rock-solid Riverdale logic: Hiram loves the sport, and if Archie’s on the team, the corrupt businessman will spill top secret information. Clearly, Archie’s plan backfires, much to our benefit. Elsewhere, the Picken’s Day festivities find Jughead discovering surprising details about Riverdale’s history and Veronica butting heads with Josie over their performance. And not for nothing, but Betty’s slowly beginning to piece together the puzzle that is her long-lost brother Chic.
Will Archie’s ploy to get closer to Hiram work, or will he wind up worsening their already rigid relationship? What information does Jughead learn about Riverdale’s history and Betty discover about Chic? And can the town celebrate Picken’s Day without issue? Don’t miss an all-new episode of Riverdale to learn the answers to these questions and more!
Check out a sneak peek of this week’s episode in the video below, and sound off with your predictions in the comments!
