They need to stop with the "Dark Betty" thing. It's getting uncomfortable given that Betty, by all accounts, appears to have an actual mental illness. The writers need to stop framing it as some cool female empowerment thing (like they did when she almost burned alive Chuck). I'd actually really appreciate a storyline where Betty goes to see a therapist (ditto for Archie who clearly had PTSD after his father got shot).
Did Archie just learn how to wrestle and even won a match (or a contest, I don't know the technical term)? I mean, is it easy to learn that fast a kind of sport that you are not familiar within a matter of days?
Right. One of the reasons Daddy Lodge got a problem with Archie is the lack of Spanish... when all Spanish that family seem to know is ‘mija’ lol.
Good episode but when are we going to get back to the Black Hood? I liked the serial killer in a small town storyline.
Also, Jughead is getting way in over his head, we get it, you're a serpent now and you defend your land but when all other serpents are laying low, adjusting even, he is just making everything so much worse.
And when did Kevin Keller get so big? Damn those muscles!?
Also, a Cooper and a Blossom, what could come out of that? Curious :)
We learn that more people show up to watch wrestling tryouts in Riverdale than they do for an actual match in 99.983% of the U.S.A. All in all, another hour of soap. I don't know if they don't have another good mystery to offer or if they think that it takes at least three episodes of table-setting to kick things off, but things are still looking bleak on that front. And it doesn't help that Jughead is once again being so annoying or that Betty and her mom are once again acting like complete idiots.
So Betty will become a camgirl at some point? And with the help and guidance of her creepy new brother... Extremely fucked up. Plus the plot of this episode was really all over the place. Not a great episode in my opinion.
Someone needs to tell the writers and actors something about subtlety.
Holy shit, they were actually in a class again for a hot second! What a rare sighting.
There's that famous school newspaper again. The most prestigious news outlet in this town, that everyone reads, for some ridiculously stupid reason.
There's no way in hell a random adult would be allowed to directly wrestle any of the teenagers. That's creepy as fuck, and the school could get sued over that.
Also, it was fucking tryouts. Why is there a crowd present? Tryouts are not a spectator event. What is this nonsense?
"My dad met with the Lodges, the sheriff, and the mayor." "Why weren't you there?"
Why do you, weirdo FBI agent, think that it would be normal for an adult to invite their teenage son into business meetings? God, none of this makes any fucking sense.

1)_ Why meet in the mayor's office when you can use Fred Andrews' dining room?
2)_ Sibling bonding time over shared anxiety induced palm-scars. How sweet.
3)_ Wrestling is so awkward. And those sorta leotards? Yeah. Not flattering. Also awkward? The sheriff taking time off work to cheer on his son on the first round of tryouts. Guess he doesn't have anything to do now that The Black Hood is outta the picture.
4)_ The porn star segue. Just, no. No. That was terrible. Also Betty spent the night watching her long lost brother's porn webcams? Ewww That's messed up!
5)_ V's daddy bullying Archie and openly questioning his masculinity. I laughed #sorrynotsorry
6)_ The Darkness /eye roll/
7)_ Jughead is getting progressively more and more annoying with each passing episode. Please stop.
