What with a million other plots serving main characters happening. Britta Beach (Kyra Leroux) does not originate in the Archie comics, and I wish her coming out story had a bit more time to gestate, but its understandable why it didn’t.gets multiple scenes is a quality episode. “Another brush with death to add to your ever-growing list” says Veronica to Archie, tongue firmly planted in cheek.This episode’s use of Wagner’s Flight of the Valkyries during Veronica’s confrontation with Chad was inspired, if a tad cliched.Given the variety of fake products that inhabit this show’s universe, it is always strange when a real product placement (in this case, Chime) is featured.Archie doing his best Captain America impersonation by launching a trash can lid at Chad was amazing.His actions were so appalling he was even name-checked in Billy Joel’s “We Didn’t Start the Fire.” The Starkweather clan’s name is a reference to famed American serial killer Charles Starkweather.That combined with the fact that the October 6th finale is titled “Riverdale R.I.P.” indicates that his reign of evil might just be getting started.
(We see his transformation beginning when he torches the picture of his family). The reasoning? So he can come back more villainous than ever. Speaking of Hiram, it is clear that the writers have been making him into a “silly cartoon” of late.Veronica must have caught wind of Josie calling her dad a “little bitch” a few weeks back, as she does the same here.The contrivance of the week was how Archie was trapped in a mine fighting for his life and no one thought to call Betty or Jughead.This episode was directed by Penelope Blossom herself, Nathalie Boltt.Tabitha’s friend and former Chok’lit Shoppe employee Lynette “Squeaky” Fields is an obvious reference to Manson Family associate Lynette “Squeaky” Fromme.FYI: If you or anyone you know needs help, the National Human Trafficking Hotline is 1-88.
