Well, some things are finally over, and it was quite good and entertaining. No real aliens, no nonsense. And, oh, Polly (I did not think they would do that). The Jughead-Betty team was good and I loved Fang and Toni. Also, the final scene was very well done.

Archie story itself was fine, but a lot of things make no sense. Mainly a) Nobody told Betty and Jughead that a mine fell over Archie and Eric. (!!!!) b) Chad acts like a complete idiot. If he suceeded in killing Veronica he would have been the main suspect. And, given than Archie knew he tried to kill him, he would have a lot of trouble. Especially if Archie still has the gun.

C) Veronica killing Chad without breaking a sweat, kidnapping and threatening to kill his dad, as if she was a sort of expert assassin.

Also, no idea what is happening with Cheryl storyline.

This episode felt like i was watching season 3 again, it was boring and repetitive. The varchie scenes were uncomfortable to watch as it feels so forced and one-sided as veronica is basically obsessed with archie at this point. Veronica just casually killing chad and then bragging about it was character assassination at its finest. The fact that neither jughead or betty found out about the mines was so stupid (jughead literally lives with archie and didn't notice him not being there??) don't even get me started on the cheryl storyline... is she a witch now because that wouldn't even be surprising at this point. I enjoyed the team up with toni, fangs, betty, tabitha and jughead though but i think it would've been better if it was in a different episode as it felt as though too much was happening at once and all the storylines were disconnected. Overall i think the episode made absolutely no sense and it was the same stuff we have been seeing the past 5 seasons with bughead investigating and varchie going against hiram we need something different for once. The only reason i am giving it 2 stars is because lili and mädchen were fantastic in the final scene and it was really heartbreaking seeing alice and betty find polly's body.

Oh wow! I cannot believe that the writer of this episode could pack so much into one hour. Where can I even begin? The scheming, evil incarnate in human form Hiram Lodge, one of the most loathsome villians since JR Ewing and Loren Singer on JAG, triggers and explosion in the mine trapping Archie Andrews. This pushes Veronica to the brink of murder as she finally disowns her evil father telling him of all the pain he has caused her. In addition, Veronica also gets closer by getting to kill her scumbag husband Chad. If there was ever a case of justifiable homicide! HOWEVER SPOILER ALERT, all of this is but a frivilous comedy compared to the horror that poor Betty has to go through as well as her mother when at the very end they find Polly's body in the trunk of a junk car and share a moment of unbearable grief. This has got to be one of the saddest endings I have ever seen. I know it's only a tv show but it still gave me chills.

FINALLY some good Bughead content :')

This episode felt really like *Riverdale*, the Riverdale we have all missed and love - it was a breath of fresh air. I honestly now understand why Betty and Jughead haven't worked together all season - clearly, if they had, they would have figured out the mystery too soon LOL. The buildup was worth the wait. Even if they don't get back together just yet, this is a step in the right direction for them.

It was wonderful to see Veronica as the focus of the episode. She is the actual queen.

And seeing Veronica and Archie finally happy and back together was just the icing on the cake. You can really see how deeply these two characters love each other and would literally do anything for each other. Them getting their romantic reunion was wonderful. Adult Varchie are really slaying the game.

Plenty of good, plenty of terrifying, plenty of sad, plenty of fabulousness.

A gut wrenching episode all around.

This is the best episode of season 5..I mean finally we got to know that who was the mothmen and who tf actually killed polly..all the fragments were perfectly fitted to the puzzle..and the last scene OMG!! I was crying so hard,I really got chills,lili and madchën did amazing work!!! Just hats off!! And veronica's story was amazing too.. .

. I'm so excited for the next episode❤😁😁

I really enjoyed this part but it was not worth all the patience but I am glad that we finally got to a good part I hoped it would be more in the scene where Mathman attacked them. Veronica's reaction to killing Chad was very bad and I liked the role of Shirley in this episode, but it is not interesting that she thinks she is a witch. But I think the episode was very good, except for a few things I said.

Hiram is infinitely worse than Chad and yet Veronica shot him and was super gleeful about it (as she should be) but if it was that easy why the heck can't she just do the same to Hiram... glad he's finally getting treated like the clown he is but god, can we just get him off the show already? All that development in his flashback episode for him to go back to doing the same stuff. I'm sure Mark Consuelos could be doing better things right now. And let's not even get started on them not even disguising Kevin's absolute irrelevance this season or whatever is going on with Cheryl. Y'all-

Awful... Nothing happens in the episode, it's the same thing we've seen too much already. And when « vilains » make plans that are so obviously bound to fail, you wonder why it was even brought up in the first place. It's lazy at best, but mostly insulting to viewers. Especially when Riverdale is at that point, where everything is set to make its characters look good in the most outrageous way. So what is there left to tell? Why not put the heroes at a really vulnerable state, and see how they overcome this, for once? Like say, have Veronica and Cheryl completely penniless, and unable to rely on their heritage, and parents connexions anymore?... Hopefully season six will end this downward spiral of everything bad TV...
