Somehow, the year is 1955. Somehow Archie Andrews and all of his friends, me included, are teenagers again. And I’m the only one who remembers what our lives were like “B.C.” Before the comet.

Jughead

Betty: I know I said I wanted to wait, but will you marry me?
Archie: Are you serious?
Betty: As serious as a comet hurdling towards Riverdale.
Archie: Yes. Yes! I’ll marry you.

Veronica: Don’t worry, Cheryl. I will be transferring our powers to you via a kiss.
Cheryl: A, that’s queer-baiting. And B, won’t your poison kiss kill me?
Veronica: A, it’s not queer-baiting; it’s saving the world. And B, pretty sure your phoenix power trumps my poison power.

Oh my god! Sorry, Daddy, I just figured out a way to save my friends!

Veronica

Archie: Toni, Anthony is baby.
Toni: Right now, he is. But we’ve had the privilege of seeing Anthony in the future, and he’s a warrior, Archie. What if Tabitha speeds up time, just for Baby Anthony? Ages him up. We would miss his childhood, but that’s a sacrifice I’m willing to make. Percival would never see it coming.
Reggie: Damn, that’s some looper-level crap.

[Chainsaw raging] Come get some!

Betty

Jughead: You know I’ve been looking forward to this. A test of our mental prowess. Must have I admire your hubris, and while your psychic abilities have been impressive, you’ll never break into my mind.
Percival Pickens: We’ll see about that. I’m a believer in beginner’s luck.

Our villain’s name is Percival Pickens. He’s an immortal, interdimensional sorcerer whose power is growing by the hour. He wants to claim Riverdale or destroy it depending on the outcome of a war we’re pre-destined to lose.

Jughead

I want a land that I rule as I see fit. Where my enemies are at my mercy. I want a land controlled by the dark arts, free from the laws that stifle the rest of this country. The Sovereign State of Percival! That’s what I want Riverdale to be. A wild untamed land where I control it all, every last bit. Even the dead.

Percival Pickens

What are you, a wizard? Is everyone in this universe a wizard?

Jughead

Betty: I’m so sorry! I’m so sorry for everything. I’m so sorry for the fight that we had. That I wasn’t a better sister to you, and that I wasn’t able to protect you or save you.
Polly: Betty, none of that matters now. All of that pain, all of that suffering just fell away.

Percival Pickens: I was among those early settlers.
Alice: How was that possible?
Percival Pickens: Patience, Alice. All will be revealed in time.

Riverdale Season 6 Quotes

Archie: Cheryl, I’m not a virgin!
Cheryl: No, you’re certainly not. But you have the distinction of being our town’s one true pure heart. We needed a king who was willing to die for his queen. Only he would be worthy.

Archie: What is this?
Cheryl: A ritual. For me and for all of us here. Something has been made abundantly clear: if we want our maple trees to thrive again, if we want Rivervale to have a bountiful year in all respects, a sacrifice has to be made. But, the right kind of sacrifice.
Archie: Cheryl, this is insane. I won’t let you sacrifice Betty!
