Mädchen Amick Quotes
Hal: And the title of Miss Riverdale Teen Queen 1955 is…
Alice: Ethel Muggs.
Alice: You know, I was Miss Riverdale Teen Queen back in my day.
Betty: I know. Everyone knows.
Alice: The night I was crowned, it was the greatest night of my life. I thought I could do anything. Be anything. You know, well, it’s silly, but I thought I might grow up to be a stewardess and travel the world to see glamorous places.
Betty: You wanted to be a stewardess? That I did not know.
And if I catch wind of you even saying “hello” to that redheaded pervert. Well … you don’t want to see me frosted, young lady.
Alice
Betty: Kevin is fine. I just saw him at the coffee house. And rest assured, he’s found a shoulder to cry on. A very manly shoulder.
Alice: And?
Betty: And?! Looking back, that’s been the problem with us this whole time, Mom. Kevin likes boys!
Betty: Mom, can I ask your advice about something?
Alice: Of course, Honey. What is it?
Betty: I think I’m having weird feelings about Archie.
Alice: Oh? What sorta feelings?
Betty: Like stirrings. When we were dancing, I felt a flutter in my stomach.
Percival Pickens: I was among those early settlers.
Alice: How was that possible?
Percival Pickens: Patience, Alice. All will be revealed in time.
Betty: How about the fact that Dad was grooming me to be a murderer just like him! Did you know?
Alice: No! Absolutely not. That didn’t happen, Betty. Where is this coming from? Is this your persecution complex again?
Betty: Oh my God, whatever. I promise you I will get to the truth, Mom.
And with that, a huge congratulations to the newest member of the Riverdale town council, Percival Pickens!
Alice
Wow, I don’t believe it. When will I ever learn? I fall for the strong silent type every time.
Alice
Betty: Mom, stop. You’re freaking me out! Tell me honestly, is your plan honestly to never leave the house?
Alice: Why would I? I have everything I need right now. All of my children.
Betty: Mom, you know Charles and Polly aren’t really here, right?
[Betty puts an urn on the table]
Alice: What’s that?
Betty: Polly’s ashes. I thought having might bring you some comfort or closure.
Dream Polly: That can’t be right. I’m sitting right here. Tell Betty to stop being a brat.
Alice: Betty, what are you doing here?
Betty: I took the record player out of the house. You won’t need it anymore. Years ago, I made you a promise that I would come back to Riverdale … which I broke. But right now, I’m making you a new one. I’m not leaving you alone, ever.
Whoever is terrorizing our town, committing these inhumane murders, you have to stop! Every time the phone rings, I pray it’s about my daughter. I pray for closure. Just today, another victim was found. Their dismembered body is down at the Riverdale morgue. What does it say about me that I want it to be my daughter? So that this nightmare will end. [Sobs] So that I can wake up. Please, help me wake up.
Alice
