Fearful that he will be caught, Archie hits the road and ends up at a farm outside Riverdale; Betty finds herself up against a formidable foe from her past; Veronica makes a risky business decision that could cost her everything.
This was a really weird and not all that entertaining or exciting of an episode that had some good parts to it but it just felt so out of place. Everything with Archie and Jughead on their whole road trip adventure was just odd and out of place, where they go to this random town and get a place to stay on this farm as long as they do some work. And through their work they discovered that the Griffins and Gargoyles game has reached this town and apparently Veronica's dad essentially owns the town and everyone follows him blindly and that just felt so odd that this random mob boss guy could take over a bunch of small towns in would want to just for the chance that it could come in handy for him in the future. Then Archie having this random one-off relationship with the owner of the farm felt so odd with him just breaking up with Veronica. Then how they eventually escaped and outsmarted Hiram was just odd too and didn't make much sense and it just felt so overdramatic. Everything with Betty and her stay in the Sisters of Quiet Mercy Asylum was probably some of my favorite moments in this episode with her going up against and also teaming up with Ethel to figure out more of the history around the Griffins and Gargoyles game and dealing with some of the people that are the most in-depth into this game. Then everything with Veronica again felt like just a bunch of shoed in moments to give Veronica something to do in the episode where her whole part was to figure out how to get more money for her speakeasy so she decides to have a casino night and brings in one of her dad's mobster friend's sons to host and then she figures out a way to outsmart him so she actually is gaining a prophet and it just felt really kind of pointless and unnecessary for the grander scheme of this episode. Then just overall this was an okay episode that had some good moments but it just felt really odd and unnecessary and just way too overdramatic and overdone.
