Riverdale Chapters 40 & 41: The Great Escape

Things are constantly happening on Riverdale but this week things are really popping off. We have a prison break, Jughead getting way into G&G (and then forgetting about it), Archie leaving town and Betty getting to the bottom of all the parents fishy behavior. They also lock up Betty for being right!
