In "Wishful Thinking," Archie's daydreaming takes a surprising turn when he wishes Veronica would suddenly throw herself at him—only to have Jughead challenge him to test the idea. The moment they arrive at Veronica’s house, the unexpected happens: she really does fling herself at Archie, leaving him stunned and unsure what’s real.
Archie finds himself stuck on a date with Carol, the serious, bookish niece of his father’s boss, much to his dismay. When Veronica and Betty take it upon themselves to give her a makeover, they accidentally turn the quiet girl into someone even more overwhelming than before.
