In "The Prom," Archie and his friends face a classic prom-day mishap when their car gets a flat tire. As the clock ticks, Reggie steps in with a ride—only for Veronica to politely decline—before Chief Johnson arrives in his flashy new firetruck with an unexpected offer to chauffeur them both.
Archie’s handed a tricky mission: return Mrs. Jones’ lost purse to her without getting caught by the gang. With the whole neighborhood on alert, he’s got to pull off the stealthiest delivery of his life—no easy feat when everyone’s watching.
In this playful 1964 tale from *Archie #146*, Betty and Veronica tease Archie into believing he’s a wild tiger—dangerous and unpredictable—just for fun. When Midge sees him acting strangely around the girls, she panics and pleads with Big Moose to stay away, convinced Archie’s feline persona might lead to trouble.
