Archie at Riverdale High #13

In "Nothing But the Best," Veronica faces a sudden upheaval when her father announces she must leave Riverdale High for a private school to better fit her social standing. Archie steps in with a heartfelt reminder of Mr. Lodge’s own humble beginnings, challenging the notion that class defines worth.

In "Tiger By the Tail," Riverdale High faces a crisis when Central High steals their mascot, Hot Dog, and demands Big Moose be benched for the big game—or the mascot’s fate is sealed. With the stakes high and the team in turmoil, Archie’s unorthodox solution puts Jughead, Hot Dog’s famously volatile owner, in the lineup, setting off a chain of chaos neither team nor fans could have predicted.

In "The Account," Veronica is stunned to discover Archie has secretly saved nearly two thousand dollars in a college fund he’s been building for years. When she asks him to use some of it for a date, his firm refusal—claiming he’d rather sacrifice anything, even her—leaves her both flabbergasted and oddly intrigued.
