When Jughead accidentally signs his name to Dilton's intelligence test, Miss Grundy and Mr. Weatherbee believe Jughead has an IQ of 160 and put him on a radio quiz show against Central High's smartest student. However, Jughead still wins because every question asked was taken from the puzzle page of Wilbur Comics, his favorite series.
