After a mysterious narrator hints that some things were never meant to change, we find Archie driving Mr. Weatherbee's Yakasaki Pigeon back from the auto shop, where the repairman has fixed the dent it sustained in Archie and Me #141. But the car is commandeered by the police, chasing two crooks who just robbed a bank and took off in a getaway car disguised as a "Chubby Charlie's Chicken Shack" float in a parade through downtown Riverdale.
