Reggie wants Jughead to pass a note from him to Veronica. He uses only initials so she may be more interested by thinking it is from the new boy Ray Muncy, with whom Reggie shares initials. Jughead plays a trick on Reggie by delivering the note to V.L. - not to Veronica Lodge, but to Virginia Lumpkin, a less attractive and less charming date.
