In "Clean Up Campaign," Archie and Betty set out to document a local litterbug, only to discover the culprit is the son of the very committee head leading the town’s cleanliness drive. As they snap photos of the messy mischief, the pair finds themselves tangled in a situation that’s as messy as the streets they’re trying to clean.
In "No Fuel like an Old Fuel," the gang’s picnic plans hit a snag when a gas shortage leaves their jalopy stranded. With creativity and a bit of ingenuity, they rig a sail to get them to the countryside, but the real challenge begins when they’re stuck without wind on the way home—no fuel, no breeze, just a long push ahead.
In "The Birth Of A Nation," Archie and the gang visit Washington D.C. for the bicentennial celebrations, where Archie’s admiration for the Declaration of Independence sparks a surprising journey—suddenly, he finds himself living through the entire American Revolution. The story follows his unexpected immersion in history, blending patriotism with the kind of wild, time-bending adventure only Archie can find.
In "The Image Makers," Captain Archie leads a mission to the mysterious Planet Clonis, where he's greeted by a seemingly welcoming surface. When Betty and Veronica arrive to assist, they soon realize the planet's idyllic appearance is a deceptive illusion — a dazzling holographic facade concealing a deadly trap designed to ensnare Earth's visitors.
In "The Big Chase," Archie and the gang reenact last year’s Sadie Hawkins race at a ski chalet, turning the snowy slopes into a wild, hilarious obstacle course. With the boys sprinting ahead, Jughead’s slick vinyl suit sends Ethel tumbling into their ski instructor, Archie dodges Betty and Veronica by hijacking a snowmobile driven by Midge—who’s got her eye on him for the dance—and soon Jughead’s distracted by a dream buffet, while Archie finds himself on the run again—this time from Moose.
