Well, not only did I enjoyed this episode but it's also one of my favorite episodes ever. Especially cause of Falice who arguably stole the show, Bughead sharing the same storyline, and really I hope we get more episodes like this episode.

Really good episode. Good too see a real solid Bughead storyline. Not just individual. Liked their interaction with Donna and what’s his face? The I have never game was funny. Lili and Coles Chemistry shone in this episode.

Rest of other plots. Falice were good. Like the Archie Storyline. Bit underwhelmed by Veronica and Hiram.

I don't typically care about off the screen romances but with Cole and Lili, their chemistry is so strong I do find myself wondering where Cole/Lili stop and Jughead/Betty begin. This episode, it was like both the actors and the characters were intertwined.

I loved this episode.

I wasn't expecting the tender, sad moments honoring Luke/Fred. I should have considering it was a holiday episode. That scene when Molly/Mary broke down with Archie was so sad. The other moments were pure gold. The picture of Luke at the end... man, that smile, Luke was glowing. I also LOVED the Spiritual moment when Mary told Archie it was Fred who saved them at the Community Center. He was the one that caused the distraction so they could get the gun and protect everyone. So great. There was way more meaning to that scene... it was TPTB and actors basically saying they know Luke is around, looking out for all of them.

Other stuff:

Veronica yanking the tablecloth was the best. LOVED that moment so much. I really want Veronica to move out and live with Mary/Archie or Betty. Both would welcome her with open arms. I wonder if we'll see her sister again. I loved when Veronica made fun of her for adding one Spanish word while talking English. LOL.

Betty beating Bret was so great. Not sure I buy the story about the affair. I bet it's all an evil plot and part of the dark mystery. That said, I hate that I don't believe her, to be honest. I don't like the portrayal of a woman making up abuse, especially adult sexual abuse. I mean, it can happen, but often, it is truth. If it was made up, I wish they wouldn't have gone there. I guess we'll see. But seriously, those two running around wearing creepy bunny masks? WTF. These people are ridiculous.

I loved the Bughead romantic scenes. I know they had sex several times LOL but they don’t go there too often. Plus, they haven’t been seeing each other regularly. It's normal they would miss each other in that way. Also... when they get physical, somehow it still seems emotional first, then physical, it's tender.

I loved the Cheryl and Toni scenes. What a sweet moment when Cheryl told Toni she loved her! Awe, so adorable! I laughed at their plan to get rid of those extended family morons. I guess Toni really did kill the dude. It was self defense though or protecting Cheryl. I kind of wish they would have gone to FP but I guess that's not how it works in Riverdale. Especially since a Corpse and a Possessed Doll continue to live with them (and joins them for dinner). LOL. I have faith this storyline is leaving soon too (especially based on the previews).

So FP and Alice are officially together. It is kind of weird since... Bughead. Madchen & Skeet do have chemistry together. FP realizing that there's no reason he can't openly be a gang leader and sheriff is going to be interesting. LOL.

Mary pulling that gun was awesome; I, like Veronica, am obsessed!

Of course Hiram becomes mayor instantly. I really wanted FP to mess him up more.

Bughead were being Bugged (taped). Do they realize who Betty Cooper is? She will not only eventually take down these moronic students, but the entire school if given more time. LOL. I also really loved Betty’s glee at getting to eat junk food for Thanksgiving and referencing Charlie Brown. I love this girl.

Okay episode. I did enjoy the bughead moments a lot. I also liked the mentions of Fred and the moments with Archie and his mom. I am glad that Mary has a big role this season and her defending her son was cute.

Have Cheryl and Toni even left the mansion in the past 4/5 episodes? lol.

I didn't think that Cheryl's plan to get rid of those people was as funny. I guess it's typical in Riverdale that she'd have an aunt named ''Cricket'' though. I can't say that I know of a grown woman being called ''Crickett'', but on ''Riverdale'' it happens. It wasn't explained how she got that name.

OK. Why is Hiram the only person in Riverdale to run for mayor? I was thinking that individuals that live in that town & are grown ups who want to make a positive change, it seems like more would run for that position that according to FP comes with I think unlimited power or something to that effect. That might not be his exact words used when talking about Hiram as mayor. In real life, mayors don't I think have as much power & it's quite a difficult job particularly in bigger cities, such as 1 to the north of me in Portland.

Moving on. Archie's mom saved Archie & his pals lives perhaps while holding a gun. Most situations such as those I don't think would end like that I'm guessing. I've never been thankfully in a situation such as that though. Archie did not say: ''Stop or my mom will shoot!'' If you get that reference. Wouldn't it just be the biggest coincidence if it turns out that part of why Archie's mom apparently knows how to hold & use a gun is because she's a secret F.B.I. agent?

Onto Cheryl, whom I am a fan of. But geez. She blackmails people because cannibalism is illegal in what state exactly & committed by people that didn't know they they were at the time that they were eating humans? Hmm. That also brings up the question of Which states is cannibalism legal in? I wonder of all the murders & other crimes such as incest & arson that have been committed in Riverdale, is cannibalism the 1 that law enforcement there frowns on the most?

Finally, according to Donna she had an affair with Mr. Chipping who was ''aggressive'' with her & I think the next day he committed suicide. Whether that's actually what happened or not & I'd bet that Jughead & Betty will find out as this is what they have going on these days, it's still a depressing ending for another guest star on ''Riverdale''.
