Then Toni went to live at the bottom of a lake.
And now Reggie’s in hell.
Speaking of which, let’s get into it!

The plot of this episode revolves around one man.
He wears a black suit.
He can cause heart attacks in an instant.
And he really has a thing for souls.
But most importantly, his name is Lou.
Then when Pop Tate discovered that about his father, he soldhissoul to save his dad.
I know what you’re thinking: Now Tabitha is going to sell her soul to save Pop Tate.
But Lou doesn’t want her soul!
He want’s the Chock’lit Shoppe instead!
(The devil just really loves a good milkshake, you know?)
But Pop Tate, once he wakes up in the hospital, tells Tabitha no.
She can’t sell Pop’s because it’s the soul of Riverdale.
But we’ll come back to that.
One musical number later and Kevin signs his soul to the devil.
But unlike a former classmate, the devil really will K.I.T.
worse) soul, the one belonging to Nick St. Clair.
Veronica then invites Nick to the casino and convinces him to tell her all his sins.
She has a thing for details.
The devil’s in the details!)
But wait, Lou says he’ll still see Veronica on Saturday.
Because Reggie never sold his soul he sold Veronica’s!
He tricked her into signing the contract one week when she thought she was signing invoices.
Talk about true love!
So what’s Veronica’s plan to save herself?
Give the devil Alice.
It doesn’t work at first, mostly because Betty doesn’t care about her dad.
But when Betty hears Polly’s voice, she snaps, stabbing the devil in the chest repeatedly.
Only it wasn’t the devil, it was Glenn.
So yeah, Betty just murdered her ex and an FBI agent!
and shoved him under her house.
She might not have signed a contract, but I’d say the devil won that one.
Jug says he’ll decide after he hears the story.
He then asks the devil to “start at the beginning.”
As in… the beginning of time?!
How long is this conversation about to be, Jug?!
And, spoiler alert, he regrets it!
Honestly, why does this not seem like a big deal to anyone in this town?
This brings us back to Tabitha, who gets a little help from a guardian angel.
Pop and Tabitha also drank a couple tears, so they’re protected too.
Last but not least, let’s get back to Veronica.
So in a way, she and Betty both became murderers this episode.
And she starts… with Reggie.
And now their love story ends the way we always expected: with Reggie burning in hell.
All I know for sure is that I’ll never recover from Lou Cypher.
(And maybe neither will Reggie.)
