It was a good episode. *Spoilers****

Not sure when Jughead became the emotional center of the show, but it really improves the overall appeal. Jughead & Betty are a super couple. When they are struggling, the world seems like an empty place. When Jughead looked up at Betty on the steps, it was magic. Archie & Veronica brought some heat during their song, but Jughead & Betty remain #1. The murder mystery may be moving forward because someone is desperate enough to try to frame Jughead's dad and meddling Archie & Veronica can prove it. Only 2 episodes left. Other random thoughts. Archie's Mom was weird with that whole "both my dates" comment. The Blossom wig collection was super creepy, and Cheryl remains a great supporting character apparently with an amazing grip and a sharp tongue, "I'll never do anything nice for anyone ever again". Can't wait for next week!

I kept waiting for a surprise scene where Polly is smart enough not to drink that shake and was faking being unconscious to trick the Blossoms. Instead she proves once more that she really is too stupid to live.

I was waiting for this too!

The Blossoms are evil geniuses and master manipulators. If Polly is going to bring them down, she is going to need a lot of luck and probably some help from Betty & Jughead.

If anyone will bring the Blossoms down it's Cheryl. I think she was bright enough to see the "you are a true blossom" stunt for what it is. Though seeing her parents express real grief over Jason has thrown her for a loop.
