Percival explains it all, and Surprise! He's settler colonialism and catholic guilt in a trenchcoat. Jughead and Tabitha see things. Real stakes, higher than we've seen since Midge Klump? A penultimate tour de force that ties the whole season together.
This penultimate penultimate sees our stakes shoot through the roof with seven plagues upon this wicked little town.
