'Riverdale' Recap: Betty and Chic Share Their Secrets

In this episode of Riverdale, titled "Chapter Twenty-Four: The Wrestler," Archie works overtime to gain Hiram's trust, Betty learns disturbing news about Chic and, as the town celebrates Pickens Day, tensions between the North and South hit a new high.

The residents of Riverdale prepare to celebrate Pickens Day, a commemoration of its founding. Hiram Lodge wants to use the event as a way to promote the SoDale project, mainly in an attempt to win over the Southside parents who are pressuring Mayor McCoy to reopen Southside High. Hiram and Fred want to sponsor Pickens Day, making it a big celebration that will hopefully distract SoDale detractors. Mayor McCoy worries that an attempt to bring the warring factions of Riverdale together could backfire, while Sheriff Keller is concerned that the Serpents might cause trouble.
