Mr. Lodge buys up all the restaurants on the same block with Pop Tate, and decides that Archie and Veronica should make Pop a small offer on his malt shop before he has to declare bankrupcy.

When things look bleak, Moose announces his true first name and that's he's running for mayor of Riverdale.

On page 4, Betty talks about other boys she's dated since Archie got married, each an Archie clone: Henry Aldrich, Andy Hardy, Richie Cunningham, Zach Morris and Troy Bolton. On page 13, Cheryl takes about her current love life with a talent agent, a baseball player and a famous playwright, all aping the loves of Marilyn Monroe. Fred Mirth is a homage to Fred Mertz, Ethel Mertz' husband from the TV show "I Love Lucy."

Betty gets a pay reduction at work and has her workload increased. Mr. Lodge offers to make Archie a superstar if the boy leaves Betty to go back to Veronica. Angered by the proposal, Archie throws Lodge out of the bar he's singing at. Feeling dejected and with few prospects, Archie stops at a dive, only to meet his childhood friend Ambrose.
