Betty and Archie have identical cell phones and accidentally swap them. Veronica then texts Archie to make a movie date and texts Betty to change their movie location -- both scheduled for the same night. When Betty and Archie realize they have the wrong cellphone, they turn the tables on Veronica by texting her back, accepting both of the changes. But Betty uses Veronica's phone to set her up to meet someone else from school, and Archie and Betty go to a movie together, as planned.
