Hey guys, welcome back to Riverdale Rapid Fire Recap. We're talking about all things trending on the show right now. In last week's episode, Hiram proved once again to be shadier than ever, still trying to get Archie involved. It's so annoying. Literally the most annoying. I just can't, because I mean, do Hiram and Hermione have anything better to do? They're just getting shadier and shadier and shadier.

Guest

I totally agree. And I actually got to talk to Marisol, who conducted a shade poll on Instagram. Let's see the results. And I saw that you did an Instagram poll with you and Mark Consuelos of who was shadier?

Young Hollywood

I did. The fans overwhelmingly chose you as shadier. Like 70%. And I don't know if they meant it as a compliment. Cuz they'd be like, "You're, you're shadier, love you!" And I'm like, "Yeah." But it was, I, okay. I was really surprised. I thought for sure it would be Hiram.

Guest

That's what I thought too. Like 100%, it's got to be Hiram.

Young Hollywood

Honestly, I have to say I agree with the fans. She's gotten consistently shadier and shadier, just like so fast. I mean, like how does one go from like angelic to really shady that fast?

Guest

I mean, I guess you're kind of right, but I disagree. I think Hiram's definitely the shadiest. He's been the shadiest throughout the whole time. I mean, as far as we know, so I think that makes him the shadiest for sure.

Young Hollywood

That is fair. However, the one that we really have to be worried about is Ms. Alice Cooper. You guys see all that blood cleanup? I feel like Alice definitely killed that someone going after her son. She's so protective. I think she could definitely do it.

Guest

Uh, just trying to play devil's advocate here. She's little Miss Perfect all the time. I don't know if she could actually kill someone.

Young Hollywood

But she was a serpent.

Guest

True. So she has it in her blood. However, I'd like to believe she didn't.

Young Hollywood

Yeah. Well, I guess we're going to have to wait and see what happens to her. But let's end on a high note because our favorite couple got back together. Bughead!

Guest

Bughead! Bughead! Yay, Bughead! Woo! I knew they'd get back together. It was just, it's inevitable. As much as I love Betty though, I feel like she's just not being honest about the Archie kiss. I really want her to tell Jughead.

Young Hollywood

I couldn't agree more. Honesty is the best policy, guys. And they screwed that up last time, so they shouldn't do that again.

Guest

Very, very true. And as much as we want to keep talking to you guys, that's all the time we have for today. So definitely check in next time. See ya.

Young Hollywood

Do Hiram and Ha Ha All right. It's like 3:00 p. m. I'm ready to sleep. I just talked to Marisol. She conducted it. I'm getting so mad. We're talking about all things trending on the show right now. Yeah. I'm sorry. I just drew. I'm sorry. I'm used to doing the intro. Why do we do this on a Monday? Episode and a three stocks idea.
