As Betty (Lili Reinhart) and the audience learned, the parents got deeply into Gryphons and Gargoyles when they were in high school, which ultimately led to the death of Principal Featherhead (Anthony Michael Hall). As Alice (Madchen Amick) explained, she’s unsure if anyone in The Midnight Club was behind Featherhead’s death, and could be the true “Gargoyle King” who has been terrorizing the present day.
The synopsis also hints that Veronica (Camila Mendes) will be “in hot water” after trying to prove Archie’s (KJ Apa) innocence, something that might already color the prison break in this week’s “The Great Escape” episode.
