* When Betty goes to chat with Cheryl, she finds the redhead in a pool chair, sunbathing next to a fountain, and generally looking like she's about to be in a ''Vogue'' photoshoot. Even when she's all alone at home, Cheryl ''still acts as dramatic as possible''.
** And the race later? Cheryl decides she gets to be the backup girl who starts it off. Because, again, it's the most dramatic role in the day short of being a racer.
* When the Mayor decides to crack down on the Serpents at Southside High, Archie finds Jughead and drags him off ''seconds'' before the Mayor and Chief Keller burst through the front doors like they're storming the beaches at Normandy. Robin Givens ''really'' sells the Mayor's fury. And yet, it's a tad overdramatic, and thus a ''little'' funny.
