Funny / Archie's Weird Mysteries

• In "Zombies of Love", Veronica is on the run from the entire town of Riverdale after accidentally making them all fall in love with her. Partway through, Betty shows up and gives Veronica a sweater she's always wanted. Veronica is legitimately distracted by this act, and it isn't until she sees the horde coming after that she remembers how dire her situation is.
• In "Dance of the Killer Bees", after agreeing to help Ethel find out where the nectar in her sunflowers went, Archie asks Jughead if he's seen "any angry bees lately" while Mr. Weatherbee happens to be nearby.
  Jughead: You mean aside from the bee?
  Mr. Weatherbee: I heard that!
• In "Driven to Distraction", Dr. Beaumont tries his best to dissuade Archie from spending his money for his date with Veronica on fuzzy dice for his car, getting more and more blatant about it every second until he has to face the audience and note how he hates how they "have to do things the hard way".
• In "Attack of the 50 Ft Veronica", Veronica gets zapped by Dilton's growth ray, and eventually grows fifty feet tall. But the funny part is when she starts growing and can't fit into the dress she bought for her date with Archie. After an angry phone call with the department store where she tries to insist that the dress must have shrunk on its own, she wears her dad's jogging suit.
  Archie: [in a suit, irritated] I thought you told me to dress up.
• In "Me! Me! Me!" when Veronica is forced to deal with all the booby traps guarding the totem. She at first remarks that they're not so hard - until a column rolls down to try and knock her into a pit. She rides on the column (in heels!) and accidentally swings herself to safety.
  "Just a reminder; I'm an average normal rich teenage girl. Not a barbarian princess."
• "Reggie or Not":
  • The robot double has suggested topics for each of Reggie's social group, including "food" for Jughead.
  • The aliens' dawning horror when they realize the "Reggie" they still have on their ship is the robot, which was implanted with an explosive to destroy Riverdale.
  • After the explosion, the Reggie-bot's head floats past the camera and wishes the audience a nice day.
• The implication from the first episode of the vampire story arc that, for some reason, the Tooth Fairy wants Jughead dead.
• "Halloween of Horror": Reggie, dressed as a werewolf, creeps up first on Jughead and then on Dilton, only for each of them to greet him casually, not scared in the slightest. When Reggie demands how Jughead knew him, Jughead retorts that he goes as a werewolf every Halloween.
• Veronica is an incredibly reckless driver. In "Twisted Youth", she gets called into Mr. Weatherbee's office to discuss her latest accident on school property. Veronica defends herself saying no one got hurt... at which point the camera reveals she drove her car through his office, and it's still there.
• "The Day the Earth Moved":
  • Archie calls on Jughead, whose sneezing creates an incredible ruckus, to help distract the worm monster from the girls. Jughead dramatically grabs a handful of dirt and throws it into his face, causing yet another humongous sneeze. Cut to Archie, grinning and wiping his face off:
    Archie: That's my boy.
  • After they send the car off a cliff to get rid of the worm, Veronica calls her father, breezily asking for a ride home because she sort of wrecked the car again.
  • Reggie confronts Archie over the worm ruining his date with Veronica. When Archie asks how the worm is his fault, Reggie retorts that he's the one wrapped up in weird mysteries; it's his territory.
• "The Jughead Incident": En route to a date, Archie and Veronica notice Jughead staggering along the sidewalk carrying something (it's a large stack of bricks). Despite having determined that nothing is allowed to get in the way, Veronica says they should stop to investigate, because if they don't, wondering why will distract them all evening.
  • Jughead's joke somehow being hilarious enough that a soldier for an intergalactic army prevented Earth from being destroyed.
• "Alternate Riverdales": Archie notices another time ripple and wonders what changed this time. Cue an angry mob of Riverdale citizens, led by Jughead and Pop Tate, arriving to grab him.
  Archie: Why do I keep asking questions I don't want answered?
