In “Chapter Eighty-Seven: Strange Bedfellows,” in the aftermath of the prison break at Hiram’s (Mark Consuelos) jail, Archie (KJ Apa) leads the charge to round up the remaining convicts on the loose. Tabitha (Erinn Westbrook) reaches out for Betty’s (Lili Reinhart) help when she realizes Jughead (Cole Sprouse) is missing. When Penelope (Nathalie Boltt) re-enters the fold, Cheryl (Madelaine Petsch) becomes suspicious of her true intentions.

“I think we can say that this is pretty much rock bottom for him,” showrunner Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa told TV Line about Jughead. “It’s Jughead as much of a lost soul as we’ve ever seen.”

“We’ve only just begun to scratch the surface of Jughead’s trauma. There are a lot more darker things coming,” Roberto added.

The ep also stars Camila Mendes, Madchen Amick, Casey Cott, Charles Melton and Drew Ray Tanner.
