she needed money but did not want to open the speakeasy because she wanted Archie to be there, dancing with her. + the only argument that made her open it was “that’s exactly what Archie didn’t want.. for you to just put your life on hold”
it was truly hurtful for him to let her go and he literally told her that he saw their married life with kids since the first moment he saw her
Jughead gave him all the reasons to not k word Hiram but Archie didn’t care at all and wasn’t even hesitating but as soon as Jughead mentions Veronica as a reason to not do it he changes his mind.
driving Archie away from her is driving her away too + talking about Archie was literally like twisting the knife.
Reggie was jealous because he knew Veronica was still into Archie even tho she didn’t want to admit it, she comforted him by saying “it’s not what you think” but then..
the only thing he was thinking about when he was drunk was literally her, let’s no forget he started drinking because he had lost so much but Veronica was the one keeping him sane but then she rejected him so he had nothing left but alcohol.
she called him “my ex boyfriend” and “my boyfriend” in the same exact episode + she was still not over the fact that Hiram cost her Archie, very cute if you ask me.
he was with Josie but he was about to kiss Veronica anyway + Fred knew what was going on and he knew that the “friends” thing was a goddamn lie.
his love for her was still the same. it is obvious that this line from Archie is about his love for her and Veronica’s reaction to it + “true...” she knew what he meant and she felt the same way.
she gave him all the reasons to get back on the ring and he didn’t care but as soon as she says “for me?” he doesn’t even hesitate.
if you freeze out there just focus on someone that makes you feel safe, right? yes! the show used this multiple times already, whenever Archie freezes out there he focuses on her.
he went at her house late at night because he knew he wanted to be with her and he was finally ready to confess that he still loved her.
he admitted that even when he was with Josie his feelings for V were still here. he admitted that behind those “we are just friends” there was something else, something that he kept for himself for too long and the idea of losing her without her knowing it, was too much.
they almost kissed in the previous ep of this one after she said “i’m always in your corner” but she still used it, she knew what she was doing.
they were broken but this guy still manages to smile and look at her like that, am i invading their privacy ?

she couldn’t call him “Archiekins” anymore so she had to find another one bc we know damn well that V can’t call her man by his name unless it’s something important.

the cheerleader/bulldog scene the writers could never give us BAHAHAHA...... but this scene truly deserved, Veronica did all of this only to support him.
she always made sure to remind Hiram that he will not keep them apart and + the “I need to cheer my boyfriend to victory” was so cute help.

yeah act like this kiss wasn’t THE kiss of the century. the song, the heart eyes, the place, the love confession, the kiss itself.. I remember after the ep aired someone said it felt like a kiss from a romantic movie and I couldn’t agree more.
after the heartbroken scene in 3x21, the first thing we saw in 3x22 was Mary still being interrested in where those two stand romantically and Archie was still heartbroken by the “and she said she wanted to be with me too” “is that true?” “that is what I said...”
Betty was next door, Josie was his girlfriend.. he went to Veronica for comfort, let’s that sink in.
the one thing Archie wanted was to come back in Riverdale but once he found out about the kiss he regretted ever coming back.
it was the first time they interacted since the “if you ever need a friend to talk to..” and yet they were already looking at each other like they wanted to be together again.
okay i’m finally done!! I couldn’t added all their scenes bc if I did this thread would have been way longer but it’s already long so.. i tried to add the most important ones tho! now y’all better stop saying season 3 is their worst because it was definitely their best
