Spoilers ahead for Episode 13 of Riverdale Season 7, called "The Crucible."
The 1950s action continued on Riverdale in "The Crucible" when – unsurprisingly, given the title of the episode – the high school went through a mini Red Scare of its own with communism claims made against the English teacher. Mark Consuelos and Marisol Nichols reprised their roles as Hiram and Hermione Lodge to complicate Veronica's life, a '50s version of Miss Grundy turned up, Archie gave his all in an Arthur Miller monologue, Betty got to do more than lust after her peers... and not even Jughead's storyline gave an indication that the show is leaving the past behind. Actress Mädchen Amick has now addressed whether the show will go back to the future, and her comments are complicated.
