What will happen

Riverdale season 5 will be a tale of two parts, with the first couple of episodes wrapping up season 4’s story and the second focusing on the narrative originally planned for it. And, like with the rest of the characters, Betty’s arc will mirror that.

That leaves it pretty easy to figure out where she’ll kick things off because she’ll start season 5 as she ended season 4: Intent on figuring out who the videotape killer(s) really is and if they really killed Riverdale High principal Mr. Honey. She may need to once again rely on her mysterious half-brother Charles Smith to do so. And on that note, she will no doubt be faced with the realization that Charles and Chic are secretly together and may have been planning something evil all along.

Moreover, we do know that Betty will continue to battle with her inner darkness but, like always, ultimately overcome it as she faces the trials that the town presents her with.

That brings us full-circle. It’s not yet clear what awaits Bughead as Betty has yet to reveal the truth about what happened between her and Archie, but it will come out at some point and it will undoubtedly cause tension among the show’s core four. Tension that a new mystery just might be able to help them resolve.
