Riverdale fans predict dark twist in musical episode as sick video tape mystery boils over

RIVERDALE fans have predicted that there will be a twist in the upcoming musical episode as the video tape mystery boils over.
Season four of the series is testing fans’ patience, as there isn’t another episode airing for two weeks amid the coronavirus pandemic.

However, many fans have unanswered questions and so have resorted to cooking up their own theories.

The CW drama will air on April 15, picking up after the murder mystery of Jughead Jones (Cole Sprouse) was uncovered.

There are only three episodes remaining in the season, so fans are speculating as to what’s in store before the finale.

Each musical episode ends with a twist and this season’s adaptation of Hedwig and the Angry Inch isn’t expected to be any different.

Reddit users made their theories known, with one writing: “At the end of The Locked Room episode Kevin mentions a variety show when they are sitting in Pops.

“Does anyone think that the next episode something could happen then?” 

A second chimed in: “The Riverdale musical episodes have always had something shocking happen.

“First Midge was murdered, then the farm clapping after Heathers. Something will definitely happen.”

While a third quipped: “If something bad happens every year when they have a musical, then it should be a hint for Kevin to stop having them?”

The most recent episode uncovered the mystery behind Jughead’s murder with Archie and the gang enjoying a milkshake in Pops’ Chock-Lit Shoppe.

Archie makes a vow that the rest of their semester will be normal when Kevin (Casey Cott) appears with a sign up list for the variety show.

The irony of this scene tells fans that something is coming in the episode, because in Riverdale the unexpected is always expected.

Fans have also theorised that the remaining episodes will reveal who is sending sinister videotapes to Riverdale residents.

There is also the case of Donna (Sarah Desjardinds) and Mr Honey’s (Kerr Smith) creepy revenge plot and even the possibility of Archie and Betty finally getting into a relationship, as it’s teased when they’re together backstage.

The series has attempted musical numbers before by adapting Broadway classics.

In season two, the cast adapted Steven King’s Carrie, which received mixed reviews.

Season three saw an interpretation of Heathers, with a Pitch Perfect twist until the production was sabotaged by the Farm.

Riverdale airs on The CW in the US on Wednesdays and on Netflix in the UK on Thursdays.
