The mystery and character arcs they play off of keep things interesting the majority of the time, but every once and a while an episode shows up and screws up the curve for the rest of them. Tonight, that episode is "When A Stranger Calls."

That's right Bugheads, y'all need to be worried.

That this storyline is so oddly prescient and timely is impressive on Riverdale's end.

Since the premiere, the show's been flailing, capping us off with that Red Circle business (which is so easily forgotten this week I'm even more offended we had to sit through it), but "When A Stranger Calls" is a delightful hour.

Not trying to be glib comparing the fiction of what happened in tonight's episode to real events and the horrific trauma that so many victims out there have had to deal with, but rather speaking of how, planned or not, Riverdale is mirroring our society

When a Stranger Calls is the best of the series so far. It's full of pain and misery, all earned rather than just being cheap, thanks to a pair of plotlines that feel all too familiar.

When I said last week I wanted to see more of Cheryl this season... yeah, this isn't what I meant.

Welcome to my favorite episode of Riverdale this season

There have been sexy shower scenes, shirtless dudes, women stripping off clothes...but I'm sorry. Alice Cooper walking into that party is the win of the season.

Aside from these very real horrors, Riverdale still offered us our weekly dose of sweet Riverdale drama.
