Jackson says the killer is going to give them something. Just then, they find a small puddle of blood. There is a note on the ground in the middle of it. It reads, "Go to the place where you too were betrayed by the coach." Jackson says it must be Gerald's house. The two run out.

Daniel and Jackson arrive at Gerald's house. Daniel, seeing the house, has a flashback. We cut to him, Jackson, and a cop entering Gerald's house. Gerald jumps out, injured.

Episode Eight: Search Party
We open on the three killers. They are standing in the woods. Ripper and Nightmare look at New. Ripper says that New had no authority doing what he did. Nightmare says he had no permission to go and murder Bridget, and that he should've asked first. New apologizes, but says that he doesn't regret it, because he took out a Riverdale Eight member on his own. He says that he is the new and improved Ghostface, and that soon, he'll prove it even more.

We cut to the next morning. The now Riverdale Six, and Dakota, are mourning Bridget's death. Connor says that he deserved to die, not Bridget. Cheryl says no one should've died, and hugs Connor. Conner says that it doesn't seem real. Betty says that first they lost Ronnie, and now Bridget. Veronica says they need to find Sasha, as she must be New Ghostface. Daniel and Jackson stand up. Jackson says that they will avenge Bridget. Daniel says they will make sure of it.

Sheriff Luke and Deputy Jake are in the police station. They have a table covered in papers, and pictures connecting the victims. They add a new picture. Bridget Simpson. We see that Sasha is the prime suspect section. Luke says that the killer that murdered Bridget was confirmed to be New. Jake says that means Sasha killed Bridget, and kidnapped Dakota and Connor. Alex walks in. She sees the murder table. She asks her dad what it is about. He says it's police business. She asks for the car keys. He goes to get them out of his desk. Alex takes a picture of the murder table. Luke gives her the car keys. She says bye to her dad, and walks away.

Sarah is sitting in her office. Betty walks in. She asks Sarah if they can talk. Sarah tells her to sit down. Betty says that she and her friends have lost so much in their lives. Family and friends. Betty says that she's worried she'll lose everyone. Sarah says that Betty is not only afraid of losing, she's afraid of trusting. Betty asks why. Sarah says that Gerald and Kimberly were people Betty trusted, and they turned on her. She says that Betty is worried that someone she trusts, maybe even another Riverdale Eight member, will turn on her. Betty says that may be true. She thanks Sarah and walks out.

Daniel is going on a walk. Just then, Alex runs up to him. She says she's sorry about what happened to Bridget. Daniel thanks her. She pulls out her phone. She says there is something she needs to show him. She shows him the picture of the murder table. She says that this is a picture of all the evidence for the new murders that the police have. Daniel looks at it. He thanks Alex, and walks away. Alex watches him, and begins smiling.

We are at the police station. Luke and Jake are staring at the murder table. Jake says they still don't have enough for a guess on Ripper and Nightmare. Luke says they just need a little more evidence. Luke has an idea. He calls two cops into his office. He tells them that they need some more evidence to find a suspect to the killers. Luke says he wants them to find some at the old abandoned high school. The cops nod, and walk away.

We cut to the old high school. The two cops arrive. The younger cop says that this is not how he imagined spending his afternoon. The older cop says that if it was, he'd be worried. The cops walk into the high school. We see a figure watching them. They look around, unable to find anything. Just then, they find a table. They walk up to the table. There is a note. It reads, "Look behind you." The cops turn around. New is there. He stabs one cop in the throat. He takes the other and bashes his head into the table. Both cops are dead. New walks up to a room. There is a tied up man in it. New tells the man that he's gonna have some fun.

Veronica, Jackson, and Connor are hanging out in Jackson's house. Just then, Daniel runs up. He says they need to talk. Veronica asks him what he needs. Daniel says that they can't just sit here and wait for more deaths on the body count. He says that they haven't really worked against the killers yet, and that needs to change. He says they should go to the old high school and look for evidence. Connor agrees. He says that he needs to stop the killers after what happened to Bridget. Jackson says that if they find Sasha, she can tell them who her partners are. Veronica says they need to hurry. The four leave the house.

Daniel, Jackson, Veronica, and Connor arrive at the high school. Veronica says they need to be careful. Connor says that since Sasha is New, and killed Bridget, he wants to be the one that takes care of her. Jackson says they shouldn't kill them. Instead, they should find some answers. Daniel agrees, and says that killing will be the last resort. The four friends walk into the high school, ready for anything. As soon as they walk in, they see the two cops that were killed. Connor says that it looks like they don't like it when others look for evidence.

There is a note saying, "This is what happens when you don't mind your own business." Daniel says to ignore it. He grabs one of the cop's gun. Veronica says for her friends to watch out. Jackson says they will. The four survivors continue walking. We see New watching them. He turns around and looks at the kidnapped man, now in a long cloak. The man looks at him with terror. New says that this is gonna be fun. The four survivors continue walking through the high school. They begin to smell something. They see something covered up by a blanket. Connor uncovers the blanket. It's Sasha's dead body.

The group look at her body with disgust. Jackson says that Sasha looks like she's been dead for at the most a week. Veronica says that means Sasha isn't New. Connor says that the killers must've been using her as a red herring. Just then, New runs at them. Daniel shoots him in the heart. New falls to the ground. The four survivors walk up to New. He's dead. Daniel rips off his mask. It's the man New kidnapped. Daniel says that he doesn't even know this guy. Jackson says it must be a decoy. Just then, the real New jumps out. He grabs Daniel's hand, and smashes it against the wall, causing him to drop the gun. New kicks the gun away. He goes to stab Daniel when Connor grabs him. Connor yells that New killed his sister. He hits New in the face. New goes to stab Connor, but he dodges. Connor grabs New's mask. He rips it off.

New Ghostface is Dakota Gregg. Connor and the other survivors look at Dakota in shock. Dakota kicks Connor off of him. Dakota says he'll take care of them eventually. Dakota runs off. We cut to later. Luke and Jake are standing side by side. Luke says that even though they know Sasha isn't New anymore, at least they now know who New actually is. We cut to Daniel, Jackson, Veronica, and Connor. Daniel says he can't believe Dakota did this. Just then, F.P pulls up. He runs up to the four survivors and hugs them. He asks if they're okay. They say they are. He says the police will find Dakota.

We cut to the woods. Dakota stands alone. Just then, he is ambushed by Ripper and Nightmare. They throw him to the ground. They are about to stab him. He tells them to stop. He says that now, they don't have to keep giving him an alibi. He says they don't have to try and keep up attacks on him. He says that they have nothing to worry about, because he is the best Riverdale has to offer. Dakota smiles. Smash to black.

The Riverdale Six walk into Daniel and Jackson's house. F.P sees them. He asks Connor if he's okay. Connor says he's ok. F.P smiles with relief. He tells Daniel and Jackson he's going to bed. They tell him goodnight. F.P walks upstairs to his bedroom. He shuts the door. He opens a drawer. He pulls out a newspaper clipping. It is about Kimberly and Gerald's reveals and deaths.

We cut to the next morning. Sarah is in her office. Just then, her phone rings. She answers. It's Ripper. He asks her if she has any private sessions today. Sarah says she has one coming up almost immediately. Ripper chuckles. He asks her if she's sure. She says she is. He tells her to open Locker #113. Sarah hangs up, and walks out of the room. She looks through the hallway. She eventually finds Locker #113. She sees it is unlocked. She opens it. There is a dead body inside. She recognizes it as the student she was supposed to have a session with. He is gutted.

She hears something behind her. She turns around. Ripper is behind her, holding a hatchet. He goes to stab her, but she dodges. She kicks Ripper in the stomach, causing him to stop moving.

He begins cutting Sarah into pieces. Sarah Walker, guidance counselor, is dead.

Daniel is at home. Just then, he hears a knock on the door. He walks to the front door, and opens it. It's Alex. He tells her to come in. The two sit on the couch. He asks her what she's doing there. Alex says that she was sitting in her room, pondering a question, when she decided to come to Daniel and ask him if he had an answer. Daniel asks what the question is. Alex asks Daniel who he thinks is Ripper or Nightmare. Daniel says that they are doing a good job keeping their identities secret, so he really doesn't know. Alex says that she thinks the killer may be F.P. Daniel says there is no way F.P could be a murderer. Alex says that Daniel of all people should not trust anyone. Alex says that the killer may even be one of the Riverdale Six.

Betty is sitting with Jackson. She asks him why he didn't tell her about the investigation. Jackson says that he values her life more than his, and that if he can protect her, he will. Jackson says that if she is ever in danger, he will gladly jump in front of a knife and become the third Riverdale Eight death. Betty says she can protect herself, because she is a true heroine. Jackson smiles. Betty smiles too. The two kiss. It becomes more. Jackson and Betty pull off their clothes. They lay down, and have sex.

Luke asks who Locker #113 belongs to. Jake says it's the former locker of Ronnie Raymond. Luke kicks a tree. He says that they aren't getting anywhere, and just keep losing person after person, as the body count continues piling up. Jake says that they'll have a suspect soon, and then this will all be over. Luke says that he will find this killer.

We cut to the abandoned high school. Nightmare and Dakota are inside. Ripper walks in. He says that today was fun, as he added two victims to the body count.

 The cop falls to the ground. Ripper tells Nightmare they need to be quiet. Nightmare nods. He sneaks inside, as Ripper waits outside. Nightmare sneaks through the entire police station, almost getting caught multiple times, but getting away anyways. Finally, Nightmare makes it to the file room. There are two cops standing inside.

Just then, his phone rings. Daniel answers. It's Ripper. Ripper asks Daniel if he got the message. Daniel tells Ripper that he’s wrong, and that in the end, he will kill Ripper. Ripper says that the more Daniel and his friends try to fight back, the harder Ripper will work to make it all pointless. Daniel hangs up.

 The Riverdale Six are sitting together. Daniel is explaining what Ripper said. Jackson says that things are heating up now, more than ever. Betty says that they will have to work even harder.

He begins thinking about the recent murders and how they have become much more active. He then has an idea. He interrupts his friends. He says that the murders have been much more active, much like late in the end of the first killing spree. Jackson understands what Daniel is saying. He stands up. He says that this may be because the new murders are about to end.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"> Connor says it all makes sense, considering two survivors are dead, and they already know one killer's identity. Cheryl says that if this is true, then that means even more people will die soon. Jackson says that they need to find out who's next on the chopping block. Daniel looks at the ground in silence.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"> Jake is sitting in the police station. Just then, his phone rings. He answers. It's Ripper.

She has her eyes closed, due to having seen Dakota watching her at the end of last episode. She reopens her eyes. She tells the cops that she didn't kill Jake. The two cops ignore her completely, except for looking back at her. Just then, Dakota jumps out in front of the car. Alex tells them to watch out. The driving cop swerves and smashes into a tall metal pole. Dakota watches the car. He walks toward the car. He pulls out one cop and brutally stabs him in the back, stomach, and heart. He then takes the other cop and slits his wrists deeply, cutting his veins. Dakota walks to the backseat. He pulls Alex out. He says they are gonna have some fun.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"> The Riverdale Six are sitting in Daniel's house. Daniel explains the phone call he just received. Jackson says that this could confirm their theory: the second spree of the Riverdale murders are about to come to a close. Connor says that maybe Alex isn't one of the killers, and she was staged to look suspicious. Veronica says that it happened to Audrey and Emma in Scream Season 2, and it could be really happening now. Betty says that they need to be ready. Cheryl says that when that mask comes off, they probably won't like it.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"> It’s the next morning. Luke is standing over the car wreckage, as the two bodies are wheeled away.

Jackson explains what happened with the two cops. Betty says that is insane. Veronica says that this is just like what happened in Scream Season 2. Connor says that it happened at the end of that second season, so it may be happening at the end of this one too. Cheryl says that they need to find Alex and make sure if she is innocent or not.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"> Luke is in his office. F.P walks in. Luke asks F.P what he is doing there. F.P says that he was thinking deeply about the murders, and thinks that Alex may be innocent. Luke says that she was found next to Jake’s dead body. Her DNA was on the murder weapon. The stolen files were in her car. Luke says that no matter how much he doesn't want to admit it, Alex is one of the killers. F.P says that the killers may be throwing this out there to give a false suspect, like they did with Sasha. F.P says that Alex may just be another pawn in the Ghostface killers’ mysterious game.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"> Daniel is at his house. Just then, his phone rings. Daniel answers. It's Ripper. Daniel asks him what he wants. Ripper says he wants this game to end just as much as Daniel does, just so he can see Daniel’s face when the mask comes off. Daniel says that if Ripper wants the game to end, why doesn't he just end it already. Ripper says he likes to play with his food before he eats it. Ripper says that he is about to end it anyways. Ripper tells Daniel to get all the Riverdale Six over to the movie theater, or else one of them dies right now. Daniel  says he will do as Ripper says, and hangs up.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"> The Riverdale Six arrive at the theater. They all run inside. Jackson walks in front of them. He hands them all weapons. He gives Daniel a hatchet, Betty an axe, Veronica a hammer, Connor a hook, and Cheryl a bat. The scene is similar to the theater scene from the Season 2 finale of Scream. Daniel asks what Jackson will use. He pulls out a bag full of throwing knives. Daniel walks in front of the Riverdale Six. He says they don't have to stay as he is the main target. The other survivors look at each other. Connor says they're together. Forever. Daniel nods.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"> Betty and Veronica are guarding the front of the theater. Betty asks Veronica if she has a killer theory. Veronica says that she honestly finds F.P suspicious. Betty says she sorta does too, but she's dating his son, so it would be kinda awkward to accuse him of murder. Just then, F.P runs up. Betty asks him what he is doing there. He says that Jackson texted him and told him to come. Just then, Daniel and Jackson run up. F.P tells Jackson to let him in, and shows the text. Jackson says he didn't send the text, so he won't let F.P in. F.P angrily walks away. Jackson and Daniel kiss Betty and Veronica, and walk away.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"> Connor and Cheryl are exploring the theater. Cheryl takes Connor’s hand. She says that they will find the killers. Connor says that he will kill Dakota after what he did to Bridget. Cheryl tells him not to do anything he will regret. Connor says that he won't regret anything he does to Dakota, as long as he kills him. Cheryl looks into Connor’s eyes. They kiss. Connor says he'll make sure Cheryl doesn't suffer the same fate his sister suffered.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"> Daniel and Jackson are walking through the theater. Jackson says he can't believe they're dealing with another big finale to a murder spree. Daniel says that betrayals and murders never seem to stop in Riverdale. Just then, they hear a noise behind them. Dakota jumps out. He goes to tackle Jackson, but Jackson moves just in time, causing Dakota to run into a wall. As he turns around, Daniel and Jackson throw knives into his hands, pinning them to the wall.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"> Dakota yells out in pain. Daniel and Jackson yell for their friends. The other Riverdale Six members run up. Connor sees Dakota. He looks at Daniel and Jackson. They tell him to come on. The three male survivors begin throwing knives at Dakota, hitting his legs and chest. Dakota is on the brink of death. Before the final knife is thrown, Dakota tells them to wait. He says that the final showdown happens at the cliff, and there, secrets will be revealed. Daniel nods and throws the final knife into Dakota's head. Dakota Gregg, ex-boyfriend of Bridget Simpson, and New Ghostface, is dead. Daniel looks at the Riverdale Six. He says it's time for the finale. The Riverdale Six begin walking out of the theater.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"> The Riverdale Six arrive at the cliff. Daniel looks at them. He says that no matter what happens, he cherished his time with them. The others all nod. They walk up the cliff. They see a hooded figure tied up in a chair. Daniel lifts their hood. It's Alex. He asks if she's okay. She says she is. Just then, a gun cocks. Daniel turns around.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"> Connor Simpson is Ripper Ghostface. He tells the girls, who are behind him, to get in front of him. They oblige. Connor pulls out his knife. Daniel asks Connor why he did what he did. Connor says that when he was 16, he found out his parents had a secret. The secret was Richard Wayne's murder. When he found out about this, Connor was disgusted. Then, he wondered, how did it feel to kill. Connor decided that if his parents could hide murder, so could he. Then, he was recruited by Gerald, along with Nightmare.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"> Daniel asks him how he could let his own sister die. Connor says that Bridget was supposed to live, but Dakota decided to kill her, and kidnap him to keep him out of the way. Connor says that he always planned to kill Dakota, and he still got the chance, with the help of Daniel and Jackson. Connor says that now, he will kill the Riverdale Six. Connor says that him and his partner will plan the sequel.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"> Daniel asks Connor what Dakota’s motive was. Connor chuckles. He says that Dakota was obsessed with the Riverdale Eight. He began stalking them. Connor caught him, due to his expertise in sneaking. Connor, who had been wanting a new accomplice, recruited Dakota as New. However, Dakota was very disobedient. He did things he wasn't supposed to, like killing Bridget. This is why Connor unmasked Dakota. As payback. Connor was going to betray Dakota soon, but, as already stated, he was able to do it with Daniel and Jackson.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"> Just then, Daniel lunges at Connor. He jumps at Connor’s back. Connor stabs Daniel in the shoulder. However, Daniel his the gun out of Connor’s hand, and kicks it off the cliff. Daniel hits Connor. Connor, disoriented, is kneed in the face by Veronica. He is then kicked in the face by Cheryl. Betty hits him with a rock. Jackson tackles him off the cliff. They fall into the ocean.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"> The other four survivors, as well as Alex, watch the ocean. Just then, Jackson and Connor shoot out of the water. The five teens run off the cliff down to the beach. Jackson and Connor lay on the shore. Daniel helps Jackson up, and together they pick Connor up. They carry him to a fire and drop him in. They allow him three seconds to burn, then throw him into the ocean. Daniel and Jackson hold Connor underwater. He trashes, before finally stopping his movement. Connor Simpson, survivor, and Ripper Ghostface, is dead. The now Riverdale Five as well as Alex walk off.

We cut to a week later. Jackson is doing his voiceover. He says that another year, another murder spree has passed. We cut through our six main survivors, the Riverdale Five and Alex hanging out and laughing. We cut to F.P hugging his son and Daniel. We then cut to Luke. He is hanging up a “In Memory of” section in the police station for fallen officers. He hangs up photos of all the murdered officers, including Jake. Jackson says that there is one missing piece. He says that they have lost Ripper, but there is still one more killer. Nightmare Ghostface. We then cut to the high school. Nightmare walks up to a wall. He hangs up three pictures. Above them, it reads, “Possible New Accomplices”. We don't see who's pictures are hung up. Jackson asks if soon, the murders may continue into one last tragedy. One where, maybe, Nightmare’s mask will finally come off. Smash to black.
