What's up, Riverdale fans? Welcome to our Riverdale Rapid Fire Recap where we talk about all things trending on Riverdale right now. Last week we watched the episode "When a Stranger Calls," and it had one of the biggest plot twists of all of the season so far. The Bughead break. Dun, dun, dun. Dun, dun, dun. My heart is breaking because I've been shipping them from the beginning.

Guest

She really has, it's true.

Young Hollywood

You really, she called it.

Guest

She did.

Young Hollywood

I totally called it when Cole came into the studio, he was impersonating Lily, and they're just the cutest ever, right?

Guest

Literally, the cutest. Hashtag.

Young Hollywood

Let's watch the clip to prove my point.

Cole Sprouse

Person most likely to get stuck on a desert island? Oh, Lily. Oh. Not a doubt in my mind.

Young Hollywood

Why?

Cole Sprouse

I feel like she just stumbles, she stumbles into situations where she's like, "I'm not equipped for this." Um, so, uh, yeah, definitely.

Young Hollywood

Uh, I love him. But after last week's episode and the Toni Topaz, Bughead situation, I'm not really sure what's going to happen. I know. I was not expecting that at all. We actually just have Vanessa Morgan in studio who plays Toni, and she asked our Magic 8 Ball if Toni Topaz will ever find love. Let's find out what it says. Okay, will Toni Topaz find love this season? Oh. It says, oh, that's boring, it says, "undecided."

Guest

Undecided.

Young Hollywood

Okay, actually, it just changed to "always." I'll take it. Wah, wah, wah. Well, Toni is really mixing things up in Riverdale right now, and while we don't know who she's going to end up with on the show, we know who Vanessa would date IRL. Um, if you could choose any character for Toni to have a romance with, who would it be and why?

Vanessa Morgan

Any of the characters on the show would be so great. You know, if it was say who Vanessa wanted to date, that would be Madelaine, because she's one of my best friends in real life. But who would, yeah, but who Toni Topaz, I don't know, I'd feel blessed to date any character on the show, because everybody's so cool. It's so hard to pick.

Young Hollywood

That's a good answer. Yeah. I like it. I love that they're best friends. They're actually my favorite. But, back to Bughead. Do you think they're ever going to get back together? I just really don't know at this point. You know, I'm kind of feeling this bump in the road. Not going to lie. Don't hate me. I kind of dig it.

Guest

Okay, Bughead to say that.

Young Hollywood

Jughead is thriving.

Guest

Thriving.

Young Hollywood

Right now. You just like the drama. He's living his best life. Kissing other girls from the Southside. With like a bunch of like marks and stuff on his, I mean, whatever, let's see what happens, okay? All right. Well, I'm team Bughead. You're team, what's the ship name? What's the ship name? You know it's real when there's a ship name. What is the ship, okay, so Toni and Bughead? Toh, oh, ton- Bughead, that's not good. That's not good. All right, Carly, well, that looks like we're all out of time for today's Riverdale Rapid Fire Recap. We'll see you guys next time. Peace out.

Guest

Tell me when you're going to start because I'm going to do my head like, Okay, I'm going to start. Thriving. I can do that. Thriving. This is crazy. I know. It's fantastic. But back to Bughead. Oh, you're the best.
