With only a day to go until Showrunner Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa & The CW's Riverdale returns for its final run, it's time we started talking about "Sex Education." No… not that uncomfortable 9th-grade health class taught by your gym teacher. We're talking about S07E03 "Chapter One Hundred Twenty: Sex Education," set to hit screens on April 12th. Yesterday, we had the official overview to pass along – and now, we have the official episode images to go along with it (all waiting for you in our updated Season 7 rundown below). And just a quick reminder that although the season kicks off in the 1950s, Aguirre-Sacasa shared during an interview with Decider that another time jump is on the way (though it's still the 1950s through Episode 13, at least). Does that mean Aguirre-Sacasa already knows how it's all going to end? "We are not done writing the season," he added. "We are nowhere done near writing the season."
Riverdale Season 7: A Look at What's Ahead
The seventh season of Riverdale goes where no season has dared to go before — the 1950s! Picking up where last season ended, Jughead Jones (Cole Sprouse) finds himself trapped in the 1950s. He has no idea how he got there nor how to get back to the present. His friends are no help, as they are living seemingly authentic lives, similar to their classic Archie Comics counterparts, unaware that they've ever been anywhere but the 1950s.
Archie Andrews (KJ Apa) is the classic all-American teen, coming of age, getting into trouble, and learning life lessons; Betty Cooper (Lili Reinhart) is the girl next door, starting to question everything about her perfect life—including her controlling mother Alice (Madchen Amick); Veronica Lodge (Camila Mendes) is a Hollywood starlet who moved to Riverdale under mysterious circumstances; Cheryl Blossom (Madelaine Petsch) is the Queen Bee with a withering wit and a secret longing; Toni Topaz (Vanessa Morgan) is an activist fighting for the Black students of recently integrated Riverdale High; Kevin Keller (Casey Cott) is a "square" crooner wrestling with his sexual identity; Reggie Mantle (Charles Melton) is a basketball star from farm country; and Fangs Fogarty (Drew Ray Tanner) is a greaser who's destined to be an Elvis-type star.
It isn't until Jughead is visited by Tabitha Tate (Erinn Westbrook) — Riverdale's Guardian Angel — that he learns the cosmic truth about their predicament. Will Jughead and the gang be able to return to the present? Or will our characters be trapped in the 1950's forever? And, if so…is that such a bad thing? Now, here's a look at the preview images for S07E01 "Chapter One Hundred Eighteen: Don't Worry Darling":
