Riverdale Season 6, Episode 9 promo: Old friends turned foes?
The promo for the show's upcoming episode indicates that some old friends are coming back to haunt as new foes. After the major antagonist of the series, Hiram Lodge (played by Mark Consuelos), exited the show permanently in the previous season, the new season brought in someone new to fill the gap.
Percival Pickens (Chris O'Shea), a mysterious newcomer, is the person behind the supernatural occurrences in the town now. Despite his motives still not entirely clear, he seems to be a formidable threat to the group. The promo depicts how an angry Jughead wants Percival Pickens to leave town.
The official synopsis for the upcoming episode, as released by the CW, reads:
"After suspecting that Percival is about to make a big play, Archie, Betty and Jughead warn their friends about his potential threat to the town; Toni finds herself a target after Percival announces his plans to rid the town of gangs."
As the title suggests, Toni Topaz (Vanessa Morgan) will be the real focal point in this episode as the leader of the Serpent gang. In the promo, she appears to be in a battle with the rival gang of Ghoulies. Meanwhile, Percival plans to eliminate all the gangs in the town, which will make Toni an obvious target for the mysterious newcomer.
Antonia Negret served as the director for this episode with a script from Danielle Iman.
