Riverdale's first season ended with a masked robber shooting Archie's father Fred Andrews at Pop's Chock'lit Shoppe. Earlier in September, a synopsis for the Season 2 premiere revealed that it would pick up right where the first left off, with Fred's life hanging in the balance. Now, a new promo for the show offers a glimpse of Fred's dire condition.

The video opens with a line from Cole Sprouse's Jughead: "Our story continues..." The promo then shows short clips of the gang, including a steamy shower scene between Veronica and Archie; someone with a gun at what appears to be a wedding; and Archie's friends rallying around him at the hospital. The clip also features Archie talking on the phone to his mother Mary (Molly Ringwald), telling her, "Mom, we're in trouble here."

Riverdale Season 2 will follow Archie on the hunt for revenge as he searches for the person responsible for shooting his father, which may not have been a random event. Season 2 will also spell trouble for Betty and Veronica's friendship and feature a character called the Sugar Man, who will factor into the continuing story of the Blossoms.
