The episode takes place during a time when the parents of Riverdale's main characters were teenagers themselves, and the audience is given a glimpse into the events that would shape their lives and ultimately lead them to become the people they are today.

The episode kicks off with Betty's mother, Alice, revealing that she has been keeping a secret about the past from her daughter, prompting Betty to dig deep into her mother's history. Alice, who was a student at Riverdale High School in the 80s, finally tells Betty about a secret club that she and several other students formed called "The Midnight Club."

They become closer as they spend more time together, each one using the club as a way to escape their own personal problems. However, things take a dark turn when they start playing a game called "Gryphons and Gargoyles," which quickly becomes an obsession for the group.

As Betty continues to investigate, she learns more about the game and its impact on the Midnight Club. She discovers that the game is more than just a simple board game, and that it has a very dark side to it. The group becomes increasingly consumed by the game, and their obsession leads to the appearance of a mysterious and dangerous creature known as the "Gargoyle King."
