Synopsis
The shadow belongs to an old hermit that warns Jughead and Betty of the leaf monster. As Archie and Veronica are having some private time, Archie sees the Leaf Monster out the window. As he and Veronica give chase, the sheriff shows up and warns the teens about the crazy monsters that have shown up since the school's opening. The hermit disappears, and the gang develops some odd, new phrases like "Jinkies!" and "Zoinks!". Even Hot Dog starts to talk, saying phrases like "RUH-ROH!"

Synopsis
Jughead tries a new restaurant in town run by Darlene, a witch in disguise. She gives him his heart's desire -- a huge junk food meal -- in exchange for his metabolism. Over the next month, Jughead eats like normal, but grows very large. The gang tries to trade Darlene other virtues to get Jughead's metabolism back -- Archie's pure heart, Veronica's status, Betty's compassion -- but Darlene swindles them all. Jughead eventually confides in Sabrina, and the two hatch a plan to get the gang's virtues back.
