Riverdale Season 3: 7 Major Questions That Must Be Answered Before The Finale

WTF is the Gargoyle King?

You don't have to be a die-hard fan to know that Riverdale loves to keep people guessing. The CW's hit teen thriller has a reputation for confusing people with its over-the-top plots and off-the-wall characters, and its latest installment is only further proof of that.

The writers have spent the majority of the show's third season crafting a new mystery - one that involves a deadly board game that seems to bring death to those who play it and an unnerving cult that is quietly brainwashing half of the town. While all that sounds incredibly enticing and, well, strange (even for Riverdale), the only problem is that it's still being crafted - with each new development leaving us more confused than the previous ones.

Thus, with only a few episodes left before the finale, there are still a number of questions that the writers have yet to answer (which they probably should have by now). While some will undoubtedly be addressed in some form or another before the season's conclusion, one or two of them risk getting overlooked in all the madness.

7. Did Kevin And Fangs Actually Married?

This year's musical episode certainly brought with it a number of bizarre moments. However, there was one particular scene that caught a number of viewers off-guard, and that was the strange encounter between Kevin Keller, Fangs Fogarty and, well, The Farm.

Though it's hard to deny that the way the pair looked at each other was sweet, the whole thing was still an unnerving sight. Both Kevin and Fangs were dressed in white as they passionately sang to each other (and even kissed) in a ceremony that was conducted by Evelyn Evernever. What's even more strange is that members of The Farm surrounded them, also dressed in white (and 3-D glasses?) as they watched the union before them.

The idea of a Kevin/Fangs relationship was briefly alluded to back in Season 2, but as they have barely interacted since, and the latter ended up in a relationship with Mitch Klump, it was quickly forgotten about. Thus, the apparent progression of their relationship certainly shocked viewers and, it left us all wondering if The Farm used its own twisted rituals to actually marry the pair (it sure looked like a wedding), or was this merely an initiation ceremony to induct Fangs into The Farm? On that note, is Fangs even in The Farm?

In typical Riverdale fashion, all mentions to the ceremony were quickly dropped because it was no longer essential to the narrative and, unfortunately, it's left us all very confused.
