Season 6, episode 5. It explains the previous 4 episodes of the season and the designation of Jughead as narrator. These first 5 episodes of season 6 are part of a special event/parallel universe to make the Sabrina crossover make sense. You can skip these episodes without missing canon plot.

Queer people and drag queens are misrepresented. Kevin’s only trait is being the “soft gay guy” stereotype. The show is known for queerbaiting with scenes of Betty and Veronica kissing but no acknowledgement of their feelings for each other. They also do the same thing with Joaquin and Archie. An asexual character is straightwashed.
