Before you know it, Archie is offering his pure heart to get Juggy's metabolism back, and Betty and Veronica make offers of their own to get the old Archie back! Meanwhile, Jughead's waistline is growing larger than Lodge Mansion! Needless to say, the kids are plenty disenchanted with being enchanted. Can they go from status woe to status quo?
