Betty and Veronica
Betty Cooper; Veronica Lodge; Jughead Jones; Mr. Weatherbee; Miss Grundy
Mr. Weatherbee gives Veronica a filing job. She then passes it off on to Betty, so it will keep Betty away from Archie. When Betty asks for Archie's help with the job, and gets it, it drives Veronica crazy knowing the two of them will be spending time together, alone. Veronica talks Mr. Weatherbee into giving her the filing job back, but Betty still has Archie because now Veronica has to do the filing by herself. Frustrated, Veronica ends up sitting on the floor shredding files with her teeth and hands.
