Everything we know about Archie's cellmate, Mad Dog, on 'Riverdale'
Archie's time at the Leopold and Loeb Juvenile Center isn't going to be easy.
Early on "Riverdale's" second episode this season, Archie meets his cellmate, Mad Dog (played by Eli Goree). Mad Dog has posters on the wall, a collection of books on a desk, a record player, and even a pull-up bar in his cell. When Archie tries to introduce himself to Mad Dog, he merely looks over at him and doesn't respond. His only words to Archie are a warning about keeping his nice shoes laced tight.
But as soon as Mad Dog is introduced, he mysteriously disappears, creating another mystery to solve.

Here's what we know about Mad Dog so far.
Initially quiet when he first meets Archie, Mad Dog later opens up when Archie asks him to play in the football game with them.
Mad Dog tells him he can't because the warden says he "has other business." When Archie presses him on what he's doing, he starts talking about his family.
"Before this place, I had a mom, a little brother, girl too, Liz," he says. "They used to come visit me every Saturday. One day the warden tells me I can't see them anymore. They've been banned. 'It's for my own good,' he said. That was two years ago."

He reveals that he is supposed to be transferred to a real prison the following month to spend 20 years serving time.
But he doesn't go into any other details about what he is in juvie for.
"Riverdale" airs Wednesdays at 8 p.m. ET on The CW.
