And then the show doesn’t take the bait and send Kevin on a bodybuilding plot and instead sends him to the ultimate cure for all that ails ya in 50s Riverdale: Basketball. Keller found Kevin’s bodybuilder mag and was like, “what’s this?” and Kevin’s like, Uh, well it’s DEFINITELY not my wank mag if that’s what you’re asking.
