Spoiler alert for 'Riverdale' Season 4 Episode 16 'Chapter Seventy-Three: The Locked Room'

This episode of 'Riverdale' had fans breathing a sigh of relief when everything about the faking of Jughead's death was revealed. The 'Bughead' ship has become a fan favorite with their impressive detective skills against head "stone" Donna Sweett (Sarah Desjardins). While the case blew wide open with enough revelations of secrets, Betty Cooper (Lili Reinhart) seems to have taken the cake as the show's best character. 

Taking down her serial killer father, getting her mother out of the 'farmie' clutches and now bringing Jughead and her integrity to justice, Betty has definitely proven herself to be the "ultimate wild card". While we knew that her boyfriend Jughead Jones (Cole Sprouse) is an intelligent chap himself, but him faking his death called for Betty to pull the reigns for a bit and we were not disappointed. "Betty Cooper aka best Riverdale character #Riverdale," tweeted one fan.  Another fan tweeted, "Betty Cooper. That’s it that’s the tweet #Riverdale."

Fans continued to pour out their admiration and support for Betty Cooper as she manages to unveil a series of secrets while making sure her boyfriend and friends were safe from criminal clutches. "Betty Cooper is that bitch! #Riverdale" tweeted a fan. It's safe to say that Season 4 is a Cooper extravaganza, with one fan tweeting, "yo betty really the bhaddest b**** out here this season #Riverdale".

Fans were also 100% behind the 'Bughead' narrative, with one tweeting, "Tonight’s episode of #Riverdale was fantastic! Jughead and Betty at their peak Bughead! The writers are really going to have to come up with some BS in order to break them up because really I could see them eloping as soon as they graduate high school."

We're not over their #endgame goals, and neither are fans, "betty saved jughead's life. she literally wouldn't give up. im sobbing. #riverdale #bughead," tweeted an emotional fan.

'Riverdale' airs on Wednesdays at 8 pm EST on The CW.
