Friend: That pretty curly haired guy and the blonde girl you always scream about…are they a thing yet? 

You know, Pop Tate definitely has a picture of every single teen in town on the walls of his diner to commemorate what good kids he believes they all are (even chuck. even dilton!!). This season he will meet and put up pictures of the southside teens – Sweet Pea will get pride of place near the jukebox, right by Archie’s picture, which Archie will think is weird. next season Pop will meet some ghost kids from greendale and be extremely sad that he cannot seem to capture them on camera. Jason Blossom is still pinned above the cash register because Pop never takes a picture down. all the adults’ pictures are in the little hallway leading to the bathroom. A 16-year-old FP is preening. A 16-year-old Alice is blocking out the camera (22-year-old Alice ripped the picture down, but then stuck it back up again in perhaps the first moment of genuine shame she ever experienced in her entire life).

Somewhere amongst the pictures is one of a younger Pop on the day the diner opened, he’s standing outside the diner holding two thumbs up with the biggest smile on his face.
