Ep 27. The Day the Earth Moved

The Day the Earth Moved is the 27th episode of the first season of Archies Weird Mysteries. In this episode, the small town of Riverdale is hit by a series of earthquakes, leading the residents to seek shelter and question the cause of the natural disasters. Archie and his friends investigate the earthquakes and discover that they are caused by a giant worm that has been living underground for years. The worm is awakened due to the town's recent construction work, causing it to wreak havoc on the town's infrastructure.

The question on everyone's mind is how to stop the worm, and Archie and his friends come up with a plan to trap it. They gather all the hot peppers in town, which they know the worm is afraid of, and use them to create a trap. With the help of Reggie's construction skills, the group manages to lure the worm into a trap and sends it back underground.

However, the earthquakes continue to shake the town, and the gang realizes that there may be another problem; a sinkhole has opened up nearby. The group rushes to investigate the sinkhole only to find that it leads to an underground laboratory run by Mr. Weatherbee's late uncle, who was conducting experiments on unstable materials. The group concludes that the experiments caused the earthquakes and the sinkhole, and they manage to shut down the lab before any more damage can be done.

Throughout the episode, the gang faces various challenges, including convincing the skeptical mayor about the existence of the worm, dealing with a power outage caused by the earthquakes, and navigating the dangerous terrain of the underground laboratory. However, they manage to overcome these obstacles and save their town from destruction.
