Season 3

Weiss-Torrio — Weiss attending a meeting with Johnny Torrio.

Hymie Weiss accompanies Dean O'Banion to Nelson Van Alden to demonstrate him how to distill whiskey in his apartment. Weiss reminds Nelson that this could be a "nice little sidelined" to earn some cash, but O'Banion instead reminds him that he doesn't belong to that group since he is in fact working of a debt for getting rid of Emmett Coughlin's body.

The following day, Weiss and O’Banion together with Van Alden go to meet with Al Capone and Torrio to discuss their deceased employee Joe Miller that Capone viciously beat to death at a speakeasy after he insulted Jake Guzik.
