Season 1
Principal Weatherbee began the school day by announcing their plans to continue moving forward with the pep-rally, despite recent events. As Sheriff Keller spoke on the status of Jason Blossom's death, Weatherbee briefly noticed Archie Andrews lurking outside his office. Later that day, he approached Archie, requesting that they speak for a moment. He first acknowledged Archie's satisfactory position within the school, such as Varsity football and AP music tutorials. He quickly moved on to the real reason he requested Archie's presence, the look they shared earlier that day, he wondered why Archie wouldn't meet his eyes, suggesting that he may be hiding something about Jason. That night, during the pep-rally, he hands the mic over to Mayor McCoy. The next day, he and Sheriff Keller arrest Cheryl Blossom during class due to something that was revealed during Jason's autopsy.

Principal Weatherbee and Sheriff Keller escorted Cheryl to his office for question in the murder of her own brother, Jason Blossom. Cheryl claimed that she didn't kill Jason, however, she admitted to lying about what took place on the 4th of July. The truth is that they went out there to fake Jason's death. They made it to the other side of Sweetwater River, in Greendale, and they parted ways, but she recalled hearing a gun shot just before. The following day, Archie came forth, admitting that he was at the river on the 4th of July, and that he heard a gunshot. Weatherbee watched quietly as Sheriff Keller did the interrogating. The only thing useful they learned from Archie was that Cheryl's claim of gun fire is true.

Jughead Jones was taken into custody upon the discovery made by Sheriff Keller, which were that his fingerprints were on file for a previous incident. After entering The Blue and Gold in search for Jughead, Weatherbee and Keller found his murder board, which only made matters worse.
