Season 4 Part I
Looking to resolve his guilt for helping cause the death of Andrew Schillinger, Beecher enlists a private investigator to find Hank and reunite him with his father Vern. After Hank is found, Tobias arranges for him to be paid to visit Vern as Hank will only see him if he gets enough money to buy more drugs. Vern is overjoyed to see Hank until he finds out that the visit was arranged by Beecher. Remembering what happened to Andrew, Vern thinks it is another plot by Beecher to turn his last son against him. To prevent this from happening, Vern plots to kidnap Beecher's two children, Gary and Holly. Vern pays Hank to kidnap the two, and then pays him more money to sever Gary's hand and ship it to Oz. To find his children, Beecher enlists FBI Agent Pierce Taylor to investigate the kidnapping; Taylor suspects Chris Keller instead of Vern Schillinger. Beecher is distraught when his son's hand is shipped to Oz and even more distraught after Hank kills Gary.
At the urging of Father Mukada, Vern learns that Beecher had no evil intent with Hank and calls off the kidnapping. As Hank releases Holly, the FBI arrests him on the spot. Vern is then concerned that Hank may give him up under interrogation but Hank is then freed on a legal technicality. Infuriated, Beecher goes to Italian inmate Chucky Pancamo and hires him to kill Hank. Hank is killed in Massachusetts by an Italian hitman and his body remains missing for more than six months. When the truth is learned about Hank's death, the Aryans and Italians go to war in Season 5.

Famous quotes containing the words part i, season and/or part:
“Is not the tremendous strength in men of the impulse to creative work in every field precisely due to their feeling of playing a relatively small part in the creation of living beings, which constantly impels them to an overcompensation in achievement?”
—Karen Horney (1885–1952)
“The art of medicine in the season lies:
Wine given in season oft will benefit,
Which out of season injures.”
—Ovid (Publius Ovidius Naso)
“In this nation I see tens of millions of its citizens, a substantial part of its whole population, who at this very moment are denied the greater part of what the very lowest standards of today call the necessities of life. I see one third of a nation ill-housed, ill-clad, ill-nourished. The test of our progress is not whether we add more to the abundance of those who have much, it is whether we provide enough for those who have too little.”
—Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)
