S01E03: Harborside's Employee Betrayal

Even though Harborside Health Center is the largest and most successful Medical Cannabis dispensary on the planet, it's still truly a family business. So when Steve DeAngelo leaves his Oakland dispensary for a much-needed two-week vacation, he entrusts day to day operations to the general manager -- his younger brother Andrew. But as soon as Steve's plane lifts off, Andrew discovers an evil voodoo mask, slipping Yelp reviews, and complaints about Harborside's "medicine". Andrew tries everything in his power to right the ship before his brother's return - but within hours of Steve's arrival, Andrew learns of a personal betrayal within Harborside's ranks, that will truly break his brother's heart.

Overview

Weed Wars is an American reality-documentary television series that documents the world's largest medical marijuana dispensary, Harborside Health Center, in Oakland, California. The series premiered on the Discovery Channel on December 1, 2011. The series has since been cancelled.

In regards to their intentions by allowing their business to be documented for television, Steve DeAngelo has said, "We wanted to be a model to other dispensaries, most of [which] have a media phobia. We wanted to tell our story and we gave Discovery complete access so that people could make up their own minds... There are a lot of stereotypes about who comes to these dispensaries, but viewers will see our customers cover a huge cross-section of the population – age, race and economic classes. They will also see how Harborside treats cannabis as a medicine, and we have a high standard of medical care."
