Notatki gracza

Devin Weston jest miliarderem, inwestorem i dyrektorem zarządzającym, mającym udziały w przedsiębiorstwach w całym San Andreas, w tym znaczący pakiet Merryweather Security. Wykorzystuje żołnierzy Merryweather do ochrony swoich interesów i ma wpływy w FIB za pośrednictwem Steve'a Hainesa. Michael De Santa i Trevor Philips widzą go po raz pierwszy po spotkaniu z Hainesem podczas By the Book, gdy Haines zezwala na torturowanie Ferdinanda Kerimova. Weston zawarł układ z Hainesem, lecz jeszcze nie prowadzi interesów bezpośrednio z nimi.

Gdy Michael, Trevor i Franklin Clinton rabują dla Hainesa i Westona opancerzoną furgonetkę w Blitz Play, Weston przedstawia się i składa im osobne propozycje. Proponuje Michaelowi pracę przy filmie producenta Solomona Richardsa, aby podnieść wartość Richards Majestic Productions. Zatrudnia Trevora i Franklina do zdobycia pięciu rzadkich luksusowych samochodów, które zamierza sprzedać chińskim urzędnikom. Lamar Davis pomaga Franklinowi i Trevorowi zdobywać pojazdy w I Fought the Law, Eye in the Sky, Deep Inside, Minor Turbulence i Pack Man.

Kiedy Trevor i Franklin dostarczają samochody, Weston odmawia wypłaty obiecanych pieniędzy. Oświadcza, że zainwestuje ich środki we własną firmę. Równocześnie występuje przeciw pracy Michaela z Solomonem. Weston chce uniemożliwić studiu ukończenie Meltdown, aby otrzymać odszkodowanie, i poleca swojej prawniczce Molly Schultz zabrać kopię filmu oraz ukryć ją, dopóki nie nakaże jej zniszczenia.

Michael odkrywa plan w Legal Trouble i ściga Molly do Los Santos International Airport. Molly wpada w panikę podczas ucieczki i ginie wciągnięta przez turbinę samolotu, wciąż mając przy sobie kopię filmu. Weston obwinia Michaela o jej śmierć. Na premierze Meltdown mówi Michaelowi, że Merryweather rusza po Amandę i Tracey De Santa. Michael i Jimmy De Santa pędzą do domu De Santów i pomagają rodzinie odeprzeć napastników.

Po nieudanym ataku Weston zwraca się do Franklina i rozkazuje mu zabić Michaela. Franklin odpowiada, że Haines kazał mu zabić Trevora. Wybór decyduje o losie Westona. Jeśli Franklin w Something Sensible wykonuje polecenie Hainesa, razem z Michaelem zabija Trevora. Franklin informuje Hainesa, że oszczędził Michaela, a Haines mówi, że zajmie się Westonem, ponieważ Merryweather straciło licencję stanową. Jeśli Franklin w The Time's Come spełnia żądanie Westona, ściga i zabija Michaela.

Po śmierci Michaela Franklin dzwoni do Westona i prosi go o powstrzymanie odwetu Hainesa za pozostawienie Trevora przy życiu. Weston odpowiada, że już skontaktował się z przełożonymi Hainesa. Gdy Franklin pyta o kolejne zlecenia, Weston mówi, że zabójstwo było jego ostatnią pracą, i go odprawia. W The Third Way Franklin łączy siły z Michaelem i Trevorem. Lester Crest zwabia współpracowników Hainesa z FIB oraz oddział Merryweather do odlewni, gdzie cała trójka niszczy siły chroniące Hainesa i Westona.

Gdy Michael, Franklin i Trevor rozprawiają się z Hainesem, Wei Chengiem i Stretchem, Trevor atakuje posiadłość Westona w Tongva Hills. Weston próbuje ukryć się w skrzyni, lecz Trevor go znajduje, ogłusza i umieszcza w bagażniku jego własnego samochodu. Trevor jedzie na klif w Blaine County, gdzie dołączają Michael i Franklin. Cała trójka spycha auto w przepaść. Samochód obija się o skały, wpada do płytkiej wody i eksploduje, zabijając Westona.

Ciekawostki

◆Weston's favorite radio station is Los Santos Rock Radio, as seen when the player enters his Tornado in The Third Way. It could also imply that WorldWide FM is his favorite too, as it can be heard in his mansion at night.
◆Weston has holdings in Richards Majestic Productions, the country of Greece, the Los Santos Corkers Baseball Team, Merryweather Security, the Die Already 4 movie franchise, Banner Hotel & Spa, Dynasty 8 Real Estate, Vanilla Unicorn, Universal Uniform, Toe Shoes, Al Dente's, Bourgeoix Cognac, Nogo Vodka, Patriot Beer, Debonaire Cigarettes, Orang-O-Tang, Mollis, Good Aids, San Andreas Lotto, Pharte Gas, Lando-Corp, Los Santos Department of Nuclear Power, Pump & Run Gymnasium, Lobon Sportswear, Save-A-Cent, Skiver Construction Corporation and Squeeze One Out.
◆He has his own website: www.bedevinweston.com.
◆When exporting a car to a specialist dealer during the Vehicle Cargo mission in GTA Online, the vehicle might be sent to Weston's mansion.
◆According to his website, he has a net worth of $12 billion and a 9 inch long penis. Given his boastful nature, either one or both of these claims might be an exaggeration.
◆Devin Weston is possibly based on the American business magnate Howard Hughes. They were both billionaire businessmen with their hands in Hollywood, investments and were airplane enthusiasts.
◆Weston has a lot in common with Avon Hertz.
◆They are both American billionaires who have very high opinions of themselves, as well as a tendency to think of others as inferior or distasteful.
◆In the mission I Fought the Law..., Weston mocks Franklin Clinton at their first meeting because of the latter's background and appearance, stating that "I'm rich enough to do whatever the fuck I want, and you're poor enough not to ask me any goddamn stupid questions".
◆Hertz dislikes the poor and claims to care only about the interests of the rich. During the mission Setup: Salvage Hard Drives, he tells Lester about his "vision" for the future. Foreseeing a world where armored vehicles, like the RCV, will be "everywhere" once the white collar jobs dry up and the situation starts looking grim for humane society. Private security will represent the new "law and order" as it serves to protect the interests of the "privileged" few. Lester counters by claiming that he is supportive of the idea of basic income. Hertz responds by laughing it off and saying "That'll at least keep the peasants happy."
◆They both have power/control over formidable, well-equipped private armies.
◆Weston has Merryweather Security. Although he is not in charge of the PMC, Weston controls a significant portion of Merryweather's stock, making him a major shareholder and partial owner.
◆Hertz has the Cliffford Mercenaries. He is also allied with Merryweather.
◆They are both affiliated with the United States Government in some way.
◆Weston is "friends" with FIB agent Steve Haines, the secondary antagonist of GTA V. Haines says Weston is a good friend of his in the mission By the Book. However, when Weston visits Franklin at his house, he refers to Haines as a "clown" he would not employ in shopping malls owned by him and explains how easy it would be to end his career, suggesting what Weston truly thinks of Haines. In Ending B, Franklin kills Michael De Santa on Weston's behalf, but incurs the wrath of Haines for not killing Trevor Philips. Franklin calls Weston to inform him of this and Weston tells Franklin that he has already contacted Haines' superiors and ensured that Haines would back down before telling Franklin that he is of no further use.
◆Hertz associates himself with the IAA until he betrays them at the end of the mission The Bogdan Problem.
◆They both display highly sociopathic tendencies.
◆In the mission Meltdown, Weston seeks revenge against Michael De Santa, and dispatches Merryweather in a home invasion of Michael's house to kill his family. By doing so, Weston clearly violates and disregards the laws and norms of society by employing ruthless mercenaries to trespass on private property and commit murder against unarmed civilians.
◆In the mission The Doomsday Scenario, Hertz, Cliffford, and their private army take over an abandoned nuclear missile base inside Mount Chiliad that had been operational at the height of the Cold War. Hertz then has Cliffford hack into the base's missile system so that he can start a nuclear war and kill virtually all human life on Earth with the ultimate goal of remaking the planet in his image.
◆They are both cowards and they both die in explosions.
◆In Grand Theft Auto V s canon ending, Weston is confronted at his home by Trevor Philips. Immediately after the shooting starts, he hides in a trunk by the swimming pool and orders his Merryweather bodyguards to fight off Trevor. After Trevor kills the entourage, he locates Weston and forces him into the trunk of a car before driving it to the edge of a cliff in Blaine County. There, Trevor, Michael, and Franklin reconvene before proceeding to gloat to Weston about their victory and his defeat. The three protagonists finally push the car over the cliff and it crashes repeatedly into several rocks along the way until finally exploding after hitting the shallow waters below.
◆When the confronts him, Hertz tries to flee in a Thruster. He manages to escape from Mount Chiliad, but is pursued and, in desperation, throws the last of his men at the protagonist in Akulas and Buzzard Attack Choppers, before he is incinerated by a homing missile.
