Riverdale: 10 Burning Questions That Must Be Answered In Season 2
3. Who Ordered The Shooting Of Archie's Dad?
This is the most important question regarding Hiram, because it's certain that Fred Andrews was in his way. Not only did Archie's dad kiss his wife, but he also refused to sell his share in their company. Hiram is the obvious suspect, but clearly not the only one.
This might be the doing of the Serpents or the Coopers as well. Maybe the mayor has a bigger plan in which Andrews would undoubtedly interfere? It makes a lot of sense for Hiram Lodge to be the one that ordered the kill, but Riverdale is a dark place full of surprises and it would be too obvious if this question could be answered so easily.
One thing is certain: the shooting wasn't an accident.
