Discussion I feel like Peter teaming up with Kate was completely out of character for him.

Exactly. It doesn't matter if it would be beneficial to him at that moment, she still killed his entire family, and if there's one thing Peter is, it's spiteful.

u/k4kkul4pio 3d ago
Yeah, his entire plan that season made no sense whatsoever as it had more holes in it than swiss cheese.

I think havingv a particular link between those 2 since Peter is thhe one that turns her could have been interesting but, yes I didn't like how it was done

Like a sire bond in vp where she’s is obligated to follow his orders no matter what

u/Puzzled-Emu-6845 1d ago
Damn they really missed out on this. He could bring so much agony to her. He could tell her to torture herself. He could use his nails to make her see how kind and loving his family was and then show the night when she burnt his family alive

yea i’m rewatching (wife’s first watch) and we both couldn’t stand this. there is nothing aside from pure evilness that would serve as any justification for peter to team up with kate…. and even that is a flimsy justification at best considering she burned his whole family alive which left him trapped conscious in a coma for six years.

Peter didn’t have any character. Season one he acts like he is on a righteous revenge mission, but Scott proves it was just a power trip. That is all he is ever on until Scott beats it out of him in Mexico.

u/Peter_Hale_ 2d ago
and what exactly was the proving point that Peter had just power trip?

u/biggestmike420 2d ago
The spiral on the deer was weeks before he murdered his niece to become the Alpha. Peter knew exactly what he was doing, and lied about the whole thing.

u/GregMedve Team Peter 3d ago
With the intent of double cross her and get his revenge, he probably would. Still it was horribly written the way it was, best to ignore the whole thing. As far as I’m concerned that plot point doesn’t exist.

S1 Peter killed his niece when Kate wasn’t even in the picture yet, and people act like he won’t do anything for power…

u/bannedbookreader Team Peter 3d ago
He was also arguably feral, backed up by what we know of the Meredith flashes

u/Marrecarandgi 3d ago
He wasn’t feral during s1 and s2, quite calculating and manipulative, actually. And yet he reputedly hurt his nephew for power too…
2
u/bannedbookreader Team Peter 2d ago
Never said he wasn’t manipulative but biting Scott and killing Laura aren’t rational decisions by any means.

u/CirceHellene 3d ago
Honestly, their dynamic made me wonder about the possibility of their having been romantically involved somehow before the fire as well: Peter’s comment to Kate on seeing Allison the first time, “she’s beautiful … she looks like you, Kate,” seemed suggestive, at least, and the conversation in the vault at the beginning if season 3 had a similar flavor. I realize part of that is just the actor making flirting with _every_one/thing his entire personality, buuuuut … 🧐

u/sweetmissjaye 3d ago
Yeah, I agree. As much as he hated her for the fire, there's no way he'd ever team up with her. This was a low point for the show

u/Ok-Comedian-990 3d ago
Man just look at this picture. The aura is insane!! Love the actress who played kate, she’s so bossy

u/scottymac87 2d ago
Yes, a lot of characters did things out of character for them because the writer was only concerned with advancing their wonky plot and used characters as plot devices. Don’t overthink Teen Wolf’s plot or lack of character development too much.

u/Ok-Buddy3424 3d ago
I continue to pretend that this moment didn't exist, just as I ignore the series' non-cohesive timeline for the sake of my sanity. (Or what's left of it)

It really was. Like, yeah, he would do a lot for power, I can admit that. That's part of what makes him such a good character, and he's my second favorite for a reason. But he would never work with the person who killed his family and burned him very badly, even if he intended to double cross her later on.
And okay, I don't like Kate coming back as a werejaguar. The werejaguar lore was interesting, but Kate should have stayed dead. In saying that, I could have been okay with the werejaguar Kate storyline... but then it turns out Peter was working with her to kill Scott.
Just ugh. If the writers really wanted to bring back Kate as a supernatural creature (whether a werejaguar, a regular werewolf, or something else), then there were so many ways they could go about it. If they really wanted the Peter connection, then they could've done something like the sire bond from TVD. Or, and hear me out on this novel idea, they could've had Peter deal with the fact that his family's murderer was still alive. That he didn't kill her, he turned her. There could've been a really nice scene with Derek and Peter about how they both "turned" an Argent (even if Gerard didn't actually become a werewolf because of the mountain ash pills, and Peter didn't actually know he turned Kate).

u/NoGap4699 1d ago
i choose to believe he did it for power and to gain her trust so if he did manage to steal Scott's Alpha status he could backstab her and fully kill her once and for all.
Peter's not the forgiving type and nor would he forget his entire family being burned alive.

u/Dangerous-Royal-8601 19h ago
Everyone doesn't like this but I do. I think it shows just how much he wanted to destroy Scott and be an Alpha again. Look at him in season 3 when they nearly kill the darach and she crawls to the nematon, she tells him he could be an alpha again or something and he screams that he's always been the Alpha.
Bro has been throwing a tantrum for that since Derek killed him in season 1, considering how bad he became over time, I think it trumps he's hatred for Kate.

Not when he was an alpha but afterwards definitely, anything to get his power back
