Physical Appearance

Pete is an African-American human man.

He is seen in a black prom tuxedo, white button-down dress shirt, teal button-down vest, black dress pants, black dress shoes, and a teal flower corsage pin on his tuxedo lapel.

For his yearbook photo, he wore a white button-down dress shirt.

It is unknown what he wears as his everyday attire.

Personality

During the time period of Escape from L.A., Pete appeared to be a nice, friendly teenage boy. He claimed he liked to repeat everything, hence his nickname.

In A Quick One, While He's Away, he helps Hollyhock cope with her anxiety at a party through grounding techniques his therapist taught him.

As an adult, he has also dropped the high-school nickname, going by Peter.

Background

Season 2

Pete is a friend of Penny Carson's and Maddy Ginsberg's prom date.

He says he got the nickname "Pete Repeat" because he always says things twice, although in actuality he rarely does this.

Maddy is taken to the hospital, after Pete expresses his concern, that she might have alcohol poisoning.

BoJack convinces Pete, to lie about where Maddy got the alcohol from, and say he doesn't know. Pete reluctantly goes along with this, saying he will claim not to know where Maddy got the alcohol from.

Season 6

Peter appears at the New York party in A Quick One, While He's Away, and helps Hollyhock overcome her anxiety attack. Hollyhock thanks him and Peter offers to go outside on the fire escape. After going outside, Hollyhock gags and chokes, after taking a drink from a beer. Peter then says that it's okay and he himself hasn't drank himself "at all through college," stating "I had some shit go down in high school," referring to the prom night in his first appearance.

Going more into detail, Peter states that there was "a man" who lived with his girlfriend's friend, Penny Carson. He then said that during prom night, "This man bought us bourbon and practically forced us to drink it, and then when my girlfriend got alcohol poisoning, he just ditched us at the ER." Hollyhock then asks about his girlfriend to which Pete replies, that she was fine afterwards, and had to get her "stomach pumped." Pete ends the story by saying "But things are good now...," and "...at some point, I realized it wasn't the alcohol's fault, or Maddy's fault, or my fault, it was just some shitty dude..." showing that he blames BoJack for the whole situation.

Pete then reveals that this "man" was "...actually kind of famous." Hollyhock then asks who he is, after pausing a few seconds and Hollyhock repeating herself, the episode ends with Pete opening his mouth to reply.

Relationships

Maddy Ginsberg (girlfriend)
