Here's an interview that Vincent Kartheiser did with TVLine's Matt Webb Mitovich about the evolution of Pete as a character. In the interview, he compares the way Pete was when Mad Men started to the way he is as a character now. Kartheiser also briefly talks about what's coming up next for the character Pete. Here's an excerpt from the article, which gives some scoop on the end of season five:
TVLINE | Some worry that Pete conspicuously talks about owning a gun – and that it might even go off by the season finale.
Well, there you have it. [Chuckles] I mean, I can’t tell. I can’t say anything.
TVLINE | How would you typify the relationship Pete now has with Roger? “The student is now the master”?
I think the student is now the competitor. I still think there are things he could probably learn from Roger, but business has changed since Roger was out getting accounts. And maybe if Roger wasn’t so damned pretentious….
TVLINE | Is it a question of how long can these two guys co-exist under the same roof? Is something going to have to give?
I think something has to give. I think someone has to assert dominance and be the boss. Or someone has to be submissive to the other one. I think that is the truth.
TVLINE | I just hope Roger doesn’t roll over too easy. I’d like to see him try to make one last run at being the titan he once was.
Well, you still have a lot of episodes left in this season to find out.
