Yeah, I definitely don't see them killing him in like...a few episodes or something because where would they go after that? I might not miss him personally but Walter's character is so much more interesting when he's around and I think losing him would, well, I don't know what it'd do to him but it wouldn't be pretty. I really don't want Peter to die so that Walter has to pay a price, more just...because it feels like, well, as you say there needs to be some kind of price. They spend so much time hammering home how serious it is; making us really understand the profound damage. Even though I want our team to be able to "find another way" the writers will have to walk a tightrope not to make that feel cheap after the buildup?

I think I could have been sold on Peter/Olivia during S2, but I honestly didn't really SEE any of it? Like I guess during Jacksonville I understood why Peter made a move then, and okay, Olivia had heightened and desperate emotions. But in general it sort of felt like a very default ship even then. Like, not that in inherently sucks, but just there was no work there - there was an assumption the actors would sell it with chemistry maybe? When frankly I think she has more with other characters (like Charlie, but he was married, then dead, then in an altverse). And yeah, now I feel they've gone to straight to angst. Which could be interesting if that's the point I guess? But I'm not sure it is. I guess we'll see?

I wasn't actually talking about the promo though, I was talking about the sneak peek which is here:

It's only a 30 second scene though obviously contains spoilers though honestly, nothing epically plot revealing, if you ask me?

It really confuses me when people say Peter is their favourite, not like, in some specific cases - I have a flister who likes him and that makes sense to me because I know her personally, and even she thinks he's massively underused and a lot of her enjoyment is the fact she likes the actor? But it honestly surprises me how much of a fandom favourite he seems to be? Because, yeah, he's a pretty nondescript in many ways.
