Peter was a Builder. His name was written on the Wall of the Glade.
Film[]
The Maze Runner[]
Peter's name on the Wall was not crossed out at the time of Thomas' arrival in the Glade, indicating he was alive at the time. Peter was good friends with Jack and talked to him several times throughout the film. He was first seen when Thomas arrived in the Box. Peter laughed at him with the other Gladers after he tripped while trying to run away. He, alongside Zart, put Thomas inside the Pit so he could calm down a little. Later, Peter was seen working around the Glade, and then partying with the other Gladers during the Bonfire. Peter, alongside two unnamed Gladers, were seen drumming. When Gally challenged Thomas to fight, Gally pushed Thomas into Peter, Zart, and another Glader, to which they all pushed him back to Gally.
Peter attended the meeting, to which he witnessed Teresa wake up from the Box. When Teresa threw rocks at the Gladers, Peter took cover from her with a pot lid. The next night, when the other doors opened, Peter, alongside John and some other Gladers, went over to check one. Eventually, they saw the Grievers and started running away, yelling at the other Gladers to run. During the Griever attack on the Glade, Peter hid in the council hall. When Thomas's group arrived in the hut, he signaled them to hurry up. After they entered, Peter, alongside Unnamed Glader 10, locked the doors. When the Griever collapsed the Council Hall roof, Peter escaped the rubble with the help of Jeff and other Gladers. He then witnessed the death of Alby.
After Thomas stung himself, Peter ran up to his unconscious body in concern. When Thomas and his friends decided to leave the Maze, Peter did not want to leave the Glade at first, but Jack was able to convince him to leave, while Gally chose to stay with his own group of Gladers. Once they reached the end of the Maze, Peter participated in the final battle against the Grievers. During the battle, Peter ran at a Griever with a spear, but the Griever grabbed it and pulled him towards it. It grabbed him and threw him off into the void, killing him.
