I agree that Peter/Kate should have been held off for next season but I really had hoped Peter wasn't a villain any longer. Overall I liked the season although it seemed a little flat in general. Just a little flat. And on the topic of Peter being a villain, he's going to stay that way until Scott becomes a moral Consequentialist. Or until Ian's begging cracks through Jeff's evil shell. I think now that he's actually shown his hand, it might be too late to change him around now. Unless his little meeting with Valack somehow makes him see the light or something. I dunno...I had hoped he would end up being crazy uncle Peter, that rapscallions;a little morally ambiguous in an 'the ends justify the means' sort of way. Yep. A moral consequentialist. And hey, whatever happens, he'll still always be the "spark that lit their fires", you know?

Also, what the hell happened to him in the confrontation scene? He's NEVER shown that level of pleasure at hurting a member of his family. Smirking and smacking around his daughter? Absolutely OOC. (Am I the only one thinking the writer's were trying to make him look worse to make his complaints about Scott's werewolfitude/leadership seem less reasonable, more psychotic monster?)

I found that odd too. Except for the killing Laura part, he's seemed pretty family oriented, especially with Cora. And he was exceptionally desperate to know who his child was. And with as conceited and narcissistic as he is, him harming a part of himself seems. Off. I mean, she's an extension of him. Why would he hurt himself like that, and enjoy it? I agree, it seemed like that was all to try and make his sound reasoning appear unreasonable.
