~ Sean I think we're both in agreement about most, if not all of it but we're merely wording it differently...lol.

Personally, I see a big difference between a lack of control and consciously shifting. I think he was doing all of his shifting willingly.

In the S1 finale: He couldn't speak in full form so he controlled the shift enough to allow him to talk. It looked weird but I didn't think he was losing the "tug-of-war" with his inner animal at that moment.

I concede that once he was set on fire he very well could have succumbed to the animal and lost all control, making him unable to shift back. We just don't know IF he gave in completely.

It all comes down to our own opinion & interpretation. I just happen to believe he maintained control but certainly see where he might not have once he was set on fire during that battle. Thank you! I was beginning to think that everyone thought Peter was lacking in all control. Which, considering everything he accomplished while supposedly "out of control" doesn't really make sense.

Do you people think Full moon-crazed Boyd/Cora could have achieved anything even close to what Peter did in S1? THAT was out of control. THAT was giving in fully to the beast. That......was completely lacking in any sense of reason, or foresight. Peter was an entirely different animal, and it never occurred to me for a second to say he wasn't in control. Peter even claimed that he wasn't, to Derek, to justify killing Laura. Scott proved he was lying. HE WAS IN CONTROL. He's just a manipulative, rage-filled, egocentric dick. God. It's not that hard to grasp.

Also, for the record: I love your "valve" analogy to bits, Jester.
