What Happens to Pete in 1923 Season 2 Episode 5?

Many are curious to know whether Pete Plenty Clouds, portrayed by Jeremy Gauna, survived or died in 1923 Season 2 Episode 5.

Titled “Only Gunshots to Guide Us,” the episode focused on Pete Plenty Clouds, Teonna, and Runs His Horse. They were headed to the north through Wild Texas. However, Pete separates himself and surprisingly bumps into Marshal Kent and Father Renaud. Viewers are wondering what happened after that. Did Pete face a brutal fate in Episode 5’s conclusion? Here are the details.

Does Pete die in 1923 Season 2 Episode 5?

The sound of gunshots could be heard in the final scene, which teased a potential end of Pete’s story in 1923 Season 2. However, it remains unclear whether he is alive or dead.

In the episode, as the group was moving through Wild Texas to the north, Pete stopped and decided to separate. He wanted to relax a bit and find water. However, he wasn’t aware that he could meet potential danger in his lone journey. As he moved forward, he finally found a watering hole to quench his thirst. Unaware of falling into danger, he unexpectedly bumped into Marshal Kent and Father Renaud, risking his life.

The duo gave him an intense chase. The episode hinted that the chase likely didn’t end well as gunshots were heard, teasing someone met a brutal fate. Mostly, fans assume that Pete might have been killed, but there is no confirmation yet. There is also a possibility of the scenario reversing. Pete could have shot Marshal and Father Renaud. In any given scenario, Teonna’s character arc would be impacted significantly.

If the duo dies, she would likely be happy about the men who tormented her being killed. However, she wouldn’t get the opportunity to settle her scores with them. If Pete dies, it will potentially give her a chance to seek revenge on the duo and bring them to their knees.
