Peter was arrested with Elizabeth. He found Lud Jaruzki in his garden, took the boy in, and Elizabeth provided care. Peter is in a wheelchair, which became his saving grace: the Nazis imprisoned him for a week but didn't know what to do with a prisoner in a wheelchair, so they soon let him go. He loves brandy and is happy to talk to Juliet about being arrested.
