Pete and Alberta’s Connection Could Fix One Season 4 Issue
WhileGhostsseason 5 must explain Sass’s deathand give Jay a chance to retrieve his soul, the show also needs to prioritize Pete and Alberta’s relationship. Alberta’s “soft-girl era” can allow the show to illustrate her sweeter side after years of sass and dramatics, while Pete’s new relationship can solve a recent issue with his character.
While Pete’s power results in some fun storylines, it also means he receives less shared screen time with the other ghosts than he used to.
Ever since Pete discovered he could temporarily leave the grounds of the Woodstone Mansion inGhostsseason 3, he has often been absent on trips all over the world. While Pete’s power results in some fun storylines, it also means he receives less shared screen time with the other ghosts than he used to. As such,Ghostsseason 5’s Pete and Alberta romance could bring him back into the fold without ruining his new power.
