Who Killed Peter In A Million Little Things

Okay, let's dive headfirst into the million-dollar question (pun intended!): Who really killed Peter Benoit in "A Million Little Things"? Buckle up, because it’s a twistier road than a plate of spaghetti!
The Obvious Suspects
First off, let’s round up the usual suspects. We've got the characters who practically wore guilt like a bad perfume.
The Actual Perpetrator: Gary Mendez
Yes, Gary did assault Peter Benoit, though the show wants us to believe he didn't kill him.
Must Read
The Guilt-Ridden: Maggie Bloom
Maggie's connection to Peter is fraught with complexity, adding layers of suspicion to the mix. Did she know more than she let on?
The Secret Keeper: Rome Howard
Rome, always the observer, the quiet one, might have been privy to information that could have altered the course of events. Could he have been an unknowing accomplice?

The Dark Horse Theories
Now, let’s move beyond the obvious and venture into the land of slightly-less-probable-but-way-more-fun theories! Because, let’s be honest, sometimes the most unexpected person is the culprit.
The Indirect Culprit: Barbara Morgan
Barbara Morgan's past with Peter casts a shadow over everything. Her actions indirectly led to the assault and therefore, death of Peter Benoit.

The Accidental Accessory: Eddie Saville
Eddie was dealing with his own demons, so who knows what kind of secrets he uncovered along the way? Was he unwittingly involved in Peter's demise?
The "Wait, What?" Conspiracy Theories
Alright, time to get wild. Put on your tinfoil hats, people! We're going full conspiracy.
The "It Was the City of Boston Itself" Theory
Okay, maybe not literally the city. But think about it: the stress, the pressure, the constant gray skies! Boston drove Peter to his end, indirectly!

The "Maybe It Was All a Dream" Theory
Hear me out: what if the entire show is just a collective dream of someone recovering from a really bad plate of clam chowder? If that's the case, the killer is… the clam chowder!
In the end, pinning down one single "killer" is like trying to herd cats in a hurricane. The truth, like most things in "A Million Little Things," is messy, complicated, and deeply rooted in the characters' relationships.

Was it Gary in the traditional sense? Yes. Was it also a culmination of everyone's actions, secrets, and baggage? Absolutely! That’s what makes the show so darn addictive!
So, there you have it! My highly-scientific, totally-not-made-up-after-binge-watching theories on who killed Peter Benoit. Now go forth and debate with your friends! (But please, no throwing clam chowder.)
