===== Biography =====

Petey and his wife, [[Nina]], were separated,(([[https://youtu.be/A09IBNdkAPY?t=462|Davidson, Denton (May 6, 2022). “Yul Vazquez (‘Severance’) on ‘dream’ role of Petey.” Gold Derby.]])) presumably before he joined Lumon. It is speculated that the divorce led to him choosing to become severed.((Season 1, Episode 4, [[The You You Are]] ([[the_you_you_are_transcript#section003031708|30:31]]) ))

Petey was the first person to undergo [[Reintegration]], an experimental procedure where the [[Severance chip]] no longer separates one’s memories. A successful Reintegration enables the individual to remember and have access to both their Innie and Outie experiences. Going to work with his memories intact allowed Petey to make a [[Petey’s map|map]] of the [[Severed Floor]] on the back of one of the [[Group Photo|group photos]] and leave it for Mark to later discover.

Petey later collapsed at a [[Midday Star|convenience store]] and died soon after, possibly from Reintegration sickness. Petey was 52 years old when he died, according to the Kier Chronicle article. He is survived by a daughter, [[June Kilmer|June]].

===== Trivia =====

  * During his brief stay at [[Mark Scout|Mark]]’s home, Petey tells Mark, “We had a joke that you had an elevator allergy. There was even a song for it.”((Season 1, Episode 3, [[In Perpetuity]] ([[in_perpetuity_transcript#section001020495|10:20]]) )) The song is never sung on-screen. However, Hayley Erickson Goelzer, the sister of //[[Severance (TV show)|Severance]]// creator Dan Erickson, tweeted a screenshot of a text message she attributed to her brother, containing what the message’s sender (named “Dan”) says are “the canonical lyrics to the elevator allergy song.”
