Peter "Pink-Eye Pete" Ogilvy is a boy who attends seventh grade at Hazelnut Middle School and a recurring character in Pepper Ann.
He perpetually suffers from conjunctivits, better known as pink eye, hence his nickname. In "The Way They Were", he mentions that the doctor said his pink eye would be gone in "two weeks, tops". A running gag throughout the series is that Pete is often seen using items that he has to put up to his eye (binoculars; opera glasses; camera; telescope; kaleidoscope; etc.), which he then offers to other characters, oblivious to the fact that he's left pus behind on the item.
In "Dear Debby", it is revealed the Pepper Ann inadvertently caused Pete to get pink eye when they were younger, because she told him to go have the nurse look at his hangnail, failing to notice that the nurse's office was currently under quarantine for pink eye.
Unlike many other characters (e.g. Alice Kane, Gwen Mezzrow, Stewart Walldinger), Pete's last name is only mentioned in one episode, when the photographer calls Pete to take his yearbook picture in "Ziterella".
In "The Finale," the bulk of which is a flash-forward to fifteen years in the future, it is revealed that eventually, Pink-Eye Pete's pink eye does indeed clear up. He is briefly shown at the reunion with no pink eye (but an excellent mustache).
