Peter Wolfe is the son of George and Virginia Wolfe, a suburban dysfunctional family of wolves. His angry father George disapproves of Peter's lifestyle choices, including dropping out of school and being a cheerleader and ballerina who wears dresses for each. Peter is very deadpan and sarcastic. Virginia is a lot more passive and does not openly disapprove of Peter's choices. Peter is close with his sister Cindy who is melodramatic and always accuses her family of fighting.
