Having not seen the episode, it depends on Pete's framing. If it's "Bojack got Maddie sent to the hospital" then it's Never My Fault. If it's "Bojack's influence led to things getting out of control and her going to the hospital" then it's not the case.
Or rather, "Bojack got us drunk" vs. "Bojack helped us get drunk."
Pete and Maddie absolutely have responsibility. Bojack just has way more. If he pins it all on Bojack, then I'd say it applies.

He explicitly says it's not his, not Maddie's, not the alcohol's fault, but 100% Bojack's. He also says that Bojack "practically forced them" to drink the bourbon, which is true in an Obi-Wan kinda way because they wanted to drink and IIRC wanted Bojack's help on it, but they just didn't want bourbon.

On this
recap page for an episode of Bojack Horseman, there's an edit war for a Never My Fault entry. For context, one episode of the series has Bojack hanging out with some teenagers on their prom night. He gives them alcohol, but when one gets alcohol poisoning, he convinces her boyfriend not to tell where the alcohol came from and left them by themselves. In the latest season, the boyfriend, Pete, returns again and recounts the story to Bojack's sister, Hollyhock.
A Never My Fault entry was originally added, stating that Pete put the blame solely on Bojack despite the fact that Pete gladly encouraged them drinking. Ben Beasted removed it with the edit reason "Just because they were already drinking doesn't absolve Bo Jack of responsibility. He wen out of his way to get harder alcohol and left both of them behind at the hospital." Chubzac, the original poster, re-added it with the edit reason, "Just because Bojack holds some responsibility doesn't mean Pete and Maddie aren't also at fault. They were already drinking before Bojack met them and willingly chose to drink the alcohol Bojack bought them. Pete is twisting facts about Bojack forcing them to drink Bourbon against their will."
Personally I think this is more a YMMV response of Pete being portrayed as faultless, since the episode itself doesn't seem to point any blame on him. This reception happened before when Diane accused Bojack of taking advantage of Sarah Lynn. It's under Unintentionally Unsympathetic for the episode, for the record. In any case, should they be alerted for edit-warring?
