Peppers pods taking after their native parent or the pollen provider?

I'm just wondering, when crossing two different varieties, like a habanero-type chinense and a jalapeño-type annuum, what would the pods on a jalapeño parent as the mother and the adjuma as father look like?
Like a jalapeño or like an adjuma?
I'm not talking about the pods from the plants from the hybrid seeds, but the pods where the F1 hybrid seeds are contained.
Because I am going to make the jalapeño stamen be the recipients of the adjuma pollen.

the pods coming from the mother will still be jalapeno pods.

The pods will look the same no matter who provided the pollen, all though a bad pollination can cause smaller pods. It is only the seeds that contains DNA from the father.

Thanks for the answer.
I thought that the parent would be the pod provider.
