You think Pletcher just wanted to see what BC would look like with socks?
BTW, do you really think Pletcher worked hard to get where he's at? He walked out of Waynes barn and had horses waiting for him. Yeah, that's real tough. And I've seen how Lukas' assistants work. The only thing they worry about is hearing Wayne scream at them every now and then. I've seen outfits ten times tougher to work for than his.
