Whether it’s them becoming a doctor, or a lawyer, or a firefighter, or racecar driver, or a professional football player, a professional wrestler. Life kicks you in the teeth enough times to where you give up on ’em. And I think that the depiction that’s going to come across. It’s going to run the gambit of every demographic can see a little bit of themselves and probably one character or another.
