Did he also get taller? It says he's 6'2" tall but he looks about 6' 3 1/2" tall in the mugshot. Does Bubba already have him in heels? MOO

Remarkable difference between his first mugshot, where he was putting on his best innocent bewildered cowpoke look, and this new look.
Someone I knew a long time ago would say PF looks like a guy who is 'playing the role'. I think that's true. I think PF sat out on the franch and played roles in his mind and eventually online where he could be anyone he said he was. He could act out all his fantasies. He could play head games with people to watch their reactions and pain - like a nasty little boy pulling wings off flies or throwing puppies in the river to watch them struggle and suffer.
I am genuinely curious to see what 'role' he's going to play in prison. He didn't seem to see any inconsistencies with telling a fellow inmate that he was a totally clueless innocent loving dad who not only wanted to hire a hit man, he also thought the gang could benefit from his experience and local knowledge.
I can't see him emulating CW and admitting what he did. If he ever does admit to it, I believe he will claim a form of self-defense - he will blame it all on KB for not just giving him Baby K and paying for Baby K's medical and otherwise getting out of his life. You know, it was all her fault and he was a patient tolerant cowboy, but what's a guy to do? He's more likely to admit it to the right inmate than anyone on the other side of the bars, though.
I think he's been a seldom-challenged manipulator for years, but he's a small fish in a small pond. He's going to find out he's not as clever as he thought and he's also going to find out how it feels to be a victim. I think he's spent his life strutting around and thinking he was the alpha male. I think he's going to be meeting some real alpha males and I am curious whether he will roll over and surrender or if he will stand up like the big boy he is (at least when confronted with animals or unarmed blindfolded women half his size).
