The pale young gentleman is a strange character, first he wants to fight Pip for no apparent reason until Pip accepts and he loses, and that is all Pip knows of him until years later when they meet again and the pale young gentleman is an adult, his name is Herbert Pocket, and they get along very well, they even become best friends. Herbert helps Pip improve his table manners but he <u>doesn't</u> mock him and he is <u>not</u> an antagonist, just a kid who wants to fight. The information he later gives to pip is <u>not</u> to convince him Miss Havisham is his benefactor.  

In the first appearance his inclusion is only to make the reader wonder if the fight will actually happen. <em>The correct answer C.)</em>
