16. Nice While It Lasted

Complete story — includes the ending

BoJack's career ended after he is found by the new owners of his old house and sentenced to fourteen months in prison for breaking and entering, where he begins staging theatrical productions with the inmates. He is allowed one day of release for Princess Carolyn and Judah's wedding, and is taken by Mr. Peanutbutter, who finally replaces the "D" on the Hollywood Sign but accidentally replaces it with a "B". He reveals to BoJack that he has been going to therapy and has broken his cycle of forcing himself into relationships. Todd takes BoJack for a walk on the beach when he gets to the wedding and tells him that he is finally forming a relationship with Helen, and that all he had to do was strive to make the change he wanted. BoJack dances with Princess Carolyn as they reminisce on what he would do if she did not want to get married, and she promises to help him find a good agent if he decides to return to the industry. He finds Diane on the roof, where she reveals he left her a drunken voicemail the night he tried to commit suicide blaming her for not picking up the phone, and that it almost ended her relationship with Guy, but she instead moved to Houston and married him. As they acknowledge that this will likely be their last conversation, BoJack tells her a story from prison which ended with him unhappy, and muses that the point of life is that it is hard and then you die. Diane counters that the point is that it is hard and then you keep living. They agree that it is a nice night and look up at the stars together.
