Warning: Spoilers
Beatrice has died and BoJack is looking for resolution: His eulogy quickly turns into an attempt to make sense not only of her last words but of their relationship altogether. Though the show has spent quite some time on BoJack's messed up childhood and his mother in particular it again finds new facets of the Horseman family relationships. BoJack looks back at his mother, his parent's relationship, his father's death, trying to find some kind of inisght, only to realize things will never be resolved.

Will Arnett has always impressed as BoJack but this episode might be his best performance yet. Arnett masterfully portrays BoJacks messed up state of mind: his anger and resentment for his mother, his pain and helplessness faced with the fact that his mother didn't love him, his resignation upon realizing there will never be any kind of resolution or reconciliation.
