When BoJack fled L.A. once again, he found himself in Michigan rather than New Mexico. His Oscar shortcomings, and his struggles to deal with Sarah-Lynn’s death, drove him to the Old Sugarman Place, where he spent his summers as a kid.

The house was dilapidated, and BoJack woke up on the floor of the living room covered in frost thanks to the broken door. Thankfully, his new neighbour, Eddie the dragonfly, was incredibly handy, and helped out. In a way, this was more for his own sanity than anything else.

He had never recovered from the death of his wife, something for which he had always blamed himself. He had flashbacks when he flew BoJack high enough to risk being caught in a plane engine like his Lorraine was, before he plummeted down to the lake. BoJack dragged him out, but Eddie wasn’t grateful.

He had never been the same without Lorraine, and kept their room exactly the same since she died, including her dressing gown and slippers. He didn’t want to be saved. He didn’t want to live. He put on a brave face while working on the house with BoJack, but deep down he wanted his life and the pain it brought him every day to end.
