Mr. PeanutbutterWow, you're really in sync with this Justin guy! You should do all the things with him that I can't do like! Like eat chocolate or enjoy fireworks, or watch tennis. Why, tennis makes me so mad!! Why doesn't anyone catch the ball!?
Mr. Peanutbutter[claps slowly] Well, you pulled it off, ya deviant. Get it? D-viant?
I got it.
Mr. PeanutbutterTell me. How are you gonna complete your giant bracelet with the chain-link fence from Dodger Stadium?!
No! [beat] How'd you figure out it was me?
Mr. PeanutbutterOh, how did I figure it out? Well, I just followed the clues, used deduction, puzzle-solving, a little bit of forensics, and also, what did I do? Oh, I listened to the voicemail you left me saying you were stealing the D because of Diane so I could, and I quote, "Suck your D"!
Stop leaving voicemails!
Mr. PeanutbutterAdmit it! You like my girlfriend!
Oh, come on! I mean, am I attracted to her? Sure. Do my days feel better when I'm around her? Yeah. Does she get me in ways no woman ever has? Indubitably. Do I fantasize about her? Yes, but only in two positions. Look, am I the kind of guy who would try to steal someone else's girlfriend? Sure, of course, but do I like her? The answer's no. You have nothing to worry about.
Mr. PeanutbutterI'll cut you a deal. I help you get rid of that D, and you never talk to Diane again.
Well, I have to talk to her, 'cause she's writing my book.
Mr. PeanutbutterOkay. But just don't pursue her romantically? [BoJack exchange hands]
Deal.
Mr. PeanutbutterHa! I knew I'd get that handshake!
I regret this already.
[on Excess Hollywoo] I'm here with Hollywoo darling, Naomi Watts. Tell me, what attracted you to the role of Diane?
I just keep getting pigeonholed as these complex characters in highly acclaimed movies. For once, I would just love to phone it in and play a two-dimensional girl in a rom com with no inner life of her own. That's kind of the reason I got into this business.
Ha ha! You said words! Now, is it true you stay in character between takes?
Oh, we all do. The director insists upon it. He even has everyone calling me Diane to help me get in the headspace. It's been great.
[cutaway to kitchen with Quentin Tarantulino and Diane]
Diane! Lookin' good.
Um, thanks.
Ugh, not you. I was talking to Diane. [referring to Watts]
Oh, thank you.
Now, where's my peanut butter?
Mr. PeanutbutterRight over here, Q.
No, I'm looking for peanut butter.
Mr. PeanutbutterOh, you mean BoJack?
If I wanted BoJack, I would call BoJack. [Wallace Shawn comes in dressed as BoJack]
Did someone call for BoJack? [cut back to Watts and Seacrest Type]
It really cuts down on confusion.
Mr. PeanutbutterUm... do you want to talk about what happened?
What happened? No. I don't want to talk about what happened. I just want to clean up.
Mr. PeanutbutterOkay.
Why, what do you think happened?
Mr. PeanutbutterI just...
Because what I think happened is that BoJack's girlfriend asked what Tony Curtis was up to, and I said Tony Curtis died.
Mr. PeanutbutterUh...
And you said, "Did he?"
Mr. PeanutbutterRight, but...
And I said, "Yes, he did." And you said "Really? I'm not sure about that."
Mr. PeanutbutterYeah.
And I said, "Well I am." And you said, "I'm not so sure."
Mr. PeanutbutterUh huh.
And I said, "I'm telling you, Tony Curtis is dead." And you said, "Let's check the internet!"
Mr. PeanutbutterNo, I know, but...
And I said, "We don't need to check the internet, I'm telling you, he's dead." And you said, "Let's just check though."
[breaks plate in half]
Is that what you think happened?
Mr. PeanutbutterSo, do you want to talk about it? Because it kind of feels like you want to talk about it.
Mr. Peanutbutter[to BoJack in the rain live on-show] All I ever wanted was to be your friend... and you treat me like a big joke. You think I don't notice? Why don't you like me?
Mr. Peanutbutter—
Mr. PeanutbutterNo, tell me.
..Because... I'm jealous.
Mr. PeanutbutterUgh, of what? Diane?
No. O-of everything. Everything comes so easy for you.
Mr. PeanutbutterOh, and it doesn't for you? You're a millionaire movie star with a girlfriend who loves you, acting in your dream movie. What more do you want? What else could the universe possibly owe you?
I... want to feel good about myself... the way you do. And I don't know how. I don't know if I can.
[holds an umbrella] Whoa, guys, this is getting a little heavy, don't we think?
I'm sorry, Mr. Peanutbutter. I can't tell you how sorry I am.
Mr. PeanutbutterWow, um... I don't know if I can forgive you. But I guess we'll find out right after this break!
[Mr. Peanutbutter talks to Diane on the phone, unaware that she's crashing in BoJack's house]
Mr. PeanutbutterLet me talk to one of the locals! I want to hear someone else talk about what a selfless hero my wife is!
Oh, uhh...
Mr. PeanutbutterAw, now come on!
[gets off the couch] Most of the refugees got their tongues cut out.
Mr. PeanutbutterFind one with a tongue!
I don't think that's really--
Mr. PeanutbutterIndulge me!
Okay... [in a softer voice] Hello... I am refugee from village.
Mr. PeanutbutterHey, what's your name, superstar?
[walks to the kitchen] Uh... my name is...
[Diane sees a Skørmpf blender, an eBain water bottle and a Biatelli coffee maker]
..Coffee Maker? [slaps herself and grunts]
Mr. PeanutbutterAh, Kofi Makir? Am I pronouncing that right?
First things first! Don't go back in the house.
Mr. PeanutbutterSadly, you can call me LL Cool J because I am in the house.
It smells like a skunk skunked a skunk and then smoked a joint! What happened?
Mr. PeanutbutterWell, first I rolled all over the couch to get the skunk stench out, but that did not work. So then I ran into every room to rub myself on all my clothes and belongings, you know, to get the Mr. Peanutbutter scent back.
And then I smoked a joint.
Mr. PeanutbutterDiane, where the hell are you?
Ojai.
Mr. PeanutbutterOh, hi? You've been gone all night and all you have to say is "oh, hi?"
Turns out there's a huge market for a safe space for women!
Mr. PeanutbutterWho knew?
Mr. PeanutbutterHe's probably just razzin' ya. But he's a good dog. All bark, no bite. Oh, sorry! That's a labrador expression. I guess in human terms it would be: he's all talk, no shooting you with an assault rifle.
Is that what you think humans do?
Mr. PeanutbutterAm I wrong?
Mr. PeanutbutterWhy are we at a bar?
We're just celebrating getting Doll back!
Mr. PeanutbutterYou don't wanna bring the doll back to your mom?
I will! We're just having a drink first! Relax!
Mr. PeanutbutterOkay...
[thinking to himself] He knows you're terrible. He's the biggest idiot in the world and even HE knows you're terrible!
Mr. PeanutbutterSo when did you get a daughter? She's new, right? Or was she always part of the gang?
I met her about a month ago.
Mr. PeanutbutterWhoa!
Yeah. And it was great at first. But now I feel her getting attached, and I just know I'm gonna BoJack things up.
Mr. Peanutbutter"BoJack things up"? You mean, show up somewhere and be the life of the party? And then share a laugh with your good friend Mr. Peanutbutter?
No, obviously I meant screw everything up until she hates me. I don't think I can take that.
Mr. PeanutbutterWell, maybe this time, don't do the thing that makes her hate you.
I don't want to, but every time she looks at me with those big innocent eyes, all I can think about is every shitty thing I've ever done, and I think, "I don't deserve that kind of love".
Mr. PeanutbutterLook, BoJack. I don't know a lot about balancing a state budget, or how a bill becomes a law.
Uh...
Mr. PeanutbutterI don't know a lot about a lot of things! But I do know this: everybody deserves to be loved.
Mr. PeanutbutterBesides, I'm really trying to focus on myself right now. One day in therapy, I just blurted out: "Is my problem with women, any movie directed by Christopher Nolan? Because yes, women are involved, but it's never really about the women. It's about me.
That's actually somewhat astute.
Mr. PeanutbutterIt occured to me: Are my self destructive patterns and unexamined cycles of co-dependency the popular Jim Carrey character 'The Mask'? Because 'Somebody stop me!'.
Are all of your breakthroughs phrased like that?
Mr. PeanutbutterUm, are all of my breakthroughs a British Prog-Rock Band from the 70s? Because 'Yes'.
----
Yeah, well, what are you gonna do? Life's a bitch and then you die, right?
Sometimes. Sometimes life's a bitch and then you keep living.
Yeah.
But it's the nice night, huh?
Yeah. This is nice.
